Tyler was born infected with HIV and his mother was also infected. From the very beginning of his life, he was dependent on medications (药物) to enable him to survive. When he was five, he had a tube surgically(外科手术上) inserted in a vein(静脉) in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back. Medications were connected to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream. At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.
Tyler wasn't willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his backpack and dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon(小推车). All of us who knew Tyler were amazed at his pure joy in being alive and the energy it gave him. Tyler's mom often made jokes on him by telling him that he moved so fast she needed to dress him in red. That way, when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard, she could quickly spot him.
This terrible disease eventually wore him down. He grew quite ill and, unfortunately, so did his HIV-infected mother. When it became clear that he wasn't going to survive, Tyler's mom talked to him about death. She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying too, and that she would be with him soon in heaven.
A few days before his death, Tyler beckoned(召唤) me over to his hospital bed and whispered, "I might die soon. I'm not scared. When I die, please dress me in red. Mom promised she's coming to heaven, too. I'll be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me."
1.Why did Tyler wear a backpack on his back when he was young?
A. Because his mother gave it to him as a gift.
B. Because he had no right to choose but to wear it.
C. Because he wanted to be different from the other kids.
D. Because there was a pump in it, which could help with his disease.
2.Tyler asked the writer to dress him in red when he died in order to ________.
A. show red is his favorite color.
B. see the writer again in the hospital.
C. make his mother recognize him easily.
D. persuade his mother to keep her promise.

Inside the Rain Room
The Rain Room has arrived and local art lovers are taking notice. Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling.

And visitors aren’t getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.

The demands of the modern world are growing day by day and this is putting more pressure on scientists to do research. However, as stated by Griffiths, “There is no hope of doing perfect research”. Naturally, there have been a lot of criticisms (批评), as many scientists immediately announce that their research methods are very safe and that they have the perfect research theory (理论).
However, scientific history is filled with examples, in which a perfect scientific solution that was based on decades of scientific research has been overturned (推翻) with new theories. Naturally the first example that comes to mind is the fact that Newton’s Theories were thought to be very safe and they were used in all fields of science. For centuries, thousands of scientists around the world used Newton’s Theories to formulate (规划) other theories.
However, after nearly two centuries of use, Newton’s Theories were found to be not as perfect as they were thought. Through Einstein’s publication on the General Theory of Relativity, it was found that Newton’s laws were imperfect in explaining all motions (运动) that were taking place in our universe. It was found to be imperfect under some conditions, even though, Newton’s laws are still used today to predict motion at low speeds.
Thus, perfect research is only a myth (神话). Of course, this does not mean that a scientist should simply give up and accept imperfection in his or her research efforts. Improvements and changes in research techniques and methods are a natural part of evolution (进化) and it is each scientist’s responsibility to take it forward as much as possible.
While the final answer to the universe’s questions may never exist, a time will come when there will be fewer questions as new answers are found and more improved research is carried out by scientists around the world.
1.Why have there been a lot of criticisms?
A. The modern world demands mor e and more.
B. Scientists have a negative attitude.
C. Many scientists arrive at their conclusions (结论) too fast.
D. Griffiths does not believe what scientists say.
2.Through the publication of the General Theory of Relativity, Newton’s Theories turned out to be ______.
A. not so perfect B. completely wrong C. very safe D. very exact
3.What will scientists do to deal with the “imperfectness” problem?
A. Accept the fact and give up.
B. Improve and change their methods and techniques.
C. Try their best to carry out the perfect study.
D. Ignore it and do as they please.
4.We can learn from the last paragraph that ______.
A. the universe’s questions are sure to have a final answer
B. the number of questions is sure to increase with the passing of time
C. scientists are carrying out improved studies
D. there will be more scientists in the world in the future

However, it isn’t helpful either in this case when parents lectures(训斥), blame and shame to what the child is experiencing. Mothers to say, “Stop crying and acting like a spoiled boy. You can’t always get what you want.” These words should be avoided.
