Dear Mr. Shyamalan,
According to the box office, congratulations are in order. It seems your new movie, Split, is doing gangbusters. That means millions of people all over the world have seen or will soon see your story about a man who is suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).
As much as I'm rooting for you as an artist, Mr. Shyamalan, personally, I think you climbed to success on the overburdened backs of the mentally ill.
As a person who suffers from multiple(多面的)personalities, as well as a psychologist with professional knowledge and skills in the subject, I feel it is my duty to school you in a few facts: People who suffer from DID are not, generally speaking, scary or cheating. We are normal people who silently suffer from a painful condition in which our sense of who we are feels divided into broken parts. Our condition is often caused by a history of severe and repeated child abuse(虐待). In truth, we are victims(受害者) of unimaginable violence.
With the release of your movie, you have become my bully(恃强凌弱者). I am personally harmed by the absurd fixed image you use in Split. Your description of Kevin Crumb as one gender confused, cross-dressing multiple with a strong liking for violence has the same effect as shouting across the playground, “People with DID are dangerous nut jobs!”
I have lived for years with the shame created by movies such as yours. Despite being a successful doctor who runs a charity for adult survivors of child abuse, I live with constant anxiety that people will learn of my diagnosis(诊断). For no matter how long I’ve known someone or how highly they think of me, once they know I'm a multiple, the reaction is imaginable.
In the future, I’d appreciate it if you stopped using our pain and suffering as materials for your entertainment.
Michelle Stevens
1.What does the author think of Shyamalan’s success?
A. He was very fortunate. B. He deserved it.
C. His efforts were worthwhile. D. He got it in an immoral way.
2.What’s the probable cause of DID?
A. Poor living conditions. B. Extreme anxiety from life.
C. Tense relations among people. D. Being badly treated in childhood.
3.Who is Kevin Crumb according to the text?
A. A friend of Mr. Shyamalan’s.
B. A character in Split.
C. A patient of Michelle Stevens’s.
D. A psychologist with multiple personalities.
4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To give the movie Split a review.
B. To show respect for people with DID.
C. To state that the movie Split hurt people with DID.
D. To argue that people with DID can make a difference.

Throw out the bottles and boxes of drugs in your house. A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your health. This new theory argues that healing (the process of becoming healthy and strong again) is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Reiki on a regular basis.
Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Reiki, Yoga, Tai Chi. These waste our time, something that is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain and x-rays that show us our broken bones. We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some "everyday complaints" such as back pains, headaches, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become dependent on them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money but never get better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Reiki to yourself, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Also, there are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.
They also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Reiki make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair and weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries.
Some people may still hold that in our material world, everything depends on time. How would it be possible to find time to do Reiki? In fact, Reiki does not require more than 15 minutes of our time. It is less time consuming than medicine if we think of all the time we spend taking medicine for some complaints and taking some more for the side effects as well.

A. disinterested B. serious
C. positive D. doubtful
2.According to the passage, which of the statements is correct?
A. Reiki will soon become the most popular exercise around the world.

Coffee drink is widespread. When people argue about whether coffee is good for health, they’re usually thinking of the health of the coffee drinker. Is it good for your heart? Does it increase blood pressure? Does it help you concentrate? However, coffee affects the health of the human population in other ways, too.
Traditionally, coffee bushes were planted under the shade of taller trees. However, more and more farmers in Latin America are deforesting the land to grow full sun coffees. At first, this increases production because more coffee bushes can be planted if there aren’t any trees. With increased production come increased profits.
Unfortunately, deforesting for coffee production immediately decreases the local wildlife habitat, because native birds nest and hide from predators(捕食者)in the tall trees and migrating birds rest there.
Furthermore, in the long term, the full-sun method also damages the ecosystem because more chemical fertilizers and pesticides(杀虫剂)are needed to grow the coffee. The fertilizers and pesticides kill insects that eat coffee plant, and then the birds eat the poisoned insects and also die. The chemicals kill or sicken other animals as well, and can even enter the water that people will eventually drink.
Fortunately, farmers in Central and South America are beginning to grow more coffee bushes in the shade. We can support these farmers by buying coffee with such labels as "shade-grown" and "bird-friendly".
Sure, these varieties might cost a little more. But we're paying for the health of the birds, the land, ourselves, and the planet. I think it’s worth it.
1.Which opinion does the author agree with?
A. People should buy full-sun coffee.
B. Shade-grown coffee should be supported.
C. Farmers should change the places to grow coffee.
D. Pesticides should be forbidden in coffee planting.
2.Compared with the traditional method, what advantage does the full-sun method have?
A. It can protect the ecosystem.
B. It can promote people's health.
C. It can provide mare nests for birds.
D. It can increase the production of coffee.
3.How do farmers get more land to grow full-sun coffee?
A. They cut down trees.
B. They move to other countries.
C. They turn grassland into farmland.
D. They buy more land from other farmers.
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A. It is quite worthwhile to buy shade-grown coffee at any cost.
B. Farmers all have realized the importance of protecting the environment now.
C. South American farmers are taking action to plant coffee in the traditional way.
D. The full-sun method does good to the health of human beings in the long run.
