  Recently, I heard a touching story which illustrates the   1   that words have to change a life-a power that lies right in the hands of those reading this article.

  Mary had grown up knowing that she was different from the other kids, and she hated it.She was born with a cleft palate(先天性颚裂)and had to bear the jokes and   2   of cruel children who teased her non-stop about her   3   lip and unclear speech.She was   4   that no one, outside her family, could ever love her   5   she entered Mrs.Leonard’s class.

  In the 1950’s, it was common for teachers to give their children a(n)  6   hearing test.However, in Mary’s   7  , in addition to her cleft palate, she was   8   able to hear out of one ear.  9   not to let the other children have another “  10  ” to point out, she would   11   on the test each year.The “whisper test” was given by having a child walk to the classroom door, turn sideways, close one ear with a finger, and then   12   something which the teacher whispered.Mary turned her bad ear towards her teacher and   13   to cover her good ear.She knew that teachers would often say things like, “The sky is blue.” or “What color are your shoes?” But not on that day.Surely, God put seven words in Mrs.Leonard’s mouth that   14   Mary’s life forever.When the “Whisper test” came, Mary heard the words:“ I wish you were my little girl.”

  Words from a godly teacher can   15   a heart and powerfully set the course of a life.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Targeting teens

  But using the Web also makes teens a target.Posting too much personal information for those millions of cyber eyes to see can cause some big problems and can even invite a threat to your life.

  As Mary learned, not everyone on the Internet is who he or she says they are.Adults will sometimes pose as other teens, posting fake photos and nice messages to gain trust.They use their fake identity to access the personal information of others, such as home address, phone number, or school name.

  "That's not the most common scenario", says David Finkelhor, a sociology professor at the University of New Hampshire."Only 3 percent of teens aged 10 to 18 who use the Internet report being asked to meet offline.But the danger is real.

  Safety measures

  Mary's My Space profile is set to "private", which means that only the people she adds under the "friend" category can access her page.She also doesn't have any pictures of herself on her site.The only self-identifying material she has posted is her name, grade, and a list of hobbies.

  "People can only add me if they know my last name or my e-mail, "Mary says." I don't want random people to see my profile.I just go online to talk to my friends."

  Stay safe and have fun online

  Experts say almost 90 percent of U.S.Teens are online.But not everyone knows how to surf the Web in a smart way.With these tips, you can have fun, stay safe, and avoid embarrassment!

  Pick a safe password.Make sure your password is something that other people won't be able to guess.Use numbers in between letters."spar123ky" is better than "sparky 123."

  Pick a safe username.Make sure yours doesn't say too much about you, "Happygirl13" is better than "AliceWaters13." Don't include your name, age, or where you are from.Never tell a stranger your name, school, address, age, birthday, phone number, or friends' names.

(1)

Who is most likely to be a victim online?

[  ]

A.

A liar.

B.

A teenager.

C.

A stranger.

D.

An honest person.

(2)

In Mary's opinion, ________.

[  ]

A.

one shouldn't trust everyone online

B.

one shouldn't trust anyone online

C.

there are many liars online

D.

all people online pretend to be others

(3)

One of the safety measures mentioned in the passage is that ________.

[  ]

A.

one should not chat with strangers

B.

one should not post his or her photos online

C.

one should tell his parents about strange information

D.

one should keep his web as a secret

(4)

Why are numbers used when we pick a safe password?

[  ]

A.

Numbers are easy to write.

B.

Using numbers are cool online.

C.

The safe password is more unlikely to be guessed.

D.

Numbers are popular online.
