I have noticed this tendency in me for a long time now, 9 I have never been able to stop. I did some 10 management work with a therapist(治疗专家) a while ago, but because I moved and 11 an advisor at school who can’t see me 12, I have not been able to continue this important work. They tell you to stop and count to 10, 13 your breathing, calm yourself down before you 14. But that’s the whole problem. I could never think of 15 myself until it was too late! The 16 things had already come out of my mouth, and I was stuck picking up the pieces.
Right now the 17 is urgent because my relationships with a wonderful boy is 18 because of my being afraid of being wrong. He is closing himself off from me because I have hurt him, and 19 I am no longer attractive as a woman with no confidence in myself and a bad temper. How do I stop ruining my relationships and hating myself? How do I stop 20 being wrong?

I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and1asking for help. After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not2them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step3on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I4something. “I’m awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been5to a lamppost. This was just one of the6things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop7passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated 8I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would9a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to 10my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
11on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them12making a fool of myself. I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

One of the most famous nursery rhymes(摇篮曲) in the English language is Mary Had a Little Lamb(羔羊). It has touched many children who have read it. It is about the deep love between a young girl and her pet lamb. The poem is from a true story that happened in the early part of the 19th century in the town of Sterling, Massachusetts, in the USA.
Mary Sawyer (1806-1889) lived on a farm with her family. One day, when she was about nine years old, she saw a little lamb that had just been born and left behind by its mother. It was very weak and looked as if it would die at very moment. Mary took pity on the lamb and spent the whole night looking after it. Eventually, it grew strong and became a very close friend with Mary, following her everywhere she went.
One day, the lamb even followed Mary to school. At first she wanted to turn it back but her brother suggested that it would be fun to take the lamb to school. During the class, she hid the lamb under her desk. But when she was called to go to the front of the class, to her surprise, the lamb followed her. Though the students and the teacher thought it was funny to see a lamb at school, the teacher had to ask Mary to keep the lamb outside of the school.
That very day, a young man called John Roulstone was visiting Mary’s school. He was so moved by the love between the child and her little pet lamb that he wrote a poem which he handed to Mary the next day. His poem contained twelve lines.
Later, Sara Josepha Hale added another twelve lines to the poem and published it in 1930 under the title “Mary Had a Little Lamb”. The poem has become a classic, loved by children all over the world. The appeal (吸引力) of the poem lies not only in the funny idea of a sheep going to school but also in the true love between the little girl and her pet. The town of Sterling has honoured Mary’s lamb by building a statue (雕像) of the lamb with Mr Roulstone’s poem below the statue.

As many as one in five US teenagers have some degree of hearing loss, according to researchers. They say the problem is growing.
“Teenagers really don’t pay attention to how much noise they are exposed to(接触),” Josef Shargorodsky of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston told Reuters. “Often people won’t notice it, but even very little hearing loss may influence language development,” said Shargorodsky, one of the researchers.
The study compared surveys from the early 1990s and the mid-2000s. Each included a few thousand teenagers. In the first survey, about 15 percent of teenagers had some degree of hearing loss. Some 15 years later, that number had risen by a third, to nearly 20 percent.
“This certainly is big news,” said Alison Grimes, an ear doctor. “Hearing loss is very common in old people,” Grimes said, but she added that it was worrying to see it happen in the younger age group.
In babies and young children, hearing problems are known to slow language development. The science is less clear for teenagers, but it is easy to imagine how being hard of hearing could influence learning, said Grimes.
The reasons for the rise are still unclear. When researchers asked teenagers about noise exposure – on the job, at school or from activities, for example – the teenagers didn’t report any change. But Shargorodsky said that might not be true. “We know from before that it is difficult to ask this age group about noise exposure – they underestimate it.” Few people would call it noise when they listen to music on their MP3 player, for example. “There is a difference between what we think is loud and what is harmful to the ear,” said Grimes.
Although it’s not clear that the MP3 players cause teenagers’ hearing loss, Grimes said it was still a good idea to turn down the sound and take short breaks from listening.

  1. 1.

    The writer advises teenagers __________.

    1. A.
      to turn the sound down
    2. B.
      to stop using MP3 players
    3. C.
      to be clear about the problem
    4. D.
      to report the change in hearing loss
  2. 2.

    The underlined sentence “they underestimate it” means __________.

    1. A.
      their love for music prevent them realizing the harm
    2. B.
      their hearing loss is happening without being noticed
    3. C.
      they think music can be taken as noise to some degree
    4. D.
      they think it’s harmful sometimes although it’s not loud
  3. 3.

    Which of the following is true according to the passage?

    1. A.
      Hearing loss may lead to slow language development.
    2. B.
      Hearing loss in old people is as common as in young people.
    3. C.
      Researchers have already found some causes of hearing loss.
    4. D.
      Teenagers know MP3 is harmful, but they can’t stop listening to it.
  4. 4.

    What is the best title for the passage?

    1. A.
      A word short and simple
    2. B.
