The dream of my travel was to be Paristhe city I'd always longed to see But now I was frightened to travel without a companionI steeled myself and went anywayI arrived at the train station in Paris panickedPulling my red suitcase behind meI was pushed by sweaty travelers . On my first Metro ride, I encountered a clumsy pickpocketI melted him with a lookand he eased his hand from my purse to fade into the crowded car. At my stopI carried my heavy suitcase up the steep stairs and froze in confusionSomewhere in this confusing city my hotel was hiddenbut suddenly I couldnt read my own directionsI stopped two peopleBoth greeted me with that Parisian face that said"Yes, I speak Englishbut you'll have to struggle with your French if you want to talk to me."

    During my week's stay in ParisI did everything there was to doand it was the greatest week of my European vacationI returned home a believer in the healing power of solitary travelTraveling alone makes up for its problems by demanding selfreliance and building the kind of confidence that serves the single life wellCertainly Paris became my metaphor(比喻说法)for addressing life's challenges on my ownNow when I meet an obstacle I just say to myself: If I can go to ParisI can go anywhere

 Different kinds of soil conservation methods are used by farmers to protect their land from damage by farming and the forces of nature. One important form of soil conservation is the use of windbreaks.

Windbreaks are barriers (屏障) formed by trees and other plants with many leaves. Farmers plant them in lines around their fields. Windbreaks stop the wind from blowing soil away. They also keep the wind from destroying or damaging crops. They are very important for growing grains, such as wheat.

There have been studies done on windbreaks in parts of West Africa, for example. They found that grain harvests can be twenty percent higher in fields protected by windbreaks compared to fields without such protection.

However, windbreaks seem to work best when they allow a little wind to pass through. If the wall of trees and plants stops wind completely, then violent air motions will take place close to the ground. These motions will lift soil into the air where it will be blown away. For this reason, a windbreak is best if it has only sixty to eighty percent of the trees and plants needed to make a solid line.

There should be at least two lines in each windbreak. One line should be large trees. The second line, right next to it, can be shorter trees and other plants with leaves. Locally grown trees and plants are best for windbreaks.

8.  What is a windbreak according to the passage?

A. A windbreak is a concrete wall to prevent the strong winds.

B. A windbreak is a wood with different kinds of trees.

C. A windbreak is a wall of trees to hold soil in place.

D. A windbreak is a wall of wind to fight wind from the opposite way.

9. When can windbreaks be most effective?

A. The trees are planted one by one.

B. The trees and plants grow in a line.

C. The trees grow as high as they can.

D. Windbreaks allow a little wind to blow through.

10. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. A windbreak is one of the best forms of soil conversation?

B. A windbreak is very good for growing grains such as wheat.

C. One line of trees is enough for soil protection.

D. Locally grown trees and plants are the top choice for a windbreak.

An American psychotherapist (理疗家) Glenn Doman wrote a best-selling book called How to Teach Your Baby to Read in 1963. Now translated into 17 languages, this book arose from his work with brain-damaged children in Pennsylvania. Doman and his team of specialists had wondered why brain-injured children didn't improve with treatment. Then they realized that orthodox(传统的) methods of treatment only relieved the symptoms, not the problem, which of course was the brain itself. So they develop a new approach. "All we do for all the children here is to give them visual, auditory (听觉的) and tactile (触觉的) stimulation with increased frequency, intensity and duration, in recognition of the orderly way in which the brain grows," says Doman. "The result was that by 1960 we had hundreds of severely brain-injured two-year-olds who could read and understand." The team had discovered that even children who had half their brains removed could, by stimulation, achieve higher IQs than the average normal child.

    Then the team began to think if such amazing results could be achieved with brain-damaged children, what would happen if the same treatment were given to normal children? So eight years ago the Better Baby Institute was opened for the benefit of normal children. The same stimulating environment was provided, and by the time the children left, around seven years old, they could generally speak and read three foreign languages, play a musical instrument, read three full-length (标准长度的) books a week and do all the other things that a so-called "normal" child could do.

    In Doman's view, the child's passion to learn during the years up to six must be fed. He believes that, like muscles, the brain develops with use, especially so in those first few years.

    Nowadays, parents come from all over the world to Pennsylvania to see and learn from the work

of Doman and his team; they want to discover how they can fulfill their roles as nature's teachers, by using their love, understanding and instincts for the benefit of the children. For in the words of Doman, "every child born has a greater potential intelligence than Leonardo da Vinci used".

11. Glenn Doman discovered in his research that brain-damaged children improved then they ____.

  A.got the right treatment

  B.were taught to read and understand

  C.could speak several languages

  D.got relief of their symptoms

12. The passage suggested that Doman's new approach was to _____.

  A.give shorter periods of decreased stimulation

  B.increase the number of types of stimulation

  C.decrease the time between the periods of stimulation

  D.intensify the shorter periods of stimulation

13. From the information given in the text, we can assume that _____ .

  A.brain-damaged children generally have high IQs

  B.children with only half a brain are more intelligent

  C.brain-damaged children can overcome their disability

  D.most normal two-year old children can read

14.  At the Better Baby Institute ______.

  A.unnatural development of children was achieved

  B.children developed at a normal standard rate

  C.the idea of "normal" achievement was challenged

  D.children needed seven years to develop normality

15. Parents come to the Institute because they want _____.

  A.their children to become as intelligent as Leonardo da Vinci

  B.to learn how to teach their children about nature

  C.to develop their own abilities to help their children

  D.their children to develop instincts of love and understand
