For the first time in the history of the Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou marathons, fourteen blind runners competed in the Nov 6 Hangzhou Marathon this year with the assistance of personal guides. Each runner was supported by 4 or 5 volunteers. Among them was Yan Wei, from a running group called “Running in the Dark”, which specially provides training for blind runners.
During trainings, blind runners are each accompanied by three volunteers. One volunteer is responsible for removing any obstacles(障碍物)on the road and controlling the pace. The second
volunteer acts as a lookout for other runners or vehicles on the path while the third, who is attached to the blind runner by a safety rope, takes note of the trainee’s running gait and pace.
Zhu Peihua, the leader of the group’s Shanghai branch, first developed a passion for running last year when he took part in a guided running activity. Zhu said that he was so fascinated with
the sport that he even bought a treadmill(跑步机)so that he could train at home. “Running gives
me the chance to be outside and take in the fresh air. The activity has also made me more willing to talk to people. It’s simply good for health, ” said Zhu.
The popularity of guided running activities for blind people has been growing since last year. Cheng Yi, a volunteer at Running in the Dark’s Hangzhou branch, said that both the numbers of blind runners and volunteers to become assistants to them are rising continually. However, he added that volunteers face a more physically demanding task compared to a regular runner. Some
of the other challenges involve being aware of the verbal(口头的) instructions one gives.
“At the beginning, I kept saying ‘here’ and ‘there’ instead of ‘left’ or ‘right’ which is much more specific and relevant to the runner. A blind runner once collided with another runner because of my mistake. Luckily, no one was hurt,” said Cheng. Through everything, according to Cheng, he and many of the blind runners he has guided become close friends with shared topics and increased understandings.
【小题1】“Running in the Dark” ? .
A. has 4 or 5 volunteers B. is a very popular sports activity
C. helps people develop a passion for running D. trains the blind to run
【小题2】This passage is most probably taken from a/an ? .
A. newspaper B. advertisement
C. story book D. scientific report
【小题3】What is the best title of the passage?
A. Making the World Different. B. Meeting New Challenges.
C. Bringing Back Friendships. D. Lending One’s Feet and Eyes.

Protect Children from Cyber-bullying
When you think about bullying, you might think of a child being bullied by another in the schoolyard. As more young people have access to computers and cell phones, traditional bullying has gone digital, which has not yet gained awareness in Chinese parents.
Cyber-bullying, first invented by Canadian educator Bill Belsey, is the use of the Internet and related technologies to harm other people, in an intentional, repeated, and unfriendly manner. It involves threatening text messages, the spread of online rumors on social networking sites, and intentionally keeping someone out of an online group. Cyber-bullying is at an all-time high in the US. According to a study from the US Department of Justice, more than 43% of teenagers report
being victims(受害者)of cyber-bullying.
Compared to face-to-face bullying, cyber-bullying is considered to have a worse emotional effect on the victims, and kids could feel more desperate and depressed. Severe, long-term or frequent cyber-bullying can leave victims at greater risk for anxiety, depression, and other disorders. Research says that cyber-bullying victims were almost twice as likely to have attempted suicide compared to youths who had not experienced it.
In? traditional? schoolyard? bullying,? at? least? home? is? a? safe? place? for? the? victims.? But cyber-bullying is endless---it could happen anytime. Moreover, in the digital world, bullying is much easier, as a bully can pick on people with a much lower risk of being caught.
Actually,? cyber-bullying? has? become? a? worldwide? issue.? In? the? US,? as? several? teens committed suicide because of cyber-bullying, some schools set rules to punish cyberbullies. Laws to punish cyber-bullying have been introduced in some states. In China, cyber-bullying is still considered by many parents and educators as a problem that involves physical contact. However, as cell phones and laptops are becoming common equipment for teenagers, social interactions have increasingly moved from personal contact to virtual contact. Cyber-bullying is spreading faster than expected.
For schools and parents, safety rules should be set in the virtual world for kids, such as telling them not to let out anything to a stranger. Active steps should be taken to make the public aware of the seriousness of this problem, because it would be too late to take measures after
tragedy strikes.
【小题1】According to the writer, which of the following is cyber-bullying?
A. Saying unkind words to classmates.
B. Attacking one’s computer with virus.
C. Stopping someone from joining a club.
D. Threatening someone in text messages.
【小题2】Compared to traditional bullying, cyber-bullying .
A. can be found out easily
B. hasn’t been punished by law
C. can cause more lasting sufferings
D. has made twice more youths killed
【小题3】According to the passage, .
A. cyber-bullying first started in Canada
B. measures should be taken against cyber-bullying
C. there is no escape from cyber-bullying for students
D. Chinese students are not facing serious cyber-bullying
【小题4】Who is this passage mainly intended for?
A. Parents and educators. B. Victims and parents.
C. Teachers and students. D. Researchers and victims.

A Small-Town Christmas
I worked lots of extra hours in my first Christmas season as a clerk for Dancer’s, the department store in my small hometown of Wayland, Michigan.
I’d started the job, which paid 85 cents an hour, that summer of 1966 after getting a work permit at age 15. Our neighbor Arnie Wilde was the manager, and I soon learned how to fit shoes, measure and cut cloth, and keep the shelves of shirts and underwear nice and neat.
We closed at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve, and at 5:55 a local farmer came in to find gifts for his wife. Arnie told me this was a holiday habit of Mr. Johnson’s, and that we’d do our best to take care of him.
I knew Mr. Johnson, whose daughter was in my class and in the band, so I went to help him. We wandered through the sweaters, dresses and skirts, the pretty towels and practical flannel ( 法 兰绒) nightgowns. We talked about size and color and what I thought Mrs. Johnson would like.
After nearly half an hour of mulling, Mr. Johnson decided on a flannel nightgown with pretty pink slippers to match and a piece of jewelry that I’d pointed out to him. I wrapped his gifts and completed the sale, and Arnie and I walked home for dinner.
The next Christmas Eve, like clockwork, Mr. Johnson came in at 5:55. We went through the same process, taking lots of time again to choose and wrap gifts. Tired but happy, Arnie and I headed for home.
By my third Christmas at Dancer’s, I was an experienced salesclerk. Mrs. Johnson had come into the store in late summer to buy school clothes for the kids, and we chatted while I helped her shop. As she commented on pretty colors and the lovely way a dress was made, I made mental notes.
When Mr. Johnson made his last-minute appearance on Christmas Eve, I was ready. I told him, “Mrs. Johnson was in not too long ago, and I noticed how much she liked this royal blue sweater and the plaid skirt that goes with it so beautifully.” She’d also told me that she really needed new boots, confiding that she was ashamed to walk into church with her old ones.
I’d found some perfect boots in her size and had put them aside for Christmas Eve. Well, Mr. Johnson was impressed, and I think more than a little relieved. We had him out the door by 6:10 with everything wrapped in paper and ribbons!
I worked for Arnie three more holiday seasons and was always there just before closing on Christmas Eve, when Mr. Johnson knew I had the answers he needed. The big stores in Grand Rapids had more merchandise and lovely Christmas fantasies in their windows, but it’s only in a small town that neighbors take care of neighbors.
