请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Tess was a precocious（早熟） eight-year-old girl when she heard her Mom and Dad talking about her little brother, Andrew.   36   she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely  37   money. They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn’t have the money for the doctor’s bills and their house. Only a(n)  38   could save him now.

Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly(果冻) jar from its hiding place. She poured all the 39 out on the floor and counted carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be absolutely exact. No _40_ here for mistakes. After carefully placing the coins back in the jar, she slipped out of the back door, and 41 her way six blocks to a chemist’s.

She waited patiently for the pharmacist (药剂师) to give her some 42 , but he was too busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a noise. Nothing. She cleared her   43  with the most awful sound she could muster. No good.

Finally the pharmacist asked in an  44  tone of voice, “What do you want? I’m talking to my brother from Chicago  45  I haven’t seen in ages,” he said without waiting for a reply to his question.

“Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. “His name is Andrew and he has something bad __46__ inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?”

“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry, _47_ I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said, his voice _48_ a little.

There was a man there whose clothes were admirable. He asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”

“I don’t know” Tess replied with tears in her eyes. “I just know he' s _49_ sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t pay _50_ it, so I want to use my money.”

“How much do you have?” asked the man. “One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered.

“A dollar and eleven cents — the _51_ price of a miracle for your little brother,” smiled the man, “Take me to _52_ you live. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”

That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neurosurgery (神经外科). The operation was completely _53_ charge and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again and did well.

Mom and Dad were happy but they wonder how much the operation would have _54_. Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost…one dollar and eleven cents…plus the _55_ of a little child.

One of the latest trends(趋势) in American childcare is Chinese au pairs.Au Pair in Stamford,Conn.,for example,has got increasing numbers of requests for Chinese au pairs from zero to around 4,000 since 2004.And that’s true all across the country.

“I thought it would be very useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age,”Joseph Stocke,the managing director of a company,says of his 2-year-old son.“I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future.”After only six months of being cared for by a 25-year-old woman from China,the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions,his dad says.

Li Drake,a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband,had another reason for looking for an au pair from China:She didn’t want her children to miss out on their roots.“Because I am Chinese,my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to(接触) the language and culture(文化),”she says.

“Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom,” says Suzanne Flynn,a professor in language education of children.“But parents must understand that just one year with an au pair is unlikely to produce wonders.Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.”

The popularity of au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children to learn Chinese.It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.

64.What does the term “au pair” in the text mean?

A.A mother raising her children on her own.

B.A young foreign woman taking care of children.

C.A professor in language education of children.

D.A child learning a foreign language at home.

65.Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them ______.

A.to live in China some day

B.to speak the language at home

C.to catch up with other children

D.to learn about the Chinese culture

66.How can children learn a foreign language best according to Flynn?

A.From their parents.

B.By attending classes.

C.From a native speaker.

D.By starting at an early age.

67.What can we infer from the text?

A.Learning Chinese is becoming popular in America.

B.Educated women do better in looking after children.

C.Chinese au pairs need to improve their English skills.

D.Children can learn a foreign language well in six months.

Since the first Earth Day in 1970,Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment(环境).“We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,”says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day the USA.

But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many,many times,”says Gaylord Nelson,the former governor from Wisconsin,who thought up the first Earth Day.

According to US government reports,emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons.The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with,the world is a safer and healthier place.A kind of “green thinking” has become part of practices.

Great improvement has been achieved.In 1988 there were only 600 recycling(回收利用)programs;today in 1995 there are about 6,600.Advanced lights,motors,and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.

Twenty-five years ago,there were hardly any education programs for environment.Today,it’s hard to find a public school,university,or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that,nothing else will change!” says Bruce Anderson.

68.According to Anderson,before 1970,Americans had little idea about______.

A.the social movement

B.recycling techniques

C.environmental problems

D.the importance of Earth Day

69.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?

A.The grass-roots level.

B.The business circle.

C.Government officials.

D.University professors.

70.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?

A.They have cut car emissions to the lowest.

B.They have settled their environmental problems.

C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.

D.They have reduced pollution through effective measures.

Problem: On the scale of problems, “pictures of food on the Internet” is firmly first-world. And that is almost certainly a too-generous definition of “problem.” When it comes to photographing and putting your dinner on line, I say live and let live, you know? Maybe your salad was particularly inviting and pleasing that night, and I, too, have spent many an hour clicking “random” on Smitten Kitchen and salivating（流口水）.

But I assume if you’re making the effort to arrange your food artfully and preserve its memory in a digital archive, you must... like food. And want it to taste good. A recent study published in the Journal of Consumer Psychology suggests that spending time focusing on images of food makes the food itself less satisfying.

Methodology: The researchers assumed that imagining enjoying something might lead to satiation -- the feeling that makes the second piece of cake taste not-quite-as-good as the first. To test this, they had some people participate in two experiments that they were told were separate -- one in which they rated how appetizing different photos of food looked, and one in which they ate some peanuts and rated how much they enjoyed them.

A separate group of people did the same experiment again, but in the photo-rating portion, some were asked to rate how appetizing the food was or to choose a preference between two foods, and some were asked to rate the brightness of the photo itself.

Results: The more photos of food people looked at, the less they enjoyed the peanuts -- if they were looking at photos of salty food. People who looked carefully at images of sweets enjoyed the peanuts more, suggesting that imagination causes satiation only if you’re imagining a similar food. In the second experiment, participants who focused on the brightness of the photos were able to enjoy the peanuts more than those who were thinking about the deliciousness of foods while they looked at the images.

Implications: You’ll probably enjoy your food more if you don’t take a picture of it, or scroll through images of cookies at work and then eat one when you get home. This also has potential implications for advertisers, who may unknowingly be giving away satiation for free when they show images of chicken wings or whatever in front of us all day long. But luckily the study provides a hint: Try not to think about the food’s taste while you take a photo -- just focus on your composition.
