21、   James Harrison is called “The Man with the Golden Arm”. The Australian man has saved the lives of more than 2.4 million babies by donating blood nearly every week for 60 years.

At the age of 14, Harrison had an 11-hour operation to remove a lung. “ I received 13 units(liters) of blood and my life had been saved by unknown people,” Harrison said. “When I’m old enough, I’ll become a blood donor.”

That is exactly what Harrison did. Soon afterwards, doctors told him that his blood contains a rare antibody that could help mothers who have rhesus disease, a condition where a pregnant woman’s blood attacks the blood cells of her fetus(胎儿). In worst cases, it can result in brain damager or death for the baby, and until about 1967, thousands of babies were dying each year in Australia.

Before long, researchers had developed an injection(注射剂), called Anti-D, using Harrison’s donated blood. Because about 17 percent of pregnant women in Australia require the Anti-D injections, the blood service estimates Harrison has helped 2.4 million babies in the country. At age of 81, he had already passed the age limit allowed for donors, and the blood service had decided Harrison should stop donating to protect his health.

Harrison was awarded the Australian Medal of Honor in recognition of his extraordinary efforts and generosity, but he doesn’t consider himself a hero. He’s now donated his blood 1,173 times, which gained him a Guinness World Record. But in all those times of giving blood, he’s never once watched. “I look at the ceiling or the nurses, maybe talk to them a bit. I can’t stand the sight of blood, and I can’t stand pain.”

【1】What contributed to Harrison’s becoming a blood donor?

A.The rare antibody in his blood B.His gratitude to the blood donors

C.The request from the blood service D.His pain during the removal of his lung

【2】What’s Anti-D used to do？

A.Save babies by giving them injection B.Protect babies from common illness

C.Cure pregnant mothers with rhesus disease D.Prevent women’s blood from being attacked

【3】What does Harrison hold the Guinness World Record for?

A.The age among blood donors B.The amount of blood he donated

C.The number of donations he made D.The number of babies he saved by donating

【4】What does the author think of Harrison?

A.He is kind and curious B.He is generous and modest

C.He is selfless and shy D.He is sympathetic and cautious

22、 I fell in love with the minister's son the winter I turned fourteen. He was not Chinese. For Christmas I prayed for the boy, Robert. When I found out that my parents had invited the minister's family over for Christmas Eve dinner, I cried in panic. What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas? What would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked proper American manners?

On Christmas Eve, my mother created abundant Chinese food. And then they arrived—the minister's family and all my relatives. Robert greeted hello, and I pretended he was not worthy of existence.

Dinner threw me deeper into disappointment. My relatives licked (舔) the ends of their chopsticks and reached across the table. Robert and his family waited patiently for a large plate to be passed to them. My relatives murmured with pleasure when my mother brought out the whole steamed fish. Robert made a face. Then my father reached his chopsticks just below the fish eye and picked out the soft meat. “Amy, your favorite，” he said, offering me the tender fish cheek. I wanted to disappear.

At the end of the meal, my father leaned back and burped (打嗝) loudly, thanking my mother for her fine cooking. “It's a polite Chinese custom to show you are satisfied，” explained my father to our astonished guests. Robert was looking down at his plate with a reddish face. The minister managed to bring up a quiet burp. I was shocked into silence for the rest of the night.

After everyone had gone, my mother said to me, “You want to be the same as American girls on the outside.” She handed me an early gift. It was a miniskirt. “But inside you must always be Chinese. You must be proud that you are different. Your only shame is to have shame.”

It was not until years later that I was able to fully appreciate her lesson and the purpose behind her particular menu. For Christmas Eve that year, she had chosen excellent Chinese food.

A. she childishly expected all of them to act in the same way as Americans did at table

B. her father reached his chopsticks to pick fish for her

23、Bringing up children is hard work, and you are often to blame for any bad behavior of your children. If so, Judith Rich Harris has good news for you. Parents, she argues, have no important long -term effects on the development of the personality of their children. Far more important are their playground friends and neighborhood. Ms. Harris takes to hitting the assumption, which has dominated(支配) developmental psychology for almost half a century.

Ms. Harris's attack on the developmental psychologists’ "nurture" argument looks likely to reinforce(加强） doubts that the profession was already having. If parents matter, why is it that two adopted children, brought up in the same home, are no more similar in personality than two adopted children brought up in separate homes? Or that a pair of identical twins, brought up in the same home, are no more alike than a pair of identical twins brought up in different homes?

Difficult as it is to track the clear effects of parental upbringing, it may be harder to measure the exact influence of the peer(同龄人) group in childhood and adolescence. Ms. Harris points to how children from immigrant homes soon learn not to speak at school in the way their parents speak. But acquiring a language is surely a skill, rather than a characteristic of the sort developmental psychologists hunt for. Certainly it is different from growing up tensely or relaxed, or from learning to be honest or hard -working or generous. Easy though it may be to prove that parents have little impact on those qualities, it will be hard to prove that peers have vastly more.

Moreover, mum and dad surely cannot be ignored completely. Young adults may, as Ms. Harris argues, be keen to appear like their peers. But even in those early years, parents have the power to open doors: they may choose the peers with whom their young associate, and pick that influential neighborhood. Moreover, most people suspect that they come to resemble their parents more in middle age. So the balance of influences is probably complicated. Even if it turns out that the genes they pass on and the friends their children play with matter as much as affection, discipline and good example, parents are not completely off the hook

【1】According to Ms. Harris,______.

A．parents are to blame for any bad behavior of their children

B．children's personality is largely shaped by their friends and neighbors

C．nature rather than nurture has a significant effect on children' s personality development

D．parents will affect greatly the children's life in the long run

【2】The developmental psychologists think .

A. children are more influenced by their peers

B. identical twins raised in the same home are different in personality

C. twins raised in two separate families are different in personality

D. upbringing has a less significant effect on children’s personality development

【3】According to Paragraph 3, we know that .

A. it is easier for children to gain a language at home

B. it is harder to follow the effects of parental upbringing

C. immigrant children avoid speaking the same way as their parents at school

D. it is proved that peers have a greater effect on children’s qualities

【4】What does the author mean by saying parents are not completely off the look at the end of the passage？

A. Parents should control the situation.

B. Parents should give their way to children.

C. Parents should spend more time on children.

D. Parents should take on their responsibility.

24、In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).

I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.

Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.

After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”

I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
