When a tornado hit the small town of Otwell, Indiana years ago, Kathryn Martin, 32, who lived 60 miles away in Evansville, couldn’t get the news out of her mind. “I kept thinking, ‘Those poor people. Somebody’s got to help them,’” she says. She knew firsthand what they were going through.
Six months earlier, a tornado had str uck her town, taking the lives of her 2-year-old son, C.J. and her mother-in-law. “It was the most terrible experience of my life,” she says. “That grief will never go away, and it broke my heart to think about what these families were going throug h in Otwell.”
So Kathryn loaded her car with juice boxes, snacks and toys and drove to Otwell. She gave th e items to the Red Cross, and as she was leaving, she saw a couple sorting through the ruins of their home while their children were watching. So Kathryn stopped and gave a few toys to the kids and played with them for a while. “The parents couldn’t thank me enough for what I did for their children,” she says.
On the drive back to Evansville, Kathryn came up with an idea to help more kids. She talked her family, friends and neighbors into joining her and spent the next few m onths organizing fundraisers. Finally, in August 2007, she showed C.J.’s Bus, a 35-foot school bus that was turned into a mobile playroom.
In the following years, stocked with video games and DVDs, toys, crafts, books and more, the bus traveled to disaster-torn towns, giving the children there a safe place to play. So far, C.J.’s bus has traveled to three states affected by tornadoes or floods, cheering up more than 756 children, aged 3-13.

A. felt it was the most terrible experience of her life

D. was extremely worried about her family members
22. What does the underlined word “grief” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Sadness
B. Worry
C. Disaster

23. What do we know about C.J.’s Bus?

When people ask me what Down Syndrome(唐氏综合症) is, I tell them it’s an extra chromosome(染色体). A doctor would tell you the extra chromosome causes an intellectual disability that makes it harder for me to learn things.
Even though I have Down Syndrome, my life is a lot like yours. I read books and watch TV. I listen to music with my friends. I’m on the swim team and in chorus at school. I think about the future, and I like the one who I’ll marry. And I get along with my sisters---except when they take CDs without asking! I’m a hard worker, a good person, and I care about my friends.
Some of my classes are with typical kids, and some are with kids with learning disabilities. I have an aid who goes with me to my harder classes, like math and biology. She helps me take notes and gives me tips on how I should study for tests. It really helps, but I also challenge myself to do well. For instance, my goal was to be in a typical English class by 12th grade. That’s exactly what happened this year!
It’s true that I don’t learn some things as fast as other people do. But that won’t stop me from trying. I just know that if I work really hard and by myself I can do almost anything.
I can’t change the fact that I have Down Syndrome, but one thing I would change is what people think of me. I’d tell them, “Judge me as a whole person, not just the person you see. Treat me with respect, and accept me for who I am. The most important---just be my friend.”
28. A person with Down Syndrome ____________according to the passage.
A. can learn things almost as fast as normal people do

C. lovely
D. special

B. hopeful
C. unhappy
D. curious
31. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To prove people with Down Syndrome are a lot like healthy ones

C. To change people’s attitude towards people with Down Syndrome
D. To describe the life of a student with learning disabilities
D
Want to live longer? Win an Oscar.
A new study says that actors who received the award earn more than larger paych ecks.
So when 94-year-old Katharine Hepburn once remarked that she was respected internationally “like an old building”, she had no idea that her four Oscars directly influenced her longevity(长寿).
The study says winning actors will live 3.9 years longer than their losing counterparts (对手). Actors who have won more than once, like Hepburn, live up to six years longer than those who were nominated (提名) but never won.
“We found that they died from the same things we all die from—cancer, heart disease, but they fought them a bit longer and d iseases came a bit later,” says Dr. Donald Redelmeier, the leading author of the study. Redelmeier says the sense of success and satisfaction makes one’s soul become more full of life.
“We are not saying that you will live longer if you win an Oscar,” expl ains Redelmeier, “or that people should go out and take acting courses. Our main conclusion is simply that social factors are important.” The study’s implied conclusion, he says, is that doctors should ask about their patients’ personal feelings because mental well-being is related to physical health.
Redelmeier says he got the idea for the study when he watched a glowing Gwyneth Paltrow win an Oscar in 1999 for her role in Shakespeare in Love. Redelmeier says, “She looked more full of life than anyone I had seen.”
“We found, too, those that had multi-nominations and no win had the same life expectancy as those with just a single nomination and no win,” Redelmeier adds.
32. The longevity of Oscar winners mainly has something to do with___________.
A. the big money that was awarded
B. mental factors
C. rich and colorful lives
D. respect from others and better treatment
33. Tom had five Oscar nominations but win no Oscar and Peter had only one nomination
and won no Oscar either. We can tell__________.
A. Tom probably will have a longer life than Peter.
B. Peter probably will have a longer life than Tom
C. Both Tom and Peter probably will have the same life expectancy
D. Both Tom and Peter probably will have a long life.
34. According to the passage, we know __________.
A. When Katharine Hepburn was 94, she knew her long life had something to do
with her 4 Oscar prizes
B. In general the number of Oscar prizes has nothing to do with a person’s
life expectancy.
C. That Gwyneth Paltrow’s full of l ife made Redelmeier decide to do the study.
D. If you want to live a happy and long life, you should take acting courses
and win Oscars.
35.What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Most Oscar Winners Live Longer Lives
B. How to Get a Long Life
C. A New Study about Long Lives
D. An Amazing Finding
