I waited, expecting a pronouncement of my new 7 .
“Sweet,” he said, walking out of the room.
For a couple of days afterward, Max 8 a new title for me. "Can we go bowling?” “Can I watch TV?” he'd ask, and then follow the questions by mouthing the word Mom. Mom was always silent.
One weekend, he suddenly said, “I notice I don't call you Mom.”
“I noticed that too.”
“When I say Betsy, I mean Mom. Moms die, you know. I think it's maybe 9 if you’ re just Betsy.”
Tears were filling my eyes.

14、Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket —anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.
It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set up his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.
The following year he met John Ridgway and started to work as a teacher at Ridgway’s school of adventure（冒险）in Scotland, where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold—waterexploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures; he decided that this would be his future.
In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long—distance expedition (探险) towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his sled up and over the rocky mountains.

15、Children with autism(孤独症) have difficulty with social skills and communication. They often act in limited and repeated ways and have what seem like unusual strong interests.
Autism is more often seen in boys than girls. What causes it is not clear. Scientists are studying DNA and possible environmental influences.
Doctors usually cannot confirm a diagnosis(确诊) of autism until a child is about three years old. Rebecca Landa is a researcher at the Kennedy Krieger Institute. Professor Landa wanted to find out what differences in development might be seen earlier. She led a new study that observed 235 babies between 6 and 36 months of age.
“At six months of age, when you lay your baby on their back and you pull them by the arms gently into a seated place, the baby’s he ad may nod back behind the shoulders, like poor head control. But that does not mean that the baby is going to have autism. It does mean the baby needs to have some exercises to help their body get stronger. And when the babies strengthen their bodies, the y are better able to play with toys and also with people, which will help them have better outcomes.”
By the time a baby is one year old, signs of possible autism include difficulty in using words and not looking eye-to-eye or reaching out to other people. By 14 months, the baby might smile less and use language less. However, Professor Landa says these signs can be very small and their children might be missed during a short health exam.
“It’s important for parents to pay attention to their children’s development, and if they care about a child’s development, they should listen to experts.”
The earlier parents notice delays, she says, the sooner they can begin simple things that may help improve their children’s development. For example, they can talk to the children about what they are doing, give opinions when the children show them something, and play simple games that keep the children’s attention.
1．What’s the best title of the passage?
A．How to Confirm a Diagnosis of Autism
B．Catching the Early Signs of Autism in Babies
C．Ways to Help Children with Autism to Get Better
D．Children with Autism with Difficulty in Communication
2．What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A．Landa tried to find differences in babies’ development earlier.
B．Landa has found ways to confirm a diagnosis of autism.
C．Doctors led a new study to confirm a diagnosis of autism.
D．Doctors helped babies with autism develop without difference.
3．When a baby with signs of autism is 14 months old, he or she may ________.
A．nod the head back behind the shoulders B．have difficulty raising his or her head
C．dislike to communicate with others D．like reaching out to other people
D
16、It seems that a cat and a mouse just can’t get along well. Cats always like to catch mice. When a mouse meets a cat, the mouse will try to run away as fast as possible.
Once upon a time, on a sunny fall afternoon, a young mouse ran around for fun under a tall tree by himself. He kicked up a small piece of rock. The rock went up to the air then dropped down hitting a baby cat. The baby cat was only a few weeks old. She looked at the mouse and said to he rself, “He must have lots of power because he could kick up a piece of rock to hit me.” She felt scared.
It made the young mouse very proud. He told his friends, the other mice, “Everybody says that a mouse is afraid of a cat, but today a cat was afraid of me.” So the mouse said that he would not run away any more. His friends explained that it was just an accident. The baby cat was too young to know a mouse. When the baby cat grew up to become a big cat, it would be different. So the other mice advised the young mouse that he must still run away when he saw a cat. But the self-important mouse would not take the advice.
One year later, the baby cat grew up and became a big cat. One day, under the same tall tree, when the big cat showed up, all the mice ran away except the young mouse. He remained staying there without moving.
