A★★☆☆☆Abdul, who was a tailor in a village in southern India, managed to earn enoughto keep himself, his wife and his children. Tailoring is a trade that depends on having a sharp eye. When Abdul was 50, his eyes began to cloud over with cataracts (白内障). A year later he was almost completely blind.With no social security to fall back on, his wife and children had to somehow earn the money to sup port the family. However, Abdul’s luck changed when he was seen by a mobile eye team supported by Sight Savers. They performed a cataract removal operation which restored (恢复) his sight.Abdul is very special to us, because he was the two millionth person whose sight we restored. That was back in 1987. In 1991, Taj Eibi, a mother of two sons, became the three millionth person to receive the gift of sight from Sight Savers at a mobile eye hospital in Pakistan. Now she’s running the family home again, working in the fields with her sons and helping at the local primary school.How much did it cost to bring about this miracle (奇迹)? Just £8. Imagine, £8 will give the priceless gift of sight to a blind person. And £16 will restore the sight of two blind people.

It is a general duty made in the form of birthday, wedding, graduation, and anniversary gifts as well as presentations given when someone is ill or has died. Each gift of money or goods is noted when received and it is returned in equal value at a later time. Some Japanese families actually keep a written record, assigning values to gifts, and use this record for future reciprocity. Taking a gift to a party is another expression of giri, since Japanese rarely go empty-handed to a party hosted by any group.Omiyage is a souvenir or thing native to a particular place; thus travelers purchase omiyage for family, friends, and office workers at home. One European businessman, married to a Japanese woman, always returns home from a business trip with a box of candy or cookies for his office staff. Not limited to people of Japanese ancestry, this idea of omiyage is well accepted among many peoples in the Hawaiian Islands.When Japanese family members travel, the practice of senbetsu comes into play. Senbetsu is the gift of money to a traveler, which is often used to purchase omiyage for the giver.Giri, omiyage, and senbetsu — the three Japanese terms associated with gift giving — are concepts similarly implanted in many other Asian countries like China and Korea. These concepts have further spread to become a Hawaiian tradition where favors are returned and business is conducted among friends.24.

She began teaching school when most teachers were men at that time. Later, she became one of the first women ever to be employed by the government.Her career in helping the sick began when her brother David became her first patient. He fell down from the roof of a house when Clara was just 11 years old. She stayed by his side and looked after him for three years, learning how to give him all his medicines.When the Civil War began in 1861, she immediately recognized that the poorly equipped soldiers needed help. Instead of waiting for others to step in, Clara collected necessary things on her own, asked the public for donations and learnedhow to store and distribute them to soldiers. She also read to the soldiers and wrote letters for them.After the Battle of Cedar Mountain in northern Virginia in 1862, Clara arrived at a field hospital at midnight with a vehicle full of supplies. A doctor named Paul Smith at that hospital would later write, “I thought heaven had sent out an angel that night —her assistance arrived at exactly the right time.”In 1869, Clara went to Europe and learned about the International Committee of the Red Cross. Upon her return to the United States, she successfully founded the American Red Cross. She led the organization for the next 23 years. Her last field mission (使命) as president of the American Red Cross was to help the victims of the 1900 Galveston hurricane. She did not retire (退休) from the American Red Cross until she was 83. True to her nature, Clara always went to where the need was the greatest.Today, the American Red Cross continues the mission Clara started more than 100 years ago. With the help of thousands of volunteers, the American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters, as well as helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to all sorts of emergencies.28.

The aim of the American Red Cross.B. The importance of voluntary donations.C. Clara Barton and the American Red Cross.D. Clara Barton’s contribution to the Civil War.D★★★★☆Taylor Crowe used to play happily with his toys and recite his alphabet. By age 2, he was starting to learn to make sounds. But something happened in the third year of his childhood. He started losing his language abilities and would have emotionaloutbursts. Taylor’s parents noticed that he became very shy, and did not make eye contact (接触) when spoken to. He seemed to be in his own secret world.Today, nearly 1 out of every 110 children born in the U.S. suffers from autism. Taylor Crowe was actually one of these sufferers. Autism is a complex neurological (brain) con dition that affects a person’s ability to communicate and socialize. These children often repeat words or actions, and they are extra sensitive to sights, sounds and touch. They may have a sudden period of uncontrolled anger and can be seen beating their hands.Scientists believe that children with autism have highly developed visual areas in their brain which explains why many of them, including Taylor, are exceptionally good artists. But, unfortunately, this comes at a trade-off —the brain’s abili ty to communicate, make decisions, plan and complete a task is reduced.Through immediate treatments and specialized instructions, children with autism are taught behaviors such as keeping eye contact with others, responding when spoken to and becoming aware of themselves. Some children are able to grow up to lead a full and active life. For Taylor, it was years of hard work, but he has shown marked improvement and is well on his way to becoming better. It appears that the earlier parents and caregivers provide special care, the easier these children can get close to normal lives.Autism is a reminder that each of us is different. Every child with autism is still a child; every person with autism is still a person. The next time you come across a child with autism, try reaching out and connecting with the child inside.32. At the age of three, Taylor Crowe _____.A. was unable to see things clearlyB. would become angry very easilyC. started to learn to read the alphabetD. lost his language abilities completely33. It seems that autism _____.A. helps sufferers achieve in other fieldsB. spreads rapidly across the U.S.C. is caused by uncontrolled angerD. cannot be cured now34. In the last paragraph, the author tries to _____.A. explain what causes autismB. ask us to respect and accept those with autismC. tell us how to prevent autismD. make us realize the importance of being healthy35. What would be the best title for the text?A. A brief history of autismB. Autism and brain developmentC. Children with autism in the U.S.D.
