任务型阅读
When I was twelve years old I wanted nothing more than to be accepted onto a club baseball team. If I made a team like that I would be playing with the best competition for my age in Massachusetts and some teams from all over the country. I have always had a great understanding of the game and played very well but never at that level. I played baseball all summer and it was time for tryouts(选拔赛) in the fall. The team I tried out for was the South Shore Baseball Club or “The Seadogs.” On the field I was very nervous and didn’t play as well as I knew I could. A week later I received a letter saying “Thank you for participating (参加)in our tryout, however we have a limited(有限的) amount of spots on our club and we will not be inviting you to play on the team. Better luck next year.”
After they sent me that letter I stopped playing competitive baseball. I only played for my town baseball team. ①很幸运地是，我遇到了爸爸是教练的Jimmy Perron, 一个很棒的球员。 He thought I was good at baseball. Soon, I got to another tryout. I tried my absolute(完全地) hardest and did well.
About one week later, a letter came to my house.② I couldn’t wait to cut it open and read, “James, you are invited to play for the Mass Pride Baseball organization in the ’09season.” I had reached my goal. But it doesn’t end there. I already have a new goal. I hope to be able to play ball on the college level someday.

Recently hand-foot-mouth disease has spread across China. In the past three months, there have been about 41,846 cases (病例) in 30 provinces and regions. The number is increasing. Eighteen Chinese children have died of the disease so far this year.
What causes the disease and why is it dangerous?
Hand-foot-mouth disease is a common childhood illness. It mainly affects children under the age of 10. It gets its name from the rash (疹子) that develops on the hands and feet. It can also cause blisters (水泡) in your mouth.
A child who has the disease will usually have a fever, a runny nose and sore throat. He or she doesn’t want to eat or drink because of pain in the mouth.
Hand-foot-mouth disease is mostly not serious. The fever and rash clear within a few days. But in some cases, the virus (病毒) affects the heart, lungs or brain. This puts the child’s life in danger.
A virus causes hand-foot-mouth disease. The disease spreads easily where a lot of young children are together, such as in a child-care center. Sometimes it can also affect teenagers and adults.
In order not to pass on the virus, good hygiene (卫生) is important. We should wash our hands as often as possible. Especially we should wash our hands before meals and after going to the toilet.
