       After successfully serving their term for 4 years, military service men and women are given the choice to stay in the military or return to civilian(平民)life.

       For some, having to readjust to civilian life is one of the most challenging assignments our returning soldiers and marines(水兵)will ever have to undertake.While people may think readjusting should be simple, they must take into consideration all the physical and mental stress our servicemen went through.

       Post-traumatic Stress Disorder(创伤后应急障碍), or PTSD, is a mental disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat(打仗).

       Most survivors of trauma return to normal given a little time.In the military, the marines are given a two-week course on how to return to civilian life.

       Unfortunately, some will have stress reactions that do not go away on their own, or may even get worse over time.These individuals may develop PTS                             D.

       People who suffer from PTSD have difficulty sleeping because they are often reliving the experience through nightmares(梦魇)and flashbacks, and feel deserted or often stand off, and these symptoms can be severe enough and last long enough to significantly damage the person’s daily life.

       Fullerton College, like most colleges, has its own Veteran’s(老兵)Office.Ray Bustos has been running the office for 3 years.Bustos acts as a liaison(联络) for the school and the veteran students.He makes sure the veterans returning to school get the right benefits.There are various types of financial aid for soldiers and marines.He strongly encourages the use of the Veterans Affairs website.

       The website is very informative and extremely helpful for veterans as well as for friends and relatives of veterans who want to learn more.

       A.to introduce some methods to cure PTSD

       B.to instruct PTSD patients to return to civilian life

       C.to recommend a website for veterans and people concerned

       D.to give military service men and women advice on civilian life

2.What problems will some returning soldiers and marines meet with?

       A.How to readjust to civilian life.            B.How to get rid of mental diseases

       C.How to get along with PTSD patients    D.How to return to school for benefits.

3.Which of the following is true about Ray Bustos?

       D.He provides a lot of financial aid for soldiers and marines.

       Justin’s bedroom was so full of flat bicycle tires, bent tennis rackets, deflated(瘪掉的)basketballs, and games with missing pieces that you could barely get in the door.His parents pleaded with him to clean out his room.

       “What use is a fish tank with a hole in the bottom?” his father asked.But Justin simply smiled and repeated his motto, “Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy.”

       When Justin was away from home, he always carried his blue backpack--a smaller version of his bedroom--a place to store the many objects that he collected.It was so worn and stretched that it hardly resembled a backpack anymore.

       Justin had earned a reputation for figuring things out and getting people out of otherwise hopeless situations.Many of his classmates and neighbors sought him out when they needed help with a problem.On the first day of school, his friend Kenny, came looking for Justin.

       “Do you think you have something in your bag that could help me remember my locker combination?” he asked.“I lost the piece of paper it was written on.I have a science class in two minutes and if I'm late on the first day it’ll make me look bad for the rest of the year.” Kenny looked really worried.

       “Relax,” Justin said, taking his backpack off and unzipping the top.“Remember how you borrowed my notebook in homeroom to write the combination down? Well, I know how we can recover what you wrote.”

       He took the notebook and a soft lead pencil out of his bag.The page that Kenny had written on had left faint marks on another page in the notebook.Justin held the pencil on its side and rubbed it lightly over the marks.Slowly but surely the numbers of the locker combination appeared in white, set off by the gray pencil rubbings.

       “That's amazing!” Kenny said.“I owe you one.” And he dashed off to open his locker.

       It was just another day in the life of the boy whose motto was “Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy.”

1.Why is Justin's room such a mess?

       A.He always forgets to clean it.

       B.He shares the room with his brother.

       C.He has no time to clean it.   

       D.He never throws anything away.

2.In what way is Justin’s backpack a smaller version of his bedroom?

       A.He uses it as a place to store objects.

       B.He uses it to carry his books and sports equipment.

       C.His parents tell him to clean it all the time.

       D.He's had it for as long as he can remember.

3.The underlined phrase "pleaded with" means

       A.ignored              B.asked                  C.pushed              D.Ordered

4.How does Kenny feel toward Justin?

       A.Annoyed.       B.Disinterested.    C.Grateful.         D.Angry.
