I am travelling back with my parents from seeing my grandparents then it started to snow. At first, I thought it was fun and everything looked beautifully. I was looking forward to make a snowman in the playground at school the next day, and suddenly the car drove off road and into a channel. My father called the rescue team, but they said that would be a long time before they could reach us. However, we sang songs and told stories to pass the time. Several hour later, the rescue team pulled their car out of the channel. At last, we managed to drive very slowly to home. I would never forget this experience.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When a friend is sad about the loss of a loved one, it’s easy to feel helpless. Sometimes we think we’re doing the right thing by trying to cheer them up, or letting them know that they should try to move on. 1. So here are some ways to help you support your friend in time of need.
1. Recognize the stages of sadness.
Most people suffering a loss will go through these stages, often in no particular order: denial (拒绝), bargaining, anger, depression and acceptance. 2. The more familiar you are with these stages, the better you’ll be to support your friend.
2. 3.
We are often ready to praise the person who appears to be dealing strongly with a loss. The problem is that we need to allow them to be human and vulnerable (脆弱的) sometimes too. After all, there’s strength in letting out your feelings from time to time.
3. Ask them what they need.
It’s normal to feel you can guess what your friend needs. Because we’re all different, it is best to ask them what it is that you can do for them. If they say “I don’t know” or “nothing”, don’t walk away or worry. 4. And let them know that you will be there when they think of something.
Finally, keep in mind that loss is not just felt through death. It can be the loss of a job, the loss of hope or expectation and so much more. 5. And your role as a supporter is very important and helpful.
A. Be the person who follows up.
B. Each one is healthy and necessary.
C. Loss is a difficult thing to work through.
D. Don’t always tell them how strong they are.
E. Just offer your support in whatever way you can.
F. Your caring will be appreciated and provide much comfort.
G. But those efforts often put pressure on them and leave them feeling useless.
Repeated cases of child abuse (虐待) in China have shocked the country. They also have led to more protection of children’s rights. But rights activists say the government and private groups need to do more to help children in need.
A small child protection service in Shanghai is trying to stop neglect and violence against children.
Gege is seven years old. She has been homeless for almost half her life. Her mother suffers from a mental condition. They lived on the streets in Shenzhen for more than three years. A man named Xiao Xudong learned about Gege. He told her story to the local media (媒体) earlier this year. Government officials heard the story and found help for Gege and her mother. The mother began to receive treatment for her mental problems. Gege was sent to a centre for children who had lost both parents. She was later re-united with her father.
Her story has a happy ending. But social workers are not yet celebrating.
Xiao Xudong spoke on Skype: “We have many child protection organizations, but why do we still have so many children being abused and neglected?”
Recently, Chinese newspapers and magazines reported on repeated cases of child abuse in the country. The reports shocked many people and led the government to strengthen measures to protect children’s rights.
Xie Chang’e is a lawyer. She offers legal assistance at a child protection service called Hope Home. Ms. Xie said that China has laws to protect children’s rights. But the laws are often unclear, she added, and difficult to put into effect.
However, the government is starting to recognize the problems in the child welfare system. New rules state that parents or legal guardians who sexually abuse, sell, abandon or violently hurt children will lose their legal right to care for them.
Ms. Xie supports the new regulations. She says they are a good way to help protect children. But she says police and other officials do not know about the regulations or do not always follow them. She also notes that the new regulations have the force of law, but they have not yet been written into laws.

A. show that child abuse has attracted the attention of society
B. indicate the seriousness of child abuse in China
C. prove that every abused child that receives help will have a happy ending
D. show that using the press is the best way to help abused children
2.What causes the laws to protect children’s rights to be ineffective?
A. The laws are so complicated that people don’t understand them.
B. The laws are so general that they are hard to put into effect.
C. The laws are often ignored by the government.
D. The laws are not practical.
3.According to Xie Chang’e, new regulations aimed at protecting children .
A. are more reasonable than before
B. have got the best results
C. don’t have the force of law
D. should be written into laws
4.What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To explain the bad need to solve child abuse in China.
B. To call on people to have pity on abused children.
C. To help abused children find a happy ending.
D. To raise the government’s concerns(关注) to protect children.
