1. One day, when I was perhaps six years old, I was walking with my father on a crowded street. All of a sudden, the normal flow of pedestrian traffic backed up as people tried to avoid a large object on the sidewalk. To my astonishment, the object turned out to be a human being, a man lying unconscious against a building. 2. Certainly no one made eye contact. As we walked by ,my father — the model of a loving, caring gentleman — pointed to a bottle in a paper bag and told me that the poor soul on the sidewalk just needed to sleep it off. Then the drunken man began to murmur senselessly. My father warned me not to go near, saying "You never know how he’ll react."
3. I had spent the previous 12 months traveling in poor Asian cities, but even by those standards this was a scene of misery. In addition to being desperately poor, the locals had to live in the extremely hot climate, ridiculously huge crowds and a fairly strong wind blowing dust everywhere. Suddenly a man carrying a huge bag of peanuts called out in pain and fell to the ground. 4. A half dozen sellers ran from their stands to help, leaving unattended what might have been the totality of their possessions. One put a blanket under the man's head; another opened his shirt; a third questioned him carefully about the pain; a fourth fetched water; a fifth kept onlookers from crowding around too closely; a sixth ran for help.5. The performance could have passed for a final exam at a paramedic (护理人员)school.
A.I then witnessed an astonishing scene.
B.Not one of the passers-by seemed to notice that it was a man.
C.This was totally different from the bitter experience I had in New York.
D.Within minutes, a doctor arrived, and two other locals joined in to assist.
E.I soon came to see that day's lesson as basic knowledge for a New Yorker.
F.I'll always remember a lesson that I learned as a boy growing up in New York City.
G.Yet many years later I had a very different experience while visiting a market in Rangoon.
Heads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions- serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.
“By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can put their health at further risk,” said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr, MD, in a statement.
The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor 's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury (外伤性脑损伤) caused by a bump, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull (颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.
The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA' S new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.
1.What should young athletes who may have a concussion do?
A.Avoid using the head. B.Leave the field forever.
C.Get treatment in time. D.Switch to another sport.
2.What does the underlined word “jolt” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.A sudden impact. B.A strict limit.
C.A concrete barrier. D.A permanent damage.
3.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.How the EDC works. B.What causes damage to brain cells.
C.What a concussion is. D.How a concussion can be prevented.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Sports Injuries in the US B.Rules for Safer Play
C.Advice to Athletes D.New Policies for Doctors
The kakapo, a bird that lives in New Zealand, is not designed for survival. Weighing up to 4 kilograms, it is the world's fattest parrot. It mates (交配)only when the rimu tree is in fruit, which happens every few years. It developed gradually in the absence of land-based natural enemies, so instead of flying above the trees it walks like a duck across the dry forest floor. When it moves unsteadily across something that might kill it, it will stand still.
Such unusual characteristics turned it into fast food for human settlers, and for the cats and rats they brought with them. It seemed to have disappeared by the 1970s, until scientists came across two undiscovered populations in the country s south. These survivors were eventually moved to small enemy -free islands, where researchers have spent decades trying to get them to breed (繁殖).
The scientists' patience is finally rewarded. The rimu was in fruit this year, and more than 80 chicks hatched, making this the best breeding season, on record. Many have. survived into adolescence, increasing the number of adult kakapos by a third, to 200 birds.
Another danger to the kakapo is a lack of genetic diversity. This is one reason why fewer than half of kakapo eggs hatch. By arranging the genome (基因组) of every living bird, scientists can identify closely-related individuals and put them on different islands. Every bird is fitted with something to track its slightest movement. If a female mates with an “unsuitable” male, the process can be stopped.
All these efforts cost almost New Zealand $1 .3 million this breeding season. Yet the kakapo's future still looks unsafe. Earlier this year a severe disease tore through the population. And tiny as the number of kakapos is, space is running out on the two islands where most of them live. New enemy-free settlements must soon be found.
1.Which of the following is a danger for the survival of the kakapo?
A.It is the smallest bird in the world.
B.It lacks exercise and usually stands still.
C.It adapts slowly, in genetic development.
D.It can't respond actively when facing danger.
2.In what way was the scientists' patience rewarded?
A.Adequate food supply for kakapos was guaranteed.
B.New settlements for kakapos were eventually found.
C.Kakapos were becoming increasingly aggressive.
D.Kakapos' birth rate reached the highest level.
3.Why did the scientists put kakapos in different islands?
A.To stop closely-related kakapos mating.
B.To help kakapo families live together.
C.To maintain the production of rimu fruit.
D.To protect kakapos from natural enemies.
4.What does the author think of the efforts to protect the kakapo in New Zealand?
A.They are successful. B.They are inadequate.
C.They are doubtful. D.They are unsafe.
