“A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high. ” I’m sure T. J. Ware was made to feel this way almost every day in school.
By high school, T. J. was the most celebrated troublemaker in his town. Teachers literally frowned when they saw his name posted on their classroom lists.
I met T. J. for the first time when all the students at school were attending ACE training. At first, he showed no interest in the discussion. But slowly, the interactive games drew him in. T. J. had some brilliant thoughts on those situations, which were welcomed by his group. By the end of the activity, the other students on the team were impressed with his concern and ideas and elected T. J. co-chairman of the team.
When T. J. showed up at school on Monday morning, a group of teachers were expressing their disagreements to the school principal about his being elected co-chairman. The principal reminded them that the purpose of the program was to uncover any positive feeling and strengthen its practice until true change can take place. The teachers left the meeting, firmly convinced that failure was unavoidable.
Two weeks later, T. J. and his friends led a group of 70 students to collect food. They collected a school record: 2,854 cans of food in just two hours. The local newspaper covered the event with a full-page article the next day. That newspaper story was posted on the main bulletin board at school, where everyone could see it.
T. J.’s picture was up there for doing something great.
T. J. started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time. The event he started now yields 9,000 cans of food in one day, taking care of 70 percent of the
need for food for one year.
T. J. reminds us that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending. But once it has healed, it can fly higher than the rest. T. J. got a job. He became productive. He is flying quite nicely these days.
24.What do we know about T.J. before he attended the training? A.He was talkative in class. B.He didn't have a good fame. C.His ideas were quite impressive. D.He showed up at school every day.
25.Why did the team members elect T.J. co-chairman? A.He promised them a bright future. B.They wanted to offer him a chance. C.They thought the job was quite easy. D.He was considered qualified for the job.
26.What do we know about teachers' attitude towards T. J. 's being elected? A.Uncaring.
B.Favorable. D.Doubtful.
C.Disapproving.
27.What does the author try to convey with this story? A.No pain, no gain.
B.Rome wasn’t built in a day.
C.A bird with a mended wing can fly high. D.Treat others as you want to be treated.

Food experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it's been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing (冲洗)off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts (内脏)of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria.
The do — not — wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn't caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important.
But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it's not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging.
The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless type of E. coli and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed (大肠杆菌)their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.
To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren't out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.
28.Why don’t people accept USDA's advice ? A.Because the advice is relatively new B.Because cleaning seems more trustworthy C.Because cooks clean the turkey before cooking it
D.Because heat can kill most germs and no one eats raw food 29.What can be concluded from Paragraph 4? A.Food packages carry germs.
B.Hands and surfaces are easy to get E. coli.
C.Germs from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not. D.Multiple methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs. 30.Which way may help to cook a turkey safely? A.Rinse off the turkey before it is heated.
B.Keep the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator. C.Wash hands and packages before taking out the turkey. D.Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey. 31.From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken? A.Culture. C.Education.
B.Science. D.Entertainment. D
Sometimes, you just can’t say no to another spoonful of ice cream and maybe one more after that. Why not? You deserve it.
There’s no need to beat yourself up about it later. The truth is that you were probably bound to do that from the very first spoonful. That’s because there is a switch in your brain, and for whatever reason, it can get stuck in the “on” position.
According to a new study, this impulse (冲动) control may come down to a very specific circuit (回答) in the brain which occasionally produces melanin-concentrating hormone, or MCH—a
