After a boy had unwrapped his gifts on Christmas morning,his mother asked him which present he wanted to donate.
"None," the 5-year-old boy replied. His mother explained that sharing was part of the holiday spirit. She also explained that a poor child would be very happy to receive a gift. The boy eventually agreed to part with (舍棄) one of his gifts. He put his four gifts in front of him and tried to decide which one to part with. It was a difficult decision,but he chose to say goodbye to the flute (長笛) ."Where do we take it?" he asked his mother. His mother explained that there was a Salvation Army box two streets away and someone would give the gifts to children who needed them.
This parting with a gift became a yearly activity. When he was 8 years old,the boy treas?ured the gifts he had received so much that his decision needed to be made using a special method,which led him to part with a set of checkers (跳棋) .Three months later,he saw the checkers set at his friend Jerry's house. When Jerry was 6 years old,his father had died and his mother had lost her job,so he had few gifts.
The next Christmas,when the boy thought about how much fun he had watching Jerry play with the checkers,he told his mother that he wanted to put his new football in the Salvation Army box. Through giving gifts,he found that giving brings happiness not only to others but also to himself.

Since the 1970s,scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Braincomputer interface (BCD technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently,two researchers,Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne,Switzerland,demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair by a person's thoughts.
"Our brain has billions of nerve cells. They send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can pre?vent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles," Tavella says. "Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices."
The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (頭皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan,the team leader,says scientists keep improving the computer software that re?ceives brain signals and turns them into simple commands. "The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped into two categories,communication and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair."
He says his team set two goals. One is testing with real patients,so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technolo?gy over long periods of time.
( ) 5. BCI is a technology that can .
A. help to update computer systems B. link the human brain with computer
C. help the disabled to recover D. control a person's thoughts
( ) 6. How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
A. By controlling his muscles. B. By talking to the machine.
C. By moving his hand. D. By using his mind.
( ) 7. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 4?
A. scalp—computer—cap—wheelchair B. computer—cap—scalp—wheelchair
C. scalp—cap—computer—wheelchair D. cap—computer—scalp—wheelchair
( ) 8. The team will test with real patients to .
A. make profits from them B. prove the technology useful to them
C. make them live longer D. learn about their physical condition
( ) 9. Which of the following would be the best title for the test?
A. Switzerland,the BCI Research Center
B. New Findings about How the Brain Works
C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries

Astronauts' meals have come a long way from the freezedried powders and semiliquid pastes of decades ago：now US scientists want to grow vegetables in minigreenhouses on the moon.
Scientists say they are looking forward to a time when residents of future lunar or even Mar?tian outposts will be able to dine on fresh vegetables. Paragon Space Development Corporation has unveiled what it called the first step toward growing flowers―and eventually food―on the moon.
Paragon,which has partnered with NASA in previous experiments on the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station,calls it a "Lunar Oasis".
This is a sealed greenhouse that looks like a bell jar encased in a 46 cm triangular aluminum frame. It is designed to safely land a laboratory plant on the lunar surface,and protect it while it grows.
The miniature greenhouse is to be launched into space by Odyssey Moon Ltd.，a participant in the Google Lunar X Prize. This competition offers $ 20 million to any entrant who can launch,land and operate a rover on the lunar surface.
Paragon officials say future testing of the " Lunar Oasis" will be driven by Odyssey's flight schedule,which will not happen until 2012 at the earliest.
When it does lift off the greenhouse will contain the seeds of Brassica,a hardy plant related to Brussels sprouts and cabbage. Because Brassica goes from seed to flower in just 14 days,it can complete its life cycle in a single lunar night.
"Colonizing the Moon or Mars seems so far away,but it is important that we do this re?search now," Paragon president Jane Poynter said.
"It takes a long time to get a lot of research,and to get integrated,reliable efficient sys?tems before colonists move in ," she said.
( ) 5. What can we know from the text?
A. American astronauts have eaten fresh vegetables on the moon:
B. Astronauts' meals have been the freezedried powers and semiliquid pastes so far.
C. The sealed greenhouse looks like a semicircle jar.
D. It won't take long before colonists move in to get a lot of research.
( ) 6. The article implies that .
A. astronauts can grow flowers in space at present
B. Paragon and NASA will carry out the test separately
C. Lunar Oasis is a series of experiments carried out in space
D. the earliest testing of the Lunar Oasis may be in 2012
( ) 7. The underlined word "colonists" in the last paragraph probably has the meaning of
A. plants B. wild beasts C. human beings D. scientists
( ) 8. The seeds of Brassica will be contained in the greenhouse mainly because .
A. their life cycle is much shorter
B. they are more nutritious than other food
C. they are related to Brussels sprouts and cabbage
D. they are very delicious

In white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails,Jingqiu gives off an air of great "pure beauty" in Zhang Yimou's new movie Under the Hawthorn Tree.
The film tells the story of the sad romance of Jingqiu and a handsome young man named Laosan. Set at the end of the "cultural revolution" (1966-1976) ，the pair managed to fall in love although they came from different political environments.
Before it was released,moviegoers speculated on just what this "pure beauty" could be. Director Zhang complained of how long it had taken him to find the right girl for the part of Jingqiu―a character so innocent that she believed simply lying on the same bed with a man would make her pregnant.
It was 18-year-old Zhou Dongyu who stood out from the crowd. According to Zhang,Zhou had "eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside". Born of an ordinary worker's family,the Shijiazhuang girl was in her final year of high school and working hard for a place in an art college.
While some teenagers consider such " pure beauty" illusory,others believe that it speaks of something soulful.
Purity is all about the innocence that shines through from within,thinks 16-year-old Tan Mengxi of Nanjing.
"Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperienced. However,it doesn't mean an ignorant or naive person. So,a person is pure in his or her nature if he or she is always enthusiastic and able to deal with difficult matters independently. This purity doesn't pass with time," she said.
( ) 5. What image does Jingqiu give to audiences in the movie Under the Hawthorn Tree"!
A. A simple girl. B. A pure girl.
C. A romantic girl. D. A silent girl.
( ) 6. What kind of girls looks pure according to the passage?
A. A girl in white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails.
B. A girl has eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside.
C. A girl who was born into an ordinary worker's family.
D. A girl wears accessories and makeup.
( ) 7. What's the opinion of Tan Mengxi about purity?
A. It is of whether someone is ignorant or naive.
B. Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperi?enced.
C. It is of whether someone is always enthusiastic.
D. Purity is a matter of internal quality and doesn't pass with time.
( ) 8. Which do you think is the best title for the passage?
A. What Makes a Pure Girl?
