Miya volunteered abroad in Costa Rica with World Endeavors assisting at an orphanage(孤兒院)and teaching English at a school.

As a freshman at Yale University, Miya had plans to go to medical school.Knowing that her next two summers would be occupied doing research, Miya decided to go abroad the summer after her freshman year.“I wanted to improve my command of the Spanish language and learn about the culture and history of another country,” she explained.In the summer of 2014, Miya volunteered for six weeks in the World Endeavors program in Atenas, Costa Rica, working in an orphanage and teaching English to children in grades one through six.

“A long time before I left, I had positive expectations for the trip,” said Miya.But as the date grew closer she found herself getting more and more nervous.“I thought, what if my host family doesn’t like me? What if I get sick?”

Her fears, as fears often are, turned out to be unfounded.“The people were so supportive and loving,” said Miya.“I felt like I was part of the family.”

Miya’s host family had a large network of cousins who all lived within shouting distance. The family would cook together, and at night would go dancing, talk or eat ice cream.She noted that the World Endeavors staff on location—Diego and Mercedes, and Mercedes’ husband and daughter –were particularly helpful, taking her right to her neighborhood from the airport, and checking up periodically to make sure everything was going well.

While her nights were spent dancing, cooking, and talking with her host family, Miya’s days were occupied with the children of her host city.“I would teach in the morning, and work in the orphanage in the afternoon,” said Miya, whose placements were within walking distance from her host family.While the children were a lot of work, Miya felt a strong connection to the kids in the orphanage.

Miya noted that Costa Rica is one of the more developed countries in Central America. A nearby Internet café, for example, helped her to stay in touch with her family while she was away.And now, back in the United States, the Internet helps her keep in touch with her host family.Their correspondence continues in Spanish.And her host parents, Rosario and Jorge, recently sent Miya a Christmas card through the mail.

Back at school, Miya continues to pursue her instinct to improve education through volunteering. She participates in a mentoring group and works on a community health education program for high school students.Her time in Costa Rica, she says, “fits right into my interests in global health.”

Our risk of cancer rises rapidly as we age.So it makes sense that the elderly should be routinely screened for new tumors (腫瘤) or doesn’t it?

While such tracking of cancer is a good thing in general, researchers are increasingly questioning whether all of this testing is necessary for the elderly.With the percentage of people over age 65 expected to nearly double by 2050, it s important to weigh the health benefits of screening against the risks and costs of routine testing.

In many cases, screening can lead to additional examinations and operations to remove cancer, which can cause side effects, while the cancers themselves may be slow-growing and may not cause serious health problems in patients’ remaining years.But the message that everyone must screen for cancer has become so ingrained (根深蒂固的) that when health care experts recommended that women under 50 and over 74 stop screening for breast cancer, it caused a noisy reaction among doctors, patients and social groups.

It’s hard to uproot deeply-held beliefs about cancer screening with scientific data.Certainly, there are people over age 75 who have had cancers detected by routine screening, and gained several extra years of life because of treatment.And clearly, people over age 75 who have other risk factors for cancer, such as a family history or previous personal experience with the disease, should continue to get screened regularly.But for the rest, the risk of cancer, while increased at the end of life, must be balanced with other factors like remaining life expectancy.

A recent study suggests that doctors start to make more objective decisions about who will truly benefit from screening—especially considering the explosion of the elderly.

It’s not an easy calculation to make, but one that makes sense for patients.Dr.Otis Brawley said, “Many doctors are ordering these tests purely to cover themselves from medical disputes.We need to think about the wise use of health care, which means making some difficult decisions with elderly patients, and going against the misguided belief that when it comes to health care, more is always better.”

1.Routine cancer screening for the elderly people makes sense because ______.

A.it is believed to contribute to a long life

B.it is part of their health care package

C.they are more sensitive about the health

D.they are in greater danger of tumor growth

2.How do some researchers now look at routine cancer screening for the elderly?

A.It adds too much to their medical bills.

B.They are doubtful about necessity.

C.It helps increase their life expectancy.

D.They think it does more harm than good.

3.What is the traditional view about women screening for breast cancer?

A.It is a must for adult women.

B.It applies to women over 50.

C.It is intended for young women.

D.It doesn’t apply to women over 74.

4.What does the writer say is the general view about health care?

A.Better care, longer life

B.Prevention is better than cure.

C.Better early than late.

D.The more, the better.

5.Why do many doctors advise routine screening for cancer?

A.They want to take advantage of the medical care system.

B.They want to protect themselves against medical disputes.

C.They want data for medical research.

D.They want their patients to suffer less.

Chinese parents are very generous when it comes to educating their children.Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the US or Australia. They also want their children to take extra course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start in life.The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is.So parents will spend unreasonable amount of money on education.Even poor couples will buy computers for their sons or daughters.

However, what most parents fail to see is that the best education they can give to their children is usually very cheap.

Parents can see that their children’s skills vary, skilled in some areas while poor in others.What most parents fail to realize though, is that today’s children lack self respect and self confidence.

The reasons are that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teaching them the most important skills: they need to be confident, happy and clever.

Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.

Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life.Cooking demands patience and time.It is an enjoyable but difficult experience.A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully.His result, a well cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of confidence.These activities are not only teaching a child to work, but rather to think, and to use his mind. And that is more important.

Our “Mommy and Me” time began two years ago. My next-door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down.“I wish I could take one of my children out alone,” said Christie.

Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I’ll watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine, I’ll take someone out.

The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of “Mommy and Me” time. Christie’s daughter, McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “She’s like a different child when there’s no one else around,”Christie shared with me quietly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didn’t have to make an effort to gain attention.

Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone times. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently. My stuttering (口吃) son, Tom, doesn’t stutter once during our activities since he doesn’t have to struggle for a chance to speak. And the other son, Sam, who’s always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.

The “Mommy and Me” time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child-talking, sharing, and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves (應(yīng)得到) to be an only child at least once in a while.

1.What is the text mainly about?

A. The experience of the only child being with mother.

B. The advantage of spending time with one child at a time.

C. The happy life of two families.

D. The basic needs of children.

2.Right after McKenzie came back, the other children were ______.

A. happy B. curious

C. regretful D. friendly

3.What is one of the changes the author finds in her children?

A. The daughter acts like a leader.

B. Sam holds her hand more often.

C. The boys become better followers.

D. Tom has less difficulty in speaking.

4.The author seems to believe that ______.

A. having brothers and sisters is fun

B. it’s tiring to look after three children

C. every child needs parents’ full attention

D. parents should watch others’ children
