When Jason’s parents saw him for the first time, they were shocked (震惊). This lovely little baby with shining blue eyes and curly hair was born disabled (残疾的). But soon the young couple accepted this fact: Jason’s arms are just half without hands and his legs aren’t fully grown either. They even forgot to think of him as disabled.
At the age of six, he told his mother he wanted to get down from the prosthetic (假肢) and play with other kids. This was the last time Jason had worn them. He now has an electric wheelchair (轮椅), but he never uses it at home or when it is easy for him to move using only his body.
Jason learned handwriting and coloring at school, holding the pen between the ends of his arms. He also learned to eat with forks at home. When he was ten, he fell in love with football. He never had a pair of shoes in his life because of the shape of his feet. He only wore socks on the football field. He never won a match, but he refused to give up.

Some etiquette (礼仪) in modern life
Do you often use a cell phone? Do you take the subway to school every day? These items make our modern life easier. But do you know how we should behave properly while using them? The following suggestions might be helpful.
For cell phone users
◆  Keep your voice down when you make a phone call in public. Shouting on the phone may make others feel uncomfortable. And you’d better not use it during an appointment(约会).
◆ Stop sending messages or playing games with your cell phone at a dinner or a party. It’s a good time to communicate(交流) with your family and friends.
◆ Don’t make or answer a call while driving. It is not only very dangerous for both you and your passengers but also against the law.
For subway passengers
◆ You are supposed to wait in line while buying tickets and getting on the subway.
◆ You’re not allowed to eat, drink or smoke on the subway train. The smell and noise may trouble others. It’s our duty to keep the train clean and tidy. Besides, smoking is bad for health.
◆ You can’t take pets on the train. As we all know, animals may spread diseases(传播疾病) and get the train dirty.
◆ You’d better not lie across the subway seats even if the train isn’t allowed. Offering your seat to someone who needs it is regarded as good manners.

第三节  回答问题 阅读下面的材料，然后根据材料内容回答问题。（共5小题，计10分）【2014湖南长沙】
   The World Wide Web (www万维网) turned 25 years old on March 12th. It has become a very important part in our daily lives. We can’t imagine living without the Web, the short for of the World Wide Web.
   In 1898, a British engineer named Time Berners-Lee came up with the idea of the Web. It is a group of ‘pages’ of information that are connected to each other around the world. That is the very beginning of the Web. Since then, the Web has greatly changed the way people live. With a click (点击) of a mouse we can read news, buy things, make friends ad learn anything we’re interested in.
   Now, 25 years after its birth, how will the Web influence life in the future? Scientists believe there are both advantages and disadvantages.
   A growing Web will help build ‘better relationships’ between different cultures. Also in the future, everyday items could be connected to the Web. We could share plenty of information to make our daily lives more convenient (方便的). So one day in the future, your front door could send you a message, ‘Dear sir, everyone has left the house, but I’m still open!’
   But scientists warn (警告) us that if we share personal information on the Internet it could get into the wrong hands.
   ‘It’s not wise to spend a whole day in front of the screen. People need to get close to nature and enjoy the sun. Never be controlled by the Internet.’ Said Berners-Lee.
