A
The Oklahoma teen’s eyes were covered by two blindfolds (眼罩) for the big surprise: being reunited with her father, James, after 12-year separation.
“I had actually discussed with her the night before at a restaurant and talked over the details of where we would go and how we would pull it off,” said Amanda, Rory Beth’s mother.
A video shows Amanda led her blindfolded daughter out of their car and guided her across the parking lot of Broken Arrow Lanes in Broken Arrow.
Little did she know, her father was on the sidewalk holding a birthday cake that read, “Happy Birthday Rory Beth, Love Dad.” When the teen slowly pulled down her blindfolds, she was dumbfounded. Both the father and daughter stood silently looking at each other until James finally walked over and hugged her. James only broke their embrace to look at his daughter and hold her face. “There were definitely lots of tears from myself, her brothers, and even a few bystanders,” said Amanda.
James was a truck driver who spent a lot of time on the road, and Amanda split with him when Rory Beth was a baby. “It was hard to figure out how to make it work,” Amanda said. Amanda felt Rory Beth was now old enough to understand and to ask any questions she may have, so the reunion happened.
The birthday surprise was on June 4, and the father and daughter had seen each other again since, even celebrating Father’s Day together. Amanda said her daughter and James were both delighted to be reunited “She’s already calling him ‘daddy’ and tells him that she loves him,” Amanda said. “They’re both very committed.”
1、What caused Rory Beth to be separated from her father for 12 years?
A．Her parents’ divorce.
B．Her father’s working as a taxi driver.
C．The misunderstanding between them.
D．Her preference for living with her mother.
2、Why did Rory Beth reunite with her father?
A．Her father was eager to see her.
B．She had many questions to ask her father.
C．She was old enough to recognize her father.
D．Her mother thought it was time for her to see her father.
3、What does the underlined word “dumbfounded” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Tired. B．Scared.
C．Shocked. D．Confused.
4、What do we know from the text?
A．The video about the reunion was shot by James himself.
B．Rory Beth’s brothers accompanied her to see her father.
C．Rory Beth called James “daddy” on her 12th birthday.
D．Amanda had a conversation with Rory Beth on June 3.

B
Crossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don't even notice that they're doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.
A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance(阻力), making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health problems. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don't keep your legs crossed.
Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.
So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor. Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.
1、What can we learn about crossing one's legs?
A．It is a very bad social habit.
B．It is usually practiced on purpose.
C．It can do harm to people's health.
D．It can make others feel uncomfortable.
2、According to the study, sitting with your legs crossed can______.
A．affect your blood pressure
B．resist gravity effectively
C．lead to heart attacks easily
D．improve the function of legs
3、In the third paragraph "pins and needles" probably means______.
A．slight sharp pains
B．being a little nervous
C．serious muscle injuries
D．being highly flexible
4、What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To compare common habits.
B．To give readers some advice.
C．To evaluate effects of an experiment.
D．To introduce research methods.
