The Stranger Who Changed My Life
It was a sunny morning in the spring of 1966. I was driving a taxi，looking for a customer. While passing New York Hospital，I found a man running down the hospital steps，waving at me.
I stopped. The man reached the taxi and jumped in. "The Airport，please," he said. As always，I wondered about my passenger. Was this man a talker?After a few moments，he started saying，"How do you like driving a taxi?"
"It's OK," I said. "I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes."
"What do you do?" I asked.
"I am a doctor at New York Hospital."
Many times during long rides，I'd developed a good relationship with my passengers and received very good advice from them. This time I decided to ask for his help.
"Could I ask a favor of you?" He didn't answer. "I have a son，15，a good kid. He wants a job this summer. Is it possible that you get one for him?"
He still wasn't talking，and I was starting to feel foolish. Finally，he said，"Well，my students have a summer research project. Maybe he could join in. Have him send me his school record."
He left his address and paid me. It was the last time I ever saw him.
Robbie sent off his grades the next morning. And gradually this incident was forgotten. Two weeks later，when I arrived home from work，Robbie handed me a letter. He was informed to call Dr. Plum for an interview.
Robbie got the job. The following summer，Robbie worked at the hospital again，but this time，he was given more responsibility. Then，he worked at the hospital for a third summer and gradually developed a love of medical profession.

Talk to Your Kids about Their Eating Habits Carefully
Weight is never an easy subject. It can be risky for parents to raise the issue of eating habits and weight with their kids.
"No kid ever lost weight because his mother told him he was fat," a friend told me when I was worried about my son's weight.
It turns out she was right，according to a new study. The study was directed by Dr. Berge at University of Minnesota. She found that kids whose parents discussed eating in a healthy way were less likely to have eating problems. But 64% of the kids whose parents focused on their weight turned to unhealthy eating behaviors. Some kids went on extreme diets，and others even ate no food. So eating disorders were caused. Things were worse when fathers joined in the discussions with their daughters and focused on weight. "Fathers should never comment on their daughters' weight," says Berge. Instead，she suggests，fathers should focus on their daughters' interests. That can help them feel loved and confident enough to work on their weight issues.
How should parents talk to kids about eating behaviors?According to Berge，they should avoid focusing on how much their kids weigh. They should talk to them about being healthy. Don't compare them with others. Ideally，both parents should share the responsibility. If that's not possible，choose the parent whose words cause the least amount of stress and who demonstrates healthy eating.
11.The writer's friend advised her not to_____.
A．worry about her son's weight
B．take the risk of gaining weight
C．change her own eating habits
D．talk to her son about his weight
12.The study found that some kids had fewer eating problems because they_____.
A．learned to eat healthily
B．took part in the study
C．focused on their weight
D．believed the scientists
13.When told about their fatness，some kids_____.
A．felt helpless
B．became angry
C．began to eat no food
D．refused to take any advice
14.If a father focuses on his daughter’s interests，she will feel_____.
A．amused
B．encouraged
C．surprised
D．challenged
15.When taking to their kids about eating behaviors，parents should_____.
A．focus on being healthy
B．use short and simple words
C．respect their kids' views
D．compare their kids with others
第三某些：概括段落大意和补全句子（第16～25题，每题1分，共10分） 
阅读下面短文，请完毕短文后2项测试任务：（1）从第16～20题后所给6个选项中为第①～⑤段每段选取1个对的小标题；（2）从第21～25题后所给6个选项中选取5个对的选项，分别完毕每个句子，并将所选答案代码（指A、B、C、D、E或F)填在答题纸相应位置上。
Plagiarism（抄袭）
①You just found some good stuff on the Web for your science report. You copy a paragraph and paste it into your report. Then you continue your research. But you just made a big mistake. You committed plagiarism. Plagiarism is when you use someone else's words or ideas and pretend that they are yours. It's not allowed in school，college，or beyond.
②The word "plagiarism" comes from Latin. It means stealing a person's ideas. But it's not always easy to tell what is plagiarism and what is not. Sometimes，it's accidental. You really intended to do your own work，yet ended up with some sentences that sound just like something you’ve read.
③Though plagiarism can be accidental，it's sometimes done on purpose. That's just being lazy. By copying whole paragraphs from different places，you don't have to spend the time thinking about the subject，gathering your own thoughts about it，and then putting them into original words. Cut，paste，and you're done.
④Most schools are pretty strict about plagiarism. If you're caught，your graduation will be delayed or worse. At the very least，you're probably going to fail the assignment. When you're older and in college，some schools will kick out students who plagiarize. When you're kicked out of one college，it can be hard to get into another.
⑤To be on the safe side，always make it clear where the information comes from. You need to write references. That's a list of the sources you used for a project or report. To do that，you'll need to know the author，the title，and the date it was published. If you write something really great，maybe some day someone will quote you in a report.
Task　1
16._____ 17._____ 18._____ 19._____ 20._____
A．Purposeful plagiarism
B．The cost of plagiarism
C．The definition of plagiarism
D．Accidental plagiarism
E．Detecting plagiarism
F．Avoiding plagiarism

21.You commit plagiarism when you_____.
22.Sometimes it is hard to tell whether_____.

A．you will be punished
B．you have great ideas
C．quote you in their reports
D．take others' ideas as yours
