              I read a lot of newspapers for my job, but the one I liked best is called The Family News. Its editor is Heather Cook of Lisle, Illinois. She is only 12years old. Heather thinks all her relatives should keep up with what everyone else in the family is doing. So every few months, she prepares The Family News and after her mother has made 50copies, Heather mails them out. They are received by 73people in 9states, who range in age from 4to 94. Because of the paper, Heather's family is joined together in a way that most families are not.
              The reason I like The Family News so much is its happy stories. Most other papers depressed me with stories about cruelty of mankind. But The Family News never fails to bring a smile to my face. Here are a few of its items:
              •"Keven is in first place in his conference in golf. He is glad!"
              •"Math got his second tooth. He crawls around the floor to get where he wants to go."
              •"Grandma, Heather and Keven cleaned up the yard and burned the leaves in the back yard. It smoked so much that there was smoke all the way up the street."
              •"Steve got a new car. It is dark blue."
              "Heather started putting out The Family News when she was seven." said her mother, Jeanne. "I didn't expect it to last. But obviously it means a lot to her, and to everyone in our family. It is a kind of collection. My brother-in-law Tom gave money to buy stamps to send it out. And my uncle Frank, who never wrote to everyone, sent Heather a letter asking her to keep the paper going because it was the most important news he got."
              Heather doesn't look on her job as a hard work. "It's fun," she says. "Whenever I can, I call people up to see what's new. Then I put it in the next issue. The best thing is hearing how much it means to my family. I plan on doing this until I get really old - at least 18!"

              As an autistic(自闭的)teen, Niam Jain doesn't speak much. But ever since the 13-year-old picked up a paintbrush last summer, he's found a way to express himself, and the art world is listening.
              Niam, who lives in Toronto, was diagnosed(诊断) with autism at the age of two. Niam is in special education class and loves school.
              Last summer Nina Jain bought her son some art supplies to give him something to do.
              She never thought it would lead to a passion(酷爱) and a career, but soon after she posted Niam's first paintings online, a lot of people started buying them. Some were from family and friends. But most came from sharp-eyed collectors.
              Niam has already sold 46paintings across Canada and the US. He's make nearly $20,000, and the number keeps growing.
              "I don't know how he can do this because this is the work of a kind of successful mid-career painter," says a gallery owner after he pointed out Niam's mastery(精通) of the technique of mixing and layering(分层堆积) colours.
              "Since he has paintings and he loves to do what he does, he has a reason to get up in the morning and that's really, really important," Nina says.
              Morning and night, Niam can be found in his studio, sometimes painting for hours at a time, on more than one canvas at a time.
              For this artist, there's no way of knowing what his next creation will be or what will encourage him next. The future is a canvas for his imagination.

              Death Valley,one of America's great national parks,is a place of stiange and silent heauty. As beautiful as this place is, its name provides evidence(迹象)of very real danger. Death Valley is a land of beautiful yet dangerous extremes. There are mountains that reach more than 3,000meters into the sky. "There is a place called Badwater that is the lowest area of land in the Western Hemisphere. If there were water there,it would be 86meters below the level of the ocean.
              Death Valley can be dangerously cold during the winter months. Storms in the mountains can produce sudden flooding on the floor of the Valley. The air temperature during the summer has been as high as 57℃. The sun can heat the ground so that the temperature of the rocks and soil can be as high as 74℃. The extreme heat of Death Valley has ever killed people. It will continue to kill those who do not honor this extreme climate. Death Valley does not forgive those who are not careful.
              Death Valley is a good example of the violence(暴力)of nature. It contains evidence of several ancient volcanoes that caused huge explosions. Evidence of one of these explosions is called Ubehebe Crater. The explosion left a huge hole in the ground almost a kilometer and a half wide.
              In many areas of Death Valley it is easy to see where the ground has been pushed up strongly by movement deep in the Earth. This movement has created unusual and beautiful rock formations. Some are red. Others are dark brown,gray,yellow or black. Other areas of rock look as if some huge creature heavily broke and twisted the Earth to create unusual, sometimes frightening shapes.
              In other parts of Death Valley there are lines in the rock that show clearly that this area was deep under an ocean for many thousands of years. Much of the、alley is flat and very dry. In fact,scientists believe it is the driest place in the United States.
              Death Valley,part of the Great Mojave Desert,is a huge place. It extends more than 225kilometers across the southern part of California,and across the border with Nevada.
              (1) Which of the underlined word "twisted" in Paragraph 4most possibly means ______ .
              A. 提供
              B. 引起

              C. There might have been sea-born lives living in Death Valley.
              D. The ground has been pushed up hard by explosions of volcanoes.
              (3) Why were some people killed by Death Valley? ______
              A. Because they didn't respect Death Valley and thus they were punished.
              B. Because several volcanoes broke out and caused huge explosions.

              On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act would change their lives.
              Sarah didn't realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.
              Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85,000and there seems to be no end yet.
              That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And that's not all-thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris, who he had been unable to find for 27years.
              All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing-returning something that did not belong to him.

              B. Kind Man Set Up Special Page
              C. Homeless Man Returned Diamond Ring

              Mark Twain left school when he was twelve. He had little school education. In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, his penname.
              Mark Twain was born in 1835and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didn't like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi. He was nearly drowned nine times.
              After his father's death, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer.
