In the last 30 years, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has granted nearly 300,000 wishes worldwide to children battling life-threatening illnesses, throwing light on worlds darkened by diseases and bringing hope to children and their families.
With a foreword(序)by Make-A-Wish cofounder Frank Shankwitz, Once Upon A wish shares the wishes and stories of eight children.

Experience the story of Katelyn, a little girl, becoming a medical marvel(奇迹)after lighting all the odds stacked against her and making it her life-long goal to raise $3 million for St. Jude Hospital; read about a wheelchair-bound boy, Garrett, giving the gift of mobility to disabled Cambodian men and women; cheer for a little boy, Dakota, who collects millions of pennies each year to help others fight the disease he once fought. Become inspired and forever-changed by the generosity, hope, courage, and optimism of these children and their families and experience the power of two words - I wish.
Once Upon A Wish is a celebration of hope, revealing how wishes-come-true can become motivators and cherished gifts that will last a lifetime.

There was one shop in the town of Mufulira which was widely known for its racial discrimination. It was a drugstore. While Europeans were served at the counter, a long line of Africans queued at the window and often not only were kept waiting but were treated rudely by the shop assistants. One day I was determined to make a public protest (抗议) against this kind of thing,and many of the schoolboys in my class followed me to the store. I simply went into the shop and asked the manager politely for some medicine. As soon as he saw me standing in the place where only European customers were allowed to stand he shouted at me in a bastard(怪声怪气的)language which is only used by a boss when speaking to his servants. I stood at the counter and politely requested in proper English that I should be served The manager became angry and said, “Even if you stand there till Christmas, I will never serve you. ”
I went to the District Commissioner’s office. Fortunately, he was out, for he was one of the old school; however, I saw a young District officer, who was a friend of mine.He was very concerned to hear my story and told me that all I had to do was come to him personally and he would buy my medicine for me. I protested that was not good enough.I asked him to accompany me back to the store and to make a protest to the manager. This he did, and I well remember him saying to the manager, “Here is Mr. Kaunda,who is a responsible member of the Urban Advisory Council, and you treat him like a common servant. ” The manager of the drugstore apologized and
said, “If only he had introduced himself and explained who he was, then, of course, I should have given him proper service. ”
I had to explain once again that he had missed my point. Why should I have to introduce myself every time I went into a store? Why should I have to buy my medicine by going to a European friend? I wanted to prove that ally man of any color, whatever his position,should have the right to go into any shop and buy what he wanted. After all, the money which I paid across the counter was exactly the same money as was paid by a European customer.

Starting school late should be the guiding principle for high schools around the Puget Sound District. Next year, Seattle’s Nathan Hale High School will join the growing. list of schools starting a little later to allow students an hour’s extra sleep. As a national research has shown, a later start time benefits students both in learning and physical development.
For school leaders, it isn’t easy to make the change. Bus schedules have to be rearranged, sometimes presenting the districts with a choice of keeping traditional starting times at high schools or forcing elementary students to start much earlier. Some sports practice and event schedules can also he affected.
Around Puget Sound District, the Bainbridge Island School and Inglemoor High School and Mercer Island High School have either moved starting time later or created flexible schedules for students. Two of the Seattle district’s high schools, Summit and The Center School, already start at 9 a. m.
There are excellent reasons for such moves. Scientists have found that teenagers’ bodies usually aren’t ready for sleep until around 11 p. m. And the teens can sleep deeply until 8 a.m. A study in Minnesota found that students earned slightly better grades and experienced less depression . There was also a significant improvement in school dropout rates. Other studies have suggested that teenagers with enough sleep relate better to their peers and their parents. These advantages are increasingly well known. Nathan Hale officials have been tracking the studies for six years. But change isn’t happening rapidly, if at all.
Some of the lack of rush to make changes comes from comfort with the existing condition. Parents - like the school leaders - are used to the present schedules. In Edina, Minnesota, however, parents quickly came to like the 8:30 a. m. start. A survey showed that 92 percent of parents preferred the schools’ new time to the previous 7:20 a. m. class bell.
Any school action that can deal with such difficult problems as depression and dropouts , while helping students with grades and getting along with parents, is one that is worthy of serious attention in every school district. Teenagers have adapted their sleep needs to school schedules for generations. It’s time that more schools put the students’ needs first.
28. Which of the following statements is NOT true about starting school late?
A. It is in agreement with teens’ biological clock.
B. It makes more learners interested in school.
C. It helps students to get on well with each other.
D. It makes students much lower in spirits at school.
29.What is the writer’s attitude toward the change in school time?
A. He is in favor of it. B. He seems to object to it.
C. He is unconcerned with it. D. He is doubtful about it.
30. We can infer from the passage that_____ .
A. starting school early can improve students’ health
B. some schools haven’t put starting school late into practice
C. sleeping late can provide the students more time to read books
D. more parents are supporting the traditional starting school time
31. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?
A. Better Late Than Early B. On Keeping Late Hours
C. The Earlier, the Better D. Better Late Than Never
D
A German study suggests that people who were too optimistic about their future actually faced greater risk of disability or death within 10 years than those pessimists(悲观者) who expected their future to be worse.
The paper, published this March in Psychology and Aging, examined health and welfare surveys from roughly 40,000 Germans between ages 18 and 96. The surveys were conducted every year from 1993 to 2003.
Survey respondents (受访者) were asked to estimate their present and future life satisfaction on a scale of 0 to 10, among other questions.
The researchers found that young adults (age 18 to 39) routinely overestimated their future life satisfaction, while middle-aged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future. Adults of 65 and older, however, were far more likely to underestimate their future life satisfaction. Not only did they feel more satisfied than they thought they would, the older pessimists seemed to suffer a lower ratio (比率) of disability and death for the study period.
“We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a greater risk of death within the following decade,” wrote Frieder R. Lang, a professor at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg.
Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future.
“Seeing a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions (预防措施),” the authors wrote.
Surprisingly, compared with those in poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline. Also, the researchers said that higher income was related to a greater risk of disability.
The authors of the study noted that there were limitations to their conclusions. Illness, medical treatment and personal loss could also have driven health outcomes.
However, the researchers said a pattern was clear. “We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic,” the authors concluded.
32. According to the study, who made the most accurate prediction of their future life satisfaction?
A. Optimistic adults. B. Middle-aged adults.
C. Adults in poor health. D. Adults of lower income.
33. Pessimism may be positive in some way because it causes people ______.
A. to fully enjoy their present life
B. to estimate their contribution accurately
C. to take measures against potential risks
D. to value health more highly than wealth
34. How do people of higher income see their future?
A. They will earn less money.
B. They will become pessimistic.
C. They will suffer mental illness.
D. They will have less time to enjoy life.
35. What is the clear conclusion of the study?
A. Pessimism guarantees chances of survival.
B. Good financial condition leads to good health.
C. Medical treatment determines health outcomes.
D. Expectations of future life satisfaction decline with age.

Yesterday I attended an alumni reunion(同学聚会). I was very happy to see my old friends, that I hadn’t met for years. So I drank a lot. After the party, I drive home though my classmate had tried to persuade me not to. I always believed that as a skilled driver, drinking a little did no harm to driving. On my way to home, the wine began to take effect. All of sudden, I cracked my car against a sign on the road. Unluckily, a policeman came towards me.

You can end up hurt yourself, and other innocent people life.” Till then, I realized that the effects of drunk driving could be deadly for all those involved.

Dear Headmaster,
I’m Li Hua in Senior Two. I’m writing to tell you something bad among us students.
Recently, it’s very common for some students to copy others’ homework. Asking around, I find several reasons responsible for this phenomenon. Firstly, we have to do too much homework, some of which is too difficult for us. secondly, some students do so because they are too lazy to think on their own and show no interest in studying. Thirdly, some other students copy others’ homework both to finish the tasks and please their teachers.
As students ,we should attach great importance to doing homework. In fact, homework is left for students to make what we learn clearer and better. And also it’s important for teachers to
know whether their students learn a lot in class. Therefore, those students should make full use of their time to work hard and do their homework honestly. My suggestion for our school is that strict rules should be made to punish those copying other’s homework.
Personally, copying is a bad behavior. Students should be educated to hold a correct attitude towards homework. Honesty is the most important quality of a person. We should keep in mind that “No pains, no gains.” Only by doing homework carefully can we make progress in our studies.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
