While her mother was away for a moment, the inquisitive baby reached up to a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water all over her tiny body.An ambulance was called and rushed the baby to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammies body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. The doctors could tell immediately that Ammies best chance of survival was a specialized burns unit(科) some miles away at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. There, using tissue taken from unburned areas of Ammies body, surgeons performed complex skin grafts（移植）to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation that took about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie had 12 more operations to repair her body.When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age four, other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldnt play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,”she recalls. “Some children refused to become friends because of that.”Today, age 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further operations. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims.Ammies parents Ruby, a funeral director and Gibby, a policeman, have been a great support. “They told me if people had a problem with my burns, the problem was theirs not mine,” says Ammie. “They taught me to cope with other peoples reactions and constantly reminded me I was valued and loved. Ammies positive philosophy（人生观） means she is now in demand with burns organizations, helping younger patients build their self-esteem to live with permanent scars.“Now she is a member of the Scottish Burned Childrens Club, which a charity set up last year.” says Donald Todd, chairman of the club and a senior burns nurse at Edinburghs Royal Hospital for Sick Children, “Ammie provides so much encouragement for younger ones. She is upbeat and outgoing and a perfect role model for them.”This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Centre in Cambridgeshire for the charitys first summer camp . Ill show them how to shrug off unkind stares from others, she says. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops and she plans to show the youngsters at summer camp that they can too. I do not go to great lengths to hide my burns scars, she says. “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”56. Ammie was taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary because _ . A. it was the nearest hospital away from her home B. it was a hospital specializing in childhood disease C. only there can skin grafts be performed D. it has more advanced and specialized techniques to cure burns57. How many operations will Ammie have to receive altogether? A. 12 B. 13 C. 14 D. 1558. The underlined phrase “shrug off” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _ . A. perform B. ignore C. accept D. tolerate59. Which of the following best describes Ammies? A. Strong-minded, optimistic and helpfulB. Shy, pessimistic and discouraged C. Fashionable, sensitive and easygoing D. Careful, confident and intelligentB If you feel at present that you dont have enough friends in your life, one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the relationships you already have. Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and commitment. Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we dont get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal（叙旧）with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have. Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?If you havent seen much of them lately， is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?If the main reason you havent been getting together with the people you already know is that you have gotten too busy, take a good look at how you spend your time. Compare it with your real values and priorities（优先考虑的事）in life. Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?If you have become too busy for friends, why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over-committed because you never say “No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities. Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you.If you really want to keep friends in your life, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them.60The author mainly discusses _in this passage.Ahow to spend our spare timeBhow to balance friendship and workCwhether we should keep friendshipDwhether we should invite friends to dinner61Which of the following doesnt indicate a good relationship?AYou have someone to count on when you are in trouble.BYou have someone to have close talks with.CYou have fun when you are with someone. DYou feel depressed with others in life.62What does the underlined word “delegated”（para.7）probably mean?Areplaced BappointedCdefeated Dhandled63The reason why you have become too busy for friends may be the following except that_.Ayou feel it difficult to keep friendship Byou spend too much time seeking material toys in your lifeCyou stick to doing everything all by yourselfDyou never refuse whatever other people ask you to doPart-time Front Desk PositionFuse Fitness is looking for a part-time front desk receptionist at our new Carlsbad location.

Interview Dressing TipsDTime out, extra chores and taking away privileges are more useful forms of disciplining (惩戒)naughty children than spanking or hitting, according to a study on Wednesday.About 94 percent of parents use some form of physical punishment to teach their two-year-olds right from wrong, according to research studies. But psychologists say it could lead to later emotional and behavioral problems.Even children who were only spanked some of the time are more likely to show signs of sadness or have less confidence. “The key is to be fair and do the same thing each time. Doing something like hitting a child that seems cruel at best doesnt help and can put a child at risk for problems,” said Dr Paul Frick, of the University of New Orleans in L
