what had held him back before?the next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. although our times together became easier over the years, i never felt closer to him at that moment. after so many years, im at last seeing another side of my father. and in so doing. im delighted with my new friend. my dad, in his mew home in arizona, is back to me from where he was. bincreasingly, americans are becoming their own doctors, by going online to diagnose their symptoms, order home health tests or medical devices, or even self-treat their illnesses with drugs from internet pharmacies(药店). some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical care, especially if they lack health insurance. or they may stay because they find it embarrassing to discuss their weight, alcohol consumption or couch potato habits. patients may also fear what they might learn about their health, or they distrust physicians because of negative experiences in the past. but playing doctor can also be a deadly game.every day, more than six million americans turn to the internet for medical answers. most of them arent nearly skeptical enough of what they find. a 2002 survey by the pew internet & american life project found that 72 percent of those surveyed believe all or most of what they read on health websites. they shouldnt. look up “headache”, and the chances of finding reliable and complete information, free from a motivation for commercial gain, are only one in ten, reports an april 2005 brown medical school study. of the l69 websites the researchers rated, only l6 scored as “high quality”. recent studies found faulty facts about all sorts of other disorders, causing one research team to warn that a large amount of incomplete, inaccurate and even dangerous information exists on the internet.the problem is that most people dont know the safe way to surf the web. “they use a search engine like google, get l8 trillion choices and start clicking. but thats risky, because almost anybody can put up a site that looks authoritative(权威的), so its hard to know whether what youre reading is reasonable or not, ” says dr. sarah bass from the national cancer institute.25. according to the text, an increasing number of americans_. .a. are suffering from mental disorders b. like to play deadly games with doctorsc. turn to internet pharmacies for help d. are skeptical about surfing medical websitescone reaction to all the concern about tropical deforestation（毁林） is a blank stare that asks the question, since i dont live there, what does it have to do with me?the answer is that your way of life, wherever you live in the world, is tied to the tropics in many ways. if you live in a house, wash your hair, eat fruits and vegetables, drink soda, or drive a car, you can be certain that you are affected by the loss of tropical forests.biologically, we are losing the richest regions on earth when, each minute, a piece of tropical forest, the size of ten city blocks, disappears. as many as five million species of plants, animals, and insects (40 to 50 percent of all living things) live there, and are being lost faster than they can be found and described. their loss is immeasurable.take rubber for example. for many uses, only natural rubber from trees will do. synthetics are not good enough. today over half the worlds commercial rubber is produced in malaysia and indonesia, while the amazons rubber industry produces much of the worlds four million tons. and rubber is an important material in making gloves, balloons, footwear and many sporting goods. thousands of other tropical plants are valuable for their industrial use. many scientists strongly believe that deforestation contributes to the greenhouse effect - or heating of the earth from increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. as we destroy forests, we lose their ability to change carbon dioxide into oxygen.carbon dioxide levels could double within the next half-century, warming the earth by as much as 4.5 degrees. the result? a partial melt-down of polar ice caps, raising sea levels as much as 24 feet; even 15 feet could threaten anyone living within 35 miles of the coast. unbelievable? maybe. but scientists warn that by the time we realise the severe effects of tropical deforestation, it will be 20 years too late.can tropical deforestation affect our everyday lives? now, you should have got the answer.29the underlined word synthetics probably means_.a. man-made material b. tropical materialsc. natural rubber d. commercial rubber30according to the passage, which of the following is not true?a. the forests are losing their function in turning carbon dioxide into oxygen.b. many of our daily uses are related to the tropical forests.c. tropical plants can be used to make industrial products.d. high carbon dioxide levels will make the earth warmer.31the authors attitude towards the tropical deforestation is _ .a. puzzling b. opposed c. supporting d. cold32which of the following might be the best title for the passage?a. tropical forests b. the value of tropical forestsc. tropical forests and our life d. the greenhouse effectsdaquatic adventures!help us get ready for showtime!trainer programwhat does it take to work with seals or sea lions?
