Most of my friends dont even notice the chair any more. Im just the girl theyve been friends with. My friends are good at lifting me in and out of my small car when we go to the movies. We even took the car to the dance. One of the boys helped me out of the car and all the girls helped me to fix my dress. Even in the crowded school elevator, theres always someone around to carry me.There are a lot of things I cant do for myself, such as lifting my arms, dressing myself, and feeding myself. Even so, I do very well at school and I always tell myself that Im just like any other kid in my school.The truth is that my parents raised me to be proud of my disabilities. There are plenty of things I wish I could do differently. I wanted to be a doctor. But thats not going to work out. So Ill be a lawyer instead. I also wanted to dance and play soccer. My parents taught me that Im like this for a reasonto educate people and show them that this disease affects my bonesnot my brain. My friend Erica once said to me, “Kennedy, youre not disabled. You just cant walk.”BKings College Summer SchoolKings College Summer School is an annual( 每年的) training program for high school students at all levels who want to improve their English.

Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. Its bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.29._,ourworldisbecomingmuchsmaller.A.ThankstosciencedevelopmentB.BecauseoftheriseinpollutionC.BecausetheearthisbeingpolluteddayandnightD.Becausetheearthisblownawaybythewindeveryyear30.Hundredsofyearsago,lifewas_itistoday.A.muchharderthanB.aseasyasC.mucheasierthanD.ashardas31.Airpollutionisthemostseriouskindofpollutionbecause_.A.itmakesmuchnoiseB.itsbadforalllivingthingsintheworldC.itmakesourriversandlakesdirtyD.itmakesusangrymoreeasily32.WhichofthefollowingisNOTtrue?A.Thepollutionoftheearthgrowsasfastastheworldpopulationdoes.B.Manycountriesaremakingrulestofightpollution.C.Theproblemofpollutionisnotsoseriousbecausetherearenotsomanypeoplelivingontheearth.D.Ifpeoplecouldgotoworkbybusorbikeinsteadofcarormotorbike,itwouldbehelpfulinfightingagainsttheproblemofSO2.DParacutin was born in Mexico in February, 1943.
