29、m computers to high chairs, clothing to books, stationery (文具) to medical provision, cupboards to dining sets. They send us a list of their needs and we try to match it with the resource we have in stock.How do we operate?Crossroads itself also operates on a low budget. We do not buy the goods we se

30、nd, They are donated. Similarly, rather than raising funds for freight (货运), we ask transport companies to donate their services. Nobody in our organization receives a salary. Even our full-time staff work on a voluntary basis. Those that donate goods and services: Factories Hospitals Educational In

31、stitutions Transport Companies Manufacturers Hotels Householders Other Charities OfficesOne resource that we are always in need of is people, while we receive large quantities of goods and there is never a short supply of requests for them, we are always in need of hands to help sort and prepare the

Crossroads has collected less goods than neededBTwo years ago, the Funk family of suburban Chicago adopted a Chinese baby girl who had been a

38、bandoned on a sidewalk near a Yangzhou textile factory.Last year and halfway across the United States, the Ramirez family of suburban Miami adopted a girl who had been abandoned a week later on the same spot.Both families named their daughters Mia. It turns out, a first name and Chinese heritage are

39、nt the only things the three-year-olds have in common. The girls mothersHolly Funk and Diana Ramirezmet on a website for parents who had gone through international adoptions. After a flurry of emails comparing photographs and biographical details, DNA testing proved the families suspicions: The girl

40、s are probably fraternal (手足般的) twins.“I was in shock,” said Ramirez, who lives with her husband Carlos in Pembroke Pines, Florida. “Well, now this is for real.”The Internet and Web groups revolving around international orphanages are increasingly being used to link adopted children with biological

41、kin(亲属). The site that the Funks and Ramirezes used has a membership of 137 people, with 15 sets of twins and seven sets of siblings whose relationships have been confirmed.At a reunion on Friday at Chicagos OHare International Airport, Mia Diamond Funk Mia Hanying Ramirez shyly surveyed each other,

42、 then reached for each others hand.DNA tests established an 85 percent probability that the girls are at least half sisters. Scientists did not have a biological parent to test and reach a greater certainty, but given their ages and physical similarities, experts say it is likely they are fraternal

43、twins.Douglas and Holly Funk hope to take Mia to Miami in October. Both sets of parents say they are committed to staying in touch and often let the twins talk to each other on the phone.60.

DNA tests are still not accurate enough B. the two girls were born by different parents C. the DNA of a biological parent is still missing D. one girl is born a week later than

46、the other63. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Adopted Twins Reunited on Internet B. Adopted Twins Live happily in the US.C. Suspicion Turned into RealityD. The Story of Adopted Twins and Their ParentsC“I drink caffeine to stay awake. It has positive effects on me. Im healthy, and ther

47、es nothing wrong with me,” said Sarah Green, a freshman, who consumes many caffeine drinks to stay awake in completing the many tasks in her busy schedule.Caffeine is known to have many positive and negative consequences, and now there might be an additional positive effect may have been discovered.

48、 A study suggests that a skin lotion(洗液) containing caffeine, which is also found in green tea, may reduce the risk of skin cancer. Two lotion tests were conducted on hairless mice that were exposed to high levels of ultraviolet radiation (紫外线). As a result, the lotion reduced the number of tumors (

49、肿瘤) each mouse developed.Unlike sunscreen (遮光剂), the new lotion is applied after exposure to the ultraviolet rays. Rays from the sun can cause genetic changes in the skin that can lead to skin cancer. Caffeine obstructs this action and causes the diseased cells to kill themselves.“I know that caffei

50、ne has been found in certain drinks and it causes increased activity of the nervous system, and increased blood pressure on blood vessels (血管). I dont know of any positive effects of caffeine,” health teacher Montego Estes said.Caffeine, found commonly in tea, coffee and soft drinks, provides people

51、 with an increase in energy. Half of all American adults consume more than 300 milligrams of caffeine per day. Caffeine is addictive because it uses the same mechanisms as amphetamines, and cocaine and heroine to ex cite the brain.“This new cream doesnt sound to me as though it would work,” junior D

52、avid Bobbit said, “Caffeine seems to have more negative effects than positive ones.”Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers in the US. About one million cases will be diagnosed in the country this year. There will be more than 88,000 new cases of melanoma, the diseases deadliest form of skin c

53、ancer.64. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Many Americans like Sarah Green enjoy drinking caffeine.B. Hairless mice are not easily harmed by ultraviolet radiation.C. Research shows caffeine may reduce the risk of skin cancer.D. Americans suffer most from skin cancer among all cancers.65. The

54、 underlined “obstructs” in Paragraph 3 probably means _.A. causesB. followsC. blocks D. predicts66. It can be inferred from this passage that _.A. Sarah Green knows caffeine can protect her from skin cancerB. Exposure to ultraviolet rays is always blamed for skin cancerC. Caffeine will be used in me

55、dicine to treat skin cancer patients soonD. In a way, the study on caffeine is good news for many AmericansDMarch 23, 2006 - Rescue workers found a family in their RV on Tuesday after 17 snowed-in days in the mountains near the Oregon coast.Peter Stivers, Marlo Hill-Stivers, their two children Sabas

But with no leads and no idea where the family was heading, those conducting the un

58、successful search eventually called it off.In the evenings, Sabastyan and Gabrayell entertained the adults by reading jokes from Readers Digest aloud. The family members survived mostly on dehydrated food.On Monday, Hill-Stivers and her husband decided to go for help. They packed a tent, wool blanke

60、en out of the snowbound area on snow machines.
