    When we talk about stars, especially women stars, it seems that they are always young, pretty and own charming body shapes. But recently a Britain’s Got Talent（英国达人）star Susan Boyle has changed our views absolutely.
    Simon Cowell , one of the judges of the talent show spoke of his shock over Ms Boyle’s voice. “This lady camp up, and I’m thinking, ‘This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea’. That changed when she began to sing I Dreamed to Dream from Les Miserable. She knew we were going to have that reaction and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face widway through –it was one of my favorite moments,” Cowell said.
    The performance was posted on line and before long, the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world.
    Speaking from her home in Scotland, Ms Boyle said that she hasn’t thought of changing her appearance. She said that her friend helped her with make-up. “I mean, that’s hardly a makeover,” she added. Ms Boyle also spoke of the reason she first began to explore her vocal talents, “I was kind of slow at school, so getting like singing was a good way of hiding behind that and thus it built my confidence.”

    A rabbit is running into his hole. You may ask, “What happened?”
    Well, when a rabbit sees something dangerous, it runs away. Its tail moves up and down as it runs. When other rabbits see this tail moving up and down, they ran, too. They know there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.
    Many other animals use this kind of language. When a bee finds some food, it goes back to his home. It can’t tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.
    But animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for examples, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs(发出呼噜呼噜的声音) when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning.
    But human beings have something that no animals have---- a large number of words about things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other information to tell or inform other people what is in our mind or how we feel. By writing words down we can remind ourselves of the things that have happened, or send messages to people far away. No animals can do this. No animals has the wonderful power of language.
    No one knows how man learned to make words. Somehow he learned to make them. As centuries went by, he made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language.
    People in different countries made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. A very large English dictionary, for examples, contains four or five hundred thousand words. But we don’t know all these. The words we know are called vocabulary. We should try to make our vocabulary larger. Read as many books as possible. When we met a new word, look it up in the dictionary. A dictionary is the most useful book.
    小题1:What’s the meaning of the underlined word?
    A．标语B．信号C．唱片D．图像
    小题2:A dog can tell something__________.
    A．by giving signalsB．by making different sounds

    A．give the others information
    B．express their actions and feelings with words
    C．tell others how they feel
    D．make different sounds, each with its own meaning.
    小题4:Generally speaking, what we mean by “vocabulary” is_______.
    A．all the words that we knowB．more and more words we use
    C．all the words we needD．the dictionary which contains thousands of words

    When Christie Andrews was born, she weighed less that half of one kilogram. Her heart was the size of a large coin. Her mother said Christie was so small that she could hold her in the palm of one hand.
    Christie couldn’t breathe without a machine to give her oxygen. If she had been born 20 years earlier, she would probably have died at once. She needed two operations, but she survived without serious damage.
    Twenty years ago , 90% of all premature(早产) babies died. Today, doctors manage to save four out of every five, because they have better machines for breathing and better ways to feed the babies.
    But saving Christie’s life cost more than $ 400,000. In some cases, doctors spend 1 million dollars saving a single child. The parents usually don’t have enough money to pay. The government, an insurance company or the hospital picks up the bill. Even after a baby goes home from the hospital, it may require medical care.
    Some people think it makes more sense to spend money saving 10 adults who have cancer or other diseases than saving one small baby. But nobody wants to be the doctor who has to tell parents to their faces, “Sorry, I won’t save your new child.”
    小题1: Parents don’t pay their babies’ hospital bills because        .
    A．they don’t have enough money
    B．they would rather save cancer patients
    C．doctors don’t care if the babies die
    D．it makes more sense to have a bigger baby
    小题2:The true cost of saving a baby may be even more than 1 million because        .
    A．oxygen machine are expensive
    B．the baby may require medical care after it leaves the hospital
    C．doctors always charge more than they should
    D．four out of five premature babies can now be saved
    小题3:From the story we know that saving a cancer patient        .
    A．is easier than saving a babyB．is harder than saving a baby
    C．is cheaper than saving a baby D．is more common than saving a baby
    小题4:The main idea of the article is        .
    A．doctors must never decide whether to save babies or cancer patients
    B．doctors are able to save premature babies, but the cost is very high
    C．having a premature baby was cheaper and safer 20 years ago
    D．Christie survived because the hospital paid her bills
