12、volunteers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people whove suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them fo
13、r the day.Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was really shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turkey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and ev
14、erything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arrived at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients（接受者） On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to qu

19、s would follow himBResearch shows that childhood friendships are important indicators of future success and social adjustment. Childrens relationships with peers (同龄人 ) strongly influence their success in school，and children with fewer friends are more at risk of dropping out of school， becoming dep
20、ressed and other problems.Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Childs PlayWhen 6-year-old Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning，her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie. “Though they were only separated by a weekend，the girls ran right into each others arms
21、and hugged,” recalls Rachels mother Kathryn Willis of Gilbert. “It was like a scene from a movie.” Most parents instinctively (本能地) know that having friends is good for their child. Experts agree that friendship is not simply childs play，but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life.
22、A Skill for Life“Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for adulthood,” says Dr.Robbie Adler-Tapia，psychologist with the Center for Childrens Health & Life Development at the East Valley Family Resource Center.Researcher William Hartup states， “Peer relations contribute sign
23、ificantly to both social and cognitive (认知的) development.” Hartup concludes that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior，but rather，how well a child gets along with other children.The work of Arizona State University professor of Deve
24、lopmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids while the lack of friends is detrimental.Good Friendships Dont Just HappenExperts agree that it is essential for children to establish high-quality friendships. But，researchers warn，these fri
25、endships dont necessarily just happen. Often，a good friendship begins with involved parents.Psychologist Dr.Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading.Bad Company- 5 -Many parents worry about the quality as well as the quant
26、ity of their childs friendships. “When she was in 1st grade，her supposed best friend began calling her names and threatening to hurt her,” says Mindy Miller. “My daughter wasnt allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class. It really crushed her spirit. I told my daughter she didnt nee
27、d a friend like that.”“Ill bend over backwards(拼命) to help my son get together with a friend I think is good for him,” Adler-Tapia says. “I dont look at it as manipulation (操纵)，just positive parental involvement.”25. The example of Rachel and Abbie is used to indicate that_.A. childhood friendship i

Rachel missed her friend Abbie very much because of their separation of one weekend26. Th

30、nd social adaptation D. positive parental involvement and social skills28. From the last paragraph we can conclude that Dr.Robbie Adler-Tapia agrees that_.A. parents should regard making friends as something that just happensB. its wise for parents to support and encourage healthy peer relationships
31、C. parents only need to help their children to cope with difficult social situationsD. parents are supposed to encourage their children to make as many friends as they canCEcotourism： A Different Way to TravelAre you attracted to unknown places？Do you prefer to vacation away from other tourists？Are
32、you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions，you just might be an ecotourist.Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural worldand leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990
33、s，and ecotourism is now - 6 -growing three times faster than the entire tourism industry . The Kapawi Ecolodge in Ecuadors remote Amazon Basin is contributing to that expansion，and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like.At the Ecolodge，a small group of cabins sits in the middle of the Ach
34、uar peoples reserve and is only accessible by air. From here，visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do，local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket，where they find food，clothing，medicine and tools. As a result， tourists learn to app
35、reciate the local culture as well as the natural environment. The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people，but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2011.The owners are working to mak
36、e ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.You probably wont start your own ecolodge，but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines：Protect the environment；Support local businesses；Respect the local customs and traditions.The world is full of fascinating places to visit.

40、or of ecotourismC. the achuar people have benefited a lot by collecting money from ecotouristsD. the owners of Kapawi encourage tourists to appreciate the Achuar cultureDNowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods ( GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified
41、 organisms (有机体), which have had - 7 -specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a non-specific but stable change. For many people, the high-tech production raises all kinds
42、of environmental, ethical, health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions, the idea seems against nature.In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown
43、 in the U. S. last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the Department of Agriculture. More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year. The genetic genie is out of the bottle.However, like any new product entering the food chain, GM foods m
44、ust be subjected to careful testing. In wealthy countries, the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feed fast-growing and underfed populations, the matter
45、 is simpler and much more urgent: do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks?The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing. Last year the worlds population reached 6 billion. The UN states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400 million women of ch
46、ildbearing age don t have enough iron, which means their babies are exposed to various birth defeats. As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency, a leading cause of blindness.How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutr
47、itional values. Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops. Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought, poor soil and crop viruses.33
48、. The passage mainly talks about_.A. the worlds food problem B. the development in biotechC. the genetically modified foods D. the way to solve food shortages34.

GM foods are available everywhereB. the technology in producing GM foods is advancedC. genetic technology may have uncontrollable powersD. genetic technology has come out of
