Like most new fathers, Samuel Forrest was excited to meet his son, but he had no idea just how much that first meeting would change his life.
On 21 January, baby Leo was born with Down’s Syndrome(唐氏综合症).
“They took me in to see him and I looked at this guy and I said, he’s beautiful,
3
he’s perfect and I’m absolutely keeping him.” Forrest told ABC News.
But Forrest’s wife did not share the same feelings. She reportedly gave Forrest a deadline, saying if the father wanted to keep the baby, she would divorce him.
Forrest, from Auckland, New Zealand, said he was unaware that hospitals in Armenia “will tell you that you don’t have to keep babies with Down’s Syndrome.” He’s now planning to raise Leo by himself as a single father back in his native country of New Zealand, where he can be near friends and family for support.
The new father has created a GoFundMe page called “Bring Leo Home” to collect money for the costly move.
“This really happened to me unexpectedly,” he told ABC news. “ I don’t have a lot. I have very little in fact.” The goal is to raise enough for a year so I can get a part-time job so Leo doesn’t have to be in daycare and I can help care for him.”
ABC News spoke to Leo’s mother Ruzan Badalyan who said that she did have a child with Down’s Syndrome and that she had left her husband. She declined to comment further.
The father’s GoFundMe page has already raised over $175,000 in just nine days. The page now states that additional funds will be given out to charity.
“We’d also like to share the extra money with the only orphanagein Armenia that regularly takes abandoned Down’s Syndrome babies as well as other organizations that can help these children,” it says.
24. What was Forrest’s reaction when he first saw his son?
A. Delighted. B. Disappointed. C. Embarrassed. D. Shocked.
25. Why was Forrest’s wife unwilling to keep the boy?
A. Because her husband wanted to divorce her.
B. Because she would like to settle in New Zealand.
C. Because the baby suffered from a severe disease.
D. Because her family couldn’t afford the raising cost.
26. What would Forrest do with the extra money he collected?
A. To bring up Leo by himself. B. To help the children with Down’s Syndrome.
C. To take the money back to New Zealand.D To help others who work at home.
27. We can infer from the text that Forrest ________.
A. has attracted much attention from the public
B. will send his son to the orphanage
C. will get remarried in order to raise Leo D. is rich enough to bring up his son
C
What is your relationship like with your mobile phones? Do you use it for calls? Texts, social media, games, apps, internet or all of the above? I use my phone for work, pleasure, and socializing. It’s the first thing I pick up in the morning and the last thing I put down before I go to sleep. I even find it hard to put it face-down on the table while eating in fear someone “needs me”.

In recent years, mobile phones have become a popular part of our lives. In England in the year 2013, that number had jumped to 94 percent.
One reason why this may be the case is that, while in the past, technology was used on the environment it was built for---for example, TV for relaxing or computer in the office---mobile phones have bridged the gap, so we can relax, work or interact wherever and whenever we want.
No wonder so many of us see our mobile phones as an extension of ourselves and wouldn’t dare leave it at home.
While the number of mobile phone users has climbed, so has the number of people becoming addicted to technology. A study by researchers states, “significant mental and physical disorder, panic, confusion and extreme loneliness when forced to unplug from technology for an entire day.”
One day of non-usage of technology produced systems similar to drug withdrawal. So why have so many of us been so that we can’t stand being without technology?
Having thought about my own phone usage, I thought to myself, “What would actually happen if I didn’t use it? If I didn’t connect on social media, would I have the same “mental and physical disorder” as the students in the study?”
I think this would be a great learning experience to see exactly how much technology has affected our lives.
So, I decided I would do three days of no mobile or social media. How would I cope?
28. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Mobile phones are used in many different ways.
B. Mobile phones have become a part of our life.
C. Mobile phones steal users’ too much time.
D. Mobile phones have a bad effect on us.
29. Why does the author mention TV and computers?
A. To remind us not to lose our mobile phones.
B. To tell us TV is mainly used for relaxing.
C. To tell us computers are used as a tool in offices.
D. To show the advantages of mobile phones.
30. What does the underlined word “seduced” mean in Paragraph 6?
A. Addicted. B. Surprised. C. Impressed D. Persuaded.
31. What will be discussed in the following paragraph?
A. The great effects technology has on our daily lives.
B. How to handle the situation without a mobile phone.
C. The three-day experiences without a mobile phone.
D. How to get rid of the addiction to mobile phones.

W: Dad, Christmas is coming. Could you give me some money? I want to buy a card for my friend Mary. It has been two months since she was in my school.
M: Oh dear, how thoughtful you are!
Text 5
M: I wish I had learned English well when I was in high school.
W: You always said you didn’t think English was of great importance.
M: I realize I was wrong and it’s too late.
W: It’s never too late to learn.
Text 6
W: Hi, Jack, have you thought about your ideal job in the future? Do you want to be an excellent math teacher like your father?
M: For Gosh’s sake! I hate being a teacher. I still have a clear memory of the terrible days when my father helped me with all my subjects. But it is strange that I made great progress in my English learning. How about you, Jessica?
W: Well, I dream of being a brilliant dancer like my mother. You know, she is 43 now, and she has been dancing since she was 20 years old.
M: I can’t believe it! She looks quite young and has a great figure.
W: Yes. She has formed a good habit of having enough fruits and vegetables every day. And more importantly, she keeps an optimistic attitude towards life which benefits her physical condition.
M: Oh, I see. How I wish I had taken enough exercise.
W: Come on. Don’t lose heart! If you think you can, you can. Let’s get rid of our bad habits and learn from our great parents.

W: Hey, Mike. Where have you been? I didn’t see you around these days.
M: I was hiding in my office. My boss gave me loads of work to do, and I tried to finish it before my birthday. Anyway, I am done now. Thank goodness! How is everything going with you?
W: I’m quite well. You know, tomorrow is Christmas Day. Do you have any plans?
M: Well, to tell you the truth, I am more than excited about my birthday, which will come in two days. And I am going to visit my parents-in-law with my wife.
W: Wow, sounds great.
M: Definitely! This is my first time to spend my birthday with them.
W: Do they live far away from here?
13
M: A little bit. We planned to take the train, but considering the travel peak, my wife strongly suggested that we go to the airport right after we finish our work this afternoon. How about you? What’s your plan for the holiday?
W: Well, our situations are just the opposite. My parents-in-law will come to my house and they wish to stay at home and have a quiet Christmas Day. So I have to call my friends to cancel our party which will be held in my house.
M: You’ll experience a quite different and lovely holiday. Enjoy your Christmas!
W: Thanks, the same to you!
Text 8
W: Come to my office, Billy. Look at your messy hair. This is the third time you have been late for class within this week. And every time you went in, you disturbed the teacher’s class.
M: Sorry, Miss. I didn’t mean to do that, but it was my alarm clock that didn’t wake me up. W: That is not a proper excuse. You could set it ahead of the exact time so that you could have got up earlier and not have been late.
M: I did that, but it seemed useless when I found the batteries had run out after I woke up this morning. I rushed to school and luckily, my neighbour Mr. Green gave me a hand and took me to school with his car.
W: So you could have made it. But you were still late for class.
M: The thing is, when I got off, I found I had left my bag in his car. And it was too late to get it back when I realized that. I went straight to the nearest shop and gave him a call. I waited for five minutes before Mr. Green drove back.
W: Finally, he gave you your bag and you came to the classroom and you were already 15minutes late for class at that time. Is that all?
M: Miss, you seem to know the entire story. May I go back to class now? Otherwise I will be late for the following class.

W: Help me decide on which type of hotel room to book.
M: I want the one with a bed.
W: Very funny. We have a choice of different views, and each one is a different price. For instance, a room with a city view is 175 a night.
M: 175 a night?! That’s highway robbery!
W: If you think that’s too steep, there are a few other options. We can get a courtyard room with no view for 120 a night or a room with an obstructed or peek-a-boo ocean views for 130 a night.
M: I don’t really care which type of room we get as long as we don’t end up with a room on the ground floor. I don’t like having people walking back and forth outside my window all
