At thirteen, I was diagnsed（诊断） with kind f attentin disrder. It made schl difficult fr me. When everyne else in the clas was fcusing n tasks, I culdn't.
In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us t read a stry and then write n it, all within 45minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, "Mrs. Smith, yu see, the dctr said I have attentin prblems I might nt be able t d it."

Wasn't I the "blind" in my class, being made t learn like the "sighted" students? My thughts spilled ut and my pen started t dance. I cmpleted the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was nt different frm thers; I just needed a quieter place. If Luis culd find his way ut f his prblem, why shuld I ever give up?
I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper t Mrs. Smith, s it was quite a surprise when it came back t me the next day—with an "A" n it. At the bttm f the paper were these wrds, "See what yu can d when yu keep trying?"

Imprved air quality t reduce zne（臭氧） pllutin may have avided the lss f 1.5 billin birds during the past 40 years, a study fund. That's nearly 20% f bird life in the United States tday.
Ozne, a gas that appears in nature, is als prduced by human activities, including by pwer plants and cars. The zne in the upper atmsphere prtects the Earth frm the harmful ultravilet rays （紫外线） f the sun. But grund-level zne is harmful and pllutes the air we breathe.
T examine the relatinship between bird ppulatins and air pllutin, the researchers used mdels that cnnected bird bservatins frm the Crnel l Lab f Ornithlgy's eBird prgram with grund-level pllutian data. They tracked mnthly changes in bird ppulatins, air quality, and regulatin status（治理现状） fr 3,214 US cunties ver a perid f 15 years. The findings suggest that zne pllutin: is mst harmful t the small birds—such as sparrws, warblers and finches—that make up 86% f all Nrth American land-bird species. Ozne pllutin directly harms birds by damaging their breathing systems, and indirectly harms their fd surces.
"Nt nly can zne cause direct physical damage t birds, but it als can harm plant health and reduce numbers f the insects that birds eat," said c-authr Amanda Rdewald. "Nt surprisingly, birds that cannt get high→quality habitat r fd resurces are less likely t survive r reprduce successfully. The gd news here is that envirnmental plicies intended t prtect human health and return imprtant benefits t birds t."
This wrk cntributes t ur ever increasing understanding f the cnnectin f envirnmental health and human health.
32. Hw many birds are there in the United States nw?

C. 3 billin.D.7.5 billin.
33. What is the result f the findings?
A. Ozne pllutin harms birds' fd surces indirectly.
B.86% f Nrth American land-bird species are extinct.
C.3,214 cuntics in America have effective regulatins.
D. The researchers have bserved birds fr tuany years.
34. What is Amanda Rdewald's attitude twards birds' future in the US?
A. Wrried.B. Psitive.C, Uncaring.D. Dubtful.
35. What is the suitable title fr the text?
A. Grund-Level Ozne Makes up Mst f the Air We Breathe
B. Envirnmental Plicies Intend t Prtect Human Health
C. Reduced Ozne Pllutin May Have Avided Bird Deaths

Fr many, public speaking can be quite challenging, but it desn't mean we can't imprve. Here, a prfessr ffered three tips t help.
D nt ver prepare
36 When speakers ver prepare their speeches, it can be attractive t include t much infrmatin and material. Smetimes yung speakers will try t analyze a tpic frm an adult's perspective, using cmplex wrds they dn't understand.
Listen t the questins r tpics carefully
Thugh speeches can be prepared in advance, there is still the challenge f answering questins frm judges. 37 Here the prfessr gave an example: A cntestant talked abut her dg's bravery, and the judges asked if she culd ffer an example. Instead f talking abut bravery, she rambled n （漫谈） abut different types f dgs such as guide dgs and plice dgs. It was nt t the pint, and nt an effective answer.
38
Cmpassin（同理心） is imprtant fr public speakers. 39 The prfessr ffered anther example: When a cntestant mentined that hitting a snwman is fun, the judge asked,“ Have yu ever thught abut the snwman's feelings?”Withut cnsideratin, the by replied, "Snwmen d nt have emtins. "
If the cntestant had given a humrus answer, he culd have a much better interactin with the audience. 40
A. Put yurself in thers' shes.
E It helps the audience relate t the speaker.
C. Practing is f great help t a speaker.
D. Listening carefully can help yu be an effective, fcused speaker.
E. Therefre, he was nt a gd speaker.
F. As the prfessr put it, "Cmmunicatin is the final purpse f public speaking."
G Practicing may help speakers nt feel as nervus, but ver-preparing can be a pitfall（隐患）.

Driving n the muntain rads where I live can be bth a great pleasure and an adventure at times. Yet, yu shuld always lk ut fr hles, deer, skunks and squirrels crssing the rad, as well as fallen trees and brken rcks that have rlled dwn the side f the hill.
l came upn ne f thse rcks just the ther day. I saw a car turn arund it and the truck just ahead f me run ver it. I turned t and then quickly pulled ver t a wide place. I knew a rck that size wuld break parts f a lw riding car like mine if the driver didn't see it in time t mve. I walked ver and picked up the huge stne. It must have weighed 50 punds but I tried my best, and finally I gt it int the ditch（沟） and walked smiling back t my car.
The happening reminded me f an ld stry I had read nce. In a faraway land a king had placed a huge rck n the rad leading t his palace. Many nbles walked by and arund it cmplaining that the king didn't keep the rad up better. Finally, a pr farmer arrived pulling a cart f vegetables. He stpped and rlled the rck ff the rad with all his strength. Then he saw under it was a bag f gld cins that the king had left fr the ne wh cleared the path fr thse wh came after.
Nw while there wasn't any bag f treasure under the rck I mved, my heart did feel a little mre glden as I walked back t my car. Maybe the real reward is the lve we feel, the gd we d and the kindness we share. Then an idea came t my mind: why nt make the rad safer t drive n?
