The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.
She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. Delores Clemens says, “that"s not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he"s going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Cuddle your baby. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little cuddling and a little love. And it works!”
Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. Around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from Covenant House"s Mommy and Me class every year.
In class, with her baby son is Natasha. She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.
The World Health Organization says the United States has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen. That is higher than other developed countries, as well as some developing ones. By comparison, northern neighbor Canada has fourteen births and southern neighbor Mexico has eighty-two.

Marine scientists studying the effects of the BP disaster(英国石油公司漏油事件)are seeing some strange phenomena.Fish and other wildlife seem to be fleeing the oil out in the Gulf and gathering in cleaner waters along the coast in a trend that some researchers see as a potentially troubling sign.The animals.presence close to shore means their usual habitat is badly polluted,and the crowding could result in mass die-offs as fish run out of oxygen.Also,the animals could easily be captured by their enemies.
The nearly two-month-old spill(漏油)has created an environmental disaster in US history as tens of millions of gallons have flown into the Gulf of Mexico ecosystem.Scienfists are seeing some unusual things as they try to understand the effects on thousands of species of marine life.For nearly four hours Monday,a three-person crew with Greenpeace cruised(巡航)past delicate islands and mangrove-dotted inlets in Barataria Bay off southern Louisiana.They saw dolphins by the dozen frolicking(嬉戏)in the oily sheen(光泽)and oil-tinged pelicans feeding their young.But they spotted no dead animals.
“I think part of the reason why we’re not seeing more yet is that the impacts of this crisis are really just beginning,”Greenpeace marine biologist John Hocevar said.
The counting of dead wildlife in the Gulf is more than an academic exercise;the deaths will help determine how much BP pays in damages.
小题1:What do the marine life react to the BP disaster?
A.Dolphins and sharks show up in deep water. |
B.Tens of thousands of marine animals are found dead. |
C.Sea creatures flee from oil spill,gathering near seashore. |
D.Birds crawl(爬)deep into caves. |
A.the lack of environmental sense of BP |
B.the nearly two-mouth-old oil spill |
C.the crowding marine life |
D.the damage of Mexico Gulf ecosystem |
A.Disappointed | B.Depressed | C.Neutral | D.Worried |
A.marine scientists have seen some strange phenomena. |
B.the disaster has little influence on dolphins. |
C.a three-person crew reached no conclusion. |
D.BP will pay much money according to the number of dead wildlife there. |
Marcus Yallow, 17, from San Francisco is much more comfortable in front of a computer than obeying the rules of society. Smart, fast and wise to the ways of the networked world, he has no trouble outwitting (骗过) his high school"s monitoring system. This way he and his friends get to head off to play a popular online game in real life.
While they are playing, a bomb explodes on the Bay Bridge. Marcus stops a military vehicle to get help for his injured friend, but this simple act throws him into a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secret prison. There he is treated as a possible terrorist. He is eventually let go after four days, but his injured friend disappears.
When he returns, Marcus discovers that there are many "security measures" in place and that now all citizens are treated like potential terrorists. While some consider this government action necessary for public safety, Marcus sees this as a complete destruction of the rights he is supposed to have as a citizen.
He knows that no one will believe his story, which leaves him with only one thing to do: to take down the DHS himself. He helps organize a large network called Xnet to spread the truth, anonymously (匿名地).
The book presents a young man who is irresponsible, but learns about himself, and grows, in the course of the story. As part of this learning and growing he becomes aware of very serious issues about his society.

Scientist Frank Guenther and his colleagues reveal a brainmachine interface that uses electrodes implanted directly into the brain for research into real time speech.
"It should soon be possible for extremely paralysed individuals who are incapable of speaking to produce speech through a laptop computer, " said Guenther.
The scientists worked with a 26-year- old male volunteer who experience near-total paralysis due to a stroke he suffered when he was 16. They implanted an electrode that had two wires into a part of the brain that help plan and execute movements related to speech. The electrode recorded brain signals when the volunteer attempted to talk and the wires spread them across the scalp(头皮)to help drive a speech synthesizer (合成器). The delay between brain activity and sound output was just 50 milliseconds on average, roughly the same with regular speech.
"He was quite excited, particularly on the first few days we used the system, as he got used to its properties, " Guenther recalled." I am sure the work proceeds slowly from his perspective, as it does from ours. Nonetheless, he was very excited about getting real-time audio feedback of his intended speech and happy to work very hard with us throughout the experiments."
"The current system uses data from just two wires. Within a year it will be possible to implant a system with 16 times as many." Guenther said." This will allow us to tap into neurons(神经元),which in the end means better control over a synthesizer and thus better speech."
小题1:In the study of Guenther, electrodes are _______.
A.fixed on the heads | B.put into the heads |
C.tied to the heads | D.separated from the heads |
A.movements | B.wires | C.brain signals | D.Scientists |
A. Wireless Device Are Used to Read Words in the Brain.

The reason for the shortage lies in the structure of interferon. A special protein, the interferon produced from one animal species cannot be used in treating another animal species. In other words, to treat human beings, only interferon produced by human beings may be used. The drug is produced by infecting white blood cells with a virus. Fortunately, it is so effective that the amount given to each patient each time is very small.
Unlike antibiotics (抗生素), interferon does not attack germs directly. Instead, it protects healthy cells from being infected, and prevents the reproduction of viruses within cells.
As you might conclude, one of the most special uses of interferon has been in the treatment of cancer. Dr. Hans Strander, a research physician at Sweden’s famous Karolinska Institute, has treated more than one hundred cancer patients with the new drug. Among a group of selected patients who had received operations for advanced cancer, half were given traditional treatments and the other half were given interferon. Among those treated with interferon 70 percent of them remained alive over three years, as compared with only 10 to 30 percent among those who had received the traditional treatments.
In the United States, a large-scale project supported by the American Cancer Society is now under way. If the experiment were successful, interferon could become one of the greatest medical discoveries of our time.
小题1:What is the difference between antibiotics and interferon?
A.Interferon has serious side effects, while antibiotics do not. |
B.Antibiotics kill germs by attacking them directly, while interferon does not. |
C.Antibiotics are very effective, while the effect of interferon is limited. |
D.They are different in structure, although they are both proteins. |
A.About 30. |
B.About 50. |
C.About 120. |
D.About 70. |
A.it is difficult to produce interferon in large quantities because of its special structure. |
B.interferon is produced widely in lots of countries. |
C.few of the patients who had received traditional treatments remained alive. |
D.most of the patients who received interferon also needed traditional treatments. |
