They had me tested to see if my blood sugar was high because they thought that might be causing my symptoms.My blood sugar was five times higher than normal. That can be deadly. My parents rushed me to the hospital. That's when my whole life changed.The doctors said I had Type 1 Diabetes (糖尿病).That means my body can't make insulin (胰岛素).There's no cure.My parents had to give me insulin shots every day and I had to get over my fear of needles quickly. Sometimes I had 10 band-aids on my fingers at once.Now that I'm older, I check my own blood sugar and give myself shots. About four years ago, my mom started traveling to rural Guatemala. She goes twice a year to help people in need.I have been a Girl Scout since kindergarten. For a Girl Scout project, I put together a team to go to Guatemala to test people there for diabetes. We went for four days last July. We tested 378 children and 100 adults. We found three adults with a different kind of diabetes, called type 2. We also found one little girl with dangerously low blood sugar. She cried when we told her. She had been feeling dizzy and didn't know why. It was like replaying what happened to me when I was little. I talked through a translator, but everyone understood hugs. I gave more hugs than I've ever given.Having type 1 diabetes is hard. But I have accepted it readily. It has helped me meet amazing people. It has made me responsible and independent. It has also shown me the power of taking action. I'm going back to Guatemala this summer to test more kids. I want to help as many kids as I can. But my greatest wish is for a cure. Type 1 diabetes changes your life. If no other child ever has to have it, that would be amazing.24.Why did the author's parents have her blood sugar tested?A. They found that she was pale.B. They noticed that she was thirsty.C.

We ran over and pulled him out of the water, only to see his blue face and grey, still body. He was lifeless.One person immediately contacted the front desk while another called 911.

Whatever you’ve got in mind, we’ve rounded up a selection of the world’s most beautiful camping spots to get you started.◆Yosemite National Park, CaliforniaNinety-five percent of Yosemite National Park is set apart for wilderness, which means no cars, no buildings, and no electricity.

Make sure you store your food properly though—black bears are common!◆Boya Lake Provincial Park, CanadaBoya Lake Provincial Park, known for the color and clarity of its lake, is a great place to enjoy any type of water recreation.

She stepped on the brakes, stopping the car just in time. But later, she started texting. Distracted, Amanda turned left and right, then crashed into another car.Luckily, she wasn’t in a real car: She was in a driving simulator (模拟器) at Roosevelt High School, Ohio, US.The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and State Highway Patrol brought the simulator to the school. They said they wanted to help students learn about the dangers of driving drunk, while texting, or while talking on the phone.According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, distracted (分心的) driving claimed 3,450 lives in 2016 alone. Experts believe that the actual figure is probably higher.The simulator is basically a computer game. Like many computer games, it was a hit with the students. They lined up and crowded around to watch each other take turns. The simulator has a steering wheel (方向盘), brake and gas pedals. It is made up of three large computer screens on a table.Students choose a distraction, such as driving while drunk or texting. They always crash, of course. Then, they are pulled over by police to be taught the bad results of their driving: how much damage they’ve caused, what their fine is, if anyone died in the accident, and if they’re going to go to prison.ODOT spokesman Justin Chesnic said hundreds of kids have gone behind the wheel so far. He said even more have benefited from watching their classmates. “Driving is such a major responsibility, so take it seriously,” he said. “Put away your cellphone. Don’t eat or play with the radio. A lot of the accidents out there are because of distracted driving. It can not only change your life, but it can change someone else’s life forever. The results are serious.”28. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?.A. To introduce the topic of the passage.B. To tell readers an interesting story.C. To call on readers to protect wildlife.D. To advertise a driving simulator.29. The driving simulator project at Roosevelt High School is meant to ______.A. improve students’ ability to stay focusedB. provide students with an entertaining activityC. inform students of the bad effects of drinking drunkD. make students aware of the dangers of distracted driving30. What’s the students’ attitude towards the driving simulator?A. Disappointed.B. Enthusiastic.C. Uninterested.D. Optimistic.31. Which of the following can be inferred from what Justin Chesnic said?A.

Just two of the 56 wild parrots that once lived there survived Maria, the Category-4 storm that struck Puerto Rico in September 2017. Scientists report other forests have seen great drops in parrot populations as well.In the 1800s, there were more than a million of the bright green parrots living in the wild in Puerto Rico. By the 1970s, the number was down to just 13 birds after years of forest clearing.A special program was started in 1972 to help increase the parrot population, which led to the creation of three breeding(繁殖) centers. Just weeks before Hurricane Maria hit, scientists counted 56 wild parrots at El Yunque. That was the highest number in the program's history. Scientists say that even though several parrots have been born in captivity(笼养) and in the wild since Maria, the species is still in danger.The Puerto Rican Amazon is the island’s only remaining native parrot. More than 460 of the birds are kept inside the breeding centers at El Yunque and the Rio Abajo forest. Scientists have not released(释放) any of the birds since Hurricane Maria. A third breeding center, in a forest in the western area of Maricao, has not been in operation since the storm.Scientists are considering whether to catch some of the remaining wild parrots and put them in the same cage as the birds that are set to be released. This way, the captive birds can learn from the wild birds how to survive in the forests. Another consideration is to release some captive parrots in Maricao, which was not as heavily damaged by Maria.8. Why has the parrot population greatly decreased in the past 200 years?A. Because of Hurricane Maria.B. Because of too much hunting.C. Because of the loss of forests.D. Because of lack of breeding centers.9. Which of the following is true about Hurricane Maria?A. It killed 56 wild parrots at El Yunque.B. It greatly affected parrots in captivity.C. It reduced the number of wild parrots.D. It led to the creation of three breeding centers.10. What can we infer about Amazon parrots in captivity?A. They have the highest number in the history.B. They have been released since Hurricane Maria.C. They are used to living in the wild.D. They are larger in number than those in the wild.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Scientists Work to Save Puerto Rican Parrots.B. Amazon Parrots are in Danger of Disappearing.C. A Special Program Helps Increase the Parrot Population.D. Hurricane Maria Reduced the Number of Amazon Parrots.P11 A【河南省中原名校2019届高三第一次质量考评】Bus Tours in Washington DCThe Lights Night Tour in Washington DCDuration:3 hours $56.33Highest-rated Night Tour in DC!

Whoever wants to join has to bring in at least 5 kilograms(11 pounds) of solid waste(paper or plastic) and establish a savings goal. Once accepted, all bank “partners” are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram(2.2 pounds) of recyclables on a monthly basis and obey other requirements, such as attending financial education and environmental management workshops. The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling companies, who, thanks to some clever negotiation by Jose, pay a higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by Bartselana Student Bank members. The funds received are placed in the individual’s account where they collect until his／her savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw his／her money, or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target.“At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project, ” Jose recalls. “They did not understand that we are not the future of the country but its present. Luckily, I had the support of the school principal and an assistant in my classroom.”The youngster’s persistence paid off. Today, the eco-bank, which now has the support of several local institutions, has ten educational centers and begins accepting applications from kids all across Peru. On November 20, 2018, the young boy was awarded the famous Children’s Climate Prize (CCP). “Jose’s eco-bank is a brilliant way of linking economy and climate impact, both in thought and practice. The potential impact is amazing,” a judge said.Hopefully, Jose’s success will inspire more kids and adults to come up with new ideas that create value while helping the environment. As the boy says,” Together we can change the world…we just need an opportunity…”28. For what main purpose was the eco-bank created?A. To educate children how to spend their allowances.B. To help children become independent from their parents.。
