Sonya and her family have been homeless since she was 3 years old. Over the years, they have moved more than 15times to different shelters around New York City. Moving around was hard on Sonya。At school, Sonya hid her homeless from teachers and other students. She didn’t want to be treated differently from other kids.
In sixth grade, Sonya discovered a way to deal with some of her stress. She began studying dance at her middle school. “IT was a way for me to express myself, instead of just holding everything in,”she explains. Soon, Sonya auditioned（试演）for a summer dance camp run by Alvin Alley, a famous dance company. She was accepted. “I was excited,”says Sonya.
Dancing became an even more important part of Sonya’s life in high school. But things were not going well for Sonya at school. Each time her family moved to a new shelter, Sonya often took care of her younger sisters and brothers. She helped them get ready in the morning and took them to school. They would be on time, but Sonya would be late.
Worrying about her family kept Sonya from thinking about her own future. That changed the summer after 11th grade. Sonya learned she would have to go to summer school to graduate. She became determined to succeed, no matter what. “It was a wake-up call,”she says.“I had to focus on school and on myself.”
Sonya made up the work that she had missed, and finally graduated from high school. No one in her family had gone to college before. But in September 2015, Sonya enrolled in the State University of New York at Potsdam. She plans to become a doctor for kids and to teach dance to children who have disabilities.
1.According to the text, Sonya_____________.
A. learned to dance at the age of 3

B. teachers and other students laughed at her
C. Sonya determined to be a doctor for people with disabilities

Tyler’s mother, Andrea Blackstone, said when Tyler was 4 she wanted to teach him about the importance of veterans. 1. As Tyler was watching these YouTube videos, he asked his mother, "If they're heroes why should they be on the street?”
Blackstone said 4-year-old Tyler then begged her to take him to buy wood and nails and build the veterans houses. 2.
So the mother got Tyler in touch with Maryland's Governor, and Tyler was given a grant of $100. With the help of the grant, Tyler decided that once a year on Veteran's Day, he would gather items like clothes to give homeless veterans care packages. This went on so well, however, that they decided just "Veteran's Day wasn't enough. 3.

Bobbi Kristina Brown's family has been gathered around her since she was hospitalized on Saturday after being found unconscious in the bathtub of her suburban Atlanta townhome.
Whitney Houston's only child is now at Emory University Hospital and is still fighting for her life, as a family statement said on Monday.
Nothing has changed, despite reports that are popping up and painting a more serious picture.
Fox News reported Wednesday that the situation is horrific. "It's now a matter of when the family wants to let go and accept that she's pretty much not going to make it," a source told FOX411. "They've left it up to the family as to how long they want to keep her alive."
People Magazine is also reporting that a doctor told Brown's family on Wednesday that nothing more could be done. "Everyone is coming to the hospital to say goodbye," said a family member.
And the Daily Mail says Brown has been taken off life support.
But Bobby Brown issued a statement late Thursday denying these reports.
"If we issued a statement every time the media published a false report regarding this matter, that's all we would be doing 24 hours a day. This is false, just as is the vast majority of the other reporting that is currently taking place," he said, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
A source close to the family tells USA TODAY that it's wrong to say the family is gathering to say goodbye, because the family has been there since the beginning, so nothing is any different today for them.
Also, Brown is "not brain dead," as has been reported.
And, as for other stories saying that the Houston family is feuding with Bobbi Kristina's dad, Bobby Brown? Those aren't true either. They "are NOT fighting," says our source.
1.According to Fox News, Bobbi Kristina is _________.
A. within an inch of life
B. on the way to success
C. left aside by her family
D. in a good state
2.Bobby Brown holds the opinion that _________.
A. they are busy issuing statements all day
B. the family is saying goodbye to Kristina
C. he is getting along well with the Houston family
D. most journalists are getting the wrong end of the stick.
3.Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. An Accident In The Bathtub
B. Kristina, We’re Still Praying And Waiting On A Miracle
C. False Reports From Different News Media
D. Bobbi Kristina’s Final Days
