With her pretty face and soulful voice, Zhang Bichen was thought a possible champion when she first set foot on the stage of the TV showThe Voice of China.

On Oct 7, 2014, the 25-year-old girl won the fierce competition and received the title of the “Voice of the Year”. Zhang’s dream of being a singer star came true as last. What impressed people was not only Zhang’s singing skills, but her willingness to make an effort. “I gained the opportunity to sing on The Voice of China,” she said.

In fact, being a singer has always been her dream. She wanted to apply to a college for singing, but her parents insisted that she should have an easy job after graduation because she did very well at school. So Zhang gave in to her parents and learned French at university. However, in the first year of her college, she was discovered by a South Korean company when she entered a singing competition. To realize her dream, Zhang signed a contract（合同）with the company, started her career in South Korea, and became a member of a band.

“My company had rules that did not allow us to use cell phones. During the first few months after I arrived in South Korea, a totally unfamiliar country, I felt terribly homesick. But I could only phone my parents in the restroom when nobody noticed.” Zhang said. “When I did not have much income, I had to eat noodles every day for months.”

It was her positive attitude and outgoing character that helped her through. “When I feel down, I tell myself it is not winning or losing that matters. The most important things are standing on the stage and singing for people.” she said.

Ladji Doucoure of France beat Olympic champion Liu Xiang of China in the final meters to claim the title of the men’s 110 meters hurdles at the 10^th world championships in Helsinki on Friday.

Doucoure, who led the world this season with 12.97 seconds, over took the Chinese to win the race in 13.07 seconds. Liu was second in 13.08. Four-time world champion Allen Johnson of the United States took the third in 13.10.

The 22-year-old Doucoure said after the race, “ I can not tell you just how long I have been dreaming of this. This victory is the result of a lot of hard work, and also a lot of support from people who have believed in me. I had a bad start, touched a few hurdles, but after the 4^th hurdle I picked up my race and went straight to the finish line.”

Liu, who won the Olympic gold with a world record-tying time of 12.91 seconds, said, “I’m very satisfied with the second place. The result could have been worse. I felt quite well and did my best. I’ m not tired, I had some clearance problems at the start, so I should practice that some mor. Finally, I didn’t lose by much, only by a little bit, but I did think I could win it.”

Liu’s coach, Sun Haiping said on Friday he was content with Liu’s performance.

“ Liu Xiang was quite good during his reaction period, but he was a little bit slow in the middle and he finally caught up during the last two hurdles,” Sun told Xinhua.

Although satisfied with the silver medal and the clocking of 13.08 seconds, Sun said Liu might have added the world title to the Olympic championship if Liu had run the track neighboring his major rivals(对手) of Doucoure Ladji or Allen Johnson.

“ If he had run next to Ladji Doucoure or Allen Johnson, Liu could have kept pace with them and then sprinted(疾跑) at the last stage. In this case, he could grab the gold,” said Sun, who had become a household name for coaching China’s first men’s Olympic champion in the track.

A research suggests that speaking more than one language may delay different kinds of dementia(痴呆) that is the loss of mental ability. In fact, researchers say, speaking two languages appears to be more important than the level of education in defending against dementia.

A study in India examined the effect of knowing more than one language in delaying the first signs of several dementia. Researchers studied nearly 650 people whose average age was 66. 240 of those studied suffered from Alzheimer's, the most common form of mental decline(下降). 391 of the subjects spoke two or more languages. Researchers found the dementia began about four-and-a-half years later in those who spoke two languages compared to those who spoke only one language. The level of education had no effect on the age at the first sign of dementia.

Thomas Bak, from the Centre of Cognitive Aging at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, who helped to organize the study, suggests that individuals who speak more than one language train their brains by moving back and forth between different words and expressions. He also believes this effort improves what scientists called executive(执行的) functioning, which often weakens in people with dementia. He states that researchers found there was no extra gain in speaking more than two languages.

Mr Bak says it does not appear important whether you learn another language at a young age or later in life. It's not something that “you missed the boat when you do not do it as a baby.” It is something that is still quite useful and powerful when you do it as an adult.

1.The finding of the study is that .

A.learning more than one language can cure dementia

B.the level of education matters in defending against dementia

C.speaking two languages may delay kinds of dementia

D.people who suffer from dementia will lose mental ability

2.The underlined word “subjects”　 in Paragraph 2 refers to “______”.

A.notices that were put on about the study

B.people who were studied in the study

C.questions that were asked in the study

D.methods that were used in the study

3.According to Mr Bak, ______.

A.when you learn one more language makes no difference

B.people's executive functioning often strengthens with age

C.the more languages one speaks, the less chance of getting dementia

D.it is much easier to learn one more language at a young age

4.This passage may probably be seen in ______.

A.a research plan B.a business magazine

C.a book review D.a health magazine

Tess still stood hesitating like a swimmer about to make his dive, hardly knowing whether to return or move forward, when a figure came out from the dark door of the tent.It was a tall young man, smoking.

He had an almost black face, though red and smooth. His moustache was black with curled points, though he could not be more than twenty-three or-four. There was an unusual force in his face, and in his daring rolling eyes.

“Well, my beauty, what can I do for you?” said he, coming forward. And seeing that she was quite at a loss: “Never mind me, I am Mr. D’ Urberville. Have you come to see me or my mother?”

This differed greatly from what Tess had expected. She had dreamed of an aged and dignified face. She tried to keep calm and answered—“I came to see your mother, sir.”

“I am afraid you cannot see her—she is ill in bed,” replied the representative of the house; for this was Mr. Alec, the only son of the noble family. “What is the business you wish to see her about?”

“It isn’t business—it is—I can hardly say what!”

“Pleasure?”

“Oh no. Why, sir, if I tell you, it will seem…”

Tess’s sense of a certain ridicule was now so strong that, despite her general discomfort at being here, her rosy lips curved (弯曲) towards a smile, much to the attraction of the young man.

“It is so foolish,” she stammered(结结巴巴地说); “I fear I can’t tell you!”

“Never mind; I like foolish things. Try again, my dear, “ said he kindly.

“Mother asked me to come.” Tess continued; “and, indeed, I was in the mind to do so myself. But I did not think it would be like this. I came, sir, to tell you that we are of the same family as you.”

“Ho! Poor relations?”

“Yes.”

“Stokes？”

“No; d’Urbervilles.”

“Ay, ay; I mean d’Urbervilles.”

“Our names are worn away to Durbeyfield; but we have several proofs that we are d’Urbervilles. The local scholars hold the view that we are, and…and we have an old seal and a silver spoon marked with the same castle as yours. So mother said we ought to make ourselves known to you, as we’ve lost our horse by a bad accident; we can hardly make a living.”

“Very kind of your mother, I’m sure.” Alec looked at Tess as he spoke, in a way that made her uneasy.” And so, my pretty girl, you’ve come on a friendly visit to us, as relations?”

“I Suppose I have,” looking less confident and uncomfortable again.

“Well— there’s no harm in it. Where do you live? What are you?”

——Tess of the d’Urbervilles By Thomas Hardy

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I had one of those life-changing experiences. One man stopped right next to me to greet his family.

First the man walked up to his oldest son. He cupped his face in his hands and said, “You’re already quite a young man. I love you very much, Zach!”

Then he went to his youngest son. They gave each other a long, loving hug. Then I heard the father say, “It’s so good to see you, son. I missed you so much!” With his eyes turning away and his face becoming redder, his son replied softly, “Me, too, Dad!”

While this was happening, a baby girl was moving excitedly in her mother’s arms. The man said, “Hi, baby girl!” And then he gently took the child from her mother. He quickly kissed her face all over.

After several moments, he handed his daughter to his oldest son and said, “I’ve saved the best for the last!” He walked forward to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing.

It seemed that they just got married, but I knew by the age of their kids that they had been married for long. I pondered it for a moment and couldn’t help asking. “Wow! How long have you two been married?”

“Been together fourteen years in total, and been married twelve of those.” he replied. “Well then, how long have you been separated?” I asked. The man smiled, “Two whole days!”

Two days? I was shocked. Judging from the greeting. I had thought they’d been separated for at least several months. I said almost immediately, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after twelve years!”

The man suddenly stopped smiling. He said something that left me a different person. He told me, “Don’t hope, friend…decide!” Then he gave me his wonderful smile again. They left together happily.
