In a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald (秃的) head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third grader’s cheery dressing didn’t mask her pain and weary eyes.

Then a visitor showed up. “Do you want to write a song?” asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. “Have you ever written a poem?” Anita Kruse continued. “Well, yes,” Simran said.

Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone. “Some bird soaring through the sky,” she said softly. “Imagination in its head…” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣, 唱) birds, and finally the girl’s voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.

That was the beginning of Anita Kruse’s project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help “came in one flash”.

The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin’s disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It.

“My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,” says Anita Kruse. “But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.”

Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the “really sweet and nice and loving” lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.

1.Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ______.

A. most of her hair had fallen out

2.What do we know about Anita Kruse’s project?

A. It helps young patients record songs.

B. It is supported by singers and patients.

C. It aims to replace the medical treatment.

D. It offers patients chances to realize their dreams.

3.What does the case of a 12-year-old boy suggest?

A. Most children are naturally fond of music.

B. He was brave enough to put up performance.

C. The project has positive effect on young patients.

D. Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses.

4. What is probably the best title for the passage?

A. Purple Songs Can Fly

B. Singing Can Improve Health

C. A Shining Moment in Life

D. A Kind Woman—Anita Kruse

Mary Krupa became friends with the grey squirrels during her first week at Penn State, after spotting them running around and idly wondering what they would look like with tiny hats on their heads. Today, everyone at the university knows her as the "Squirrel Girl".

Mary started bringing them food, and gradually they began to trust her. She managed to put a hat on a squirrel and take a picture. Thinking that her colleagues could do with something to lift their spirits, she started posting similar photos on Facebook. The response was greatly positive, and before long Mary and her squirrels became an Internet sensation.

Growing up in a neighborhood outside of State College, Mary was always fond of birds and animals around her home, but she didn't interact with people very much. She was later diagnosed (诊断) with Asperger's syndrome, but the squirrels changed that. "The squirrels help me break the ice, because I'll be sitting here patting a squirrel and other people will come over and well just start like feeding the squirrels together and chatting about them," she said, "I am a lot more outgoing."

And in case you're wondering how Mary is able to get the squirrels to do what she wants for her photos, it has a lot to do with food. For example, whenever she wants them to hold or play with something, she puts peanut butter on the prop (道具), and they'll grab it. But getting to that part took a while. In the beginning, she would throw peanuts up the trees on campus and invite the squirrels to come down and get them, but they hesitated to approach her. She had the patience to earn their trust, though.

This year, Mary is graduating with a degree in English and wildlife sciences. She wants to be a science writer and educate people on how to preserve the environment. As for her furry friends, Mary plans to stay in the area and visit them as often as she can.

1.What is the third paragraph mainly about?

A.The reason why Mary likes animals.

B.The reason why Mary was ill in the past.

C.The reason why people come to chat with her.

D.The big change squirrels bring to Mary.

2.What can we infer from the passage?

A.Mary is known as the "Squirrel Girl" in the community.

B.Mary was more fond of squirrels than any other animals.

C.Mary and squirrels received great attention on the internet.

D.Mary wishes to educate people on how to protect the animals.

3.How did Mary manage to take photos of squirrels wearing hats?

A.By putting them in cages.

B.By playing music to them.

C.By attracting them with colorful food.

D.By building a close relationship with them.

4.Which words can best describe Mary?

A.Patient and caring. B.Confident and strong.

C.Sociable and healthy. D.Traditional and hard-working.
