I was difficult to coordinate(协调) our ---his halting(蹒跚),mine impatient-- -and because of that, we didn’t much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “you set the pace. I will try to you.”
Our walk was to or from the subway, which was he got to work. He went to work sick, and despite nasty weather. He almost never missed a day, and would it to the office even if others could not.
He never talked about himself as an of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more or able. What he looked for others was a “good heart”.
Now that I am older, I believe that is a proper by which to judge people, even though I don’t know precisely what a “ good heart” is. But I know the times I don’t have one myself.
He has been many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he my reluctance(unwillingness) to be seen with him during our .If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how I it.

If you have to miss one meal a day, which meal will cause you fewest health problems if you don’t eat it? If they have to make a decision of this type, most people (especially very busy people) will choose to skip (not to eat) breakfast.
However, many experts in the field of health consider breakfast (the meal which “breaks” your “fast---- a period of time without eating anything ” which started the night before) to be the most important meal of the day. If we eat a good breakfast, they say, we will have the energy and nutrients we need to begin our working day with vigor and hopefully with good humour. But many people skip breakfast or replace it with snacks or a cup of coffee for a well-balanced meal. What happens if we ignore the importance of breakfast?
One recent study conducted in the United States tested a large number of people. Participants included both males and females who ranged in age from 12—83. During the experiment, these people were given a variety of breakfasts, and sometimes, they had to skip breakfast completely. Special tests, including blood tests and endurance tests, were set up to analyze how well the participants’ bodies functioned when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast.
The result showed that if a person eats an adequate (充足的) breakfast, he or she will work more efficiently and more productively than if he or she skips breakfasts or eats a very poor breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person’s work involves mental activity. The study showed that if schoolchildren eat fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, they will learn more quickly and will be able to concentrate on their lessons for a longer period of time than if their breakfast diet is inadequate .
The study also showed that, contrary to what many people believe, if you skip breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry if they skip breakfast that they eat too much for lunch and end up gaining weight instead of losing. So remember, if you are on a diet, skipping breakfast will not help you. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
1.According to the passage, we can safely say _____.
| A．if you skip breakfast, you will not lose weight at all |
| B．if you skip breakfast, you won’t eat much for lunch either. |
| C．skipping breakfast won’t do a bit of harm |
| D．skipping breakfast will help one lose weight |
2.In the word “breakfast”, “fast” probably means _____.
| A．“moving quickly” | B．“going without food ” |
| C．“unlikely to go fast” | D．“fast food ” |
3.Special tests were organized to analyze how participants’ bodies functioned when ______.
| A．they had skipped breakfasts | B．they had had breakfasts |
| C．they had eaten special breakfasts | D．they had had all three meals |

“If you talk to the plants, they will grow faster and the effect is even better if you’re a woman.” Researchers at Royal Horticultural Society carried out an experiment to find that the voice of a woman gardener makes plants grow faster.
The experiment lasted a month and by the end of the study scientists managed to discover that tomato plants grew up two inches taller when women gardeners talked to them instead of male.
Sarah Darwin was the one making the plants registered the best growth. Her voice was the most “inspiring” for plants than those of nine other gardeners when reading a passage from The Origin of Species. The great-great-granddaughter of the famous botanist(植物学家) Charles Darwin found that her plant grew about two inches taller than the plant of the best male gardener.
Colin Crosbie, Garden Superintendent at RHS, said that the finding cannot yet be explained. He assumes that women have a greater range of pitch（音高） and tone（音调） which might have a certain effect on the sound waves that reach the plant. “Sound waves are an environmental effect just like rain or light ,”said Mr Grosbie.
The study began in April at RHS Garden Wisley in Survey. Scientists started with open auditions(听力) for the people who were asked to record passages from John Wyndham's The Day of the Triffids, Shakespeare’s A Midsummer's Night Dream and Darwin's The Origin of Species.
Afterwards researchers selected a number of different voices and played them to 10 tomato plants during a period of a month. Each plant had headphones（耳机） connected to it. Through the headphones the sound waves could hit the plants. It was discovered that plants that “listened” to female voices on average grew taller by an inch in comparison to plants that heard male voices.
Miss Darwin said, “I think it is an honor to have a voice that can make tomatoes grow, and especially fitting because for a number of years I have been studying wild tomatoes from the Galapagos Island at the Natural History Museum in London.”
1.What does the passage talk about?
A. Plants enjoy men’s voices than women’s.
B. A botanical experiment in a museum.
C. Voice’s influence on plant growing.
D. Strange phenomenon（现象） at Royal Horticultural Society.
2.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Plants need sound as well as rain and light.
B. Sound is basic for the plant to grow.
C. Sound has a good effect as rain or light does.
D. Plants can’t live without sound, rain or light.
3.Sarah Darwin is most likely a (an)_____.
A. botanist B. gardener C. astronomer D. environmentalist
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A. The experiment ended in May.
B. Scientist can explain the findings clearly.
C. Plants enjoy listening to the passages from masterpieces.
D. The findings are of great importance to human beings.
