A 10-month-old dog named Picasso is exiting a very blue period in his life, thanks to an Oregon dog rescue group.
Picasso was born with a facial deformity(畸形） that makes it look as if his nose is going right while his jaw goes left. Except for that, Picasso is healthy, according to Liesl Wilhardt, director of Luvable Dog Rescue. “He can eat sideways, but he’s a very messy eater,” she said. “Same with water.”
Picasso was one of the five baby dogs born last year in Porterville, California. But his owner abandoned Picasso because he was unable to sell such an ugly dog, and it was taken to the Porterville Animal Animal Shelter.
It was close to being euthanized (使安乐死）before Wilhardt found out about it from Shannon Corbit, a volunteer at the shelter. “I asked her if she had any dogs with special needs, because I felt we could take some on,” Wilhardt said. “She said, ‘Yeah, there’s a dog with a facial deformity, ’and I fell in love with his picture. ”
That as two weeks ago. Since then, Picasso's unique look has made him widely known online. Even so, there are plans to have that upper canine(犬齿) removed in the near future. Once Picasso’s tooth is fixed, he and Pablo, another dog, will be put up for adoption.
“They are very attached,” she said. “These two have come to rely on each other for security, comfort and support. Both dogs are perfect for an active family with older kids. Picasso is outgoing, happy, curious and lovely. He’s so unaware of how different he is.”
1.Why was Picasso abandoned by its owner?
A. Because of its poor health.
B. Because of its super appetite.
C. Because of its facial deformity.
D. Because of its fierce character.

Day in and day out, Rose, a neat, well-dressed, dark-haired young woman carries out her work at an office in a business park near Cambridge and spends hours studying pictures of children being abused. She watches the images again and again, looking for the tiniest details that might deliver a young victim from hell. They might be as small as the titles of books on a table, the action of making the bed or the images on the posters on the wall—anything that might provide a clue to the place where the child is suffering, and might finally lead the police to the abuser.
How can Rose hear to do such work? And all that for a salary of less than $23,000 a year? She said her motivation in joining the work was to protect the public. "When I first started this job, there was anger at the beginning. But when you see what the children have to endure, you know someone has to be there to protect them. If I can play a small part, I will help make a difference."
The 33-year-old woman is enthusiastic about her job. Rose and her team have done what they could to put the children’s life back together. They are very proud of what they have done.
The nature of her work has changed her for the better. "I’m a lot more focused on the positive, much more relaxed about the world. I enjoy the good people around me," she says. Rose thinks that her job is a bit like giving blood. Maybe you don’t like doing it, but someone has to. She regards it as her duty to help abused children.
1.What is Rose’s job?
A. Managing a big business park.
B. Studying images on the posters on the walls.
C. Teaching and looking after abused children.
D. Finding clues that help save abused children.
2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "endure" in Paragraph 2?
A. Suffer. B. Change.
C. Enjoy. D. Expect.
3.Why are Rose and her team satisfied with their job?
A. Because nobody in her country dare to abuse children.
B. Because children will live a happier life than ever before.
C. Because the number of children who are abused will be reduced.
D. Because parents in her country will know how to protect their children.
4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Rose’s life makes her popular.
B. Rose changes herself for the better.
C. Rose makes a difference to the world.
D. Rose’s life has been positively affected by her job.
