Before the boy could say anything, his mother grabbed his arm and shook it. “Is it true? You stole? Tell me!” Everyone was quiet. The boy began to cry, and he nodded his head. He pulled out the comic book (漫画书) from under his shirt. “Oh, Mr. Kim. I am sorry! My Ted made a big mistake!” Mrs. Diaz told my father. She tried to take the comic book, but Ted wouldn’t let go. “It’s OK. He can keep it,” my father said with a smile. “Oh no,” Mrs. Diaz said. “Let me pay right now ...” She dug in her purse. “How much?” “Three seventy-five.” Mrs. Diaz’s eyes widened, and she dug deeper. I saw her mouth make a small line. “Three seventy-five?” she asked. “It’s OK. You can pay later,” my father said. “No,” Mrs. Diaz said. She kept looking in her purse. “I have money here.” I felt bad for yelling, for I realized that Ted had tried to steal the comic book because he didn’t have the money. Maybe the boy could have a job, I thought. I had an idea. “What if he worked with me?” I asked. They turned to me. I said, “He can work with me to pay for the comic book.” “Good,” my father said smiling at me. Mrs. Diaz nodded. She turned to her son, “You hear? You will work and buy the comic book!” “Yes, Mama,” Ted said, hanging his head. As they left, Ted looked back, and though he still seemed sad, he stuck out (伸出) his tongue at me.

B The global financial crisis is likely to cause increased mental health problems as people struggle to deal with poverty and unemployment, the World Health Organization warned Thursday． Hundreds of millions of people worldwide are already affected by mental problems such as depression and bipolar disorders （带躁狂的抑郁症） and the current market meltdown （崩溃） could worsen feelings of despair among people who can't stand such illnesses． The United Nations agency said the impact could be especially marked for those living in low and middle income countries where access to treatment is often limited． "We should not be surprised at the turbulence （动荡） and likely consequences of the current financial crisis．Now we are seeing a huge gap in taking care of people in great need," WHO director general Margaret Chan told at a meeting of mental health experts． "It should not come as a surprise that we continue to see more stresses, suicides and mental disorders," Chan warned． Benedetto Saraceno, director of WHO's mental health, said mental health disorders affected one in four people at some point in their lives． Mental and neurological disorders are often chronic （慢性） and disabling, he said．Nearly 1 million people commit suicide worldwide every year, a large part of them are young adults． Asked about the financial crisis, Saraceno said, "Poverty can be the consequence of such events, the debts, despair and sense of loss that may reach middle and lower classes．Even the poor can be affected by this crisis．" "There is clear evidence that suicide is linked to financial disasters．I am not talking about the millionaire's jumping out of the window but about poor people," he said．The global crisis could be expected to affect the "stability of communities and families", according to Saraceno． 60．According to the passage, the chief result of the worldwide financial crisis is that ． A．more people will be poorer B．more people will be out of jobs C．more people will suffer from mental problems D．more people will commit suicide 61．The United Nations agency worried that ． A．more rich people would commit suicide B．the financial crisis might especially influence developing or underdeveloped countries C．the current market meltdown could worsen feelings of despair D．hundreds of millions of people in the world were already affected by mental problems 62．It can be inferred that ． A．far more work should be done to help those who are mentally ill B．it will be surprising to see more people commit suicide C．a mental disorder is a chronic disease D．many more young adults commit suicide worldwide than people of other ages 63．The best title for the passage is ． A．Global Financial Crisis． B．Mental Disorders Resulting From Global Financial Crisis． C．Suicides as a Result of Market Meltdown． D．Chronic Mental Disorders．

D Researchers are placing robotic dogs（机器狗）in the homes of lonely old people to determine whether they can improve the quality of life for humans. Alan Beck, an expert in human-animal relationship, and Nancy Edwards, a professor of nursing, are leading the animal-assisted study concerning the influence of robotic dogs on old people’s depression, physical activity, and life satisfaction. “No one will argue that an older person is better off being more active, challenged, or stimulated ,”Edwards points out. “The problem is how we promote that, especially for those without friends or help. A robotic dog could be a solution.” In the study, the robot, called AIBO, is placed for six weeks in the houses of some old people who live alone. Before placing AIBO in the home, researchers will collect baseline data for six weeks. These old people will keep a diary to note their feelings and activity before and after AIBO. Then, the researchers will review the data to determine if it has inspired any changes in the life of its owner. “I talk to him all the time, and he responds to my voice,” says a seventy-year-old lady, “When I’m watching TV, he’ll stay in my arms until he wants down. He has a mind of his own.” The AIBOs respond to certain orders. The researchers say they have some advantages over live dogs, especially for old people. Often the elderly are disabled and cannot care for an animal by walking it or playing with it. A robotic dog removes exercise and feeding concerns. “At the beginning, it was believed that no one would relate to the robotic dog, because it was metal and not furry.” Beck says，“But it’s amazing how quickly we have given up that belief.” “Hopefully, down the road, these robotic pets could become a more-valuable health helper. They will record their masters’ blood pressure, oxygen levels, or heart rhythms. AIBOs may even one day have games that can help stimulate older people’s minds.” 68．The purpose of Beck and Edwards’ study is to . A．understand human-animal relationship B．make lonely old people’s life better C．find the causes of old people’s loneliness D．promote the animal-assisted research 69．In the research, the old people are asked to . A．note the activities of AIBOs B．keep AIBOs at home for 12 weeks C．record their feelings and activity D．analyze the collected information 70．What is the advantage of AIBO over live dogs? A．It is easier to keep at home. B．It can help the disabled people. C． It responds to all the human orders. D．It can watch TV with its owner. 71．The author seems to suggest that the future robotic dogs may . A．cure certain diseases B．keep old people active C． change people’s beliefs D．look more like real dogs
