I have a close friend Rex, who I take as my better friend in this school for foreign students. I met him when I arrived on a first day, and he was helping with new students to find directions. I remember clearly he gave me a broad smile, and our friendship began. He is very humor, and he has endless interesting stories they make me amused. Besides, he is very understanding. He，s always comforting me when I in low spirits. He even invites friends live nearby to play with me to overcome my homesickness. Rex teach me much about my country’s language and culture.

Over and over again I meet babies desperately 1. (try) to “read” a magazine with fingers. I am constantly shocked: How can these parents stay at ease when their kids 2. (harm) so much from technology? How on earth can they not know what a magazine is in other ways?
Researchers from Canada looked at this. The results were not good, especially for younger children. They found that parents that used technology too much negatively affected their 3.

I always used to think that the drive across a four-kilometer stretch from my house to the main road was a pain. Almost everyone in the world seemed to want to go somewhere at the same time. And exactly at the moment when our car inched towards the front, the lights would turn red again. 1.
Then one day something magical happened. The fact is my neck was a bit stiff that morning. 2. Beyond the pavement a gulmohar (凤凰木) tree with a vivid crown of bright red and orange blossoms in bunches. The small leaves were equally beautiful. I racked my head for expressions to describe them.
The gulmohar’s small neighbor was cooler. I recognized it as an Ashoka tree. I felt that the Ashoka did not have a private music collection of its own. My gaze shifted to its neighbor. Now this one was a beauty in its own way. They seemed to be friends. 3. The Ashoka looked like their parent or guardian content to be in its own world.
Suddenly the trees seemed to be moving away from me. Had they set out on their outing already?4. The traffic lights had turned green and we were on our way. For the first time I felt the traffic signal was not such a bad sort. 5. Did that feel good!

B. Then I realized what it was.
C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D. It was a clear five-minute wait there.
E. The red light is always attractive to me.
F. As I moved my head to the left I saw it for the first time.
G. Rather, they seemed like two young girls planning a happy outing.
Like most of you, I’ve grown up with science putting it into my head that eating Cholesterol (胆固醇) is bad for us. My doctor has scolded me repeatedly for liking high-cholesterol snacks. But now, after 40 years of giving cholesterol such a rap, the scientific experts are reportedly ready to reverse (颠倒) themselves. Suddenly, we’re going to be told that high-cholesterol foods are not bad for us after all.
This isn’t the first time science reverses what it believes to be true, nor will it be the last. To optimists, the fluidity of science’s conclusions is a good thing - prove that science is always correcting itself in light of the very latest information. But a modem society that looks increasingly to science for not just what to eat, but also how to behave and what to think? How can we trust an authority that often changes its mind in extreme ways?
Science’s typical way isn’t limited to matters of nutrition. Go ahead and check it out for yourself by looking at the qualifiers used in the vast majority of honestly written science news articles. You’ll see that the stories are laced with weak words and phrases such as: some, in certain circumstances, probably, perhaps, may, could, tends, suggests, indicates, according to, is linked to, plays a role in. The grave problem I’ve observed over the years is that too often science and its reporters create the impression of certainty when none is proved. The cholesterol story is but one example of that make-believe certainty.
How much should we be concerned about this? A great deal, I believe, given science’s great and growing influence on our lives. At the very least, each of us needs to -understand that the scientific worldview — impressive as it surely is — is built on shifting sands. As Einstein once observed, “No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right; a single experiment can prove me wrong.”
1.The underlined part “giving cholesterol such a rap” (in Para. 1) means the author .

A. are worrying B. are meaningless
C. are a good thing in a way D. are the major way to improve science
3.According to the text, which of the following is NOT the word commonly used in scientific articles?
A. Likely B. Surely
C. Seems D. Appears
4.What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Science can blind us.
B. Science need be open to doubt.
C. Science is not as important as thought.
D. Science should be built on experiments.
