Telemedicine is the name for when doctors give advice to patients by telephone or the Internet, or when health care providers in rural areas connect with specialists in big cities.
Telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smart phones, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels. Some health care systems in the United States now offer Virtual Urgent Care, patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home.
Diana Rae is a nurse educator in the western state of Washington. She recently showed how Virtual Urgent Care works. She used an iPad tablet and skype — the video chat service.
Doctor Green has the patient describe her symptoms, then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. Doctor Green decides that the problem is a silence infection. For medicine, he prescribes an antibiotic. He says about 3 out of 4 patients have health problems that can be treated like this —through Virtual Urgent Care, that means a video chat could replace a visit to the doctor's office.
The Franciscan Health System is based in Tacoma, Washington. Franciscan charges $35 for this kind of virtual house call, that is much less than the cost of going to an emergency room, a doctor's office or an urgent care clinic.
After trying the video conference, Diana Rae says, “I would've paid twice that for the convenience of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get exposed to everyone else's germs.”
Franciscan has a deal with a company called Carena to add virtual urgent care by Skype or phone. Carena is one of several companies doing this kind of work around the country. But a company official says state rules have not kept progress with developments in telemedicine. The workers who provide virtual urgent care must be separately licensed in each state where the company does business. For now, that means Carena doctors can treat patients in Washington state and California for example, but not in neighboring Oregon or Idaho.

I was 16 when my father finally decided he would send me to wilderness camp for several months. He had threatened to do it many times before, but my mother had always managed to prevent him from doing so. This time he insisted on doing it.
The latest incident was the last straw. Impulsively(沖動地), I had pushed Mr. Ford, my math teacher, down a flight of steps at school. He broke his arm in two places. Anyway, he had agreed not to accuse me as a favor to my dad, who was in the middle of a tight race for sheriff(執法官) in our town. But my reckless behavior had my dad’s closest advisor talking.
“John, he’s your son and he’s a kid, but he is dragging you down,” I heard Jake Hutch tell my dad through his closed office door the night after I pushed Mr. Ford. “If you can’t make your son obey the rules, how can you make the law obeyed in this town?”
So, off to Pisgah National Forest I went. I imagined hours of untold abuse at the hands of some strong sergeants(軍士). I was determined no to be broken. I was who I was.
Nearly every day for six months, a small group of other troubled teens and I carried our 30-pound backpacks on a difficult journey covering about 10 miles. We hiked in a rough wilderness that seemed untouched by civilization.
Our sergeants were firm but kind, not frightening as I had imagined. We learned how to make a fire without matches and create a shelter with branches and grass. We learned which plants were safe to eat out in the wild. I felt myself change. I was calm and often reflective. My old, impulsive self was gone.
One morning, six months later, my dad came to pick me up. I ran to hug him and saw relief and love in his eyes.
“So what’s it like being sheriff?” I asked on the ride home.
“I lost the race, Danny,” he said.
“I’m sorry, Dad.” I knew my behavior probably had a lot to do with the defeat.
Dad squeezed my shoulder and brought me close. “As long as I don’t ever lose you, I’m okay.”
1.The author was finally sent to wilderness because _____.
A. he could learn how to survive in the wild
B. his teacher insisted on giving him a lesson
C. he pushed his math teacher down the stairs
D. his mother feared that he would be accused
2.The underlined word “reckless” in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.
A. selfish B. careless C. rude D. reasonable
3.What can we learn about the author from the passage?
A. He changed a lot after the camp.
B. He was not satisfied with his life in the camp.
C. He was still what he used to be after the camp.
D. He made enemies with other troubled teens at the camp.
4. How did the author’s father feel at the end of the story?
A. Grateful. B. Annoyed.
C. Disappointed D. Relieved

What is known to all ,some parents would rather their children rent houses outside the school instead of living in a dorm. There are advantage for both. Living in a dorm must strengthen relationship or cooperation between classmates. A dorm is more like a society, which enables students learn to adapt to each other, thus makes them prepared for the social life later. However, some students find that more convenient for them to live outside the school on their own than living in a dorm. And it’s better for their studies as they won’t be interrupted by other. As a consequence, they can devote a plenty of time to studying. But it is impossible that they will meet some safety problems when living outside the school.

I was in my way home from college when I got a phone call, telling me that my best friend sudden passed away. On heard the news, I sat on the ground and cried. People stepped over us. Then I saw a pair of shoe in front of me. It was a young man, whom was probably in his twenties. He asked me what had happened and brought me to cafe, treating me for a cup of coffee. I calmed down a little when he gently suggested I washed my face. When I came back from the bathroom, he was disappeared. The woman behind the counter said he had paid a full dinner for me and left money in case I needed a taxi home.

Edda, a Little Valkyrie’s First Day of School
Written and illustrated(配圖) by Adam Auerbach.
32 pp. Christy Ottaviano/Holt. $15.50.
Edda’s home is in Asgard, “a land full of magic and adventure.” But Edda, the littlest Valkyrie, doesn’t have quite enough to do, until her father flies her “all the way to Earth for the first day of school.”
The contrast between home and school is hard to get used to (in one, she can ride reindeer; in the other she gazes guinea pig(天竺鼠) through glass at the classroom). In his first picture book, Auerbach mixes the two worlds perfectly. Children are likely to appreciate the joke.
Planet Kindergarten
By Sue Ganz-Schmitt. Illustrated by Shane Prigmore.
32 pp. Chronicle. $14.99.
After careful preparations and a successful blastoff, a boy finds himself in a very unfamiliar environment. “We’re aliens from many galaxies(星系) on Planet Kindergarten,” he reflects as he sees his very varied classmates for the first time.
Prigmore, who designs for the movie industry, uses black backgrounds and bright colors to give this space adventure visual excitement and humor.
The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade
By Justin Roberts. Illustrated by Christian Robinson.
42 pp. Putnam. $18.99.
It makes sense that the author of the long, rhyming lines in “The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade” is a children’s music performer. The story is about the power of one small person to fight prejudice.
Sally, whom no one ever seems to notice, is “paying super extra special attention” to the “terrible stuff” happening around her. When she decides to take action, she’s not alone for long.
And Two Boys Booed
By Judith Viorst.
32 pp. Margaret Ferguson/Farrar, Straus & Giroux. $16.59.
Ever felt quietly confident one minute, and a shaking mess the next? In Viorst’s story about determination, a little boy wakes up thinking about singing his song in the class talent show.
1.Which of the following is true about the book Edda, a Little Valkyrie’s First Day of School?
A. Edda found it easy to apply herself to the life on earth.

C. The book was illustrated by Shane Prigmore.
D. The story of the book was about a little boy’s determination.

DEAR AMY: We recently had to put our cat down. It came out of the blue. We had no idea that he had health problems, and we woke up early one morning to the cat crying out painfully. We immediately rushed him to the vet’s where the vet said that at best treatment might lengthen his life by two to three months. We did not want to see him suffer, so we chose to kill the cat in a painless way.
I am having a rough time! I cry when I am alone. I cry when I see pet commercials on television. I put away everything that reminds me of the cat. But the last sight of seeing the cat in pain plays over and over in my head. My kids seem alright with what has happened, but why am I struggling?
It has only been one week since his passing, so I hope things will get better. Do you have any suggestions?
Yours,
Sad
DEAR SAD: There is no loss quite like the loss of a pet; these animals keep us company through important life passages and are beloved witnesses to our human lives.
I understand your instinct to put away all of your cat’s things, but it may help you now to memorialize your pet by using these things. Each family member can write down favorite things about him or memories of him; read their memories aloud and put the papers inside his bowl. The idea is to replace those painful last memories with much more lively memories taking place over the most of the animal’s life.
Time will then do its job, which is to affect your feelings. And then, when you’re ready, I hope you will adopt another animal and give it the opportunity to share your life.
Yours,
Amy
1.Which of the following made the author’s family choose to kill the cat in a painless way?
A.The cat had changed its color.
B.The vet himself had no way to save its life.

D.The cat suffered so much that it could die at any time.

A.she was alone at home
B.she thought of her lovely cat
C.she didn’t like to see the things of the cat
D.her children showed no feeling over the cat’s death
3.What does the underlined phrase mean in Paragraph 1?
A.In the color of blue. B.Very sadly.
C.All of a sudden. D.With much pain.
4.What do we know from the last paragraph of Amy’s letter?
A.The longer it is, the less you will feel sad about your pet.
B.It is important to find a new pet as soon as possible.
C.As time goes on, you will feel more sorrow about your pet.
D.One can’t live a happy life without a pet around him.

Florida is celebrating a big anniversary this year. Five hundred years ago, on April 2, 1513, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce arrived on the east coast of what is now Florida. Native Americans had been living there for centuries, but Ponce was the first European to set foot in what would become the 
United States.
According to legend, Ponce may have landed in Florida by mistake. He is said to have been looking for an island called Bimini and its Fountain(噴泉) of Youth. The magical fountain could supposedly make old people young again. Instead, Ponce landed on Florida and claimed it for Spain. He named it La Florida, or “flowery place”.
Ponce explored more of Florida’s coasts over the next few months. He later returned to Spain but went back to Florida in 1521 to attempt to set up a colony. However, native Americans attacked him and his friends, and Ponce was killed. It wasn’t until 1565 that Spain set up a successful colony at St. Augustine on Florida’s east coast. It is the oldest European settlement in the U.S.
Florida didn’t belong to the U.S. until Spain lost control. It was admitted to the U.S. as the 27th state in 1845.
Today, Florida has one of the fastest-growing populations of any state. More than 19 million people call it home
.
It’s also popular with tourists. Last year, 89 million people visited the Sunshine State. These days, most visitors come in search of fun in the sun on its sandy beaches and its theme parks, such as Disney World and Sea World.
1. Five hundred years ago,_____.
A. the United States was founded
B. the first European came to Florida
C. Florida was discovered by human beings
D. Spanish explorer Juan Ponce was born
2. What can we learn about Ponce from Paragraph 2?
A. He hated Florida
B. He discovered Florida by accident
C. He finally found Fountain of Youth
D. He could make old people young again.
3. Ponce was killed_____.
A. by his friends
B. on his way to Florida
C. during his second stay in Florida
D. after he set up a colony
4. Which of the following is TRUE about Florida?
A. Tourists are losing interest in it.
B. Its beaches are not well protected.
C. There are 89 million people in Florida at present.
D. Its population has been increasing in recent years.
