Matt Scott, who was born with spina bifida (脊柱裂)，grew up in Detroit, Michigan, where he participated in a variety of sports alongside his healthy friends. Now as a member of University of Wis­consin -Whitewater wheelchair basketball team, Scott has won four national championships, and hats' recently been selected to the Paralympic team for the second time. The 23 ― year 一 old college senior owes his achievements to his hard work and the support of his friends and family, who never allowed him to use his disability as an excuse. "My mother was always great. Whenever I felt giving up, she had no sympathy. She really helped me build my independence by not babying me the way other mothers would have," Scott says.
It was Scott' s independent nature and strong will, along with his on - the - court skills, that at­tracted the attention of America's most influential sports apparel (衣服)company, Nike. Nike was searching for an athlete with a disability to represent its "Just Do It " trademark. A handful of super­star athletes with disabilities came to audition for the role, but the company picked Scott to star in the 30 一 second commercial.
"I think that they were looking for the prettiest face in America, and found me," Scott jokes about the selection process.
After being picked, Scott flew to California to film the commercial with Oscar - winning docu­mentary director Errol Morris. The ad gave Scott celebrity (名人)status in the community of disabled athletes. He's been asked to speak at a number of disability - related events, and feels it's his duty to use the media to draw attention to those with disabilities. "I've been given a voice, and I want to do whatever I can to break down the social barriers that are still faced by disabled athletes, and make people realize that they have a very high athletic level," Scott says.

Virginia is set to begin enforcing the toughest drunken-driving punishment, one that will require thousands of first-time offenders­­—whether they were highly drunk or slightly over the limit – to install (安装) in their cars blood-alcohol testing devices that can lock the ignition. The devices work like this－A driver must blow into a blood alcohol device linked to the car’s ignition. If the result is higher than the legal limit, the car will not start. The device also requires random “rolling retests” once the driver is on the road.
Virginia’s current law requires only repeat drunken-driving offenders or those with a blood alcohol level of 0.15 or higher to have an ignition interlock device in their car.
The new law, which takes effect in July, will roughly increase the number of people required to use ignition interlock devices four times, and offenders will have to pay about $ 480 for a typical six-month installation.
The measure has caused a debate between groups battling drunken driving and those representing offenders. Such groups as Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the Washington Regional Alcohol Program say that Virginia’s 274 alcohol-related road deaths and more than 5,500 injuries in 2010 remained unacceptably high despite years of cracking down on drunken driving. Ignition interlock devices, they say, reduce repeat offenses. But some public defenders and lawyers argue that the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders at the legal blood alcohol limit of 0.08, and that the court system will be burdened by more cases going to trial and lower-income drivers will be affected by the fees.
Del. Sal R. laquinto, who sponsored the bill, had a simple reply for concerns about the costs of the interlock devices: “How much does a life cost?” “Blowing into a tube for six months, you will remember that, ” Iaquinto said, “ and you are not likely to offend again. ”
【小题1】The ignition probably refers to the part in a car where ______.

A．the alarm goes off B．the car is fueled
C．the key is placed D．the engine starts
【小题2】Who are required to install the blood-alcohol devices according to the current law?
A．The repeat drunken-driving offenders.
B．The first time drunken-driving offenders.
C．Drivers whose blood alcohol level is below 0.15.
D．The drivers who are not able to pay offence fees.
【小题3】Some groups support the new law because ______.
A．the government can be financed to build roads
B．some traffic deaths and injuries may be avoided
C．lower-income drivers will not afford to drink again
D．the court system is forced to work more effectively
【小题4】The debate aroused by the measure suggests that ______.
A．justice has long arms
B．punishment is the key to all
C．no law is absolutely perfect
D．prevention is better than cure

Instead of a normal court hearing, the trial on Wednesday appeared more like a prepared drama. Hundreds of reporters waited outside the court, in the hope of learning “shocking” information about the case, which includes well-known military singer Li Shuangjiang’s son, who gang-raped a woman with another four men on February.

The case was not a public hearing because it includes teenagers, whose privacy must be protected under law, but many details had been exposed by the lawyers before the trial.

Lawyers of all five suspects and the woman’s lawyer made a lot of debate on the Internet before the trial, making the case more confused.

Wu Ming’an, a law professor from the China University of Political Science and Law, said it was a pity to see such a “performance” by the lawyers.

“It can be understood that the two parties freely spoke their opinions, but it’s not professional or wise to see lawyers do the same,” Wu said. “Instead, the lawyers should guide and persuade their clients(当事人) to calm down, especially for such a non-public and sensitive case.”

China has no clear rule to manage lawyers’ behavior before trials, “but it should be general knowledge that the lawyers of the two sides cannot leak too many details, particularly in a case that includes teenagers”, Wu added.

Yi Shenghua, a lawyer who has been following the case, said it does more harm than good to both parties for such detailed information to be exposed before the trial.

“It’s OK for lawyers to speak, but what is said must be reasonable and legal. Although judgments should not be affected by public opinion, it’s hard for them not to be,” he said, suggesting judicial authorities should speak out if the case goes wrongly.

Trials must be conducted based on evidence, while lawyers should protect their clients’ rights instead of adding fuel to the flames, Yi said.

In my eyes, the most important aspect of the case, lies in how to make lawyers do their work more professionally and reasonably.

1.Why was the case not a public hearing?

A. Because it included the well-known military singer Li Shuangjiang’s son.

B. Because the victim was a woman.

C. Because teenagers’ privacy must be protected under law.

D. Because many details had already been exposed before the trial.

2.What is Wu ming’an’s attitude towards the lawyers’ behavior of making a lot of debate on the internet before the trial?

A. approval   B. critical   C. neutral   D. indifferent

3.The underlined part “leak” in para. 6 refers to_________.

A. give away   B. squeeze out   C. break down   D. sweep up

4.From Yi Shenghua, we know that _______________.

A. The lawyers’ behavior before trials hasn’t been ruled.

B. It doesn’t matter whether the detailed information is exposed before the trial.

C. What lawyers say must be reasonable and legal.

D. It is hard for judgments to be affected by public opinion.

 

 “In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”

“Two full inches in the first three days!”

These are the kinds of statements used in magazine, newspaper, radio and television ads, promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device (设备；装置). The promoters (推销员；促销员) of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to beauty or desirability.  

Often such products are nothing more than money--making things for their promoter. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.  

To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation (条例). If the product is a drug, FDA（Food Drug Administration） can require proof （证明）under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market . But if the product is a device, FDA. has no author to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the marker is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action , including seizure （查封） of the product.  

One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device  on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.  

Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings（法律诉讼）,and new devices appear continually. Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.  

1.It can be inferred that ads mentioned in the text are ______.  

A．objective

B．costly

C．unreliable (不可靠的 )

D．illegal

2.Which of the following is true according to the text?

A. The court is in charge of removing dangerous product.  

B. New products are more likely to be questionable.  

C. The production of a device must be approved by FDA.  

D. The promoters usually just care about profits.  

3. FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product ________.  

A．if it is a drug

B．if it is a device

C．if its consumers make complaints

D．if its distributors challenge FDA’s authority

4.The Relaxacisor is mentioned as_______.  

A．a product which was designed to produce electricity

B．a product whose distributor (批发商；批发公司) was involved in a legal case

C．a successful advertisement of a beauty product

D．an example of a quality beauty product

5.The author intends to __________

A. make consumers aware of the promoters’ false promises

B. show the weakness of the law on product safety

C. give advice on how to keep young and beautiful

D. introduce the organization of FDA.
