15.When I visit Merle,I always head straight to the kitchen.I play with her dog,and get settled at the table while Merle makes cups of tea for us.
We talk about anything we can think of:politics,dogs,the weather,and work.It's a ritual that I look forward to days in advance.
To an outsider,my visit appears to be simply the typical act of a granddaughter visiting her grandmother.But Merle and I are not related.She is my surrogate grandmother(代理外祖母).
I didn't even realize I was in the market for a new grandparent until I gradually found that the relationship between Merle and I was exactly what I had with my maternal(母性的) grandparents---safe and comfortable.
While our relationship developed organically,there are plenty of people who have gone out searching for a grandparent-grandchild relationship.
Sydney-based Cate Kloos started"Find a Grandparent"in May 2012,after moving to Australia from Germany.While she enjoyed a close relationship with her grandparents in her native country,she realized her own children would be without their extended family(大家庭).She wanted them to benefit in the same way that she had.Grandparents,she says,offer a different but essential kind of support.
"Find a Grandparent"works much like a match-mating service,where young families or individuals can ask for someone to act as a grandparent figure in their life.So far,several hundred families have made connections and spend time doing typical activities---lunch,going to movies and sharing stories.
"It is very important to have another person to turn to when they have problems; often grandparents have a different approach to life,"said Kloos.

28.How does the author feel about her visit to Merle?C
A.It is very formal.
B.It makes her nervous.
C.It gives her great pleasure.
D.It is a source of inspiration for her.
29.Why did Kloos decide to start"Find a Parent"?D
A.To honor her grandparents.
B.To make people closer to each other.
C.To bring warmth to elderly people.
D.To enable her kids to get more emotional support.
30.What does Kloos stress in the last paragraph?B
A.The qualities of grandparents.
B.The important role of grandparents.
C.We should have a positive attitude to life.
D.We should spend more time with our family.
31.What's the best title for the text?D
A.Merle and I
B.My role-model
C.Biological or surrogate?
D.Finding surrogate grandparents.

20.One Saturday night,a pastor(牧师) was working late and decided to call his wife before he left for home.It was about 10:00pm,but his wife didn't answer the phone.The pastor let it ring many  (61)times (time).He thought it was strange that she didn't answer and decided to try again in a few minutes.When he  (62)tried (try) again,she answered immediately.He asked her  (63)angrily (angry) why she hadn't answered before,and she said that it hadn't rung at their house.

3.Any list of the greatest thinkers in history contains the name of the brilliant physicist Albert Einstein.His theories of relativity led to entirely new ways of thinking about time,space,matter,energy,and gravity.Einstein's work led to such scientific advances as the control of atomic energy,even television as a practical application of Einstein's work.In 1902 Einstein became an examiner in the Swiss patent office at Bern.In 1905,at 26,he published four of his five major research papers.The first one provided a theory explaining Brownian movement,the zig-zag motion of microscopic particles in suspension (悬浮液).The second paper laid the foundation for the photon (光子),theory of light.In it he proposed that light is composed of separate packets of energy,called photons.A third paper contained the"special theory of relativity"which showed that time and motion are relative to the observer,if the speed of light is constant and the natural laws are the same everywhere in the universe.The fourth paper was a mathematical addition to the special theory of relativity.Here Einstein presented his famous formula,E=mc2,known as the energy mass equivalence (等价).In 1916,Einstein published his general theory of relativity in which he proposed that gravity is not a force,but a curve (曲线) in the space-time continuum (连续体),created by the presence of mass.
  Einstein spoke out frequently against nationalism,the rising of one nation above all others.He opposed war and violence and supported Zionism,the movement to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine.When the Nazis came to power in 1933,they criticized his ideas.He then moved to the United States.In 1939 Einstein learned that two German chemists had split the uranium atom.Einstein wrote to President Franklin D.Roosevelt warning him that this scientific knowledge could lead to Germany developing an atomic bomb.He suggested the United States begin its own atomic bomb research.
