Twelve years ago yesterday, my mother gave birth to the most beautiful girl. 31 , we were later given the 32 that this little girl, who was three and a half months old, would only have 14 days on the earth. It’s hard to understand what kind of 33 you have when you find out that you’re 34 something that you don’t even know.
As time went on, the number of days kept growing, which gave us 35 . When the doctors said that we could take her home, that was 36 reality hit. We had no 37 .
I am from a small town with 38 hospitals, but when you don’t have money, you just don’t have it. My mother tried for days to get the money, but nothing 39 each time. A caseworker(社会工作者) was even doing her best. It’s 40 that it almost felt as if we had to 41 a baby from the hospital.
One day the caseworker walked into her boss’s office to 42 again. As she walked out, 43 down yet again, out of nowhere a man walked up to her. He 44 her a handful of money and said, “Please give this to the lady in 45 , so she can take her daughter home.” She looked down at her hand with tears in her eyes. As she looked back up to thank him, he was 46 . They searched all over that hospital and he was no where to be 47 .
Thanks to the guy that I will 48 know, we could take home that 49 baby girl that was only given 14 days to live, and celebrated her 12th birthday yesterday. I am grateful to this man and feel that his act of 50 should be shared with everyone.

I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old．My mother told us that we would not be 26 Christmas gifts because there was not enough money．I felt sad and thought, "What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 27 ?" Just when I started to 28 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 29 at our house with gifts for all of us．For me they brought a doll．I felt such a sense of 30 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school．I wasn’t 31 ．Somebody had thought 32 of me to bring me a gift．
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 33 Christmas there special and memorable, I 34 remembered the women’s visit．I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 35 for as many children as I could possibly reach．
So I 36 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help．We gathered about 125 orphans （孤儿） at the Christmas party．For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies, 37 with a child’s name．We wanted all of them to know they were 38．Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I 39 them that they couldn’t open their presents 40 every child had come forward．Finally the 41 they had been waiting for came as I called out, "One, two, three．Open your presents!" As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 42 up the room．The 43 in the room was obvious, and 44 wasn’t just about toys．It was a feeling — the feeling I knew 45 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit．I wasn’t forgotten．Somebody thought of me．I matter．

The US government has started a website, Admongo, to help children think critically about the advertising aimed at them. It claims to provide visitors with an “aducation” through games and other entertainment.
A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo. "Call me Haiz", he says upon arrival in a rocket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it. Spacey dance music plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising.
Its inventors say eight to twelve years old is the age kids develop their critical thinking abilities. Kids that age are also a big market for advertisers.
The idea behind Admongo is to teach children three things: To identify the advertiser. To know what the advertiser is really saying. And to know what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do.
Children learn these things through a video game. They create their own game character. They can choose different skin colors, hair styles, eye and mouth shapes. Then they begin a trip through ad-land, where there are ads on buses and billboards. The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level.
The Admongo game takes players inside a home, to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found. It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing.
One such area is food marketing. The Federal Trade Commission(FTC) says it is a big business. The FTC estimates that food, drink and fast-food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2009.
The FTC says children are important for three reasons. They buy products. They influence parents and caregivers to buy. And they are the future adult buyers of the products.
A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value. First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children.
【小题1】What is the best title of the text?
| A．The guide of Admongo |

| C．A popular online video game |
| D．A website aimed at children |
| A．To attract the biggest market of buyers. |

| C．To help children know about advertising. |
| D．To advertise the video game for children. |
| A．Choose hair styles for their character. |
| B．Travel to a supermarket. |
| C．Eat in a fast-food restaurant. |
| D．Play video games during the trip. |
| A．important for the society |
| B．the most potential buyers |
| C．easily influenced by ads |
