Donna Reid had just finished her training as a children’s doctor. A famous research hospital in New York had offered her a job with good pay. And her boyfriend, Tony, had a clinic in their hometown and hoped she could work with him. At the same time, a small hospital, Backwoods Hospital, in a very poor area had also offered Donna a position. Now it was time for her to decide where to work.

Dad: Donna, that research hospital in New York has a good reputation for children’s medicine. Some of the best children’s doctors in the country work there and you can learn a lot from them.

Mom: Yes, I agree it’s a good hospital and the pay is good, too. But, that’s not the point.

Dad: Then what’s the point?

Mom: It’s in New York, too far away! Let me tell you what, dear Donna. Tony’s clinic is just several blocks away. You don’t need to travel far if you work there. Tony is a nice young man and I guess you’ll get married soon.

Dad: Ha! It’s hard enough to live with a husband or wife. Working with them, too? That’s a choice for trouble. Well, Donna, what do you think?

Donna: I’m thinking about accepting the offer from Backwoods Hospital.

Dad: But Donna, look at their offer! You’ll be on call six days a week, 24 hours a day. That’s really a hard job.

Mom: Oh, Donna, the pay is another problem.

Donna: It isn’t a dead-end job, Mom and Dad. But anyway, I didn’t ____________.

Dad: No? Then why did you become a doctor?

Donna: I want to help people. You know that. And Backwoods serves a very poor and needy population. Backwoods, here I come!

Building Kids’ Fun

Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, Snow White and Winnie the Pooh...every kid dreams of the day they’ll get to visit these famous characters, and ,most important of all, the magical world of a Disney theme park. And five very lucky kids get to experience all the excitement as often as they’d like in their grandpa’s backyard—no waiting in lines necessary.

A Fullerton, California grandfather was inspired to create something so fun in his own backyard that his grandkids would always want to visit.

Steve Dobbs, 68, said his grandchildren got easily bored with a toy train that he got them to play with in his backyard. Lucky for them, he happened to be an amazing aerospace engineer(航空工程师).

“My younger grandkids are nuts about Disneyland,” Dobbs told The Orange County Register website.” I wanted to give them a reason to come over to my house to spend time with me, and Disneyland is tough to compete with.”

It all started with a “Small World” themed ride and it’s only grown from there over time. The mini theme park is full of the same kind of princesses, castles(城堡), trains and tunnels(隧道) you’ll see at the actual Disneyland park, which happens to be not too far from the Fullerton home.

It’s now complete with attractions inspired by Disney movie favorites such as Finding Nemo and Frozen.

And as the kids got older, their grandpa was sure to provide them with the full theme for a roller coaster(过山车). Dobbs is a professor at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, and he asked his students to help him build the ride.

All in all, the theme park has cost him about $6500(43470yuan) but it’s well worth it. “It’s an old man’s hobby,” Dobbs said.

But to his family, it’s so much more than that.

“Dobbsland might be miniature(微型的) in size, but it’s huge in the hearts of our family and friends,” Dobbs’ daughter Cori Linder wrote in a blog for the Babble website. “The best part about Dobbsland? Getting in is free”.

Scientists in Britain and the United States have made a new kind of enzyme(酵素) that eats plastics(塑料). With its help, plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly. Scientists believe that, in the future, it could solve the problem of plastic pollution.

The enzyme is able to break down PET, a form of plastic. PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles. It can remain in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water. So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics.

The researchers made the discovery(发现) while examining the structure of a natural enzyme in Japan. They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics. So, they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids(氨基酸). It made the natural enzyme’s plastic-eating abilities work faster and better.

John McGeehan, one of the lead researchers, said, “We’ve made an improved enzyme. It’s better than the naturl one. And we are trying to make more improvements to it.” He went on, “The enzyme is not harmful to humans or animals,and it is friendly to the environment. So we are considering putting it into wider use.”

The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities(大量的). “We’ll see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology. However,there is still a long way to go,”John McGeehan added.

1.According to the scientists, the enzyme may solve the poblem of pollution.

A. air B. water C. light D. plastic

2.The underlined phrase “break down” in the passage probably means “ ” in Chinese.

A. 实验 B. 生产 C. 发明 D. 分解

3.Researchers discovered that a natural enzyme helped eat plastics .

A. in B. in the US C. in Japan D. in China

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The scientists are sill trying to improve the enzyme.

B. The enzyme will pollute large areas of land and water.

C. The natural enzyme woks better than the improved one.

D. The natural enzyme is harmful to humans and animals.
