Tears clouded my eyes as I stood in our washing room, holding Brett's jeans and shirt full of burn holes. Tired and defeated, I 1 to the floor. The clothes were just one more thing Brett had 2 .

After that, my husband and I had to send Brett to a boarding school for helping 9 teens (少年). At the 10 ceremony, each graduate held a white rose to give to the person who had 11 the most to him or her. Brett spoke 12 to his parents and then spoke to me, "You did so much. You were always there, no matter 13 . My mom and dad, I am their kid. But you, 14 troubled enough by me, always 15 me such love. And I want you to know I love you for it." 16 , I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me 17 . At that moment, tears 18 in my eyes again, this time not for disappointment but for 19 . Although I had struggled with silent 20 toward my stepson (继子), Brett had seen only my actions. Love is action. We may not always have positive feelings about certain people in our life, but we can love them. | ||||

"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. The promoters 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. Where 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. If the product is a drug, FDA (Food Drug Administration) can require proof (证明) under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that 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 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, had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the customers through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the products to the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life. Obviously, most of the devices on the maker 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 the safety or effectiveness of such items. |

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 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 |

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict," he jokes."I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled." Today David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. "I'm working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable." More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress- down Friday" or "casual Friday." "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing," said business consultant Maisly Jones. Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale (士气). Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said. "For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes." |

[1] Until that day when he was told that he was likely to get a bone cancer, Bruce Feiler had been living a happy life. He was a bestselling author of many books. He had a loving marriage and twin three-year-old girls. His doctor's sudden bad news left him shocked."Would my daughters wonder who I was if I died? Would they wonder what I thought?" Feiler recalls. [2] One day, Feiler got a big idea: he would get a group of trusted men to serve as surrogate (代理) fathers after his death. His new book, The Council of Dads, recalls that moment:"I started making a list of men from all parts of my life. These are the men who know me best, men who traveled with me, studied with me, men who know my voice..." And each man should have one or two things in common with Feiler. [3] Feiler made his first request to Shumlin, a farmer. The two became friends just after high school. Feiler chose him because he was an adventurer who always said "yes" to life. [4] Other dads on Feiler's list include Ben, a teacher who would invite the kids to seek the truth of life and another man, named Henry, who believes in the power of friendship. [5] David Black, the editor and close friend who helped Feiler become a well-known writer, also made the cut. "I work to help people's dreams come true," he recalls. "That's in part what Feiler asked of me, to be a member of the Council." [6] However, the diagnosis (诊断) that led Feiler to has proved wrong. Today, Feiler is cancer-free. But he says his idea has caught on, and he believes that his book, The Council of Dads, and the website councilofdads. com is inspiring similar groups to form wherever dads seek strength in the fellowship of fathers. |
