2:19 P.M. Six minutes into summer vacation, and it already sucks. My best friend, Jen, just hugged me goodbye because her parents are putting her on a plane to Costa Rica today. So she can spend the summer there and bring monkeys back to life for Kids Saving the Rainforest.
As for me, the only “monkey” I’ll see this summer is my mom’s new boyfriend. They’re both lawyers. She met him about three months ago--- they have a case together. My mom is so crazy over him she can’t even see his potato-like forehead, his ears sticking out and that his eyes are too closely set. If I knew an anthropologist(人类学家), I would call her because this man is clearly the missing link between humans and monkeys.
2:22 p.m. That’s another reason this summer will suck. When Mom isn’t working, she’s out with the Missing Link. So she won’t be taking me to any movies, my all-time favorite thing to do. I need to go my Hollywood places. But I’m only 15 and don’t have my license, so anything I do has to be within walking distance.
I know it sounds crazy, but when I watch all those movies, I can picture myself on the screen. Yes, me. Saffron Jones. Future star. At present I was stuck in Brockport for the summer with a missing best friend, a missing mom and the Missing Link.

I always felt sorry for the people in wheelchair. Some people, old and week, cannot get around by themselves. Others seem perfectly healthy, dressed in business suits. But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair, I only saw a disability, not a person..
Then I fainted（晕倒）at Euro Disney due to low blood pressure. This was the first time I had ever fainted, and my parents said that I must rest for a while after First Aid. I agreed to take it easy but, as I stepped towards the door, I saw my dad pushing a wheelchair in my direction! Feeling the color burn my cheeks, I asked him to wheel that thing right back to where he found it.
I could not believe this was happening to me. Wheelchairs were fine for other people but not for me, as my father wheeled me out into the main street, people immediately began to treat me differently.
Little kids ran in front of me, forcing my father to stop the wheelchair suddenly. Bitterness set in as I was thrown back and forth. “Stupid kids---they have perfectly good legs. Why can’t they watch where they are going?” I thought. People stared down at me, pity in their eyes. Then they would look away, maybe because they thought the sooner they forgot me, the better.
“I’m just like you!” I wanted to cry. “The only difference is that you’ve got legs, and I have wheels.”
People in wheelchairs are not stupid. They see every look and hear each word. Looking out at the faces, I finally understood: I was once just like them. I treated people in wheelchairs exactly the way they didn’t want to be treated. I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are truly disabled.

C. life is so changeable that nobody can foretell
D. one should not do to others what he would not like others do to him
15. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. How to Get Used to Wheelchairs
B. The Wheels Are as Good as Two Legs
C. People with Two Legs Are Truly Healthy
D. The Difference between Healthy People and the Disabled

In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps firefighters. The computer contains information about every one of the 350,000 street addresses in the city. When firefighters answer a call, the computer will give them important information about the burning building, its position, size, type and so on. In fact, the computer system has almost unlimited ways of helping firefighters with the problems facing them. For instance, it can give medical information about invalids living in a burning building. With this information, the firefighters can take special care to find these sick persons and remove them quickly and safely.
The Kansas City computer system also keeps a medical record of each of the city’s 900 firefighters. This kind of information is especially useful when a fireman is injured. With this medical information, doctors at the hospital can treat the injured firefighter more quickly and easily.
