For the disabled sisters, who both have spina bifida (脊柱裂), it may have seemed that all hopes were lost at that time. But a
9、fter being adopted by a British couple, they have become two of the countrys most promising wheelchair basketball stars. In 2005, the Haizes adopted them. Then, they moved to the UK when Joy was six and Miriam was seven. The girls discovered the wheelchair basketball through a chance conversation, w
10、hich Mr. Haize had with a friend in 2011. They hadnt known wheelchair sports before, but Joy was hooked from the beginning. While Miriam loved the sport, it took her a little longer to become a serious athlete. “I used to have really low self-respect,” she said. “Its only when Joy got into the Under
11、 25s European Championships in 2013 that I started to take basketball seriously. It gave me a path to follow.” Miriam was then chosen to play at both regional trials and the Sainsburys School Games in 2014. Of course, she earned herself a place at the famous GB Futures training camp. “GB Futures hel
12、ped me a lot. It helped me take basketball to another level and learn more about the game and its history. It also helped me be more independent,” said Miriam. Meanwhile, Joy is currently the youngest player on the GB womens team but she is making her mark on the international stage, having represen
13、ted Great Britain in tournaments (锦标赛) all over the world. The teenagers are now eager to encourage others to explore the world of wheelchair sports. “You should have confidence in yourself.

But too much Internet use by teens or too little, for that matter might be related to depression, a new study finds. The findings, reported in the journa
18、l of Pediatrics, do not mean that the Internet is to blame. For one, teens in the study who spent no time online were also at increased risk of depression symptoms. Instead, the researchers say that both heavy Internet use, and non-use, could serve as signals that a teenager is having a hard time. F
19、or the study, Dr Pierre-Andre Michaud and his colleagues at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, surveyed 7,200 individuals aged 16 to 20 about their Internet use. Those who were online more than two hours per day were considered “heavy” Internet users,while those online anywhere from several ti
20、mes per week to two hours per day were considered “regular” users. The teenagers also answered a number of health-related questions, including some standard questions about depressive tendencies” that gauge(判定) how often a person feels sad or hopeless. Compared with regular Internet users, the study
21、 found, kids who were heavy users or non-users were more likely to be depressed or very depressed. Among male teens,heavy users and non-users were both around one-third more likely to have a high depression score,compared to “regular” users. Among girls, heavy Internet users had an 86 percent greate
22、r chance of depression, while non-users had a 46 percent greater likelihood compared to regular users. That was with factors like family income and any chronic health problems taken into account. Since teenagers typically go online to contact with friends,the researchers speculate(推测) that those who
23、 are never online may be more socially isolated.1.How long are those who are online per day considered “heavy” Internet users?A.More than two hours.B.More than eight hours.C.More than twelve hours.D.More than ten hours.2.Whats the purpose of Dr Michaud and his colleagues study?A.To know the actual n

26、 possibility to be depressed than heavy users.4、 A study, conducted by David Evans of the World Bank and Anna Popova of Stanford University, looked at 19 programs around the world in which individuals were given cash transfers (汇款)from the government, either as a handout or as a “reward” for somethi
27、ng like getting kids to school on time or taking them to the doctor for checkups. Evans and Popova looked at the impact those cash transfers had on the family budget and whether or not they led to an increase in spending on alcohol and cigarettes .What they found was that they almost always led to a
28、 reduction in a familys alcohol and tobacco purchases. The news may surprise some people, but its true, and the researchers have several theories about why. One theory is that the cash transfer made things possible that once seemed impossible. Investing in their kids education or buying healthier an
29、d more expensive foods may be within reach now, but without the cash handout, these goals werent even a possibility. So families cut back on other expenses (like alcohol and tobacco) to make those dreams a reality. Another theory is that people just generally seem to do what theyre told.If they are
30、given money and told to use it for their familys welfare, in most cases, they will do just that.And that leads to the third theory: These cash transfers are usually given to women, and studies show that when women control the purse strings, more money is spent on taking care of their children. Whate
31、ver the reason for the trend, the data is clearfamilies that receive cash handouts dont waste the money on booze and cigarettes as was previously thought. Instead, they typically use that money for the benefit of their families. And thats money well spent.1.The study proves that .A.cash transfers he
32、lp poor families get what would seem unavailable otherwiseB.cash should be given to poor people as a reward for something good for kidsC.given cash handouts, poor people would spend the money on alcohol and tobaccoD.poor people would save the cash given by the government for emergency needs2.A cash transfer led to a reduction in a familys alcohol and tobacco purchases because
