Tom saw an advertisement in a newspaper for a beautiful bicycle. It cost 55 pounds. So he went to the shop and asked to see one of the wonderful bicycles.
The owner of the shop was harpy to show one to Tom. Tom examined(检查)it carefully, and turned to the owner and said, "There isn't a lamp on this bicycle. hut there was one on the bicycle in your advertisement."
"Yes, Sir, "answered the man." But the lamp isn't included(包含)in the price of bicycle."
"Not included in the price of bicycle?" Tom said angrily. "But that's not honest. If the lamp is in the advertisement, it should be included in the price.”“Well, Sir,” answered the shop owner coldly. "There is also a girl on the bicycle in the advertisement. but we cannot give you a girl with the bicycle, either."

      I am my mother's third girl. When I was born, the doctor gently explained to my mother that my left arm was missing, below the elbow(肘). Then he gave her some advice, “Don't treat her any differently from the other girls.” And she did!
     There were five girls in our family and we all had to help out. Once when I was about seven, I came out of the kitchen, “Mum, I can't peel(削……皮)potatoes. I only have one hand.” “You get back to peel those potatoes, and don't ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”
     Of course I could peel potatoes—with my good hand and my other arm. “Jenny, if you try hard enough,” she said, “you can do anything.”
     Once in the second grade, our teacher had each of us race across the monkey bar(攀爬架).When it was my turn, I said no, Some kids laughed. I went home crying.
       The next afternoon Mum took me back to the school playground. “Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She praised me when I made progress. I'll never forget when I was crossing the bar, the kids were standing there with their mouths open.
It was the way with everything. Mum had the courage to face anything. And she taught me I could, too.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith live in a quiet village. Last weekend, they went to a busy city for vacation. Mrs. Smith was very excited, because she was a housewife.

She stayed at home every day. It was boring.

After they got to the city, they would like to go to the movies first and then have lunch at a restaurant. At night, they would stay at a five-star hotel.

"Wow! The plan is so great. I like it!" Mrs. Smith said. Then they went to the movies. After seeing an exciting action movie, it was time for dinner. They went into a restaurant and had a lot of delicious food there.

"It is a nice place!" said Mr. Smith. Then he put his hands into his pocket to get the wallet. But he found it was missing.

That night, everything changed. They didn't spend a romantic time at the hotel. Instead, they had to go to the police station for help.

补全短文。根据短文内容，从短文后的A～ F选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文。

The human spine（脊柱） doesn't just help us stand up straight. Inside the spine is the spinal cord (脊髓) {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The legs and feet send "sense" information to the brain, saying they're hurt or hot, for example. And the brain sends messages to the lower body, telling the legs to walk, dance or sit down.

When someone's spinal cord is hurt, information about senses doesn't reach the brain from the lower body. And control messages can't make it to the lower body from the brain. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Surprisingly, now scientists in Switzerland have given three paralyzed men the ability to walk again. All of the three men had damaged their spinal cords in motorcycle accidents and couldn't move their legs. To help them walk again, a special device (装置) was put directly on the lower part of their spinal cord.

The scientists controlled the device from a computer. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} In the past, scientists have had some successes with the similar device in the lower spine. Some patients have even trained themselves over months to be able to walk.

But this research is different. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Instead, the computer tells the device to send "walking" messages. The scientists use computers to create patterns of movement—like taking a step—that work well with each patient. The patients then choose the pattern they want, and the muscles (肌肉) move in the chosen way.

Over time, the three men are able to walk on their own, using a special walker with buttons to trigger (激发) each leg. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} The scientists are hopeful that in the future, this technology will allow more paralyzed people to walk again.

A. When that happens, a person is paralyzed (瘫痪的).

B. The patients' brains aren't sending "walking" messages to their legs.

C. The solution isn't perfect and the patients can't walk without the system.

D. One of them has walked for half a kilometer on his own with the walker.

E. It carries important information between the head and the lower part of the body.

F. Just hours after the device was first used, all the three men were taking steps, with support.
