We always knew our daughter Kendall was going be a singer. She _36_ shows in our neighborhood when she was only three or four. She sang like a little angel and impressed everyone.

When Kendall was five, we began to notice that she was always clearing her throat frequently. We took her to our local Children's _37_ where she was diagnosed with Tourette’s Syndrome(图雷特综合症：一种多发性抽动综合症).

It was pretty bad because other children always made fun of her, and sadly, even a teacher _38_ her. She only had one or two friends, but that was okay because they were _39_ ones. We took our daughter from doctor to doctor. In 2005 when Kendall was sixteen, we thought she becoming better. However, a terrible accident _40_.

I was waving goodbye to my son, the last one of my children to leave home and go to a new place- university. I felt so lighthearted after spending many years looking after my four children-cooking, washing, ironing, teaching them how to look after themselves and manage many other things-that I actually thought “At last, I was free\

But, as I watched my last one leave, although it was joyful, I realized I had not really prepared for this day, I was too busy bringing up these adults of the future to realize that they would all leave the nest and live independently.

At first I didn't know what I wanted to do. I tried a part-time job, which ended in me running out in tears. I started a business, but that didn't work either. I grew my own vegetables and fruit, which lasted 3 years, until I was advised by my doctor that it was not fit for me to do this because of the pain of my feet.

I began wondering if I had a future of my own. I cried for the life I was used to, and hadn't known or wanted anything different.

Then one day I saw an advertisement for foster(代养的) parents, I discussed it with my husband who was always behind everything I tried and I rang up the number. A week later, a girl named Tracy became a member of my family.

I now laugh and sing with my 14-year-old foster daughter, even when my kitchen is a mess and my bathroom is totally out of order. I now know, 8 years later, the meaning of my doing all this with the spare hours, days, and weeks when my last child flew away from the nest. The sun shines once again in my home.

A. Successful B. Supportive C. Warm-hearted D. Open-minded

A. children must go off to college B. a fostered child needs a home C. keeping children is no easy thing D. the mother enjoys her busy life

For parents the only time when they talk with their children is that they get together and eat meals. But this traditional custom of family life appears to be in danger. More and more young people play with their smart phones as they sit around the table. They seldom talk to their family members.

According to a research from Halifax, nearly a fifth of the people in Britain aged between 16 and 34 spend family dinner time checking their mobile phones. While only 1% of those aged over 55 watch their smartphones during family dinners. To researchers’ surprise, more than a quarter of these young people also use smartphones to communicate with their families while they’re in the same house.

Martyn Foulds, a researcher, said, “Those who are over 55 want to keep pace with technology. They can learn a lot from the younger generation(一代人) about the latest smartphones, and the young should also learn the life experience from their older generations.”

Another study found that 24% of 13 to 17 in the US couldn’t live without their smartphones. The study was carried out on 1,060 American teenagers, but the situation may be worse in the UK, because more young people in Britain own smartphones. Although smartphones have made our life easy and colorful, we shouldn’t rely(依赖) too much on them. ( )51. What do more and more young people do while they’re having dinner?
