     ●Sunscreen（防曬霜）：You might not think about getting sunburn，but it happens to skiers and snowboarders every day．
     ●Difficulty levels：It's important to know what level you're at before jumping on a ski lift and heading up the mountain．Use a free trail map and plan the slopes you're going to skid own ahead of time based on the following levels you'll find up the mountain：
     ●Green Circle：These are the easiest slopes．

• 2．There are only 11 documented cases of congenital aglossia（先天性無(wú)舌）in the world．Despite being born without a tongue，I can speak and swallow and taste just like anyone else．I was born in 1969，in the days before ultrasound scans（超聲波檢查）．Everything was normal and there was nothing to suggest that I'd be different．But when I was born，Mum found that there was something wrong with my mouth．The doctor saw the base of my tongue and told her，"Oh，she just has a small tongue．She'll be fine．"
     Later，doctors told my parents I wouldn't be able to talk or that my speech would be very limited．I'm sure that was hard for them to hear．But they were only 22 and I'm not sure how seriously they took it．I was their first and only child，and the best thing they ever did was treat me as if there was nothing wrong．Mum told me when I was older that she came home from a doctor's appointment and cried，because she worried I wouldn't have a normal life or be happy．
     I also have a small jaw（下巴）．It's related，because there is no tongue to fill out the space．People are able to see that，rather than the fact that I don't have a tongue．I went to see a plastic surgeon（整形醫(yī)生）when I was 10，who suggested making a false tongue．But I was more interested in having my jaw filled out．But when I was 18 the surgeon said he advised me not to do that in case it affected my speech．I thought，"I don't care．I just want to be pretty，" but it was the right decision．
     I'm able to taste the full range of flavors．I can eat everything．I've never had any anger about being born this way．Over the years，I've learned to get used to it，which hasn't always been easy．I'd love to think I offer hope to others in this situation，to parents or children born like me．
  
  （1）According to the passage，the author

  ．
  A．was diagnosed to have no tongue as a newborn baby
  B．has had no sense of taste since she was born
  C．was found different before she was born
  D．has lived a normal life even without a tongue
  （2）What can we learn from the third paragraph？

  
  A．The author's parents love her very much．
  B．The author couldn't accept the truth．
  C．The author's parents planned to have another child．
  D．The author lost the ability to speak．
  （3）Why did the author want to fill out her jaw？

  
  A．She wanted to become beautiful．
  B．She wanted to improve her speech．
  C．She didn't want others to know she had no tongue．
  D．She wanted to make it possible to have a false tongue．
  （4）What is the author's purpose in sharing her experience？

  
  A．To describe what a hard life she has had．
  B．To provide some useful ways to deal with difficulties．
  C．To show that she has a strong heart．
  D．To encourage people like her to face life positively．

• 3．I grew up with easy access to books，and I've always felt that I benefited from it，even if it was as simple as always having something to do．For that reason，I make sure that the children who are a part of my life also have books，often giving them as gifts．
     This desire to surround kids with books isn't just in my head．A recent study has demonstrated that children who grow up with home libraries perform better later in life when it comes to literacy（讀寫能力），applying math skills to everyday life and learning how to use digital technology．Reading is a gift that keeps on giving，apparently．
     The study collected data from 160，000 adults from across 31 countries who participated in the Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies（PIAAC）．The PIAAC measures adults' skills in three categories：literacy，numeracy（計(jì)算能力）and digital literacy．
     Participants in the PIAAC were asked to estimate how many books were in their households by the time they were 16 years old．The average number in the study was 115 books，but the actual numbers would vary from country to country．Turkish participants averaged 27，while those in Norway had 212 and kids in the UK had 143．The study found that the more books that were present in the home，the better the adults scored in the PIAAC evaluations．
     Homes needed to have roughly 80 books to have any impact on the teens，raising PIAAC scores to the average level．Literacy scores in particular improved when more books were available，though they became steady at around 350 books．Numeracy skills improved in similar ways to literacy．Solving problems with digital technologies also saw improvement，but the score gains weren't as steep as they were for literacy or numeracy．
     Access to books also helped to bridge education differences．Those who grew up without many books in the home and received university degrees performed roughly the same as those who had access to large home libraries and only completed nine years of school．
  
  （1）What is the author's attitude towards children reading books？

  
  A．Unconcerned．
  B．Doubtful．
  C．Cautious．
  D．Approving．
  （2）According to the study，

  ．
  A．the only way to raise PIAAC scores is to read books
  B．the purpose of the PLAAC is to measure one's reading，math and technology skills
  C．participants from the UK performed best in the PIAAC
  D．the more kinds of books one reads at home，the higher score one will get in the PIAAC
  （3）What can we infer from the last paragraph？

  
  A．Access to books can help one receive a university degree．
  B．Bookish adolescence can make up for a shorter education．
  C．Those who grew up without many books wouldn't receive a university degree．
  D．People with a basic education performed better than those with a higher level of education．
  （4）Which of the following is the best title for the text？

  
  A．Reading Lots of Books as a Kid Helps Later in Life
  B．Reading Books Helps Improve One's Intelligence
  C．Reading-The Best Way to Improve One's Social Skills
  D．Why Reading Makes One a Better Person
