“Racism (種族歧視) is a grown-up disease,” declares the saying on Ruby Bridge’s website along with a photo of Mrs. Bridge today, a 6-year-old girl four decades ago. In the photo, she is walking up the steps of the William Frantz Public School in New Orleans, a little black girl accompanied by two officers who protect her on her way to school.
Her name then was Ruby Nell. It was Nov. 14, 1960. She was the first black child to enroll at this all-white elementary school according to the court order to desegregate in New Orleans schools. Her story is moving -- she was a very courageous child -- and remains a significant proof against intolerance (不寬容) of all kinds. Ruby’s photo brings out another powerful image on her website: Norman Rockwells symbolic painting for Look magazine on Jan. 14, 1964, “The Problem We All Live With.”
Rockwell was an illustrator of exceptional skill and charm. He produced a vast number of unforgettable images over a long career, many of them involving children. His American kids are innocent and appealing, but often, at the same time, decidedly naughty. His method was to photograph his models, and the resulting paintings were photographic. But it is revealing to see how the artist slightly changed facial expressions from photo to oil painting in order to make his paintings communicate with the viewer. Communication, even persuasion, lay at the back of his work; this was art for effect.
“The Problem We All Live With” belongs to Rockwell’s later work, when he began openly showing his strong belief in liberty. This is a highly persuasive image. Before he arrived at the final copy, one sketch (草圖) shows the little girl closer to the two officers following her than to those in front. In the finished picture, the girl seems more determined, independent, and untouched. The unfriendly tomatoes thrown on the wall are behind her now, and she, is completely unaffected.
Ruby Nell was protected by officers on her way to school, because .
A.she was a little fighter against racism
B.she was very young, short and timid
C.she was the first black to study in an all-white school
D.she was chosen by the com t0be’wi’th white children
According to the passage, “The Problem We All Live With” is a(n) .
A.social program for American children
B.famous painting by Norman Rockwell
C.photo displayed on Ruby Bridges’ website
D.exhibition at the Norman Rockwell Museum
The word “desegregate” in paragraph 2 probably means“ ”.
A.fight against the white B.end racial separation
C.struggle for freedom D.stop the black-white conflict
The main topic of this passage is .
A.how Rockwell encouraged Ruby to fight against racism
B.how Ruby won her fight to go to an all-white school

Cellphones: is there a cancer link?
Could your cellphone give you cancer? Whether it could or not, some people are worrying about the possibility that phones, power lines and wi-fi could be responsible for a range of illnesses, from rashes to brain tumors.
Some say there is evidence to support the growing anxieties. David Carpenter, a professor of environmental health sciences at the university at Albany, in New York, thinks there’s a greater than 95 percent chance that power lines can cause childhood leukemia(白血病). Also there’s a greater than 90 percent chance that cellphones can cause brain tumors. “It’s apparent now that there’s a real risk,” said Carpenter.
But others believe these concerns are unjustified. Dr Martha Linet, the head of radiation epidemiology(流行病學(xué)) at the US National Cancer Institute, has looked at the same research as Carpenter but has reached a different conclusion. “I don’t support warning labels for cellphones,” said Linet. “We don’t have the evidence that there’s much danger.”
Studies so far suggest a weak connection between EMFs(電磁場) and illness — so weak that it might not exist at all. A multinational investigation of cellphones and brain cancer, in 13 countries outside the US, has been underway for several years. It’s funded in part by the European Union, in part by a cellphone industry group. The final report should come out later this year, but data so far don’t suggest a strong link between cellphone use and cancer risk.
【小題1】From the passage we can learn that some people are worried because .
A.they have evidence the use of cellphone can lead to cancer. |
B.they make a fuss over cellphone use. |
C.some expert has given a warning. |
D.cellphones are responsible for brain tumors. |
A.the worrying is unnecessary. |
B.cancer-warning labels should be on cellphones. |
C.there is a link between cellphones and cancer. |
D.cellphones have nothing to do with cancer. |
A.started. | B.kept on. | C.gone on. | D.in progress. |
A.Optimistic. | B.Objective. | C.Disapproving. | D.Casual. |
