18.Editor Henry Slocum,
     I read your May 10th article in the local newspaper Honesdale Times about electronic books,or e-books,with great interest.You made several good points about the disadvantages of e-books.You may have overlooked,however,some of the ways in which they are superior to traditional books.Yes,e-books are expensive,but they are also convenient.In addition,due to their environment-friendly nature,e-books have the potential to change our planet for the better.
     E-books,for anyone who is unfamiliar with the term,are about the same size and shape as regular books.They have a large screen in the middle,however.This screen shows the reader a page of text that has been downloaded from a computer.Once the reader has finished reading the page on the e-book screen,he or she scrolls down to see a new page.The process continues until the entire book has been read.
     As you pointed out,Mr.Slocum,it's great to lie on a warm,sandy beach with a book.You can do that just as easily with an e-book as you can with a traditional paper book.In fact,because e-books are so light,you can carry them anywhere.Say,for example,that you like to read on the bus.Which would you rather carry with you-a heavy 800-page novel,or an e-book that weighs only a few ounces?
    Another important advantage is offered by e-books as well.They are more environment friendly than traditional books.At present,thousands of trees are cut down each year to meet the publishing industry's demand for paper.Books that don't sell are eventually returned to the publisher and destroyed.This terrible waste could be avoided if everyone used e-books,which require no paper.
Sincerely,
David Eng41.What does Editor Henry Slocum think about e-books?B

13.A sense of humor is just one of the many things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo,64-year-old twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2012.On Christmas Eve,2002,Anthony had a heart transplant (移植) from a 21-year-old donor (捐贈(zèng)者).Two days before Valentine's Day in 2012,Afred received a 19-year-old heart,marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants.
"I'm 15minutes older than him.But now I'm younger because of my heart and I'm not going to respect him,"Afred said with a smile,pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters,who laughed frequently at their jokes.
While the twins knew that genetics (遺傳學(xué)) might have played a role in their condition,they recognized that their bad eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems."We'd put half a pound of butter on a steak.I overdid it on all the food that tasted good,so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly."
The discussion moved to Anthony's recovery.In the five years since his heart transplant,he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles,swam each day,and walked a couple of miles.He was still on medication (藥物治療) but not nearly as much as Alfred,who was just in the early stage of his recovery.
Alfred said his goal,of course,was to feel even better than his brother."But",he added,"I love my brother very much.We're very close and I'm sure we'll do just fine."

56.What is this passage about?(no more than 10words)Itisaboutthetwinbrotherswhoreceivedhearttransplants/receivinghearttransplants.
57.What did Alfred and Anthony have in common in character according to paragraph 1?(no more than 7words)Theybothhadasenseofhumor./Theywerebothhumorous.
58.Why did Alfred say he was younger than Anthony?(no more than 8words)Becausehisnewheartwasyounger(thanAnthony's).

As far as I'm concerned,we should increase the students'awareness of safety.Teachers and parents should warn children of the danger of swimming without adults'company.Especially as summer is approaching,chilren are supposed to be organized to participate in a variety of activities.What's more,all of us teenagers should always keep safety in mind wherever we are.(提出建議).
