These days, Americans worry most about an economic recovery that President Obama calls "painfully slow". But on Saturday millions will remember the day al-Qaida terrorists flew airplanes into the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington. Another hijacked plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania when passengers rebelled. Close to three thousand people died that day. Next year will be a big anniversary, ten years since the day Americans call 9-11.

       But this September eleventh comes at an uneasy time. A large number of Americans say they oppose plans to build an Islamic center near the World Trade Center site in New York. This week attention centered on a Christian minister(基督教事工) with a small following in the state of Florida.

       Reverend Terry Jones said he would mark the 9-11 anniversary by burning copies of the Quran(可蘭經(jīng)). He said he wanted to send a message to Islamic extremists. He said, "We are not hateful toward Muslims. We are not aiming this at Muslims, we are aiming this at Sharia law(伊斯蘭教教法)."

       Political and religious leaders around the world had condemned him. The plan even led the State Department to warn American travelers to avoid places where protests(抗議) might take place.

       President Obama said burning Qurans could endanger American troops and invite more extremism. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called Mr. Jones on Thursday to urge him to reconsider.

Administration officials called the idea of burning Qurans "un-American." But they also agreed that it would be within constitutional rights, like protesters who burn American flags. The Constitution guarantees free speech and bars the government from restricting the practice of religion.

I clearly remember my mom telling me to drink milk every day—one glass in the morning and another at night. I also remember loving it while my sister thought quite the opposite—she would surreptitiously pour her milk into the sink or water the plants with it! I guess I should thank my mom for making us drink a lot of milk, so rich in calcium(鈣), during those important years.

   Today, calcium shortage is one of the main concerns of women in their 30s or even early 20s. The great fear is that when we reach our 50s or 60s, osteoprosis(骨質(zhì)疏松癥)will set in. That is why you can see a lot of advertisements for products supposedly containing a lot of calcium.

   Because calcium is not that easy to acquire from the food we normally eat, busy women these days should take calcium supplements(補充物). There are a lot of different forms of these---calcium carbonate(碳酸鈣)，oyster(牡蠣)shell or bone-meal-based calcium supplements.

   You have to be careful when choosing which kind to take. This is because calcium is not easily absorbed by the body. So the fact that you are taking supplements doesn’t mean that the body is actually benefiting from them. Different supplements may have different instructions on dosage(劑量)and manner of intake. You can ask your doctor to help you determine which supplement is the best for your needs.

From what the author’s mother did we may infer that___________________.

A. her children had osteoporosis

B. she knew her children would benefit from milk

C. she must have suffered from osteorosis

D. she didn’t like her daughter who didn’t obey her order

Based on the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

   A. The author’s sister will suffer from osteoprosis when reaches her 50s or 60s

   B. Many businessmen have already been selling products supposedly containing calcium.

   C. We can’t get enough calcium only from food we eat every day

   D. Women as young as their 20s should be concerned about calcium shortage

What does the underlined word “surreptitiously” in the first paragraph probably mean?

   A. Honestly           B. Frankly           C. Secretly          D. Curiously                                

We may infer from the last paragraph that____________________.

   A. what one chooses as a calcium supplement might not work

   B. one shouldn’t take in calcium without the permission of a doctor

   C. the more calcium supplements one uses, the more calcium one can take in

   D. it is dangerous to use calcium supplements without the guidance
