It's certain:for twins,life really does imitate art.My twin brother,Kirk,and I grew up being constantly mistaken for each （處理這個問題） other.Classmates,friends,teachers,even relatives couldn't tell us apart. As a result,we were often unfairly punished or rewarded.

Eventually,we learned how to use the Mistaken Identity Syndrome (MIS) to our advantage.For example,we would play tricks on our friends and classmates,pretending to be the other twin.Nor were teachers immune(不受某事物影響) to our tricks.On at least one occasion,when Kirk was sick,I covered for (替代) him by taking his tests.We also tried our little game out on Mom,but she always knew who was who.Once we grew up，we even covered for each other at work.We didn't mean any harm;we simply started this as an experiment to see whether our bosses and co-workers could tell the difference.

As a bank manager, I meet with dozens of clients(顧客) on a daily basis, while my brother manages a staffing service for local employers. As a result, Kirk is constantly approached by people who want to discuss their various money accounts, while I'm frequently thanked on the street as a department store customer service representative.

 However, the MIS took a truly embarrassing turn when Kirk and I found ourselves unable to tell each other apart. Once, my brother and I were traveling in a car with several friends. My brother's hair must always be in place. Kirk was driving when he noticed in the rearview mirror (后視鏡) that his hair was a bit messy.

  He lifted his right hand to brush his hair back into place and was disturbed when his hand didn't appear in the mirror. Several times he repeated this action. Finally, he started laughing.

According to the first paragraph, we know that         .

    A. few people can tell the author from Kirk

    B. the author was punished more than Kirk

    C. the author was always rewarded though he was wrong

    D. being twins is really a good thing for both twins

According to the passage, the Mistaken Identity Syndrome is         .

    A. a kind of disease difficult to cure

    B. the situation of mistaking identities

    C. the tricks that children like to play

It can be inferred that when the author covers for his brother at work，         .

    A. he is often successful

    B. he means to harm his boss

    C. his brother is seriously ill

    D. he often behaves strangely

Why did Kirk laugh at last?

    A. He felt embarrassed about his hair.

    B. His brother's hair was really messy.

    C. His brother was doing the same thing.

    D. He became the victim of the MIS.

UNICEF is appealing for more than one billion dollars in aid for women and children around the world．The United Nations Children's Fund has released its " Humanitarian Action Report" for two thousand ten． The report lists twenty -eight countries and territories with some of the world's most pressing crisis affecting women and children．

Haiti was considered to be in crisis long before the earthquake in January．The deputy executive director of UNICEF, Hilde Johnson, says the quake has only made the need for aid more immediate．But she says children all over the world have the right to the same assistance as children everywhere else．

The "Humanitarian Action Report" discusses several issues that UNICEF says increasingly threaten the basic rights of women and children．It says climate change has caused droughts and' food insecurity in many areas．High food prices and the global financial crisis of two thousand eight - two thousand nine have only added to poverty and malnutrition （ 營養(yǎng)不良）．And armed conflict continues to threaten the lives of millions．

Hilde Johnson says children are always the most affected by conflicts and disasters．They face an increased risk of abuse, including sexual violence and other serious rights violations （侵犯）．

UNICEF deals with about two hundred emergencies around the world every year．The greatest need last year was in sub - Saharan Africa．The report says drought, food insecurity and civil unrest affected about twenty - four million people．

Violence and displacements（ 驅(qū)逐）of people were especially bad in Sudan, Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Central African Republic．

In Asia, UNICEF expects its financial assistance needs to more than double this year．This is partly the result of adding Pakistan and the Philippines to the latest report．In Pakistan, it says, more than two million people have been forced from their homes by the conflict in the．Swat Valley and other areas of the northwest．And in the Philippines, more than two hundred thousand people are still living in shelters after severe storms last year．

This years UNICEF report talks about the value of public and private partnerships in helping children and families in emergencies．
