The five-bedroom house provides 24-hour care for up to four individuals with complex needs, including medical support. Care and staffing levels are varied and flexible, depending on each residents requirements.Scott and Daniel, who have a severe form of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, require 24-hour support in all activities of daily living. Before they moved to the house, they lived with their family. Scott says living at home was difficult as it placed a physical and emotional strain (负担) on their parents who had to wake them several times each night to reposition them or place them on breathing machines.“We were heavyhearted,” says Scott, who is planning to write a book about his life experiences. “But our parents now have a lot more time for themselves. We now manage ourselves on a day-to-day basis.”Daniel is an enthusiastic gardener, taking care of his own vegetable garden. The men share the house with one other young man, and they go to rugby league games, meeting up with friends.Leeding Care Australia provides the care service at Kurwongbah.

Balancing these two requirements has been a challenge for all.”“We have experienced a bit of a learning phase over the last twelve months.

Satisfying both staff and residents needs.CScientific experiments have shown again and again that octopuses (章鱼) are pretty smart. They learn quickly, can solve puzzles and remember solutions.But the big question is why? There are several reasons why octopus intelligence is a mystery to many biologists. Firstly, biologists believe that intelligent animals such as chimpanzees (黑猩猩) and dolphins develop large complex brains because they live in complex social groups and need to understand each other. Octopuses live alone. Secondly, other intelligent animals have long childhoods when they can learn from their parents. Such animals also generally live for quite a long time, so having a big brain is a good investment. Baby octopuses lose touch with their parents almost immediately after birth and then they only live for six months to a year. Why does this animal need such a large brain? Finally, octopuses are cousins to snails, oysters and mussels quite primitive (原始的) animals, which appeared on Earth millions of years before mammals did. Generally, biologists believe that intelligence increases as you go higher up the tree of evolution (进化). With their big brains, octopuses dont seem to fit this theory at all. They almost seem to be aliens, a strange mystery of the animal world. Its easy to understand why in Hawaiian folklore, people thought that the octopus was actually the last survivor of a lost universe.One theory suggests that octopuses and humans perhaps have a lot in common. Like early humans, octopuses are physically much weaker than theirpredators. They have soft, naked (裸露的) bodies and they cant swim as fast as many fish and sharks which hunt them. This is why octopuses spend much of their time hiding between rocks or in holes, just as humans learned to make their homes in caves. Octopuses have also learned some very effective techniques for hunting for food and this means that an octopus spends very little of its time (on average just seven percent) looking for food. But what do they think about as they hide away in their holes? Perhaps the cruel turns of evolution, which have left them with large, playful brains but living alone in the dark at the bottom of the ocean .29. Which of the following about octopuses has been confirmed?A. They have a poor memory.B. They prefer living in groups.C. They usually have a short life.D. They learn a lot from their parents.30. Why are octopuses like aliens?A. They come from a different universe.B. They have a very strange appearance.C. They are the most intelligent creatures under the sea.D. They dont clearly belong in the pattern of evolution.31. What does the underlined word “predators” in the last paragraph probably refer to?A. Cousins. B. Enemies.C. Partners. D. Parents.DThe word or phrase that you use to open your email account may provide a key to your personality as well as to your correspondence (信件), according to a British psychologist. Helen Petrie, professor of human/computer interaction (交互作用) at City, University in London, analysed the responses of 1,200 Britons who participated in a survey funded (提供资金) by CentralNic, an Internet domain name company. The results were recently published on CentralNic s website. Petrie identifies three main password “types”. “Family oriented” respondents numbered nearly half of those surveyed. These people use their own name or nickname, the name of a child, partner, or pet or a birth date as their password. They tend to be occasional computer users and have strong family ties. “They choose passwords that symbolize people or events with emotional value,” says Petrie. One third of respondents were “fans”, using the names of athletes, singers, movie stars, fictional characters, or sports teams. Petrie says fans are young and want to attach themselves to the lifestyle represented by a celebrity. Two of the most popular names were Madonna and Homer Simpson. The third main group of participants are “cryptics” because they pick confusing passwords or a random (随机的) string of letters, numbers, and symbols such as “Jxa+157”. Petrie says cryptics are the most security-conscious group. They tend to make the safest but least interesting choices.Passwords are revealing for two reasons. First, because they are invented on the spot. “Since you are focused on getting into a system, for example your email account, you re likely to write down something that comes quickly to mind,” says Petrie. “In this sense passwords take advantage of things that are just below the surface of consciousness. Also, to remember your password, you pick something that will stick in your mind. You may unconsciously choose something of particular emotional importance.”32. How did Petrie draw her conclusions?A. By observing participants reactions.B. By interviewing 1,200 people.C. By studying survey results.D. By doing an experiment.33. What do we know about people whose passwords are “family oriented”? A. They probably have large families.B. They are likely to be animal lovers.C. They tend to be social and emotional.D. They are probably infrequent computer users.34. What does Petrie say about the “cryptic” group?A. They have strong safety awareness.B. They lack imagination and creativity.C. They change their passwords regularly.D. They cant think of an interesting password.35. Why can passwords reveal our personalities?A. We choose words we will easily remember.B. We are willing to invent something personal.C. We are likely to value important experiences.D. We pick up a password after careful consideration.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Want to volunteer?How do you pick the right volunteer experience for you? Ask yourself the following questions to determine which experience best fits your goals.What cause is important to you?Identify your greatest passions (酷爱). What is a problem you want to solve? Who are people you want to connect with?36. If you dont have answers to those questions, dont worry. Thats where you just have to try and learn more about the cause, and see if it attracts you.37?The nonprofit (非盈利的) sector grows quickly. Understanding the organizational structure is important for a positive volunteer experience. Would you like to work in a larger organization that might have more resources but is more rigid (严格的)? Or a smaller organization that has less financial support but many opportunities to serve?You also need to consider the leadership structure. Are they friendly, open, willing to give you opportunities? Do you see yourself enjoying your day working with them? If you answer yes, then most likely you will have a positive relationship. They will want to see you grow and develop, and you will want to help them.38.How much time can you put?39. Often, volunteers comment that they benefit from giving a lot of their time and becoming a part of the “nonprofit family.”However, you may only have time to help on weekends every now and then. Thats great, too.40.Youve got a heart to give. Now, take the time to think about how you want to volunteer. By being thoughtful, youll use your time well and get the most out of your experience.A. What is the organization likeB. Its a “win-win” for everyoneC. Its just a different kind of experienceD. Sometimes you know, and sometimes you dontE. What companies are there in your neighborhoodF.
