I believe what my grandmther taught me: “Nthing bad happens withut smething gd cming f it.”
Fr years I didn’t 11 this saying at all. Being ptimistic(乐观的), I thught f it as a “When ne dr clses anther pens” kind f thing. Only recently, after a lng perid f 12 times, I really understand the true meaning f my grandmther’s saying.
The first difficult wave(海浪) came when my first child was brn with a heart disease, requiring an pen-heart 13 when she was nly seven mnths ld. Anther was needed when she was tw.

The gd that cmes, is ur ability t 20 and adapt(适应). In the remains left by unlucky things, I’ve learned new skills t deal with my rebuilt wrld. Over time I am better able t 21 the punding f the waves, and even learn t enjy the beauty f the surf.
I wuld be lying if I didn’t say we’ve gt enugh 22 , and that I dn’t hpe fr quiet waves. But I knw that thrugh it all, my abilities will grw and the gd will cme.

C.Treasure Island
The next mrning, there was n wind and we were half a mile t the sutheast f the lw eastern cast. I hated the very thught f Treasure Island frm the first lk nward, althugh the sun shne bright and ht and anyne wuld have been glad t get t land after being s lng at sea.
Withut wind, we had t use small bats t pull the ship three r fur miles rund the island t a safe place t drp the anchr(锚).
The men all cmplained abut it while the heat was building up. Afterwards, they sat arund the deck(甲板) and the smallest rder was received with an angry lk.
“If I give anther rder,” said the captain(船长), “the whle crew(全体船员) will mutiny. Only Silver can help us. He wants the men t wait. Let’s allw them an afternn n shre(海滨).”
Guns were given t all the hnest men. Hunter, Jyce, and Redruth were tld what was happening, and were less surprised. Then the captain went n deck t address(对……说话) the crew.
“Men, yu’ve had a ht, tiring day,” he said. “The bats are still in the water. Any man wh wants t g ashre fr the afternn can take the bats. Yu’ll hear a gun half an hur befre the sundwn t call yu back.”
They all became happier at nce. I think they thught they wuld find the treasure lying arund n the beach! After sme talk, six men stayed n bard, and the ther thirteen, including Silver, went ashre.
The mad idea ccurred(发生) t me t g ashre that helped t save ur lives. Six men were left by Silver, s we culd nt take cntrl f the ship and because nly six were left, the captain’s men did nt need my help. S I quickly went ver the ship’s side and int the nearest bat.
N ne tk much ntice f me, nly ne man saying, “is that yu, Jim?” But Silver called frm the ther bat, wanting t knw if it was me. Then I began t regret what I had dne.

It’s impssible fr my children t read this, which is lucky fr me, because it wuld give them supprt fr the argument(争论) “Can we get a dg r a cat?” Because the research suggests that having ne is gd fr children.
A study published in JAMA Pediatrics shws that children wh had a dg in their first year f life were 13% less likely t develp asthma(哮喘) by the time they were six than thse frm dg-free families. It is believed that children are mre likely t develp allergies(过敏) if they grw up in super-clean envirnments. This study shws ther reasns that increase the risk f asthma, but can still shw nly an assciatin(联系).
It is reprted that 46% f families in the UK have pets, with dgs and then cats the mst cmmn animals. The evidence(证据) which shws the advantages f having cats is nt always the same, but sme research still shws that pets make children healthier. A study f 397 Finnish babies in 2012 fund that, during their first year f life, thse whse parents had dgs r cats had fewer clds than thse frm hmes withut pets. Dgs ffered mre prtectin than cats. The researchers think this is because they brught in mre dirt frm utside t cause the babies’ immune systems(免疫系统) t wrk well.
The research als shws that having a pet may make children feel mre ppular and be mre understanding. Older studies fund that pets make family members spend mre time tgether and have mre “entertainment” they ffered as well.
Pets can als help children t learn abut respnsibility(责任), brush the fur, clean the place they sleep, feed them, take mre exercise (if yu get a dg) and deal with lss — wh can frget when their family pet gt a car accident?
In a wrd, keeping pets is really gd fr imprving children’s health and their qualities. Hwever, I still wn’t allw my children t keep a pet at hme. After all, bth dgs and cats pp(大使) at hme, and they can carry wrms r ther parasites. Als, it seems that few children lk after the animals they repeatedly asked their parents fr.
33.Accrding t sme research, having a pet makes children healthier because ______.
A.they aren’t likely t develp asthmaB.they live in a super-clean envirnment
C.pets can prtect them frm dangerD.dirt makes them guard against the disease better
34.What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A.There is n gd reasn fr having pets.B.Having pets has its disadvantages.
C.Children share the care f pets with parents.D.Pets may bring diseases t children.
35.What des the passage mainly talk abut?
A.Why can pets make yur children healthier?B.Will having a pet make yur children healthier?

36.What best shws the structure(结构) f the passage?
A.B.C.D.
