• 2．Born with a heart defect （缺陷） called dextrocardia.Luna has had three open heart operations and continues to pursue her interests in art and fashion.But when Luna was approached by athletic shoe company Saucony to design a pair of shoes for sale across the country，it came as quite a surprise.
     "This is so incredible.I got to use my art and creativity for something new that I'd never thought I'd be able to design." Luna said.She is one of the six patients from Boston Children's Hospital （BCH） who have partnered Saucony to design their own shoes to launch the Shoes with Soul campaign.

"specifically，we wanted to give some of the BCH kids an opportunity to share their story and their talents with the world."

"she said. "Thinking about kids everywhere around the world wearing my shoes is amazing. It blows my mind."
     The income from the shoe sales will benefit the Boston Children's Hospital Cardiac Fitness Program，which encourages kids to "find your possibility" through personalized exercise programs tailored for each individual patient's heart condition.
     "It feels really good to help people and it's really something I can relate to." says Luna. "The advice I would give a kid or someone like me is 'Never give up'.There are a lot of kids out there with your condition and you're not alone."

• 3．We already know that eating too much salt can lead to heart disease.But could it also affect our mind？Scientific found that a high-salt diet could cause cognitive impairments（认知损伤）in mice，and it could produce the same effect on humans.
     Dr.Costantino Ladecola，director of the Feil Family Brain and Mind Research Institute，said they fed the mice eight to sixteen times their normal salt intake and then tested the mice.After about three months，the mice had a big change in their behaviour.Mice are very curious，and they like to look for new things.However，the tested mice lost the ability to identify a normal object.When the mice were put in their cage and asked to find a quiet spot，they did not remember where the quiet spot was.Then when the mice were building a nest，which is something the mice do daily，they were unable to do so.The research suggested humans would experience a similar response.
     Studies have shown Australians eat around double the recommended amount of salt each day，most of it coming from processed food.Dr.Ladecola said the estimated two teaspoons of salt the average Australian eats each day could affect the brain function in the long term.However，the decline might not be as obvious as in the mice，who were given extremely high levels of salt. "But probably over years and perhaps decades as opposed to a few months for the mice even lower levels of salt may have a terrible effect，" Dr.Ladecola said.
     "High levels of salt cause serious immune （免疫的） changes in the organs in and around the stomach，resulting in an almost autoimmune effect on the brain.It is a part of a growing body of evidence that we really are what we eat，" Bryce Vissel，director of the Centre for Neuroscience at the University of Technology Sydney，said， "Those changes in turn cause all sorts of responses in the body，which over time certainly contribute to cognitive impairments."
  
  （1）Which can describe the tested mice？

  
  A．They remained quiet all day.
  B．They forgot some routine things.
  C．They became smarter than ever.
  D．They were quick at finding objects.
  （2）What do we know about Australians？

  
  A．They ignore health advice.
  B．They dislike processed food.
  C．They have a higher-salt diet.
  D．They value their brain health.
  （3）What does the last paragraph mainly focus on？

  
  A．Studies carried out by Bryce Vissel.
  B．Effects of daily diets on human behaviour.
  C．Immune changes brought about by salt.
  D．Links between salt intake and brain damage.
  （4）What does the text suggest？

  
  A．Brain health counts much.
  B．A low-salt diet is to be advocated.
  C．The body never tells a lie.
  D．Heart disease can be prevented.

      Like many boys，my most favorite sport is basketball. To be honest，I felt clumsy when I first learn to play it. I moved more slowly and I was not as strongly as others. But they didn't give up and spent my spare time practicing. Gradually， I made progresses. I can't forget how exciting I was before winning the first match. That's how I fell in love basketball. Since then， it has become a important part of my life. It strengthens my body but also helps me become confident.
