In October 2013, Davion Only made an appeal on the Internet. He had learned that his

biological mother had died not long before. ”My name is Davion and I've been in foster care

(寄养照管) since I was born," he said, “but I'm not giving up hope. "

The heartbreaking appeal spread quickly, and Only's foster agency received calls from

more than 10,000 people. Only ended up travelling to Ohio to live with a family. But after

Only got into a physical fight with one of his elder would-be brothers, the family changed

their minds.

Back in Florida, Only passed through four different temporary homes over the following

year, until he called Connie Going, his adoption case worker, to make a special request. Only

had known Going for nearly ten years, and had asked every year if she would adopt him, but

she always hesitated. “I always believed there was a better family than us out there," Going

said in an interview. But last July, when Only called and asked again if she might adopt him,

Going said something felt different. "When he asked me, my heart felt this ache and I just

knew he was my son," she said.

So Going, 52, invited Only to start spending time with the rest of her family-her two

daughters, Sydney, 21, and Carly 17, and a son Taylor, 14, who she also adopted out of

foster care. Eventually, after seeing how well the arrangement was working, Going, who had

rented a bigger home, started adopting Only. Only moved in with her family last December.

He officially joined Going's family on April 22, 2015 when the adoption papers went through.

"Today, I feel blessed and honored to have been chosen to be the parent of all my children,"

Going said.

24. By making the appeal, Davion Only hoped that .

A. service in his foster agency would improve

B. his biological mother would come to him

C. a foster agency would accept him

D. he would be adopted by a family

25. Davion Only didn't live with the family in Ohio because .

A. he hated living with them

B. they finally refused to accept him

C. he has received another invitation

D. he often fought with his would-be brothers

26. What do we know from Paragraph 3?

A. Davion Only had fun living in different homes.

B. Connie Going had cared about Davion Only for over ten years.

C. Davion Only had a strong desire to be adopted by Connie Going.

D. Connie Going believed she would give Davion Only what he wanted.

27. After Davion Only joined Connie Going's family, .

A. Connie Going bought a bigger house

B. the four kids often had physical fights

Do you drink water that's been left sitting out overnight or even for another day? Have

you noticed it tastes different?

Tap water that has been left to sit out slowly begins to acquire an off taste. Many people

think that this is because of microorganisms(微生物). But that's not what makes old water

taste not fresh. For that we can thank carbon dioxide. After about 12 hours, tap water starts

to go flat as carbon dioxide in the air starts to mix with the water in the glass, lowering its pH

and giving it an off taste. But it's most likely safe to drink.

However, back to those microorganisms. If you use a dirty glass day after day, there is

more of a chance of bacteria making themselves known; a risk that increases if you share the

glass with another mouth as well. But assuming you use a fresh glass every few days, you

probably won't have a problem unless the glass has been touched by dirty fingers, and

especially if those dirty fingers went unwashed after using the bathroom.

As for plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car, step away

from the bottle, warns Dr. Kellogg Schwab, director of the Johns Hopkins University Water

Institute. "A chemical called bisphenol-A, or BPA, along with other things used to make

plastic can leach(过滤) into your water if the bottle heats up or sits in the sun," he explains.

BPA, as you probably know, has been
