I imagined celebrating every milestone bonding with her as a newborn, seeing he
9、r smile for the first time, hearing her say her first word. I didnt think of feeding tubes, long hospital stays or an organ transplant (移植).For Evelyn, the first year included all and more. Evelyn came into this world at just 34 weeks, weighing less than 3 pounds. Genetic testing revealed she had Al
10、agille syndrome,a genetic disorder that can damage the liver(肝脏),heart and other organs. Soon, we received the news that baby Evelyn needed a liver transplant. Our family moved nearer to UPMC Childrens Hospital of Pittsburgh so that we were closer if a liver was available for Evelyn. When Evelyn was
11、 added to the organ donation wait list, it was under the liver allocation policy in place at that time, which was map-based. This policy lacks any special consideration for transplant candidates. We were told it would likely take three months. Just then, a new policy for liver allocation was tried o
12、ut. Under the new system, the sickest child patients get first priority(优先). The new policy was only in effect for a little over a week. But in that period, Evelyn received her liver transplant. Had it been just one week earlier or later, we would not have received the call. As Evelyn recovers from
13、her transplant, we are grateful for the change. I am also sad, because the new policy was short-lived. That means another mom like me might not receive that phone call with good news. Other children should have the same opportunity as Evelyn to live healthy, happy lives. When it comes to liver trans
14、plant policy, we can and must do better for children.1. What probably happened to Evelyn shortly after she was born?A. She failed to give a smile. B. She had a serious liver failure.C.

The old policy lacks special consideration for kids.3、As Americans live longer and the job market stays competitive, fast-food
17、chains are increasingly hiring from senior centers, churches and aging advocacy groups like AARP, Bloomberg reports. And its not just death rates and economic trends driving the change. Seniors have more polished social skills, hut teens are stopped from growing up online with fewer real-world conne
18、ctions.“I spend a lot of time with young kids. They can he very disrespectful,” 63-year-old Churchs Chicken manager Stevenson Williams tells Bloomberg of his teen coworkers. “You have to coach them and tell them this is your job, not the street,” Williams says. Having “soft skills” such as politenes
19、s often comes more easily to the seniors, who have had a lifetime of experience in the workforce to learn how to treat customers compared with young people. Employers thus get a more mature worker at no additional cost but the reasons for seniors outpacing teen hires are many. The US Census Bureau r
20、eported this year that, by 2035, there will be more Americans over age 65 than there are children under age 18. Plus, fewer people in their prime (盛年)are workingthanks to the unaffordable childcare that forces many parents to stay at home, according to a study by Princeton University.The US Bureau o
21、f Labor Statistics (BLS) forecasts the number of American workers aged between 65 and 74 will swell 4.5 percent by 2024, while the 16-to-24s will shrink 1.4 percent. By 2024, the BLS projects the labor force will grow to about 164 million people. That number includes about 41 million people aged 55

26、 part of this lost urban network.5、 Hidden under the jungles of the Maya Biosphere Reserve site, more than 60,000 human-made features homes, canals,highways,and more have been identified in aerial (从飞机上的)images collected by some international researchers headed by the PAGUNAM Foundation, a Maya cult
