Meagan and her friend Samantha, both students, lived together in Denver. On mornings when Samantha had class, Meagan would watch her 2-year-old daughter, Hannah. Also part of the household was Meagan’s pet, Willie, a parrot - a particularly intelligent and chatty breed. He picked up quite a healthy vocabulary (“Silly Willie” was a favorite saying) and be-came a great mimic-of cats, dogs, chickens and humans.
One day with Samantha at school, Hannah sat in front of morning cartoons while Meagan cooked Pop-Tarts in the kitchen. When the toaster spat out the food, Meagan placed it at the center of the kitchen table to cool .She glanced at Hannah and, confident the child was fully engaged in the TV, slipped out quickly to use the bathroom.
“I was gone maybe 30 seconds,” Meagan recalls. “And suddenly, I heard the bird going crazy and shouting.” She heard two very distinct words from the parrots mouth. “Mama! Baby! Mama! Baby!” Meagan ran out of the bathroom to find Hannah in the kitchen, holding the partly eaten Pop - Tarts, out of breath, her face and lips a terrifying shade of blue. And Willie was still crying.
“Hannah had climbed up on a chair and gotten the Pop - Tarts and she was clearly choking on
them,” says Meagan. “I seized her and immediately started doing first aid until the piece came flying out.” The bird quieted down and Meagan burst into tears, relief washing over her; Hannah was fine, already smiling her big smile.
When Meagan told Samantha what happened, “She was so grateful, thanking me for what I did,” Meagan says. “But I said, Don’t thank me! It was Willie who was-the hero!”

There are thousands of films and music festivals in and out of Austin, but there is nothing like ATX. Our focus is on the celebration of the medium: looking back at its history, where it is now, and where it is headed. Our weekend consists of screenings and events where participants can hear from actors, writers, directors, involved in all stages of bringing their favourite series to the small screen.
We have the function of a traditional film festival with screenings followed by Q&As from creators, and a series of events including parties, social media events, and “super secret happy hours”. Unlike traditional festivals, however, we celebrate the history of the medium as well as the future. Since we arrange 50% for the biggest television fans and 50% for those working or wanting to work in the industry, our panels（专家小组）range in topics from “behind-the scenes” look at your favourite series, to more technical topics on where the medium and how technology is headed. Eventually, ATX Television Festivals has the goal of serving both the community and industry professionals equally by giving them the opportunity to discus and celebrate all aspects of TV
together.

We love our city and try to be part of our community by showing small businesses, local food, and working with arts organization like Texas Film Commission, and Austin Film Festival -though we are not the “Austin Television Festival”. We are a national event that works with our numbers coming from all over the world.
Cofounders Caitlin McFarland and Emily Gipson have spent a decade in a variety of areas of the entertainment industry -from film & television production to working within the network & studio systems. Combining their knowledge, along with numerous good industry professionals that make up the Advisory Board, they are introducing a festival experience.

Children make quicker decisions to eat “tasty” food and reward centres in their brains light up
after watching food commercials on television, compared to non -food commercials, a small study finds. The researcher studied 23 children aged 8 to 14 who gave taste and health ratings for 60 food items. Afterwards, kids chose whether to “eat” or “not eat” each food item – without actually eating them-while undergoing brain scans. The scans measure changes in
blood flow within the brain, which is thought to reflect the activity of brain cells.
While the kids were making their decisions, they were periodically shown TV commercials, some for fast food outlets and some for non-food business. Each set of commercials was followed by a set of 10 food choices.
In general, kids did not choose foods based on their health ratings and chose based on taste. But after watching a food commercial, taste seemed even more important to them and they make their choices faster. The area of the brain involved in reward valuation was more active during food decisions after watching food – related commercials than after non-food commercials.
“What we know from studies like this one is that food marketing has effects that go beyond simply increasing our liking or wanting of the product being advertised and actually affect our preferences for all foods in that category,” Bruce said. “They should also discuss with children the importance of thinking about commercials properly.” “But commercials are almost everywhere -television, online, radio, clothing .As adults, we have to work to teach children that a real healthy diet to support a full and active life contains very little of the food they see advertised,” Boyland said.
32. What were the children asked to do in the research?
A. Select favourite commercials.
B. Observe the activity of brain cells.
C. Decide whether to eat or not to eat
D. List health ratings for some foods.
33. What happened to the children after watching food commercials?
A. The reward centres in their brains acted actively.
B. They made food choices based on health ratings.
C. They were confused by food commercials.
D. They had a good command of the methods to choose foods.
34. What can we infer from Boyland’s words?
A. All the food advertised does harm to children.
B. Children should be forbidden to watch food commercials.
C. It’s hard to stop kids being exposed to food advertising.
D. Children should be warned not to eat the advertised foods..
35. What is mainly talked about in the passage?
A. Children make decisions quickly when watching commercials:
B. Children’s bad eating habits are mainly caused by food commercials.
C.Parents are concerned about the effect of food advertisements on kids.
D. Food advertisements can have a, great effect ion children’s eating habits.

Dear Dave,
In your last letter, you asked me about the Spring Festival. As is known to all, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country.
Usually, no matter how far away or how busy we are, we will try to co me home for the celebration. On the eve of the Spring Festival, all the family members get together, making dumplings and having a feast. Children have great fun in setting off fireworks. Parents take their kids to pay a visit to relatives or friends. In addition to these traditional activities, people have a new tendency to celebrate it such as travelling and sending best wishes through WeChat.
Hopefully, you will come to China to experience it. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
