Tang Zhou and his wife are planning to have their second child, a test-tube baby. His wife had a natural delivery when she was 34 and their first child, a boy, is now 7. The couple are now hoping to have a daughter through a surrogate mother in the US. “My wife couldn’t bear another delivery because of her heart condition and her age. Surrogacy hel ps avoid the risks to older mothers,” Tang said, “Moreover, our second child will be born in the US and become a citizen there. That is not a bad choice.”

The couple spent weeks researching their move, looking for a reliable agency that provides surrogacy services overseas. Surrogacy is still illegal in many countries, including China. “We will be taking much higher risks by relying on a surrogate mother in China because we are not protected by any regulation or law. You pay a lot of money but may meet with many problems,” Tang said. “You might not even get your baby back.”

Tang and his wife are part of an increasing number of Chinese couples who are turning to surrogacy services. Tang also considered surrogacy in Thailand but dropped the idea after recent reports about a baby with Down Syndrome(唐氏综合症) who was delivered through surrogacy and said to have been deserted in Thailand by the biological parents from Australia. Instead, Tang chose the California Surrogacy Center agency as his first option after reading the detailed introduction on its website. Compared with many other agencies that he could contact only via e-mail, the center has a consulting office in Beijing, Tang said.

The center is in San Diego, California, and has satellite offices in Los Angeles and Beijing. According to Liu, the center has been operating for more than eight years, and about 100 surrogate mothers live in California.

72. “A surrogate mother” refers to a mother who _______.

A. acts as a baby-sitter  B. nurses another woman’s baby

C. offers service to a new mother D. gives birth to a baby for another woman

73. Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A. Chinese couples prefer to have a test-tube baby.

B. Couples face no risks in surrogacy services.

C. A sick test-tube baby was deserted in Thailand.

D. Unhealthy test-tube babies can be legally abandoned.

W: Check, please.

M: That’ll be 21.50.

W: That’s cheap!

M: We try to make good food for less, madam.

Text 2

M: Hi, Shirley. This is Rich. Is Peter there?

W: I’m sorry, but my name isn’t Shirley and there is no one here named Peter. I’m afraid you have the wrong number.

Text 3

M: Honey, aren’t you ready to go? We need to drive 20 minutes to get to the theater.

W: Take your time, dear. The play won’t start until 7:30, so we still have 40 minutes to go.

Text 4

W: Jack, do you manage to continue playing sports?

M: No. By the time I get home at night, it is always too late to do any training. Besides, I always have so much homework to do.

Text 5

W: Bill, have you heard the news? It appears we won’t be laid off after all.

M: Oh, I’m somewhat tired of working here. I’ve been wondering whether I should leave. Anyway, the news seems to be good for you.

Text 6

W: What’s wrong, Josh?

M: Well, it’s just that I can’t make any friends here. It wasn’t like this at my other university.

W: Give it some time, Josh. You just transferred and all the other students have already been here for two years.

M: I know. Hey, you seem like a popular person. What do you suggest I do to get to know more people?

W: I don’t have anything special that I do. But my motto is to put myself in the other person’s shoes at all times.

Text 7

M: ... And this work here is our gallery’s finest and most splendid piece.

W: This black line?

M: Um, yes, Mrs. Brown. This is Chinese writing, an example of the styles of the late Tang period.

W: What does it mean? Those crazy black lines?

M: Well, actually sometimes even Chinese people have trouble recognizing individual characters. But, it is intended to be the character for “dragon”. It is pronounced “Long”.

W: Hey, it actually does look like a dragon when I think about it.

M: This is the power of great Chinese artists. They bring the works to life with only a few movements of a brush and only in black and white.

W: I always wondered why people paid top dollar for these pieces. I guess you can’t really see the magic of it without understanding the language. How much is this one?

M: 500,000 yuan.

Text 8

M: How did you spend your we ekend?

W: I went to a movie with my boyfriend.

M: Really? How was it?

W: It was great. The director did a great job. People say he has a good chance of winning the Oscar for best director. Also I liked the actors, some really great new young actors.

M: Oh yeah? What’s the film about?

W: Well, it’s a classic love story of two people from conflicting backgrounds. Besides the story, the camera work is great and the music in the film is nice, too.

M: It sounds pretty good. Is it a tragedy?

W: The ending is a bit of a surprise. I don’t want to ruin it for you.

M: Oh, I like movies with surprise endings, although sometimes they can be frustrating. Maybe I should invite my girlfriend to go see it next weekend.

W: You should. It’s a great date movie.

Text 9

W: How was your trip to the United States?

M: Pretty good.

W: I’m glad to hear that. What impressed you the most?

M: Well, the culture differences were really interesting.

W: You mean we Chinese think differently from Americans?

M: That’s right, quite different. One day one of my American friends looked pale, so I asked him whether he was sick or not. But he was reluctant to answer me.

W: That’s strange.

M: And what’s more, when he told me he had been sick with a cold for several days, I suggested he go to the hospital as soon as possible.

W: That shows you really cared about your friend.

M: Yeah. But he responded by saying, “What do you mean?”

W: I’m confused. Why did he say that?

M: I felt the same way at first. Later he told me that it’s not a good idea to give people suggestions about what to do when they are sick. But back in China, giving advice is always regarded as being kind.

W: Absolutely. But now I understand why he responded that way.

Now class, I’d like to tell you all about your final examination next week. As you know, the test will cover everything we have learned this year from the start of the term all the way until our last unit. That might sound like a lot of material to study, so I have some tips that I will share with you.

First, plan ahead. Do not wait until the night before the test to start reviewing. That will not work and you will be very upset with your results. We have a total of eight units. I suggest studying one unit every night for the next week. We have ten days until the exam so you will have plenty of time if you choose to do it this way.

Second, focus on studying only the most important topics we’ve discussed. Studying is mostly about using your time well. You cannot possibly remember everything so just review the main points.

The two days before the exam will be review sessions where we will review together in class. Please prepare any questions you have for those days. Otherwise, I will be available during lunch and after school for one hour every day until the exam. Good luck and keep a positive attitude. Success is what you make of it.
