A

Gregory Talley used to sleep in a park or under a bridge. The 50-year-old has been

homeless for more than 10 years.

"It is hard. It's hard to live homeless. You filled every day trying to find out where

you are going to get something to eat. If I hadn't found wonderful Fairfax County

Kennedy Shelter, I wouldn't know where I would be by now. I might be dead," Talley

said.

The Kennedy Shelter is one of the facilities New Hope Housing provides for homeless

people.

Pam Michell has devoted her life to making the lives of this vulnerable (易受伤的)population better as executive director of the non-profit organization.

"I went to Africa in 1985. And I saw a huge amount of poverty, but I saw so much hope.

And I decided that I should try to do something that would bring hope to people," Michell

said.

When Michell began working with New Hope Housing 25 years ago, its three shelters

had about 80 beds. Now, it has 350 beds and serves about 1,500 homeless people every

year. She has expanded the program beyond just providing beds for the night.

"We do outreach(拓展), we do prevention, we do permanent housing, we do transitional

housing. We have an education program with all sorts of different things to move people

to end their homelessness," she said,"Our Out of Poverty program is not just about

money. It's about you could be spiritually poor, you could be relationship poor ...

you could be educationally poor. So it is focusing on how you get out of this poverty

that has brought you to being homeless." The program tries to teach the shelter

residents self-reliance (自立) and work values, and includes courses on planning and

personal responsibility.

"l learned I still have opportunities to change it and I can change it," said shelter

resident Lewis Webster. "It is just about going forth in doing necessary work to do

it. I mean if you really want better, you would do better and that's the frame of mind

of me now."

Nowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified

foods ( GM foods). GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms (有机体), which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic

engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise where an

organism is exposed to chemicals to create a nonspecific but stable change. For

many people, the hightech production raises all kinds of environmental, ethical,

health and safety problems. Particularly in countries with long farming traditions,

the idea seems against nature.

In fact, GM foods are already very much a part of our lives. They were first

put on the market in 1996. A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown

in the U. S. last year was the product of biotechnology, according to the

一、阅读理解。

We were ordinary people taking the bus every day that summer.During the early

morning rides，we sat sleepily on our seats.One of the passengers was a small grey

man to the center for senior citizens.He walked with a stoop(驼背) and a sad look

on his face.We paid little attention to him.

Then one July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled to us before

sitting down.The driver nodded politely，the rest of us being silent.The next day，the old man boarded the bus energetically，smiled and said loud，“Good morning！”Some

of us looked up，amazed，and murmured“Good morning”．The following weeks we were

more surprised.Our friend was dressed in a nice old suit with the thin hair carefully

combed.He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk
