Dixie Rose Makes Another Stride in Recovery
The St. Louis Derby winner Dixie Rose had the cast changed on his broken hind leg, his veterinarian said yesterday, and the plates and screws that were inserted three weeks ago appear to be working.
The first cast, which was placed on Dixie Rose's leg after four hours of surgery on May 21, was removed under general anesthesia, the University of Missouri School of Veterinary Medicine's Skroll Center said in a news release.
"His leg looks excellent," Dr. Debra Gregory said in the release. She added that the incision had healed well and the graft was taking.
Dr. Gregory implanted a plate and 27 screws to help the ankle fuse a day after Dixie Rose fell during the Holloway Stakes race in Charleston, South Carolina.
"All of the implants look unchanged," Dr. Gregory said. "The prognosis is good. It's unlikely he will race again, but the leg should recover fully."
Dixie Rose, a three-year-old colt, remains in the intensive care unit at the hospital in Columbia, MO.
What is learned about Dixie Rose?
A.He won the St. Louis Derby.
B.He won three of his last four races.
C.He was unable to start the Holloway Stakes.
D.He was not expected to win the Holloway Stakes.

9. Origins of the Papal States The Papal States were territories in central Italy that were directly governed by the papacy—not only spiritually but in a temporal, secular sense. The extent of papal control, which officially began in 756 and lasted until 1870, varied over the centuries, as did the geographical boundaries of the region. Generally, the territories included present-day Lazio, Marche, Umbria, and part of Emilia-Romagna. The bishops of Rome first acquired lands around the city in the 4th century; these lands were known as the Patrimony of St. Peter. Beginning in the 5th century, when the Western Empire officially came to an end and the influence of the Eastern (Byzantine) Empire in Italy weakened, the power of the bishops, who were now often called "papa" or pope, increased as the populace turned to them for aid and protection. Pope Gregory the Great, for example, did a great deal to help refugees from invading Lombards and even managed to establish peace with the invaders for a time. Gregory is credited with consolidating the papal holdings into a unified territory. While officially the lands that would become the Papal States were considered part of the Eastern Roman Empire, for the most part, they were overseen by officers of the Church. The official beginning of the Papal States came in the 8th century. Thanks to the Eastern empire's increased taxation and inability to protect Italy, and, more especially, the emperor's views on iconoclasm, Pope Gregory II broke with the empire, and his successor, Pope Gregory III, upheld the opposition to the iconoclasts. Then, when the Lombard had seized Ravenna and were on the verge of conquering Rome, Pope Stephen II (or III) turned to the King of the Franks, Pippin III (the "Short"). Pippin promised to restore the captured lands to the pope; he then succeeded in defeating the Lombard leader, Aistulf, and made him return the lands the Lombard had captured to the papacy, ignoring all Byzantine claims to the territory. Pippin's promise and the document that recorded it in 756 are known as the Donation of Pippin and provide the legal foundation for the Papal States. This is supplemented by the Treaty of Pavia, in which Aistulf officially ceded conquered lands to the bishops of Rome. Scholars theorize that the forged Donation of Constantine was created by an unknown cleric around about this time, as well. Legitimate donations and decrees by Charlemagne, his son Louis the Pious and his grandson Lothar I confirmed the original foundation and added to the territory. 18.

A、King of the Franks.
B、Pippin III.

听力原文: Hello. First, I'd like to tell you a little bit about myself and then I'll move on to the demonstration. My name is Debra Page and I've been a professional chef with The Seasoned Cook for five years now. In this role, I've been able to work doing two things I love—cooking and meeting new people. The Seasoned Cook was founded twenty years ago to provide people with kitchen products that reduce both cooking and clean-up time. Tonight I'll be preparing two easy, delicious treats for you. The first is an appetizer that can be made very quickly using several prepared items from the supermarket. The second treat is a dessert that takes a little bit longer to make, but is well worth the trouble. As I prepare these dishes, I'll be demonstrating some of our efficient, effective, inexpensive kitchen products for you. And at the end of the demonstration, we'll all be able to sample the results. Then I'll help you place your orders for Seasoned Cook products.
