Bobbi Kristina Brown's family has been gathered around her since she was hospitalized on Saturday after being found unconscious in the bathtub of her suburban Atlanta townhome.
Whitney Houston's only child is now at Emory University Hospital and is still fighting for her life, as a family statement said on Monday.
Nothing has changed, despite reports that are popping up and painting a more serious picture.
Fox News reported Wednesday that the situation is horrific. “It's now a matter of when the family wants to let go and accept that she's pretty much not going to make it，” a source told FOX411. “They've left it up to the family as to how long they want to keep her alive.”
People Magazine is also reporting that a doctor told Brown's family on Wednesday that nothing more could be done. “Everyone is coming to the hospital to say goodbye，” said a family member.
And the Daily Mail says Brown has been taken off life support.
But Bobby Brown issued a statement late Thursday denying these reports.
“If we issued a statement every time the media published a false report regarding this matter, that's all we would be doing 24 hours a day. This is false, just as is the vast majority of the other reporting that is currently taking place，” he said, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
A source close to the family tells USA TODAY that it's wrong to say the family is gathering to say goodbye, because the family has been there since the beginning, so nothing is any different today for them.
Also, Brown is “not brain dead，” as has been reported.
And, as for other stories saying that the Houston family is feuding with Bobbi Kristina's dad, Bobby Brown? Those aren't true either. They “are NOT fighting，” says our source.

Archaeologists Discover 110 New Warrior Statues in China
After being barried for centuries,110 new warrior statues has been discovered in Xi’an，China.The statues are part of a collection of lifesize figures of warriors and horses called the Terracotta Army(兵马俑).The group of more than 7,000 lifesize clay sculptures was built in 210 B.C.to guard the tomb of China’s first emperor，Qin Shi Huang.

The Warriors’ History
The sculptures were discovered by a group of farmers in 1974.While digging a well，the workers found three pits filled with the lifelike figures，which were made of a type of terracotta clay.Experts say that long ago，Emperor Qin Shi Huang ordered the creation of the clay army，along with a 20squaremile tomb in which to house it.For 36 years,700,000 laborers built this underground city.It contains models of palaces and towers，and was protected from intruders(闯入者) by.The city lay buried for more than 2,000 years.
A Worldwide Attraction
Today，people from around the world visit China to see the terracotta warriors.What makes the soldiers so special？Each figure was individually carved，so they have different hairstyles，expressions and facial features.The details make the soldiers appear true to life.Inside the pit，the statues are arranged by military rank.The higher the rank，the taller the statue.The shortest statue is 5 feet 8 inches.The tallest is 6 feet 6 inches.The lower half of each soldier is made of solid clay，while the upper half is hollow.This makes it easier for the figures to remain upright.
Great Wall

Horton
At first glance，there is little in Horton to attract people.The other nearby towns have much more to offer：Bradfield has its river and historic buildings，while Newtown has shops and entertainment.The buildings of Horton look dirty and unloved.For shops，there is a small supermarket，a few bargain shops，a bakery which，strangely，does not sell bread and a florist which has one stand of sadlooking flowers.Even so，Horton has several advantages over its neighbouring towns.
Firstly，it has a country park.Four thousand years ago，this was an important fort.There are no historic remains here now，but there are wonderful views over the countryside.On sunny weekends you can often see kids out with their parents，kicking balls or flying kites.
There aren’t many job opportunities in Horton，and the roads to nearby cities aren’t really fast，but there are excellent rail links.You can be in London in an hour and a half，and other cities are less than an hour away.That means that parents can earn a good salary and still get home in time to spend the evenings with their families.Houses in Horton aren’t pretty，but they’re functional and cheap.The streets are quiet and safe，and there are plenty of parks and playgrounds.It has a library，three primary schools and a secondary school，St.Mark’s.It is friendly and offers a wide range of subjects and activities to children of all abilities and backgrounds.The town also has a swimming and a sports centre，and the community halls hold regular clubs and events for people of all ages.

（2024高考阅读理解）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。
One windy spring day，I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites.Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds dashing and dancing in the exciting atmosphere above the earth.As the strong winds gusted against the kites，a string kept them in check.
Instead of blowing away with the wind，they arose against it to achieve great heights.They shook and pulled，but the controlling string and the clumsy tail kept them in tow(牵引)，facing upward and against the wind.As the kites struggled and trembled against the string，they seemed to say，“Let me go！Let me go！I want to be free！” They flew beautifully even as they fought the forced restriction of the string.Finally，one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose.“Free at last，” it seemed to say.“Free to fly with the wind.”
Yet freedom from control simply put it at the mercy of an unsympathetic gentle wind.It flew ungracefully to the ground and landed in a twisted mass of weeds and string against a dead bush.“Free at last”．Free to lie powerless in the dirt，to be blown helplessly along the ground，and to settle down lifeless against the first roadblock.
