"... She was married to an officer in India, long ago India; and she had a life of physical adventure( 冒险) as exciting as her poetry. Her husband could cross rivers using crocodiles (鳄鱼) as stepping stones. He died when she was only 39. Unwilling to exist without him, she took her life, leaving a son in England. "

The wife used to watch him--I felt sure of that. She lived(30)the adventure, the (31)excitement of it all. Their real life was with tigers, snakes...It´s no wonder she wrote(32)poetry.
Then he died. I imagined how she felt. Was there another man(33)him in India, in the world? She was still young, hardly a sitting-room widow(寡妇)."I must(34),too. " she said to herself. So she did what she felt she had to do. A(35)probably, to her head.

"It' s no use, Mum, "said Johnny."I' m just no good at dancing."
"You' ve got to keep trying.Tonight will be 21 ,dear.Try a turn with that pretty Lisette."
Johnny 22 .Every Saturday night used to be the best of the week.He and his parents went to the 23 at the Club, where his hero, Alcide, played the accordion(手风琴) with the band.But lately everything had changed.Now that Johnny was older, he was 24 to dance with a girl!
25 Johnny and his parents arrived at the Club, music had already started.Johnny got up his 26 to approach Lisette."May I have this dance?" Johnny asked."That's all right," said Lisette.
Johnny struggled to keep up with Lisette' s 27 steps, but he was always one beat behind her.Then Johnny heard his friend Pierre say," Look! Johnny has two left feet!" Laughter burst from the crowd.
Johnny 28 and ran outside, determined never to go to another dance.
The next Saturday, Alcide drove to Johnny' s house for some potatoes.He happened to hear Johnny playing the accordion.Alcide' s eyes 29 "Bring that accordion and play some songs tonight,"Alcide said.Then he drove off, leaving Johnny staring open-mouthed 30 him.
At the Club,Johnny scanned the crowd for Lisette and 31 her.The band played for a long time before Alcide said," Dear friends, I got a 32 for you tonight.Young Johnny is going to join us!"
Trembling ,Johnny stepped up on the platform, his eyes on the floor.He began to play, and the band joined in behind him.When the song ended, he heard cheers.Johnny kept playing until the dance was 33 ." You did a fine job tonight.Play with us again next Saturday night," Alcide said."Yes, sir!"
said Johnny. 34 he went outside, Johnny saw Lisette and her friends near the door.Lisette stepped forward, smiling," You played really good tonight!" she said.
"Thank you," Johnny blushed (脸红).As he walked on, Pierre 35 moved out of the way for him to pass.

Every Chinese-language textbook starts out with the standard phrases (短语)for greeting peo-ple; but as an Ameri can, I always found myself unable to speak freely when it came to seeing guests off at the door. Just a good-bye would not do, yet that was all I had ever learned from the terrible books. So I would smile and nod, bowing(鞠躬)like a Japanese and searching madly for words that would smooth over the visitor´ s leaving and make them feel they would be welcome to come again. In my unease, I often hid behind the skirts of my Chinese husband´ s kindness.
Then finally, listening to others, I began to pick up the phrases that eased relationships and sent people off not only successfully but also skillfully.
Partings for the Chinese include a lot of necessary habitual practice. Although I´ m not expected to observe or even know all the rules, as a foreigner, I´ ve had to learn the expressions of politeness and protest( 抗议, 反对) at a leaving-taking.
The Chinese feel they must see a guest off to the farthest possible point-down the flight of stairs to the street below or perhaps all the way to the nearest bus stop. I´ ve sometimes waited half an hour or more for my husband to return from seeing a guest off, since he´ s gone to the bus stop and waited for the next bus to arrive.
That´s very well, but when I´m the guest being seen off, my protests are always useless. My hostess or host, or both, insists on seeing me down the stairs and well on my way, with my repeating the "Don´t bother( give the trouble)to see me off" at every landing. If I try to go fast to discourage them from following, they are simply out to the discomfort of having to run after me. Better to accept the inevitable ( 不可避免的 ).
Besides, that´ s going against Chinese custom, because haste ( doing things quickly) is to be avoided. What do you say when you part from someone? "Go slowly. " Not farewell or Godspeed (祝福), but "Go slowly". To the Chinese it means "Take care" or "Watch your step", or some such cau- tion ,but translated literally(照字面地) it means "Go slowly".
It can be inferred that the writer
A.
speaks Chinese
B.
lives in the USA
C.
dislikes her husband' s ways of seeing guests off
D.
refuses to follow the Chinese custom of seeing guests off

Karen MacInnes had spent nine months in the hospital. As she grew weaker, the 16-year-old girl asked her parents, Am I going to me.
Her mother told Karen the truth. After learning the bad news, all Karen wanted was to go home.
Her parents decided to satisfy her wish--no matter that medical fund (基金), which had helped pay for Karen´ s hospitalization, would not cover any of the full time medical care she would need at home. When she was carried through her front door, Karen smiled for the first time in months.
A friend of the MacInnes family, Sheila Petersen, knew of this and offered to help. She volun-teered( 自愿) not only to find nurses, but also to raise money for Karen´ s care. Money was received from so many people that Sheila created a fund," Friends of Karen".

"I still have a relationship with each family," says Sheila. "We have four children who are near death now, and I want to be there for them. "Sheila admits (承认) the work is sometimes difficult, but says," the smile on a child´s face makes it all worthwhile(值得的). "

The ordinary family in colonial North America was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond that, is own economic prosperity. Thus, children were valued in terms of their productivity, and they assumed the role of producer quite early. Until they fulfilled this role, their position in the structure of the family was one of subordination ( 从属), and their psychological needs and capacities received little consideration.
As the society became more complex, the status of children in the family and in the society became more important. In the complex, technological society that the United States has become,each member must fulfill a number of personal and occupational roles and be in constant contact with a great many other members. Consequently, viewing children as potentially acceptable members of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian organisms.
This acceptance of children as equal participants in the contemporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being.

A young woman rode with her new husband in a wagon(四轮马车).They came to a log cabin (小木屋).The man shouted and a little boy came running out of the cabin.Sarah, the young woman, got down from the wagon, opened wide her arms and held the boy close.
"Hello, Abe Lincoln," she said."I think we'll be good friends."
The new mother with the smiling face went to work at once.She washed Abe and his sister and tidied(弄整齐) their hair.And that night she threw away the boy's mattress(床垫) of leaves and gave him a soft mattress and enough blankets to keep him warm at night.
Sarah wove cloth and made new shirts for Abe.She made him new deerskin trousers and even deerskin shoes.
Maybe, if she hadn' t come to the cabin, he wouldn' t have lived to be a man.When Abe' s father told him not to go to school any more and help on the farm, Sarah took Abe' s part against his father.Abe would rather read than eat, and when his father told him to stop, Sarah said, " Let the boy read."
In 1530 the day came when Abe would leave home to work in New Salem.For the last time she had taken Abe's part against his father.For the last time she had kept the cabin quiet so that Abe could read.
More than twenty years later,when Abe,whohad then become famous,was going to make a speech in a nearby town, Sarah went there just to watch him.In the crowd she tried to make herself small, but he saw her, and in front of everybody, got out of his carriage and went over and put his arms around her and kissed her.Yes, that was her Abe.
"He loved me truly," she said later.
If Sarah hadn' t come to the cabin,_______.
A.
Abe' s father wouldn' t have told him not to go to school

Student participation(参与) in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses.Some professors base part of the final grade on the student' s oral participation.Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes),
many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures.In graduate discussions the professor has a "manager" role and the students make presentations and lead discussions.The students do the actual teaching in these discussions.
A professor' s teaching method is another factor (因素) that determines the degree and type of student participation.Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it.Many professors encourage students to question their ideas.Students who object to the professor' s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.
In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional ,with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes.However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years.Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design
projects, make presentations, and examine case studies.Since some college or university courses are"practical" rather than theoretical ,they pay more attention to "doing" for themselves.
From the passage we know that education in the humanities and society_______.
A.
has not changed much
B.
pay attention to students' studying instead of teachers' teaching
C.
is much more important than that of science and mathematics
D.
has become more practical than theoretical

Lisa was running late.Lisa,25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way : her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn't been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away,Frank,43, and his girlfriend,Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, " Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn't hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!
Not you!" his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness ,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she'd been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn't, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown--just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time. "I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die," she explained.
When did Lisa become conscious again?
A.
When the train was leaving.
B.
After she was back on the platform.
C.
After the policeand fire officials came.
D.
When a man was cleaning the blood from her head.

The next time you try for a high-ranking post,you could let your possible boss listen to a recommending(推荐)phone call "made" by US President George W.Bush or British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Of course ,neither of them could really do that for you--you would just "borrow" their voices.
AT & T labs will start selling speech software that it says is so good at reproducing the sounds of a hmnan voice that it can recreate voices and even bring the voices of long-dead famous people back to life.
The software, which turns printed text into speech, makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person' s voice to say things that the person never actually said.
Possible customers for the software, which is priced in the thousands of dollars, includes telephone call centers, companies that make software that reads digital (数字的)flies aloud, and makers of automated voice devices(装量).The advances raise several problems.Who ,for example, owns the rights to a famous person's voice? Some experts even believe that new contracts(合同) will be drawn that include voice-licensing clauses.
And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough to commit fraud (假冒), would the synthesized (合成的)voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they know?
Even Mr.Fruchterman,one of AT & T labs' possible first customers,said he wondered what the new technology might bring."Just like you can't trust a photograph any more." he said,"you won't be able to trust a voice either."
With the help of the speech software it is most possible_______.
A.
to improve a famous person' s speech
B.
to say what you want in another' s voice
C.
to make a speech much more easily
D.
to help you to find a better job

A world like no other—perhaps this is the best way to describe the world of the rainforest. No rainforest is the same—yet most rainforests can be found in the small land area 22.5 degrees north and 22.5 degrees south of the Equator (赤道). You can find rainforests in South America and Indo-nesia. Other rainforests exist further from the Equator, in Thailand and Sri Lanka.
Rainforests have a great role to play in supporting the world. They are home to a rich variety of plants, birds and animals. Can you believe that 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hec-tare (公顷) of rainforest? These forests have around 50% of all the plants, birds and animals on Earth.
Rainforests have their own perfect way for living. The tall trees make a huge umbrella of bran-ehes and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain, dry heat from the sun and strong winds. Rainforest trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches, although close together, never actually touch those of another tree. Scientists think this isa way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects(昆虫). To live in the forest, animals must climb, jump, or fly across the branches and trees. The ground floor of the forest is not all leaves and bushes, like in films, but is actually fairly clear. It is where leaves become food for the trees and other forest life.
Rainforests around the world are disappearing at a high speed. A few thousand years ago, rain-forests covered as much as 12% of the land surface on Earth, but today this has fallen to less than5.3%. We hope that the world governments work together with scientists to use their power and knowledge to keep the rainforests for our existence.

When you go on your job interview (面试) , be sure to dress well, be on time, do your research and NEVER ask any of the following questions:
1. "How quickly could I be promoted (晋升)?"
An employer first of all wants an employee to be happy with the position they have. Ambition( 抱负) is good, but there is a time and place to discuss promotion, and it´ s not during an interview.
2. "Will I be able to work from home?"
This is basically telling your future boss--before you´ ve even started--that you´ re too lazy to come into the office.
3. "How much vacation time does this position offer?"
Although this could be asked, this is the type of information you should get AFTER you´ ve been offered a position and not before.
4. "Will I have to work with a team?"
Almost all jobs need some kind of teamwork, so any sign that you are not a good team player will leave you with unfavorable points in an employer´s eyes.
5. "Does this position come with a handsome pay?"
The pay is usually discussed after a position has been offered. If an employer offers this subject,feel free to discuss it. Otherwise, try not to look like you are interested only in things for your owngood. An employer will more readily hire someone interested in bettering themselves AND the company as a whole.

You know what a hotel is, of course. And perhaps, you also know what a condo is—a residential(居住的) building divided into separate units that are owned by different people. What you may not know is that in some U. S. cities, the two have come together into something called a "condo hotel".
Some condo hotels can now be found in beach and mountain towns and a few small cities. However, none is more famous than the great 105-year-old Plaza Hotel in New York, on Fifth Avenue across from Central Park. The Plaza closed for repair in 2005. When it reopened two years later, more than half of it had been changed into one of these modern condo hotels.
Here´ s how it works : You buy what equals to an apartment (公寓). If it´ s at The Plaza, it will cost you between $1.5 million and $9 million. So you own a part of the building. But there´ s stone inconvinience. You may stay there no more than 120 days a year. The rest of the time, the hotel´ s workers can book guests into your place ,just as they would in the regular hotel´ s rooms. So if you´ re lucky and rich, you can now live in really special quarters up to almost one third of the year, while others pay off your mortgage (房贷) the rest of the year.
So far, a great many of the nation´ s condo hotel units have been purchased not by rich people but by richer companies, including foreign ones. They want a nice place for their bosses to stay when they´ re in town or working late at the office.
What does purchased in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.
Closed.
B.
Bought.
C.
Damaged.
D.
Repaired.
