One evening after dinner, Mr.and Mrs.William called a family meeting.“We’ve had to make a difficult decision.” Mr.William announced.

“You see, your mother has been offered a post as co-director of a television in Chicago.Unluckily, the station is not here.After thinking long and hard about it, we’ve concluded (下结论) that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”

  Peter looked shocked, while his sister Amy breathlessly started asking when they’d be moving:“It’s surprising, but exciting!” she said.

Peter simply said, “We can’t go -I can’t leave all my friends.I’d rather stay here and live with Tommy!”

  Mr.and Mrs.William hoped that by the time they moved in August, Peter would grow more accustomed (习惯) to the idea of leaving.However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings (物品).

  When the morning of the move arrived, Peter was nowhere to be found.

His parents called Tommy’s house, but Tommy’s mother said she hadn’t seen Peter.Mrs.William became increasingly worried, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly (不负责任).

  What they didn’t know was that Peter had started walking over to Tommy’s house, with a faint idea of hiding in Tommy’s attic (阁楼) for a few days.But something happened on the way as Peter walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood:the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together.How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place? Peter didn’t take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons (纸板箱) the right size to hold his record collection.

It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War III. She’ll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.
“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she bemoans all the time. Her co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame (名声) or salary(薪水).
I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 a.m. and usually comes home around 5 p.m. or even 6 p.m. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.
【小题1】Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?

【小题3】The underlined word “bemoans” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _____________.
A.agreesB.shoutsC.complainsD.smiles
【小题4】Which of following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?
A.He wants to be like his mother’s co-worker’s son.
B.He wants to find a job in his community in the future.

It is my duty to save other people’s lives and I was trained to do this.When you see a family suffering from SARS and seriously ill patients worrying about their dying relatives,the only thing you want to do is to try to help them.

I treat SARS patients as ordinary patients, never making them ted they are dangerous.I believe this mental support(精神支柱)is important to those suffering from loneliness and despair(绝望).After a day’s work,when lying in bed at the hospital,the most beautiful sound I want to hear is my two—year—old son’s voice.
