题目内容

　　It's a 5-year-old Karmen's dream to be a ballet (芭蕾舞) dancer. But Karmen, who lives in Denver (丹佛), was born with the AIDS virus (病毒) and has spent much of her short life going in and out of the hospital.

　　Karmen has done better than anyone had hoped. Doctors thought she would never walk or talk, but she gets around with a walker (助行架) and speaks well.

　　Karmen may not grow up to be a ballet dancer. But even if it's difficult for her to walk, she was changed when she wore a short ballet skirt. Her mother bought her the skirt. She was really like a ballet dancer.

　　Sometimes, Karmen puts her head on her folded (交叉) hands because she is tired, and sometimes she needs to talk with God. One of her prayers (祈祷) goes, “Dear God, please make my legs and body strong. Please let me grow up.”

　　Children with cancer, AIDS and other serious illnesses want to know that they are not alone. They want truthful answers to difficult questions, and they want to tell stories—for the family, friends and for themselves.

B．She seemed to grow taller.

C．She got well from her illness.

D．She looked like a ballet dancer.

(4) What do we learn from Karmen's prayers?

[　　]

A．She is eager (渴望) to become healthy and strong.

B．She believes God can save her.

C．She has no one to talk to.

D．She hopes that God loves her.

(5) What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?

[　　]

A．Children who are seriously ill need to be treated with more care and honesty. (真诚)

B．It's wrong to tell the children with serious illness the truth of their trouble.

C．Children only want to talk to their families or friends when they are seriously ill.
