18．When I was eight，I saw a movie about an island that had an erupting volcano and jungles filled with wild animals．The island was ruled by a beautiful woman called Tondalaya，the Fire Goddess of the Volcano．It was a low budget movie，but to me，it represented the perfect life．But through the years，Tondalaya was forgotten．
The week I turned 50，my marriage came to a sudden end．My house，furniture and everything I'd owned was sold to pay debts that I didn't even know existed．In a week I had lost my husband，my home and my parents who had refused to accept a divorce in the family．
I'd lost everything except my four teenage children．I used every penny I had to buy five plane tickets from Missouri to Hawaii．Everyone said I was crazy to think I could just run off to an island and survive．I was afraid they were right．
I worked 18hours a day and lost 30pounds because I lived on one meal a day．One night as I walked alone on the beach，I saw the red orange lava（火山岩） pouring out of Kilauea Volcano in the distance．It was time to live my imagination!
The next day，I quit my job，bought some art supplies and began doing what I loved．I hadn't painted a picture in 15years．I wondered if 1could Still paint．My hands trembled the first time I picked up a brush．But before an hour had passed，I was lost in the colors spreading across the canvas（画布） in front of me．And as soon as I started believing in myself，other people started believing in me，too．The first painting sold for﹩1500．
The past six years have been filled with adventures．My children and I have gone swimming with dolphins，watched whales and hiked around the crater rim （火山口边缘） of the volcano．We wake up every morning with the ocean in front of us and the volcano behind us．
The dream I had more than 40years ago is now reality．I'm living freely and happily ever after．

12．As we drove along，my spirits went up again，and I turned，with pleasure，to the thought of the new life which I was entering．But though it was not far past the middle of September，the heavy clouds and strong north-easterly wind combined to make the day extremely cold； and the journey seemed a very long one，so that it was nearly one o'clock before we reached the place of our destination．Yet when we entered the gateway，my heart failed me，and I wished it were a mile or two farther off．For the first time in my life I must stand alone：there was no retreating now．I must enter that house，and introduce myself among its strange people．But how was it to be done？True，I was near nineteen； but，thanks to the protecting care of my mother and sister，I well knew that many a girl of fifteen，or under，was gifted with a more womanly address，and greater ease and self-possession，than I was．Yet，anyway．I would do very well，after all； and the children，of course，I should soon be at ease with them．
"Be calm，be calm，whatever happens，"I said within myself； and truly I was so fully occupied in steadying my nerves and keeping down the rebellious beat of my heart that when I was admitted into the hall and into the presence of Mrs．Bloomfield，I almost forgot to answer her polite greeting； and it afterwards struck me that the little I did say was spoken in the tone of one half-dead or half-asleep．
With due politeness，however，she showed me my bedroom，and left me there to take a little refreshment for a little while and led me into the dining-room．Some beefsteaks and potatoes were set before me； and while I dined upon these，she sat opposite，watching me （as I thought） and trying to keep something like a conversation-consisting chiefly of commonplace remarks．In fact，my attention was almost wholly absorbed in my dinner：not from appetite，but from the toughness of the beefsteaks，and the numbness of my hands．
"I have had so little time to attend to their education myself，but I think they are clever children，and very willing to learn，especially the little boy； he is，I think，the flower of the flock-a generous，noble-spirited boy，one to be led，but not driven，and remarkable for always speaking the truth．""His sister Mary Ann will require watching，"continued she，"but she is a very good girl on the whole，though I wish her to be kept out of the nursery as much as possible，as she is now almost six years old，and might acquire bad habits from the nurses．I have ordered her bed to be placed in your room，and if you will be so kind as to look after her washing and dressing，and take charge of her clothes，she needs to have nothing further to do with the nursery maid．"
I replied I was quite willing to do so； and at that moment the children entered the room．Tom Bloomfield was a well-grown boy of seven．Mary was a tall girl，for her age of six，somewhat dark like her mother．The second sister was Fanny，a very pretty little girl，looking little younger than Mary．The remaining one was Harriet，a little broad，fat，merry，playful thing of scarcely two，whom I had more desire for than all the rest-but with her I had nothing to do．

67．Which of the following statements best describes how the writer felt when she entered Mrs．Bloomfield's home？A
A．She was nervous，dissatisfied with her manners but still confident．
B．She was cold，hungry but eager to see all the children in the family．
C．She was frightened，nervous and regretful about her decision．
D．She was calm，confident and very happy with all the family．
68．What job would the writer take in Mrs Bloomfield's home？D
A．A nursery maid．  B．A house cleaner．  C．A home cook．  D．A family teacher．
69．Which of the following was TRUE according to the passage？A
A．The writer had some difficulty with her lunch because of the tough food and the cold．
B．The delicious food took the writer's attention away from Mrs．Bloomfield's words．
C．All the children were well educated before the writer came to the family．
D．All the children in the family were looked after by Mrs Bloomfield herself．
70．From the passage，we can infer thatC．
A．Mrs Bloomfield would treat the writer kindly and help her a lot
B．The youngest girl Harriet would be the writer's favourite student
C．the writer would take on more responsibilities than she should
D．Tom Bloomfield would be the cleverest of all the children．
