6.In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson Father taught me."There is more than one way to the square.Life is like that.If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road,try another."
I knew where I wanted to go in life.I wanted to be a fashion designer.And on the way to my first small success I found the road blocked.
I was busy getting ready to show my winter fashions.Then just 13days before the presentation the sewing girls were called out on strike.I found myself left with one tailor and woman who was in charge of the sewing room! I was as gloomy as my models and salesgirls."We'll never make it,"one of them cried.
Here,I thought,is the test of all tests for Father's advice.Where is the way out this time?I wondered and worried.I was certain we would have to call off the presentation or show the clothes unfinished.Then it dawned on me.Why not show the clothes unfinished?
We worked hurriedly.And,exactly 13days later,right on time,the Schiaparelli showing took place.
What a showing it was!Some coats had no sleeeeves; others had only one.Many of our clothes were still in an early stage.They were only patterns made of heavy cotton cloth.But on these we pinned sketches and pieces of material.In this way we were able to show that what colors and textures the clothes would have when they were finished.
All in all,the showing was different.Our unusual showing caught the attention of the public,and orders for the clothes poured in.
Father's wise words had guided me once again.There is more than one way to the square always.

45.The best title of the passage isC.
A.A Wise Father                     B.A fashion Designer
C.More Than One Way to the Square. D.An Unexpected Fashion Presentation

14.Imagine a school where there are no academic requirements,no curriculum,and no tests.Children have total contro1of their education and are free to do what they want all day,every day.Sudbury Valley School in Framingham,Massachusetts has been operating this way since 1968.More than 30schools worldwide have imitated the Sudbury model,and over 200schools identify similarly as"democratic schools."These schools are designed based on the belief that children have an innate curiosity to learn and do best when they direct their own learning.
Sudbury Vallev School admits anyone who wants to enroll(注册)between the ages of 4and 18.Many parents send their kids from a young age because they believe that kids do best when they learn what they want to learn.Other students come to Sudbury because they had various issues in traditional school systems including rebellion,learning difficulties,and  emotional problems.
Sudbury is administered through a democratic process where every student and staff member has an equal vote.In fact,students outnumber staff 20 to 1.There's no age  segregation(差别);four-year-olds can hang out with teenagers.Many staff members are part time and have rich careers as historians,businessmen,psychologists,artists,among others.
Learning is self-directed and occurs informally through having conversations,starting  projects.reading for enjoyment,and playing games.If students are interested in a particular topic,they work with staff and other students to organize courses and find resources.The  requirement for getting a high school diploma is to write an essay about how they are prepared t0be an adult.95%of students graduate.90%of graduates end up going to college,better than the national average of 66%.
Most graduates say that they benefited from a self-directed education because they were  more motivated than their peers,lacked fear of authority figures,and got a head start in their field of interest.They work hard at doing the things they love to do.

1.Hospitals not only treat infections-they can also cause them.
In the United States alone,the number of infections in hospitals is estimated at close to two million each year.About one hundred thousand patients die.
A new government report notes that very little progress has been made in reducing what are called health care-associated infections.The most common are infections of the urinary tract(尿路),surgical site and bloodstream.
Many infections have been increasing even as hospitals have made efforts to improve.About forty percent of all health care-associated infections are linked to the use of catheters.A tube is placed inside the body to collect urine(尿液),so the patient does not have to get out of bed.
But the latest report says urinary tract infections after surgery increased more than three and a half percent.It says catheters should be used only if necessary.
Another way to prevent infections is to give patients antibiotics before surgery.Doctors are advised to give them within the hour before the operation.Patients who get antibiotics earlier than one hour are more likely to get an infected surgical wound.Also,doctors are advised to discontinue the antibiotics within twenty-four hours after the surgery.The report says longer than that is usually not necessary.It can increase the risk of antibiotic resistance.
Kathleen Sebelius is secretary of health and human services.She noted that racial and ethnic minorities were less likely to have insurance and less likely to get the treatments they needed.She called the report numbers"troubling."
But she also said the health care reforms passed by Congress will improve the quality of care for all Americans.She said the new law will reward quality over quantity of care,creating a system that prevents diseases before more costly treatment is required.
49.What do we learn about healthcare-associated infections from this passage?C
A.It is a new disease that is discovered by American doctors.
B.It is not reported in other countries but the United States.
C.It is connected with what doctors do to treat their patients.
D.It is so deadly that it kills two million people every year.
50.In this passage antibiotics are used toB.
A.reduce pain                      B.prevent infections
C.shorten operation time              D.make patients sleep
51.From the last paragraph but one we know Kathleen Sebelius isA.
A.very optimistic about the situation
B.quite worried about the minorities
C.suffering from the infection herself
D.blaming doctors for their slow response 
52.What can be inferred from the passage?B
A.Antibiotics may be the most effective way to resist infection after surgery.
B.Some ethnic minorities without insurance are in need of basic treatments.
C.Hospitals are where infections are least likely to take place.
D.Hospitals have made great progress in reducing healthcare-associated infections.
