"Some secrets are hidden from health," wrote John Updike in his poem "Fever".
I have experienced the truth of Updike's observation. My excellent health kept me from seeing some things—things that became secrets of sort.
One relates to my son Chris. When I lost my health in March, I discovered something I had missed about him.
Christopher has been a scholar and athlete through high school. He has behaved responsibly, engaged in community service. He has had an impressive peer group of serious students.
While I saw these things, I had missed before what I experienced while in hospital. Early on, Christopher offered the clearest and most forceful words about my need to be positive and to fight acute leukemia(急性白血病). He never left the room after a visit without making me promise that I would be mentally tough and positive.
During the first week, he showed his own mental toughness, researching leukemia and learning what the chances were. He even stopped my doctor outside the room, introduced himself and asked directly what he thought of my chances. He processed the answer without overreaction.
Christopher did admonish(劝告) me against my choice of words the first week at home. I had moved back into my room from weighing myself, discovering a thin figure I did not know. I announced to him and my wife, “dead man walking”. I thought it was a way to lighten the obvious. He saw it as negativity and was strongly against such thinking and talking.
When I resisted taking medicine sometimes, Christopher formed a “good-cop-bad-cop” team with his mother. Betsy gently and patiently encouraged. He directly and forcefully insisted. He always made the logical arguments for why I needed to take some awful pills.
My health had hidden something from me; my ill-health helped me to see it.
（1）What did Christopher do when the author was in hospital?
A.He told the author not to say anything wrong.
B.He offered some suggestions to the doctor.
C.He always encouraged the author to be confident.
D.He tried to get help from community service.
（2）What does “good-cop-bad-cop” in the text refer to?
A.A trick to force the author to obey.
B.A measure to keep the author happy.
C.A friendly way to make the author see what was good for him.
D.A joint effort to persuade the author both kindly and forcefully.
（3）What may be the best title for the text?
A.Lessons from Ill-health
B.Unexpected Love
C.Secrets Hidden from Health
D.Discovery Made in Hospital

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
In the early morning, I head for the back door and find 10 inches of snow covering our home. Oh no, Bryan will have to clear the roof again, I think. But Rio rolls onto his back, playing in the white snow and kicking his back legs, delighted. His days in an animal shelter in New Mexico are long forgotten—he's wholeheartedly enjoyed life as a Colorado dog.
Rio needs a walk. I've planned to attend an emergent webinar, but my husband is busy clearing. Rio pushes my leg with his snout(口鼻部), wondering why we are still inside. We're late for our morning hike. I pull on my boots reluctantly. I don't have time for this!
Rio and I walk a block through our neighborhood to the beginning of a road. Rio jumps happily into the snow, which is up to his neck. But I walk slowly with heavy steps, worrying about my to-do list, and I don't notice the world around me until Rio starts barking.
A squirrel (松鼠) chitters at him from a high branch of a pine tree. We haven't seen a squirrel in at least a week because of all the snow storms, so this is a treat for us.
Once again, my animal teacher is reminding me to enjoy the present moment, and I'm grateful. I take a deep breath and look around. Suddenly there is an explosion(爆炸) of snow. a nearby tree has released its heavy burden, snapping(迅速恢复) back upright. Silver snowflakes(雪花) dust the air around me as a group of birds flees the area, talking to one another as they fly overhead.
I watch and listen in wonder for what seems like a full minute. There will be 1440 munites on this day, but this is the one I'll remember most. Then I look back to the earth and there is my sweet dog, waiting patiently for a treat. He knows I'll want to celebrate this moment we've just shared. “I love you, Rio!” I say as I give him a cookie. He has trained me well!
When we walk home, I smile broadly, spirit washed clean, ready for whatever the day may bring.

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Although people value intelligence—understanding, reasoning, the ability to learn—they also respect wisdom, or the knowledge and experience that they gain over a lifetime. In some ways, wisdom is like beauty: we value it, we desire it, we know it when we see it, but it is nearly impossible to pin down such a nice quality. 【1】

1. Working at being social.

Studies show that people who stay connected to others show higher levels of wisdom than those who remain alone. 【2】 Next time you’re at a party or gathering, single out someone who’s standing alone; and strike up a conversation.

2. 【3】

Wisdom involves being able to understand all sides of an issue without letting personal feelings gel in the way. Owning your mind means realizing that everyone has a life story that influences their actions. During the course of every day, make a note of the issues that annoy you, and take a moment to see them from the other side.

3. Learning how to say “I could be wrong”.

A wise person understands that it is impossible to know everything and that life is likely to take unexpected turns. 【4】 Admitting that there are times when you could be mistaken will go a long way in strengthening your fame.

4. Reading the news.

【5】 If you don’t already read a daily paper or news online, start by going through a single front-page article from a major respected news source.

Almost everyone has the potential to become wiser, particularly if you strengthen these habits.

A. Practicing being open-minded.

B. Sharing good news with your friends.

C. But researchers have tried and here’s what they’ve found.

D. Recognizing your errors can lead only to even greater wisdom.

E. Make an effort to join a new club, or invite an old friend for coffee.

F. You do not have to admit your mistakes if you are really unwilling to.

G. You cannot make balanced choices unless you understand world circumstances.

【题目】根据短文内容的理解，选择正确答案。 For many people. Leisure time is an opportunity to get outdoors, have some fun and meet interesting people. Add two pieces of advanced 21st century technology—global positioning system (GPS) devices and the Internet—to get "geocaching".
The word geocaching comes from "geo" (earth) and "cache" (hidden storage). Geocachers log onto a website to find information about the location of a cache—usually a waterproof plastic box containing small items such as toys and CDs—along with a notebook where "finders" can enter comments and learn about the cache "owner", the person who created and hid the cache. Finders may take any of the items in the cache but are expected to replace them with something of similar value. They then visit the website again and write a message to the owner.
Geocaching became possible on May 1,2000, when a satellite system developed by the U.S. Department of Defense was made public. Using an inexpensive GPS device, anyone on earth can send a signal to the satellites and receive information about their position. This is basically a high-tech version of orienteering, the traditional pastime which uses maps and compasses instead of GPS to determine one's location.
Geocachers are a very considerate group. Owners carefully choose a cache's location to give finders an enjoyable experience, such as a beautiful view or a good campsite. They also consider the environmental impact of their cache since it could result in an increased number of visitors to an area. As for the content of the caches, owners and finders must only use items that are suitable for the whole family, as caches are found by geocachers of all ages.
（1）According to the passage, geocaching is _______.
A.an outdoor leisure activity
B.a new type of technology
C.a game used to teach geography
D.a program to protect environment
（2）How can finders learn about the cache owners?
A.By meeting them.
B.By going to a website.
C.From the notebook.
D.From the satellite.
（3）Which of the following is NOT used in geocaching?
A.A GPS device.
B.A compass.
C.A plastic container.
D.The Internet.
（4）Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Most geocachers are adults.
B.Any item can be placed in the caches.
C.The caches should be put in a remote place.
D.Geocachers try to avoid damaging the environment.

【题目】根据短文内容的理解，选择正确答案。 Art is considered by many people to be no more than a decorative means of giving pleasure. This is not always the case, however, at times, art may be seen to have a purely functional side as well. Such could be said of the sandpaintings of the Navaho Indians of the American Southwest; these have a medicinal as well as an artistic purpose.
According to Navaho traditions, one who suffers from either a mental or a physical illness has in some way disturbed or get in touch with the supernatural—perhaps a certain animal, a ghost, or the dead. To break away from this, the ill person or one of his relatives will employ a medical man called a "singer" to perform a curing ceremony which will attract a powerful supernatural being. During the ceremony, which may last from 2 to 9 days, the "singer" will produce a sandpainting on the floor. On the last day of the ceremony, the patient will sit on this sandpainting and the "singer" will rub the sick or injured parts of the patient's body with sand from a specific figure in the sandpainting. In this way the patient absorbs the power of that particular supernatural being and becomes strong. After the ceremony, the sandpainting is destroyed so its power won't harm anyone.
The art of sandpainting is handed down from old "singers". The materials used are easily found where the Navaho settle: brown, red, yellow, and white sandstone, which is ground（研磨）much as corn is made into flour. The "singer" holds a small amount of this sand in his hand and lets it flow between his fingers onto a clean, flat surface on the floor, with a steady hand and great patience. He is thus able to create designs of stylized people, snakes and other creatures that have power in the Navaho belief system. The traditional Navaho doesn't allow copying sandpaintings, since he believes the supernatural powers that taught him the craft have forbidden this; however, such reproductions can in fact be purchased today in tourist shops in Arizona and New Mexico. These are done by either Navaho Indians or by other people who wish to preserve this craft.
（1）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Navaho Indian
B.The Ancient "Singer"
C.Functions of Art
D.The Navaho Sandpaintings
（2）How did the "singer" treat the patient according to the passage?
A.By passing his supernatural power on to the patient.
B.By applying a magic substance to the patient's body.
C.By rubbing the patient's sick parts with sand from a sandpainting figure.
D.By destroying the sandpainting figure.
（3）The traditional Navsho does not allow copying of sandpaintings because .
A.anything copied has no effect
B.the craft only belongs to the supernatural
C.it's against Navaho belief system
D.the copying may do harm to other Navahos
（4）That the reproductions of sandpaintings are now commercially available shows .
A.people have realized the artistic value of sandpaintings
B.patients have benefited from the powerful effect of sandpaintings
C.more people have come to believe in supernatural power
D.modern technology has helped the production of sandpaintings
