Can you imagine being savagely attacked by a dog? What if the attack was so severe that your nose, lips and chin were completely destroyed? How would you feel about yourself? Would you be able to look at yourself in the mirror? And how do you think other people would treat you?

Isabelle Dinoire is someone who can answer all of these questions honestly and openly.

Last November Isabelle was attacked and mauled by her own dog. The attack was so severe that her lower face was damaged; it seemed, almost beyond repair. She was rushed to hospital and became the first person ever to have a face transplant.

With such severe injuries doctors offered Isabelle little hope that they would be able to repair the damage to her face using conventional surgery.

Shortly after being admitted, she came to the attention of Dr Bernard Devauchelle who, unlike other surgeons, believed there was an alternative: "We found ourselves saying, yes, it's clear this woman needs a transplant," he said.

Two days after the operation she saw her face in the mirror for the first time. She said "I was scared to look at myself, but when I did it was already marvelous and I couldn't believe it. I thought it would be blue and swollen but it was already beautiful."

Now, less than a year after her 15 hour operation, she’s trying to rebuild her life and there is no doubt how she feels about her new face: "I have been saved. Lots of people write saying that I need to go on, that it's wonderful. It's a miracle somehow."

Although there were ethical questions raised about their decision to carry out the procedure, the doctors who operated on Isabelle are quick to defend their decision.

One of them said "Was it possible for her to live without a face? It's easy to say we shouldn't have done the operation, but her life has changed, she goes shopping, goes on holiday, she lives again."

What would be the best title of the passage?

A. The first face transplant B. A successful face operation

C. The most severe damaged face D. The breakthrough of surgery

The writer uses the five questions at the beginning of the passage to ___________________.

A. tell the story about Isabelle Dinoire B. show a severe face damage event

C. draw the readers’ attention to the topic D. invite the readers to answer them

A. she was too shocked to see herself in the mirror

B. she was satisfied with the result of the operation

C. she thought her damaged face couldn’t be repaired

D.she looked more beautiful than before

According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. It seemed that it was impossible to recover Isabelle’s face using face transplant

B. After operation Isabelle thought she looked beautiful and rebuilt her life again

C. Some doctors had no better idea to repair the damage to Isabelle’s face

Dear Mr. Johnson,

I’ve learned from a newspaper that some clerks are wanting in your company. I am

eager to being one of them. So I am writing the letter. My name is zhang Hua. I was

born in the Hebei Province and I am in good health. I’ve just graduated in the Computer

Department of Wuhan University. I did very good in all subjects and I am especial good

at computer studies and English. I can read science books in English and doing some

writing in English as well. Beside, I know a little French. And in my spare time, I enjoy

playing basketball. As is said that your company is very famous and I’ll very glad if you

let me work for it. My telephone number is 027-89276628．I am looking forward to

hearing from you soon.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Motherhood is a career to respect

　　A WOMAN renewing her driver’s license at the CountyClerk’s office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.

　　“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a...”

　　“Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”

　　“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation... ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.

　　One day I found myself in the same situation. The Clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.

　　The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate (研究员) in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”

　　The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.

　　I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement (声明) was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.

　　“Might I ask,” said the clerk with interest, “just what you do in your field?”

　　Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the laboratory and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”

　　There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.

　　As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (激励) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants – ages 13, 7, and 3.

　　Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6-month-old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.

　　I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”

　　Motherhood... What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.

How did the female clerk feel at first when the writer told her occupation?

　　A. Cold-hearted.　　　　B. Open-minded.

　　C. Puzzled. 　　　　　　D. Interested.

How many children does the writer have?

　　A. 3　　　 B. 4 　　　C. 7　　　 D. 13

Why did the woman clerk show more respect to the writer?

　　A. Because she thought the writer did admirable work.

　　B. Because the writer cared little about rewards.

　　C. Because the writer did something that she had little knowledge of.

　　D. Because she admired the writer's research work.

What is the point of the article?

　　A. To show that how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.

　　B. To show that the writer had a grander job than Emily.

　　C. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career.

　　D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.

When my first wartime Christmas came, I was in basic training in New Jersey and not sure if I could make it home for the holidays. Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have three-day passes (通行证) posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers.

It was Christmas Eve when I arrived, and a light snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beyond her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights, all colors, and ornaments (装饰物) shining against the green of a pine.

“Where did it come from？” I asked.

“I asked the Gates boy to cut it,” my mother said. “I wouldn’t have had one just for myself, but when you called--- oh, such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon…”

The pine reached to the proper height, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Krystal Star was in its place. A few green branches reached about a little awkwardly (不够美观地) at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with pleasant smell of Christmas.

“It’s not like the ones you used to find,” my mother went on. “Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didn’t know where to look. But I couldn’t be picky.”

“Don’t worry, ” I told her. “It’s perfect.”

It wasn’t, of course, but at the moment I realized something for the first time: all Christmas trees are perfect.

A. the writer spent his Christmas during the war

When the writer got home, ________.

A. it was December 23

B. it was snowing heavily

C. he found a Christmas tree in the living room

D. the Gates boy was cutting a Christmas tree for his mother

From the passage, we can conclude that ________.

A. the writer used to cut very beautiful Christmas trees

B. his mother didn’t like perfect trees

C. his mother didn’t want to have a tree

D. the writer wouldn’t have a tree cut by someone else

“All Christmas trees are perfect”, because they can remind you of ________.

A. the wartime B. the green of a pine C. the pleasant smell D. the sweet home

The best title for this passage would be “________”.

A. How to Choose a Christmas Tree B. How Soldiers Spent Christmas

C. The Perfect Christmas Tree D. The Christmas Without a Tree
