13.Dear Mrs.Nugget,
You may remember that we have discussed the noise your children make while practicing the piano.You agreed to make sure that they would stop practicing in the evenings.
You can imagine my astonishment(惊讶),then,when I realized that nothing had changed and the situation was going on as before.I find it difficult to stay in the house and invent any excuse to go out for the evening to be away from the terrible noise.Though I like music very much,I have had enough,and to be honest,I am not prepared toput up with the situation any more.

14.Watching the Northern Lights shining on the sky's natural canvas may be on your list already,but be prepared to up the money.
A developer is creating a floating,snowflaked-shaped glass hotel from which guests can stare in fear at the Northern Lights from their beds.The project is called Krystall.Eighty-six luxury rooms will be covered within a glass structure alongside conference rooms and a spa(温泉),all of which is only accessible by boat.
The stationary (静止的) hotel will be built near in northern Norway reportedly between bays.It will be constructed,in pieces,in dry docks,before being fit together on location.
Explaining the physics and design of the hotel,Kone Olthuis,Dutch architect and founder of Waterstudio,a specialist in floating structures,said:"The floating base is very big and because of that also very stable.You will not notice any movement.Different to any vessel (舰)this hotel is a floating building and will not move.The shape provides most of the stability but cables are used to take away any speed."
"Same look and feel as a land based hotel but then on the most beautiful spot on the water.The hotel is not connected to land so all the things will be provided by boats."
According to Mr Olthuis,who wouldn't tell the actual cost of the project,the budget is 15per cent more than it would have been if it were built on land.He said that an important thing to the hotel's construction was for its creation to be"scarless"on the perfect environment surrounding it.
"We call it a scarless development.If you take it away after a hundred years or so it will not leave any physical footprint.That is the only way to bring developments to such a valuable and beautiful marine environment in Norway."
It is hoped that the hotel will be"self-supporting sustainable"using top of the range technology,helping to support the"growing eco-tourism market."
"Dutch Docklands has learned to live with the water instead of fighting it,"the firm states."Floating houses are common in the Netherlands but we took that technology abroad and scale it up in size."

68.What do we know about Krystall?B
A.It is built as a whole at a time
B.It is designed for enjoying the Northern Lights.
C.It can float here and there stably.
D.It is constructed with glass for every room.
69.According to Mr Olthuis,what concerns most about the hotel isD.
A.how to keep it existing for hundred years
B.how to cause no damage to each piece
C.how to build it with a lot less money
D.how to make it environmentally friendly

15.It was unusually quiet in the emergency room on December 25.I didn't think there would be any patients,sighing about having to work on Christmas.Just then five people showed up at my desk,a pale woman and four small children.
"Are you all sick?"I asked doubtfully.
"Yes."she said weakly and lowered her head.
But when it came to descriptions of their presenting problems,things got a little puzzling.Two of the children had headaches,but the headaches weren't accompanied by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still.Two children had earaches,but only one could tell me which ear was affected.The mother complained of a cough but seemed to work to produce it.
Something was wrong,but I didn't say anything but explained that it might be a little while before a doctor saw her.She responded."Take your time;it's warm here."
I checked the chart after the admitting clerk had finished registering the family.No address---they Were homeless.The waiting room was warm.
I looked out at the family sitting close to each other by the Christmas tree.The little one was pointing at the television and the oldest one was looking at the decorations on the Christmas tree.
I went back to the nurses'station and mentioned we had a homeless family in the waiting room.The nurses,complaining about working on Christmas,turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get warm on Christmas.The team went into action,much as we do when there's a medical emergency.Only this one was a Christmas emergency.
We were all offered a free meal in the hospital cafeteria on Christmas Day,so we fetched that meal and prepared a large meal for our Christmas guests.Our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas Day.
Later,as the family walked to the door to leave,the four-year-old came running back,gave me a hug and whispered,"Thanks for being our angels today."
56.From the descriptions of the family's presenting problems,the writer learned thatC.
