【题目】Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doyle’s husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard from again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.

Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and, without so much as a note or a good-bye, close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them. Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home — the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.

To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and self-confidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.

Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive. “It’s typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people’s pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty.”

【1】Eileen Doyle reacted that way after her husband’s leaving, because she__________.

A. failed to hear from him for a long time

B. had no idea what was wrong with their family life

C. blamed herself for something wrong she did

D. wondered why her husband took up all their children

【2】According to the passage, those people left their families behind for the following reasons except_________.

A. they couldn’t bear their spouse (配偶)

B. they were afraid of the burden of debts

C. they wanted to forget the past completely

D. they wanted to start a new life somewhere else

【3】 The man or woman left behind with an unfinished marriage usually ________.

A. admits their responsibility for the situation

B. feels embarrassed and useless

C. will have no legal marriage life for seven years

D. wishes the person who has left were dead

【4】Some people would even prefer the death to the running away of their spouse because ________.

A. their spouse would feel greatly relieved

B. their spouse would feel no pain during the death

C. their spouse’s death would contribute to them starting a fresh life

D. their spouse’s death would not bring a feeling of rejection or failure

【5】What’s the author’s attitude towards the departures of this kind?

A. Objective. B. Supportive.

C. Negative. D. Positive.

【题目】Florence Nightingale was born in a rich family. When she was young she took lessons in music and drawing, and read great books. She also traveled a great deal with her mother and father.

As a child she felt that visiting sick people was both a duty and a pleasure. She enjoyed helping them.

At last mind was made up. “I’m going to be a nurse,” she decided.

“Nursing isn’t the right work for a lady,” her father told her.

“Then I will make it so”, she smiled. And she went to learn nursing in Germany and France.

When she returned to England, Florence started a nursing home. During the Crimean War in 1854 she went with a group of thirty eight nurses to the front hospitals. What they saw there was terrible. Dirt and death were everywhere to be seen — and smelled. The officer there did not want any woman to tell him how to run a hospital, either. But the brave nurse went to work.

Florence used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes, beds, medicine and food for the men. Her only pay was in smiles from the lips of dying soldiers. But they were more than enough for this kind woman.

After she returned to England, she was honored for her services by Queen Victoria. But Florence said that her work had just begun. She raised money to build the Nightingale Home for Nurses in London. She also wrote a book on public health, which was printed in several countries.

Florence Nightingale died at the age of ninety, still trying to serve others through her work as a nurse. Indeed, it is because of her that we honor nurses today.

Every child has his own dream. Every child hopes to be an adult. All of them think it is a good thing to grow up, However, is it truly like what they imagine? As a boy who lives in modern times, I still clearly remember the happiness of my childhood. What a good time we had! We didn’t need to study all the time and our task was to play. We had no worries. Unluckily, we had to face the reality following time’s passing. We began to gradually feel this invisible pressure coming upon us. We had less spare time for playing and had to give more of our time for homework. Our stress was coming! We get up before sunrise and return after sunset. We work and study like an adult, even harder. What we do is in order to get an excellent mark. Oh, growing up is extremely boring. Perhaps each child will have or has had the stress of growing up; the most important thing for us to solve our worries. We must try to find happiness while growing up so that we can get a balance.

A young man called LowCarbon Brother become a hit on the Internet in 2011. He is still active in protecting the environment. He suggests living a lowcarbon life, which means using less energy in our daily life so that we can help reducing carbon dioxide in the air. For example, she always picks up some waste paper on the street or uses the blank side to write something. While he is watching TV, he always turns up the screen brightness to the minimum and turns off the light. Therefore, he goes to work by bike instead of driving. Some people think what he is doing is just a show. No one can live such a simply life with so many modern invention around us. As far as I am concerned, I am strongly in support his idea and his behavior. Although what he is doing has no huge effect on global warming, but he at least can enjoy a healthy life.
