The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My belief began when I was just a kid, who 36 becoming a doctor.
My mother was a domestic（佣人）. Through her work, she observed that 37 people spent a lot more time reading than they 38 watching television. She announces that my brother and I 39 watch two to three pre-selected programs during the week. With our 40 time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and 41 written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a 42 . My mother was illiterate（文盲）.
When I entered high school, I was a 43 student, but not for long. I began to like fancy clothes. I wanted to 44 other guys. I went from an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from her various jobs and I 45 about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, “Okay, I’ll give you all the money I 46 this week scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy the family food and pay the bills. With the money 47 , you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very 48 with that arrangement but once I got through allocating（分配）money, there was 49 left. I realized my mother was a financial genius（金融天才）to be able to keep the roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, let alone buy 50 . I really realized my desire wasn’t going to get me 51 . Success requires intellectual preparation. I went back to my 52 and became an A-student again and eventually I 53 my dream and I became a doctor.
My story is really my mother’s story—a woman with 54 formal education who used her position as a parent to change the lives of her children. There is no job 55 than parenting. This I believe.

It is only during the last few years that man has generally realized that in the world of nature a balance exists between all forms of life. No living thing can exist by itself. It is part of a system in which all forms of life are joined together. If we change one part of the nature order, this will almost certainly bring about changes in some other parts.
The cutting of forests reduced the supply of oxygen. The killing of weeds and insects by chemicals led to the wide-spread poisoning of animals and birds. The throwing of waste products into the ocean hurt life in the sea, while waste gases changed the chemical balance of the atmosphere and shut out some of the sun’s necessary life-giving rays.
And so we could go on adding more examples until in despair(绝望) we might feel like giving up the struggle to control these harmful human activities. Man is very clever at changing the world around him to satisfy his immediate needs, but he is not so clever at looking far ahead, or at thinking about what the future results of his action might be. Man may well destroy himself because of his silly action.
1.The first paragraph tells us that _____.
|
A．all living things in nature depend on each other |
|
B．everything in nature can’t exist without the help of man |
|
C．man has known the importance of the balance of nature for a long time |
|
D．no living thing can live naturally |
2.In the second paragraph the examples given are used to prove that _____.
|
A．all forms of life belong to a system in which all the parts can be changed for one another |
|
B．it is only during the last few years that man has generally known the balance of nature |
|
C．there are some living things which can exist by themselves without change |
|
D．we can’t change one form of life without destroying the balance of nature |
3.The last paragraph suggests that in order to get his immediate benefits(利益) _____.
|
A．man is always anxious to control his activities within limits |
|
B．man is always too eager in planning for distant future |
|
C．man often fails to think about their future results of his action |
|
D．man often feels that he will have to give up in despair |
4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
|
A．Cutting down woods does little harm to human beings. |
|
B．Man has to pay much more attention to the future results of his present action. |
|
C．Oxygen comes from forests. |
|
D．The passage tells us to try our best to get as much as possible immediately. |
