查看习题详情和答案>>Children are very, very observant and have excellent memories.
Around Christmas last year, we were heading to Grandma’s house. The drive was an hour long, so we had plenty of time to chat. We were waiting to get onto the freeway when my daughter Hayley noticed a homeless man, no sign in hand. “Mom, is that man homeless?” I told her I believed he was.
We got onto the freeway and drove away. But the chatting had stopped. Hayley was quiet all the way there. We spent a few hours at Grandma’s then packed up to head home. As we drove back, Hayley rustled(沙沙作响地移动) around in her seat, trying to reach something on the floor of the car. I asked her to sit still, worried her seatbelt would slip from the booster seat. She mumbled(咕哝)something and sat back.
“Mom, will the homeless man still be outside tonight?” I told her I was not sure, maybe. It was a freezing night, and I started to think of the man now too, and how cold he must be.
All of a sudden, as we got onto the freeway exit, Haley shrieked (尖叫): “There he is! There he is!” and started rolling down her window. “Mom, I found these gloves and scarf back here. Can I give them to him? Can I?” she asked.
I pulled over to the edge of the road, and beckoned(招手示意) the man to come over. Haley smiled at him and handed him her gift. I looked in the front passenger seat, loaded with leftovers from Grandma’s house, and handed those out to him as well.
The man thanked us, he clutched (抓紧) my hand in his and I could feel the bitter cold of them. We wished him a safe night and continued on our journey to our warm home.
“Haley, that was very sweet of you!” I told her. “Well, they were your gloves and scarf, Mom, but his hands looked colder, and he has to keep looking for his house!”
We had talked about homelessness before , and I could hear myself telling her: “Someone who has lost their home.” She had taken my words literally and thought the man’s home was like a lost puppy.
On the ride home, and as I carried my sleeping angel into the house that night, my heart filled with gratitude.

During the summer you should be even more careful than usual of the foods you prepare.Foods go bad faster in hot weather than in cold weather.When you are shopping buy frozen and refrigerated foods.Don’t make long stops on the way home, because frozen foods could become soft or warm.Using insulated bags helps keep food could until you can get home, milk and milk products should be refrigerated immediately.When camping or picnicing, or at any time when refrigeration can’t be made use of, use special dry foods.Don’t leave foods in a hot car or beach bag.Picnic favorites like meat, chicken, and egg salad should be kept in a cooler.Above all, if the food doesn’t seem to be normal in odor or appearance, throw it away immediately.Don’t taste it.
Red roses were her favorites; her name was also Rose. And every year her husband sent them, tied with pretty bows. The year he died, the roses were delivered to her door. The card said, “Be my Valentine(情人),” like all the years before.
Each year he sent her roses, and the note would always say, “I love you even more this year, than last year on this day. My love for you will always grow, with every passing year.” She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear. She thought, he ordered roses in advance before this day. Her loving husband did not know that he would pass away. He always liked to do things early. Then, if he got too busy, everything would work out fine. She cut away some stems, placed them in a very special vase, and set the vase beside the picture of his smiling face. She would sit for hours in her husband’s favorite chair, staring at his photo and the roses sitting there.
A year went by, and it was hard to live without her mate. Loneliness and solitude had become her fate. Then, the very hour, as on Valentine’s Day before, the doorbell rang, and there were roses, sitting by her door. She brought the roses in, and just looked at them in shock. Then, she went to get the telephone to call the florist(花匠)shop. The owner answered, and she asked him, if he would explain why someone would do this to her, causing her such pain.
“I know your husband passed away, more than a year ago,” the owner said, “I knew you'd call, and you would want to know. The flowers you received today were paid for in advance. Your husband always planned ahead. He left nothing to chance.”
“There is a standing order that I have on file down here. And he has paid, well in advance; you'll get them every year. There is also another thing that I think you should know. He wrote a special little card ... he did this years ago.” “Then, should ever, I find out that he's no longer here. That’s the card ... that should be sent to you the following year.” She thanked him and hung up the phone, her tears now flowing hard. Her fingers shaking, she slowly reached to get the card. Inside the card, she saw that he had written her a note. Then, as she stared in total silence, this is what he wrote: “Hello my love, I know it’s been a year since I was gone. I hope it hasn’t been too hard for you to overcome. I know it must be lonely, and the pain is very real. If it was the other way, I know how I would feel. The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life. I loved you more than words can say. You were the perfect wife.”
“You were my friend and lover; you satisfied my every need. I know it’s only been a year, but please try not to grieve. I want you to be happy, even when you shed your tears. That is why the roses will be sent to you for years.”
“When you get these roses, think of all the happiness that we had together, and how both of us were blessed. I have always loved you and I know I always will. But, my love, you must go on; you have some living still.”
“Please ... try to find happiness, while living out your days. I know it is not easy, but I hope you find some ways. The roses will come every year, and they will only stop when your door’s not answered, when the florist stops to knock. He will come five times that day, in case you have gone out. But after his last visit, he will know without a doubt. To take the roses to the place, where I’ve instructed him, and place them where we are, together once again.”
69. How did Rose feel when she received roses a year after her husband’s death?
A. Puzzled and disappointed. B. Sad and surprised
C. Proud but frightened. D. Happy but confused.
70. What can we know about Rose's husband when he was alive?

You’d think by now that everyone would be aware of the dangers of cigarette smoking.So why are more women lighting up?
Since 1980, some 3 million women have died of smoking-related illnesses.A new study reports women now account for 39 percent of all smoking-related deaths, a figure that has more than doubled since 1965.
In the early decades smoking was mainly popular among men, and it took nearly 25 years before the gap narrowed and smoking became quite common among women.
Nearly all women who smoke picked up the habit as teenagers-and 30 percent of today’s high school seniors smoke.Dr Thompson says, “We must begin this battle in schools before girls even begin to smoke.We must share with teenage girls that smoking is really harmful.”
18.How many women died of smoking-related illnesses since 1980?
A.About 3 million.
B.About 2 million.
C.About 6 million.
19.What can be inferred from the talk?
A.More and more women start smoking.
B.The number of male smokers is decreasing.
C.Smoking-related illness is one of the major threats to women.
20.When did most of women smokers pick up the habit of smoking?
A.When they entered high school.
B.Soon after they graduate from high school.
C.When they were teenagers.
