题目内容

　　One day a lawyer's wife fell ill, and he went to get a doctor. The doctor willingly came to see the woman and to do what he could for her, but before he went into the house, he made a short stop. He knew that the lawyer was famous for not paying his bills, even if they were due (应付费用) . He therefore said to the man. “But if I save your wife, I am afraid you may not pay me.”

　　“Sir,” replied the lawyer. “Here I have $ 500, whether you cure my wife or you kill her. I'll give all this.”

　　The doctor was reassured (使消除疑虑) and went into the house. When he reached the woman's bedside, it soon became clear to him that he could do little. She was seriously ill, and though he prescribed (开药方) her medicine, she soon died.

　　He told the lawyer he was very sorry, and then asked for the money which he had promised. “Did you kill my wife?” asked the lawyer. “of course I didn't,” said the doctor. “Well! Did you cure my wife?” “I'm afraid that was impossible,” replied the doctor. “Well, then since you neither killed my wife nor cured her, I have nothing to pay you.”

He raised(抚养)six children by himself 26 his wife died during the birth of their 27 child. Dodd thought there needed to be a day to honour great and loving dads.

As we all know, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places we can’t see fish 　26 in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink.

Recently, a new lifestyle called low carbon life is 　27 every comer of our country. The meanings of low carbon are 　28 energy and no waste. It is such an important project that I can’t wait 29 my ideas on how to promote it.

First，we should 　30 a no-car day every week in our school. Because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy. 　31 the no-car day, neither students 　32 teachers are allowed to drive to school. At the same time，just walk or run. Use our 　33 and enjoy the fun.

Second, we had better not use plastic bags 　34 . No one can stand the “white pollution”，　35 it is wise to use cloth bags which can 　36 again and again.

37 ，one thing 　38 we should keep in mind is that every big thing comes from the small details. So, as students, we ought to turn 　39 the lights the moment we leave, use 40 sides of the paper, and reuse our textbooks and so on.

All in all, it weighs greatly for all of us to put the low carbon lifestyle into practice. Just set our mind to these：no-car days, no plastic bags, and no waste. Let’s do it now.
