Here is an astonishing and significant fact: Mental work alone can’t make us tire. It sounds absurd. But a years ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (疲劳). To the amazement of these scientists, they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素) and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.

So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brain is totally tireless. So what makes us tired?

Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional(情绪的) attitudes. One of England’s most outstanding scientists, J.A. Hadfield, says, “The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr. Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further. He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”

What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciated---those are the emotions that tire sitting workers. Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.

1. What surprised the scientists a few years ago?

A. Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer’s blood.

B. Albert Einstein didn’t feel worn after a day’s work.

C. The brain could work for many hours without fatigue.

D. A mental worker’s blood was filled with fatigue toxins.

2.According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?

A. Challenging mental work. B. Unpleasant emotions.

C. Endless tasks. D. Physical labor.

3.What’s the author’s attitude towards the scientists’ idea?

A. He agrees with them. B. He doubts them.

C. He argues against them. D. He hesitates to accept them.

4. We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to ___________.

A. have some good food. B. enjoy their work

C. exercise regularly D. discover fatigue toxins

When Carol was diagnosed, her cancer had 21 to her bones. We calmly talked about what to expect. I reviewed choices for 22 and printed out new research. But 23 , I cried and struggled. Only half the patients are alive two years after diagnosis.

Carol began treatment afterwards. She felt almost 24 and went right back to work. Carol hates the idea of being 25 as a “sick” person. She likes her life 26 . Last winter, Carol suddenly found 27 difficult to swallow. She slept a lot and was slow to wake in the morning. There was continuous pressure in her chest and 28 I saw her looking thoughtful. One day, she told me, “I think I 29 never leave the hospital,” she continued, “I just want to enjoy the little things--- 30 is out of the window.” We had never spoken of that before. 31 we began an African safari, a trip she had dreamed of for years.

Morning and afternoon, we went diving and rolled into the clear water 32 down like peas in honey. In the evenings, we spent time on the pier, watching the sun set. One of the young couples on the island wondered if we were sisters. We laughed. “Friends for 34 years,” I said. I could see by their 33 that they didn’t really understand that kind of time. We have been friends 34 than they have been alive.

35 dives, we talked about where to go next. I made lists 36 she slept. Our plans were now more theoretical, and the big trip to the South Pacific one day seemed a long way off. Cancer has become part of our 37 . We are well aware that our bodies are temporary gifts. Not knowing what comes next means 38 is possible. Perhaps I will be hit by a truck, or my heart will stop. Life is 39 .

We took our last dive of the trip. When we reached the deep blue water, we spread our arm out like wings and pretended to 40 .

It was a beautiful Sunday morning, and Maggie and I were returning from our walk through the woods．We were only a couple of blocks from home when I spotted a cell phone and a credit card sitting on the road．We took them home．We always find amazing things on the street and she looks upon them as a movable feast-a chicken wing here or a barbecue rib （肋骨）there．

I found another cell phone a few years back, too, and called a number in its phone book．I explained the situation to the guy who answered．He said it was his sister's and that he'd come to pick it up, which he did．

And that was that．No verbal thank-you, no written thank-you, no “here's a box of chocolates” thank-you．

I didn't have time to call anyone on my latest found cell phone．I was pouring myself coffee when it started to shake and dance across the kitchen counter．

“Who's this?” someone asked when I picked up．

“Who's this?” I countered（反问）．“Sarah?”

She was surprised at my knowing her name until she realized her name was on the credit card．“Could you send them to me?” she asked．

She lives in Arlington, which is 2 miles from my house．

“Hmm, no, ”I replied, adding that I thought she could come to get them, and that if I wasn't at home, they would be in my mailbox．

A day later, when I was out for a run, someone got them back．There wasn't even a piece of paper put in the mailbox with “Thanks” on it．In this age of e-mail and cell phone, there's really no excuse．Years ago, I found something more precious than a $100 bill on the street：a driver's license．I saw that its owner lived a couple of blocks from me, so I called him up．He asked whether I could slip the license through his front door．

“I guess I could, ”I replied．

And that was that．
