     My mother is a diligent and kind woman. She is very busy from morning till night. As a
teacher, she works hard.    1    Both my brother and I love her dearly as she loves us.

them with patience and teaches them well. For her excellent quality and very good teaching
results, she has been elected as a model teacher several times.

sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture, and putting everything in
good order. She seems to be busy all the time. As she has been very busy working every day,

     John Hunter had three advantages.He had a brother who was a doctor and he thus able
to learn about diseases and their effects.His natural curiosity led him to observe and study
the lives of wild animals in the countryside and he had strong and skillful hands,so essential
to a surgeon.In fact he became in a short time so famous that he was asked to lecture,but
John preferred the practical work of the surgeon.
     Soon after becoming a surgeon Hunter joined the army.He learnt a great deal from his
experience of dealing with soldiers' wounds.In particular,he studied how to prevent a wounded
man from bleeding too much,learning thereby how the nerve system functioned in the bodies
of animals and humans.But there were many things he did not know about and which could
only be learnt by dissection.And this posed a problem.
     The Christian church whose authority was complete on many matters opposed on dissection.
Cutting up dead animals to find out about their organs,and how these functioned was thought a
disgusting thing to do,and to cut up a human body,even though dead,was thought to be evil.
Surgeons had to pay grave diggers to steal bodies for dissection.Hunter once paid $7000 for
the body of an eight-foot Irishman whose skeleton can still be seen in the Royal College of
surgeon's museum.To be a surgeon was thought so inferior an occupation that many operations
were carried out by barbers.
     But Hunter continued with his experiments,at the time learning more about how our bodies
worked,and he found new ways of operating on people so as to save both their limbs and their
lives.If a man was brought to him with a bad tumor (肿瘤)on his leg,Hunter did not,as most
surgeons would have done,cut off his leg,but tried first to remove the tumor and treat the leg so
that the leg might be saved.
1._________ we think is the most important of John Hunter's three advantages.
A.His brother's occupation
B.A natural curiosity
C.Lived in the country
D.Strong and skillful hands
.Fr2om the passage we guess that a barber was _________.

A.looked down upon at that time
B.looked up to at that time
C.regarded as equal to other occupations
D.not permitted to carry out operations

3.The word "dissection" from the context most nearly means ___________.
A.cutting something up into different parts under study
B.putting different parts of something together to cure the patient
C.operating on somebody without medical instruments
D.stealing dead bodies from graves to cut into pieces
4.From the last paragraph we can conclude that __________.
A.Hunter continued with his experiments
B.Hunter was learning more about how out bodies worked
C.Hunter found new ways of operations
D.Hunter was very conscientious and responsible

     One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one's
 mistakes.It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like "I was wrong about 
that," and it is even harder to say,"I was wrong,and you were right about that."
     I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake
 fifteen years ago.He told me he had been the manager of a certain grocery store in the 
neighborhood where I grew up,and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons(箱子).
Then he related an incident and I began to remember clearly the incident he was describing.?
     I was about eight years old at the time,and I had gone into the store with my mother to
 do the weekly grocery shopping.On that particular day,I must have found my way to dairy
 food department where the incident took place.
     There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was an impressive
 display of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons.The cartons were stacked (堆放)three
 or four feet high.I must have stopped in front of a display to admire the stacks.Just
 then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the stacks of cartons.
For some reason,I decided it was up to me to put the display back together,so I went 
to work.?
     The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened.When 
he appeared,I was on my knees examining some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs 
were broken,but to him it looked as though I was the criminal.He severely scolded me 
and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs.I protested my innocence and tried to explain,
but it did no good.Even though I quickly forget all about the incident,obviously the
 manager did not.?

1.The author was __________ when he wrote this article.______
A.about 23
B.about 15?
C.about 8
D.about 18?
2.When the manager scolded him the author _______.?
A.was frightened and cried?
B.did not say anything 
C.felt the manager was right?
D.tried to explain the incident?
3.It can be inferred that the author _______.
A.expects the woman to say sorry to him for the mistake she made
B.has forgiven the manager for what he did to him fifteen years ago
C.would like to tell people never to be fooled by an egg sale
D.regrets arguing with the manager for what he didn't do

"if it was up to me..."?

     Towards the end of the baseball game, a controversial call was given. At full speed Paul Harvey slid
home （本垒）and, thinking he had just ___1___ a game-changing run, he stood up only to face the
words, "You're ___2___!"
     Angry, he threw off his helmet and ran over to explain to the ___3___ why the call was wrong.
Before his ___4___ really got out of control, someone pulled him away, and he walked to the bench—
___5___.   
     Long after the coaches, players, and fans had gone home, he realized the impact of his ___6___.
Like most of us do when we are faced with the __7___ of our actions, he could have just let it go,
reasoning, "Everybody ___8___ it."
     However, in the silence of his heart, he knew that just ___9___ everyone else does it, that doesn't
make it all right. And so, long after his friends had gone home, he ___10___ that coach back up to the
school-not to ___11___ his car. No, the boy tracked this man down so he could tell him face to face,
"I'm sorry, Sir. It was all my___12___."
     It takes true courage to stand up to face the ___13___ we all make and say, "I was wrong. I'm
sorry." What makes this ___14___ unique is that it wasn't meant for the world to ___15___, it was
meant simply as a way to stay ___16___ to his own heart.
     The truth is at one time or another we have all been this boy —___17___ out in anger, saying hurtful
things, and feeling ___18___ for doing so. But the real test comes later when we are ___19___ with the
choice to say "sorry" or to walk away thinking, "Ah, they'll get over it."
     Maybe the "they" is a customer, a friend, or a child. Whoever it is, don't pass up the opportunity to
get right with your own heart. The time for apology is now! Courage is a ___20___ of the heart.
