The Doll and the White Rose

I was walking around in a mall, when I saw a cashier(收银员) hand this little boy some money back．The cashier said, "I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll ．”The little boy seemed very disappointed．

I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to．"It's the doll that my sister wanted so much for Christmas．She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her: But Santa Claus can't bring it to her where she is now．I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there．"His eyes were so sad．"My sister has gone to be with God．Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister．”

My heart nearly stopped．The little boy looked up at me and continued, "I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet．I need her to wait until I come back from the mall．"

I quickly reached for my wallet and said," Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll．"

"OK, I hope I do have enough," he said．I put some of my money with his without him seeing and we started to count it．There was enough for the doll and even some spare money ．

Surprisingly, the little boy cried, "Thank you God for giving me enough money!" Then he looked at me and added, "I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that Mommy could give it to my sister． He heard me! I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much．But he gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose ! " Then I remembered two days before a local newspaper reported an accident in which a woman and a little girl were badly injured．The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state．Was this the family of the little boy?

Two days after I met the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the woman had passed away ．I couldn't stop myself from going to the funeral．Teary-eyed, I felt that my life had been changed forever．

The light from the campfire brightened the darkness，but it could not prevent the damp（潮湿的） cold of Dennis‟s Swamp(沼泽地) creeping(蔓延) into their bones.It was a strange place.Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack‟s dare.They liked camping ，but not near this swamp.

“So，” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals.“How did this place get its name ？”

“Are you sure you want to hear it? It‟s a scary story，” warned Jack.

“Of course！” cried out Tom.“If there were anything to be scared of，you wouldn‟t have chosen this place！”

“OK，but don‟t say I didn‟t warn you，” said Jack，and he began this tale.

“Way back in time，a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here.He built that cottage over there to live in.In those days，the area looked quite different—it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river.After three hard years ，Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops.He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.”

“„You are clearing too much land，‟ warned one old man.„The land is a living thing.It will hit back at you if you abuse it.‟”

“„Silly fool，‟ said Dennis to himself.„If I clear more land，I can grow more crops.I‟ll become wealthier.He‟s just jealous(嫉妒的) ！‟”

“Dennis continued to cut down trees.Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed.He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door.He did not notice salt seeping（渗出） to the surface of the

land.He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”

“What happened？” Martin asked.It was growing colder.He trembled，twisting （扭曲） his body closer to the fire.

“The land hit back—just as the old man warned ，” Jack shrugged.“Dennis disappeared.Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater.His body was never found.”

“What a stupid story，” laughed Tom.“Plants can‟t...” Before he had finished speaking，he screamed and fainted(晕倒) ．The other two boys jumped up with fright ，staring at Tom.Suddenly ，they burst out laughing.Some green swamp ivy(常春藤) had covered Tom‟s face.It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.

59．The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.

We all know how important human life is—it‟s priceless. It doesn‟t matter where you are from or what the color of your skins is—all people are human beings. Firstly, we can tell you that the lives of your relatives could depend on your ability to give first aid. If you think highly of human‟s life, this website is for you! Here you can find information about first aid.

The very first thing that you should do when you see an accident is to evaluate the situation and prevent further dangerous incidents. First of all, you have to recognize what has happened and what the dangers to rescuers and victims are. Think about how to take care of the victims.

Helping usually takes place in very difficult conditions and injuries can be very bad. Therefore, you cannot be too afraid of making mistakes to help. Sometimes you have to face the fact that regardless of your actions and your efforts the victim‟s condition might not improve —he or she could even die. In some cases even professional medical aid may not succeed. If you have done everything you think you should do, you shouldn‟t feel guilty.

Do not expose yourself to danger. Giving first aid can be dangerous. While trying to help a victim, do not forget about your own safety. If something happens to you, you won‟t be able to help anyone.

Call for help after you find out the condition of a victim. But remember if a victim faints(晕倒) due to breathing failure caused by drowning, choking or poisoning, you should first take actions that help to bring back the heart beat and breathing. While calling, talk shortly but clearly. Always provide the following information: the location of the accident, the kind of accident, the number of the injured and your full name and phone number and so on.

64. The underlined word “ evaluate” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______.

A. leave B. protect C. avoid D. judge

65. What‟s the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A. You should learn some professional knowledge about first aid.

B. You shouldn‟t feel guilty if you don‟t know about first aid.

C. Try your best to give first aid and don‟t be afraid of making mistakes

D. Don‟t make mistakes when you are giving first aid.

66. The author thinks that helping a victim can be ____________.

A. risky B. shocking C. exciting D. boring

Many people think that listening is a passive（消极的）businese .It is just the opposite（相反的）.Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work.It is because they do not realize this，or because they are not willing to do the work，that most people do not listen well.

Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else.An essential part of listening well is the rule known as „bracketing‟．Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires ，to experience as far as possible someone else‟s world from the inside ，，since listening well involves bracketing ，it also involves a temporary acceptance of the other person.Sensing this acceptance，the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part

of his or her mind to the listener.True communication is under way.The energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.

Most of the time we lack this energy.Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well ，what we are usually doing is listening selectively.Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder，as we listen，how we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us.Many of us are far more interested in talking than in listening，or we simply refuse to listen to what we don‟t want to hear.

It wasn‟t until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowledge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的) ．In about a quarter of the patients I saw ，surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of the psychotherapy(心理疗法) ，before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained.There are several reasons for this phenomenon，but chief among them，I believe，was the patient‟s sense that he or she was being truly listened to，often for the first time in years ，and for some，perhaps for the first time ever.

67．The phrase “stepping into his or her shoes” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.

A ．preparing a topic list first B ．focusing on one‟s own mind

C ．directing the talk to the desired results

D ．experiencing the speaker‟s inside world

68．According to the author，in communication people tend to ________.

A ．listen actively B ．listen purposefully（有目的地）

C ．set aside their prejudices（偏见） D ．open up their inner mind

69．According to the author，the patients improved mainly because ________.

A ．they were taken good care of

B ．they knew they were truly listened to

C ．they had partners to talk to

D ．they knew the roots of problems

70．What type of writing the article likely to be?

A ．Science fiction. B ．A news report.

C ．A medical report. D．Popular science.

Forgiveness （原谅）

To forgive is a virtue（美德）, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.

Try the following steps:

Calm yourself. You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.

Don ‟t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don‟t see things the same way. Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.

Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about you hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your mounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.

If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender ‟s point of view.

Don ‟t forget to forgive yourself. But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don‟t do it.

A. Why should you forgive?

B. How should you start to forgive?

C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.

D. Try to see things from you offender‟s angle.

E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.

F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.

G . If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time.
