From the
time I was a child growing up in New Jersey, I
loved spending
weekends with my grandparents.
I felt 35 in Granny’s small kitchen. We always
had peaceful conversations, and Granny always
seemed to include some wisdom with
every dish
she prepared.
I remember one Saturday
morning. I was about 11 years old. After breakfast
I
asked Granny, “What kind of soup are you
making today?” “Vegetable beef,” she
answered.
“And you can help by cutting some carrots.” 36
I slowly cut the carrots,
I said, “I’ve got to
give a report next week and I’m scared (害怕的). I
don’t like
standing in front of everybody.
What if I forget what I’m going to say? Or what if
somebody laughs?” “And what if you do just
fine?” Granny asked. “Have
you 37 notes?”
“Well, no. That would be a lot of work.” “Hard
work
never 38 anyone,” Granny said. “You
could try practicing in front of a 39 . It’s
easy to find how well you are practising.”
I pushed the pieces of carrots to the side
of the cutting board and went on to
complain
(抱怨) about schoolwork, friends and family. Granny
took it all in,
listening 40 while I
talked about so many pieces of grief (伤心事) in my
life.
“Nancy, ” she said, “there’s nothing
wrong with a little trouble in your life. Well,
you
know, a lot of people don’t make homemade
soup these days. They say it’s too much
trouble. But I don’t 41 such a little
trouble. It adds flavor (滋味) to my soup - and
to my life. My soup would be pretty bland (平淡)
42 the vegetables, and
so would my life if
it didn’t have the little ups and downs.” She
smiled and then
started washing the dishes.
While I helped Granny clean up, I thought about
what she
had said. I still had a few days to
43 my report.
That Saturday, Granny gave
me food for 44 as well as a bowl of her
homemade soup. As I 45 the meal with my
grandparents, somehow (不知何故)
my problems
didn’t seem so big any more. Maybe I could turn a
little trouble into
something as 46 as
Granny’s homemade soup. I would have to work on
them.
Granny had said hard work paid off.

Many heart
attacks (心肌梗塞) are not as easy to discover as
shown on
television. In fact, there are some
people who present few or no symptoms (征兆)
when they are having a heart attack. However,
the common symptoms are chest pain
(疼痛),
shortness of breath, breaking out in cold sweat
(汗). Not getting to the
hospital in time may
result in death.
The symptoms of a heart
attack are not as clear in women as they are in
men.
Women may experience breathlessness, fast
heart beating, light-headedness, chest
pain,
neck and shoulder pain and unusual tiredness.
Heart attacks with few or no
symptoms seem to
be more common in women than men.
The early
warning symptoms of a heart attack usually last
for at least 20 minutes,
during which women
may experience one or more symptoms. These
include:
Pain in chest
A heart attack
usually causes discomfort or pain in the center of
the chest, which
lasts for more than 20
minutes and is usually with a lot of cold sweat.
The pain may
come on suddenly, start slowly,
develop over minutes, or come and go. Women
usually have lighter chest pains and so may
not take this symptom seriously.
Pain
spreading
The chest discomfort may spread to
the neck and throat, shoulders, the back,
arms
and even to wrists and hands.
Discomfort in
the upper body
Some people don’t get chest
pain-only discomfort in parts of the upper body,
including back or neck pain. There may be a
feeling of choking (阻塞) in the throat,
or the
arms may feel heavy.
Unusual symptoms
There may be shortness of breath or some
difficulty breathing, a cold sweat, or a
feeling of being light-headed.
Lots of
tiredness
A study of 515 women found that
the most common early warning symptom of a
heart attack in women is unusual tiredness.
See a doctor if you experience one or more
of such symptoms. If you think that
you are
having a heart attack, get help immediately.
53. Women should be more careful with heart
attacks because ______.
A. they are much
weaker than men
B. a heart attack is more
common in them
C. they don’t take care of
themselves
D. the symptoms are not so clear in
them
54. What a heart attack symptom happens
most probably in women, according to
the
passage?
A. Pain in the chest. B.
Shortness of breath.
C. Unusual tiredness.
D. Light-headed feeling.

55. Which of the following is not
mentioned when a heart attack happens?
A.
You may have chest pain and cold sweat at the same
time.
B. A bad headache may come on from
time to time first of all.
C. Some may
have pains in the back first instead of the chest.
D. A chest pain may appear suddenly and
become worse slowly.

I traveled
to Singapore from my home in Thailand on March 12
last year for a
four-week English course. If I
was used to the environment, I would like to go to
high
school there. I got along well with my
teachers and classmates. Even though we had
known each other only a short time, we formed
a good friendship.
On April 3, I made plans
to meet my friends at East Coast Park, so we could
hang out for the last time before I returned
to Thailand. That morning, I went to the
underground station and found a place just
behind the yellow line that stops people
from
standing too close to the edge of the platform
(站台). More people began lining
up behind me,
and before long I could feel the push of the
people at my back.
Just as the train came up
to the station, the people pushed forward. I lost
balance
(平衡) and fell off the platform. Before
I knew what was happening, the train’s front
wheels rolled across my legs. Looking at the
platform, I shouted, “Help me! Quickly!”
I
didn’t cry because I knew that if I started I
might not be able to control myself.
After I
was lifted onto the platform, I was taken directly
to the nearest hospital
where a doctor told me
that they would not be able to save my legs. I
accepted what
he said. Whatever was going to
happen would happen. There’s no point in crying
about what’s already lost.
I stayed in
the hospital for two months and ten days. And then
an exciting thing
happened. The second
daughter of the King of Thailand learned about my
accident
and had me moved to the Sirindhorn
Center back home. She also offered me the
chance to finish my education at the
Chitralada School in Bangkok. I was so happy
because the school is very difficult to get
into. It was very kind of her to help out a
person like me. At the center, I was fitted
with German-made prosthetic legs.
Learning to
walk again was difficult. Every step needed a lot
of training.
I often asked why I could still
smile after the accident. The fact is that I don’t
know why I should be sad. All that I’ve lost
are legs, not my life. Everything that
happened after the accident was truly
surprising. I really believe that I now have a
great doctor at the center. I have met others
who’ve lost limbs like me. Getting into
Chitralada School is beyond belief for me.
Meeting new people is great. Getting help
from
the King’s daughter has been very encouraging.
I think my attitude comes from how my
parents raised me. This is what my dad
said in
an interview: “I tell both of my daughters that
nothing is certain. We could die
tomorrow or
in the next five years. Anything could happen, so
we always have to be
prepared. I think my
daughter has done very well in the accident.”
56. What’s the writer’s purpose to go to
Singapore?
A. To join her family.
meet some friends.
C. To finish high
school. D. To improve her English.

57. What’s the final result of the
accident?
A. The writer fell off the
platform. B. The train ran over the writer.
C. The writer lost both of her legs. D. The
writer was taken to hospital.
58. What the
writer’s father said mainly tells us that ______.
A. we can never know the future B.
death usually comes suddenly
C. the world
is full of dangers D. one must be ready for
anything
59. Which of the following can be
the best title for the passage?
A. Walk
On B. Goodbye My Legs
C. Stand Up D. I’m Still
Living
