“How much do I 47 you?” she asked.

“Nothing,” I said. Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She 48 on to me tightly, saying “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.” Then she walked into the hospice.

Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the 49 of a life. I didn’t pick up any more passengers for the rest of the day. I drove 50 , lost in thought. 51 I had refused to take the run?

China news, Nanjing, Nov. 14 --- “People who suffer from mental illness are able to draw. Actually, they can draw very well,” said Guo Haiping, a contemporary artist in Nanjing.

Recently, Guo spent three months living with the mentally retarded people at Nanjing Zu Tang Shan Psychiatric Hospital (精神病医院). When he was there, he taught them how to draw pictures. In three months, he collected more than 100 paintings drawn by the mentally retarded people, the Yangtze Evening News reported.

The paintings shocked the artistic circle. This has raised a question to the normal people in society: how can we give up our prejudices against the mentally retarded people and view them from a totally new perspective (看法)?

Before, the mentally retarded people in Nanjing had never touched painting brushes, nor did they know any painting techniques. Now, artists have begun to speak highly of their paintings. After seeing their works, Guo Haiping said this group of people and their works should “deserve more attention from society.”

“In China, no one believes that they can draw paintings. We have so many prejudices against this group of people and we really don’t know anything about their mysterious mental world,” Guo said.

At Nanjing Zu Tang Shan Psychiatric Hospital, Guo let the mentally retarded people see some paintings and gave them water color brushes, color pencils, oil chalk and clay. He told them they could do whatever they wanted with these materials. He didn’t teach them how to draw. He just encouraged them to pick up some of these materials and draw something. About 100 mentally retarded people in the hospital participated in the activity. During the three months’ stay in the hospital, Guo Haiping had seen them complete more than 300 works.

Guo Haiping also came to know about these mentally retarded people and their mental world through the event. He had collected all the patients’ paintings and made them into a book. Many works drawn by the patients will be exhibited in Beijing this month.

56. You can most probably read the text in ________.

A. a newspaper B. a hospital guide C. a science book D. a medicine book

57. The underlined word “mentally retarded” means ________.

A. depressed B. talented C. cautious D. slow-minded

58. Nobody in China believes the mentally retarded people can draw paintings because __________.

A. they think the mentally retarded people’s works are boring

B. the mentally retarded people really have no such special ability

C. they know little about the mentally retarded people’s mental world

D. the mentally retarded people’s works have never been collected by artists

59. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A. people will surely give up prejudices against the mentally retarded people

B. Guo Haiping collected all the patients’ paintings and made them into a book.

C. people have begun to change their opinions about the mentally retarded people

D. as a mentally retarded artist, Guo Haiping hopes to be considered a normal person

Google Works Miracles

GOOGLE (www.google.com) is a daily miracle to millions of people. If the Internet had only this very fast search engine, it would have justified its existence many times over. It is the most popular search engine on the web with a 54 percent market share, ahead of Yahoo! You type almost anything, however unclear, into the space provided and in a second it has come up with hundreds of references. It knowledge is power, then Google commands the gateway.

Yahoo! Becomes Giant

YAHOO (www.yahoo.com) was the first wonder of the web, and in many respects, it still is. It started in January 1994 when two California graduate students, Jerry Yang and David Filo, started compiling (编译) a database of links, mainly for their personal use. But well before the end of the year, it had become recognizable as Yahoo we know today. In the past seven years, Yahoo had grown rapidly, partly through a long string of buys. Yahoo now offers almost everything you could want: emails, instant messages, chats, clubs, photo albums, and a lot more.

eBay Enables Everyone to Buy and Sell

The company’s online service permits sellers to list items that is available online seven days a week.

C

The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30 pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.

By 9:45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.

Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30 -8:30 pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00 pm or 8:30 pm means possible dinner, but 9:30 pm and any time thereafter means no food, eat beforehand, roll up late.

But this is not always the case. If asked to a students’ party at 6:30 pm, it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive ---looking eager ---is social death. When my mother is asked to a party at 6:30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.

The accepted custom at present is confusing, sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element of surprise.

63. The underlined words “off their heads” probably mean ________.

A. tired B. crazy C. curious D. hopeless

64. Jane and David’s story is used to show that ________.

A. party invitations can be confusing

B. party-goers usually get hungry at parties

C. people should ask for food at parties

D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull

65. For some young people, arriving on time for a students’ party will probably be considered _______.

A. very difficult B. particularly thoughtful

C. friendly and polite D. socially unacceptable

66. What is the general idea of the text?

A. It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served.

B. It’s wise to eat something before going to a party.

C. It’s important to follow social rules of party-going.

D. It’s necessary to read invitations carefully.

D

ATLANTA, Georgia--- Alternative medicine --- including yoga, meditation, herbs（草药）and the Atkins diet（艾特金斯饮食法）---appears to be growing in popularity in the United States, perhaps because of dissatisfaction with conventional（传统的）care, the government said Thursday.

More than a third of American adults used such practices in 2002, according to the government survey of 31,000 people, the largest study on non-conventional medical approaches in the United States. If prayer is included, about 62 percent of U. S. adults used some form of alternative medicine.

The results seem to indicate more people are turning to alternative medicine, though the 2002 survey could not be directly compared to previous studies because of differences in size and survey methods, health officials said.

The top alternative therapies（疗法）included prayer (43 percent of adults) , natural products（19 percent）, meditation（8 percent）and diets such as Atkins, Ornish, or the Zone （4 percent）. More people also are using natural products such as herbs or enzymes（酶）to treat chronic or recurring pain（慢性或经常性疼痛）, said Richard Nahin of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, part of the National Institutes of Health.

“Many conditions are not easily treated with conventional medicine,” Nahin said. “It may be the public that is turning to complementary（补充的）and alternative medicine because it’s not getting relief from conventional medicine.”

But people should not be turning away from conventional treatments that are proven safe, said Dr. Stephen Straus, director of the alternative medicine center.

“People are making individual decisions to neglect those therapies and we have concerns about those choices,” he said.

Health officials said they were concerned that 13 percent of those surveyed said they turned to alternative medicine because regular medicine is too expensive.

“It needs to be explored ---we need to find out whether they were insured or not” Nahin said.

Health officials also were surprised that 6.6 percent of those surveyed used the supplement kava kava（卡瓦提取物）, which has been associated with liver disease.

“People make the assumption that because something is natural that it’s safe” Nahin said. “But a number of studies have shown that natural products can be unsafe when used inappropriately or with other drugs.”

He said people considering using alternative medicine should consult their doctor first.

67. Which can be used as the proper title for the passage？

A. Differences between alternative medicine and conventional medicine

B. Comparison of the effects of different medicine

C. Conventional care remains to be most acceptable

D. Alternative medicine becomes more popular

68. From the passage we know that most people choose alternative medicine _________.

A. because it has been proven safe to take

B. because experts confirm it all sidedly

C. because they are not satisfied with the conventional medicine

D. because conventional medicine is expensive

69. What can probably be inferred from the passage？

A. Most patients are blind in taking alternative medicine or conventional care.

B. Experts still haven’t drawn an all-round and exact conclusion about alternative

medicine.

C. Alternative medicine will eventually take place of conventional care.

D. Natural herbs are safer than the medicine processed by man.

70. Which of the following agrees with the article？

A. Experts will carry out further studies on alternative medicine.

B. Health officials are worried that using the alternative medicine will be removed.

C. The supplement kava is more effective to anxiety disease.

D. Natural products have an advantage over conventional care.
