A

The day my husband fell to his death，it started to snow，just like any November day．His body, when I found it，was lightly covered with snow．It snowed almost every day for the next four months，while I sat on the couch and watched it pile up．One morning，I shuffled downstairs and was surprised to see a snow remover clearing my driveway and the bent back of a woman shoveling(铲)my walk．I dropped to my knees and crawled through the living room. And back up stairs so those good people would not see me. I was embarrassed．My first thought was，how would I ever repay them? I didn’t have the strength to brush my hair, let alone shovel someone’s walk．

Before John’s death，I took pride in the fact that I rarely asked for help or favors，I defined myself by my competence and independence．So who was I if I was no longer capable and busy? How could I respect myself if all I did was sit on the couch every day and watch the snowfall?

Learning how to receive the love and support that came my way wasn't easy. Friends cooked for me and I cried because I couldn't even help them set the table. “I'm not usually this lazy, ”I wept．Finally，my friend Kathy sat down with me and said, "Mary，cooking for you is not a burden. I love you and I want to do it. It makes me feel good to be able to do something for you.”

Over and over，I heard similar emotions from the people who supported me during those dark days．One very wise man told me, “You are not doing nothing. Being fully open to your sorrow may be the hardest work you will ever do.”

I am not the person I once was, but in many ways I have changed for the better. My heart is now filled with thanks for people around me．I have been surprised to learn that there is incredible freedom that comes from facing one’s worst fear and walking away whole. I believe there is strength, for sure, in accepting a dark period of our life.

21. Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A. The writer’s friend was unwilling to cook for her．

B. The writer had been busy with her life before．

C. The writer recovered from her sorrow quickly with his friend’s help．

D. The day her husband died，it was snowing heavily．

22. We can describe the writer before her husband died as the following EXCEPT __．

A. hard-working B. independent C. smart D. capable

23．The underlined word“shuffled”in Paragraph 1 probably means ___________．

A. stepped steadily B. walked slowly

C. ran swiftly D. fell sadly

24．We can infer from the passage that ____________.

A. the writer found her husband immediately he fell off the roof

B. the writer became strong-willed immediately after John's death

C. the people around the writer were friendly and supported her

D. before John’s death, the writer never asked others for help

B

As children begin to head back to school, there are several things that you can do to make sure that your child stays healthy and performs at their peak potential during the school year.

1. Make sure your child is up to date on their immunizations(免疫). The summer is a good time to schedule visits to the doctor’s as your child is not in school, and the visit won’t require that your child miss school days.

2. Encourage proper nutrition. America faces childhood obesity(肥胖). This means that the percentage of overweight children is increasing each year, and this will place your child at risk of developing a variety of diseases when they are middle age or even young adults. You can start helping your child to become healthier by offering fruits and vegetables at home instead of calorie heavy potato chips and candy.

3. Get your child involved in sports activities. Activities in high school such as track and cross-country are important for socialization for your child, as well as helping to improve their health. You can get your child interested in wholesome activities by discussing with them how you enjoyed similar activities in high school.

4. Have the birds and the bees conversation with your child. Many children become sexually active in junior school and senior high school, and the sooner you discuss sex with your child the sooner they will be prepared. Tell your child that there is always the possibility of infecting a sexual disease when two people have sex; and discuss with your child the use of condoms. The sooner you start having this embarrassing situation the better.

5. Know your child’s friends. You can do this by inviting your child to bring their friends over to your house for a pizza night, or by chatting with them when they stop by your house. If you find your child’s friend has a bad reputation, then you could consider introducing your child to a different network of people, such as through the girl/boy scouts. Forbidding your child from seeing a certain person may only lead them to rebel and become closer to that person.

6. Discuss with your child the seriousness of drug use and abuse. Your child may not realize that using drugs can have serious consequences. Your child may get the false impression that drug use is his right. Explain to a child that saying no to drugs is their right, and that anybody offering them drugs is not their friend.

7. Help your child to avoid a life long smoking addiction by discussing with them the consequences of smoking. The sad fact is that most smokers became addicted when they were in their teenage years, and are unable to quit for long periods of time and often die many years earlier due to their smoking habit which increases the risk of lung cancer, heart disease, and a variety of medical conditions. Even if you are a smoker yourself, you can discuss with your child about how damaging smoking can be on a person’s health.

8. Impress upon your child the importance of traffic rules. Tell them that it is OK to wear a seat belt in anyone’s car, because it may save their life one day. If your child rides a bicycle or a skateboard, then discuss with them the importance of always wearing a helmet. As you child becomes qualified for driver’s permit, you should discuss with them the importance of prevention from drinking and driving.

9. Be cautious about signs of depression in childhood. A surprisingly large number of children may become depressed, and a small number of teenagers and children commit suicide(自杀) each year. Realize that any signs of unusual depressed mood, angry outbursts, suicidal comments, feelings of hopelessness, and loss of enjoyment of activities with friends may be signs of depression.

25. What topic is NOT discussed in this passage?

A. Traffic B. Smoking C. Depression D. Study

26. The first three tips focus on children’s .

A. medical care B. nutritious food C. physical health D. sports activities

27. “Have the birds and the bees conversation with your child” means “ ” .
