阅读理解。     Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The next building only was a few feet away from mine.
They was a woman lived there, and I had never met her, yet I could see she sat by her window each
afternoon, sewing or reading.
     After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear
through the dirty window. I would say to myself. "I wonder why that woman doesn"t wash her window. It
really looks terrible."
     One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
     Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a
rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible (看见). Her
window was clean!
     Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching
hers through my own dirty window.
     That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the
dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?
     Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him
through my own dirty window?" I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world
about me more clearly. 1. The writer couldn"t see everything clearly through the window because _________.A. the woman"s window was dirty
B. the writer"s window was dirty
C. the woman lived nearby
D. the writer was near-sighted 2. The writer was surprised that _________. A. the woman was sitting by her window
B. the woman"s window was still terrible
C. the woman did cleaning in the afternoon
D. the woman"s window was clean 3. "It dawned on me" probably means "_________". A. I began to understand it
B. it cheered me up
C. I knew it grew light
D. it began to get dark4. It"s clear that _________.A. the writer had never met the woman before
B. the writer often washed the window
C. they both worked as cleaners
D. they lived in a small town 5. From the passage, we can learn _________.A. one shouldn"t criticize others very often
B. one should often make his windows clean
C. one must judge himself before he judges others
D. one must look at others through his dirty windows

阅读理解。       A friend of mine asked me the question, "Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant
to be fair?" Her question was a good one. It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster: Life isn"t
fair. It"s a bummer, but it"s absolutely true. 
      One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others, thinking that life
should be fair, or that someday it will be. It"s not and it won"t. One of the nice things about surrendering (承认)
to the fact that life isn"t fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the
very best we can with what we have. We know it"s not "life"s job" to make everything perfect it"s our own
challenge. Surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that
everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has his own strengths and problems in the process of growing up,
facing the reality and making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel cheated or unfairly treated.
     The fact that life isn"t fair doesn"t mean we shouldn"t do everything in our power to improve our own lives
or the world as a whole. Instead, it suggests that we should. When we don"t recognize or admit that life isn"t
fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves. Pity is a self-defeating (自我挫败的) emotion that does
nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life
isn"t fair, however, we feel compassion (同情) for others and for ourselves. And compassion is a heatfelt
emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about
the unfair world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. You may be surprised that it can push you out
of self-pity and into helpful action. 1. The words "a bummer" in the first paragraph probably means ___.A. a chance
B. a disappointment
C. a choice
D. an embarrassment 2. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage? A. We cannot just feel sorry, but take actions.
B. We may feel worse when we realize the unfaimess.
C. Life will become fair someday through our great efforLs.
D. Pity is a self-defeating emotion delivering loving-kindness. 3. The best title for the passage is___. A. Push You out of Self-pity
B. Face the Problems in Your Life
C. Encourage Yourself to Do the Best
D. Surrender to the Fact that Life Isn"t Fair

    Studies have shown it takes a doctor about 18 seconds to stop a patient after he begins talking. 
    It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see. I came close to her room in a hurry and stood at the doorway.
She was an older woman, sitting at the edge of the bed, trying to put socks on her swollen(肿大的) feet. I
spoke quickly to the nurse, saw her chart saying she was in stable(稳定的) condition. I was almost in the
clear. 
   She asked if I could help put on her socks. Instead, I began a long speech that went something like this:
" How are you feeling? Your blood sugar and blood pressure (血压)were high but they"re better today. The
nurse said you can"t wait to see your son who"s visiting you today. It"s nice to have a family visit from far
away. I"m sure you really look forward to seeing him. "
    She stopped me with a serious voice. " Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not your story. "
    I was surprised and ashamed. I sat down. I helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only
son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that the pressure of
this caused greatly to her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there
was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.
     Listening to someone"s story costs less than expensive diagnostic(诊断的) testing but is key to healing
(痊愈).
     I often thought of what that woman taught me the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening.
And, not long after, unexpectedly, I became the patient, with a diagnosis of sclerosis(硬化症) at age 31. Now,
 20 years later, I sit all the time in a wheelchair.
     For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair, but I had to give up my job when my
hands were influenced. I still teach medical students and other health care professionals, but now from the view
of doctor and patient.
    I tell them I believe in the power( 力量) of listening. I tell them I know firsthand that huge healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story.  
1. What does"I was almost in the clear" mean?
A. I thought everything was clear.
B. I was about to finish my work.
C. I almost made myself understood.
D. I was very quickly out of her sight.
2. From the 4th paragraph, we can infer the woman ___from the way she said.
A. showed her anger and impatience
B. refused to listen to the doctor
C. liked giving orders to people
D. could not wait to break in
3. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Listening-a Powerful Medicine
B. An Unforgettable Experience
C. A Lesson Given by a Patient
D. Care—a Key to Treatment .
