题型：不详难度：来源：

Tom was a clever boy, but his parents were poor, so he had to work in his spare time and during his holidays to pay for his education. In spite of this, he managed to get to the university, but it was so expensive to study there that during the holiday he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time so as to make enough money to pay for his studies.
One summer he managed to get a job in a butcher’s shop(肉店)during the day-time, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learnt to cut meat quite nicely, so the butcher often left him to do all the serving while he went to the back room to do the accounts(账目). In the hospital , on the other hand, he was , of course , allowed to do the simplist jobs, like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butcher’s shop and at the hospital, Tom had to wear white clothes.
One evening at the hospital, Tom had to carry a woman from her bed to the place where she was to have an operation. The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her, but when she saw Tom, that finished her.
“No! No!” she cried. “Not my butcher! I won’t be operated on by my butcher!” and fainted away(昏厥).
68. Tom made enough money by ________.
A. studying in the university         B. working in a butcher’s shop
C. doing two jobs                  D. cutting meat well

A. a butcher and a doctor           B. a manager and a doctor

D. he was going to operate on her
71. When she saw Tom, that finished her, the sight of Tom _________.

Jessie"s Glove
I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores.      21    the topics we discuss is the retention （保持）of quality employees -- a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale （薪水标准）in the service industry. During these discussions, I asked the participants, "What has caused you to stay long enough to become a manager?" Some time back a new   22    took the question and     23      said, "It was a $19 baseball glove."
Cynthia told the group that she    24    took a Circle K clerk job as an interim （过渡时期）position   25      she looked for something   26     .On her second or third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He needed a baseball glove for Little League. She explained that    27     a single mother, money was very    28    , and her first check would    29    go for paying   30    . Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second or third check..
When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager, asked her to come to the small room in the back of the store that    31    as an office. Cynthia    32    if she had done something wrong or left some part of her job incomplete from the day before. She was concerned and confused．
Patricia handed her a box. "I overheard you talking to your son   33    ," she said, "and I know that it is hard to   34     things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie because he may not understand how    35    he is, even though you have to pay bills    36    you can buy gloves. You know we can"t pay good people like you as much as we would like to; but we    37   care, and I want you to know you are important to    38 ."
The thoughtfulness, sympathy and    39 of this convenience store manager demonstrates vividly that people remember more how much an employer 40     than how much the employer pays. An important lesson for the price of a Little League baseball glove.

BEIJING, May 5(Xinhua) —The number of Chinese children infected with hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) continues to rise, with reported cases reaching 9,251 by Monday.
The latest HFMD infections occurred in the southwestern Chongqing Municipality which reported 42 sporadic(零星的) cases since Thursday.
"No fatal or critical cases have been reported in Chongqing so far," said Liu Kejia, vice director of Chongqing Health Bureau. "The disease prevention and control center has sampled some cases and no enterovirus 71 has been confirmed."
Beijing has recorded at least 1,482 cases of the disease in all the 18 districts in the city until Monday, of which 818 were

reported in kindergartens. The neighboring Hebei Province reported 206 cases on Monday.
Altogether 25 children have died of the disease. Tests have confirmed 24 of the deaths were triggered by the virus known as enterovirus 71 or EV71.
According to the Guidelines Regarding Prevention and Control of HFMD published on the Ministry of Health website, HFMD can be caused by a host of intestinal(肠的) viruses, but EV71 and the Coxsackievirus (Cox A 16) were the most common.
Anhui Province, in east China, and Guangdong Province, south China were the worst hit areas. Twenty-two of the deaths occurred in Fuyang, a city in northwestern Anhui, and the rest in Guangdong.
Outbreaks have also occurred in Jiangsu, Hunan, Hubei provinces, according to statistics released by local health departments.
In Anhui alone, 622 new cases were reported on Saturday, including 362 in Fuyang, driving up the number of children

with HFMD to 5,151 in Anhui.
Guangdong registered 925 cases as of Sunday.
Both EV71 and Cox A16 can cause HFMD, which usually starts with a slight fever followed by blisters and ulcers(溃疡) in the mouth and rashes(皮疹) on the hands and feet.
Those sickened by EV71 often show serious symptoms. It can also lead to meningitis, encephalitis, pulmonary edema and paralysis in some children. There is no vaccine.
The Health Ministry issued a circular(通告) late last month requiring better management and surveillance of the disease, as it expects more cases in the next few months.
The ministry asked hospitals for daily reports on the disease, and for local health departments to report emergencies promptly and increase investment in research into the disease.
53. How many deaths occurred in Guangdong Province according to the passage?
54. Which place was seriously infected as it is reported?
55. Why are children so easily infected?
