阅读理解。     Chen Yurong, 55, an average woman in Wuhan, Hubei province, who was diagnosed with a fatty liver (肝),
walked 10 kilometers a day for seven months, despite wind and rain, so she could donate part of a healthy liver
to her son. After wearing out four pairs of shoes and losing eight kilograms, her fatty liver condition disappeared.
One doctor called it a "miracle" (奇迹).
     Her 31-year-old son, Ye Haibin, suffered from severe Wilson"s disease, a rare disorder that causes body to
keep copper. Doctors said only a liver transplant could lengthen his life. Despite her age and the knowledge that
about one in 1 000 liver donators die after the transplant, Chen said she did not hesitate to donate part of her liver.
     "In order to give my young granddaughter a complete family, I"d like to do everything to save my son,
including doing exercise and eating less", Chen said.
     The transplant was performed on November 3, 2009. The surgery lasted more than 14 hours and saved her
son from life threatening liver disease. State-owned CCTV broadcast the transplant live and she has been widely
praised in China.

答案

举一反三

However, the 55-year-old mother said she never expected such attention, which
did bring her hope and help from many others-even strangers. Despite giving up part
of her liver, Chen, like before, gets up at 6 am to help her son wash and take his
medicine. Moved by Chen Yurong"s love for her son and her determination and effort,
the hospital paid the entire medical bill, which would have added up to 600 000 yuan
(US $85 715).
The great mother, Chen Yurong was honored as the most touching figure in China
for 2009.

forest barking furiously. I recognized it was my dog Lulu. The fireman followed the tracks of the dog until
we found him barking   9   by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately
waiting for rescue. Thanks to Lulu, four kittens and a fireman were saved.
     That day, I was very proud of Lulu for his two heroic  10  towards the kittens and the fireman Lulu showed

     When I entered Berkeley, I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a Straight-A student. I believed
I could   1   tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by

and, for the first time, learned the meaning of the word "  9  ". But my  10  did no good and everything
went as before.
     The last hurdle was the final. No matter what grade I got, it wouldn"t cancel three C-pluses. I might as
well kiss the  11  goodbye.
     I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the
final, I even  12  myself to a movie. The next day I decided for once I"d have fun with a test.

expecting me. "If I gave you the grade as you expected, you wouldn"t continue to work as hard."
     I stared at him,  14  that his analysis and strategy were correct. I had worked my head off, as I had
never done before.
     I was  15  when my course grade arrived: A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I received
my scholarship. I"ve always remembered Professor Jayne"s lesson: you alone must set your own standard
of excellence.

     My elder brother Steve, in the absence of my father who died when I was six, gave me important lessons
in values that helped me grow into an adult.
     For instance, Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a
Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my
baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt"s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged
me to confess to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path
between buildings. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window
from my pocket money if she would return my ball.
     I also learned from Steve that personal property is a sacred thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my
fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else in
spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I"d hate to lose to someone else the small
dog my father carved from a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still
remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on the shoulder.
     Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was
twelve, I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my accuracy, I screamed to
Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and
stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, "Did it hurt you first, Mark?" I didn"t
know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, "The only time you should ever think of hurting a
living thing is if it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time." I really felt terrible then, but that
moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.

1. What is the main subject of the passage?

[ ]

A. The relationship between Mark and Steve.
B. The important lesson Mark learned in school.
C. Steve"s important role in Mark"s growing process.
D. Mark and Steve"s respect for living things.

2. In the story about the pen, which of the following lessons did Steve teach his brother?

[ ]

A. Respect for personal property.
B. Respect for life.
C. Sympathy for people with problems.
D. The value of honesty.

3. According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?

[ ]

A. Respect for living things.
B. Responsibility for one"s actions.
C. The value of honesty.
D. Care for the property of others.

4. The underlined word "knocked" in the second paragraph means _____.

[ ]

A. tapped
B. beat
C. struck
D. trembled
