A 记叙文

I was working as a consultant in a beer company, helping the president and senior vice-presidents form and carry out their new planning projects. It was really a great challenge.

At the same time, my mother was in the final stages of cancer.

I worked during the day and drove 40 miles home to be with her every night. It was tiring and stressful, but it was what I wanted to do. My commitment was to continue to do excellent consulting during the day, even though my evenings were very hard. I didn’t want to bother the president with my situation, yet I felt someone at the company needed to know what was going on. So I told the vice-president of Human Resources, asking him not to share the information with anyone.

A few days later, the president called me into his office.

I figured he wanted to talk to me about one of the many issues we were working on. When I entered, he asked me to sit down. He faced me from across his large desk, looked me in the eye and said, ―I hear your mother is very ill‖.

I was totally caught by surprise and burst into tears. He just looked at me, let my crying subside(平息), and then gently said a sentence I will never forget: Whatever you need.

That was it. His understanding and his willingness both to let me be in my pain and to offer me everything were qualities of sympathy that I carry with me to this day.

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan–-- Afghans burned tires and chanted ―Death to America‖ after U.S troops fired Monday(April 12, 2010) on a civilian bus near Kandahar, killing four people and wounding more than a dozen. Afghanistan’s president accused NATO of breaking its commitment to safeguard civilian lives.

The attack angered Afghan officials and the public in Kandahar, the Taliban’s birthplace, and dealt a blow to U.S and NATO efforts to win popular support for a coming offensive to drive the insurgents(叛乱分子) from the biggest city in the south. NATO expressed regret for the loss of civilian lives and said it was investigating.

Nearly 200 Afghans blocked highway where the shooting occurred, burning tires, firing weapons and chanting ―Death to America‖ and other slogans. They also called for the ouster (forcing somebody out of a pasition) of Afghan President Hamid Karzai, a Kandahar native who has been appealing for the people here to support the U.S-led campaign against the Taliban.

“The Americans are constantly killing our civilians and the government is not demanding an explanation,‖ protester Mohammad Razaq said. ―We demand justice from the Karzai government and the punishment of those soldiers responsible.‖

Kandahar, a city of about a half million people, is nominally under government control, but the Taliban have stepped up infiltration(浸润), staging attacks and threatening local people.

“These foreigners have their enemies, but killing Afghans is not the answer,” said Abdul Hadi, who sells homemade herbal medicine in a public market. He said international forces should publish a schedule of their patrols(巡逻) so Afghans can keep out of the way.

“Better yet, I would like to see them leave Afghanistan,‖ he added.

Haji Zahir, who runs a transport firm, said it was time for U.S. and other foreign forces to withdraw from the country.

“They say they want to bring security. It is all lies, lies. They kill Afghans. That is not the way to bring security,‖ Zahir said.

46．According to the passage, we can safely conclude that . A．American soldiers are killing Talibans effectively B．Anger rises as US troops kill 4 Afghans on a bus

C．NATO expressed great dissatisfaction with American troops D．Afghan President Hamid Karzai required NATO to withdraw

47．The underlined word in Paragraph 5 nominally most probably means . A．completely unknown to the people in the world B．partially well-known to the people across the globe C．bearing the name of a famous person around the world D．officially described as something, when this is not really true 48．As for NATO soldiers’ rude action, Abdul Hadi is . A．absolutely angry and upset B．a little pleased but impatient C．very angry and dissatisfied D．impatient but bearable 49．We can infer from the passage that . A．NATO troops can completely control Afghanistan B．NATO troops can bring security to Afghanistan C．Afghans will accept NATO’s control sooner or later

Do you want to live another 100 years or more? Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span. “ I think we are knocking at the door of immortality (永生),” said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. “ I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate.”

At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past. ― There is a great push so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,‖ he said. ― Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.‖

However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.

Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. ― It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?‖ said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Center. ― At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.‖

67. By saying ― we are knocking at the door immortality‖, Michael Zey means_____. A. they believe that there is no limit of living B. they are sure to find the truth about long living C. they have got some ideas about living forever

D. they are able to make people live past the present life span 68. Donald Louria’s attitude toward long living is that_____. A. people can live from 120 to 180

B. it is still doubtful how long humans can live

4

C. the human body is designed to last about 120 years D. it is possible for humans to live longer in the future 69. The underlined ― it‖ (Para. 4) refers to_____. A. a great push

B. the idea of living beyond the present life span C. the idea of living from 200 to 300 D. the conservative estimate

70. What would be the best title for this text? A. Living longer or not

B. Science, technology and long living C. No limit for human life D. Healthy lifestyle and long living
