When you are ill, you must be unhappy because your body becomes hot, and there are pains all over your body. You don”t want to work, you stay in bed, feeling very sad. What makes us ill? It is germs（细菌） . Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can”t find them with your eyes, but you can see them with a microscope. They are very very small and there could be hundreds of them on a very small thing. Germs are always found in dirty water. When we look at dirty water under the microscope, we shall see them in it. So your father and mother will not let you drink dirty water. Germs aren”t found only in water. They are found in air and dust. If you cut your finger, if some of the dust from the floor goes into the cut（割开处） , some of the germs would go into your finger. Your finger would become big and red, and you will have much pain in it. Sometimes the germs would go into all of your body, and you would have pain everywhere. （ ） 41.

B Hundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland, but there were too many of the Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win. One night, the leader of Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “ We will rest here tonight, my men, ” he said, “ Tomorrow we will fight one battle. We must win or we will die. ” They were all very tired, so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they too, were very tired, and one by one, also fell asleep. The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside, taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more, the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle（蓟） . He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment, they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped the Romans and saved their country. The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower. （ ） 46. Hundreds of years ago there was a war between _. A. Roman army and North England B.

Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “ But the desk, ” she”d said again, “ is for Elizabeth. ” I never saw her anger, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me； she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “ too emotional（易动感情的）” . But she lived “ on the surface” . As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive（原谅） me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn”t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written in, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. Now the present of her desk told me, as she”d never been able to , that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded （折叠） and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you chose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words. （ ） 51. The writer began to love her mother”s desk _.
