to a small island. not knowing what else to do, the two survivors decided that they should pray to god.however, to find out whose prayers were more powerful, they agreed to divide（分割开）the land between them and stay on opposite sides of the island. the first thing they prayed for was food. the next morning, the first man saw a tree on his side of the island, and he was able to eat its fruit. but the other mans side of land remained barren. after a week, the first man became lonely and decided to pray for a wife. the next day, another ship was damaged and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the island. but on the other side of the island, there was nothing.soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes and more food. the next day, like magic, all of these things were given to him. however, the second man still had nothing.finally, the first man prayed for a ship so that he and his wife could leave the island, and in the morning he found a ship stopped at his side of the island.the first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island. as the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven, “why are you leaving your partner on the island?”“my blessings are mine alone since i was the one who prayed for them.” the first man answered. “his prayers were all unanswered so he doesnt deserve anything.”“you are mistaken!” the voice said. “he had only one prayer, which i answered. he prayed that all your prayers would be answered.”56. why didnt the two men stay together on the island?a. because they both

fun, family memories a child will remember for a lifetime. family game nightkids often get games for christmas or birthdays, and would love to have a chance to play with their family. or, make up some

many little girls to become a nurse. today, however, america is facing its worst nurse shortage since world war i. recently about 2, 000, 000 nurses are needed and 60 percent of all hospitals in the us have shortages large enough to threaten the quality of care provided. the demand for nurses spreads widely throughout the nursing field. what has become of these women in white? the answer lies in not one but several causes. one possibility is the fact that women have greater career options（职业选择）. in the past, women who chose to work outside the home had two basic choices: nursing or teaching. today, more women than ever are in the work force, but their options have greatly increased. there are women doctors, lawyers, firefighters and police officers. in fact, women today are found in nearly every field of work. nursing has been left behind, as women move on to jobs with higher pay and greater status（地位）. a woman or man in the nursing field is often looked down upon as “merely a nurse”. teachers may be also at fault. many high school students are actually being persuaded to keep away from nursing, told by teachers that they are “too bright to be a nurse”. americans are living longer than ever and requiring more medical attention. in fact, the number of elderly patients has almost doubled in the past twenty years. obviously a larger population requires more nurses. aids and other diseases have caused more and more people to need nursing care. usually fatal diseases mean long drawn-out hospital stay, that is to say, more nurses are needed to care for these patients. it is said that the demand for nurses will be doubled in the coming ten years.63. what are the main factors that are responsible for the shortage of nurses in america?a. women are better educated and provided with more different jobs than men.b. more women are clever enough to be doctors, lawyers and police officers.c. greater career options are offered for women and more patients require nurse cared. there are more diseases and nurses are badly paid and looked down upon.64. the passage tells us that high school teachers are to blame for_.a. not mentioning the worst nurse shortage in the usb. advising the students not to choose to be nursesc. introducing jobs with higher pay and greater status to their studentsd. not asking the government to raise the nurses payment65. the author wrote this passage in order to _.a. describe the unequal treatment of women in the usb. tell us womens free choice of jobs today in americac. draw peoples attention to the nursing shortage problemd. call on more women to be nurses after graduating from high school66. which of the following is true according to the passage? a. high school students think themselves too bright to be nurses. b. women in the us have greater career choice than in other countries.c. nursing used to be an ideal job for women in the us at one time.d. 60 percent of hospitals in the world are faced with nurse shortage. dits good to make mistakes, and here is why. first of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. its always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. if you never try anything new, how can you improve? how can you expand? the simple answer is “you cant.” look around you. with very few exceptions, either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new.another good thing about mistakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. consider this: edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. when asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt work.finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. why? because when all is said and done, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeed. every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer. but this all doesnt mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences (后果) of a mistake. quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesnt work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again.we all have limited time and money so dont blow them all on one approach to a problem. realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time
