day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. that was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. after writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in philadelphia. she was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling. in 1849, after graduation from medical school. she decided to further her education in paris. she wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea. upon returning to the united states, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. by 1857 elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women.46. why couldnt elizabeth blackwell realize her dream

doctor c. and several other women founded the first hospital for women and children d. set up the first medical school for womenb in old times, man considered lightning to be one of the great mysteries(神秘事物)of nature. in fact a single flash of lightning 1. 6 kilometers long has enough electricity to light one million lamps. the american scientist, benjamin franklin, was the first to suggest that lightning is in fact electricity formed between the earth and clouds high above. it happened in 1752. in the same year, he also built the first lightning rod(避雷针)to protect buildings from being struck by lightnings. modern science has discovered that lightning is very strong and powerful. a lightning between a cloud and the earth may be as long as 13 kilometers, and travels at a speed of 30 million meters per second. scientists have the opinion that there are about 2, 000 million flashes of lightning per year. in the united states alone, it kills almost one person per day. the safest place to be in during an electrical storm is a closed car. outside, one should go close to low ground for cover and not stop under a tree. also one should stay out of water and away from metal fences. inside a house people should keep away from open doorways and windows and not touch wires or metal things. 50. from this passage we know lightning is_ . a. one of the great mysteries of natureb. electricity high above the earthc. a kind of lightd. the sound from the clouds51. in the us _. a. every person can see lightning every dayb. at least one person is killed by lightning every dayc. there are about 6 million flashes of lightning per yeard. about one person per day dies from lightning52. during a lightning storm, it would be best if you _. a. stand under a tree b. go outside c. stay in a closed card. stop near windows53. a lightning rod can _. a. prevent accidents caused by lightning b. stop lightningc. protect buildings from being washed awayd. delay the coming of lightningcwhen people want to know about the weather, they usually go to there radios, tvs, newspapers, or to the internet. however, you can also find many weather signs among wildlife, because of their highly developed senses. drops in air pressure（压力） produce an effect on small animals in many ways. mice and deer are good weather indicators. people who spend a lot of time outdoors have observed that, before a storm, field mice come out of their holes and run around, deer leave high ground and come down from the mountains.birds are especially good weather indicators because they also show the effect of a pressure drop in many ways. for example, some birds become irritable（急躁的）and quarrelsome and will fight over a piece of bread. other birds chirp（叽叽喳喳）and sing just before a storm. it seems they know they wont get another chance for an hour or two. birds also seek safe places before a storm, you will sometimes see birds settling in trees or gathering together on a wire close to a building. pre-storm low pressure makes the are so thin that birds have difficulty flying.it is unusual to see many birds flying overhead in the summertime, rather than during the periods in the spring or autumn. watch for other weather signs if you see this. if they fly in the wrong direction, they may be flying ahead of a storm.by paying closer attention to some important signs in nature, we can become better prepared for any kind of weather.54the word“indicators”in paragraph i probably means _.amapsbservicescsignsdstations55there will be a storm if birds _ .amake more noise than usualbfly in different directionsccome down from tall treesdshare a piece of bread56how can birds sense the coming of a storm?_aby feeling a drop in air temperature.bby noticing the change of wind

weather signsdi was shopping in the supermarket when i heard a young voice.“mom, come here! theres this lady here my size!”the mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize.i smiled and told her, “its okay.” then i talked to the boy, “hi, mickey, im darry kramer. how are you?”he studied me from head to toe, and asked, “are you a little mommy?”“yes, i have a son,” i answered.“why are you so little?” he asked.“its the way i was born,” i said. “some people are little. some are tall. im just not going to grow any bigger.” after i answered his other questions, i shook the boys hand and left.my life as a little person is filled with stories like that. i enjoy talking to children and explaining why i look different from their parents.it takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. i stand three feet nine inches tall. i was born an dwarf (侏儒). despite this, i did all the things other kids did when i was growing up.i didnt realize how short i was until i started school. some kids laughed at me. i began to hate the first day of school each year. new students would always stare at me as i struggled to climb the school bus stairs. but i learned to smile and accept the fact that i was going to be noticed my whole life. i decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. what i lacked in height, i made up for in personality.im 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as ive grown older. people are amazed when they see me driving. i try to keep a good attitude. when people are rude, i remind myself, “look what else i have-a great family, nice friends.”its the childrens questions that make my life special. i enjoy answering their questions. my hope is that i will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.58why did the mother apologize to the author? abecause the boy ran into the author.bbecause the boy laughed at the author.cbecause the boy said the author was fatter than him.dbecause the mother thought the boys words had hurt the author.69when did the author realize that she was too short?awhen she grew up.bwhen

the futuree. expand your knowledge f. be willing to spend your time and money61._who doesnt want to have a good future? its something everyone desires. the one who determines whether or not you have a good future is you. dont wait until something bad happens. dont wait until you lose your job. it is you who must take action. start now while the situation is still good. why? because it takes time to build something. lets say you want to build an alternative income stream that you can rely on. you cant build that overnight. doing that takes time and persistence. if you dont start early, it might not have been ready by the time you need it.62. _it could be difficult to spend your time and money on something that doesnt give you immediate return. but its important that you do that and it is one of the best ways to prepare yourself for the future. those who are wise always spare some time and money in advance to invest in their future. if you dont, your progress will be slow and you wouldnt be ready in time.63._im sure youve heard the advice “ dont put all your eggs in one basket.” its good advice, but how can you apply if you know only one basket? by expanding your knowledge, you will know what possibilities there are so that you can find new opportunities. expanding your knowledge can also help you see something you already know in a different light. you can see it from a new
