nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call him on a two-way radio. this special doctor is called the “flying doctor”. he visits sick people by plane. when someone is very sick, the doctor has to fly to the persons home. his plane lands on a flat piece of ground near the persons house. sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. flying doctors take about 8,600 people to hospital each year. however, most of the time the person isnt very sick, and the doctor doesnt have to visit. he can give advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. he can tell the patient to use some medicine from a special medicine chest (箱子). there is one of these chests in every home in the outback. each bottle, tube and packet in the chest has a number. the doctor often says something like this,” take two tablets from bottle 5 every four hours.” 21.some people in the australian outback cant get to a doctor quickly. because_a.there are few doctors thereb.the nearest doctor is sometimes very far away from themc.there is always heavy traffic on the roadd.they dont want to see a doctor22.the doctor there usually goes to visit his patient

man who flies people to hospital d.there are very few hospitals in australiaba swedish man was dug out alive after being snowed in his car on a forest track for two months with no food, police and local media reported on saturday.the 45-year-old from southern sweden was found on friday, february17, too weak to say more than a few words.he was found not far from the city of umea in the north of sweden by snowmobilers who thought they had come across a ruined car until they dug their way to a window and saw movement inside.the man, who was lying in the back seat in a sleeping bag, said he had been in the car since december 19.“just incredible that hes alive considering that he had no food, but also since its been really cold for some time after christmas,” a rescue team member told regional daily vasterbottens- kuriren, which broke the news. ebbe nyberg, duty officer at the umea police, said police saw no reason to doubt that the man had been stuck in the car for a very long time.“we would not make up something like this. the rescue services were on site too and saw the same as us.” he told vasterbottens-kuriren.umea university hospital, where the man is recovering after being rescued by police and a rescue team, said in a statement he was doing well considering the circumstances.doctors at the hospital said humans would normally be able to survive for about four weeks without food. besides eating snow, the man probably survived by going into a dormant-like(休眠似的) state, physician stefan branth told vasterbottens-kuriren.“a bit like a bear that hibernates. humans can do that.” he said. “he probably had a body temperature of around 31 degrees which the body adjusted to. due to the low temperature, not much energy was used up.”“why the man ended up under the snow in the forest remains unknown,” police said. 24.who found the swedish man in the snow?a.snowmobilers. b.the police. c.a rescue team. d.local people.25.“police saw no reason to doubt that the man had been stuck in the car for a very long time.”implies that_. a.police didnt think it trueb. police were sure of the factc.police had some doubt on the fact d. police had reasons to doubt the fact26.the reason why the man could survive was most probably that_. a.he was only forty-five years old b. he slept in the sleeping bagc. he was in a dormant-like state d.he did not use any energy27.which of the following can be the best title of the passage?a.a traffic accidentb.a successful rescuec.a long sleep in winterd. an incredible survivalcas with any house guests, indoor plants require a certain amount of basic, regular attention if they are going to feel at home. the first consideration when purchasing plants is to make reasonably sure that they are suitable for the condition in which they are going to be housed. a general rule for most plants being brought indoors for the first time is to ensure that they have reasonable temperature of not less than 60 degrees fahrenheit, a position out of cold air, safe from pets and not exposed to strong sunlight. plants love company. when plants are growing together, they create an atmosphere of damp around themselves which is far more beneficial than hot dry conditions. a group of plants will also present a more pleasing picture and provide an opportunity for a creative arrangement. there is no secret to this. just rely on your natural feeling for harmony. watering and feeding plants are probably the two areas of care that are the least well understood, but, again, if you follow a few simple rules, your plants should do well. cold slightly warm water is therefore the answer. it is usually better to pour water on to the soil on the surface of the pot rather than put the water into the pot holder at the bottom. avoid giving small amount of water at regular intervals- it is much better to wet the soil right through the pot in one go and then to allow it to dry noticeably before giving it a further watering.the majority of indoor plants will be in active growth from march until october, and during this time, the established ones will benefit from regular feeding. this may mean feeding with a weak liquid fertilizer(肥料) at each watering or at intervals of a week or ten days with fertilizer at a standard strength. it is important, however, to ensure that plants are not fed when growth is inactive, when the soil in the pot is dry, or too soon after the plants has been potted up.28. in paragraph 2, the author mainly tells us to_. a. buy plants that help clean indoor air b. create a new environment with plants c. put plants on the sunny side of the room d. make sure of suitable conditions for plants29. whats the benefit of plants growing together? a. it provides owners good company.b. it makes it convenient to look after them. c. it helps the air around them slightly wet.d. it allows owners to draw a pleasant picture.30. while watering the plants, what should we remember to do? a. use water that is a little warm.b. pour the water into the pot holder. c. give small amount of water at one time.d. consider further watering in wet weather.31. what is the best time to feed the plants? a. when the soil is dry.b. when the temperature is high. c. when their growth is active.d. when they have just been planted.dalexis was hot and tired. with rage in her voice she shouted, pull me up！i give up, i hate this. this is stupid! it was at that moment when jason, the adviser on the trip, looked at me and said, ed, im going to go down and talk with her. i then shouted down to alexis, hold on! you can do this. we know you can!jason grasped another rope, put his climbing harness(系带)on and began to move down the cliff. within moments jason was beside alexis. she had her cheek directly against the face of the rock with her feet barely resting on a small piece of the cliff that stuck outward. jason said to alexis, i know that you have been on this cliff now for what seems like a long time. your feet and fingers are cramping(痉挛)up and your forearms feel as though they are on fire. but , alexis, you are strong, look how far up you are already. you have taken one of the more difficult paths up the cliff. alexis, look at the path you have taken. at that moment, alexis moved her cheek away from the rock face and looked down. the bright white chalk she used in her hands to give her a better hold, showed the path where her tired hands had moved her upward on the cliff. jason was right. alexis had taken the hardest way up the cliff. jason then looked straight into alexis eyes and in a calm voice he said, you are not alone out here, there are people who care about you, who want to help you and see you succeed. we are going to do this together. are you ready?

_41_ we had to take the girls to their next activity. my husband seemed a bit _42_ that dinner was not on the table. that night, i had a heavy _43_, thinking we were becoming taskmasters on an assembly line (流水线). we had become too _44_ in our own tasks and not very considerate towards those around us. we needed to do something to bring back some meaning into our lives. it needed to be something that would _45_ on our own daily work and energize us toward the common good.i bought a notebook, named it “our deed diary” and held a family meeting. i told my family i wanted us all to think about doing a _46_ for others every day. it could be for each other or for people outside our_47_. and we all needed to write it down in the notebook.i thought one deed a day was too easy.

rough _51_. on some days, someone would forget to _52_ a good deed, while on other days, we would forget to write our good deeds in the diary. after a few weeks though, i found myself waking up in the morning trying to _53_ what good deed i could do for someone that day. my daughters began to rush to me after school to _54_ me the good deed they had done.now, after a year, i am happy to say that it is making a(n) _55_ in our lives. instead of always _56_ what the day will bring for us, we think about what we can do for someone else. who would have thought that trying to do a simple kindness a day would be so_57_? i feel my daughters have felt inner joy that you can only _58_ by giving to someone else from your heart. the best thing is that you feel so great about doing something for someone else; you dont even look for or expect anything in _59_. so, when someone does return the favor, it is an enormous and positive _60_. 41. a. thoughb. unlessc. befored. while42. a. puzzledb.
