When she was young she took lessons in music and drawing, and read great books. She also traveled a great deal with her mother and father. As a child she felt that visiting sick people was both a duty and a pleasure. She enjoyed helping them. At last mind was made up. “Im going to be a nurse,” she decided. “Nursing isnt the right work for a lady,” her father told her. “Then I will make it so, “she smiled. And she went to learn nursing in Germany and France. When she returned to England, Florence started a nursing home for home. During the Crimean War in 1854 she went with a group of thirty eight nurses to the front hospitals. What they saw there was terrible. Dirt and death were everywhere to be seen and smelled. The officer there did not want any woman to tell him how to run a hospital, either. But the brave nurse went to work. Florence used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes, beds, medicine and food for the men. Her only pay was in smiles from the lips of dying soldiers. But they were more than enough for this kind woman. After she returned to England, she was honored for her services by Queen Victoria. But Florence said that her work had just begun. She raised money to build the Nightingale Home for Nurses in London. She also wrote a book on public health, which was printed in several countries. Florence Nightingale died at the age of ninety, still trying to serve others through her work as a nurse. Indeed, it is because of her that we honor nurses today. ( ) 1.

The passage can best be described as _ . A. the life story of a famous woman B. a description of the nursing work C. an example of successful education D. the history of nursing in England BAs we know, there are differences between western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way that words are used. Lets look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog have negative meanings, such as “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a persons serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel(冷酷的). There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.The rose (玫瑰) is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage (勇气) and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.( ) 6. The expression “a dog catching a mouse” in Chinese usually _ .A. has a negative meaningB. has a positive meaningC. means a dog is playing games with a mouse( ) 7. “Every dog has its day” in English means _ .A. everybody is lucky all the timeB. everybody has a lucky time in lifeC. each person lives his own way of life ( ) 8.

Western people think dogs to be good friends. C. The rose is only the national flower of England and America. ( ) 10. Whats the best title for the passage?A. Negative or PositiveB. Different Countries Have Different CulturesC.Different Meanings about Animals and PlantsCSam and Joe were astronauts. There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced astronauts knew there was only a small chance of coming back to alive. Sam and Joe, however, thought of it would be exciting though a little dangerous. “We are the best man for the job,” they said to the boss. “There may be problems, but we can find the answers.” “They are the last people Id trust,” thought the boss. “But all the other astronauts have refused to go.”Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs. When the repairs were done, he tried to go back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again no answers came. Then he hit the door as hard as he could and finally a voice said, “Whos there?” “Its me! Who else could it be?” shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again!( ) 11. Most of the astronauts were unwilling to go on the trip because _.

Astronauts who are expected to go there in the next ten years may find plenty of water there to get rid of there thirst. If there is water on Mars, it is more likely that there is life there too.There is the view of 40 geologists who have been analyzing thousands of pictures and other scientific information gained by robot explorers in the 1960s and 1970s.At first, scientists thought the red planet was lifeless as the moon with dust and storms blowing over large sandy desert. But now the picture is different with mountains and valleys cut by glaciers(冰川)and deep underground rivers thought to be on the planet.In a report on the analysis of the Martian pictures, Dr Michael Card of the US says, “I believer there is lots of water on Mars” Water will be in the form of ice. But it could be saved explorers from having to take water with them.The report says that Mars probably had a warmer climate in ages past, because of its axis(轴线)having been tilted more towards the sun.No convincing signs of plants or animals life have yet been found by instruments soft landed on Mars, although the area near the landing instruments has been examined.( ) 15.
