Shes forgetful (健忘). She thinks were hiding (藏) you from her”I got back home at once.

It was not easy for me. I had to stop working. When I had to leave , I had to ask someone to look after her or drive her to my brothers.When it became clear that she was near the end, family memebers were called to come to say their good byes. For 3 weeks my sister and I just sat with Mom, took long walks and spent some real time with each other. My sister and I were both with Mom when she was passing away (去世), holding her hands and telling her how much we loved her.

John was encouraged by the words of the boss and tried harder the next day, but he could only cut down 15 trees. The third day he tried even harder, but he could only cut down 10 trees. Day after day he was cutting down fewer and fewer trees.I must be losing my strength, John thought. He went to the boss and said that he could not understand what was going on. When was the last time you had sharpened your axe? the boss asked. Sharpened? I had no time to sharpen my axe. I have been very busy trying to cut more treesl said John.The moral of this story: While John was working hard, he didnt think about how to do his job better. Our lives are like that. We sometimes get so busy that we dont take time to sharpen our skills. Many of us never learn new skills. We think that whatever we have learned is enough. However, in some ways, sharpening our skills from time to time is the key to success.31 . When did John cut the most trees?AThe first day.BThe second day.CThe third day.DThe fourth day.32 .

She hoped that this would make him work better for her. He took the tickets without saying anything, and she heard no more about them until the end of the month, when she got the painters bill(账单）.

American football is not like soccer. Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances (机会) to move the ball ten yards (码). They can carry it or throw it. If they move it to the other end of the field, they receive six points. This is called a touchdown (底线得分).It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the team try to stop the man who has the ball. If the man does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the other team.Each university wants its team to win. Thousands of people come to watch. They all yell (喊加油) for their favourite team. Young men and women called cheerleaders (啦啦队长) come to help the people yell more.Each team plays ten or eleven games. Each season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best teams play again on January 1, the first day of the New Year.
