Everybody may have seen the film "Death on the Nile （尼罗河) ," but nobody can imagine tha

Everybody may have seen the film "Death on the Nile (尼罗河) ," but nobody can imagine that the writer of the story, Agatha Christie, saved a baby in a most unusual way.

In June 1977, a baby girl became seriously ill in Deleville. Doctors there were unable to find out the cause of her illness, so she was sent to a famous hospital in London, where there were many excellent doctors. The baby was so seriously iii that a team of doctors hurried to examine her without any delay. The doctors, too, were puzzled by the baby's illness, and they also became discouraged. Just then a nurse asked to speak to them.

"I think the baby is suffering from thallium (铊) poisoning," said the nurse~ "A few days ago, I read a story 'A Pale Horse' written by Agatha Christie. Someone uses thallium poison, and all the symptoms (症状) are written in the book. They are exactly the same as the baby's."

"You're very good at observing things, "said a doctor, "and you may be right. We'll carry out some tests and find out whether the cause is thallium poisoning or not."

The tests proved that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium. Once they knew that cause, the doctors were able to give her correct treatment. The baby soon got well and was sent back to Deleville. A week later it was reported that the poison might have come from an insecticide (杀虫剂) used in Deleville.

The baby was sent to a hospital in London because ______.

A．her parents were living in London then

B．the hospitals in Deleville were full at that time

C．she was the daughter of a famous doctor in London

D．doctors in Deleville were not sure about the cause of her illness

第3题

He was a qualified doctor who rarely practised but instead devoted his life to writing. He

once said: "Medicine is my lawful wife, and literature is my lover. " Russian writer Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was a great playwright and one of the masters of the modern short story.

When Chekhov entered the Moscow University Medical School in 1879 , he started to publish hundreds of comic short stories to support his family. After he graduated, he wrote regularly for a local daily newspaper.

As a writer he was extremely fast, often producing a short story in an hour or less. Chekhov's medical and science experience can be seen through the indifference (冷漠) many of his characters show to tragic events. In 1892, he became a full-time writer and published some of his most memorable stories.

Chekhov often wrote about the sufferings of life in small town Russia. Tragic events control his characters who are filled with feelings of hopelessness and despair.

It is often said that nothing happens in Chekhov's stories and plays. He made up for this with his exciting technique for developing drama within his characters. Chekhov's work combined the calm attitude of a scientist and doctor with the sensitivity (敏感) of an artist.

Some of Chekhov's works were translated into Chinese as early as the 1940s. One of his famous stories, The Man in a Shell (《装在套子里的人》) , about a school teacher's extraordinarily orderly life, was selected as a text for Chinese senior students.

Anton Pavlovich Chekhov ______.

A．had a lawful lover

B．was an illegal writer

C．used to be a lawyer

D．was a competent doctor

Sometimes teens need to have some time away from their families. They may want' to move ou

t of the family home for a while.

Many parents will say no to this demand. But experts say it might be a good idea to let your teens live with a friend or relative.

"It was the break I needed at the time," said Richard Lerner. He is talking about the time he spent living with his grandmother when he was 15.

"It allowed me to be a different person than I was with my parents." Lerner said. He now heads the Institute for Children, Youth and Families at Michigan State University.

Experts say teens living away from their families can test new ways of thinking and getting along with people. They may see new solutions (解答) to problems.

This is different from running away, the experts stress. Runaways are often fleeing serious problems.

Some teens who want some time away from family attend a structured summer program. Others live for a while with a relative or with the family of a friend.

If there is conflict (冲突) at home, having a teen live elsewhere can benefit other family members. It gives everyone space to develop better relationships.

Joseph Kett teaches history at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He says living at home until the late teen years has become the norm (准则) only in recent times.

"In the 17th century, children were often sent to live in other people's homes when they were about 10 or 11," he said.

Peter Sheras teaches education at the University of Virginia. He said parents should listen when a child wants to move out. They should try to find out why the child wants some time away.

Often, parents can help the child find a safe place to stay during that time. In other cases, they can meet the child's needs at home.

According to this passage, many parents think it ______ for their children to live away from them.

A．right

B．happy

C．unsafe

D．reasonable

A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers. "Last week," s

aid he, "my umbrella was stolen from a London Church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn't get it back."

"How did you write your advertisement？" asked one of the listeners, a merchant.

"Here it is," said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, "Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."

"Now," said the merchant, "I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of great importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one." The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known." This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number. Many of them had notes, fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.

What is an advertisement？

A．A news item.

B．A public announcement in the press, on TV, etc.

C．One way to voice one's view.

D．Public opinions.
