听力原文: The classic case in medical history of a typhoid carrier is that of Mary Mallon. During a New York typhoid epidemic she was found working as a cook and thus very readily spread the disease to others. She persisted in finding employment as a cook both in private service and in various institutions. She even changed her name to avoid detection. For eight years she continued to carry and spread typhoid wherever she went. Finally she was made to live in a hospital. There her work could be regulated so that she did not pass on typhoid. She lived in hospital for twenty-three years, until her death in 1938. For thirty-one years she had been a known carrier of the disease without herself suffering any ill effects.
(30)
A.A typhoid carrier.
B.A cooker.
C.A patient.
D.A medico.

This important change in women's life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left schools at the first chance, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women usually marry younger, more married women stay at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with the both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to file abilities and interests of each of them.
According to the passage, around the year 1900 most women married ______.
A.at about twenty-five
B.in their early fifties
C.as soon as possible after they were fifteen
D.at any age from fifteen to forty-five

One day a woman came into the bookstore and lasted Ann for boots on cancer(癌症). The woman seemed anxious. Ann showed her practically everything they had and found other books they could order.

Years later, as a television reporter in Los Angeles, Ann heard about a child who was born with problems with his fingers and his hand. His family could not afford a surgical(外科的) operation, and the boy lived in shame, hiding his hand in his pocket all the time.
Ann persuaded her boss to et her do the story . After the story was broadcast, a doctor and a nurse called, offering to perform. the surgical operation for free.
Ann visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation. The first thing he did was to hold up his repaired hand and say, "Thank you. " What a sweet sense of satisfaction Ann Curry felt!
