听力原文: A small girl and his mother were having a walk in the country when it suddenly began to rain very hard. They did not have their umbrellas with them, and there was nowhere to hide from the rain, so they were soon very wet, and the small girl did not feel very happy.

For a long time while they were walking home through the rain, the girl was thinking. Then at last she turned to her mother and said to her, "why does it rain, Mother? It isn't very nice, is it?"

"No, it isn't very nice, but it's useful," answered her mother. "It rains to make the fruit and the vegetables grow for us, and to make the grass grow for the cows and sheep."

The girl thought about this for a few seconds, and then he said, "Then, why does it rain on the road too, Mother?"

Where were the small girl and her mother having a walk?

A.In the downtown.

B.At the beach.

C.In the country.

听力原文: When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school pla
y. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher told me she bad written a narrator's part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a Walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. "I think I am going to dig up all these weeds," she said. "From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden. "

"But I like dandelions," I protested. "All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions!" My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.

When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.

"But you will be a beautiful narrator," she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. "Your mother asked me to give this to you," she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

(30)

A.Mainly because she felt nervous on the stage.

B.Mainly because she lost her interest in that role.

C.Mainly because she preferred the role of the narrator.

D.Mainly because she had difficulty memorizing her words.

After-birth Depression Blamed for Woman's SuicideA new mother apparently suffering from po

After-birth Depression Blamed for Woman's Suicide

A new mother apparently suffering from postpartum mental illness fell to her death from a narrow 12th-floor ledge of a Chicago hotel, eluding the lunging grasp of firemen called to help.

The Chicago Tribune reported Tuesday that the mother of a 3-month-old daughter, Melanie Stokes, 41, was said to be suffering from3 a severe form. of after-birth depression called postpartum psychosis, an extremely rare biological response to rapidly changing hormonal levels that can result in4 hallucinations, delusions, severe insomnia and a drastic departure from reality.

"That was a monster in my daughter's brain," said Stokes' mother, Carol Blocker. "The medicine took no effect at all, while her grief was so strong that nothing could make up for it. I'm just glad she didn't take her daughter with her."

Virtually all new mothers get postpartum blues, also called the "baby blues", which are brief episodes of irritability, moodiness and weepiness. About 20 per cent of birthing women experience postpartum depression, which can be triggered by hormonal changes, sleeplessness and the' pressures of being a new mother. It is often temporary and highly treatable.

But The Tribune said what scientists suspect Stokes was battling, postpartum psychosis, is even more extreme and is considered a psychiatric emergency. During postpartum psychosis -- a very real disorder that affects less than 1 percent of women, according to the National Institute of Mental Health-- a mother .might hear voices, have visions, feel extremely agitated and be at risk of harming the child or herself.

Often the consequences are tragic. In 1987, Sheryl Masip of California told a judge that postpartum psychosis made her drive a Volvo over her 6-week-old son. Latrena Pixley of Washington, D. C. o, said the disorder was why she smothered her 6-week-old daughter in 1992. And last year, Judy Kirby, a 31-year-old Indianapolis mother allegedly suffering from postpartum psychosis, sped into oncoming traffic and plowed into a minivan, killing seven youngsters, including three of her own.

Which of the following is NOT a symptom of postpartum psychosis?

A.Visions.

B.Delusions.

C.Inflamed breast.

D.Serious sleeplessness.

第二篇 Brain-dead Mother Dies after Giving Birth A brain-dead woman who was kept aliv

第二篇 Brain-dead Mother Dies after Giving Birth

A brain-dead woman who was kept alive for three months so she could deliver the child she was carrying was removed from life support on Wednesday and died, a day after giving birth.

"This is obviously a bittersweet time for our family," Justin Tortes, the woman's brother-in-law, said in a statement.

Susan Tortes, a cancer-stricken, 26-year-old researcher at the National Institutes of Health, suffered a stroke in May after the melanoma (黑瘤) spread to her brain.

Her family decided to keep her alive to give her foetus (胎儿) a chance. It became a race between the foetus' development and the cancer that was destroying the woman's body.

Doctors said that Tortes' health was getting worse and that the risk of harm to the foetus finally outweighed the benefits of extending the pregnancy.

Tortes gave birth to a daughter by Caesarean section (剖腹产手术) on Tuesday at Virginia Hospital Center. The baby was two months premature and weighed about a kilogram. She was in the newborn intensive care unit.

Dr Donna Tilden-Archer, the hospital's director of neonatology (新生儿学), described the child as "very vigorous." She said the baby had responded when she received stimulation, indicating she was healthy.

Doctors removed Tortes from life support early Wednesday with the consent of her husband, Jason Tortes, after she received the final sacrament (圣礼) of the Roman Catholic Church.

"We thank all of those who prayed and provided support for Susan, the baby and our family," Jason Tortes said in a statement. "We especially thank God for giving us little Susan. My wife's courage will never be forgotten."

English-language medical literature contains at least 11 cases since 1979 of

irreversibly brain-damaged women whose lives were prolonged for the benefit of the developing foetus, according to the University of Connecticut Health Center.

Dr Christopher McManus, who coordinated care for Susan Tortes, put the infant's chances of developing cancer at less than 25 per cent. He said 19 women who have had the same aggressive form. of melanoma as Tortes have given birth, and five of their babies became ill with the disease.

第 35 题 Susan Torres died soon after

A. she suffered a stroke.

B. she became brain-dead.

C. she was diagnosed with cancer.

D. she gave birth to a baby.

听力原文:A lot of parents do not realize how important the emotional aspect of the relatio

听力原文: A lot of parents do not realize how important the emotional aspect of the relationship is. It determines their children's performance. I recently heard a mother discussing what school her child might get into. She said, "I don't know how bright my son is." She said that as if her son's intelligence was an independent fate, like the color of the boy's eyes.

Many parents are frequently bothered by their children's marks at school. Their relationship with the child is almost wholly built around this. It was not at all like that with my dad. Until I was eight, he did not seem to worry about marks. And, after that, it was never exam performance that he was concerned about. Rather, he concentrated on my self-understanding. He constantly showed me that I was not stupid by pointing out things I had said that were signs of intelligence. This gave me self-respect. I kept failing exams. But, my father thought there was a difference between my failing one exam and whether I would be a success or failure in life.

Money can be used as a substitute for love for children of divorcees or of rich parents. It can also be used with school performance. Especially in the present exam-crazed system, parents can easily forget the point of education: it is to create fulfilled, creative adults, not exam-takers. If they show love conditionally on performance, it is a cause of depression.

(30)

A.The mother does not enjoy the performance of her son.

B.The mother does not like to communicate with her son.

C.The mother does not like her son.

D.The mother is short of emotions towards her son.
