My husband tells me that I am not a patient woman. And he is right. There is one area, however,where I have been the defender of patience and perseverance:motherhood.

For more than 25 years I have raised two kids，wiping bottoms，chasing and cajoling（哄）；combed and washed; with bedtime stories, and never questioned the timeline. Those little milk suckers have taken more than their daily amount of my existing patience and willpower. Don't be fooled—babies suck out more than breast milk.Even before they emerge,they steal from your very bones，which my osteopath（骨科医师）can confirm. I have painstakingly brought them up， and the last has just flown the nest proudly this month —off to university in the big smoke,just like his sister.

It seems amazing that human beings are the only animal to take 18 years or more to fledge（长羽毛）. Think of the caterpillar that hatches and grows into a butterfly all on its own. Or the baby horse that comes out and starts walking straight away. But the human baby sucks the life out of you for nearly two decades. "Creating and raising another human being",as my father would say,"could mean the difference between freeing a killer or a lifesaver into the world".

But mothers and fathers,make sure your existence does not rise and fall with their every breath. When they excitedly walk out the door,you will need something to fill the blank.

There is no school run or bedtimes. The only problem is that now you want to go to bed at the same time that your kids used to. My husband and I look at each other at 8 p. m. and our dry eyes say sleepy ——time admittedly to go up to bed and watch an hour of TV or more. If I had had learned anything in all my years of motherhood,it would be more efficient with my spare time;now I am to be even more efficient with the time I have left.

4.Which word can best describe the author's tone in paragraph 2?

A.Humorous.          B.Grateful.         C.Regretful.          D.Anxious.

5.What do the words by the author's father stress?

A. Children are born kind.                  B.Children should grow freely.

C.Parenting is socially meaningful.           D.A killer is different from a lifesaver.

6.Why do the couple go to bed at 8 p.m.as before?

A.Their kids tell them to.                   B.They are tired and sleepy.

C.They miss their kids so much.             D.They lack hobby to pass time.

7.What is the text mainly about?

A.Joys and sorrows from raising kids.

B.Marriage and constant understanding.

C.Loss and hesitation after kids flying the nest.

D. Motherhood challenges and the following wound.

C

"The Manuscript Writing Cafe only allows in people who have a writing deadline to face!”owner TakuyaKawai tweeted.“It’s in order to maintain a level of focus and tense atmosphere at the cafe!Thank you for your understanding.

The cafe charges customers by time used(it operates at a rate of 150 yen or $1.32 per 30 minutes),and is equipped with USB ports,computer stands,and free Wi-Fi. Struggling writers can also bring their own food and drinks, or have it delivered there since coffee and water are the only things available,but it's pretty strict when it comes to the actual writing.

Although the Manuscript Writing Cafe actually accepts a wide range of writers,from translators and copywriters to novelists and proofreaders,the rules are the same for everyone. When entering the cafe,customers must write down at the reception desk how many words they plan to write and by what time they plan to finish. Every hour, a member of the staff will come by to check on their progress and apply a predetermined pressure level to help move things along. For example,choosing the“S”course will have the cafe staff more militantly pushing you to get the work done,while the"M"course involves a milder approach.

However,the craziest rule of the Manuscript Writing Cafe is that writers are not allowed to end their session until reaching their declared goal or until the place closes down for the day,whichever comes first. It's not clear how the cafe carries out this rule, but it is meant to keep customers from declaring ambitious targets that they won't be able to meet.

While some found it interesting,others said that it was too much pressure.“If it were me, I would no longer be able to leave the store and would end up having to live there," one person commented.

8.What's the purpose of opening the Manuscript Writing Cafe?

A.To push people to finish writing on time.

B.To provide a shelter for struggling writers.

C.To keep writers from writing themselves out.

D.To make people understand a business concept. 9.What can we learn about the rules of the cafe?

A.The cafe serves food and coffee.

B.The customers are totally left alone.

C.The cafe is paid by time spent there.

D.No plan is required of those with light task.

10.What does the underlined word"militantly"mean in paragraph 3?

A.Elegantly.         B.Patiently.         C.Secretly.        D.Forcefully.

11.How does the cafe prevent customers making impractical plan?

A.They will be spotted and driven out.

B.They can't leave until reaching their goal.

C.They are locked in the cafe with no supply.

D.They will be double fined for failing the goal.

D

Researchers at the University of California,Santa Barbara have designed a one-foot device that can jump more than 30 meters in the air,three times the current record for a jumping robot.

"The motivation came from a scientific question,"the lead author Elliot W.Hawkers,a mechanical engineer at UC Santa Barbara,says in a statement.“We wanted to understand what the limits were on engineered jumpers."

"Many mechanical jumping systems are based on biological jumpers —— or those in the animal kingdom, but animals have limits to their jumping ability based on how much energy they can produce in a stroke（收缩）of their muscle，"Charles Xiao， a researcher in Hawkes'lab， says in the statement.

Researchers in this study took a different approach, using a motor to take multiple strokes and increase the amount of stored energy in the spring. The small motor winds up a line that presses the spring，which is made of carbon-fiber compression bows（压缩弓）and rubber bands. When a release mechanism is unlocked, the device launches into the air.

Because the stored energy is greater，this device's spring-to-motor ratio（比率） is also larger than what's seen in the animal kingdom by about 100 times. The device is lightweight and aerodynamic,which allows it to jump the height of a 10-story building and increase its speed from zero to 60 mph in nine meters per second.

While this kind of device could be used to navigate difficult lands on the Earth, researchers say it could reach heights even greater on the moon, where gravity is weaker.

"On the Earth,jumping robots could overcome obstacles previously only navigated by flying robots while collecting vision-based data of the ground below,"write the authors."On the moon, the jumps of the presented jumper would be even higher:125 meters high while covering half a kilometer in a single bound.

12.What inspired the design of the device?

A. A scientific question.                  B.A mistaken recognition.

C.The limit to engineer ability.             D.The record of robotic flexibility.

13.How is the innovation of the device presented?

A.By making comments.                  B.By giving examples.

C.By making comparisons.                D.By giving definitions.

14.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?

A.How the device works.                  B.Who is in favor of the idea.

C.When the mechanism is unlocked.         D.What causes the device to jump high.

15.What can the device be used to do?

A.Push through crowded streets.             B.Store greater energy for long.

C.Collect research data in time.              D.Help do surveys on the moon.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see.

I approached her room in a hurry and stood at the doorway. She was an older woman, sitting on the edge of the bed,struggling to put socks on her swollen feet.

I crossed the threshold（门口），spoke quickly to the nurse，and scanned her chart，noting she was in stable condition. I was almost in the clear.

I leaned on the bed rail looking down at her. She asked if I could help put on her socks. I thought I had other priorities on the list. It's my responsibility to arrange the issue. So instead, I launched into a monologue（独白）that went something like this："How are you feeling？Your sugars and blood pressure were high but they're better today. The nurse mentioned you're anxious to see your son who's visiting you today. It's nice to have family visit from far away.I bet you really look forward to seeing him.”

She stopped me in a serious,authoritative voice.“Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not your story.”

I was surprised and embarrassed. I sat down. I helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only son lived around the comer from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that the stress of this contributed greatly to her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks,I asked if there was any thingelse I could do for her. She shook her head no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.

And, not long after, in an unexpected twist, I became the patient,with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis at age 31.Now,20 years later,I sit all the time — in a wheelchair. For as long as I.could, I continued to see patients from my chair.

Dear Maria,

The young often convey their respect and blessings to the elders. val in China welcome to experience the one day!

Yours,

Li Hua

第二节

One possible version:

I gradually realize the patients' stories are a bond be-tween the teller and the listener. Each story is different. Some are detailed;others are vague. Some have a beginning, middle and end. Others wander without a clear conclusion. Some are true; others not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard—without interruption, assumption or judgement. I always reminded myself of the importance of stop-ping,sitting down and truly listening.

When my condition affected my hands,I resigned and began to teach medical students.Now l could view the whole from the perspective of physician and patient. I tell them I believe in the power of listening. I tell them I know first hand that immeasurable healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story. Listening to someone's story costs less than expensive diagnostic testing but is key to healing and diagnosis.
