Lie in bed, by an open window, and listen…
“No air conditioning? How can you sleep?” a friend asks, horrified. I tell her my family has decided to shut the air conditioner off and reduce our electric bill.
On this first night of our cost-cutting adventure, it's only 85 degrees. We're not going to suffer, but the three kids complain anyway.
They've grown up in 72-degree comfort, protected from the world outside.
“How do you open these windows?” my husband asks. Shaking the metal ribs(插销), he finally releases one. Bug bodies decorate the window shelf. As we spring the windows one by one, the night noises howl outside---and in.
“It's too hot to sleep,” my 13-year-old daughter complains. “I’m about to die from this heat,” her brother complains down the hall. “Just try it tonight,” I tell them. In truth I'm too tired to argue for long. My face is sweaty, but I lie quietly listening to the cricket choirs(合唱) outside that remind me of childhood.
The neighbor's dog howls. Probably a passing squirrel. It's been years since I've taken the time to really listen to the night.
I think about Grandma, who lived to 92 and still helped with my Mom's gardening until just a few weeks before she died. And then, I'm back there at her house in the summer heat of my childhood. I move my pillow to the foot of Grandma's bed and angle my face toward the open window. I turn the pillow, hunting for the cooler side.
Grandma sees me turn over and over. “If you'll just watch for the breeze(清风),” she says,“you'll cool off and fall asleep.” She cranks up the Venetian blinds(百叶窗). I stare at the filmy white curtain, willing it to move. Lying still, waiting, I suddenly notice the life outside the window. The bug chorus. Neighbors, porch-sitting late, speak in unclear words that calm me.“Mom, did you hear that?” my seven-year-old son cries. “I think it was an owl family.” “Probably,” I tell him. “Just keep listening…”
Without the working air conditioner, the house is oddly peaceful, and the unfiltered(未过滤的) night noises seem close enough to touch. I hope I'm awake tonight when the first breeze sneaks in.

高二英语七选五困难题查看答案及解析
We discuss the issue of when to help a patient die, which was not talked about openly and little was written about it.
The best way to bring the problem into focus is to describe two patients whom I cared for. The first, formerly a nurse, had an automobile accident. And there she was: in coma, on a breathing machine. One day, her husband and son came to see me. They told me their wife and mother was obviously going to die; she was a nurse and had told her family that she never wanted this kind of terrible death, being maintained by machines. I told them that while I respected their view, there was nothing deadly about her situation. The kidney(肾) failure she had was just the kind for which the artificial (人造的) kidney was most effective. While possibly a bit reassured, they were disappointed. Here was the head surgeon seemingly determined to keep everybody alive, no matter what.
Within a few days the patient awoke from her coma. About six months later, the door of my office opened and in walked a gloriously fit woman. After some cheery words of appreciation, the father and son asked to speak to me alone. As soon as the door closed, both men became quite tearful. All that came out was, “We want you to know how wrong we were.”
The second patient was an 85-year-old lady whose hair caught fire while she was smoking. She arrived with a deep burn; I knew it would surely be deadly. At the time, there was a class discussing medical ethics(道德). The instructor asked me if I had any sort of ethical problem I could bring up for discussion. I described the case and asked the students their opinion. After the discussion, I made a remark that was, when looking back, a serious mistake. I said, “I’ll talk with the nurses before we decide.” The instructor and the students were shocked: “You mean this is a real patient?” The teacher of ethics was not accustomed to being challenged by actuality.
A day or two later, when the lady was making no progress and was suffering terribly, we began to back off in treatment. Soon she died quietly and not in pain. As a reasonable physician, you had better move ahead and do what you would want done for you. And don’t discuss it with the world first. There is a lesson here for everybody. Assisting people to leave this life requires strong judgment and long experience to avoid its misuse.
1.Why were the first patient’s husband and son disappointed at first?
A.Their wife and mother was going to die.
B.The doctor didn’t do as they asked to.
C.Their wife and mother had to receive an artificial kidney.
D.The doctor scolded them for their cruelty.
2.The author discussed with the students________.
A.how to help patients end their lives
B.the importance of saving patients’ lives
C.whether it is ethical to keep a patient alive on a breathing machine
D.the case about an old lady
3.Why was the instructor of ethnics shocked?
A.He had never discussed helping a patient in real life to die.
B.He thought it was cruel to assist the old lady to die.
C.He was not accustomed to talking about ethnical problems.
D.He felt he was challenged by the author.
4.The author suggested that doctors _______ before they assist a patient in killing himself.
A.discuss it with the others first
B.make sure there is no other choice left
C.be required to do so first by the patient
D.give the patient enough medicine
5.Which of the following can best describe the author?
