It was unusually quiet in the emergency room on December 25. I didn’t think there would be any patients, sighing about having to work on Christmas. Just then five people showed up at my desk, a pale woman and four small children.
“Are you all sick?” I asked doubtfully.
“Yes.”she said weakly and lowered her head.
But when it came to descriptions of their presenting problems, things got a little puzzling. Two of the children had headaches, but the headaches weren’t accompanied by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still. Two children had earaches, but only one could tell me which ear was affected. The mother complained of a cough but seemed to work to produce it.
Something was wrong, but I didn’t say anything but explained that it might be a little while before a doctor saw her. She responded. “Take your time; it’s warm here.”
I checked the chart after the admitting clerk had finished registering the family. No address—they were homeless. The waiting room was warm.
I looked out at the family sitting close to each other by the Christmas tree. The little one was pointing at the television and the oldest one was looking at the decorations on the Christmas tree.
I went back to the nurses’ station and mentioned we had a homeless family in the waiting room. The nurses, complaining about working on Christmas, turned to sympathy for a family just trying to get warm on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when there’s a medical emergency. Only this one was a Christmas emergency.
We were all offered a free meal in the hospital cafeteria on Christmas Day, so we fetched that meal and prepared a large meal for our Christmas guests. Our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas Day.
Later, as the family walked to the door to leave, the four-year-old came running back, gave me a hug and whispered, “Thanks for being our angels today.”
1.From the descriptions of the family’s presenting problems, the writer learned that ________.
A.one of the children had a language problem
B.the mother caught a bad cold
C.they were pretending to be sick
D.they got all infectious disease
2.The author made sure that the family were homeless by ________.
A.asking them some questions
B.listening to their descriptions of problems
C.observing their abnormal body language
D.checking their registered information
3.What kind of person do you think the writer is?
A.Careful and warmhearted. B.Hardworking and outgoing.
C.Serious and experienced. D.Loving and forgiving.
4.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A.Christmas Guests B.A Homeless Family

It was 4 o'clock in the morning when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just36 in with severe burns on his face,neck and arms.We have called for a(n)37and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles from his college,so we knew immediately this was38.
The doctor described the39,which caused the burns.At 6 am,our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment.When they 40 the charcoal(木炭),it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline(petrol).The flames41my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head.
42,one of the boys was quick-minded,grasped my son,and43him on the grass.While it saved his life,it was not in 44to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars(伤疤).
After he45from the treatments,the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容)for 6 months46it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling.So,he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister,who had a 10-inch, very 47__ scar on her arm,“Nancy,if you ignore the scar,other people will ignore it.It does not mean they will not48it,but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.’’

By the end of the six-month waiting period,he decided that the scars did not51, sohe made the52to give up any plastic surgery.
We all have “scars” that we believe53 people to keep away from us.And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked different,or dressed differently,people would like us better.

The Kingdome in Seattle was destroyed on March 26, 2000. It was taken down to make room for a new stadium. The blast(爆破) from the falling building caused the earth to shake as if an earthquake had happened.
Scientists placed more than 200 earthquake recorders in the earth to measure the movement. They found which parts of the city shook the most. This information helped them know which parts of the city would be damaged in a real earthquake at an early time.
A real earthquake happened on February 28, 2001 in Seattle. The Nisqually earthquake was 6.8 on the Richter scale(里氏6.8级). It damaged the same parts of Seattle that scientists had predicted(预测) from the pulling down of the Kingdome. It was a plate quake. It started deep in the earth, 37 miles below the surface on the Juan de Fuca Plate. Sometimes, huge plates under the earth cause earthquakes when the plates move against each other suddenly.
Scientists have learned that deep earthquakes have very few aftershocks(余震). The Nisqually earthquake had only 4 ones. Another earthquake in California that was close to the surface had over 120 aftershocks. Scientists do not know why the deep earthquakes have fewer aftershocks.
Scientists plan to blast in the ground near Seattle with the purpose of testing the plate. The shockwaves from the blast will jump off the plate and give them an idea of where the plate is and how it is moving. This will give them more information in case another real earthquake hits the area.
1.According to the passage, ______ have the most aftershocks.
A.shockwave earthquakes B.shallow earthquakes
C.deep earthquakes D.earthquakes more than 6.8 Richter scale
2.What do scientists hope to learn from the blast above the Juan de Fuca Plate?
A.They hope to learn where the plate is and how it is moving.
B.They want to destroy the Kingdome.
C.They want to know which places are likely to have the most damage.
D.They hope to find out how many plates there are in the ground there.
3.Why were the scientists interested in the pulling down of the Seattle Kingdome?
A.They wanted to see which areas near the Kingdome would shake the hardest.
B.They wanted to predict what might happen in a real earthquake.
C.They wanted to measure the movement of the Earth with earthquake recorders.
D.All of the above.
4.What will happen after a deep earthquake according to the scientists?
A.There will be many aftershocks.
B.There will be very few aftershocks.
C.The Richter scale of the quakes will be a 6.8 or more.
D.There will be little damage.

For some minutes, all was quiet in the street. Then from across the street someone came walking.
It looked like a man of middle height, dressed in a big raincoat, a soft hat and rubber-soled boots or shoes, and making little sound while walking. No one was in sight. It was a street with two rows of about fifty small houses and there were three lamps on either side. The lamp nearest to the child’s house could be seen clearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoky air. A car passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly,but clearly enough to show the smooth skin of a woman’s face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in her coat, reached the doorway of the child’s house. She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and stepped inside, then closed the door without looking round. She began to breathe hard.
She leaned against the door for a moment, then straightened up as if with an effort, and walked towards the door of the front room, the passage leading to the kitchen, and the narrow staircase. She hesitated outside the door, then went up the stairs quickly but with hardly a sound. There was enough light from the narrow hall to show the four doors leading off a small landing(楼梯平台). She pushed each door open in turn and shone a torch inside, and the light fell upon beds, walls, furniture, a bathroom hand-basin, a mirror which flashed brightness back; but this was not what the woman was looking for. She turned away and went downstairs, and hesitated again at the foot of the stairs, then turned towards the kitchen. Clearly there was nothing there, or in the small washroom that she wanted. Two rooms remained; the front room and a smaller one next to it. She opened the front room door. After a moment, she saw the child’s bed and the child.
1.The lights of the car passing the end of the street showed that ______.
A. a woman was driving the car
B. someone was standing by a street lamp.
C. a man and a woman were walking up the street.
D. a woman was walking by herself up the street.
2.After the woman closed the front door, she ___________.
A. looked round quickly
B. started breathing again
C. rested before moving
D. walked straight towards the front door
3.When she was upstairs, the woman _______.
A. saw that there was a wash-basin in each room
B. noticed a mirror which she was looking for
C. found a torch in one of the rooms
D. opened four different doors
4.Once she was in the house, the woman behaved as if what she was looking for _______.
A. might be in the kitchen
B. was more likely to be upstairs
C. would be easily seen by the light from the hall
