Sam， I say to myself as I start across the bridge， you must stop these thoughts and start thinking about what to do now that you have lost your falcon（猎鹰）， Frightful．

Life， my friend Bando once said， is meeting problems and solving them whether you are an amoeba or a space traveler． I have a problem． I have to provide my younger sister Alice and myself with meat． Fish， nuts， and vegetables， are good and necessary， but they don't provide enough fuel for the hard physical work we do． Although we have venison（鹿肉） now， I can't always count on getting it． So far this year， our venison has been only road kill from in front of Mrs． Strawberry's farm．

I decide to take the longest way home， down the flood plain of the West Branch of Delaware to Spilkill， my own name for a fast stream， that cascades down the south face of the mountain range I'm on． I need time to think． Perhaps Alice and I should be like the early Eskimos． We should walk， camp and hunt， and when the seasons change， walk on to new food sources． But I love my tree and my mountaintop．

Another solution would be to become farmers， like the people of the Iroquois Confederacy who once lived here． They settled in villages and planted corn and squash（南瓜）， bush beans and berries． We already grow groundnuts in the damp soil and squash in the poor land． But the Iroquois also hunted game． I can't do that anymore

I'm back where I started from．

Slowly climb the Spillkill． As I hop from rock to rock beneath shady basswoods and hemlocks， I hear the cry of the red﹣tailed hawk who nests on the mountain crest． I am reminded of Frightful and my heart aches． I can almost hear her call my name， Cree， cree， car﹣ree．

Maybe l can get her back if l beg the man who is in charge of the peregrines（游隼） university． "But it's the law，" he would say． L could write to the president of the United states and ask him to make an exception of Alice and me． That won't work． The president swore to upload the constitution（宪法） and laws of the United States when he took office．

I climbed on． I must stop thinking about the impossible and solve the problem of what to do now． I must find a new way to provide for us． Frightful is going to be in good hands at the university and she will have young．

I smile at the thought of little Frightfuls and lift my reluctant feet．

When I am fat above the river，1take of my clothes and moccasins（鹿皮鞋） and bathe in a deep， clear pool until I am refreshed and thinking more clearly． Climbing up the bank， I dress and sit down． I breath deeply of the mountain air and try to solve my problem more realistically．

“Love your neighbor as yourself”is a saying familiar to most of us. It means that you must have he ability to love and accept yourself in order to form and keep satisfying relationship with others self-esteem means accepting yourself for who you really are, and believing that you are indeed a worthwhile person who is deserving of love and respect from others.

Self-esteem is our sense of how good we feel about ourselves. It is based on our judgment of ourselves, not on other people's assessment, but simply on our own. Our self-esteem is not dependant on our talent. Some very ordinary people feel very good about themselves, while other extraordinarily high achievers hold low opinions of themselves.

Self-esteem is the primary key to long-term stress management. Why? The first three sources of stress are: predictable life event, unexpected changes and build-up of daily stresses, These are much easier to handle when we believe in ourselves, A positive, healthy self-esteem gives us the “hardiness”(强健) to deal with the difficulties of life, and to see them as challenges to be met, rather than threats to be feared.

The forth category of stress is entirely the result of a low self-esteem. It is the category of stress that is most common and tiring over the long run. This kind of stress cannot be overcome, or even changed, until the self-esteem problems that cause it are corrected.

Learning to love yourself for who you are is the key to overcoming stress. Self-esteem comes form the self, and cannot be promoted by others. A person who feels that his self-esteem comes from the approval of those around him or her is bound to self-destruct(自毁), One cannot keep the level of “performance” required to please everyone else, especially if that performance disagrees with who you are and is simply a facade that makes you popular with the world. When the applause is gone, there is nothing left.

Only those who can feel the strength of knowing who they are and those who can feel good about that will survive the stresses of life. Self-esteem is the basis of contentment and positive living.

Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mother, you must come to see the daffodils(黄水仙)before they are over”. I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from Laguna to Lake Arrowhead. “I will come next Tuesday,” I promised, a little reluctantly, on her third call.

Next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn’s house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, “ Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible in the clouds and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!”

My daughter smiled calmly and said, “We drive in this all the time, Mother. You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”

After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small gravel road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand-lettered sign that read, “Daffodil Garden.”

We got out of the car and each took a child’s hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most glorious sight. There were five acres of flowers. “But who has done this?” I asked Carolyn. “It’s just one woman,” Carolyn answered. “That’s her home.” Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A- frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio(露台), we saw a poster. “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.

The first answer was a simple one. “50,000 bulbs(球茎),” it read. The second answer was, “One at a time, by one woman.” The third answer was, “Began in 1958.”

I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than forty years before, had begun—one bulb at a time—to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top.

1. The author didn’t go to see the daffodils at first because__________.

A. she was not interested in them     B. they were growing on a mountain top

C. the weather was not good enough  D. it was a long drive to her daughter’s house

2. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling seeing the daffodils?

A. Amazed.         B. Disappointed.   C. Confused.      D. Moved.

3. What do we know about the woman living in the A-frame house?

A. She must be out of mind.

B. She acted as a gardener here.

C. It took her great determination to grow the daffodils.

D. She was poor and made her living by selling daffodils.

4. What would be the best title of the passage?

A. A Wonderful Daffodil Garden       B. A Remarkable Woman

C. One Bulb at a Time                     D. I Love Daffodils

Across the United Kingdom, as the COVID-19 crisis has bitten deeper, its citizens have started a new practice: Emerging from self-isolation every Thursday night at 8 p.m. to clap, cheer, and bang pots and pans to show support for the country’s front-line doctors and nurses.

But as the death toll today hit a single-day U.K. record of 980-and with the peak death rate still estimated to be two weeks away-the crisis caused by the scale of the pandemic has been worsened here by a new degree of political uncertainty. Prime Minister Boris Johnson was admitted to the hospital on Sunday and has spent his days and nights in intensive care fighting the virus, surrounded by the doctors and nurses of the National Health Service.

The U.K. is not alone in showing new found public affection for key workers, nor in facing an unprecedented public health emergency that has, in Europe, especially affected Italy, Spain, and France. A recent U.K. government appeal for 250,000 volunteers to help the NHS (National Health Service) yielded an army of 750,000 would-be helpers.

But the pandemic finds the U.K. at a politically uncertain moment, as a nation finally emerging from three and a half years of political issue over its chaotic departure from the European Union. A December election that gave a decisive victory to Mr. Johnson and the ruling Conservative Party added clarity to a Brexit mandate and was seen by many as a potential first step in healing deep divisions in Britain’s political and social structure.

Acknowledging the impact of the coronavirus on daily lives, Queen Elizabeth II, in a rare address　 on Sunday, praised the “national spirit” and thanked NHS and care workers, whose “every hour” of hard work “brings us closer to a return to a more normal time.” Calling on citizens to “remain united and resolute” to overcome the pandemic, she sought to provide comfort. “While we may have still more to endure, better days will return We will meet again,” she said.

1.What contributed to worsening the current crisis in the U.K?

A.The pandemic of COVID-19. B.Political instability.

C.The vote for Brexit. D.The December election.

2.The British showed widespread support to the fight against coronavirus EXCEPT by　 .

A.clapping, cheering, and banging pots and pans every Thursday night

B.advocating volunteers to help the NHS

C.organizing 750,000 helpers to join the army

D.praising the “national spirit” in Queen’s speech

3.It can be inferred from the passage that　 .

A.The death toll set a new single-day record and the peak death had arrived

B.Prime Minister Boris Johnson was receiving good medical treatment

C.the COVID-19 has been found in European history

D.Conservative Party has healed the deep political and social divisions

4.Where might the passage come from?

A.A noticeboard. B.A private e-mail.

C.A research paper. D.A newspaper.
