The author was Agatha Christie, a gentle married lady and one of the most successful writers of detective stories in the world.In June 1977 , a baby girl became seriously ill in Qatar (卡塔尔) , near Sandi Arabia(沙特阿拉伯) . Doctors were unable to find out the cause of her illness, so she was flown to London and sent to Hammersmith Hospital. A team of doctors hurried to examine the baby only to discover that they, too, were puzzled by the very unusual signs of illness. While they were having a discussion about the babys illness, a nurse asked to speak to them.Excuse me, said Nurse Marsha Maitland, but I think the baby is suffering from thallium poisoning(铊中毒) .What makes you think that? Dr. Brown asked. Thallium poisoning is very rare.A few days ago, I was reading a novel calledA Pale Horse by Agatha Christie, Nurse Maitland explained.“In the book, somebody uses thallium poison, and all the signs are exactly the same as the baby s .”You are very careful and you may be right, another doctor said. Well carry out some tests and find out whether it s thallium(铊) or not.Tests showed that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium. Once they knew the cause of the illness, the doctors were able to give the baby the correct treatment. She soon recovered and was sent back to Qatar. Later on it was proved that the poison might have e from an insecticide(杀虫剂) used in Qatar.1. Who first suggested the correct cause of the babys illness?A. A Doctor in Qatar. B. Nurse Maitland. C. Dr. Brown. D. Agatha Christie.2. Why was the baby sent to London?A.She was a British girl whose parents were working in Qatar.B.The hospitals in Qatar were full at that time.C.She was the daughter of a doctor in one of the places.D.The Qatar doctors were not sure they could cure her.3. As far as we can tell from passage, Agatha Christie_.A.had never even met this baby.B.had spent a long time as a police officer.C.visited the baby in the hospital at Hammersmith.D. gave Nurse Maitland some advice on the phone .4. Why Nurse Maitland spoke to the doctors ?A.when she heard them discussing the possibility of thallium poison.B.because she could see that the doctors had made a mistake.C.to suggest a possible reason for the patient s illness.D.after she had read about a horse which had been poisoned.5.What did the doctor think of the suggestion which Nurse Maitlandmade?A.They were very quick to agree with her.B.They were unhappy over her interruption.C.They said that she was wrong because thallium poisoning is very rare.D.They thought it was a possibility worth considering.B In sport the sexes(性别)are separate. Women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men. That at least is what people say. Women are called the weaker sex, or, if men want to please them, the fair sex. But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68. Are womens bodies really weaker?The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Womens time are always slower than mens, but some facts are a surprise. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teenage girls. One of them swam 400 metres in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16.The firstTartanin film was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 49.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone (荷尔蒙)injections(注射). At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very plicated(复杂的) when there are two separate sexes!6.Women are called the weaker sex because _ .A.women do as much as menB.people think women are weaker than menC.sport is easier for men than for womenD.in sport the two sexes are always together7.Which of the following is true?A.Boys and girls study separately everywhere.

What problems does sport have? A.Some women athletes are actually men.B.Some women athletes are give hormone injections. C.Women and men do not run or swim in the same races.D.It is difficult to check whether women athletes are really women.10. In this passage the author implies that _A.women are weaker than wen , but fasterB.women are slower than men, but strongerC.men are not always stronger and faster than womenD.men are faster and stronger than womenC Too many people want others to be their friends, but they dont give friendship back. That is why some friendships dont last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous (宽宏大量的)；be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you dont tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you havent been honest, you may lose your friends trust.Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You dont have to give your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoy, like our hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them you help your friend know you better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friends place so you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are ever exactly alike(相同).But all true friendships have three things in mon. If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.11.
