He asked me if my husband and I could take care of her. He thought his daughter would be able to improve her English munication skills in this way.After days of thinking, we agreed. He then brought her here and left after 3 days. I thought that my bosss daughter was well-mannered, but that was wrong.After a month of staying in the Philippines, she started to show her true colors. When my husband asked her what she wanted for breakfast, she answered him in a rude way. From then on, we experienced fights at home. There was a time when we didnt talk to her for a week as a punishment of not being good to us. What I hated most was that she didnt care about other peoples feelings. She ate ahead of us when we were still working and didnt leave anything for us. So we had to separate her food from ours to avoid such a problem.The worst thing about her was that she shouted at us. I was wondering if she did this to her parents. We told this to her parents, but unfortunately I didnt think that solved the problem. This situation lasted for almost 8 months. Our patience (耐心) was tested during that time.We tried to teach her everything we could to make her a better person, but I guess 8 months may not be enough. We even tried to understand her and adjust (调整) for her, but it didnt work . I just hope that she learned something from us and from other Filipinos.1. This passage is mainly about the writers experience of .A. trying to please her bossB. changing a girls bad behaviorC. dealing with a teenage girl staying in her houseD. improving her munication skills2. Why did the boss want his daughter to stay with the writer?A. Because he was too busy to take care of his daughter.B. Because he wanted his daughter to take a holiday there.C. Because he wanted the writer to teach his daughter good manners.D. Because he wanted his daughter to improve her English in this way.3. What do the examples in Paragraph 3 tell us?A. The writer and her husband were careless.B. The daughter wasnt behaving well.C. The writer and her husband hated children.D. The daughter tried her best to make others happy.4. The underlined word “that ” in Paragraph 4 refers to .A. being patient with herB. her parents punishing herC. asking her parents about herD. telling her parents about her behaviorBWhy do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that mens hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that womens longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old womans heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old ones.“This gender(性别) difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. “The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,” said Goldspink.The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles being smaller and weaker as they age.5. The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to “_”.A. long life B. health C. ageing D. effect6. The text mainly talks about _.A. mens heart cells B. womens ageing processC. the gender difference D. hearts and long life7. According to the text, the UK scientists have known that _.A. women have more cells than men when they are bornB. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beatC. women never lose their pumping power with ageD. the female heart loses few of the cells with ageCWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortings. Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasnt a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didnt you ever wonder what youre really like ? Well, you now have that girls opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldnt change (like being very thin), but a good number I couldand suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to a fairly clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “Thats just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, youll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Dont shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.” Daddys advice has returned to me at many important moments.

Then he said, “Excuse me too I wasnt 21 watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went 22 our way after saying goodbye.But at 23 , a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I 24 the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I 25 knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown (皱眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart 26 . I didnt realize how rudely I had spoken. That night, when I lay 27 in bed, Gods quiet voice spoke to me and said, “While 28 with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are QUICK to excite Go look around on the kitchen floor, youll find some flowers there by the 29 . Those are the flowers she brought for you. She 30 them herself pink, yellow, and your favorite blue.
