Once upon a time, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a man heard that in a faraway place there was a burning holy flame (圣火).

The man continued ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) his journey home and when he had almost reached his house, a terrible storm started. He tried to protect his light from the rain, but in the end his light went out.

Elizabeth Blackwell ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was the first woman doctor in the United States. Her success opened the way for other women who wanted to do more than nursing. She was born in England in 1821 and her family moved to America when she was eleven years old.
The Blackwell ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )girls received the same education as their brothers. This was most unusual in those days. Their father died young and they had very little money to live on. Elizabeth and her sisters taught at school. Then a woman dying of cancer urged Elizabeth to study medicine, saying that a woman doctor would have saved her from her worst sufferings. Nearly everyone said a girl should not go to medical school, but she managed to enter Geneva College in New York State. She graduated in 1849 at the head of her class and received the first medical degree ever given to a woman.
Next, Dr. Bla ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ckwell went to Paris. Her only chance of training was in a hospital where women came to have their babies. Four months later, while she was working in the French hospital, her left eye became dangerously infected (感染). She lost the eye. She was very disappointed. But she was soon back at work again, this time in London, England. There she met many famous scientists.
In 1859, Elizabeth Bl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ackwell was officially recognized as a doctor in Great Britain — the first woman to be honored. She was the inspiration of Elizabeth Garrett, who began the women’s medical movement in England. Florence Nightingale, founder of the practice of nursing by women, was another of her friends.
Dr. Blackwell died in 1910 at the age of 89.

The next day the same ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) thing happened as yesterday. I didn’t have enough money to buy all the new clothes so I just wore the ones I bought yesterday. I didn’t tell anyone because I didn’t think it was a big deal.
I called my friend ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Amber. She told me that I should talk to a doctor. After we were done talking, I went back to the room and fell asleep.
The days went on ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and every day I got smaller and smaller. After about one week I was down to the size of a paper clip (纸夹). I was really worried so I called a doctor. I was too small to dial the phone number. Then I saw a pencil. I pulled the pencil to the phone and used it to dial. It was really heavy, but I managed to do it. My dog was standing next to my bed, so I jumped on my dog’s back. He took me to the doctor’s office. The doctor said he had the cure for it so he gave me some and I grew back to my normal size.
I thanked him an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d then took my dog home. My parents were very worried. I told them the entire story. After that I never ate anything from the forest ever again.

A few years after m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y grandmother passed away, my grandfather let me dig through their old photos. I found a picture that interested me. My beautiful grandmother was dressed nicely, smiling with joy against the ocean. I showed the photo to my grandfather, and a smile appeared on his face.
He told me how my ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) grandmother’s life was when my former grandfather had left her. Her children, including my mother, were very young. My grandmother was forced to move back with her parents and support her family with hardly any income (收入). But through all the suffering, she never got sad. When things would go from bad to worse, she would call her girlfriends, get dressed up, and go to the ocean for the day. Things finally turned around, and she remarried. My grandfather helped raise her children.
That night in bed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at my grandfather’s house, I looked at this photo for hours. I considered what it must have been like for her when her husband went to the grocery store one day and never returned. I thought about how lonely and scared she must have been. But in that photo, I saw none of those feelings. I only saw a beautiful woman entirely enjoying herself and the wonderful beauty around her.
I brought the photo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) home with me, and I keep it at my desk while I follow my dreams. When things start to get difficult, I see my grandmother saying to me, “Go call your girls, get dressed up and enjoy life!” It reminds me of my gifts and why I am here. When I return to my desk, I am happy, ready to deal with my destiny (命运) once again.

D. To learn how to make friends from her grandmother.

Early every morni ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng, a shepherd (牧羊人) took his flock of sheep out in the fields to graze (吃草). He would sit by watching — as the sheep lazily ate fresh grass. After they had eaten, he would round them up and walk back home. Sometimes while watching his flock, he would curl up in a quiet corner and go off to sleep.
One day, the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) shepherd found a wolf eyeing his sheep. However, it was some distance away and it made no effort to come nearer. The shepherd at first stood on guard against the wolf, as against an enemy, and kept a strict watch over its movements.
This continued fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r a while. The shepherd would find the wolf waiting at the edge of the field every morning. But it made not the slightest effort to seize the sheep and would just watch. So, by and by, the shepherd let down his guard a bit. A few days later, he began to actually look forward to the wolf’s presence.
The wolf, who ge ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nerally sat on a large piece of rock, looked like a big sheep dog from afar. The shepherd thought that other wild animals would be scared of the dog’s presence and not harm his flock while it was around.
Now, he began to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )look upon the wolf as a guardian of his flock. One day, in the middle of grazing his sheep, the shepherd was called back home urgently (紧急地). Leaving the sheep entirely in charge of the wolf, he left.
When he came ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )back, what did he find The wolf had eaten most of his flock, with only a few sheep wandering about.
The shepherd sa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t down in shock. “Serves me right,” he said to himself. “After all, I entrusted the welfare (健康) of my flock to a wolf.”
51. When the sheep ate the grass, the shepherd would .
A. find a quiet corner to sleep
B. walk around the flock of sheep to be on guard

52. When the shepherd first saw the wolf, he .
A. was scared and ran away
B. was scared but faced the wolf bravely
C. watched the wolf closely and was on guard
D. didn’t pay attention to the wolf
53. The shepherd regar ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ded the wolf as a guardian of his sheep because .
A. the wolf looked like a big sheep dog from afar
B. the wolf didn’t mean to catch any sheep
C. the wolf got along well with the sheep
D. the wolf often helped him round the sheep up
54. Which of the following can best describe the wolf
A. Cunning (狡猾的) but kind. B. Cruel but helpful.
C. Cunning and cruel. D. Kind and patient.

Saturday, June 7 Fine
This afternoon, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) I was playing in the park when I saw a wallet on a bench. Clearly, someone had left it there by accident. I picked it up and saw what was in it. I found some money and a card with a phone number. Believing that the owner would be worried, I immediately tried the number. A man answered it in an anxious voice. Hearing I had his wallet, he said he would come over right away. Ten minutes later, the man arrived. After making sure he was the owner, I handed the wallet back to him. With his thumb up, he expressed his thanks to me repeatedly. I felt happy that I was able to help.
