MOTHER OF TEN THOUSAND BABIES
“Life is precious ... To_a_person_nothing_is_more_precious_than_their_life,_
and_if_they_entrust_me_with_that_life,_how_could_I_refuse_that_trust,_saying_I'm_cold,_hungry,_or_tired ?”[1] These words of Dr Lin Qiaozhi give us a look into the heart of this amazing woman, and what carried her through a life of hard choices.
[1]这句话使用“否定词+比较级+than...”结构,其含义相当于最高级;if引导条件状语从句,现在分词短语saying...作伴随状语
As a fiveyearold girl, Lin Qiaozhi was deeply affected by her mother's death. At age 18, instead of following the traditional path of marriage like the majority of girls, she chose to study medicine. “Why should girls learn so much? Finding a good husband should be their final goal!” her brother complained, thinking of the high tuition fees. She responded,“I'd rather stay single to study all my life!”
Eight years later, Lin graduated from Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) with the Wenhai Scholarship, the highest prize given to graduates. She immediately became the first woman ever to be hired as a resident physician in the OB-GYN department of the PUMC Hospital. Within six months, she was named a chief resident physician,a position that usually took four years to achieve. After working for a few years, she was sent to study in Europe and then, in 1939, in the US. She greatly impressed her American colleagues, who invited her to stay. Dr Lin, however, rejected the offer. She wanted to serve the women and children at home.
In 1941, Dr Lin became the first Chinese woman ever to be appointed director of the OB—GYN department of the PUMC Hospital, but just a few months later, the department was closed because of the war. Thinking of all the people still in need of help, Dr Lin opened a private clinic. She charged very low fees to treat patients and often reduced costs for poor patients. At times she was even seen riding a donkey to faraway villages to provide medical care.
The new People's Republic of China saw Dr Lin Qiaozhi playing a key role. In 1954, she was elected to the first National People's Congress and, over the next several decades, she held many important positions. Her heart, however, was elsewhere. She was more interested in tending patients, publishing medical research on care for women and children, and training the next generation of doctors. “The OB—GYN department cares for two lives,”she told new staff in her department. “As doctors, we should be responsible for the patients and treat them as our sisters.”
Though_Lin_Qiaozhi_never_married,_she_was_known_as_the_“mother_of_ten_thousand_babies”,_having_delivered_over_50,000_babies_in_her_lifetime . [2] Dr Lin did not retire until the day she died, 22 April 1983. Since she had no children of her own,she left her savings to a kindergarten and a fund for new doctors. And even as_she_lay_dying , her final thoughts were for others. “I'm ready to go,” she said. “Don't try to rescue me any more. Don't waste the medicine any more.”
[2]这句话是一个主从复合句,though引导让步状语从句,having delivered...作原因状语。万婴之母
“生命是宝贵的。……对一个人来说,没有什么比他们的生命更加珍贵了,如果他们把生命托付给我,我怎么能拒绝这种信任呢?说我冷、我饿、我累吗?”林巧稚医生这一席话使我们得以窥见这位非凡女性的内心世界,并了解是什么支撑她度过充满艰难抉择的一生。
五岁的时候,母亲的去世让林巧稚刻骨铭心。18岁时,她没有像大多数女孩一样走传统的结婚道路,而是选择了学医。一想到高昂的学费,她哥哥就抱怨, “为什么女孩子要学这么多?找到一个好丈夫才应该是她们的归宿!”她回答说: “为了终身学习我宁愿单身!”
八年后,林巧稚从北京协和医学院毕业时,拿到了毕业生所能得到的最高奖励——“文海”奖学金。北京协和医学院立即聘请她任该院妇产科住院医师,她也成了第一位担任此职的女性。在六个月内,她就被任命为主任住院医师。这一职位通常需要四年才能获得。工作几年后,她被派往欧洲学习,然后在1939年,赴美国学习。她给她的美国同事留下了极其深刻的印象。他们邀请她留下来。然而,林医生拒绝了这个提议。她想为国内的妇女和儿童服务。
1941年,林医生成为第一位被任命为北京协和医学院妇产科主任的中国妇女。但就在几个月后,该科室因战争而关闭。想起所有那些仍需要帮助的人,林医生就开了一家私人诊所。她给人看病收费很低,经常降低贫困病人的费用。有时人们甚至会看到她骑着驴到遥远的村庄给人们看病。
新生的中华人民共和国见证了林巧稚医生发挥的关键作用。1954年,她当选为第一届全国人民代表大会代表。在接下来的几十年里,她担任了许多重要的职务。然而,她的心却在别处。她对照顾病人、发表有关妇幼保健的医学研究(报告),以及培训下一代医生更感兴趣。“妇产科要照顾两条生命,”她对科里新来的工作人员说。 “作为医生,我们应该对病人负责,像对待自己的姐妹一样对待她们。”
林巧稚虽然从未结婚,但她被誉为“万婴之母”,一生共接生五万多名婴儿。林医生一辈子奋斗在工作岗位上,直到她在1983年4月22日走完了她的一生。由于没有自己的孩子,她把积蓄留给了一所幼儿园和作为一笔新医生基金。即使在她弥留之际,她最后惦念的仍是其他人。 “我准备好走了。”她说,“别再救我了。别再浪费药了。”

A
Many years ago, my dad was facing a serious heart condition. He was unable to do a steady job. He suddenly fell ill and had to be admitted to the hospital.
He wanted to do something to keep himself busy, so he decided to volunteer at the local children's hospital. My dad loved kids. It was a perfect job for him. He ended up working with the seriously ill children. He would talk, play, and do arts with them.
One of his kids was a girl with a rare disease that paralyzed(使瘫痪) her from the neck down. She couldn't do anything, and she was very depressed. My dad decided to try to help her. He started visiting her in her room, bringing paints, brushes and paper. He stood the paper up, put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint. He didn't use his hands at all. All the while he would tell her, “See, you can do anything you set your mind to.” At the end of the day, she began to paint using her mouth, and she and my dad became friends. Soon after, the little girl was sent home because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her. My dad also left the children's hospital for a little while because he became ill. Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work, in came the little girl who had been paralyzed and only this time she was walking. She ran straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight. She gave him a picture she had done using her hands. At the bottom it read: “Thank you for helping me walk.”
My dad would cry, every time he told us this story and so would we. He would say sometimes love is more powerful than doctors, and my dad-who died just a few months after the little girl gave him the picture—loved every single child in that hospital.

Mary Lyon was a leader in women's education in the nineteenth century. It was a time when women's education was not considered important in the United States. The State did require each town to provide a school for children, but there were not enough teachers. Most young women were not able to continue their education. If they did, they often were not taught much except the French language, how to sew clothing, and music.
Mary Lyon felt that women's education was extremely important. She believed women were teachers both in the home and in the classroom. Mary opened a school for young women in the village of Buckland. She suggested new ways of teaching, including holding discussion groups for students.
Then, Mary began to raise money for her dream school for the higher education of women. This school would own its own property(财产), guided by an independent(独立的) group of directors. Its finances(财力) would be the responsibility of the directors. It would not depend on any one person to continue. And, the students would share in cleaning and cooking to keep costs down. In 1837, Mary Lyon opened Mount Holyoke Female Seminary for women. In 1859, she passed away. In 1893, 34 years after her death, under a state law, Mount Holyoke Female Seminary became the first college to offer women the same kind of education as men.
Mary's efforts led to the spread of higher education for women in the United States. Her influence lasted as the many students from her school went out to teach others.
[语篇解读] 本文介绍了一位女性教育的领导者,她为争取美国女性与男性获得同样的教育机会作出了卓越的贡献。她的影响一直持续至今。
5.What was the American women's problem with education in the 19th century?
A.Teachers were careless about teaching.
B.They had few choices about the subjects.
C.The government paid no attention to education.
D.They had no chance to continue their education.
解析:B [细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后两句“Most young women were not able to continue their education.If they did,they often were not taught much except the French language,how to sew clothing,and music.”可知,大多数年轻女性无法继续接受教育。即使她们能接受教育,除了法语、如何缝制衣服和音乐之外,她们通常不会学到多少东西。所以她们对学习的科目几乎没有选择权。故选B项。]
6.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.Mary thought little of women's education.
B.Mary preferred women to be educated at home.
C.Mary attached importance to women's education.
D.Group discussions were not held in Mary's school.
解析:C [推理判断题。根据第二段中“Mary Lyon felt that women's education was extremely important... Mary opened a school for young women in the village of Buckland.”可知,Mary Lyon认为女性的教育极其重要。根据Mary Lyon在巴克兰村为年轻女性开办了一所学校可以推断出她很重视女性的教育。故选C项。]
7.What was Mary's dream school like?
A.It would have very strict rules.
B.It would be independent in finance.
C.It would be owned by the government.
D.It would depend on some important person.
解析:B [细节理解题。根据第三段中“This school would own its own property(财产),guided by an independent(独立的)group of directors. Its finances(财力) would be the responsibility of the directors.It would not depend on any one person to continue.”可知,这所学校将拥有自己的财产,由一个独立的董事小组指导。它的资金将由这些董事们负责,不会依靠任何一个人而存在。所以Mary Lyon理想的学校在资金上是独立的,不依靠别人。故B选项正确。]
8.Why is Mary still remembered by Americans?
A.She set up the first college.
B.She made women equal to men.
C.She helped to pass American education law.
D.She improved American women's education.
解析:D [推理判断题。根据最后一段“Mary's efforts led to the spread of higher education for women in the United States.Her influence lasted as the many students from her school went out to teach others.”可知,Mary的努力使很多美国女性接受了高等教育。她的影响一直持续至今,她创办的学校的许多毕业生都成了老师。因此,Mary因为改善了美国女性的教育而被美国人铭记。故选D项。]
