Kathy Ho teaches high school inside Lucile Packard Childrens Hospital Stanford (LPCH). “Sometimes I dont like saying that Im a teacher,” says Ho. “People get in their minds an idea of what teachers do, but thats not really what it is here.”
“Here” is room 386, where each year, about 500 LPCH patients also become students. The hospital school is free of parents, doctors, and medical procedures. Its a place of learning. About half of Hos students stay for a week or less; others are there for more than a year. Most of Hos students will recover, which means that preparing them to return to school is an increasingly important component of care.
Still, in room 386, academics dont come first. Physical health and mental health are the priority. “If youre scared about something and thinking only about that, theres no way youre going to be able to learn,” Ho says. “Im a coach, an adviser, and a comforter, and thats what it means to be a hospital teacher.”
There are up to 30 students at any given time in Hos class. She generally works with their regular teachers to get lessons and tests being used at their home schools. Some teachers dont give the kids any assignments; they express sympathy instead. “I feel like it is a disservice to the kids,” Ho says. “They think their teachers dont care about their schoolwork.”
Ho recognizes the psychological benefit of helping kids keep up with their peers (同龄人) outside the hospital. “I actually think the medicine is only a small piece for some problems,” says Julie Good, director of pain management services at LPCH. “Its about problem-solving around what it means to have a full life. Those kids have dreams. School can keep those dreams alive by giving kids a way to learn and grow.”
( )24.Who does Ho teach at LPCH?
A.Sick children.
B.Young nurses.
C.Medical students.
D.Patients parents.
( )25.What is a characteristic of Hos job?
A.Prioritizing academics.

D.Playing multiple roles.
( )26.What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4?
A.Offering regular lessons.
B.Paying extra attention.
C.Assigning no schoolwork.
D.Showing no sympathy.
( )27.How does the hospital school benefit the students according to Good?
A.It eases peer pressure.

【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了Kathy Ho在斯坦福露西尔·帕卡德儿童医院(LPCH)担任教师的工作情况,介绍了医院学校学生的情况、她工作的特点以及医院学校对学生的益处。
24.A 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“‘Here’ is room 386, where each year, about 500 LPCH patients also become students. The hospital school is free of parents, doctors, and medical procedures. Its a place of learning. About half of Hos students stay for a week or less; others are there for more than a year.

25.D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“Im a coach, an adviser, and a comforter, and thats what it means to be a hospital teacher.”可知,作为医院学校的老师,她同时扮演着 “指导者、顾问、安慰者” 等多个角色,这是其工作的显著特点。故选D。
26.C 代词指代题。根据文章第四段“Some teachers dont give the kids any assignments; they express sympathy instead. .” 可知,部分老师不给孩子布置作业,只表达同情;后文何老师评价 “it is a disservice to the kids”,并解释原因 “他们会觉得老师不关心自己的学业”。由此可推断,“it” 指代的是前文提到的 “不给孩子布置作业” 这一行为。故选C。
27.B 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中Julie Good所说的“Its about problem-solving around what it means to have a full life. Those kids have dreams. School can keep those dreams alive by giving kids a way to learn and grow.”可推知,Good认为医院学校通过让孩子保持学习和成长,帮助他们维系梦想,即帮助孩子们在患病期间依然心怀希望。故选B。

B
“I am not crazy,” says Dr William Farber,shortly after performing acupuncture(针灸)on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive,it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain hell have the last laugh. Hes one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians(兽医) now practising “holistic” medicine—combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic(按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.
Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.
Leigh Tindales dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says,she was prepared to put him to sleep,but Farbers treatments eased her dogs suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months.And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy,“moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.
Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time,and if the past is any indication,he may be right: since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says.“I will do anything to help an animal. Thats my job.”
( )24.What do some of Farbers coworkers think of him?
A.Hes odd.
B.Hes strict.
C.Hes brave.
D.Hes rude.
( )25.Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets?
A.He was trained in it at university.
B.He was inspired by another veterinarian.
C.He benefited from it as a patient.
D.He wanted to save money for pet owners.
( )26.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.Steps of a chiropractic treatment.
B.The complexity of veterinarians work.
C.Examples of rare animal diseases.
D.The effectiveness of holistic medicine.
( )27.Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association?
A.To prove Farbers point.
B.To emphasize its importance.
C.To praise veterinarians.
D.To advocate animal protection.
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了兽医William Farber在从针灸中受益后,奉行中西医结合的整体医学疗法,用针灸、按摩等方式治疗动物并取得了良好疗效。
24.A 推理判断题。根据第一段的“If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods.”可知,Farber的一些同事有时会嘲笑他所使用的不寻常的方法,故他们认为他很怪异。故选A。
25.C 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.”可知,Farber作为患者从针灸中受益,这促使他决定尝试在宠物身上使用针灸。故选C。
26.D 段落大意题。根据第三段内容“Leigh Tindales dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farbers treatments eased her dogs suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, ‘moves more easily and rides more comfortably’ after a chiropractic adjustment.”可知,本段主要讲了两个具体的案例。一个是Farber通过整体医学疗法帮助了患有严重心脏病的狗Charlie,另一个是一匹马Nappy在接受按摩治疗后活动起来更为轻松、骑起来更为舒适。这些例子都是为了说明整体医学疗法对于治疗动物的有效性。故选D。
27.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容“Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700.”可知,Farber认为整体医学疗法会越来越受欢迎,随后作者列举了美国整体兽医协会的会员人数已经从30个增加到700多个的例子,因此推断作者提到美国整体兽医协会是为了证明Farber的观点。故选A。

The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people's wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use.
Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school.
“I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they've gone to bed.
“It's good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I'm enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide.
Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”
Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.”
( )28. What is the purpose of the project?
A.To ensure harmony in care homes.
B.To provide part-time jobs for the aged.
C.To raise money for medical research.
D.To promote the elderly people's welfare.
( )29. How has the project affected Ruth Xavier?
A.She has learned new life skills.
B.She has gained a sense of achievement.
C.She has recovered her memory.
D.She has developed a strong personality.
( )30. What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in Paragraph 7?
A.Improve. B.Oppose.
C.Begin. D.Evaluate.
( )31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs?
A.It is well received.
B.It needs to be more creative.
C.It is highly profitable.
D.It takes ages to see the results.
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了伦敦养老院让老年人照顾母鸡,以防止他们感到孤独,该项目得到广泛认可。
28.D 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people's wellbeing.”可知,这个项目是由当地的一个慈善机构想出来的,目的是减少老年人的孤独感,提升老年人的福祉,故本题答案为D。
29.B 推理判断题。根据第五段Ruth Xavier所说的话“It's good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I'm enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”可知,Ruth Xavier认为,换个关注点是件好事。人们带着他们的孩子来看母鸡,居民们坐在外面看着它们。Ruth Xavier很享受这些创造性的活动,她认为做一些有用的事情感觉很棒,由此可知她很有成就感,故本题答案为B。
30.C 词义猜测题。根据“embark on”定位到第七段,画线短语所在句的主语是Wendy Wilson,由他所说的话“Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”可知,这个项目的想法和创意活动很受老人们的欢迎。他期待着这个项目能给老人们带来好处和乐趣。由此可知,他是这个项目的发起人之一,故本题答案为C。
31.A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions.”可知,该项目的想法和创意活动很受居民的欢迎;同时根据最后一段“We are happy to be taking part in the project.”可知,养老院的经理说他们很高兴能参与到这个项目中来。由此推知,该项目很受欢迎,故选A项。

B
Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.
Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire programme at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honours. Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲)to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. “Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers,” she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that's pretty powerful.
( )4.What did Jennifer do after high school?
A. She helped her dad with his work.
B. She ran the family farm on her own.
C. She supported herself through college.
D. She taught her sisters and brothers at home.
( )5.Why did Jennifer choose the programme at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield?
A. To take care of her kids easily.
B. To learn from the best nurses.
C. To save money for her parents.
D. To find a well-paid job there.
( )6.What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?
A. Her health.
B. Her time with family.
C. Her reputation.
D. Her chance of promotion.
( )7.What can we learn from Jennifer's story?
A. Time is money.
B. Love breaks down barriers.
C. Hard work pays off.
D. Education is the key to success.
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。从小在农场长大的女孩Jennifer Mauer高中毕业后一边工作一边读完技校,还供家中弟妹完成学业。她成家后又重返校园攻读学位,不仅为自己的孩子树立了榜样,也成为家族的荣耀。
4.C 细节理解题。根据题干中的after high school可把该题的出处定位在第二段。根据第二段“After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education.”可知,高中毕业后,Jennifer就读于当地的一所技校,因为家里没有多余的钱用于大学教育,所以她靠打工来支付学费。
5.A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids.”可知,她选择这个课程的原因在于她能开车去上学并且晚上能回家带孩子,即她这么做是为了便于照看孩子,故本题答案为A。
6.B 细节理解题。根据第四段“Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲) to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study.”可知,Jennifer为了实现自己的目标,放弃了许多和孩子待在一起的夜晚,故本题答案为B。
7.C 推理判断题。从小在农场长大的女孩Jennifer Mauer高中毕业后一边工作一边读完技校,还供家中弟妹完成学业。她成家后又重返校园攻读学位,不仅为自己的孩子树立了榜样,也成为家族的荣耀。特别根据最后一段“However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family—and that's pretty powerful.”可得知,付出总有回报。
