During my second month of nursing school, our teacher gave us a pop test as usual.I was a serious, hard-working and careful student, so I passed the questions easily until I read the last one, "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"I thought this was sure some kind of joke. I saw the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark hair and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank.Before the class ended, one student named Nancy asked our teacher if the last question would count toward our test grade. This was also all the students' question. We all wondered why he gave this question in the test, because we all felt it meaningless."Certainly," said our teacher. "In your life you will meet many people. All of them are important. They should get your attention and care, even if all you do is smile or just say an easy 'hello' ." We all kept silent after hearing this.I've never forgotten that special lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.（1）What will the writer be when she graduates according to the passage?A .

They went out every day. Sometimes they killed animals and sometimes animals killed them. Life was difficult and dangerous. Women had to go out every day, too. They collected roots, fruit and grass. Then, one day more than 10,000 years ago, a woman dropped some grassseeds near her home in the Middle East. They grew, and the first wheat was 37 . The idea grew, too. Women planted roots and fruit trees. Then they could stay at home and look after the children and the animals. Women like baby animals. Archaeologists think that women 38 the first domestic animals: dogs, cows sheep and goats. That idea grew, too. Then their husbands did not have to go hunting for meat. They stayed at home.

What do you know about exercise?Some people think that in case you want to reduce the waistline, the best way is to do waist exercises. In fact, exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one p41．of body. When you reduce the fat t42．your body, you will certainly reduce your waistline, too! Exercise only twice a week is not enough, because unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. After 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to keep good physical fitness. So if you have enough time, exercise every day is best.Some people think that in order to lose weight you should always "work up a good sweat" when exercising. That is a w 43．idea. Sweating only lowers body temperature so that you won’t overheat; it does not help you reduce your weight. After exercise, you ma y weigh less, but this is b44．of water loss. Once you replace the water, you replace the weight.Exercise is very important for everyone. It keeps us healthy. One of the best exercises is walking. Walking helps circulation of blood throughout the body, and it has a direct e 45．on your feeling of health. And if your breathing does not return to normal in minutes after you finish exercising, that means you have exercised too m 46．. You’d better spend 20minutes a day exercising, and that will keep you feeling good.七、阅读回答问题Answer the questions.For millions of people, the American dream of owning a home seemed to be slipping out of reach.“Maybe young couples can no longer afford to buy a ready-made house as their parents did,’’ says 40-year-old building instructor Pat Hennin. “But they can still have a home. Like their pioneer ancestors, they can build it themselves, and at less than half the cost of aready-made house.”The owner-builders came from every occupational group, although surprisingly few are professional building workers. Many take the plunge with little or no experience. “I learned how to build my house from reading books,” says John Brown, who built a six-room home for $25,000 in High Falls, New Jersey. “If you have patience and the carpent ry（木工）skill to make a bookcase, you can build a house.”An astonishing 50 percent of these owner builders hammer every nail, 1ay every pipe, and wire every switch with their own hands. The rest contract （承包）for some parts of the task. But even those who just act as contractors and finish the insides of their homes can save from 30 percent to 45 percent of what a ready-made home would cost.One survey revealed that 60 percent of owner-builders also design their homes. Many others buy commercial house plans for less than $100 or use plans available from the U. S. Department of Agriculture.47．Maybe American young people can’t afford to buy a ready-made house, can they?________________________________________________________________48．How can American young couples have a home?________________________________________________________________49．Are all the owner-builders experienced?________________________________________________________________50．Why do the owner-builders build houses with their own hands?________________________________________________________________51．How many percent of the owner-builders design their homes?________________________________________________________________52．How much does a commercial house plan cost?________________________________________________________________参考答案1．D【解析】【详解】句意：这个编辑写了一篇800字的文章，这篇文章在报纸上出版了。

Three Chinese astronauts made a jubilant return to Earth on Sunday after successfully completing the country's first-ever spacewalk, The sole task of the spacewalk mission commander Zhai Zhigang was to retrieve a rack attached to the outside of the orbital module and he remained outside for about 13 minutes. CCTV showed the astronauts emerge from their re-entry capsule, which floated gently down under a giant red-and-white-striped parachute, and wave at cameras as they celebrated the end of the mission. Zhai, Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng stayed inside for about 46 minutes to adapt to Earth's gravity before crawling out of the narrow entrance. The space walk, which was broadcast live and watched by crowds gathered around outdoor television screens, further stoked national pride one month after the close of the Beijing Olympics. "A small step by Zhai Zhigang in space is a big step in the history of the Chinese nation," said a commentary by Xinhua News Agency. On most newspaper front pages were pictures of Zhai clutching a Chinese flag as he hovered in space outside the Shenzhou 7 vessel. While successful, the spacewalk wasn't without anxious moments.74.
