Hana al—Shaibani was born on August 27, 1942.She was the only girl in her family, having two older and two younger brothers.Her father, a politician and journalist, loved her and played a large role in shaping the woman she grew up to be.
In 1956, Iraq"s Baath party started to grow in popularity.Its slogans declaring liberty, Arab socialism and unity attracted the younger generation, including Hana.Although she was only 14 years old, she turned member of the party-receiving her education with her political activities.During her university years, she worked for the Baath party during the day and attended classes in the evening.
In 1958, following the overthrow of Iraq"s monarchy (君主政治) , Hana rose through the ranks and was chosen to lead the party"s female members.She was just 16.Two years later, she was selected as one of three representatives of the Iraqi Baath party to attend the Arab National Baath Party Conference, held that year in Beirut.Still just a teenager, she had already achieved more than most women from her region could ever imagine.

Sensing trouble, she hid the gun and carried beneath her skirt as she walked down the stairs.Her father begged with her not to go.He explained that as a patriot he understood her sense of duty, but added that his love for her went beyond all else.Hana replied; "Papa, you were once a patriotic man and when you were called upon to fight, you did.Please understand, so that I may go with your blessing rather than without." Her father could not stop her.

Well, Mrs Evans, I’ve done my best to look after David. I’ve tidied his room up every day, got him a meal together whenever he needed one and made sure he’s always had a clean shirt to put on. It’s not been easy, with two of my own to worry about, as well. David had the best of attention, I must say. But now because I asked him to give up bringing that American friend to his home he has got quite and unfriendly. He comes in at all hours and his behaviour—well, it’s quite hard to put up with—and it’s all because of this friend. I’m sure he’s a bad influence. You see, David is a visitor and doesn’t fully understand our ways.
He used to study most evenings. He’s got through quite a bit of work. He did up his room quite nicely, with bookshelves and large posters. He’d ask Mr Smith and me up for a drink and cheer us up with songs from his country. He’s very good at the guitar, you know.
I don’t want to appear as if I’m running after him, but it’s about time we made it up. I’m sure he’s upset because I blame him for that. It might be a good idea to take him out for a meal, perhaps even with his friend. I don’t know whether it will do any good but we can try. I’m glad I’ve had this little chat with you, Mrs Evans, and I’ll let you know how I get on.
小题1:David is          .
A.Mrs Smith’s petB.Mrs Smith’s son
C.a visiting studentD.a singer
小题2:Mrs. Smith wants to make up(化解) the quarrel by _______.
A.cooking a mealB.inviting David and his friend out
C.running after DavidD.giving them drinks
小题3:David’s present attitude to Mrs Smith is     .
A.very attentiveB.unfriendlyC.cheerfulD.excited

I was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”
At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone! ” And she swept it into the wastebasket.
I stood watching her, speechless .What on earth?
She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room-if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”
Then she turned to me, kissed me, and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.
After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood(情绪)had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him calmly.
