阅读理解。      A strange woman comes to my door one day in early March. In this area we often have people selling
things door-to-door, but she doesn"t look like a professional saleswoman. She just smiles and gives a card
to me:"Amy Turner."
      I hold the card and look at her, waiting for an explanation.
      "I"ll paint any animal in your own home," Amy Turner says. "Wouldn"t you like a picture of your loved
one? I"ve had experience of dogs, cats, parrots, prize bulls…"
      "I don"t have any animals," I say as we look past each other. She must be wishing some little cat or dog
would come down the hall. It is the first chance I"ve had to breathe the air outside. In this spring morning
when you wake up, you will find winter is gone.
      "Why are you still in your dressing gown?" She asks. "It"s nearly lunchtime. Are you ill?"
      "I"m fine," I lie. I"m not going to tell a stranger I"ve just been sick in the toilet (厕所) upstairs. I was still
sticking my fingers down my throat if the doorbell hadn"t rung. But now I"m not sure what to do next. She
is still standing there. She doesn"t seem to be leaving.
      "I"m hungry," she says and I smile politely, nodding my head before saying goodbye.
      "No," she puts her foot in the door. "I"m really hungry. I"ve had nothing to eat for two days and no one
has any animal for me to paint. I need some food or I"ll fall down, right here on your doorstep."
      I stand to one side and let her in. 1. Who came to the writer"s home one day? [     ]
A. A saleswoman.
B. A strange woman.
C. An animal lover.
D. A professional woman. 2. What did the woman want to do? [     ]
A. To sell things to the writer.
B. To give the card to the writer.
C. To help the writer who was ill.
D. To paint an animal for the writer. 3. When did the story happen?[     ]
A. Early in the morning.
B. Late in the morning.
C. Early in the winter.
D. Late in the winter. 4. When the woman came, the writer _____. [     ]

      It was the afternoon of December 24, the day before Christmas, and as the newest doctor in our office,
I had to work. The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our
waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating (约会)-a dozen long-stemmed red roses.
      As I was cleaning my office, I was told a lady urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I
noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband-a
prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient. She told me she wasn"t allowed to visit her husband in prison
and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy"s father sit in the waiting room with
her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment (约见). Since my schedule wasn"t full, I agreed.
After all, it was Christmas Eve.
      A short time later, her husband arrived-with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as
bodyguards. The woman"s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside
her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the
prisoner back to my office. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly
could have done to be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.
      At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed
back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact that he hadn"t been able
to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.
      I"ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed
roses. I"m not sure who experienced the most joy-the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in
having the opportunity to share in this special moment.

1. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?

[ ]

A. The writer was a newcomer to her office.
B. A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.
C. She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.
D. She was at work with a light heart.

2. The young woman came to the writer"s office for the purpose of _____.

[ ]

A. having her baby examined
B. giving her husband a chance to make his escape
C. having her husband examined
D. getting a chance for her family to get together

3. The underlined part in Paragraph 3 most probably means "_____".

[ ]

A. to be sent to hospital
B. to be separated from his family
C. to be comfortable
D. to become a prisoner

4. What does the writer learn from the story?

[ ]

A. The wife experienced the most joy in receiving.
B. An act of kindness can mean a lot.
C. The prisoner was treated with mercy.
D. Whoever breaks the law should be punished.

Three Frenchmen were sitting together to talk about their experience in England. The first said, "I once heard someone shout, "Look out." I put my head out of a window and a bucketful of water fell on me. It seems that "Look out" may mean "don"t look out"."

When the third came back half an hour later, the maid said, "He is not down yet." Then the third said, "If he"s not up and he"s not down, where is he?"
