Florence Nightingale was born on May 12th, 1820 in Florence, Italy. She was born
to a wealthy and well-educated English family. When she was young she became interested in caring for the sick and wanted to work in nursing, but her parents would not allow her to be a nurse. They expected her to get married and live a traditional
woman’s life.
However, Nightingale had made up her mind, so her parents had to give in. When she traveled throughout Europe during her early years, she learned Greek, Latin, French and Italian. She also visited many of the hospitals in these cities and took many notes of the sanitary ( 卫生的) conditions in these hospitals. In 1849, she traveled to Europe
to study the European hospital system. In 1854, she worked as a manager at the Hospital for In-valid Gentlewomen in London.
The following year, the Crimean W ar ( 克里米亚战争) broke out. Florence led 38 nurses and traveled to Scutari to help the wounded soldiers. When they arrived there they found the hospital conditions were very poor. Many of the wounded did not have beds and were lying on the ground. Florence and her nurses managed to improve the conditions. Florence also cared about the social welfare of the soldiers and would visit them during the night after everyone else had gone to sleep. She was referred to as (被称为…)The Lady with the Lamp".
In 1860 she founded the Nightingale School for nurses at St Thomas’Hospital in London. Once the nurses were trained, they were sent to hospitals all over Britain where they introduced what they had learnt. Nightingale’s concerns for sanitation, military (军队的)health and hospital planning practices are still in existence today. She died on the
13th August
1910.

family.

It is easy to understand, although you can ’t hear it. It is sign language.

Farming was once the chief way of life in nearly every country. People cannot live without food, and nearly all their food comes from crops and animals raised on farms. Many other materials such as cotton and wool also come from plants and animals raised on farms. Not many people farm for a living any more, but farming remains the most important work in the world at present.
Before the nineteenth century, the typical American family lived on a small farm. They raised pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, and planted corn, beans, fruits, garden vegetables, rice, and wheat. Everyone worked long and hard, but the results were often poor. Families harvested just enough food for themselves. This situation began to change during the last half of the 1800’s and it changed remarkably ( 明显地) in the following century.
Scientific methods and labor-saving（节省劳力的）machinery have made
farming increasingly productive(多产的) in the US. The development of improved plant varieties and chemical fertilizers (肥料) has helped double and even triple (三倍) the production of some major crops. More scientific animal care and animal raising have helped increase the amount of meat and other products animals produce. At the same time, the use of tractors and other modern farm equipment has sharply reduced the need for farm labor.
33. W e are told in the first paragraph about .
A. the history of farming
B. the importance of farming
C. the development of farming
D. the changes of farming
34. Which of the following describes American farming before the 19th century?
A. Farmers didn’t work hard on their
farms. B. Farmers used tractors to help
them.
C. Farming was the main way of living .(生活；生存；生计)for most people.
D. Farmers could supply materials to industry.
35. The underlined word "increasingly" in the third paragraph probably means " ".
A. worst
B. worse and worse
C. less and less
D. more and more

Summer safety tips for children
Summer is a time for having fun in the sun! Children should be able to have fun but they should also be safe. Here are some helpful tips all parents should discuss with their children.

strangers
36 If someone suspicious (可疑的) that they don’t know comes up to them,
they
should immediately either run away if they are alone or go somewhere where there are other people.
Keep cool in the
heat
If your children must be outdoors in extreme heat, make sure that activities should be limited to 15 minutes. 37 Remember to ask them to drink some every 20 minutes even if they do not feel thirsty.
Water
safety
For children who cannot swim, they should not go into the deep area of the water. And they should also play at places where there are lifeguards( 救生员). This way if something were to happen, they would have someone there to help them.

40

a young age. Summer time gives them more time to stay with their friends who may offer them drugs or alcohol. Remember to tell your children the terrible health effects they have on their body.

dangerous. D. Of course, water is

Dear Lucy,
I am sorry to hear that you have decided to drop out of school. I am writing to persuade you not to do that and hope you can continue your studies. The reasons are as follows.
First of all, as a student, our studies must come first. To receive education at school at present will have a long-lasting influence on our future. Second, all of us will meet with difficulties in our lives and thus we must accept the challenges and try to overcome them. Third, there are many ways to help you get through the present difficult situation. For example, you can apply for student loans or take part-time jobs.
There is no doubt that I will try my best to help you. In short, I do hope you can take my suggestion into consideration and make a final decision.
Looking forward to your reply.
Y ours, Li Hua。
