职称英语样题(综合类)第一部分阅读理解 (75分) 第一篇 Hercules Once upon a time there was a great Greek hero, Hercules. He was taller and stronger than anyone you have ever seen. On his shoulder he carried a club and in his hand he held a bow. He was known as the hero of a hundred adventures. Hercules served a king. The king was afraid of him. So again and again he sent him on difficult tasks. One morning the king sent for him and told him to fetch three golden apples for him from the garden of the Singing Maidens (歌女). But no one knew where the garden was. So Hercules went away. He walked the whole day and the rest day and the next. He walked for months before he saw mountains far in the distance one fine morning. One of the mountains was in the shape of a man, with long, long legs and arms and huge shoulders and a bugs head. He was bolding up the sky. Hercules knew it was Atlas, the Mountain God. So he asked him for help. Atlas answered, 'My head and arms and shoulders all ache. Could you hold up the sky while I fetch the golden apples for you?' Hercules climbed the mountain and shouldered the sky. Soon the sky grew very heavy. When finally Atlas came back with three golden apples, he said, 'Well , you are going tocarry the mountain for ever. I'm going to see the king with the apples.' Hercules knew that he couldn't fight him because of the sky on his back. So he shouted: ' Just one minute's help. My shoulders are hurting. Hold the sky for a minute while I make a cushion (垫子) for my shoulders.' Atlas believed him. He threw down the apples and help up the sky.

In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to be. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast when they can. But in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different when one wants to walk. At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London's Oxford Street. But the streets near Ginza in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, andsometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and everybody wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty. Most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time. On a London train you would see everybody reading a newspaper. In Tokyo trains everybody in a seat seems to be asleep, whether his journey is long or short. In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now. instead, I am surprised at myself: I must go there next year on business. I know I hate the overcrowded city. But I feel like a man who is returning to his long-lost love.6. Tokyo is different from London in that ____________. ○A. it has a smaller population ○B. it is an international city ○C. it is more difficult to go somewhere on foot in Tokyo ○D. its people are friendlier and more polite.7. What time does the writer think is the worst time to go into the street? ○A. When the night-clubs are closing. ○B. At 8 o'clock in the morning. ○C. When the train is overcrowded. ○D. At 11:30 a.m.8. What does the writer say about Japanese trains? ○A. They are very nice and fortable. ○B. There are not enough trains. ○C. They often run behind schedule. ○D. They leave and arrive at the right time.9. From the writer's observation, we can see that fires break out in Tokyo _______. ○A. oasionally. ○B. quite frequently ○C. not very often ○D. twice a day10. The writer hates Tokyo mainly because the city_________. ○A. is dirty and the people are impolite ○B.has been seriously polluted ○C. is crowded and noisy ○D. is not modern enough第三篇 The Child Witness Going to court can be frightening, especially if you are a child. You may have to stand up in the witness (证人) box, and swear (发誓) to ___ the truth and answer questions is front of a crowd of adults. It would be even more frightening if you were the victim of a crime and you had to sit in the same courtroom (法庭) as the person aused of attacking you, for instance. So the law in Britain has made it easier for children to act as witnesses. Children are allowed to ___ what they know, from another room in the same courthouse. This way they do not have to face all those people in the courtroom. It works on a closed-circuit (闭路的) television link, which means that the TV only operates inside the court. The child witness sits in a room with a social worker in front of a TV camera. Everyone in the courtroom can see the child on a TV screen, but the child can only see the judge and the lawyers who will ask him or her questions. The system has been so suessful that is will be extended to more courts this year. Another way to make it easy for a child to act awitness is to set up a screen is the court room around the witness box so that the child cannot see the defendant (被告). Information given by children can be very important to a court trial (审判), but before 1988 the law did notreally recognizes that children told the truth. It stated that anything a child said in court had to be supported by other evidence in the case.11. A child witness, if he were the victim of the crime, would be frightened most by ____________. ○A. all the questions he had to answer ○B. the crowd of adults he had to face ○C. the judge and the lawyers ○D. the person aused of attacking him12. The most important point of the new system that made things easier for a child witness is that ______________.○A. he does not see the defendant ○B. he speaks in front of a TV camera ○C. he is in another room is the same courthouse ○D. everyone in the courtroom can see the child13. What does the author think of the new system aording to the third paragraph? ○A. Not very good. ○B. Very suessful. ○C. Just an experiment. ○D. Hardly aeptable.14. Has the law always recognized the importance ofchildren's information in court? ○A. No. ○B. Yes. ○C. Not until 1988. ○D. Before 1988, yes.15. The word 'case' in the last paragraph means __________. ○A. a particular situation ○B. a particular incident ○C.a trial ○D. a box第二部分完成句子 (25分) 根据短文内容完成句子,每个空格只能填一个单词。

2021年职称英语综合类阅读理解练习题及答案
职称英语综合类阅读理解练习题及答案Almost daily, news reports include aounts of public figures or heads of panies being for ___d to say they're sorry. In a re ___nt case, Marge Schott, ___naging partner of the Cincinnati Reds, at first did not want to apologize for her re ___rk that Hitler "was good at the beginning but he just went too far. " Under pressure, she finally said that she regretted her re ___rks "offended ___ny people". Predictably- and especially given her history with such ments- ___ny were not satisfied with this response and suessfully lobbied for her resignation.This particular use of "I'm sorry" has a familiar ring. The other day my hu ___and said to me, "I'm sorry I hurt your feelings." I knew he was really trying. He has learned, through our years together, that apologies are important to me. But he was grinning, because he also knew that "I'm sorry I hurt your feelings" left open the possibility-indeed, strongly suggested-that he regretted not what he did but my emotional reaction. It sometimes seems that he thinks the earth will open up and swallow him if he admits fault.It ___y appear that insisting someone admit fault is like wanting him to humiliate himself. But I don't see it that way, sin ___ it's no big deal for me to say I ___de a mistake and apologize. The problem is that it bees a big deal when he won't.This turns out to be similar to the Japanese view. Following a fender bender, aording to a Times article, the Japanese typically get out of their cars and bow, each claiming responsibility. In contrast, Americans are instructed by their insuran ___ panies to avoid admitting fault. When an American living in Japan did just that-even though he knew he was to blame-the Japanese driver "was so in ___nsed by the American's failure to show contritionthat he took the highly unusual step of suing him."The Japanese driver and I are not the only ones who are offended when someone obviously at fault doesn't just fess up and apologize. A wo ___n who lives in the country told me of a similar reaction. One day she gave her hu ___and something to ___il when he went into town. She stressedthat it was essential the letter be ___iled that day, and he assured her it would. But the next day, when they left the house together, she found her un ___iled letter in the car. He said, "Oh, I forgot to ___il your letter." She was furious-not because he had forgotten, but because he didn't apologize.1. What was Marge Schott for ___d to do?A) To ___ke a prediction of the future.B) To say "Hitler was good at the beginning."C) To say"I'm sorry."D) To count figures.2. The author feltA) her hu ___and regretted the choi ___ he had ___de.B) Her hu ___and regretted what he did.C) Her hu ___and regretted her emotional response.D) Her hu ___and regretted the dirty words he had used.3.Aording to the author, when one ___kes a mistake, he shouldA) admit it and apologize.B) Avoid admitting it.C) Explain it away.D) Make every effort to ___intain his fa ___.4.Aording to the passage, what would Japanese drivers usually do after a car aident?A) They would admit their own faults.B) They would blame each other.C) They would avoid admitting faultsD) They would sue each other.5.What was the wo ___n angry about?A) Her hu ___and's failure to apologize.B) Her hu ___and's failure to ___il the letter.C) Her hu ___and's failure to go into town.D) Her hu ___and's failure to leave the house together with her.CCAAA模板,内容仅供参考。
2021年职称英语阅读判断试题及答案:卫生类
2021年职称英语阅读判断试题及答案:卫生类An Observation and ExplanationIt is worth looking at one or two aspects of the way a mother behaves towards her baby. The usual fondling, cuddling and cleaning requite little comment, but the position in which she holds the baby against her body when resting is rather revealing. Careful studies have shown the fact that 80 per cent of mothers hold their infants in their left arms, holding them against the left side of their bodies. If asked to explain the significance of this preference most people reply that it is obviously the result of the predominance of right-handedness in the population. By holding the babies in their left arms, the mothers keep their dominant arm free for manipulations. But a detailed analysis shows that this is not the case. True, there is a slight difference between right-handed and left-handed females; but not enough to provide an adequate explanation. It emerges that 83 per cent of right-handed mothers hold the baby on the left side, but so do 78 per cent of left-handed mothers. In other words, only 22 per cent of the left-handed mothers have their dominant hands free for actions. Clearly there must be some other, less obvious explanation.The only other clue comes from the fact that the heart is on the left side of the mother's body. Could it be that the sound of her heart-beat is the vital factor? And in what way? Thinking along these lines it was argued that perhaps during its existence inside the body of the mother the unborn baby gets used to the sound of the heart beat. If this is so, then the re-discovery of this familiar sound after birth mighthave a calming effect on the infant, especially as it hasjust been born into a strange and frighteningly new world. If this is so then the mother would, somehow, soon arrive at the discovery that her baby is more at peace if held on the left against her heart, than on the right.1.

2021年职称英语考试阅读理解练习题及答案解析(TheColdPlaces)
2021年职称英语考试阅读理解练习题及答案解析The Cold PlacesThe Arctic is a polar region. It surrounds the North Pole.Like Antarctica, the Arctic is a land of ice and snow. Antarctica holds the record for a low temperature reading ---125 degrees Fahrenheit below zero. Reading of 85 degrees below zero are common in both the Arctic and Antarctica. Winter temperatures average 30 d3egrees below zero in the Arctic. At the South Pole the winter average is about 73 degrees below zero.One thing alone makes it almost impossible for men to live in Antarctica and in parts of the Arctic. This one thing is the low temperature --- the killing chill of far North and the polar South.To survive, men must wear the warmest possible clothing . They must build windproof shelters. They must keep heaters going at al times. Not even for a moment can they be unprotected against the below-zero temperatures.Men have a way of providing for themselves. Polar explorers wrap themselves in warm coats and furs. The cold makes life difficult. But the explorers can stay alive.What about animals? Can they survive? Do we find plants? Do we find life in the Arctic and in Antarctica? Yes, we do. There is life in the oceans. There is life on land.Antarctica, as we have seen, is a cold place indeed. But this has not always been the case. Expedition scientists have discovered that Antarctica has not alwaysbeen a frozen continent. At one time the weather in Antarctica may have much like our own.Explorers have discovered coal in Antarctica. This leads them to believe that Antarctica at one time was a land of swamps and forests. Heat and moisture must have kept the trees in the forests alive.1) The lowest temperature that man has ever known was recorded in Antarctica.A. RightB. WrongC.

2021年职称英语考试卫生类C级阅读理解及答案4The Cherokee NationLong before the white man came to the America, the land belonged to the American Indian nations. The nation of the Cherokees lived in What is now the southeastern part of the United States.After the white man came, the Cherokees copied many of their ways. One Cherokee named Sequoyah saw how important reading and writing was to the white man. He decided to invent a way to write down the spoken Cherokee language. He began by making word pictures. For each word he drew a picture. But that proved impossible-there were just too many words. Then he took the 85 sounds that made up the language. Using this own imagination and an English spelling book, Sequoyah invented a sign for each sound. His alphabet proved amazingly easy to learn. Before long, many Cherokees knew how to read and write in their own language. By 1828, they were even printing their own newspaper.In 1830, the U.S. Congress passed a law. It allowed the government to remove Indians from their lands. The Cherokeesrefused to go. They had lived on their lands for centuries. It belonged to them. Why should they go to a strange land far beyond the Mississippi River?The army was sent to drive the Cherokees out. Soldiers surrounded their villages and marched them at gunpoint into the western territory. The sick, the old and the small children went in carts, along with their belongings. The rest of the people marched on foot or rode on horseback. It was November, yet many of them still wore their summer clothes. Cold and hungry, the Cherokees were quickly exhausted by the hardships of the journey. Many dropped dead and were buried by the roadside. When the last group arrived in their new home in March 1839, more than 4,000 had died. It was indeeda march of death.1. The Cherokee Nation used to live______A) on the American continent.B) In the southeastern part of the US.C) Beyond the Mississippi River.D) In the western territory.2. one of the ways that Sequoyah copied from the white man is the way of______A) writing down the spoken language.B) Making word pictures.C) Teaching his people reading.D) Printing their own newspaper.3. A law was passed in 1830 to ______A) allow the Cherokees to stay where they were.B) Send the army to help the Cherokees.C) Force the Cherokees to move westward.D) Forbid the Cherokees to read their newspaper.4. When the Cherokees began to leave their lands.______A) they went in carts.B) They went on horseback.C) They marched on foot.D) All of the above.5.

2021年职称英语考试卫生类C级阅读理解及答案12
2021年职称英语考试卫生类C级阅读理解及答案12Hearts and kidneys: If one’s diseased, better keep a close eye on1 the other. Surprising new research shows kidney disease somehow speeds up heart disease well before it has ravaged the kidneys. And perhaps not so surprising, doctors have finally proven that heart disease can trigger kidney destruction, too.The work, from two studies involving over 50,000 patients, promises to boost efforts to diagnose simmering kidney disease earlier. All it takes are urine and blood tests that cost less than $ 25, something proponents want to become as routine as cholesterol checks. 2 “The average patient knows their cholesterol,”says Dr. Peter McCullough, preventive medicine chief at Michigan’s William Beaumont Hospital. “The average patient has no idea of3 their kidney function.”Chronic kidney disease, or CKD, is a quiet epidemic: Many of the 19 million Americans estimated to have it don’t know they do. The kidneys lose their ability to filter waste out of the bloodstream so slowly that symptoms aren't obvious until the organs are very damaged. End-stage kidney failureis rising fast, with 400,000 people requiring dialysis or a transplant to survive, a toll that has doubled in each of the last two decades, sAnd while CKD patients often are terrified of having to go on dialysis, the hard truth is that most will die of heart disease before their kidneys disintegrate to that point, something kidney specialists have recognized for several years but isn't widely known, s Indeed, the newresearch is highlighted in this month's Archives of Internal Medicine with a call for doctors who care for heart patients to start rigorously checking out the kidneys, and for better care of early kidney disease. 7The link sounds logical. After alla , high blood pressure and diabetes are chief risk factors for both chronic kidney disease and heart attacks. But the link goes beyond" those risk factors, stresses McCullough: Once the kidneys begin to fail, something in turn10 accelerates heart disease, not just in the obviously sick or very old, but at what he calls “a shockingly early age.”McCullough and colleagues tracked more than 37,000 relatively young people—average age 53 —who volunteered for a kidney screening. Three markers of kidney function were checked: The rate at which kidneysfilter blood, called the GFR or glomerular filtration rate11; levels of the protein albumin in the urinei and if they were anemic. They also were asked about previously diagnosed heart disease.The odds of having heart disease rose steadily as each of the kidney markers worsened. More striking was the death data. At this age, few deaths are expected, and indeed just 191 people died during the study period. But those who had both CKD and known heart disease had a threefold increased risk of death in a mere 2 1/2 years, mostly from heart problems. “This study is very much a wake-up call,”McCullough says.练习:1. How can one learn earlier whether he or she suffer simmering kidney disease?A By cholesterol checks.B By urine and blood tests.C By keeping a close eye on one's kidneys.D By measuring the volume of urine output.2. How many Americans suffer chronic kidney disease according to an estimation?A 1,9,000,000.B 400,000.C 50,000.D 37,000.3. How many Americans suffered end-stage kidney failure and required dialysis or a transplant to survive twenty years ago according to an estimation?A 400,000.B 300,000.C 200,000.D 100,000.4. What did the Archives of Internal Medicine call for doctors caring for heart patients to do?A To examine their patients' heart function carefully.B To have their patients' chests X-ra Yed regularly.C To select volunteers from their patients for a kidney screening.D To start rigorously checking out their patients' kidneys.5. Which of the following is NOT one of the three markers of kidney function?A Levels of the protein albumin in the urine.B Levels of the white blood cells in the blood.C The rate at which kidneys filter blood.D Whether one is anemic or not答案与题解:1.B 第二段第一、二句说到,加速慢性肾病的诊断所使用的方法就是尿检和血检,故B项为正确答案。

Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens - not criminals. Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path to citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally. Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measures - includingrounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries.Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise. Some want to keep the doors open. They need the labor. About 400,000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2021,according to the Canadian Government statistics. However, all this growth means that cities need to adapt. Newcomers dont always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled. So industries are using mentoring programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs.With the large numbers of undocumented African immigrants arriving in the Canary Islands and showing no sign of abating, the Spanish Government has decided to get tough. There will be no more mass amnesties for illegals,and anyone coming to Spain without permission will be sent back,the government has announced. About 23,000 migrants landed on the islands in 2021,and riots have erupted in some crowded reception centers. This has promoted local authorities to appeal to the United Nations for help.Frances new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encourage high-skilled migration. It takes effect in 2021. The new law authorizes the government to identify particular professions where France has a talent shortage. Then the government will help these identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or qualifications. The selected foreign employees will be granted "skills and talents' visas, valid for three years. But some concern that itll cause brain drain in developing countries.31 Many immigrants swarmed into streets in the US in early 2021, demanding that they should be treated asA animalsB citizensC civiliansD criminals第二篇 Mind-reading MachineA team of researchers in California has developed a way to predict what kinds of objects people are looking at by scanning whats happening in their brains.When you look at something, your eyes send a signal about that object to your brain. Different regions of the brain process the information your eyes send. Cells in your brain called neurons are responsible for this processing.The fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) brain scans could generally match electrical activity in the brain to the basic shape of a picture that someone was looking at.Like cells anywhere else in your body, active neurons use oxygen. Blood brings oxygen to the neurons,and the more active a neuron is, the more oxygen it will consume. The more active a region of the brain,the more active its neurons, and in turn, the more blood will travel to that region. And by using fMRI,scientists can visualize which parts of the brain receive more oxygen-rich bloodand therefore, which parts are working to process information.An fMRI machine is a device that scans the brain and measures changes in blood flow to the brain. The technology shows researchers how brain activity changes when a person thinks, looks at something, orcarries out an activity like speaking or reading. By highlighting the areas of the brain at work when a person looks at different images,fMRI may help scientists determine specific patterns of brain activity associated with different kinds of images.The California researchers tested brain activity by having two volunteers view hundreds of pictures of everyday objects, like people, animals, and fruits. The scientists used an fMRI machine to record the volunteers brain activity with each photograph they looked at. Different objects caused different regions of the volunteers brains to light up on the scan,indicating activity. The scientists used this information to build a model to predict how the brain might respond to any image the eyes see.In a second test,the scientists asked the volunteers to look at 120 new pictures. Like before,their brains were scanned every time they looked at a new image. This time, the scientists used their model to match the fMRI scans to the image. For example, if a scan in the second test showed the same pattern of brain activity that was strongly related to picturesof apples in the first test, their model would have predicted the volunteers were looking at apples.36 What is responsible for processing the information sent by your eyes?A A small region of the brain.B The central part of the brain.C Neurons in the brain.D Oxygen-rich blood.【2021年职称英语考试:理工类B级阅读题(3)】。
职称英语B2021年职称英语考试理工类B级阅读试题及答案2
职称英语B2021年职称英语考试理工类B级阅读试题及答案2El NinoWhile some forecasting methods had limited success predicting the 1997 El Nino a few months in advance1, the Columbia University researchers say their method can predict large El Nino events up to two years in advance.That would be good news for governments, farmers and others seeking to plan for the droughts and heavy rainfall that El Nino can produce in various parts of the world. Using a puter, the researchers matched sea-surface temperatures to later El Nino occurrences between 1980 and 20________0 and were then able to anticipate El Nino events dating back to 1857, using prior sea-surface temperatures.The results were reported in the latest issue of the journal Nature.The researchers say their method is not perfect, but Bryan C.Weare, a meteorologist at the University of California.Davis, who was not involved in the work, said it “suggests2 El Nino is indeed predictable.”“This will probably convince others to search around more for even better methods,” said W eare.He added that the new method “makes it possible topredict El Nino at long lead times3.” Other models also use sea-surface temperatures, but they have not looked as far back because they need other data, which is only available for recent decades, Weare said.The ability to predict the warming and cooling of the Pacific is of immense importance4.The 1997 El Nino,for e____le, caused an estimated $20 billion in damage worldwide, offset by beneficial effects in other areas, said David Anderson, of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts in Reading, England.The 1877 El Nino, meanwhile, coincided with a failure of the Indian monsoon and a famine that killed perhaps 40 million in India and China, prompting the developmentof seasonal forecasting, Anderson said. When ElNino hit in 1991 and 1997, 20________million people were affected by flooding in China alone, according to a 20__ United Nations report.While predicting smaller El Nino events remains tricky, the ability to predict larger ones should be increased to at least a year if the new method is confirmed.El Nino tends to develop between April and June and reaches its peak between December and February.The warming tends to last between 9 and 12 months and occurs every two to seven years. The newforecasting method does not predict any major El Nino events in the ne____t two years, although a weak warming toward the end of this year is possible. 词汇: EI Nino n.厄尔尼诺现象 offset / 5C:fset / v.抵消equatorial / 7ekwE5tC:riEl / adj.赤道的 lead / li:d / adj.领先的 occurrence / E5kQrEns / n.发生 monsoon / mCn5su:n / n.季风 meteorologist / 7mi:tjE5rClEdVist / n.气象学家 tricky / 5triki / adj.难以捉摸的注释:1.… methods had limited success predicting the 1997 EI Nino a few months in advance:predicting the1997EI Nino a few months in advance是现在分词短语,进一步说明 limited success的含义。

The road crew were playing a game with dollar notes. Folding them into small planes to see whose would fly the furthest.I having nothing better to do,I joined in andwon five,and then took the opportunity to escape with my profit. Despite the evil-looking clouds,I had to get out for a while.I headed for a shop on the other side of the street. Unlike the others,it didn't have a sign shouting its name and business,and instead of the usual impersonal modern lighting,there was an appealing glow inside. Strangely nothing was displayed in the window. Not put off by this,I went inside.It took my breath away. I didn't know where to look, where to start. Onone wall there hung three hand-stitched American quilts that were in such wonderful condition they might have been newly-made. I came across tin toysand antique furniture, and on the wall in front of me, a 1957 Stratocaster guitar , also in excellent condition. A card pushed between the strings said $50. I ran my hand along a long shelf of records, reading their titles. And there was more...�DCan I help you?‖ She startled me. I hadn't even seen the woman behind the counter come in. The way she looked at me, so directly and with such power.It was a look of such intensity that for a moment I felt as if I were wrapped in some kind of magnetic or electrical field. I found it hard to take and almost turned away. But though it was uncomfortable. I was fascinated by the experience of her looking straight into me, and by the feeling that I was neither a stranger, nor strange, to her.Besides amusement her expression showed sympathy. It was impossible totell her age;she reminded me faintly of my grandmother because, although her eyes were friendly, I could see that she was not a woman to fall out with. I spoke at last. 'I was just looking really,' I said, though secretly wondering how much of the stuff I could cram into the bus.The woman turned away and went at once towards a back room, indicatingthat I should follow her. But it in no way lived up to the first room. The light made me feel peculiar, too. It came from an oil lamp that was hung from the centre of the ceiling and created huge shadows over everything. There were no rare electric guitars, no old necklaces, no hand-painted boxes withdelicate flowers. It was also obvious that it must have taken years, decades, to collect so much rubbish, so many old documents arid papers.I noticed some old books, whose gold lettering had faded, making their titles impossible to read. 'They look interesting,' I said, with some hesitation. 'To be able to understand that kind of writing you must first have had a similar experience,' she said clearly. She noted the confused look on my face, but didn't add anything.She reached up for a small book which she handed to me. 'This is the best book I can give you at the moment,' she laughed. �DIf you use it.‖ I opened the book to find it full. or rather empty, with blank white pages, but paid her the few dollars she asked for it, becoming embarrassed when I realised the notes were still folded into little paper planes.
