Welcome to the United States，ladies and gentlemen.Now I'd like to tell you what you should do when you become ill.If you feel sick and want to see a doctor，check with the manager of your hotel.They may call a doctor for you.American doctors are busy all the time，and it may be difficult to see the doctor immediately，especially if you are well enough to go to the doctor's office.If you have difficulty explaining what is troubling you in English，your tour guide may be able to help you.
You may also go to the nearest hospital，especially if you require immediate attention.If you are seriously hurt and alone，call 911 and the operator there will get help for you.Don't be frightened if you're sent to the hospital.In the United States，people are often sent to hospitals so that doctors can use the special machines and services for tests and treatment.Unfortunately，the United States does not have a national system of health insurance to help pay medical bills.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Today, the paintings by Vincent van Gogh are world-famous and worth many millions of dollars but while he was alive, Vincent van Gogh sold only one painting. He was a lonely, unhappy man who suffered from mental illness, and he died at the early age of 37.
Vincent van Gogh was born in Holland in 1853. His first connection with paintings came in 1869, when he got a job in the Goupil Gallery. He worked for this art dealer in London and Paris for four years before he became a teacher in England for a short time. He moved back to France in 1877 and soon began to paint.
Gogh was influenced by the famous artists that he met in Paris, where he returned to live in 1886. He did not stay long in the French capital. He was attracted by the vivid (鲜艳的)colours of the countryside and, in 1888, he moved to Aries, a small town in the south of France. There, he painted his most famous paintings, using strong brush strokes (画笔的笔触)and bright colours. Vincent van Gogh mainly painted landscapes, but he also produced portraits of local people, such as the doctor and the postman.
It was around this time that Vincent van Gogh began to show signs of mental illness. In 1889, following an argument with another artist, he cut off his own ear. For a time, he lived in a mental hospital in Saint Remy... In 1890, Vincent van Gogh moved to a town called Auvers. For two months, he painted feverishly (狂热地)．Then, one day, he went into the fields with a revolver (左轮手枪)and shot himself. He died from his wounds the next day.

A．he met some famous artists there
B．he began to make money there

答案 D [细节理解题。根据全文情节可知，a，b，c和d所指的四件事情分别发生在1890年、1886年、1889年和1869年，故选D项。]

A teacher of the old school
My grandfather was a teacher. He was the headmaster of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young (and he was old), he gave me presents and seated me on his knees, and told me stories. But I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him.
At school, when he walked into a classroom full of noisy boys, those boys went red in the faces, and looked down at their shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boys could do, my grandfather picked up the boy's work and threw it across the classroom, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning！” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again. My grandfather never forgot.
He was a very different man at school, from the man I saw day by day in his own home.

B．he was not as gentle as at home

About a year ago, I went to stay at a Detroit hotel. I didn't want to carry too much money with me, so I asked the desk clerk to put a hundred-dollar bill in the safe for me.
The next morning, however, the clerk said he knew nothing about my money. I didn't have any proof that I had given the man the money. There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer.
The lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another hundred-dollar bill to the clerk. This I did. An hour later, I went back to the desk and asked for my money. Since I had the lawyer as an eyewitness to the second hundred-dollar bill, the clerk could not say he knew nothing about it.
Another hour later, I put the second part of the lawyer's plan into action. This time both the lawyer and I went to the hotel. I asked for the hundred-dollar bill once again, and when the clerk insisted he had already given it to me, I denied(否认)it. The lawyer said to him, “I saw this gentleman give you a hundred dollars. If you don't hand it over immediately, I'll be forced to call the police.”
The clerk realized he had been tricked, so he gave me back the first hundred-dollar bill.
“I don't know how to thank you enough for getting my money back，” I said to the lawyer. And what you suppose he answered?
He said, “Oh, don't thank me. That will be a hundred dollars, please.”

There is an English saying: “__71__ ” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however，doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.__72__
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. __73__If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.__74__
__75__They have found that even if their paticents do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.
A．Laughter can prolong one's life.
B．As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics in which they help to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh.

Dear Mrs. Winthorp，
So my first week at college is over! No lectures this morning so I think I'd email you and let you know what things are going.
I'm glad to say that anything has worked out fine in the dorm. I remembered asking for a room as far away from the lifts as possible and they find me a comfortable one on second floor. There are two girls from my course here and I plan to make friend with them so that we can help each other on the course work. Everyone else seems very nice and warmly here.
Well，I had better to stop now. I'm going to attend mine first lesson this afternoon, for I've got some preparation to make. Keep in touch.
Best，
Carol

Dear_Mr._and_Mrs._Smith，
How_time_flies! My time in the two-week winter camp seemed as if it happened yesterday.
I have already returned to China safe and sound. When I think of the wonderful two weeks I spent in Australia, I just can't help thinking of both of you and want to express my gratitude to you. It was so kind of you to have provided everything to make my stay such a happy and wonderful experience. I have learned quite a lot, not only of English but also of your culture. And I really enjoyed the fun and laughter we shared with each other. It was your hospitality and great help that made my journey fruitful and worthwhile. I will cherish the merry memories for the rest of my life. I hope we can keep in touch.
I wish you all the best!
Yours，
Li Ming
