We’ll all move someday from this world to the next, but we won’t need a truck to do it. We’ll take nothing with us and but 64 a memory of the life

纸上将该项涂黑。

A

10 years after my parents got married, my dad went to work in the oil fields, and soon accepted a job working overseas. The money was great, but the fact that we only saw him every other month disappointed me. My mom stayed home with her five children, raising us alone. We had a place in the country with horses, dogs, chickens and a few head of cattle. Mom was very busy, but always made time for us. Of course, lots of mothers did things like that. But Mom’s greatest achievement was yet to come.

When the oil business declined(衰退) in the 1980s, my dad and most of his friends lost their jobs. The

wives were at a loss to know how to manage without large monthly paychecks. But my mom was different. She helped out by working part-time jobs and she learned to drive a semi-truck, so she could help my dad make more miles at his new job. But with three teenagers at home, she couldn't spend time on the road with him. so he decided to find a different kind of job.

Mom found an ad for the International Air Academy in Vancouver, Washington. She had always dreamed of working as a flight attendant but had chosen a family over a career. She was fascinated by the idea that she might be able to work in the travel field after all. Having no idea how she would pay for the schooling, or even if she’d get a job, she took a leap of faith(冒

险一试) and dialed the number.

It wasn’t easy, but she passed the entrance exam and was admitted to the three-month training course. That was only half the battle, though, as she still needed the tuition. She finally got a loan(借款) to cover some of the expenses, and the president of the school gave her a personal loan to cover the rest.

As she read her welcome packet, she realized there was a strict dress code( 着装要求), requiring professional dress each day. This was not something she had. And she also needed to see an eye doctor. Her

older brother sent her enough money to buy the clothes she needed and test her eyes. And then she took her two youngest －daughters my sister and me to Vancouver, where there was an apartment waiting for

her in the family

housing section.

In the first day of class, she was so nervous. I can remember her taking deep breaths and trying to calm herself before leaving. She was forty-five years old, and that made it a little intimidating to walk into a classroom full of twenty-year-olds and try to hold her own. But she stood by her commitment and graduated at the top of her class.

Her first job as a travel agent was with a large agency in Aurora, Colorado. She felt great about her achievement and proud of the beautiful high-rise building she worked in. I was so proud of what she had

done. She’d found a way to rise above the curveball(弧线球) life had thrown at her. Instead of quitting as

many of her friends had, she charged ahead and created

a brand new career.

66. Why did the author’s mother decide not to drive the

semi-truck any more?

A. Because the payment was not high enough.

B. Because she was too tired to help the

author's father. C. Because she needed

to look after the children.

D. Because she wanted to work full-time is a flight attendant.

67. What can we learn from the

last paragraph?

A. The author’s mother was good at playing baseball.

B. The author’s mother got her dream job through hard-work.

C. The author’s mother was no longer concerned about the future of the family.

D. The author’s mother managed to overcome the difficulties in life.

B

Teenagers enter their adolescent years with a mixture of optimism, excitement and anxiety. Adolescence is a time when boys and girls begin to show greater independence from their parents. It is also a time when young people begin to develop the sense of individuality that will help shape their future identity as adults. In fact, showing independence and forming a unique identity are two of the most important developmental tasks that adolescents must finish in preparation for satisfying and productive adult lives.

It is not easy for parents or teenagers to go smoothly through this period.

Adolescents want to be

independent of their parents and make their own decisions. They often do not recognize their need for adu lts’ guidance and support.

However, some parents find it easy to keep the lines of communication open with an adolescent child.

These parents are often noticed by the child as stable sources of positive influence, and the teen feels supported in his or her growing independence. Communication in such families characterized by mutual(互相的) respect and the ability to freely exchange feelings and ideas. Parents who understand their teenager’s

need for a reasonable measure of independence and individuality encourage their child's growth and achievements. This positive interest strengthens parent-child relationships. When adolescents receive parental approval and believe that parents really value their accomplishments, it creates a willingness to share other information about themselves.

Many parents find it difficult to have open communication with their child during

the adolescent years. Some parents have difficulty understanding the changes their teenager is experiencing and pay little attention to his or her need to pull away from the family and make independent decisions. At the same time, some teenagers are so self-focused that they do not appreciate or accept their parent s’ concern, and they are against all parental authority. In this case, frequent arguments may develop, and family life may become difficult. Parents and teenagers may separate from one another to avoid arguments, but this is usually a short-term solution that does not clear up the main problems.

A major long-term method is to help them develop more effective communication. This enables the family members to end their conflicts( 矛盾) and to establish more harmonious and more satisfying

The phone ID flashed “Emergency Vet”. “O h n o” I whispered. I could not lose Merlin now.

Ron and I had tried to have children for a long time with depressing results.

I threw myself into my work. Any maternal feelings I had were spent on Merlin.

I coul dn’t wait to get home from work each night. I wanted to pick up that warm bundle of loving fur and nestle him. I wanted to sing “Rock-a-bye Merlin”as I did every night as he would put his paws around my neck.

Merlin was my comfort especially at times when I wondered if God was listening.

But last night something had changed. Not only did I sing “Rock-a-Bye Merlin”but I asked “What will I do after you’re gone?”

Although Merlin was 19 years old a senior in the age of a cat he di dn’t look or act that way. I di dn’t want to accept the fact that he was nearing the end of his lifetime. My job at the law firm was so demanding and stressful that I coul dn’t imagine getting through the day without Merlin waiting to greet me at home.

I dialed the vet’s number. I asked for my husband but he already left. Then I took a breath and asked the question that no one wants to ask “Is my Merlin still alive?” The nurse said “y es.”

Ron came home and said that Merlin had almost no red blood cells left. White blood cells were replacing them. Merlin would need expensive transfusions most likely on a monthly basis. We both knew Merlin was running out of time. I asked Ron to drive me to the vet so I could say goodbye to my little boy cat but he was beat tired and it was late. Ron said if Merlin was still alive the next morning then he would take me to the vet.

The next morning I called the vet. Merlin had survived the night.

After driving to the vet I went into the examining room. The nurse brought Merlin and placed him on an examining table on his side. His eyes were tightly shut.

I thought he died already. I carefully edged my hand to reach his body. His body felt warm but when I spoke his name there was no response. No response to his name or that I was there and that I loved him. I was extremely sad.

In that examining room I felt helpless. I wondered how many people in an examining room felt as helpless as I did.

Feeling driven to prayer I yelled “God this is n’t good enough. I need to see my Merlin the way I

remember him I need a miracle and I need it now!”

At that moment God granted a miracle. Merlin’s favorite

compliment entered my mind. I said

“Merlin You are Beautiful and You are Gorgeous

do you hear me?” One eye opened.

I said “Gotcha”. I kept repeating those words.

Merlin opened the other eye and one limb at a time got up. He was waiting for that phrase. He wanted to hear that he was beautiful and gorgeous again.

Then I experienced another miracle.

There was no sound in that examining room until Merlin started walking to me. From out of nowhere or maybe from heaven I clearly heard a song we sung in church often: “It Is Well With My Soul.” I remembered thinking “Y es it is well with my Soul. I got to see my little boy cat one more time.”

Merlin walked to me. He put his face in mine which he had never done before. He rubbed a circle around my face twice. Merlin said goodbye with his face and marked me for life.

Ron appeared shocked that Merlin was up and had walked to me. I said to Merlin “Tell God you are a good boy and how much we love you” and then handed him back to the nurse.

Tears of gratitude poured forth in memory of a miracle. You see for nineteen years God spoke to me through a special cat named “Merlin.” On Merli n’s last day God proved he heard me when he granted a miracle. That miracle gave me time to say goodbye.

We all need to feel understood, recognized and affirmed by our friends, family and romantic partners. We all need to find our tribe.

Research has shown that among the benefits that come with being in a relationship or group, feeling accepted is regarded as the most important driver of meaning. When other people think you matter and treat you as if you matter, you believe you matter, too.

Though we all share a need to belong, in the first decades of the 20th century, many influential

psychologists and physicians did not acknowledge this fundamental aspect of human nature. The idea that children needed parental love and care to live a full and meaningful life was not only considered medically dangerous, but also dismissed as immoral and disgusting.

As behavioral psychology came into fashion and academic psychologists turned their attention to child- raising, this view shifted and they began to examine and affirm the vital importance of attachment in early life. They discovered that people, whatever their age, needed more than food and shelter to live full and healthy lives.

But, sadly, many of us lack close ties. At a time when we are more connected digitally than ever before,

rates of social isolation are rising. The results of an Age UK poll published recently suggest that half a million people over the age of 60 usually spend each day alone, and it's not unusual for another half a million people to go without someone to speak to for five or six days. All these figures reveal more than a rise in loneliness — they reveal a lack of meaning in people's lives. In surveys, we list our close relationships as our most important sources of meaning. Research shows that people who are lonely and isolated feel their lives are less meaningful.

While close relationships are critical for living a meaningful life, they are not the only important social

bonds we need to cultivate. Psychologists have also discovered the value of small moments of intimacy. “H igh-quality connections”, as one researcher calls them, are positive, short-term interactions between two people when a couple holds hands on a walk or when two strangers have an empathetic( 移情作用的)

conversation on a plane. High-quality connections have the potential to unlock meaning in our interactions with acquaintances, colleagues and strangers. We can't control whether someone will make a high-quality connection with us, but we can all choose to start one. We can say hello to a stranger on the street rather than look away. We can choose to value people rather than devalue them. We can invite
