A boy was born to a couple after they’d been married for eleven years. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eyes.

One morning, when the boy was around two years old, the husband saw a bottle open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and put it in the cupboard. The mother, busy in the kitchen, totally forgot the matter.

The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to it and, interested in its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages (劑量). When the child fell down, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was afraid. How would she face her husband?

When the heartbroken father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and said just four words, “I Love Your Darling”.

  The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There’s no pointing in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he’d taken time to put the bottle away, this wouldn’t have happened. No point in blaming others. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was comfort from the husband. That is what he gave her.

  Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or who’s to blame, whether in a relationship, or in a job and miss the warmth in human relationships we could receive by giving each other support.

  After all, shouldn’t forgiving someone we love be the easiest thing in the world to do? Treasure what you have.

36. Why didn’t the husband put away the medicine bottle?

A. He forgot to do it.                                         B. He had no time to do it.

C. He was too lazy to do it.                                  D. He saw his wife do it.

37. In the opinion of the wife, which of the following is responsible for the child’s death?

  A. Her husband’s carelessness.                              B. The child’s bad behavior.

  C. Her own mistake.                                            D. The producer of the medicine.

38. When the wife heard “I Love You Darling”, she must felt _______.

  A. surprised                  B. angry                          C. afraid                          D. indifferent

39. What can be concluded from the passage?

  A. Take good care of our children.                         B. Never make serious mistakes.

  C. Learn to get along with others.                         D. Learn to forgive others.

Sydney—A shark savaged a schoolboy's leg while he was surfing with his father at a beach in Sydney on February 23.It was the third shark attack along the coast of Australia's largest city in a month.
The 15-year-old boy and his father were in the water off Avalon，on Sydney's northern beaches，around dawn when he was attacked.The city's beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.
“The father heard a scream and turned to see his son thrashing(激烈扭動(dòng))about in the water，”the police said.“Fortunately，the shark swam away and the boy was helped to the shore by his father.”
Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller said，“It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged him out of water.”He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to the shore.“There was a lot of pain，as you can imagine.”The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.
Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”，but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures (骨折)．He was in a stable condition now.
Several beaches were closed after the attack.Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark，while the police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks.But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy.“I don't even know if he saw it，”Miller said.
Many shark species live in the waters off Sydney's beaches，but attacks on humans are still relatively rare.However，there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month，one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor，not far from the famous Opera House，and the other on a surfer at the city's world-famous Bondi beach.
Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise.There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor，which has increased fish stocks.Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment，attracting sharks closer to the shore as they chase fish.Many shark species，including the Great White—the man-eaters made famous in Steven Spielberg's Jaws—are protected in Australian waters.
【小題1】The report mainly tells us ________.

A．shark attacks on humans are on the rise
B．sharks attacked humans three times in one month
C．a(chǎn) boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beach
D．shark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydney's beaches
【小題2】The underlined word “savaged” in the first paragraph probably means “________”．
A．a(chǎn)ttracted　　B．draggedC．bitD．packed
【小題3】What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?
B．Sydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.
C．There are many locals and tourists on its coast all the year round.
D．There are few shark species in the waters off Sydney's beaches.
【小題4】About the injury of the boy we know that ________.
A．he was losing much blood when he was dragged out
B．he was very nervous when he was sent to hospital
C．he may be in danger of losing his leg
D．he was injured in the right leg
【小題5】All the following are the causes of Australia's sharks' increasing EXCEPT that ________.
A．environmental protection has created a cleaner environment
B．a(chǎn) ban on commercial fishing has increased fish numbers
C．many shark species are protected in Australian waters
D．the film Jaws has made the Great White famous
