32、 medial care Afghanistans medical conditions have been greatly improved. 文章大意：在阿富汗，由于无知以及其他方面的忌讳，艾滋病患者要么不知这种疾病的危害，要么而不敢公开本人患病的实情。 1 D 猜测词义题。 由后面的“But his father-knew only too well。It was the same one that killed his wife-”可知选D。阿富汗一个18个月大的小孩坐在他父亲的膝盖上安静的吃东西，特别显然，他并不明白他患上了一种可怕而致命的传染病。 但他的父亲，一个身材魁梧的阿富汗农

33、民，却对此一清二楚。 2 D 细节推断题。 从第一段和第二段的信息可知，这个男人的妻子四个月前死于艾滋病，如今小儿子也身患此病，且没有药物治疗，因此他伤心肠哭了。 3 C 推理推断题。 从第五段这个男人所说的话“I told the family-tell them not to kiss the child”可知他不明白艾滋病的传播途径，从而反响了他对艾滋病不甚理解。 4 B 细节推断题。 有文章最后一段第一句“The father can do little for his son but keep his secret。”关于他的小儿子，他除了保守他感染艾滋病的机密外，几乎束手无策。可知

He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by b

35、it .he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other peoples. In the same way, children learn to do all the other things: they should learn to do without being taught, such as to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicyclecompare their own performances with those of more skilled people,

36、and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chanceto find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to .Let him wor

37、k out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not. If it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own pape

38、rs. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine（常规）work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he cant find the way to get the right answer .Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn ,how to measure their own understanding, how to know what theykn

39、ow or do not know. 1 .According to the passage ,the best way for children to learn things is by_ A .listening to skilled peoples advice B .asking older people many questions.

Self

43、-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses(冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral(道德) freedom. A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to cont

44、rol himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy they first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argum

45、ent.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness(狂怒) makes error a fault.” To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “brings with folly and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings

46、 he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him. Self-control is mans last and greatest victory. If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his
