It was 8:00 a． m．． A group of college students got out of my car to make a video in the park． My job, as the driver, was to stay nearby and waited for them．

Since I could have several hours’ free time, I decided to go somewhere and do some reading． I found a beautiful bench against a wall． I noticed that a man was sitting on one end, but there was plenty of room for at least two more bodies． I walked over and sat beside him to have a rest．

I quickly discovered that the man would probably spent the night on the bench． His clothes were dirty, his hair was untidy, and soon I caught a bad smell of body sweat (汗水)． I looked at him and smiled, and he smiled back．

We both sat there for over an hour peacefully． I was reading． He was watching the video making． He then stood up, walked in front of me and bowed (鞠躬)． In a little shaky but clear voice, he said, “Thank you．”

I lifted my head．

“For what?” I questioned．

He looked at the ground as he said, “Usually people won’t even look at me, but you are willing to sit by me． ________”

I honestly didn’t know what to say as he turned and walked quickly around the corner． I was shocked． I didn’t do anything special． I just shared a bench．

The day finally came． Anne went to the performers’ dressing room． She suddenly felt shy． The other performers were from the city． But she was from the countryside．

A professional woman speaker also read a poem before Anne． The audience (观众) liked it very much． When it was Anne’s turn, she walked slowly onto the stage． But she had an attack of stage fear and she almost forgot everything at that moment． She stood there without speaking． Then, she saw Gilbert in the audience． Anne thought that he was laughing at her．

Actually, Gilbert was smiling because he was enjoying the evening． He thought Anne looked beautiful．

Anne did not want to fail in front of Gilbert． Her nervousness disappeared． She began her poem and she was confident．

When Anne finished, she won lots of applause from the audience． She felt shy as she walked back to her seat． A lady from the city talked to her, “That was wonderful． They’re encoring (要求加演) you!” Anne went back to the stage and read another poem．

After the concert, the lady from the city introduced Anne to everybody． They had dinner in a beautiful dining room． Diana and Jane were invited, too． Anne felt very pleased with the evening．

“What an evening! Anne, your poem was great． I was worried at first． You were better than that professional woman,” said Jane．

“No, I wasn’t better than her． I’m only a schoolgirl, with a little talent． But I’m quite pleased that people liked my show,” said Anne．

“Did you see all the diamonds on those ladies? They were beautiful． Imagine being rich!” said Jane．

“We are rich． We’re sixteen years old． We’re happy and we’ve got imaginations． Look at the sky． It’s not lovelier with money． Do you want to be that tall girl and look sad all your life? You know you don’t, Jane Andrews!” said Anne．

“I don’t know． I think diamonds make you feel quite good,” said Jane．

“Well, I don’t want to be anyone but myself． I am quite happy to be Anne of Green Gables, with my pearl necklace． ”

—Adapted from Anne of Green Gables

Today we can do everything with apps: pay bills, order food and shop for anything． Mobile technology means we can hold the world in our hands． However, when it comes to technology and health care, chances and challenges come together．

Let’s start with the ways to get health care． Telemedicine (远程医疗) can allow a patient to use technology to see the doctor online and get a diagnosis and instructions without leaving home．

There are many online patient websites, which have different kinds of interactions (互动) about our health needs． Setting a date with doctors and reading results have been achieved by technology already．

A whole new age of medical care seems possible to come in the future． But every coin has two sides． What might be on the other side of techno-health care?

First, sharing the details of one’s health requires trust, which takes time to build． This is certainly true in health care, where some of life’s best and worst moments have something to do with doctors． The human touch is also very important for patients and is impossible to be there over the smartphone．

Second, test results can be difficult to understand． When someone without a medical degree sees a result with no explanation on the website, there’s room for all kinds of terrible stories to form in their minds．

So how does medicine get along well with the new technology age? Some talented companies are working on it． There is medical equipment that can be used at home to send necessary signs and heart sounds through telemedicine． It seems possible that some companies will find a way to explain test results．

But what it will not achieve is the touch and the warmth of human interaction． Patients often need someone to listen to and care about their journey story, which will never be realized through a human-less technology． Technology should be a tool, but depending on it totally will probably have unexpected effects．

38．According to the passage, how does technology help health care?

A．It encourages patients to put their needs online．

B．It offers patients another way to get a diagnosis．

C．It allows more interaction between doctors and patients．

D．It provides patients a chance to explain test results．

39．What do you know about techno-health care from the passage?

A．Patient websites require trust from doctors． B．Talented companies can give medical advice．

C．Online results may cause worry for patients．      D．Medical equipment can send signs to patients．

40．The writer probably agrees that ________．

A．technology can deal with some unexpected effects

B．usual health care will be a challenge to telemedicine

C．techno-health care should consider about humans’ basic needs

D．it is difficult for patients to get used to the new technology age

Ⅳ． 信息还原（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）

请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

If you only read novels or magazines, the reading speed may not be so important to you． But if you have to read a lot for study, you will look forward to having the ability of reading more quickly．    41  

Before you open the book, make sure that you are comfortable． You need a seat which supports your back and the book should be at the right distance from your eyes．    42  

Spend a few minutes looking through the book． Look at the table of contents, the preface (前言), the title of each chapter and so on． This will help you to decide whether you really need to read the whole book or only certain parts of it．    43  

If you need to read the whole book, decide how much you can read at a time．    44    A history book which includes stories will be easier to read than one about scientific subjects． In the first one, you may be able to read a chapter．  In the second one, you may only be able to read one page．

   45    Make a note of any page which is of special importance． Write down the information which is important for your purpose as well as anything which leads you to further research． You don’t have to write these things in detail． It is enough to put the page number and one or two words as a reminder．

A．Take notes as much as you can if possible．

B．Always keep a pencil and some paper beside you．

C．This depends on the type of book you are reading．

D．Here are some tips to help improve your reading speed．

E．Close eyes and have a rest from time to time if you get tired．
