Future and Today

It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.

There is an old English saying:“Gain time, gain life”Then what’s time? Time is something that we can’t see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeably. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious(珍貴的) than money, because when money is spent, we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless.

We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.

As we all know,“Time and tide wait for no man.”If you waste today, you will regret tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember:“No pains, no gains.”Today’s hard work is the cause of tomorrow’s harvest.

科目：初中英語 來源：2010年山東省東營市畢業(yè)升學(xué)考試英語卷 題型：閱讀理解

One day, I went to see my last patient(病人), an old woman. In the doorway, I saw she was struggling (掙扎) to put socks on her swollen (浮腫)feet in the bed. I stepped in, spoke quickly to the nurse, read her chart noting. I was almost in the clear that she was not in serious condition.

I asked, “Could I help put on your socks? How are you feeling? Your sugars and blood pressure were high but they're better today. The nurse mentioned you're anxious to see your son. He's visiting you today. It's nice to have a family visit. I think you really look forward to seeing him."

"Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not yours." She said with a serious voice.

I was surprised as I helped her with the socks. She told me that her only son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that was the main cause of her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen.

Each story is different. Some are detailed; others are simple. Some have a beginning, middle and end; others don’t have clear ends. Some are true; others not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard — without interruption(打斷) or judgment(評價).

It was that woman who taught me the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. And, not long after, in an unexpected accident, I became a patient. 20 years later, I sit all the time — in a wheelchair.

For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair. I believe in the power of listening.

1. How was the old woman?

A. Her feet were swollen.                 B. Her sugars were high. 

C. She was not badly ill.                 D. Her blood pressure was better.

2.How did the doctor know that the old woman’s son was visiting her? 

A. The nurse told him.          B. The old woman told him.

C. The woman’s son told him.    D. The doctor got it from her chart noting.

3.What did the old woman think caused her health problems?

   A. Her son’s not seeing her.       B. No one listening to her story.

   C. The medical care of the hospital.  D. The distance between her and her son.

4.When the patient told the doctor her stories, what she needed might be ______.

   A. keeping smiling                                        B. interruption or judgment

C. listening without interruption           D. communicating with each other

5.Which statement is NOT right according to the passage?

A. Her son lived close to her house.

B. The old woman didn’t need the doctor’s treatments.

C. Listening is powerful medicine.

D. The doctor has to “walk” with the help of a wheel chair.
