In my mind I kept 38 those three kids huddled (蜷缩)around the fireplace and their mother standing there with tears running down her cheeks with so much 39 in her heart that she couldn’t speak.

A
Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doyle's husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.
Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and, without so much as a note or a good-bye, close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them. Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home--the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.
To those left behind, this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and self-confidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.
Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well
planned rather than impulsive. "It's typical of the kind of personality which seems
able to ignore other people's pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty."
41. Eileen Doyle reacted that way after her husband’s leaving, because she _____.
A. failed to hear from him for a long time
B. had no idea what was wrong with their family life
C. blamed herself for something wrong she did
D. wondered why her husband took up all their children
42. According to the passage, those people left their families behind for the following reasons except___________.
A. they couldn’t bear their spouse (配偶)
B. they were afraid of the burden of debts
C. they wanted to forget the past completely
D. they wanted to start a new life somewhere else
43. The man or woman left behind with an unfinished marriage usually_________.
A. admit their responsibility for the situation
B. feels embarrassed and useless
C. will have no legal marriage life for seven years
D. wishes the person who has left were dead
44. Which might be the best title of the passage? ___________
A. Broken Marriage B. New life after Desertion
C. A New Social Problem D. Desertion and its Influence

Thanks to modern technologies, we now have the solutions to most eyesight problems. Doctors can use different treatments—PRK, Lasik (镭射视力矫正术) , Lasek and Intraocular Lenses—to solve all types of eyesight problems while limiting the side effects. People believe eye operations are about as safe and effective as surgery (外科手术) can be. However, for an industry that promises clearness, many hospitals have kept their patients in the dark about the risks and realities. Governments are of no help either as there are no limits to who can buy medical instruments.
Despite a good record of the surgery, thousands of people around the world suffer from an eye operation that goes wrong. The consumer--advocate website posts an astonishing series of unhappy endings—infected corneas(角膜),triple vision (三重视觉) and permanently damaged eyesight. The message boards are full of people who came out of Lasik with far better vision but still in great unhappiness, affected by poor night vision, dry eyes and worse. It's vital to research the subject if you're considering surgery. Here's a guide to help you see things clearly.
