At the doctor’s office
Wilson is a foreign student in Britain. He is learning English there. He still has some trouble using the language.
Doctor: Good morning. You’re a new patient, I think. What’s the trouble?
Wilson: Sometimes I feel cold and sometimes hot. I have a headache and a stomachache. Doctor: Yes, you look a bit off-colour.
Wilson: What colour, please?
Doctor: Sorry, what I said was “off-colour”. We use it to describe how people look or feel when they are unwell. Let me take your temperature. When did this start?
Wilson: I felt very tired last night when I went to bed. Then I felt really bad this morning when I
woke up.
Doctor: I see. Now, let’s look at your temperature. Ah, just as I thought, a hundred and one. Wilson: Oh, a hundred and one? So high?
Doctor: Ah, yes, that must sound strange to you. We measure people’s temperature on the Fahrenheit scale(华氏). In centigrade, your temperature is 39℃, which is a bit high, but not exactly boiling point(沸点).
Wilson: Oh, it isn’t very bad, then.
Doctor: No, it isn’t serious. You’ve got a cold. I’ll give you some medicine. You’d better stay at home in the warm for a day or two and drink plenty of water.
Wilson: Thank you very much, doctor. I’m feeling better already. It wasn’t so difficult telling you about my illness.
Doctor: No, language doesn’t matter too much to a doctor. After all, vets manage without language at all.
Wilson: Please, what a “vets”?
Doctor: Animal doctors. Now I must end this English lesson and see my next patient.
34．Which word has the same meaning as the underlined word “off-colour”?

“I want a mobile phone!” said Lisa. “I’m sure you do,” said her dad.
“No, Dad. You don’t understand. I really, really, really want a mobile phone.” “And I really, really, really want a boat. It’s not going to happen.”
Lisa and her dad were stuck in traffic. It seemed that it’s always the case. When he took her to school in the morning — traffic. When he picked her up in the afternoon — traffic. Go to the supermarket, a birthday party, and what felt like ten hours of traffic was what they got.
Lisa was bored. When she was bored, she wanted things. Right now, she wanted a mobile phone. She wasn’t sure if her dad understood that. She would have to tell him again.
“I WANT A MOBILE PHONE.” “NO.”
“What if I got stuck in a cave?”
“What?” asked her dad, trying not to laugh.
“What if I had a dog and the dog ran away, and I had to run after it. What if the dog ran into a cave, and I ran after the dog. In the cave there was a bear, and the bear trapped me, and …”
“And then you were stuck in the cave.”
“Yes. It’s a mother bear. She will eat me unless I have a mobile phone to call for help.”
“If it’s a mother bear, you can use her phone. Everyone knows mums always carry phones.” Dad was laughing as he said this. Lisa didn’t think it was very funny. Now she was angry. “If I had a mobile phone, I could play games on it!”
“If I had a boat, I could eat beef on it. That doesn’t mean I’m getting one.”
“No, but I mean if I could play games, I wouldn’t be so bored when we were in traffic. I
wouldn’t trouble you!”
“I don’t mind being troubled. I like talking to you.” “Then I won’t say anything at all!”
Dad smiled quietly to himself. “I’m going to call Mum to let her know we’ll be late.” He reached into his pocket. “Oh! My battery’s dead.”
“You know…if I had a mobile phone, I could call Mum,” said Lisa. “Nice try.”
Lisa smiled. She wasn’t getting a phone, but she knew she was right, and that was almost as good.

Elsie Eiler is the head of Monowi, a tiny town in northern Nebraska, U.S.A., and that isn’t her only job. She is also the town secretary, the town treasurer, the librarian, and she works in the café. Why has she got a lot of different jobs? Because there’s nobody else to do them.
Monowi has got a population of one — Elsie.
Monowi is an unusual sight. There are about twelve old wooden houses there. They are all empty and are surrounded by a few trees, several old cars and lots of rubbish. The town is silent. An old yellow school bus, with no wheels or seats, stands next to the small school. The school closed 40 years ago. Opposite Elsie’s café is an old building, filled with rubbish. It was a shop but it closed in the 1950s.
The busiest time for Monowi was in the 1930s. Then, the population was 150, and was
made up of mostly farmers and their families. There was a railway too. However, the farmers

couldn’t compet(e
竞争)with the large industrialized(工业化的)farms, and left the town to look

for other work. In 1971, the railway closed and the town began to die. Three years ago, the last people that lived there, except Elsie’s family, moved away. Then, Elsie’s husband died, and then her son and daughter left to find work in bigger towns, leaving Elsie the only person in the town.
45 Her food is good, her beer is cold, and farmers and truck drivers travel a long way to eat at her café. “One day Monowi will just be memories, and it will probably turn to dust,” she says. “But I like it, and as long as I can take care of myself, I will stay here.”
42．What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us about Elsie Eiler?
A. She is the only person living in Monowi. B. She has a good time living in Monowi. C. She can do different kinds of jobs. D. She will leave Monowi soon.
43．Mostly and their families lived in Monowi in the 1930s.
A. railway workers B. shopkeepers
C. truck drivers D. farmers
44．The article tells us about Monowi EXCEPT .
A. what it looks like B. whether there is train there
C. when people first lived there D. why people started to leave it
45．Which of the following can be filled in the blank in the last paragraph?
A. Elsie believes Monowi will have a bright future. B. Now Elsie wishes her kids to return to Monowi. C. Elsie will leave Monowi in a couple of years.
D. Now Elsie lives alone but she isn’t lonely.
