　　My dad was in the hospital battling a serious disease when he was rushed to the operating room.After a hurried talk with Dad's doctors，Mother told my sister and me the worst.

　　Throughout my childhood，my father had survived many serious medical problems，including a heart attack and cancer.He'd seen the four walls of the hospital room more times than anyone should have to.“Lord，” I prayed，“please save him.We can't live without him.” Dad pulled through.As soon as he felt better，he told us something amazing about that day in the operating room.

　　“I was scared.I knew I was dying，”he said.“I moved my head to one side and watched the nurses preparing for the operation.Beyond them I saw a large window which was open.Out of it was a lighted cross.My eyes were fixed upon it.My fears died out.I had the strength to beat the disease and I believed my operation would be successful.The operation started，and then I didn't know anything.”

　　Dad recovered fully and several months later he went to call on a friend at the same hospital.There he looked around for the cross he'd seen.He couldn't find it.He ran into one of the nurses who had taken care of him.“Can I take a quick look at the operating room where I had my operation?” he asked.The room was free so she took him in.My father was very surprised.There were no windows in the room，and the four walls were solid through and through.Why did he see the cross? It was really amazing，but I think he must have had hallucinations (幻覺)at that time.

　　This is the story of my dog called Shandy.He was my favorite pet and he was very lively.His main passion in life was to be taken for a long walk，ending with a big run out in his favorite park.

　　I would try to take him on this walk every day，weather permitting.The park itself was about three miles away from our house.To reach the park we had to cross a number of busy roads，and he would never pull or misbehave.He knew where we were heading and seemingly did not want to risk being taken home before he reached his dream destination.

　　But because of my work I had to rent a flat near the coast in Devon.It was nearly a hundred miles away from my home.This obviously meant I was no longer in the position to take Shandy on his walk.I spoke to my parents，who comforted me that they would continue to take him on the walks.

　　Two weeks after I had left，I had a phone call from my mother.She was panicking(驚慌)，saying that Shandy had managed to escape from the back garden and that she could not find him.She insisted that she had been looking for hours but that there had been no sign of him.I was quite worried and thought about where he might have gone，“Have you been taking him on his walks to the park every day?”I asked.She replied，“Most days.”I asked her to try at the park.“He would not be there;it's miles away，”she said.I again asked her to try there because running in the park was his habit.Luckily he was there quite happily sniffing(聞) around，unaware of the panic(恐慌) he had caused.

　　A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first，holidays honored some holy events or persons.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.

　　Every nation has its special holidays.China observes_New Year's Day (January 1)，May Day and National Day as legal (法定的) holidays，as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People's Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States，congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year's Day (January 1)，Martin Luther King，Jr.'s Birthday，Washington's Birthday，Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country，such as Greece's Independence Day，Italy's Liberation Day and India's Independence Day.

　　Everything we know about the world comes to us through our senses.Traditionally，we were thought to have just five of them-sight，hearing，touch，smell，and taste.

　　Although we pay little attention to them，each of these senses is precious and almost irreplaceable-as we discover，to our sorrow，if we lose one.People usually fear blindness above all other disabilities.Yet deafness can be an even more severe handicap，especially in early life，when children learn language.This is why Helen Keller's achievements were so extraordinary.

　　As a result of an illness at the age of 19 months，she lost both sight and hearing and sank into a totally dark，silent world.She was rescued from this terrible separation by her teacher，Anne Sullivan，who managed to explain，by tapping signs into the little girl's palm，that things have names，that letters make up words，and that these can be used to express wants or ideas.

　　Helen Keller later grew into a writer and a wellknown advocate for the handicapped.Her remarkable development owed a great deal to her determination，her teacher，and her family.But it also showed that when a sense(or two，in Helen Keller's case)is missing，another sense(in her case，touch) may be trained to make up for the loss，at least in part.

　　Our nervous system reacts only to a selected range of wavelengths，vibrations，or other properties.It is limited by our genes，as well as our previous experience and our present state of attention.

　　What draws our attention，in many cases，is change.Our senses are finely adjusted to change.Stationary or unchanging objects become part of the scenery and are mostly unseen.Usual sounds become background noise，mostly unheard.The feel of a sweater against our skin is soon unnoticed.

　　If something in the environment changes，we need to take notice because it might mean danger—or opportunity.Suppose an insect lands on your leg，instantly the touch receptors on the affected leg fire a message that travels up to your brain.There it crosses into the opposite hemisphere(the right hemisphere of the brain controls the left side of the body，and vice versa)to alert brain cells at a particular spot on a sensory map of the body.

　　48.The author refers to Helen Keller in order to ________.

　　A.prove deafness is a more severe handicap than

　　others

　　B.encourage deaf people to learn from her

　　C.show it is important to learn language in early

　　life

　　D.suggest hearing is precious and irreplaceable

　　49.Which of the following will draw our attention according to the passage?

　　A.A sweater against your skin when you are working.

　　B.Noise of the air conditioner when you are doing your homework.

　　C.A sudden quake of the room.

　　D.A sleeping cat in your sofa.
