阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语问答下列各问题（请注意问题后词数要求）。

A nurse of 78 this weekend celebrates 60 years of walking the wards - and she has no plans to retire.

Jackie Reid was 18 when she started work in 1953 - when the National Health Service(NHS) was just five years old - and is believed to be the oldest nurse in Britain.

The diabetes(糖尿病) specialist had to retire at 65 but returned as a nurse within two weeks and still does up to four seven-and-a-half hour shifts(轮班）each week.

Mrs Reid said: "Nursing is hard if you do it correctly but I love my job. Working for the NHS has been my life. I have no other hobbies because I have worked all my life.

Jackie has worked at a number of different hospitals--including one in Scotland.

Her specialist field has been diabetes for the past 40 years. She relrained after her 12-year-old daughter Michelle developed the disease. She currently works at Southend Hospital, Essex.

Over the last 60years she has treated tens of thousands of patients.

Jackie believes nursing should be protected from government cuts. She said: "Therere lots of things I would say to the government. If you are going to get good care you have to have the resources(资源), you cant do it without enough money. They shouldnt need the cuts that there are in the NHS. Its hard now because theres a shortage of staff."

Jackie has lived alone in Grays, Essex, since her husband did three years ago.

The couple have two daughters Michelle, 50, and Karen, 54.

Jackie added: "My youngest daughter worried about me - she doesnt think I should work as much as I do. I constantly say dont worry about me, Im fine, but she never believes me. I dont like the thought of giving it up and will try to keep going forever."

Which of the following is closest in meaning to "mechanism" in Paragraph 6?

The study was carried out by analyzing _______.

阅读短文，回答下列各题：

Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.

Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩) and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed．Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.

Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said: "Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart."

The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces．Dr Garfinkel said, "The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed．Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we dont see - and guide whether we see fear."

To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪) to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a persons feeling of fear.

"We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear," Dr Garfinkel said.

"We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder."

What is the finding of the study?

It can be inferred from the passage that McCormick _______.

阅读短文，回答下列各题：

Home to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia(怀旧)．Its fun to come home．It looks the same．It smells the same．Youll realize whats changed is you．Home is where we ran remember pain, live, and some other experiences; We parted here; My parents met here; I won three championships here.

If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home．I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-top wooden table．To the right of the living room is my first bedroom．Its empty, but its where my earliest memories are.

There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween-when I didnt want to wear the skirt my mother made for me．I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong．If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents room．It is simple: a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side．Their bed is my safe zone．I can jump on it anytime - waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.

Im lucky because I know my first home still exists．It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property(住宅) on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles．It is proof I lived, I grew and I learned.

Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home．I know its where Ill find my family, my dogs, and my belongings．I purposely leave the window open at night because I know Ill be blamed by Mom．But I dont mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me Im home.

Why does the author call her parents bed her "safe zone"(Paragraph 3)?

Which of the following is true of the detectors?

According to the judge, what McCormick had done _______.

阅读短文，回答下列各题：

LONDON - A British judge on Thursday sentenced a businessman who sold fake(假冒的) bomb detectors(探测器) to 10 years in prison, saying the man hadnt cared about potentially deadly consequences.

It is believed that James McCormick got about $77.8 million from the sales of his detectors - which were based on a kind of golf ball finder - to countries including Iraq, Belgium and Saudi Arabia.

McCormick, 57, was convicted(判罪) of cheats last month and sentenced Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London.

"Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people," Judge Richard Hone told McCormick．"you have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt."

The detectors, sold for up to $42,000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air．But in fact they "lacked any grounding in science" and were of no use.

McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya, the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand.

"I never had any had results from customers," he said.

Why was McCormick sentenced to prison?

How did thetwo boys finally reach the pier?

阅读短文，回答下列各题：

On a sunny day last August, Tim heard someshouting．Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in arowboat were being pulled out to sea.

Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack,rowed out a boat to search for a football．Once theyd rowed beyond the calmwaters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boatinto open water．The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore．But theywere no match foritand the boat was out of control.

Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by thewaves.

"Everythingwent quiet in my head," Tim recalls(回忆)．"I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in astraight line."

Tim took off his clothes and jumped into thewater．Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress． "At one point, I considered turning back," he says．"I wonderedif I was putting my life at risk." After 30 minutes of struggling, he wasclose enough to yell to the boys, "Take down the umbrella!"

Christian mademuch effort to take down the umbrella．Then Tim was able to catch up and climbaboard the boat．He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong forhim.

"Lets aim for the pier(码头)," Jack said．Tim turned theboat toward it．Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began tosink．"Can you guys swim?" he cried．"A little bit," theboys said.

Once the were inthe water, Tim decided it would he safer and faster for him to pull the boystoward the pier．Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated ontheir backs．Tim swan toward land as water washed over the boys faces.

“Are we almostthere?" they asked again and again．"Yes," Tim told them eachtime.
