     Perhaps I am Courageous, but that's because I've had some inspiring teachers. I'll tell you about one of them. Many years ago, when I worked     a volunteer at Stanford Hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liza    was suffering from a rare and serious disease, Her only chance of       (recover) appeared to be a blood transfusion (輸血) from      five-year-old brother, who       (survive) the same disease and developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the boy     he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for a moment      taking a deep breath and saying, "Yes, I'll do it if it will save Liza."

     As the transfusion progressed, he lay in a bed next to his sister,   (smile). But then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked at the doctor and asked with    trembling voice, "Will I start to die fight away?"

     Being young, the boy had misunderstood the doctor. He thought he was going to have to give her    his blood.

It was time for Mr. Rocco to shut up shop when I hurried into the florist’s. “Now, what is it you want?” Mr. Rocco turned to me. “I want the most beautiful flower you have.” I replied. “And just how much do you have to pay for this most beautiful flower?” I held out a wet hand showing a quarter and dime. He nodded, and then showed me a plant on the counter. “I can give you this one for 35 cents.” he said. “Aw, gee,” I protested, “it looks like a weed!” About 18 inches high, the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper. “Now trust me, boy—I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up, you will find your most beautiful flower.” said Mr. Rocco. I knew him to be a good honest man, so I agreed to take it.

It was almost midnight when I arrived home. Mom was seriously sick and using the front bedroom. I looked in to see if she was asleep, and then quietly tiptoed in and set the plant on the table beside her bed. I wanted her to be surprised when she woke on Mother’s Day.

The next morning, I dressed and hurried downstairs. The sun was shining through kitchen window as I looked into Mom’s room. She motioned for me to come in, then glanced over at the table where the plant was. Holy mackerel! There were three big yellow trumpet-shaped（喇叭狀的）blooms. It was just like Mr. Rocco said—the most beautiful flower I ever saw! When I looked at Mom, she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks. She held out her hand for me to come near, then pulled me close and hugged till it hurt. Then, remembering her contagious condition and that she wasn’t supposed to touch me, she quickly let me go.

My dear mom died the next night. The moment she hugged me turned out to be the most wonderful moment of my life. Not only had that beautiful plant helped show just how much I loved her, but I’d always know how much she loved me.

Scientists say they have discovered a promising treatment for sleeping sickness, a killer disease that infects(感染) about 60,000 people in Africa a year.
British and Canadian experts say drugs could attack the parasite（寄生蟲） causing the illness needs to survive. They say the drug could be ready for human medical test in about 18 months.
The disease, spread by the bite of a fly, is caused by a parasite attacking the central nervous system. It has similar symptoms（癥狀） to malaria（瘧疾）, making it difficult to diagnose. Left untreated, it moves to the brain, resulting in mental confusion and final death
The "breakthrough" came at the University of Dundee in Scotland, where scientists were offered money to research diseases ignored by major drugs companies.
Professor Paul Wyatt, director of the programme, said: "This is one of the most significant findings made in recent years in terms of drug discovery and development for ignored diseases."
He said the research, published in the journal Nature, represented "significant progress" in the development of a full blown drug against the disease.
The World Health Organization said there are between 50,000 and 70,000 cases of the disease a year, with a further 60 million people at risk of infection.
The research in Dundee was backed by partners at the University of York in England and the Structural Genomics Consortium in Toronto, Canada. The two drugs currently available to treat sleeping sickness both have problems. One is with side effects that kill one in 20 patients and the other is costly, only partially effective and requires long-time hospital treatment, the scientists said.
【小題1】The word backedin the last paragraph probably means_____.

A．conductedB．supportedC．believedD．managed
【小題2】What the World Health Organization said suggested that______.
A．a(chǎn)bout 60000 people died of the disease each year
B．a(chǎn)bout 60000 people were cured of the disease each year
C．600 million people are likely to get infected
D．the disease is spreading fast in Africa
【小題3】We can read this passage______.
A．in the journal Nature
B．in a newspaper of the University of Dundee
C．in a book about flies
D．in a newspaper about medicine
【小題4】We can learn from the passage that______ .
A．big drug companies play an important role in the research of the new drug
B．people who get infected with the disease are mentally disturbed
C．a(chǎn)mong 200 people infected with the disease, 5 may die because of the old drug
D． Professor Paul Wyatt may be a professor at the University of York
