All over the world, children in hospital are being treated with a new kind of medicine: laughter. Lucy is 23 and works for Theodora Children’s Trust. She is one of many clown doctors who bring a smile to the faces of sick children.

“I’m a Theodora clown doctor. I call myself Dr Looloo. I spend two days a week in children’s hospitals, making funny faces, telling jokes, and doing magic tricks. As I walk into the wards I blow bubbles, shake hands with the kids, and make up nonsense songs for those children well enough to sing. I take special balloons to make ‘balloon animals’ and tell funny stories about them.

I’m naturally a very cheerful person. I’ve always been a clown. In fact my father’s a clown and I started working with him when I was eight years old. I knew it was just the job for me and I became a clown doctor because I think it’s a great way to cheer up sick, frightened children in hospital.

Being a clown in hospital is very tiring both physically and emotionally. We have to learn not to show our feelings, otherwise we’d be useless. Clown doctors are sensitive but this is not a side most people see. To the children we’re happy all the time. I’m still learning to allow myself to feel sad occasionally. There are special kids you get really close to. At the moment I’m working with a very sick little girl from Bosnia who speaks no English, so our only common language is laughter.

At weekends I participate in events to raise money for Theodora Children’s Trust. It’s a charity, so we are paid with the money people give. Being a clown doctor makes the worries of everyday life seem small. All in all, I feel honored to do this job. ”

Lucy works as a clown doctor because      .

A．her father is a clown               she has been a clown since she was eight

C．laughter is a great help to sick children   D．working in hospital brings her extra money

What do clown doctors usually do in hospital?

A．Teach kids how to speak English.   Cheer kids up with funny stories.

C．Join in activities to raise money.    D．Develop kids’ sense of humor.

Lucy thinks that being a clown doctor is          .

A．a(chǎn)n honorable and meaningful practice    an interesting job to make a living

C．a(chǎn) good way of getting rid of her worries       D．a(chǎn)n experience of great fun

Earthquake is not an unfamiliar word to us as it is frequently covered on the news report. However, I never have the idea that it will take place in my city. But the truth is that it happened.

When the building began to shake, I thought it was dizziness（眩暈） caused by long-time nonstop work and colleagues also kept silent till one of them shouted “the chair is shaking”, then we come to understand it was not personal feelings, and we started to find the reason―the weak foundation of the building, or an earthquake （in a joking tone）, but we still kept doing what was in hand.

It was kind of scare when I looked back, because of our slow reaction and stupid response. It was said the staff in another building next to us all ran out of building with their handbags; some of them even drove away. On hearing that, I thought it was a bit exaggeration. Did they really have to do so? It was only 20－second mild shaking. But now, When I totally get to know what happened, I change my mind, It is not over－reacting , but natural self－protection response. Luckily it’s only the aftershocks; otherwise I guess I would be frightened to death. The aftershocks make me think what I’m going to do in case of an earthquake, which I would never give a second thought before. I don't know what’s on their mind for people who are on the spot of the earthquake, be frightened, at a loss, or simply running away, or trying to get contact with friends or …It is hard to imagine the picture and even harder to imagine what’s next.

For the first time, I have the feeling of insecurity. Humans are so fragile when they face the sudden disasters.

 

60. According to the first paragraph, the author thought____.

A. the earthquake was terrible.

B. the earthquake wouldn’t happen in his city.

C. man could not predict the earthquake.

D. the earthquake seldom happened.

61. Why did the author and his colleagues still keep working when the building began to shake?

A. Because they thought the earthquake was slight.

B. Because they thought the earthquake was just aftershocks.

C. Because they didn't take the shake seriously.

D. Because there were no signs of earthquake at that time.

62. At first, the staff’s response in another building struck the author as “____”.

A. stupid    B. over－reacting   C. foolish     D. reasonable

63. What does the underlined word “scare” mean?

A.驚奇           B. 幸運(yùn)           C.驚恐         D. 勇敢
