Bea, a five-year-old girl, was born with a severe illness which means she has to be kept away from other children her age, because her body is so weak that she would be unable to fight off a common cold.

Bea was diagnosed (診斷) with this disease when she was five months old. Since then, the hospital has become her second home, medicines for food, and all kinds of treatments her friends. Bea received a very special treatment when she was four years old, which would allow her to be like a normal child if successful. After that, she spent two weeks in ICU before living for four months on a separate ward(病房). Bea was allowed home in February but still needed a special tube in her nose to send in medicine every two days.

Her parents clean the house from top to bottom every two days and hoover (用吸塵器清掃) each morning to make sure Bea is free from any possible bacteria. Anna, Bea’s mother, said, “She is weak but so strong. We’ve never seen any child stronger than her. It seems as if nothing in the world could beat her. We really hope to send her to school next year.” She used to drive on the local playground, but Bea was only allowed to watch sitting in the car. “It was heartbreaking to see Bea staring at the running and laughing children there. She never stopped fighting the disease. I know she’s dying for such a normal life.”

    Hearing of Bea’s story, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has paid for a play park to be built in her back garden. “Bea is very brave and she has encouraged many children like her,” said the chairman of the foundation.

56. If Bea stayed with other children freely, ___________.

   A. other children would have a higher chance to catch her disease

   B. she would catch a common cold which would kill her quickly

   C. her life would be in great danger as she could fall ill easily

   D. she would be lost in playing and forget to receive treatment

57. From the passage we can infer that ___________.

   A. Bea will need a tube in her nose all the time

   B. Bea has to stay in hospital until she is an adult

   C. Bea’s parents will send her to school next year

   D. Bea’s mother feels proud when talking about her

58. The Make-A-Wish Foundation had a play park built for Bea to ___________.

   A. honor her bravery in fighting against her disease

   B. call for attention to this immune system deficiency

   C. encourage more children like Bea to be optimistic

59. What makes Bea so brave to fight against this serious disease?

   B. Her dreaming of owning a play park.

   C. Her wish to become a normal child.

   D. Her doctor’s skills and experience.
