第三篇 Milk That Paid a Medical BillOne day,a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school found he had only one thin dime(10分钱)left,and he was hungry.He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house.However,he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door.Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water.She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk.He drank it slowly,and then asked,"How much do I owe you?""You don't owe me anything,"she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness."He said, "Then I thank you from my heart."As Howard Kelly left that house,he not only felt stronger physically,but his faith in God and man was strong also.He had been ready to give up and quit.Years later that young woman became critically ill.The local doctors were baffled(感到困惑).They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare disease.Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation.When he heard the name of the town she came from,a strange light filled his eyes.Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to seeher. He recognized her at once.He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life.From that day he gave special attention to the case.After a long struggle,the battle was won.Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval.He looked at it;then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to her room.She feared to open it,for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all.Finally she looked,and something caught her attention on the side of the bill.She read these words:"Paid in full with one glass of milk."Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed:"Thank You,God,that Your love has spread abroad through human hearts and hands."

Lisa was running late.Lisa,25,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way:her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs,she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn′t been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away,Frank,43,and his girlfriend,Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the.train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream,followed by someone yelling,"Oh,my God,she fell in!"Frank didn′t hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!Not you!"his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa,he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she′d been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn′t,and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived,and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,"she explained.
How did Frank save Lisa?A.By lifting her to the platform.
B.By helping her rise to her feet.
C.By pulling her along the ground.
D.By dragging her away from the edge.

单选题Lucky is the man who has no "skeleton in his closet". When
a man has done something in his life that he is ashamed of, that he wants to
hide, he is said to have a "skeleton in his closet". Some people may have more
than one skeleton. As we have noted many times, it is
hard to find out how these expressions begin. Sometimes, we get some hard facts.
But more often we have to depend on guesswork. And that is true of this phrase,
which came from England. Before 1932, English law did not
permit a doctor to cut open a dead human body for scientific examination, unless
it was the corpse (尸体) of an executed (处决) criminal. But when
it became legal, more and more doctors demanded skeletons for a more scientific
study of medicine. It was helping in the advance of modern medicine. The demand
had become so strong that men began to rob tombs and sell skeletons to doctors
at high prices. We are told that a doctor would usually buy
just one skeleton for scientific study. It became very important in his work.
But he had to keep it hidden because most people objected to keeping such a
thing. As a rule, the doctor would keep his skeleton in some dark corner where
it could not be seen, or hide it in a closet. After a time,
people began to suspect (怀疑) every doctor of hiding a skeleton in the closet.
From this suspicion, the phrase "a skeleton in the closet" took on a broader,
more general meaning to describe anything that a man wanted to keep others from
discovering. It could be proof of a criminal act, or something much less
serious. Well, that is one theory. One writer, however,
believes that the phrase might have come from something that really happened. It
is his guess that a hidden closet in some old English country home may have
turned up a real skeleton, clear proof of some old family shame or crime. Well,
one man’s guess is as good as another. But this sounds like a story by the great
French novelist, Balzac. Baizac tells us of a man who suspected
his wife of having a lover. The husband comes home by surprise. But she hears
him and quickly hides her lover in the closet of her bedroom. He enters her room
and asks her if she is hiding her lover. He says he will not open the door to
the closet if she promises him there is no one there; He will believe her. She
answers firmly that she is not hiding anyone in the closet. The
husband then begins to build a solid brick wall against the closet. His wife
watches, knowing that her lover will never come out alive. But she will not
change her story and admit her guilt.From the story Balzac told we know that the wife’s lover must have
become ().A
a corpseB
a phraseC
a skeletonD
a secret
