She me with a serious voice , “Sit down , doctor . This is my story , not yours .”

I was surprised and . I sat down a helped her with the socks . She began to tell me that her only son lived not far from her , she had not seen him for five years . She believed her health problems were worse because of her son . After hearing her story and helping her put on her socks , I asked if there was I could do for her . She her head and smiled . All she wanted me to do was to .

Each story is . Some are clear; others are not. Some are true; others are not , yet all those things do not really . What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard .

Listening to someone’s story costs nothing but it is the key to healing (康復(fù)). I often what the woman taught me , and I myself of the importance of stopping , sitting down and truly listening . I the power of listening .

If man’s best friend is a dog, then who is a dog’s best friend? That would be Rover, Glow, Ivan, or Raina. These four dogs donated (捐獻(xiàn)) blood to other dogs. And they did it without having to travel far from home. They visited an animal bloodmobile (血液車(chē)).

Similar to the Red Cross vehicles for humans, the University of Pennsylvania’s animal bloodmobile goes to where the donors are to make it easier to give. Kym Marryott is manager of Penn’s Animal Blood Bank. “You don’t really think about it until you need it,” Marryott said. “Just like us, dogs need blood too.”

Like humans, not every dog can donate blood. Dogs must have the correct blood type, weigh at least 55 pounds and be younger than 8 years old. About 150 dogs take part in the program. Each donates three or four pints a year, which can help animals suffering from illnesses like cancer or an accidental trauma (意外傷) like being hit by a car. One pint can save up to three dogs. Just like people, the dogs get a snack and a heart-shaped “U of P Blood Donor” sticker after giving. In addition, they receive free dog food to take home.

Sandy Lucas brought her 7-year-old black dog, Raina, to the bloodmobile last week. “I was excited that she had the right blood which could help another dog out,” she said. “We’ll do it again.”

1.Where did the dogs donate blood?

A. In a zoo. B. In their homes.

C. In an animal hospital.D. In an animal bloodmobile.

2.Which of the following dogs can probably donate blood?

A. Mary,3 years old,25 pounds. B. Kate,6 years old,60 pounds.

C. Tony,10 years old,56 pounds. D. Cindy,8 years old,50 pounds.

3.What can each dog get after donating blood?

①A snack ②A suit of clothes

③Some dog food ④A heart-shaped sticker ⑤A toy car

A. ①②③④ B. ①③⑤ C. ①④⑤ D. ①③④

4.What can we infer推斷 from the underlined劃線(xiàn)的 sentence?

A. Sandy Lucas feels excited that Raina can help other dogs.

B. Sandy Lucas wants to get dog food for her dog.

C. Sandy Lucas doesn’t think that donating blood is good for dogs.

D. Sandy Lucas doesn’t want to come to the animal bloodmobile again.

5.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Dogs are always man’s best friends.

B. An animal bloodmobile is very useful.

C. Dogs can help dogs by donating blood.

D. Dogs and people can get along well with each other.
