In fact, she was carrying a painting of a plant she’d done when she arrived at her doctor’s San Francisco office. “It would be great if we had artworks like that for our chemotherapy (化療) rooms,” the nurse said. Ballard asked to see one.She was shocked by what she found. The walls were dull and bare, and the paint was chipping(剝落). It was a depressing room for a depressing routine—patients were restricted to chemo drips for perhaps several hours, often with nothing to look at other than those sad walls. Ballard didn’t have cancer herself, but she could sympathize with the patients. “I couldn’t imagine how anyone could even think about getting healthy in a room like that,” she says. As it happened, Ballard’s physician, Stephen Hufford, was ill with cancer himself, so finding time to decorate the rooms was low on his to-do list. So Ballard made it her mission to brighten up the place.She started by e-mailing 20 local designers. “I wrote, ‘You don’t know me. But my heart hurts after seeing these rooms,’” she remembers. She then asked whether they would donate their time and money to transforming just one of Dr. Hufford’s rooms each.As it happened, six of them wrote back almost immediately. Six rooms got new paint, light fixtures, artworks, and furniture. Dr. Hufford was delighted. “All the patients feel relieved of the pain because of it,” he said. He even noted that his own tone of voice was different in the rooms and that he was better able to connect with his patients.Ballard was so encouraged by the patients’ reactions that she created a non-profit, Rooms That Rock 4 Chemo, to raise money and decorate more spaces. Since then, she has worked on 20 projects, including one in Pennsylvania. “We were in Philadelphia for a ribbon-cutting, and a woman was there on her third battle with cancer,” says Ballard. “When she saw what we’d done, she said, ‘I’m gonna beat it this time. I thought I wasn’t going to, but now I know I’m gonna beat it.’”1.What made Ballard decide to help decorate the chemotherapy rooms?A.Her sympathy for cancer patients.B.Her passion for room decoration.C.The good relationship with Hufford.D.The request of a nurse in San Francisco.2.What outcome does Ballard’s effort bring about?A.More hospitals will be built.B.Hufford cured more patients.C.The cancer patients were feeling better.D.Hufford’s chemotherapy rooms got good fame.3.Which words best describe Nancy Ballard?

Understand that you always have a right to turn down an invitation or refuse a favor and figure out the best ways to say “No”. Here are some specific tips.Give yourself permission to say no. Many people have an immediate reaction to say “Yes” when they’re asked to do someone a favor. Keep in mind,you are never required to say “Yes”. It’s actually okay to say “No” sometimes. Accept this as you prepare to say “No” to someone. 2Set up your personal boundaries.3However, that reason does not have to be concrete. Many people think if they can do something, they should. Your reason for saying “No” can be a simple matter of your own personal boundaries. Think about what boundaries you have, and accept the fact that you’re allowed to stay true to them.4People often won’t take “No” for an answer. If you say “No” to people,they may give you various reasons to change your mind. Stay determined for your decision and do not give in easily.Practice saying “No”. It may sound silly, but you can actually practice saying “No” alone. 5Practice giving a firm “No” to someone, and you’ll get comfortable with the word. Many people are nervous about saying “No” and may say “Yes” due to anxiety. Practicing can help get rid of some of this anxiety.A.This will help you say “No” with ease.B.Be aware of potential persuasion techniques.C.Find a good chance to stand in front of a crowd.D.It’s always easier to say “No” if you have a reason.E.Try standing before a mirror and looking at yourself.F.It’s rather easy for you to set up your personal boundaries.G.If someone asks you a favor,you may feel you have to say “Yes”.答案及解析A[語篇解讀] 本文是一篇記敘文。2011年,南希·巴拉德去做了一次例行檢查,結(jié)果卻變成了一件非同尋常的事。她發(fā)現(xiàn)化療室很簡陋,影響癌癥患者化療的心情。她努力籌集資金幫助裝修化療室,使病人鼓起生活的勇氣。1.A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的 Ballard didn’t have cancer herself, but she could sympathize with the patients.以及 So Ballard made it her mission to brighten up the place.可知,巴拉德本人沒有患癌癥,但她同情病人,因此,巴拉德的使命是讓這個(gè)地方煥然一新。故選A。2.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中Six rooms got new paint, light fixtures, artworks, and furniture. Dr. Hufford was delighted. “All the patients feel relieved of the pain because of it,” he said. 可知,六個(gè)房間有新油漆、燈具、藝術(shù)品和家具,所有的病人都感到疼痛減輕了。故選C。3.A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容可知, Nancy Ballard熱心腸,幫助籌集資金裝修化療室,使病人鼓起生活的勇氣。故選A。4.A 主旨大意題。根據(jù)全文可知, Nancy Ballard幫助癌癥患者鼓起堅(jiān)強(qiáng)活下去的勇氣,通過募捐集資方式重新設(shè)計(jì)化療室。故選A。B[語篇解讀]本文為說明文。本文主要介紹了人們?nèi)绾斡赂业叵蛩苏f“不”。1.G根據(jù)前一句的內(nèi)容可知,很多人總是在苦苦掙扎,不敢說“不”。由此可推知,如果總是這樣的話,當(dāng)別人要請你幫忙的時(shí)候,你可能會感到你不得不說“可以”,故選G項(xiàng)。2.A本段講述的是要允許自己拒絕別人。很多人會不自覺地接受他人的請求,但是你并不是一定要對他人說“可以”。這將幫助你輕而易舉地說“不”,故選A。3.D根據(jù)空后一句“However, that reason does not have to be concrete.”可知,D項(xiàng)“如果你有一個(gè)理由的話,說‘不’總是比較容易的”符合語境,故選D項(xiàng)。4.B空后三句講述的是人們通常不會接受“不”的,他們會找種種理由讓你改變主意,因此我們要堅(jiān)持自己的決定,不要輕易屈服。由此可推知,我們要知道他人的勸說技巧,故選B項(xiàng)。5.E本段講述的是要訓(xùn)練自己說“不”。該空前一句提到訓(xùn)練說“不”可能聽起來很愚蠢,但是實(shí)際上你可以獨(dú)自去訓(xùn)練自己說“不”,由此可知E項(xiàng)“試著站在鏡子前,看著自己”符合語境,銜接上下文,故選E項(xiàng)。
