    阅读理解

    　　“Mom, I have cancer．”These four words catapulted my son and me on a journey that lasted two years．On that dat I felt a wave of paralyzing fear．

    　　Scott was the oldest of my four children．He was 33 years old and a successful assistant principal at SamRayburn Hifht School in Pasadena, Texas．He and his wife Carolyn were busy raising four active children．Scott was 6'2'', weighed 200 pounds and had never been sick a day in his life．

    　　A few month earlier a mole(痣)on his neck had changed color．“Dr．Warner called,” Scott said that spring morning．“It's melanoma．(黑素瘤)” I tried to comfort him, naming all the people I knew who had survived skin cancer．Yet, I felt small tentacles of fear begin to wrap around my chest．

    　　Our next stop was MDAnderson, the famous cancer hospital in Houston．Scott had surgery at the end of May and was scheduled for radiation treatments over the summmer recess．“There is an 80 percent chance it won't reoccur,” the doctors said．At the end of summer, all his tests came back negative and Scott was back at school in the fall．However, in December, Scott discovered a lump on his neck．It was examined and the result came back “malignant．(恶性的)” We now relized that Scott fell into the 20 percent category．I could feel the tentacles tightening around my chest．He entered the hospital for an aggressive treatment, a combination of interferon and interleukin．

    　　After five months of treatment, he had radical surgery on his neck．The test results were encourging, only three of the 33 lymph nodes(淋巴结)removed were malignant．We were very hopefull．

    　　For the next six months, Scott's follow-up visits went well．Then in October, X-ray revealed a spot on his lung．The spot was removed during surgery and the doctors tried to be optimistic．It was a daily battle to control the fear and panic each setback brought．

    　　In January, he was diagnosed as having had a “disease explosion．” The cancer had spread to his lungs, spine and liver and he was given three to six months to live．There were times during this period when I felt like I was having a heart attack．The bands constricting my chest made breathing difficult．

    　　When you watch your child battle cancer, you experience a roller coaster of emotions．There are moments of hope and optimism but a bad test result or even an unusual pain can bring on dread and panic．

    　　Scott was readmitted to the hospital for one last try with chemotherapy．He died, quite suddenly, just six weeks after his last diagnosis．I was completely destroyed．I had counted on those last few months．

    　　The next morning I was busy notifying people and making funeral arrangements．I remember having this nagging feeling that something was physically wrong with me．It took a moment to realize that the crushing sensation in my chest was gone．The thing every parent fears the most had happened．My son was gone．Of course, the fear had been replaced by unbearable sorrow．

    　　After you lose a child, it is so difficult to go on．The most minimal tasks, combing your hair or taking a shower, becoming monumental．For months I just sat and stared into space．That spring, the trees began to bloom; flowers began to pop up in my garden．Friendswood was coming back to life but I was dead inside．

    　　During those last weeks, Scott and I often spoke about life and death．Fragments of those conversations kept playing over and over in my mind．

    　　“Don't let this ruin your life, Mom．”

    　　“Make sure Dad re models his workshop．”

    　　“Please, take care of my family．”

    　　I remember wishing I could have just one more conversation with him．I knew what I would say, but what would Scott say? “I know how much you love me, Mom．So just sit on the couch and cry．” No, I knew him better than that．Scott loved life and knew how precious it is．I could almost hear his voice saying, “Get up Mom, Get on with your life．It's too valuable to waste．”

    　　That was the day I began to move forward．I signed up for a cake decorating class．Soon I was making cakes for holidays and birthdays．My daughter-in-law told me about a writing class in Houston．I hadn't written in years, but since I was retired I decided it be time to start again．The local college advertised a Life Story Writing class that I joined．There I met women who had also lost their children．The Poet Laureate of Texas was scheduled to speak at our local Barnes and Noble．I attended and joined our local poetry society．I never dreamed that writing essays and poems about Scott could be so therapeutic．Several of those poems have ever been published．In addition, each group brought more and more people into my life．．

    　　I don't believe you ever recover from the loss of a child．Scott is in my heart and mind every day．However, I do believe you can survive．

    　　Scott fought so bravery to live and he never gave up．He taught me that life is a gift that should be cherished, not wasted．It has taken years to become the person I am today．The journey has been a difficult , painful process but certainly worth the effort and I know that my son would be proud．

    阅读理解，阅读下面短文，从各题A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。

    　　Which are you more likely to have with you at any given moment-your cell phone or your wallet? Soon you may be able to throw your wallet away and pay for things with a quick wave of your smart phone over an electronic scanner．

    　　In January, Starbucks announced that customers could start using their phones to buy coffee in 6, 800 of its stores．This is the first pay-by-phone practice in the U．S．, but we’re likely to see more wireless payment alternatives as something called near field communication(NFC)gets into America's consumer electronics．Last December, some new smart phones which contain an NFC chip were introduced to the public．

    　　Already in use in parts of Asia and Europe, NFC allows shoppers to wave their phones a few inches above a payment terminal-a contact-free system built for speed and convenience．But before NFC becomes widely adopted in the U．S．, a few problems need to be worked out, like who will get to collect the profitable transaction(交易)fees．Although some credit card providers have been experimenting with wave-and-pay systems that use NFC-enabled credit cards, cell phone service providers may try to muscle their way into the point-of-sale(POS)market．Three big cell phone service providers have formed a joint venture(合资企业)that will go into operation over the next 15 months．Its goal is “to lead the U．S．payments industry from cards to mobile phone．”

    　　The other big NFC issue, apart from how payments will be processed, is security．For instance, what's to stop a thief from digitally pick-pocketing you? “We’re still not at the point where an attacker can just brush against you in a crowd and steal all the money out of your phone, ” says Jimmy Shah．A mobile-security researcher, “Users may also be able to set transaction limits, perhaps requiring a password to be entered for larger purchases．”

    　　Still uneasy about this digital-wallet business? Keep in mind that if you lose your smart phone, it can be located on a map and remotely disabled．Plus, your phone can be password protected．Your wallet isn't．

    (1)

    What is predicted to happen in the U．S．?

    [　　]

    A．

    The expansion of cell phone companies．

    B．

    The boom of pay-by-phone business．

    C．

    The disappearance of credit cards．

    D．

    The increase of Starbucks sales．

    (2)

    The NFC technology can be used to ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    ensure the safety of shoppers

    B．

    collect transaction fees easily

    C．

    make purchase faster and simpler

    D．

    improve the quality of cell phones

    (3)

    Three cell phone service providers form a joint venture to ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    strengthen their relationship

    B．

    test the NFC technology

    C．

    sell more cell phones

    D．

    get a share in the payments industry

    (4)

    According to the passage, what can users do if they lose their smart phones?

    [　　]

    A．

    Stop the functioning of their phones．

    B．

    Set up a password．

    C．

    Get all the money out of their phones．

    D．

    Report it to the bank．
