B
Before I came to live here, I spent a lot of time at Wuthering Heights. My mother looked after Hindley Earnshaw, Hareton’s father. Hindley and I were the same age. His sister Catherine was eight years younger than us. One day old Mr. Earnshaw went to Liverpool on business. He was away for three days and when he came back, he brought a child with him. The child wasn’t very old, about Catherne’s age but he was dirty and dressed in rags(衣衫描楼). They called him Heathcliff. Not long after that, Mrs. Earnshaw died, and the three children were left without a mother.
Catherine and Heathcliff became close friends, but Hindley always hated him. I must say, I didn’t like him much either. He was a strange child. He never complained or cried when Hindley hit him. Old Mr. Earnshaw was very angry when he discovered that his son was persecuting (道 署) the boy. Heathcliff was definitely his favorite.
I often wondered why Mr. Earnshaw ____ _____ him. Heathcliff never showed any signs of care
for the old man or any signs of gratitude (感激) either. But the old man’s love gave him power over Hindley.
As Mr. Earnshaw got older and weaker, he became bad - tempered (牌气暴躁). Hindley often made him angry by saying nasty things about Heathcliff. Once or twice the old man lifted his stick to hit his son but he was too weak to do it. Then he shook with anger. In the end the local curate(助理牧师) advised him to send Hindley away to school. Mr. Earnshaw agreed but he was sad to see his son leave.
“Maybe we’ll have some peace now,” I thought.
Catherine was a very pretty girl with thick dark curls and dark eyes and a passionate (热情的) nature. She talked, sang and laughed from the moment she got up to the moment she went to bed. She liked to play the mistress (女主人) of the house, giving Hindley, Heathcliff and me orders When the boys didn’t obey her, she hit them. But I never let her hit me. She was crazy about Heathcliff. The worst punishment (惩罚) we could invent for her was to keep them separate.
Then one October evening, Mr. Earnshaw died quietly in his chair. Both Catherine and Heathcliff were very sad. They cried and cried. I didn’t have time to comfort them because I had to go to the village to get the doctor. When I came back, I went straight to their room. It was after midnight but they weren't asleep. They were comforting each other by describing all the beautiful things in heaven. Tears ran down my face as I listened to them.

九、任务型阅读
Hospitals are doing experiments with Tele - medicine. Tele - medicine is a technology that allows
doctor to “see” patients without them being in the same place. This is made possible through high-speed communication networks.
Tele-medicine is already in wide use in some places such as the USA and the UK. At both ends of the line, the way of video - meeting lets them see and talk to each other. Blood pressure and body temperature are directly shown on computers. Among other uses, village doctors hold “consultations” (会诊) with far-away experts. The experts can also help them during operations.
Tele-medicine has been slow to reach Asia because of high costs, besides other reasons. When things improve, this technology will develop very fast. Chinese University of Hong Kong’s medical school has joined a big hospital in Beijing, and Thailand is building a tele - medicine station connecting 20 areas.
Tele-medicine will do good to patients because doctors from different places can see them and
give their medical advice. The help is of great importance if the disease is an unusual one. It also helps spread medical knowledge among experts.
As tele-medicine develops well, it will be cheaper and more popular in the medical field.
Tele-medicine
