C
For some survivors of the Ebola virus disease, complete recovery is slow.
Doctors reporting Wednesday on a follow-up survey of the nine survivors who were treated for the Ebola virus in the U.S. say the survivors experienced a wide range of symptoms, involving many organ systems, for months after their successful treatment for the virus.
Dr. Tim Uyeki, an epidemiologist and one of the authors of the report, says it’s still unclear, in some cases, whether the long-lasting symptoms were caused by remaining traces of Ebola virus, were leftover damage from the infection or its treatment — or were caused by something else. But none of the nine survivors show any risk of spreading Ebola virus, he says.
The report was published as a letter in this week’s New England Journal of Medicine.
Over the decades, survivors of the Ebola virus have reported long-lasting symptoms that range from blurry(模糊的) vision and joint pain to depression and hearing loss.
Nancy Writebol told the Charlotte Observer last July, a year after she was diagnosed with Ebola, that she was still experiencing knee pain and hadn’t fully recovered her energy.
According to a Dallas Morning News story in March, Ebola survivor Nina Pham was experiencing body aches and liver problems, and was frightened by the unknown possible long-term effects of Ebola and experimental treatments used to save her life.
And in some survivors the virus clearly managed to hide in some parts of the body, even after they had otherwise recovered.
Dr. Ian Crozier, who contracted Ebola in Sierra Leone, almost went blind from Ebola virus that hid for a time deep inside his left eye, even after he was no longer contagious(傳染性的) and the rest of his body had been cleared of the virus.
Earlier this year, Pauline Cafferkey, a Scottish nurse who had survived Ebola, had to be readmitted to a London hospital several months after her initial discharge(出院). Her new problem? Meningitis(腦膜炎) that doctors there linked to her Ebola infection. Cafferkey had made a full recovery from the meningitis and returned to Scotland according to a previous report.
Of the 11 patients treated in U.S. hospitals, nine survived. Since March, doctors with the CDC have checked in with eight of these survivors to see how they are doing, an average of five months after their discharge. The ninth survivor was still in the hospital at the time of the survey.

I have a particular lunch bag kept with me for maybe 14 years. But actually it belongs to my daughter, Molly.
Soon after she came of school age, she became an enthusiastic participant in packing lunches for herself, her brothers and me. Each bag got a share of sandwiches, apples, milk money and sometimes a note. One morning, Molly handed me two bags, one regular lunch sack(袋子) and the other one with paper clips(紙夾) on it.
“Why two bags?”
“The other one is something else.”
“What’s in it?”
“Just some stuffs(東西). Please take it with you.” she replied and then I put both sacks into my briefcase, kissed the child and rushed off.
At midday, after having my lunch from one bag, I opened the other one and shook out the contents. Two hair ribbons, three small stones, a plastic dinosaur, a tiny seashell, two animal crackers, a marble, a used lipstick, a small doll, two chocolate kisses and 13 pennies.
I thought they were useless, and then threw them into the wastebasket.
That evening Molly came to stand beside me while I was reading the paper.
“Where’s my bag?”
“What bag?”
“You know the one I gave you this morning.”
“I left it at the office, why?”
“I forgot to put this note in it.” She handed over the note, “Besides, I want it back.”
“Why?”
“Those are my things in the sack, Daddy, the ones I really like. I thought you might be very happy to play with them like me, but now I want them back. You didn’t lose the bag, did you, Daddy?” Tears welled up in her eyes.
“Oh, no. I just forgot to bring it home,” I lied, “Bring it tomorrow. Okay?”
As she hugged my neck with relief, I found the words on the note — “I love you, Daddy.” I felt moved as well as a little ashamed. I looked at the face of my child for a long time.
Molly had given me her treasures — all that a 7-year-old considered important. That was “Love” in a paper sack. But not only had I missed it, but also I had thrown it away because “there wasn’t anything in there I needed.”
The next morning, after kissing my girl, I hurried to my office. I picked up the wastebasket and poured the contents on my desk. I gently washed the mustard(芥末) off my girl’s treasures and spraying(噴灑) them with breath freshener to kill the smell of onions. And then put them into the bag again. The next evening, I returned it to Molly.
After dinner I asked her to tell me about the stuffs in the sack. Happy and excited, she placed the objects in a row on the dining room table and explained them to me one by one. I found that each of the objects had a story, a memory or was attached to dreams and friends that meant a lot to Molly. Since I was Molly’s beloved father, she was willing to share what she considered important with me.
Later, to my surprise, Molly gave the bag to me once again several days later. Same ratty bag. Same stuffs inside. I felt forgiven. And trusted. And loved. And a little more comfortable wearing the title of Father. Over several months, the bag went with me from time to time. And I have kept it with me until today.
65. What kind of girl was Molly?
A. Stubborn. B. Disturbing. C. Naughty. D. Considerate.
66. Why did Molly prepare two bags for the author?
A. To give her father more food. B. To share stories with her father.
C. To make her father happier. D. To show off her collection.
67. From the underlined part, we know that the author__________.
A. felt very sorry for what he had done B. didn’t find anything useful in the bag
C. felt relaxed by throwing away the bag D. missed his daughter very much
68. What does the second bag mean to the author?
A. It is a bag every family possesses for lunch.
B. It is a bag into which important things are put.
C. It is a bag of love his daughter shows for him.
D. It is a bag of sweet memories shared with her daughter.
69. What is the right order of the following statements?
a. I threw the second bag and its contents away after lunch.
b. Molly shared the hidden stories of each object in the bag.
c. I was offered two bags one morning.
d. Molly wanted her bag back in the evening.
e. I picked the bag with stuffs up and cleaned them.
f. The bag was given to me again and kept along with me.
A. a c b d e f B. c a e d f b C. a c d b f e D. c a d e b f
70. What lesson does the passage teach us?
A. Prepare sacks, offer love. B. Share treasures, appreciate love.
C. Show forgiveness, gain trust. D. Value memories, enjoy life.

Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? When you select your career, there’s a whole lot more to it than assessing (評定) your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job’s pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas:
Do you enjoy working with computers?
I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and you’ll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.
Do you prefer working alone or with other people?
There are isolating(使孤立) jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.
How do you handle change?
Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes don’t happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.
What type of work environment do you enjoy?
This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won’t know immediately to a smaller setting where you’ll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.
How do you like to get paid?
Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.
Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. I’ve seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.

Heavy smog is forecast to blanket Beijing on Saturday and is expected to last for four days, forcing the government to adopt the strictest measures to ease pollution. These include reducing by half the number of vehicles on the roads based on odd and even license plate numbers and shutting down industrial operations.
Wang Bin, head of the Emergency Response Department of the Beijing Bureau of Environmental Protection, said emergency measures will be in effect from 7 a.m. on Saturday until midnight on Tuesday.

書面表達(dá):
Due to extremely heavy smog, another red alert has been issued in Beijing, indicating it is high time that effective measures should be taken to deal with this serious problem.(30 words)
As far as I know, there are several factors contributing to the problem of smog. First and foremost, the waste air coming from cars on roads plays a leading role. In addition, many factories produce large amounts of harmful chemicals, giving rise to the formation of smog. Smoke from daily activities is also responsible, which adds to the severity of this pollution.
As common citizens, we might as well avoid going out on smoggy days to protect ourselves. If we have to, wear special masks as a defence. What’s more, it’s our responsibility to do our part to reduce air pollution. We can take as much public transportation as possible or ride bikes instead of driving cars, thus creating a clear and safe environment.(124 words)
