Two elderly women in my community died "full of years,"which means both died from the normal wearing out of the body after a long and full life. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid visits to the two families.
The son of one of the deceased(已故的) women said to me,"If only I had sent my mother to Florida and got her out of this cold ,she would be alive today. "The son of the other deceased woman said, "If only I hadn't insisted on my mother's going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could take. "
When things don't turn out as we would like them to, it is very likely for us to think that if we had done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty.
There seem to be two elements in our readiness to feel guilty. The first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense and that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to try to find the patterns and connections.
The second element is the notion(观念)that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. Psychologists trace this feeling back to our childhood. A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. The world works for him. When he cries, someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow the notion that our wishes cause things to happen.
69.What is said about the two deceased elderly women?
A. They lived long and died after a natural life.
B. They died due to lack of care by family members.
C. They died of the tiredness after the long plane ride.
D. They weren't quite used to the change in weather.
70.People feel guilty for the deaths of their beloved ones because_______.
A. they believe that they were responsible
B. they do not know the natural course of events
C. they couldn't find a better way to express their grief
D. they didn't know things often turn out in the opposite direction
71.The underlined sentence "the world makes sense" probably means that_______.
A. we have to be sensible so as to understand the world
B. everything in the world is pre-determined
C. there's an explanation for everything in the world
D. the world can be interpreted in different ways
72.People have been made to believe since babyhood that_______.
A. every story should have a happy ending
B. their wishes are the cause of everything that happens
C. life and death is an unsolved mystery
D. everybody should obey their wills without question

Twelve years ago yesterday, my mother gave birth to the most beautiful girl.  31 , we were later given the  32  that this little girl, who was three and a half months old, would only have 14 days on the earth. It’s hard to understand what kind of  33  you have when you find out that you’re  34 something that you don’t even know.

As time went on, the number of days kept growing, which gave us  35 . When the doctors said that we could take her home, that was  36 reality hit. We had no  37 .

I am from a small town with  38 hospitals, but when you don’t have money, you just don’t  have it. My mother tried for days to get the money, but nothing  39 each time. A caseworker(社会工作者) was even doing her best. It’s  40 that it almost felt as if we had to  41  a baby from the hospital.

One day the caseworker walked into her boss’s office to  42  again. As she walked out,  43 down yet again, out of nowhere a man walked up to her. He  44 her a handful of money and said, “Please give this to the lady in  45 , so she can take her daughter home.” She looked down at her hand with tears in her eyes. As she looked back up to thank him, he was  46  . They searched all over that hospital and he was no where to be  47 .

Thanks to the guy that I will  48 know, we could take home that  49 baby girl that was only given 14 days to live, and celebrated her 12th birthday yesterday. I am grateful to this man and feel that his act of  50 should be shared with everyone.
