5、People often ask me how, as a man, I became so
devoted to improving the quality of women’s
lives. It wasn’t until age forty that I realized
what had started me down my career path.
One morning more than thirty-seven years ago, I was awakened by
the passing school bus. I was thirteen years old, living at home with my
two younger brothers and our mother, Doris Joy Heavin. She had just
passed her fortieth birthday. She was a mother of five children and had
suffered emotional and physical problems most of her life. Her doctor had
tried various treatments on her with little benefit.
As I awoke to the sound of the
passing school bus, my brother Paul came in and told me that I’d better come quickly because mother
was sick. As I knelt beside her bed, I could feel the absence of
warmth. I put my arms around her, first to feel for a sign of life, and
then as a final hug. I took my younger brothers, aged eight and nine, in
my arms and gently told them that our mother was in heaven.
Her death was unnecessary. The high blood pressure
causing the blood clot(血栓) that took her life was
unnecessary. Rather than medicate the symptoms, she could have
dealt with the cause of her high blood pressure: we now know that exercise and
proper nutrition will almost always reduce the causes of high blood pressure
and most other chronic(慢性的) diseases.
Many years later, while teaching a fitness and weight loss
class to a group of about eighty women, I realized I was subconsciously(下意識地) searching the crowd for the face of my mother.
57. The underlined part “medicate the symptoms” in Paragraph 4 probably means _______ .
A. provide proper nutrition
B. take exercise regularly
C. give up the treatment
D. treat the disease using medicine
58. What made the author devoted to improving the quality of women’s lives.
A. His mother’s illness and death.
B. The early loss of both his parents.
C. His support to the rights of women.
D. His knowledge of high blood pressure.
59. From the passage we learn that ________ .
A. the author was the oldest child in his family
B. the author’s father died long before his mother
C. high blood pressure is a kind of chronic disease
D. many women were found with blood clot at the time
60. Why did the author think his mother’s death was unnecessary?
A. Because her blood clot wasn’t a deadly disease at the time.
B. Because his mother wouldn’t have died if she had a job.
C. Because her high blood pressure could have been prevented.
D. Because his mother was not treated in the local hospital.
