13、o love God.I can lie here and love God and maybe it will help him.”This is the kind of story that I find impossibly inspiring and provides great impetus for me to make a change.

17、 are, we can be caring.答案与解析本文属于哲理性文章。文章通过一个在救济院的病人Linda之口，说明人的生命如此短暂而珍贵。我们给予婴儿和孩子太多的爱，却忘记了关爱成年人，尤其是当我们老了，更需要爱。1D推理判断题。根据第一段最后she shares so many powerful storieseach story is a parting gift from a hospice (救济院)patient who never knew when a newly arriving day might be their last.第三段but a new face cou
18、ld be forgotten in as little time as it took to leave the room and return again.根据这两句，没人知道谁什么时候死去，但是一个新面孔很快就被忘掉，就像进出房间那么快一样，说明在救济院的人进来后很快就死了。由此推断出生命很短暂，但很珍贵，D符合题意。2C推理判断题。根据第四段：我们给予婴儿和孩子太多的爱，但随着他们的成长，爱停止了。没有人爱大人。生活变得更艰难，更不容易，但就在我们需要爱的时候，没有人爱我们了。有一天，当我躺在这里的时候，我意识到上帝也太老了。他一定需要更多的爱。人们总是向他要求那么多，但有谁能用爱来回

We can be caring. We can love. We can be the very love that we need.我们
20、不一定要勇敢、强壮的甚至特别健全的心去做好事。我们可以有爱心。我们可以爱。我们可以是我们所需要的爱。根据此判断，不论是什么样的人，我们都要去爱他们，同时我们也需要爱，故选D。BWashington DC Bicycle ToursCherry Blossom Bike Tour in Washington, DC.Duration: 3 hoursThis small group bike tour is a fantastic way to see the worldfamous cherry trees with beautiful flowers of Washington DC You
