One day my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. The other woman my wife wanted me to visit was my mother, who has been living alone for 19 years, but the demands of my work and my three children had made it impossible to visit her often.

That Friday after work, when I arrived at her house, my mother waited in the door with her coat on. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to celebrate her last wedding anniversary.

We went to a restaurant that, although not classical, was very nice and comfortable. My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady. After we sat down, I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only read large print. “It was I who used to have to read the menu when you were small,” she said. “Then it’s time that you relax and let me return the favor,” I answered.

During the dinner, we had a pleasant conversation nothing special but catching up on recent events of each other’s life. We talked so much that we missed the movie.

As we arrived at her house later, she said, “I’ll go out with you again, but only if you let me invite you.” I agreed.

A few days later, my mother died of a heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do anything for her.

Some time later, I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place mother and I had dined. A note said: paid this bill in advance. I wasn’t sure that I could be there; but I paid for two plates-one for you and the other for your wife. You will never know what that night meant for me. I love you, son.” At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time: ‘I LOVE YOU’ and to give our loved ones the time that they deserve. Nothing in life is more important than your family. Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be put off till some “other” time.

1.According to the passage, we know the writer’s mother .

A. lives with her son’s family

B. wanted to invite her son to have dinner again

C. wrote a letter to tell her son about her illness

D. died of a heart attack all of sudden

Starting the day on an egg could keep your blood pressure (血壓) under control, research suggests. Scientists have shown that eggs produce proteins with a function similar to that of powerful pressure-lowering drugs.

The research, from the University of Alberta in Canada, showed that when eggs come in contact with stomach enzymes (酶) they produce a protein that acts in the same way as Ace inhibitors, but more work is needed to show the effects outside a lab and in the human body.

Earlier this month, British researchers declared that, contrary to popular beliefs, it is healthy to go to work on an egg. They concluded that the type of cholesterol (膽固醇) found in eggs has little effect on increasing heart disease risks.

Researcher Professor Bruce Griffin, from the University of Surrey, said: ‘The wrong beliefs linking egg eating to high blood cholesterol and heart disease must be corrected. The amount of fat in our diet has an effect on blood cholesterol that is several times greater than the relatively small amounts of cholesterol found in eggs. The UK public do not need to be limiting the number of eggs they eat. They can be encouraged to include them in a healthy diet as they are one of nature’s most nutritious foods.”

The British Heart Foundation dropped its three-egg-a-week limit in 2005. However, almost half of Britons believe the limit still applies.

1.From the text we know that Ace inhibitors are .

A. a kind of medicine B. a kind of protein

C. a kind of illness D. a kind of food

2.According to what Professor Bruce said, eggs .

A. are the most nutritious food.

B. have no effect on blood cholesterol

C. can be included in a healthy diet

D. are forbidden to be eaten in the UK

3.We can infer from the text that .

A. drugs to lower blood pressure will be replaced by eating eggs

B. stomach enzymes mixed with eggs can cure heart diseases

C. most Britons agree the three-egg-a-week limit should be dropped

D. about 50% of Britons think eating an egg a day is bad for their health

4.The text is meant to .

A. introduce scientific findings about eggs

B. introduce a medicine made from eggs

C. tell people how to lower their blood pressure

D. advise people to eat as many eggs as possible
