John Weston
When John Weston awoke that morning, he remembered that his mother was going
into hospital. He hadnt worked out quite what was wrong with her. He knew, though, that she hadnt been well for some time now, and it had become almost familiar to him to see her eyes narrowed in a sudden attack of pain, and her hand pressing against her heart. Their own doctor, who she had finally gone to for advice, had sent her to a specialist who knew all about these things. He had told her that just as soon as there was a bed for her, she would have to come into his hospital where he could look after her himself.
During the weeks since then the pains had come over more frequently, and the nar- rowed eyes became an almost permanent part of her expression. Always rather sharp, she began losing her temper over little things so that Johns father kept his thoughts to him- self more and more. John, as ready as possible to make allowances, tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad a temper that would make you.
So his mother would go into hospital for a few days. He was going to stay with his Aunt Daisy till she came back, and his father would stay on at home by himself. Johns cousin, Mona, was to come in and make the bed and wash the pots and dust round now and again. That was the arrangement, and John didnt care much for it. Apart from missing his mother ,he wasnt very fond of his Aunt Daisy because she was even more bad-tempered than his mother.
41. Mrs. Weston went to see her doctor
A. as soon as she realized that something was wrong
B. only after her husband advised her to
C. a long time after the trouble began
D. when John asked what was wrong with her
42. What did Mrs. Westons own doctor decide to do?
A. He decided to get an expert to examine her.
B. He decided to send her to hospital.
C. He decided to treat her himself.
D. He advised her to wait for a few weeks.
43. Mrs. Westons more frequent bad temper made her husband
A. become bad-tempered too
B. spend less and less time at home
C. lose his temper more often with John
D. become more and more reserved
44. How did John react to his mothers bad temper?
A. He tried to imagine himself in her place.

约翰 怀斯顿
约翰.怀斯顿那天早上醒来时记起母亲要去住院。他并没有搞明白她哪里不舒服。虽然他知道她已经有很长一段时间不舒服了，而且看到她的眼睛由于疼痛突然眯起，看到她的手总是按在心脏部位，他几乎也已经习惯了。最后她向他们家的私人医生咨询，医生把她送到了一位了解这种病症的专家那里。这位专家告诉她，一旦有床位她就得住院，这样他可以亲自照料她。
从那以后的几周里，由于疼痛更加频繁，半闭的眼睛也几乎成了她表情中永久的一部分了。她开始经常为一些小事大发脾气，这样约翰的父亲就越来越沉默了。约翰尽可能地体谅她，极力想象着经常牙疼该是什么样，那会使你的脾气有多么糟糕。
因此，他母亲得去医院住几天。在母亲回来前，他要去戴西姨妈家住上一阵子，他父亲将一个人待在家里。约翰的表姐莫娜会来铺铺床、洗洗锅、不时地打扫打扫卫生。就是这么安排的，约翰对此不太满意。除去想念母亲，他并不喜欢他的戴西姨妈，因为她的脾气比约翰的母亲更糟。
