13、e was from a noble family.（分数：1.00）A.正确B.错误 解析：解析 1-10Florence Nightingale was born in 1820 while her parents were on a visit to Italy. Her parents were rich, and when she was young, Florence was much admired in London society for her beauty and her wit. Even so, from the time when she was 17, she w

14、as determined that her life would be devoted to the care for the sick.Her parents were shocked when she asked for permission to enter a hospital for training, because the hospitals at that time were unhealthful places and most of the nurses were ignorant and drunken. It was something unheard of for

15、an educated young woman to wish to be a nurse. Florence had to give up her wish to train. But she did whatever nursing she could in the villages near her home, and studied hospital reports when she could get them. She travelled abroad with friends, visiting hospitals in many places, and in 1851 she

16、managed to train for 3 months in a hospital.When Florence had refused a most suitable proposed marriage simply because she wanted to be a nurse, her parents learnt that nothing could keep her from her career and they unwillingly accepted the fact. Her formal career thus began.That was in 1853.In 185

17、4, when Britain was having a war with Russia, Florence got a letter from the Secretary of State for War, an old friend of hers. He asked if she would take a party of nurses to the front in Turkey.This letter actually crossed with one from her offering to go.When Florence arrived at the hospital in t

18、he front with about 30 nurses in November 1854, she was shocked by the terrible conditions there:There was almost no supply of medical equipment and basic facility, the environment was frightful, and, worst of all, the doctors had no authority to make the government departments provide what they nee

19、ded.With the supplies and fund she brought with her, and, especially, with the confidence in herself and her career, Florence started to work.The environment and facilities were greatly improved with her management. She worked day and night, nursing the worst cases herself. Soon she won the respect,

20、 love and worship of her patients: they called her“The Lady with the Lamp“, as she made her night rounds with a lamp.Later, Florence travelled through that area organizing hospitals, though too much physical strain and too much work made her desperately ill and her friends urged her to go home. She

21、extended her activities by providing recreation rooms, books, and lecture for the patients, and in time for soldiers who were not ill. Though with great obstacles at the beginning, the general situation became greatly improved.By the time the war finished, she became widely admired.Yet she allowed n

22、o honour. She set out for a new target -the improvement of conditions in the army, For that purpose, she again worked night and day. In 1857, her health became so poor, but after a short rest she was back at work again. In about 4 years, most of her new target was achieved.During the second half of

23、her life Florence Nightingale was always in poor health, often staying in bed for months at a time. She continued to work for many years, nevertheless, until first her eyesight faded, and then her memory. In 1910, she passed away, leaving nursing almost what it is today.(2).Her parents didnt want he

28、 temples were built in Japan, the first pictures were painted, and the first sculptures were made. At that time, all branches of art were already highly developed in China.W: You mean that the Japanese first learnt art from China?M: Not so exactly. The earliest works of art in Japan were mostly done

29、 by Chinese and Korean artists who went to Japan from the 6th century on.W: How long did that last?M: That continued until about the 9th century. For that period, if you want to understand Japanese art, you have to know something of Chinese art first.W: What happened after that?M: In the 10th centur

41、oblem with economy.C. His rivals in the court.D. The confusions of society.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D. 解析：解析 17-20The beginning of the legal system in Great Britain took place in the late 11th century.After the Norman Conquest, William I, the new king from France, was faced with a lot of problems. But the mos

42、t important one is to keep order. On the one hand, the newly conquered English were far from being obedient to the conquerors. Many of them were seeking restoration of truly English ruling. On the other hand, not all of those who fought for William I in the Battle of Hasting were loyal to the new ki

43、ng.What they were seeking was more money and more power. Either of these groups of people might be the potential overthrowers of William Is ruling.However, William was wise enough not only to realize these threats, but to set out to eliminate them. One of the most important and effective ways was to

44、 send the circulars. These were groups of people who were either capable fighters or brilliant judges, headed by a person who was both intelligent and faithful to the king.The functions of these people included the suppression of uprisings and the judgments of conflicts.As these judges were often no

45、t at all familiar with the people involved in the lawsuits, investigations had to be carried out among the local people. And the opinions of the local people were so important for judgment of the cases that this eventually became an indispensable part of the English law.Those who were consulted befo

46、re the court was open were members of the Grand Jury and those who helped make the final decision became members of the Petty Jury.The judges also noticed that people were more satisfied with the judgment of some cases than with others.They took special care to remember these more satisfied ones and

47、 applied them to similar case. That more often than not proved effective.That was the beginning of precedents in the English law.(2).What was the followers of William I most interested in?A.
