Amy Pankratz spent a few nights in the hospital with her daughter, Isabella, who caught a bad flu. “Lying in bed beside Isabella, I could hear the cries of children in pain, ”says Amy. “It completely broke my heart. ” When Isabella was getting well and could leave her room, she wore her prized possession—a “superhero cape(短斗篷)”Amy had sewn to encourage her—and walked into the hallway. The pink cape was an instant hit with the other young patients, who were doing exercise around the nursing station. “Then, all the kids were taking turns wearing the cape, giggling, ”Amy says. “These were some of the same children I had heard crying the night before, and here they were playing and having fun—kids just being kids! ” From that moment on, Amy began making Comfort Capes for little ones battling with serious illnesses. “I felt God presenting an opportunity, ”she says. “I hoped Comfort Capes can help these kids feel brave, to lift some of the fear away. ” Since then, Amy has made and donated more than 5, 000 capes in the United States. Amy usually pays for materials herself, although she accepts donations. The capes she makes for kids in treatment are different from those her own children have. Before Amy starts to sew she learns what image or character the little boy or girl connects with. “ I choose the pattern, color and theme specially for each child,” explains Amy. When she is not sewing, Amy is raising awareness of childhood cancers and looking into ways to get Comfort Capes to more kids who need them, “ If a cape can help a child, even only for a moment, forget his illness, it’s worth the time spent sewing,” she says. 21.What made Amy feel sad when she was staying with her daughter in the hospital? A. Her daughter’s serious illness. B. The cries of children in pain. C. The tiredness from sewing the cape. D. The illness of children in her daughter’s room. 22.What purpose did Amy have when she began making Comfort Capes for sick children? A.To make them feel warm. B.To find friends for her daughter.

Surprisingly，no one knows how many children receive education in English hospitals，still less the content or quality of that education.Proper records are just not kept.We know that more than 850,000 children go through hospital each year，and that every child of school age has a legal right to continue to receive education while in hospital.We also know there is only one hospital teacher to every 1,000 children in hospital. Little wonder the latest survey concludes that the extent and type of hospital teaching available differ a great deal across the country.It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher.A further quarter have only a parttime teacher.The special children’s hospitals in major cities do best；general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off.From this survey，one can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher—and that contact may be as little as two hours a day.Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all.They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school.If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do math or number work；without a teacher they would only play games. Reasons for hospital teaching range from preventing a child falling behind and maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child occupied，and the latter is of ten all the teacher can do.The position and influence of many teachers was summed up when parents referred to them as “the library lady” or just “the helper”．Children tend to rely on concerned school friends to keep in touch with school work.Several parents spoke of requests for work being ignored or refused by the school.Once back at school children rarely get extra teaching，and are told to catch up as best as they can. Many shortstay childpatients catch up quickly.But schools do very little to ease the anxiety about falling behind expressed by many of the children interviewed. 29. The author points out at the beginning that________. A．every child in hospital receives some teaching B．not enough is known about hospital teaching C．hospital teaching is of poor quality D．the special children’s hospitals are worst off 30. It can be inferred from the latest survey that________. A．hospital teaching across the country is similar B．each hospital has at least one parttime teacher C．all hospitals surveyed offer education to children D．only onefourth of the hospitals have fulltime teachers 31. Children in hospital usually turn to________in order to catch up with their school work. A．hospital teachers B．schoolmates C．parents D．school teachers 32. We can conclude from the passage that the author is________. A．unfavorable towards children receiving education in hospitals B．in favor of the present state of teaching in hospitals C．unsatisfied with the present state of hospital teaching D．satisfied with the results of the latest survey
