Ⅰ.阅读理解

• 1．Sometimes when we are in our darkest hour something completely unexpected happens that can give us a little bit of hope and comfort.
     Jessica was a healthy woman.One day，she woke up and something was not right.After she was sent to the hospital，her heart rate slowed by nearly 50 percent.It took nine days for doctors to zero in on what was causing her problem.
     After several weeks，Jessica was able to move her lips.The staff noticed this and introduced Jessica to Consuelo González，a professional lip reader.Consuelo can understand what people are saying by the shape their lips make.She can also understand how annoying it is not to be able to communicate because she has been completely deaf since the age of 8.
     For a few hours each week，Jessica could have long conversations with Consuelo，diving into the ocean of words she dearly missed.Through Consuelo，Jessica asked the doctors and nurses questions she had long wanted answers to.She also talked to Consuelo about the vivid dreams she was mixing up with reality.
     In fact，there are other ways for Consuelo to earn a living by reading lips，but she says helping patients separate horrible dreams from reality is the most rewarding way she can use her unique skill."What is really wonderful is being able to use this skill to create healing and to create communication between human beings.That's what makes me feel good.That's what's the best：Love."
     After four and a half months in the hospital，Jessica finally recovered.Consuelo was there，holding Jessica's hands.Jessica eventually went back to work as a math professor.After her experience she wrote a new living will.One thing she added is that if she ever becomes incapacitated like this again，she is never to be left alone.
