D
A long time ago, there lived a skillful scientist whose name was Aylmer. He had so totally given himself to scientific studies that he could not be weakened by a second love. His love for his young wife could only be the stronger of the two if it could link itself with his love of science.
One day, Aylmer looked at his wife with a troubled expression.
"Georgiana," he said, "have you ever considered that the mark upon your cheek might be removed"?
"No," she said smiling. But seeing the seriousness of his question, she said, "The mark has so often been called a charm that I was simple enough to imagine it might be so."
"On another face it might," answered her husband, "but not on yours. Nature made you so perfectly that this small defect shocks me as being a sign of earthly imperfection."
"Shocks you!" cried Georgiana, deeply hurt.
We must explain that in the center of Georgiana's left cheek there was a mark, deep in her skin. The mark was shaped like a very small human hand.
Had Georgiana been less beautiful, he might have felt his love increased by the prettiness of that little hand. But because she was otherwise so perfect, he found the mark had become unbearable. "Aylmer," said Georgiana, "I do not know what the cost would be to both of us to remove this birthmark. Removing it could deform my face or damage my health."
"Dearest Georgiana, I have spent much thought on the subject," said Aylmer. "I am sure it can be removed."
"Then let the attempt be made at any risk," said Georgiana. "Life is not worth living while this hateful mark makes me the object of your horror. Remove this little mark for the sake of your peace and my own."
"Dearest wife," cried Aylmer. "Do not doubt my power. I am ready to make this cheek as perfect as its pair."
The next day the couple went to Aylmer's laboratory where he had made all his famous discoveries. He led her to her room where she waited. Hours later, Aylmer returned carrying a crystal glass with a colorless liquid. Georgiana drank the liquid and immediately fell asleep.
Aylmer sat next to his wife, observing her and taking notes. He noted everything -- her breathing, the movement of an eyelid. He stared at the birthmark. And slowly, with every breath that came and went, it lost some of its brightness. "
" By Heaven! It is nearly gone," said Aylmer. "Success! Success!"
He opened the window coverings to see her face in daylight. She was so pale. Georgiana opened her eyes and looked into the mirror her husband held. She tried to smile as she saw the hardly observable mark.
"My poor Aylmer," she said gently. "You have rejected the best the Earth could offer. I am dying, dearest."
It was true. The hand on her face had been her link to life. As the last trace of color disappeared from her cheek, she gave her last breath.
68. The first paragraph tells us that __________________.
A. Aylmer’s passion for science is increasing.
B. Aylmer doesn’t love his wife at all.
C. Aylmer loves science more than anything.
D. His wife’s charm of to Aylmer is stronger than science.
69. From what Georgiana says, how does she feel about the situation during the passage?
A. Heartbroken B. Delighted C. Hopeful D. Optimistic
70. The underlined part “the best the earth could offer” in the passage refer to “_____” .
A. Georgiana’s face B. Georgiana herself C. the birthmark D. science
We can conclude from the passage that _____________.
A. we may lose something more important when blinded by a meaningless imperfection,.
B. science isn’t worth too much devotion, so we should throw it away.
C. a skillful scientist can overcome any difficulty, only if he sticks to his love for science.
