When her sisters death caused her to retreat further into herself, he turned to another woman for emotional (not sexual) sup
21、port.At first the wife blamed him totally for the rift. “Id cry and say it was all fault. But there was another part of me saying, It takes two.

The husband thought he could deal

Reading Comprehension (20 points)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Passage 1The AIDS virus is carried in a persons body fluids (体液). The virus can be passed during sex with an
34、 infected partner or by sharing instruments used to take intravenous (静脉注射的) drugs. It can also be passed in blood or fluids made from blood or from a pregnant (怀孕的) woman with AIDS to her developing baby.Many stories about the spread of AIDS are false.
