Robert Kohout, 39, was working outside his home last October when he heard a frightening n
oise. He turned round and saw Walter Graham’s car sinking into 8 feet of water of the swimming pool a little distance away from his yard.

Kohout immediately called to Graham’s wife, Evelyn, to telephone 911. Then he ran back to his house to get Terence Reif and Glenn Fajardo to help,who were at work inside the house. “There was no time for second thoughts,” said Reif,a farmer’ s son. “The only thing to do was to get in the pool.”

The car doors were locked. Graham,73, was unconscious (失去知觉),and his Mercury was rapidly filling with water. Reif struggled to break the driver’ s side window with a hammer but had trouble getting it done underwater.

Finally—some four minutes after the car had fallen into the pool—the glass was broken. By then,Graham was floating at the top of the flooded passenger compartment (车厢).

The three men pulled Graham out through the broken glass. He wasn’ t breathing and his heart stopped beating,so they performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. The rescue(急救)team arrived in no time. Doctors supplied him with advanced life support on the way to the hospital.

“ These people were getting to Graham through the glass,’’ said Dr. Jeff Messinger. “ All three acted without regard for their own safety. ’’Added Evelyn Graham,“They were truly angels(天使)watching over us.” Immediately after Robert found the car sinking into the pool, he ____.

A.jumped into the pool

B.shouted to let Evelyn call the rescue team

C.ran to the nearest telephone

D.rushed into Graham’s house to find his wife

What does the word “resuscitation” refer to in the story?A.A way of saving people who have stopped breathing

B.A way of helping people who have heart trouble

C.A way of saving people who have got drunk

D.A way of helping people who need water

Which of the following would be the best title for this story?A.The Underwater Gar.

B.Angels around Us.

C.Rescue Team in Time

D.Safety First.

England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about t
hree hundred miles across. (76) But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate. People who have never visited England, or who have visited only one part of it, often make the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands. In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire from a job in the north they often prefer to move down to the milder south.

Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of the counties of Devon and Cornwall. The warm Gulf Stream flows across the North Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of Mexico and makes the coastal regions of the southwest quite warm. Palm trees, bamboo (竹) and many semi-tropical (亚热带的) plants grow well in the southwest of England.Flowers and vegetables ripen(成熟) as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the area obtain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. (77) In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England's most popular holiday areas.

The distance from the center of England to the south coast is about ________.

A.one hundred miles

B.three hundred miles

C.one hundred and fifty miles

D.six hundred miles

Washington Irving was America' s first man of letters to be known internationally. His wor
ks were received enthusiastically both in England and in the United States. He was, in fact, one of the most successful writers of his time in the country, and at the same time winning the admiration of fellow writers like Scott in Britain and Poe and Hawthorne in the United States. (76) The respect in which he was held partly owing to the man himself, with his warm friendliness, his good sense, his urbanity, his gay spirits, his artistic integrity, his love of both the Old World and the New. Thackeray described Irving as "a gentleman, who, though himself born in no very high sphere, was most finished, polished, witty; socially the equal of the most refined Europeans." (77) England he was granted an honorary degree from Oxford—an unusual honor for a citizen of a young, uncultured nation—and he received the medal of the Royal Society of Literature. America made him ambassador to Spain.

Irving's background provides little to explain his literary achievements. A gifted but delicate child, he had little schooling. He studied law, but without zeal, and never did practice seriously. He was immune to his strict Presbyterian home environment, frequenting both social gatherings and the theater.

The main point of the first paragraph is that Washington Irving was ______

A.America' s first man of letters

B.a writer who had great success both in and outside his own country

C.a man who was able to move from literature to politics

D.a man whose personal charm enabled him to get by with basically inferior work

"Fingers were made before forks" when a person gives up good manners, puts aside knife and
fork, and dives into his food, someone is likely to repeat that saying.

The fork was an ancient agricultural tool, but for centuries no one thought of eating with it. Not until the eleventh century, when a young lady from Constantinpole brought her fork to Italy, did the custom reach Europe.

By the fifteenth century the use of the fork was widespread in Italy. The English explanation was that Italians were averse to rating food touched with fingers, "Seeing all men's fingers are not alike clean." English travelers kept their friends in stitches while describing this ridiculous Italian custom.

Anyone who used a fork to eat with was laughed at in England for the next hundred years. Men who used forks were thought to be sissies, and women who used them were called show - offs and overnice. Not until the late 1600's did using a fork become a common custom.

The custom of eating with a fork was ______ .

A.brought to Europe from America

B.begun when forks were invented

C.brought to Europe from Asia

D.invented by Italians

When a student, I was a member of the collegiate basketball team. It was mainly composed o
f bookish students. Only one could be counted as natural athlete, another half-qualified. That's why we were defeated nine out of ten games. Our spirits, however, had never dampened, for we were a cheerful team. None would strive to get into the spotlight when we were gaining the upper hand; nor would we blame each other when we were losing. Thus a cordial relationship between members prevailed in our team. Most recommendable of all was our morale which never lowered. Our sportsmanship also remained good. We persisted in carrying on to the last when suffering great loss. We knew we had done our best, showing no regret at failure. To the rest of the students our team was a good one though it lost the game. They kept encouraging us and none of them was disappointed.

Recently I have avoided watching games, not even at a TV live coverage, still less to the match in person. That's because I know I couldn't control myself. When watching a match, I'll inevitably take sides and be emotionally involved, strongly wishing for the triumph of the side over its opponent. As I often side with the "weaker" in a match, watching it will only spell worry and misery for me.

Not long ago when I accompanied my wife to a super world tennis match my horizons broadened as regards sports competition. It seemed to me that wins and losses were relative and transient. What mattered was the ever-higher level achieved through contest. Victory was a result of all the efforts made by both sides. As one of the audience, I should applaud the energetic performance of both to the neglect of the result. Why should I regard the contest as a life-and-death struggle, the winner as survival and the loser as dead?

The basketball team was often defeated because ______.

A.the team members didn't know how to play basketball

B.the team members were students who only know how to study book knowledge

C.there were only one or two members who were qualified for basketball

D.the morale of the team was low

根据下列文章,回答36~40题。The most thoroughly studied intellectuals in the history of the N
ew World are the ministers and political leaders of seventeenthcentury New England. According to the standard history of American philosophy, nowhere else in colonial America was “so much important attached to intellectual pursuits.” According to many books and articles, New England’s leaders established the basic themes and preoccupations of an unfolding, dominant Puritan tradition in American intellectual life.

To take this approach to the New Englanders normally mean to start with the Puritans’ theological innovations and their distinctive ideas about the church—important subjects that we may not neglect. But in keeping with our examination of southern intellectual life, we may consider the original Puritans as carriers of European culture adjusting to New World circumstances. The New England colonies were the scenes of important episodes in the pursuit of widely understood ideals of civility and virtuosity.

The early settlers of Massachusetts Bay included men of impressive education and influence in England. Besides the ninety or so learned ministers who came to Massachusetts church in the decade after 1629, there were political leaders like John Winthrop, an educated gentleman, lawyer, and official of the Crown before he journeyed to Boston. There men wrote and published extensively, reaching both New World and Old World audiences, and giving New England an atmosphere of intellectual earnestness.

We should not forget, however, that most New Englanders were less well educated. While few craftsmen or farmers, let alone dependents and servants, left literary compositions to be analyzed, it is obvious that their views were less fully intellectualized. Their thinking often had a traditional superstitions quality. A tailor named John Dane, who emigrated in the late 1630s, left an account of his reasons for leaving England that is filled with signs. Sexual confusion, economic frustrations , and religious hope—all name together in a decisive moment when he opened the Bible, told his father the first line he saw would settle his fate, and read the magical words: “come out from among them, touch no unclean thing , and I will be your God and you shall be my people.” One wonders what Dane thought of the careful sermons explaining the Bible that he heard in puritan churches.

Meanwhile , many settlers had slighter religious commitments than Dane’s, as one clergyman learned in confronting folk along the coast who mocked that they had not come to the New world for religion . “Our main end was to catch fish. ”

第36题:The author holds that in the seventeenthcentury New England

A.Puritan tradition dominated political life.

B.intellectual interests were encouraged.

C.politics benefited much from intellectual endeavors.

D.intellectual pursuits enjoyed a liberal environment.
