An 18-year-old high school student who had just learned to swim in the last summer vacation saved the life of a drowning Ohio boy on Friday afternoon.
Tom Erickson was credited with (因......而受赞扬)saving the life of Jason Pryor,10, in Mill Creek (小河) Park. Young Jason Pryor, from Chillicothe, was visiting relatives from Anchor Point when he fell into Mill Creek.
The Pryor boy had no business playing near the edge of the river, but he had no idea of the danger.
The creek, with much more water than usual for the recent spring rains, flowed fast and carried the boy around a bend and out of sight from his parents, who took Jason out there and said they had not even witnessed the incident.
Luckily for Jason, one of the most unselfish students from Brentwood’s Central High School was taking a walk alone through the park.
As soon as he found the boy struggling in the water, Erickson jumped into the creek and managed to pull the drowning boy out of the water. And it was reported that Erickson had never received any life-saving instruction before.
“I wasn’t sure I could do it,” Erickson said. “I didn’t know if I could swim through the river by myself, not to mention getting another person out with me.”
This incident should be a lesson to young children who do not know how to swim. Stay away from dangerous bodies of water.
小题1:   Young Jason Pryor lives at _______.
A.Anchor PointB.Chillicothe, OhioC.Mill CreekD.Brentwood
小题2:Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?
A.Life-saving instruction helped a lot in the incident.
B.Jason’s parents saw him fall into the creek but couldn’t help.
C.The creek flowed fast because it was very straight without any bends.
D.Erickson was not sure if he could save the boy when jumping into the creek.
小题3:What’s the possible meaning of the underlined sentence “The Pryor boy had no business playing near the edge of the river,” in the third paragraph?
A.The accident was none of the boy’s business.
B.The boy had no friends to play with him.
C.The boy shouldn’t have played near the creek.
D.The boy was very busy and had no time to play.
小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Did You Know the Danger of WaterB.Be Responsible Parents
C.The Fast Running Mill CreekD.Beginning Swimmer Saved Drowning Boy

When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”, my brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, and then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.
One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up(咬破) one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl.” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.
Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is that she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.
Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us.
小题1: What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?
A.Look at them sadly.B.Keep them company.
C.Play games with them.D.Touch them gently.
小题2: We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie ____.
A.would eat anything when hungryB.felt sorry for her mistake
C.loved playing hide-and-seekD.disliked the author’s dad
小题3:Why does the author say that Brownie was more than just a family pet?
A.She was treated as a member of the family.
B.She played games with anyone she liked.
C.She was loved by everybody she met.
D.She went everywhere with the family.
小题4: Some people got frightened by Brownie when she ____.
A.smiledB.barked
C.rushed to themD.tried to be funny
小题5: Which of the following best describes Brownie?
A.Shy.B.Polite.C.Brave.D.Caring.

阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从下列各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
Many people of my generation(代,一代) say that there is no hope for the future because of the way that 11  people behave today.
Their first argument(论点) is that when we were young we used to look after the  12  people in our community and help them. They also say that young people today don’t  13  about anything or anyone. However, I think the reason why we looked after older people was that we had no 14  . People had to live with their  15  and grandparents because they had no money. Young people today earn more and have more  16   to live where they want.
Their second argument is that in our day we didn’t expect (盼望,期待)to be given jobs -----and that young people now don’t look for jobs, but just complain(抱怨) about  17   . On the other hand, things were easier in the past and it was always easy to get a job if you had friends and contacts(关系). It is really   18 today.
In conclusion I think there is hope for the  19  . This generation, like generations before them, has new  20  as well as old problems. If they learn from our mistakes the world will be a better place in future.

In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(动画片) film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice, he said “Stop! That’s our duck!”
The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight – minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s  eight nephews(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like Mickey.
In the 1930S, 40s and 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.
Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today’s children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.
41. Who made Donald Duck film? ______
A. Mickey Mouse.                 B. Clarence Nash.
C. Walt Disney.                   D. Pluto.
42. When was the first Donald Duck film made? ______
A. In 1933.         B. In 1934.        C. In 1966.        D. In 1930.
43. Who was Clarence Nash? ______
A. A cartoonist.                    B. Donald Duck’s voice.
C. A film-maker.                    D. A film star.
44. Where do today’s children see Donald Duck ? ______
A. In new film.                  B. At the cinema.
C. On television.                D. At concerts.
