【题目】Walter Cavanagh has nearly 1,500 valid credit cards to his name and holds the Guinness record for the most credit cards.

Mr. Plastic Fantastic — a title given to him by Guinness World Records — is also the proud owner of the world’s longest wallet, which can hold about 800 cards. But he uses it only to carry a few cards, while the rest are safely kept in bank safe-deposit boxes.

Cavanagh started collecting credit cards in the late 1960s. “One of my best friends and I made a silly bet(打赌); the guy who could collect the most credit cards by the end of the year would win dinner,” he said. “I got 143 cards by the end of the year, and my friend collected 138.”

After winning that bet, Cavanagh decided to simply keep going with his unusual collection. He got credit cards from gas stations, airlines, bars, and even ice cream stores — all with kinds of limits, some as low as $50.

If there’s one card missing from Cavanagh’s collection, it’s that from the Newberry Group. They refused to give him a card in the early 1970s, even though he’d collected over 100 by then. They said he had too much credit. Therefore, so far he hasn’t had a Newberry card in his collection.

Cavanagh hasn’t stopped applying for new cards — he’s held the Guinness record since 1971 and has no intention of letting go of it. He copies whole pages from a U.S. directory(名录)of businesses and keeps sending applications. If he is refused, he writes back to the company explaining his goal. But he doesn’t count useless cards in his total collection.

Thanks to all the cards to his name, Cavanagh has access to about $1.7 million at any moment. Despite this privilege(特权), he has managed to achieve an excellent credit score.

The retired financial planner and credit expert has only one piece of advice to share: “Never use a card to buy anything you can’t pay off in a couple of months. If you don’t have the discipline, you shouldn’t have the cards.”

1When did Cavanagh begin to collect credit cards?

A. When he made a bet with his friend.

B. When he wanted to create a Guinness record.

C. When he owned a very long wallet.

D. When he was treated to dinner by his friend.

2Why hasn’t Cavanagh collected a Newberry card?

A. His given card got lost.

B. He wasn’t allowed to collect one.

C. His application was refused.

D. It isn’t worth collecting anyway.

3What does Cavanagh usually do when his application is refused?

A. He visits the company himself.

B. He tells the company his goal.

C. He chooses to let go of it.

D. He sends another application at once.

4What suggestion does Cavanagh give us in the last paragraph?

A. Never apply for a credit card.

B. Have the power to control ourselves.

C. Use credit cards as often as possible.

D. Collect more credit cards to show off.

Cruz Genet, 11, and Anthony Skopick, 10, couldn’t agree. Were the birds out on the ice ducks or geese? There was only one way to find out.

First they cast a rock onto the ice to test it, then they stepped on it.2(convince) the ice would hold their weight, Anthony took a few steps, then … FOOMP. He crashed through the seemingly frozen surface. There was no sound, he just fell instantly.

Cruz rushed to help his terrified friend. FOOMP -- the pond swallowed him too. Cruz managed to lift

3out of the frozen water and onto a more solid section. He then cautiously worked his way toward Anthony. But the ice 4(not hold), and he fell in again. This time, he couldn’t get out. The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling in their limbs. There was not much chance 5they could free themselves from the trouble. Cruz was sure he was going to die.

Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys 6(fall) into the pond and started creaming for help. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby on his way to the grocery store, heard her. He quickly pulled over. Seeing the boys, he grabbed a nearby buoy(浮标)kicked off his shoes, and ran into the water,7(chop) his way through the ice with his free fist.

Fortunately, the boys have fully recovered,10they are still a little awestruck(惊叹的)by their fearless neighbor. “Just to think,” says Cruz, “If he hadn’t been there, I would have died.”
