【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.

He seems an unlikely hero, especially one that would save a kid from the jaws of a wild cougar (美洲豹) .

Shen Huigang is just now getting recognition for his bravery in fighting off a cougar on Vancouver Island, Canada, during a family outing on Aug .30.

Shen, also known as Ian, was then an exchange student at Kwantlen Polytechnic University enjoying the afternoon on a beach near Ucluelet, a small town on the edge of the Pacific Ocean.

With him was a friend, Myles Hagar, and Hagar’s two grandchildren.

Silently and suddenly a cougar appeared out of nowhere.

By the time the two adults spotted the cat, believed to be young but still weighing 30 to 35 kilograms, it already had the head of 18-month old Julien in its mouth. Instinctively本能地, the young man gestured as if he were ready for a fight, and tried to scare the beast off with the bag in his hands.

On hearing the noise Shen made, the animal dropped the kid and Hagar grabbed his grandson from the cougar’s jaws. Shen and Hagar gradually chased the animal back into the woods.

“We also moved slowly to our vehicle, as we waved our fists and bags, pretending we wanted to fight with it,” Shen said. “The vehicle wasn’t far away but it felt like it took us a century to travel the short journey.”

“Any hesitation, at anymoment, even a second delay, would have resulted in certain death for Julien. The cougar was just about to break his neck and carry him away to be eaten in the forest.” Hagar said. Julien has since made a full recovery.

Parks Canada spokeswoman Arlene Armstrong told the National Post newspaper of Canada in an interview in August. “The two men acted properly by maintaining eye contact with the big cat and aggressively scaring it off.”

【题目】Neil Armstrong tookone small step for manwhen he stepped on the moons surface while worldfamous physicist Stephen Hawking took a giant leap (跳跃)”for Earth’s physically disabled when he experienced eight rounds of weightlessness in what he saw as the first step in a personal goal to travel in space.

It was amazing,Hawking told reporters afterwards,using his wellknown computerized voice.The zeroG part was wonderful,and the highG part was no problem.I could have gone on and on.I have long wanted to go into space,and the zerogravity flight is the first step towards space travel.

Hawking is one of the bestknown scientists because of his bestselling works on the mysteries of black holes and the origins of the universe,and because of his increasing disability.He is almost completely paralyzed (瘫痪的) and can communicate only via facial gestures and a gesturecontrolled computer system.

Thursadys flight was a test run to find out if Hawking is capable of a rocketpowered journey to the edge of outer space,perhaps aboard the spaceship now being developed for Virgin Galactic.That craft is due to enter service in 2009 or so,and taking such a flight would check off what Hawking has said is hisnext stepHe would have flown more if we let himsaid Noah McMahon,one of Hawkings coaches.He was all smiles all the time.

Zero Gravity had originally planned to bring Hawking back to NASAs Shuttle Landing Facility here after six upsanddowns.Hwkings performance showed well for more tests.Zero Gravity Corp.cofounder Peter Diamandis said Hawking experienced the flight better than his physicians had expected.He noted that the four minutes Hawking spent in weightlessness was about as much time as he would spend in zeroG during a space flight.

【2】The underlined wordzeroGin Paragraph 2 probably refers to __________.

D.the first step

【3】Which of the following would the writer probably agree?

A.Hawking was one of the workers in Zero Gravity Company.

B.McMahon was not satisfied with what Hawking did in this test.

C.Peter Diamandis bought a spaceship for Hawking to travel in space.

D.Hawking would spend in zeroG during a space flight for 4 minutes.

B.a spaceship will be sent into space before long

C.what Neil Armstrong had experienced in space

D.common people can also experience space flights

【题目】As Amy Hagadorn rounded the corner across the hall from her classroom, she crashed with a tall boy from the fifth grade running in the opposite direction.

“Watch it, Squirt,” the boy yelled, as he dodged around the little third grader. Then, with an unfriendly smile on his face, the boy took hold of his right leg and mimicked the way Amy limped(跛行)when she walked.

Amy closed her eyes for a moment. ―Ignore him, she told herself as she headed for her classroom.

But at the end of the day, Amy was still thinking about the tall boys mean teasing. It wasnt as if he were the only one. Amy was tired of it. Sometimes, even in a classroom full of other students, the teasing about her speech or her limping made her feel all alone.

Back home at the dinner table that evening Amy was quiet. Thats why Patti Hagdorn was happy to have some exciting news to share with her daughter.

“Theres a Christmas Wish Contest on the radio station,” she announced. “Write a letter to Santa and you might win a prize. I think someone at this table with blond curly hair should enter.

Amy giggled. The contest sounded like fun. She started thinking about what she wanted most for Christmas.

A smile took hold of Amy when the idea first came to her. Out came pencil and paper and Amy went to work on her letter. ―Dear Santa Claus, she began.

While Amy worked away at her best printing, the rest of the family tried to guess what she might ask from Santa. Amys sister, Jamie, and Amys mom both thought a 3-foot Barbie Doll would top Amys wish list. Amys dad guessed a picture book. But Amy wasnt ready to reveal her secret Christmas wish just then. Here is Amys letter to Santa, just as she wrote it that night:

Dear Santa Clause,

My name is Amy. I am 9 years old. I have a problem at school. Can you help me, Santa? Kids laugh at me because of the way I walk and run and talk. I have cerebral palsy(大脑性瘫痪). I just want one day where no one laughs at me or makes fun of me.

Love,

Amy

At radio station WJLT in Fort Wayne, Indiana, letters poured in for the Christmas Wish Contest. The workers had fun reading about all the different presents that boys and girls from across the city wanted for Christmas.

When Amys letter arrived at the radio station, manager Lee Tobin read it carefully. He knew cerebral palsy was a muscle disorder that might confuse the schoolmates of Amy who didnt understand her disability. He thought it would be good for the people in Fort Wayne to hear about this special third grader and her unusual wish. Mr. Tobin called up the local newspaper.

The next day, a picture of Amy and her letter to Santa made the front page of the News Sentinel. The story spread quickly. All across the country, newspapers and radio and television station reported the story of the little girl in Fort Wayne, Indiana, who asked for such a simple, yet remarkable Christmas gift just one day without teasing.

Suddenly the postman was a regular at the Hagadorn house. Envelopes of all sizes addressed to Amy arrived daily from children and adults all across the nation. They came filled with holiday greetings and words of encouragement.

During that unforgettable Christmas season, over two thousand people from all over the world sent Amy letters of friendship and support. Amy and her family read every single one. Some of the writers had disabilities; some had been teased as children. Many people thanked Amy for being brave enough to speak up. Others encouraged her to ignore teasing and to carry her head high. Each writer had a special message for Amy. Through the cards and letters from strangers, Amy glimpsed a world full of people who truly cared about each other. She realized that no amount or form of teasing could ever make her feel lonely again.

Amy did get her wish of a special day without teasing at South Wayne Elementary School. Additionally, everyone at school got an added bonus. Teachers and students talked together about how bad teasing can make others feel.

That year, the Fort Wayne mayor officially proclaimed December 21st as Amy Jo Hagadorn Day throughout the city. The mayor explained that by daring to make such a simple wish, Amy taught a universal lesson.

“Everyone,” said the mayor, “wants and deserves to be treated with respect, dignity and warmth.”
