That afternoon my friend Kevin and I talked   2  about the play. Although Kevin hadn’t been   3   for a role on the stage, his job with helping all the actors was important to the success of the play. I told him I was a little __4  because I had a lot of lines(台词)to memorize. “You can do it.” he said. I knew I could   5  on him: we had been friends since the third grade, and we made a good team.
Preparations for the play moved at a rapid pace. While doing his own work, Kevin also spent hours helping me learn my lines. He often said my lines with me by silently moving his lips. We   6  that he could probably play my part as well as I could.
Three days before the    7  night, everything was ready for the performance. But when I woke up with a high fever on the day of the play, the whole production came to a sudden   __8 . Everyone in the drama department was worried,   9  there was no way I could perform. The play was   10  to open in fewer than six hours, and we had no time to cancel. I tried to think of a way to help. Then it hit me---Kevin knew the   11  as well as I did. I called Mrs. Dermit to give her my   12 . Within a few short hours, Kevin stood on the stage in costume(戏服) and makeup. The amusing lines he had   13  with me so many times made the crowd laugh and cheer. In a strange turn of events, Kevin and I had   14  the day for everyone by working as a team.
Of course, I was terribly disappointed to have missed my chance in the spotlight, but I was extremely   15  to have such a good friend.

My father was raised in a fatherless home at a time when the family of five struggled to survive, which caused my father to be extremely tightfisted(吝啬) with money.

When we children became 16 that other children got pocket money from their parents, we made a(n) 17 to ask our father from some. Immediately his face turned stone-cold, and he said, “If you’re old enough to ask, you’re old enough to 18 .” And we had to seek odd jobs about the neighborhood.

He didn’t 19 his attitude as we grew into adulthood. There was a time when 20 of us had a car, so we had to ride a 21 whenever we came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met us, 22 in bad weather. If someone 23 (and my brothers did a lot), he’d say in his 24 father-voice. “That’s what your legs are 25 !”

One spring morning I was on the bus home from 26 . Tests and long hours in labs had 27 me exhausted. As other students were 28 at their stops. I looked silently out of the window. Finally, the bus came to a 29 at my destination, and I 30 , carrying my suitcase to begin the long journey home.

The row of privet hedge(树篱) came into 31 , which lined the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. I stopped to put a book in the suitcase. When I stood up, I saw something gray 32 along the top of the hedge toward the house.

It was the top of my father’s head. I 33 then, each time I came home, he would stand behind the hedge, watching, 34 he knew I had arrived safely. I held back my tears. He did care, 35 .

Upon reaching home, I found my father innocently in his chair. “So! It’s you!” he said, his face lengthening into surprise.

We’d been flying for hours, deeper and deeper into the desert of southeastern Niger. The mission: to find what is probably the last wild population of the great Saharan antelope called the addax (旋角羚)—the most endangered animal of its size in Africa.

Pilot Peter Ragg flew our bright red helicopter low over two parallel dunes (沙丘). The pale sand below us was dotted by the black bushes, the plants that are favorite food for the addax. Then, almost as if the dune extruded (使突出) them, two perfect addaxes appeared. Their long tails swung from side to side as they ran, heads held high on thick necks, horns reaching for the sky. We made a few turns in the plane, then let them be. In just a few seconds they were swallowed again by the Sahara. Soon they could just as easily disappear from the planet.

In September 2004 the government of Niger and a small NGO called SOS Faune du Niger surveyed this last known pocket of wild addaxes. They counted 128 individuals. Since then, the number has dropped as hunters have taken more for meat. How many addaxes remain in the Sahara is anybody’s guess, but those that do survive could be considered the living dead: There may not be a viable (能生存的) population left to reproduce.

I’m now helping to make an emergency plan for the last wild addaxes. With a few hundred thousand dollars, some trucks, and a strong group with the local Toubou guides, we may just be able to save these guys from extinction.

36. What do the addaxes in the passage usually eat?

A. Vegetables. B. Black bushes. C. Grass. D. Fruits.

37. All of the following descriptions of the addax are true EXCEPT that ____.

A. its tail is long B. its neck is thick

C. its legs are short D. its horns are long

38. What does the writer probably mean by saying that “There may not be a viable population left to reproduce”?

A. Wild addaxes will die out soon unless effective measures are taken.

B. The number of wild addaxes will increase if they are not hunted.

C. Wild addaxes cannot support themselves any longer.

D. Humans cannot survive without enough addaxes.

39. It can be inferred that the writer of the passage might be ____.

A. a journalist B. an official C. an engineer D. a zoologist
