17.Once an Englishman named Jack Brown went to Russia for a holiday.He stayed there for several months and then came home again.Some of his friends visited him a few days after he got back."I had a very dangerous trip while I was in Russia,"Jack said to them."I wanted to see a friend of mine in the country and the bad weather made me very late.So I was still traveling through a forest in a sleigh(雪橇) when the sun went down.It was a long way from my friend's house when about twenty wolves began to follow my sleigh.It was very dark in the forest.There was thick snow on the ground.It was cold,and there were no houses for miles and miles.First I heard the wolves.The noise was terrible!The horses heard them,too.They were frightened and began running faster.Then I saw long,gray forms among the trees,and soon the wolves were near us.They were running very fast,and they didn't seem to get tired like the horses."
"What did you do?"one of Jack's friends asked.
"When the wolves got very near,"Jack answered,"I put up my gun and shot the first wolf.The sleigh was moving about,but I hit the animal and killed it.Then all the other wolves stopped and ate it,so our sleigh got away from them for a few minutes."
"Then they finished their meal,and I heard them coming again.The moon was shining brightly on the snow now,and after a few minutes I saw them running among the trees once more.They came nearer again,and then I shot another of them,and the others stopped once more to eat it."
"The same thing happened again and again,and my horses became more and more tired and ran slower and slower until,after about two hours,only one wolf was still alive and following us."
"Wasn't it too fat to run?"one of his friends asked.

4.In March 1987,I started a new magazine called Creating Excellence.It was a very proud moment for me.I'd worked hard for over a year to create it,and the premiere issue (首次发刊) was a real success.
Shortly after we had mailed 25,000copies,I received one in the mail.But this one wasn't as beautiful as the ones we'd sent out.It was marked in red ink correcting the grammatical errors (语法错误) in it.A talented editor had read it carefully and found more errors than I could have imagined.
I felt abashed.A magazine called Creating Excellence should be perfect in its content (内容).The stories were good,but the errors this woman had found showed that our magazine was far from being excellent.
At first,I was not satisfied with my editor for not having avoided the mistakes,and dissatisfied with the woman who seemed to have taken pleasure in pointing them out.Later,I was dissatisfied with myself for not having employed a better editor.
Then I realized that I had to face up to my mistake.I called the talented editor.I thanked her for taking the time to read our magazine so carefully.Painful as it was,I accepted responsibility for it.
Then I offered her the job of editing our magazine.The result was a great improvement in it; we could now be very proud of our magazine.
From this I learnt that an upsetting moment can be an opportunity to see the truth,and it can help to prevent one making the same mistakes,and to make"excellence"a reality.

29.What does the underlined word"abashed"in the third paragraph mean?B
A.Excited.
B.Embarrassed.

30.What do we learn about the woman who found the errors in the magazine?D
A.She was causing trouble on purpose.
B.She liked pointing out the errors of others.
C.She contributed a lot to the success of the premiere issue.
D.She ended up joining the magazine team.
31.What do we learn from this passage?D
A.Pride is the biggest enemy of success.
B.Success is behind many failures.
C.Pointing out others'mistakes can help you find a job.
D.Accepting responsibility for one's errors can lead to real excellence.

Finally,Anna went home from the hospital,just as her mother had (58)C.Today,five years later,Anna is a little but lively young girl with bright gray eyes(59)B a strong interest for life.She shows no (60)C of any mental or physical injuries.Simply,she is everything a little girl can be.
