15.For their nick-of-time acts,Toby,a 2-year-old dog,and Winnie,a cute cat,were named Dog and Cat of the Year by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
As Amy Paul choked(哽住) on a piece of apple at her home,her dog jumped up,landing hard on her chest and forcing the piece in her throat out.When the Keesling family of Indiana was about to be killed by carbon monoxide,their cat clawed at the wife Cathy's hair until she woke up and called for help.
No one could explain their timely heroics.
Both pets were rescued by their owners in infancy-----Toby as a 4-week-old thrown into a garbage bin to die,and Winnie as a week-old orphan hiding under a barn,so helpless that Cathy's husband,Eric,had to feed her milk with an eyedropper.
As the Keeslings recalled it,a gas-driven pump being used broke down,spreading carbon monoxide through the house.By the time Winnie went to rescue,the couple's 14-year-old son was already unconscious."Winnie jumped on the bed and was clawing at me,with a kind of angry sound,"Cathy Keesling said.The state police responding to her 911 call said the family was only minutes from death,judging by the amount of poisonous gas in the house.
Amy Paul's husband was at his job when she took a midday break from making jewelry and bit into an apple."Normally I peel them,but I read in Good Housekeeping Magazine that the skin has all the nutrients,so I ate the skin,and that's what caused me to choke,"she recalled."I couldn't breathe and I was in panic when Toby jumped on me.He never does that,but he did,and saved my life."
Both Toby and Winnie accompanied their owners to the awards luncheon.

2.Traveling without a map in different countries,I find out about different"styles"of directions every time I ask"How can I get to the post office?"
Foreign tourists are often confused  in Japan because most streets there don't have name signs; in Japan,people use landmarks in their directions instead of street names.For example,the Japanese will say to travelers,"Go straight down to the corner.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.The post office is across from the bus stop."
People in Los Angeles,the US,have no idea of distance on the map:they measure distance by time,not miles."How far away is the post office?"you ask."Oh,"they answer,"it's about five minutes from here."You don't understand completely,"Yes,but how many miles away is it,please?"To this question you won't get an answer,because most probably they don't know it themselves.
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language.Instead,a Greek will often say,"Follow me."Then he'll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.
Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question.What happens in the situation?A New Yorker might say,"Sorry,I have no idea."But in Yucatan,Mexico,no one answers"I don't know."People there believe that"I don't"is impolite.They usually give an answer,but often a wrong one.So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan!
However,one thing will help you everywhere in the world.It's body language.
31.Which one of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?B
A."Go south two miles.Turn west and then go another mile."
B."Turn right at the hospital and go past a school.The library is right in front of you."
C."The post office is about five minutes from here."
D."The post office is at Street Kamira."

B.There are different ways to give directions in different parts of the world.
C.People in some places give directions in miles,but people in other places give directions in time.
