I had been following the yellowish-green markers for a “popular and easy” three-mile out-and-back hike. Immediately after the trailhead(山道的起点), the trail became very rocky and steep. But having read information about the hike, I knew within five minutes, I was supposed to reach the hike’s first overlook.

However, the overlook never arrived. Instead, I found myself lost in the woods. Pulling out my cellphone, I saw it read “no service”. I checked the last text message I’d sent to my mom. It read, “Conference ended…going for a small hike before my flight home this afternoon.” I put my phone away and kept moving and yelling, “Help! Is anybody out there?” Every so often, I’d stop to listen, but I never heard a reply.

I got out my phone again. The battery was running out fast as it searched for a signal. I struggled to find a place where I could get service. When I did, I called my mom. It went through! In a shaky voice, I said, “Mom?” And then the call dropped. More than 1,500 miles away, my mom instantly knew something was wrong. She called the Denver Police Department and was directed to the US Forest Service.

This was how I was introduced to John, an operator from the US Forest Service. Following John’s instruction on the phone, I finally escaped from the woods. I breathed a sigh of relief. Then my phone rang, and it was John, making sure I was still going in the right direction. “By the way,” he said, “we’ve had your mother on hold this whole time. We know once you get down the mountain, you will absolutely want to give her a call.”

A. He yelled for help. B. He continued walking.

C. He returned to the start. D. He found the first overlook.

2.When did the author tell his mom about the hiking?

A. After he got lost. B. After John’s call.

C. After a conference. D. After the call dropped.

3.How did the author’s mom know he was in danger?

A. The author called and told her about it.

B. The author’s flight didn’t arrive on time.

C. She learned it from the US Forest Service.

D. She sensed something unusual on the phone.

4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. The author’s mom was on line waiting.

B. John came to the woods for the author.

C. John lost touch with the author’s mom.

D. The author went in the wrong direction.

Whether you want to improve your writing skills as a creative writer or simply perfect your skills for schoolwork, you can take some steps to learn how to be a better writer.

1. Use active instead of passive voice.

In English, the most basic sentence structure is S-V-O: Subject-Verb-Object. The passive voice usually requires more words and use of a “to be” verb form, which can suck the energy out of your writing. Learn to avoid these constructions as much as you can. 1. It conventionally uses the passive voice to put the emphasis on the results, rather than the researchers.

2. 2.

Finding the right verb or adjective can turn an uninspired sentence into one people will remember and quote for years to come. Look for words that are as specific as possible. Strong doesn't mean obscure, or more complicated. Don't say "utilize" when you could say "use." 3.

3. Cut the chaff.

4. You don't get points for saying in 50 words what could be said in 20, or for using multi-syllable words when a short one does just as well. It might feel good at first to pack a lot of ideas and details into a single sentence, but chances are that sentence is just going to be hard to read. If a phrase doesn't add anything valuable, just cut it. 5. If you notice that your writing is filled with "-ly" words, it might be time to take a deep breath and give your writing more focus.

A. Use strong words.

B. Show, don't tell.

C. Good writing is simple, clear and direct.

D. The main exception to this is science writing.

E. Cutting the chaff is best done at the editing stage.

F. "He sprinted" is not necessarily better than "he ran."

G. Don't write "screamed fearfully" -- "scream" already suggests fear.

I could have easily gone through life without getting to know one of the most romantic feelings---love for a dog.

For at least ten years my _______ had been suggesting that we get a dog. There were several reasons why the idea _______. We had noticed that, on our block, couples with no children as a rule _______ one large or two small dogs. So we got one puppy _______ we too had no children.

From that day on, the invisible（看不见的） _______ for the love of the new member of our household began at my home.

He seemed to ________ that at once. Most of the meals that my wife had ________ for him with greater care than those for me—he didn’t ________ look at.

Every evening I went out walking with him. I could not know who was walking whom ________ one evening, when, tired from work, I ________ the walk. The dog was very angry and dragged me out.

Last night our dog pulled me by the ear with his teeth, ________ me up in my dream, and dragged me into the kitchen to make me turn off the ________ which had disturbed（干扰） his sleep. I meekly（乖乖地） ________ that I had forgotten to switch off the light, but that was not ________. He looked at me like a teacher at a pupil who repeatedly makes ________.

An old man was seating in an armchair at home, reading his newspaper. Beside him lay a dog sleep soundly. The old man decided to leaving home for a while, and he couldn’t go out with his slippers on. So he woke up the dog and let it fetched the shoes for him. Out of its expectation, the dog didn’t even stand, but just barked with two eyes closed again. He was complete puzzled. As he was wondering what was happening, a cat appeared in the front of him. Why do you think a cat came there?

The health problems about cloned animals , particularly those who appear healthy but have hidden illnesses or problems that appear unexpectedly later in life, have the potential to cause real risks to the safety of the food products from those animals. Ian Wilmut, a lead scientist involved in the creation of Dolly, the first cloned animal, has warned that even small imbalances in a clone’s hormone, protein, or fat levels could bring its milk or meat into danger.

As part of its risk assessment on animal cloning, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) concluded that milk and meat from cloned animals and their offspring (后代)are as safe to eat as products from conventional animals. The FDA further announced that it would not require food products from cloned animals or their offspring to be labeled as such.

Consumer watchdog groups pointed out that the FDA’s analysis was based on limited data supplied mainly from the cloning companies themselves. In addition, while food safety is an obvious concern of consumers, it is not the only issue that makes people uncomfortable with animal cloning. For example, surveys indicate that 63 percent of consumers would not buy food from cloned animals even if it were labeled as “safe”. Concerns about the morality of cloning, as well as concerns for animal welfare, lead a big majority of people to oppose cloning animals for food. However, these issues were not considered by the FDA. Without labels to identify cloned foods, consumers who oppose animal cloning would be forced to make purchases against their principles without knowing. Consumers have a right to know how their food is produced so they can make informed decisions about what they buy and what they feed their families.

1.What is Ian Wilmut’s attitude towards food products from cloned animals?

A. Approving. B. Cautious.

C. Uncertain. D. Indifferent.

2.What does the underlined word “such” in Paragraph 2 refer to ?

A. Safe. B. Expensive

C. Unsafe D. Conventional.

3.We can learn from the last paragraph that _____.

A. consumers didn’t believe what the FDA said

B. the FDA took consumers’ concerns seriously

C. consumers were well-informed about the safety of food

D. the FDA forced consumers to buy things they didn’t want

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A. Concerns for animal welfare.

B. The problems with animal cloning.

C. Why people are uncomfortable with animal cloning.

D. Concerns about the food products from cloned animals.
