Couldn’t really blame him.There was nothing wrong with what he was doing——be was earning some money in the stockroom.But he was out in the world now, he wasn't where he had been when everything was bathed in sunlight;he was in Ohio Stadium,hearing the supporting shouts from 78,000 people who loved him and his teammates.He had moved past that trust of life’s roles,as everyone does.It was his misfortune to have,been famous very early;there must have been dozens and dozens of men in their twenties working in the Lazarus stockroom that holiday season,but Mike Ingram was the one sure to attract cnrious passers,because he was no longer who he was supposed to be.

Mike McClure walked into Sarasota Bay for a little fishing on a beautiful day last April. This afternoon, the water was shallow enough at low tide that McClure could easily walk 100 yards offshore and cast (投) his line in any direction.

Near sunset, still without a fish, he decided to turn back. Rather than turn to his earlier course, he chose a more direct path toward shore, thinking the bay wouldn't get deeper along the way. Instead, he was trapped. He tried to walk in different directions, but shallower water eluded (避开) him. Finally, he decided his safest choice was to head straight for land.

"Within about five steps, the water was coming in through the top of the waders (高筒防水胶靴)," says McClure.

He felt the deadweight(重物) of the flooding waders pulling him down and knew that if he didn't get out of them, he would drown. But he failed to kick his way out of the waders. Instead, they pulled him completely below the surface.

Back onshore, Eliza Cameron, 19, Loren Niurka Mora, 20, and Caitlin Petro, 20, had been watching McClure fish as they rested on the grass after a long week of classes. They saw McClure go under and then heard him cry, "Help!"

The three friends kicked off their shoes and ran into the bay. They were all good swimmers, but all hid a fear that he might pull them down too because they'd have to dive to save him.

When they reached him, he'd managed to kick himself out of the waders, but his eyes had partly rolled back. Cameron and Mora each hooked (钩住) an arm under his shoulders, while Petro supported his back and held his hand. Then the three friends tried their best to tug (拉) him towards shore. Finally, they all returned to the shore safely.

Mike McClure didn't turn back by his earlier course because      .

     A. he wanted to choose a short course

     B. his earlier course was dangerous

     C. he just wanted to take a risk

     D. he knew where the water was deep

What directly trapped Mike McClure in the bay?

     A. His wrong decision.

     B. The coming high tide.

    C. His waders' being flooded.

    D. The depth of water.

During the rescue,      .

       A. the three women were afraid of being trapped in the water

       B. Cameron and Petro helped catch Mike McClure's arms

       C. the three women removed Mike McClure's waders

       D. Mike McClure still wore his flooding waders

What’s the main idea of this passage?

      A. Enjoy fishing on a beautiful day.

      B. Help others when they are in trouble.

      C.A terrible experience during fishing.

      D. How to rescue people when they’re drowning.
