     Eight-year-old Jesse Arbogast was playing in the sea late one evening in July 2001 when a 7-foot bull
shark attacked him and tore off his arm. Jesse's uncle jumped into the sea and dragged the boy to shore.
The boy was not breathing. His aunt gave him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (人工呼吸) while his uncle
rang the emergency services. Pretty soon, a helicopter arrived and flew the boy to hospital. It was a much
quicker journey than the journey by road.
     Jesse's uncle, Vance Folsenzier, ran back into the sea and found the shark that had attacked his nephew.
He picked the shark up and threw it onto the beach. A coastguard shot the fish four times and although this
did not kill it, the shark's jaws relaxed so that they could open them, and reach down into its stomach, and
pull out the boy's arm.
     At the Baptist Hospital in Pensacola, Dr Ian Rogers spent eleven hours reattaching Jesse's arm "It was a
complicated operation," he said, "but we were lucky. If the arm hadn't been recovered in time, we wouldn't
have been able to do the operation at all. What I mean is that if they hadn't found the shark, we wouldn't have
had a chance."
     According to local park ranger Jack Tomosvic, shark attacks are not that common "Jesse was just
unlucky," he says, "evening is the shark's feeding time. And Jesse was in an area without lifeguards. This
would never have happened if he had been in an area where swimming is allowed."
     When reporters asked Jesse's uncle how he had had the courage to fight a shark, he replied, "I was mad
and you do some strange things when you're mad."
1. What was the boy doing when the accident happened?
[     ]
A. Feeding a hungry shark.
B. Jumping into the rough sea.
C. Dragging a boy to the shore.
D. Swimming in a dangerous area.
2. In which way did the boy's uncle help with the operation?
[     ]
A. By finding his lost arm.
B. By shooting the fish.
C. By flying him to hospital.
D. By blowing into his mouth.
3. How was his uncle in time of danger?
[     ]
A. Careful.
B. Brave.
C. Optimistic.
D. Patient.

     There are two ways to save money traveling. The first way is to get the best deals on the specific (特
定的) things you want. There is a limitation to this type of approach though. If you find the lowest price
on the best hotel in Honolulu at the height of the season, you will save money, but still have a very
expensive vacation. Trying to get exactly what you want will generally be an expensive proposition(提议),
in travel and in life.
     The other approach is to be a true opportunist. This will be difficult for some of you, and entirely
unacceptable to others. Nonetheless (尽管如此), the travelers who get to travel the most, go to the
widest variety of places, learn the most and do the most, are the opportunists. This will be true until you
are so wealthy that you have no monetary (货币的;钱的) limits. Zxxk
     The first time I went to Ecuador, I went there because it was cheap. If it wasn't, I would have had a
great time-somewhere else. The trip lasted a month, and cost $1045, which included air fare and even
the $130 fee for a guide to take me to the top or glacier (冰川) covered Mount Chimborazo.    
     I cut the cost by taking a bus from my home in Michigan to Miami, and back again when I returned
from Ecuador. The round-trip (双程) ticket cost $158. The round-trip flight to Quito from Miami was
only $256, because it was a courier (信使, 通讯员) flight, which meant I signed for some luggage(car
parts), and  could only take carry-on luggage.
     Never did I feel deprived, or bored. I had a great time, eating wherever it was cheap and clean, doing
all sorts of inexpensive, but interesting things, and traveling across the country to climb Chimborazo. I also met and fell in love with my wife Ana.
     Being an opportunist means you'll have just as much variety, and probably almost everything you
want-eventually. You just have to stop trying to get exactly what you want exactly when you want it. If
the guide that took me up Chimborazo hadn't dropped his price from $200 to $130, I would have spent $2 for a bus and gone hiking on EI Altar, another great Andean mountain. That would have left me with
enough money for several other minor adventures.
1. The underlined phrase "the best deals" in the first paragraph probably refers to ______.
A. the best service  
B. the lowest price
C. the cheapest goods
D. the best approaches
2 . The last paragraph was to tell us how to ______.
A. save money for minor adventures
B. cut down traveling costs.
C. deal with different situations
D. become opportunist travelers
3. It's suggested that the author _____.
A. went hiking on El Altar
B. traveled with his wife in Ecuador
C. is an opportunist traveler
D. likes traveling around the world
4. Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?
A. Cheap Travel Secrets
B. Travel Secrets
C. A Travel Opportunist
D. Travel Tips
