  Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns，not far apart. Both towns have many hotels， and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists.

  Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. Next day，this news ap?peared on Page 2 of the town's newspaper,The Beldon Post:

  Fire at Seabreeze

  Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors, " Please don't smoke cigarettes in bed. " This was Beldon's first hotel fire for five years.

  The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one： Another Beldon Hotel Catches Fire .

  Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing，bedclothes and some furni?ture at the Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, "An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on,I heard a funny noise from the lamp. " We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of ad?venture does not happen in Canfield.

  Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami(海哺)，adding weight to ideas they possess a "sixth sense" for disasters, experts said on Thursday.

  Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found.

  "No elephants are dead,not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening," H. D. Ratnayake, deputy director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.

  The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km (2 miles) inland at Yala National Park in the southeast, Sri Lanka's biggest wildlife reserve and home to hundreds of wild elephants. "There has been a lot of evidence about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proven," said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour spe?cialist at Johannesburg Zoo.

  "There have been no specific studies because you can't really test it in a lab or field set?ting ,"he said.

Other authorities agreed with this conclusion.

  "Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain phenomenon, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting coming disasters，" said Clive Walker，who has written several books on African wildlife.

  Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators(食肉动物）.

  The idea of an animal "sixth sense" is a lasting one that the evidence on Sri Lanka's damaged coast is likely to add to.

 I shall never forget the day when the earthquake took place. The time was 5:15 in the afternoon and I was driving along the road to 1my daughter from school. Our plan was to go 2 together. I had finished work at about 4 o'clock and then 3 to the post office, then get off at a shop in order to buy some  fruit. We like to have some fruit to eat after our swim.

  I was driving along a high road on my way to the school. Over my road was another way for cars coming the 5 way. I was hungry so I put the bag of apples in the seat 6me and started to eat one.

  Suddenly I saw the cars 7 me start to move from side to side. I slowed down. Then 8 started to shake. I didn't know what was happening. 9 something had gone wrong with my car. I drove even slower. I stopped the car and at the same moment the 10 fell on?to the cars in front of me.

  I found myself in the dark. I couldn't move. The bottom parts of both my legs and my feet were 11 badly and I couldn't move them. All around me was 12 . But below me I could hear shouts and a lot of noise. Then I 13 what had happened. I had been in an earth?quake.

  For about two hours nobody came. Luckily I could reach the bag of apples，so 14I had plenty to eat. Then I 15 people climbing towards me. A team of people had come to see if anyone was under the 16 road. I called out "I'm here!" I heard a shout. Soon 17 climbed to the side of the bridge near my car, "How are you doing?" he asked.
  "Not too bad," I said, "but my feet and legs 18 as if they're broken.”
  "We'll have you out of there just as 19 as we can," he said. They didn't get me out until the next morning. I had been in the 20 for 14 hours.

 There were still six miles to walk,and I came along as fast as I could. The night grew darker and darker，and I wished for my 1 ，because I knew that some of the bears had come out of their winter caves. I had seen their 2 when I went to town in the morning.

  Bears are hungry and cross at this time of year;you know they have been 3in their caves all winter long with nothing to eat，and that makes them thin and hungry when they wake up. I did not want to meet 4 .

  I hurried 5 as quickly as I could in the dark. By and by the stars gave a little light. It was still black as pitch(漆黑的)6 the woods were thick, 7 in the open places I could see dimly(朦胧地).I was 8 when I came into an open place where the stars gave me this faint light.

  All the time I was 9 ，as well as I could, for bears. I was listening for the sounds they make when they go 10 through the bushes.

  Then I came11 into an open place，and there，right in the middle of the road，I saw a big，black bear.

He was standing up on his hind legs,looking at me. I could see his eyes12 I could see his pig snout( 口鼻部).I could even see one of his claws, in the starlight.

  My13 stood straight up. I stopped in my tracks, and stood still. The bear did not move. There he stood, looking at me.

  I knew it would do no good to try to go around him. He would follow me into the dark woods, where he could see 14 than I could.

  I had to pass that bear,to get home. I thought that I could 15 him,he might get out of the road and let me go. So I took a deep16，and suddenly I shouted with my strength and ran at him,waving my 17 He didn't move.

At last I looked around，and I got a solid heavy branch that had been broken from a tree by the weight of 18 in the winter.

  I lifted it up in my hands,and ran straight at that bear. I swung(挥舞)my branch as 19 as I could and brought it down. Bang!On his head.

  And 20 he still stood, for he was nothing but a big,black, burned stump(树桩)！

training course培训课程   custom风俗习惯   accommodation食宿Dear Jim，

I'm writing to you because I'm interested in your training and experience in France.

                                Yours sincerely, Li Hua

 Sometimes people come into your life and you come to realize that they were meant to be there，to serve some sort of purpose，teach you a lesson，or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be (possibly your room?mate,neighbor, co-worker,long-lost friend, or even a complete stranger)，but when you lock eyes with them,you know in an instant that they will affect your life in some way.

  And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first,but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would never have realized your potential, strength, willpower or heart. Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. Illness，injury，love，brilliant achievements，and sheer(十足的）stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be,life would be like a smoothly paved(铺平的)，straight,flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and completely pointless.

  The people you meet who affect your life，and the ups and downs you experience can be learned from. In fact,they are probably the most important ones. If someone hurts you,forgive them，for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being careful when you open your heart. If someone loves you,love them back,not only because they love you,but because in a way,they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.

(   ) 5. ________ may become the people who affect you a lot in your life.

A.     A friend who lost touch with you for a long time

B.     A passer-by who you don't know at all

C.     A classmate who hurt you

D.     All of the above

(   ) 6. In the opinion of the writer,which of the following may be the meaningful life to a person?

A.     A safe life without illness or injury.

B.     A life with some small obstacles.

C.     A comfortable life without any obstacles.

D.     A quiet life without anyone's interruption.

(   ) 7. What does the underlined phrase "in reflection" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.     Thinking about something in return.

B.     Looking forward.

C.     Talking about something with your friends.

D.     Finally finding an idea.

(   ) 8. Which of the following may be the best title of the passage?

A.     The Story of Life

B.     Everything May Happen

C.     Making Good Friends

D.     We Love the People Around Us
