M: Yeah, I know. I used to come here when I was a little child.
W: This place must be very special to you, then.
M: Yes, it is. I used to come here with my family at night to watch the shooting stars.
W: Did you see a lot of shooting stars?
M: Sometimes there were, sometimes there weren't. But I liked coming here even if we didn't see any.
W: Did you ever see any wild animals? I heard there are wolves around here. I think it might be scary to see a wolf at night. Did you ever see one?
M: I've never seen a wolf, because there aren't any wolves in England anymore. Sometimes deer cross the road in the evening. I've seen many different kinds of birds flying before sunset. Once, I thought I saw a bear. I was a little afraid, especially when it stood up on its back legs. It started coming toward me in the dark.
W: Did you run?
M: No. It started talking to me, actually. I was surprised, but then I saw it was just my dad. He'd been looking for something he dropped on the ground.

【原文】Mr. Smithson has been taking pictures of his neighbors, and now they're angry. He's a photographer who lives on the second floor of an apartment building in New York City. For his project called “The Neighbors”，he secretly took pictures of the residents of a luxury apartment building across the street. Those photographs are now being sold for thousands of dollars at an art gallery. But it turns out the neighbors aren't very happy with having their pictures secretly taken and sold. Even though Mr. Smithson didn't show their faces, many of them feel embarrassed that the images show private moments that include taking naps and children resting with teddy bears. In a statement about the project, the 60-year-old Smithson says his work is similar to bird-watching. He says his project is not about privacy. In the photographer's opinion, the people in the apartment building create a stage when they open their curtains. He says he carefully takes pictures from the shadows of his home into theirs. He feels he's like a bird-watcher, quietly waiting for hours to catch the best view. According to experts contacted by our news reporters, there is likely no legal case against Mr. Smithson because the faces in his pictures can't be seen.

B
Spreading truth and knowledge
If you have ever talked to doctors in the hospitals, you may find that many of them are quite serious and speak in a range of terms that may be difficult to understand. But Zhang Wenhong, the leader of the Shanghai team of experts in the treatment of novel coronavirus pneumonia, is one of the exceptions. He caught the public's attention for his recent frank and funny speech.
Zhang's words first went viral (走红) on the internet after he said in late January that he had dispatched (派遣) doctors and nurses who are members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) to frontline hospitals to treat coronavirus cases.
“When becoming CPC members, we vowed (发誓) that we would always prioritize people's interests. . . in the face of difficulties,” Zhang said. “This is the moment we live up to the pledge (誓言). All CPC members must rush to the frontline. No bargaining.” Such a hardcore declaration of his attitude won widespread applause among internet users. A person's morals are witnessed most in a critical situation. Nothing could win more recognition from the people than the down-to-earth behavior of the CPC members,” said Yang Haiyan, a 32-year-old Shanghai resident.
One month later, when Zhang advised local residents to reduce the risk of spreading the virus by staying at home, he said in Shanghai dialect: “If you don't stop seeing friends, you will see them again in the ICU.”
Though chased by the media, Zhang described himself as a medical worker who must speak out now, but will return to keeping a low profile after the outbreak ends.
“I spoke because of the fear among the public, owing to limited knowledge of the contagion (传染病),” said Zhang on Feb 26. “However, once the curtain of this coronavirus incident falls, it may be hard to find me. I'll just hide myself in a corner, studying complicated patient cases and doing some reading, silently. ”
23. What has made Zhang Wenhong so popular online?
A. The way he treats his patients.
B. His honest and humorous speech.
C. His pledge to fight against the virus.
D. His broad knowledge of the novel coronavirus.
24. He dispatched CPC members to frontline hospitals because he believed that .
A. they would bargain less
B. they are more professional
C. they should take the lead as they had vowed
D. they would be calmer in a critical situation
25. What can we conclude from Zhang Wenhong's words in the last two paragraphs?
A. He doesn't like to speak in public.
B. He mainly treats people with complicated diseases.
C. He is not a person who is after fame and attention.
D. He is looking forward to taking a break after the epidemic.
【答案】23. B 24. C 25. C
