Get out of here!”An eye witness, Army Sergeant Leo P Day was on guard at the nearby army post He saw exactly what happened next “I could see this boy struggling with the shark in the water,” he said “The sea was red with blood He was shouting and signalling someone to go back, go back Then I saw the girl She was swimming towards him She completely ignored his warning”Shirley reached Robert, and tried to take his hand“When I pulled, all I could see was his arm, handing by a thread,” she said So she put her arm about Roberts back, and started to swim towards the shore She kept praying “Dont let it attack again!” That journey to the shore seemed to last for hours At last, as they neared the shore, a fisherman threw them a line, and pulled them both the rest of the wayThe young man had lost a lot of blood, and died two and a half hours later, From the teeth marks, experts identified the attacker as a Great White SharkFor what Sergeant Day called “the greatest exhibition of bravery I have ever seen,” the President of the US gave Shirley a medal for bravery56When Albert was attacked by a shark Shirley Awas swimming in the sea Bwas watching him on the shoreCwas on guard at the nearby army postDwas shouting and struggling with a shark, too57Choose the right time order of the following events in the storya Army Sergeant saw the girl swimming to the boyb Shirley saw a great grey thingc They headed out to sead Robert diede A fisherman threw them a linef He saw a boy struggling with a sharkAb,c,e,d,f,aBc,a,f,d,e,bCb,c,f,a,d,eDc,b,f,a,e, d58We can learn from the passage that Athe two students were brave and considerateBthe fisherman was adventurous and helpfulCthe experts didnt do much research on sharksDthe Sergeant cared too much about his own lifeBBUKHANNON, West VirginiaTwo rescue teams slowly moved along a two-mile path on Monday night to the site of a coal mine explosion that trapped 13 miners, who had not been heard from since the early morning accident Meanwhile, at a nearby church, more than 250 family members and friends gathered, waiting for updates（最新报道）on the rescuers progress The miners were trapped at about 6:30 and many families werent informed of the accident until about 10 am-more than three hours after it happened“Its very upsetting, but youve got to be patient, I guess,” said John Helms, whose brother, Terry, was trapped in the mine The trapped miners were about 260 feet underground and about 10,000 feet from the Sago Mines entrance, said Roger Nicholson, general counsel from International Coal Group At a late night news conference, Nicholson said one team had advanced about 4, 800 feet in the four hours since entering the mine just before 6 pmAnother team entered the mine about 30 minutes later He said the crew was very experienced, with some members having worked underground for 30 to 35 yearsThe miners were equipped with about one hour of breathable oxygen eachThe company has not released the names of the miners The teams test the air about every 500 feet, and have to disconnect （remove） the power to the phones they use to communicate with the surface before doing that“ We dont want to be energizing anything if its in an atmosphere with burnable gases,” Kips saidThe cause of the explosion was not immediately knownHigh levels of carbon monoxide were discovered shortly after the explosion, which delayed rescue efforts, but those levels have since subsided（减退）, authorities said59According to the passage, we can infer that _Aall the miners who were trapped underground were still aliveBcommunication with the trapped miners was cut offCthe two rescue teams entered the mine at the same time Dthe rescue started as soon as the accident happened60If the first team advanced at an average speed, they could dig about _ per hourA1,000 feet B2,400 feetC1,200feet D4,800feet61Where can the passage be seen?AIn a magazine BIn a newspaper CIn a science book DOn an advertisement62Which of the following shows the position where the miners wd? CFor many of us, printed books are satisfying in ways beyond the words they contain Billions of printed books have been published, read and saved in the 600 years since movable type was invented, so why mess with a good things? Sony Electronics is doing just that, betting that readers will be won over by the convenience of readability of its new electronic book devices Sonys reader, the PRS-505, can hold 160 books in its fixed memory, enough to line the shelves on a good-sized wall in the average American home The $299 device is about the size of a paperback book, but a half-inch thick and weighs less than a pound The Sony book reader is revolutionary not only in its storage capacity The font（字体） is highly readable and adjustable by size Unlike laptop computers, you can put the Sony in your purse, read it in direct sunlight and even bookmark the pages And you can connect it to your PC to download booksSurprisingly, though the reader has liberated the book from paper, electronic books arent always a bargain For example, David Baldaccis Stone Cold download retails（零售） for $1519 at the Sony site, while Amazon（卓越网） will deliver a hard copy to your mailbox for $1619 The Sony reader also lets you store and play or display music So whats not to like about the Sony? Well, for many bibliophiles, a lot Book lovers like to have, hold and keep their volumes, which dont need charging You can write notes in the margins, and enjoy the ambience they provide on your book shelvesThe need for electronic reading devices is likely to grow as more people worried about the billions of tons of paper used for printed material Many believe the time will come when devices like the Sony reader are as common as printed newspapers and magazines today 63According to the passage, the Sony book reader _A is as light as a laptop computer B can hold more than 200 booksC is convenient to carry aroundD cannot be connected to a PC64What is the authors point when he mentions “Stone Cold”?A Amazons printed books are very cheapB “Stone Cold” can be got from the Sony site and AmazonC The Sony book reader is not very cheap to useD The Sony book reader can benefit its buyers a lot65The underlined word “bibliophiles” in Paragraph 5 refers to “_”A music loversB book loversC electronic reading devicesD Sony readers66According to the author, whats the future for the electronic reading devices?A Theyll replace printed newspapers and magazinesB Theyll still be more expensive than printed newspapersC Theyll become a must in peoples daily lifeD Theyll become more popular as time goes onDAs kids, my friends and I spent a lot of time out in the woods “The woods” was our part-time address, destination, purpose, and excuse If I went to a friends house and found him not at home, his mother might say, “Oh, hes out in the woods, ” with a tone（语气） of airy acceptance It is similar to the tone people sometimes use nowadays to tell me that someone Im looking for is on the golf course or at the gym, or even “away from his desk” For us ten-year-olds, “being out in the woods” was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a whileWe sometimes told ourselves that what we were doing in the woods was exploring（探索） Exploring was a more popular idea back then than it is today History seemed to be mostly about explorers Our explorations, though, seemed to have less system than the historic kind: something usually came up along the way Say we stayed in the woods, throwing rocks, shooting frogs, picking blackberries, digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Indian burial moundOften we got “lost” and had to climb a tree to find out where we were If you read a story in which someone does that successfully, be skeptical: the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight, and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees There were four or five trees that we visited regularlytall beeches, easy to climb and comfortable to sit inIt was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end By then some of us had reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence（青春期） In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria67The author and his friends were often out in the woods to _ A spend their free timeB play golf and other sports C avoid doing their schoolworkD keep away from their parents68 What can we infer from Paragraph 2 ? A The activities in the woods were well planned B Human history is not the result of exploration C Exploration should be a systematic activity D The author explored in the woods aimlessly69The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _A c
