crackling (噼啪声) of flames (火苗) somewhere below there was not a sound in the two-storey house at
Baldwin, Long Island.
With his father away on night duty at a local factory, Glenn was worried about the safety of his mother,
his sister Karen, 14 and his 12-year-old brother Todd. He ran downstairs through the smoke filled house to
push and pull at Karen and Todd until they sat up. Then he helped each one through the house to the safety
of the garden. There, his sister and brother, taking short and quick breaths (呼吸) and coughing, collapsed
(倒) on the lawn (草坪).
The nine-year-old raced back into the house and upstairs to his mother"s room. He found it impossible to
wake her up. Mrs. White, a victim (受害者) of the smoke, was unconscious (失去知觉的), and there was
nobody to help Glenn carry her to the garden. But the boy remained calm and, as a fireman said later,"acted
with all the self-control of a trained adult."
On the bedroom telephone, luckily still working, Glenn called his father and, leaving Mr. White to telephone
the fire brigade (消防队员) and ambulance (救护车) service, got on with the task of saving his mother.
First he filled a bucket with water from the bathroom and threw water over his mother and her bed. Then,
with a wet cloth around his head he went back to the garden. He could hear the fire engine coming up, but
how would the firemen find his mother in the smoke-filled house where flames had almost swallowed up
the ground floor?
Grasping (抓住) firmly a ball of string from the garage, Glenn raced back into the house and dashed (猛冲)
upstairs to his mother"s room. Tying (系) one end of the string to her hand he ran back, laying out (铺放)
the string as he went, through the hall and back out into the garden.
Minutes later he was telling fire chief John Coughlan,"The string will lead you to mother." Mrs. White
was carried to safety as the flames were breaking through the bedroom floor.
B. He went to see if his father had come back from work.
C. He wanted to find out what was happening.
D. He was worried about his mother"s safety.
B. By tying a string to her hand.
C. By putting out the fire himself.
D. By carrying her to safety with his brother.
B. Glenn"s neighbor.
C. Glenn.
D. Glenn"s father.
B. He rushed out to the lawn.
C. He put a wet cloth around his head.
D. He threw water all over himself.
B. he had dealt with the emergency (紧急情况) calmly and wisely
