A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the was he found himself unable to ask for help — his mobile phone went out of as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but to in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the of the rescue.
It is almost that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his : "First of all I checked up my conditions and found myself not in mortal （致命的）danger. As there was no way to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from . In this way I dozed （打盹）off ."
His story put an end to my regret for the of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men to explore a mountain cave and got lost. to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of .Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering （闪烁）not far away .
Don’t you think that you can compare it with itself? When you meet with obstacles （障碍）in life and work, you are lost in darkness. you it’s unclear yet and you needn’t put up struggle . It seems to be a negative attitude, a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great in the first place.

Miss Jackson who teaches at the Settlement House isn"t rich, but she knows things. She understands people. Her eyes look straight into yours when she talks with you.

The Johnson family from England believe they are lucky to be alive after surviving an incredible incident off the coast of Australia. The Johnsons had been that they might see some whales when they were _ a yacht （帆船）— a large expensive boat for a 10-day sailing around the Whitsunday Islands. , they had no clue just how their viewing would be. Two hours into their journey a nine-meter-long humpback whale out of the ocean and crashed into their boat before returning to the water.
Mark Johnson，the eldest son，was sailing the yacht when he heard an immense bang and a thud(重击声).He thought the yacht had hit a rock. However, when he looked up, he saw the whale down the deck of the boat. He told the reporters, “ We were staring into its right eye. It was a very _ moment. The eye was about the of a dinner plate. It was huge.”
for the Johnson family, no one was hurt, but the yacht suffered damage. The whale had ruined the mast and rigging — the pole and ropes which hold the ——and so the family was left at sea, 10 miles from the shore. The equipment was also damaged, but fortunately they had a cell phone and were able to call for help.
Why the whale jumped onto the yacht is a ，but the family thinks that maybe the boat had not sailed between the whale and its baby calf. Perhaps the whale was trying to its calf when it jumped, hit the yacht by chance.

When Jean Calment entered the world in 1875, telephones and automobiles still lay in the future. Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso were not yet born. The Eiffel Tower was 14 years from being built. As a teenager, she met Vincent Van Gogh, near her home in Arles, in the south of France. He was “very ugly, ungracious, impolite, sick—I forgive him, they called him loco.” She recalled. When she died last week at age 122, she was the world’s oldest person. (There were others who claimed to the title, but only Calment had the official documents to prove her age)
Each February 21, her birthday, she would share the secrets of long life. Some years it was “a sense of humor”, others it was “keeping busy”. “God may have forgotten me,” she once explained. The truth probably was that she had good genes. Her mother reportedly lived to be 86 and her father 94.
Her life had its sadness: she outlived her husband, her only daughter and her grandson. According to a friend, she was imperturbable. “If you can’t do anything about it,” she reportedly said, “don’t worry about it.”
In her last years she was nearly blind and deaf, but her health remained good. She ate a few bars of chocolate each week and continued smoking until a few years ago, when she could no longer light her own cigarettes. She never lost her sense of humor. On her 110th birthday, she commented, “I have only ever had one wrinkle, and I am sitting on it.” Her longevity made her famous. Her spirits made her eternal(永恒的)

Father’s Garden
My father was always a good(酷爱的) gardener. One of my earliest memories is standing without shoes in the freshly tilled(翻耕的) soil, my hands blackened from digging in the ground.
As a child, I loved following Dad around in the garden. I remember Dad pushing the tiller(耕作机) ahead in perfectly straight lines. Dad loved growing all sorts of things: yellow and green onions, watermelons almost as big as me, rows of yellow corn, and our favorite--- red tomatoes.
As I grew into a teenager, I didn’t get so excited about gardening with Dad. Instead of magical land of possibility, it had turned into some kind of prison. As Dad grew older, his love for gardening never disappeared. After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own, Dad turned to gardening like never before. Even when he was diagnosed with cancer, he still took care of his garden.
But then, the cancer, bit by bit, invaded his body. I had to do the things he used to do. What really convinced me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year. The rows and rows of multicolored vegetables were gone. Too tired to weed them, he simply let them be. He only planted tomatoes.
For the first few years after he died, I couldn’t even bear to look at anyone’s garden without having strong memories pour over me like cold water from a bucket. Three years ago, I decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few tomatoes. That morning, after breaking up a fair amount of soil, something caught the corner of my eye and I had to smile. It was my eight-year-old son Nathan, happily playing in the freshly tilled soil.
小题1:Why did the author like the garden when he was a child?| A．He wanted to be a garden-crazy like his father. | | B．He loved being in the garden with his father. | | C．The garden was full of his favorite food. | | D．The garden was just freshly tilled. |
小题2:When all the kids started their own families, the author’s father _____.| A．stopped his gardening. | | B．turned to other hobbies. | | C．devoted more to gardening. | | D．focused on planting tomatoes. |
小题3:What happened to the garden when the author’s father was seriously ill?| A．There was a great harvest. | | B．The garden was almost deserted. | | C．No plant grew in the garden at all. | | D．The author’s son took charge of the garden. |
小题4:Why did the author start his garden with tomatoes?| A．He wanted to honor his father. | | B．His son liked the fields of tomatoes. | | C．He only knew how to grow tomatoes. | | D．He thought tomatoes were easy to manage. |
