阅读理解。 A father of 20 has been reunited with 11 of his estranged (分开的) children thanks to a photographer
he met after saving a Blaina stab (刺) victim"s life.
Mr. Holpin was enjoying a night out at Blaina Fair when he witnessed a young girl attacked by a man
with a knife. He bravely removed the weapon from the attacker, and saved the girl.
Betina Skovbro was sent to photograph Mr. Holpin for a newspaper covering the story, and they had
a pleasant conversation. Miss Skoybro said, "He mentioned he was a father to 20 children, 11 of whom
he had no contact with, and he showed me the tatto (纹身) on his back of a huge family tree covered with
all his children"s names, which I thought was amazing."
Betina was moved by his story and decided to help him, so they began looking for his missing children
and documented the process with photographs.
"It was strange at first being photographed, but I got used to it. We ended up spending a year together,
and Betina became like a member of the family-she even spent Christmas Day with us." With Benita"s help,
they searched for the missing children from four previous relationships.
One of the last photographs Belina took was published in National Geographic magazine. It was about
Mr. Holpin cradling (抱) his youngest child, while the baby"s name was added to the family tree on his back.
He said, "Each time I met one of my children, I had no idea what to say. I told them that the reason I
have my tattoo is because even though I had no way of getting in contact I was always thinking about them."
Mr Holpin"s children were just as shocked as he was to meet with their father-one daughter had even been
told that he was dead. A lot of his kids had been told bad things about him. He said, "I have had my troubles
in the past, but hopefully the story about the stabbing and Miss Skovbro"s photographs have helped prove that
I am not a bad guy after all, and I really love all my children."
Now, he is really close to his kids and they"re close to him. He expressed that he wouldn"t lose touch with
them again. 1. Betina met Mr. Holpin for the first time to _____. A. take a photo for him for a newspaper
B. help him find his missing children
C. document the process with photographs
D. spend the Christmas Day with his family 2. Mr Holpin thought that he kept the tattoo on his back _____. A. not to lose contact with his family
B. to search for the missing children

C. He must have some troubles.
D. He loved them very much. 4. Which would be the best title of the passage? A. Father of 20 Finds Children

13 out of his seat in an instant and said that he had to go home for a while to do some homework but he

I had looked forward to this day for a long time. Finally I, Kirsty Stuart, would stand on the top of Mount Blanc, the highest mountain in the Alps. Although I climbed often in my native Scotland, this was my first trip to the Alps. My companions-Jean-Pierre Barton, Maurice Gautier, and Mary Sargent-and I left our camp early and planned to reach the top by late morning. As we neared the top, large clouds gathered and it began to snow. We found shelter and decided to wait for the snow to stop. After three hours, however, we decided to go back and try again the next day. We started down the mountain in the thick snow. Jean-Pierre forgot his sunglasses and went back to look for them. As he was returning to us, he started to fall. His fall started an avalanehe (雪崩) and it was falling towards us! I was swept away by the heavy snow. Jean-Pierre hurried down to me. "Are you OK?" he asked. "I think I broke my leg," I answered. "I"d better radio for help!" he said."Where are the others?" We couldn"t see Maurice or Mary anywhere. Jean-Pierre called the emergency radio number, and the police said they would send help right away. It seemed like hours, but only minutes later we heard the welcome sound of a helicopter. The helicopter couldn"t land on the mountainside, so they lowered two men, two dogs and a stretcher (担架). One man ran to me, but I told him to search for the others. The dogs were trained for avalanche rescue and soon began to dig crazily in the snow. Bernardo, the lead dog, found Mary"s scarf and led the rescuers to her. Maurice was nearby. The men gave us hot drinks and warm blankets and then prepared to lift us into the helicopter. Two men inside the helicopter pulled us up with the ropes. I went first on the stretcher. Once we were safely inside, the helicopter flew to the hospital in Chamonix Our poor rescuers and their dogs had to climb all the way back down the mountain. Later we would find these brave men and thank them for saving our lives. | ||||||||||||||

When I walked into the house after school, the first thing I noticed was a box with items I recognized from my dad"s office. When he told me that he was laid off, I thought he was joking. Then I noticed his seriousness and realized he was telling the truth. My father has always been a hard worker. He has prided himself on his career. 1_____ I guess I had taken his work for granted. 2_____ For starters, he was home all the time. It meant my bed had to be made, my room cleaned up, and my homework done right after school. I would come home every day to find him at the computer searching for jobs. 3_____ He seemed down, though he tried to be optimistic. He asked my brother and me to spend less. I gave up my spending money, which wasn"t much. I also found a part-time job. 4_____ He explained that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business. Day by day, I watched him build it. One evening I asked if he needed help. "Only if it doesn"t affect school," he said. I showed up at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months. 5_____ The terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties. Now I know that through creative problem-solving, I can always find Plan B. I can ask for help and take risks.
