| 阅读理解。 | I"m a 20-year-old boy, and the following is my story.
A month after I graduated from high school in August, 2007, I was coming home from swim practice
in the training centre of the city and was involved in a car accident. I was so seriously injured that I was in
a coma for more than two months at Prince Georges Hospital.
I suffered a lot from the experience of dying eight times during my coma and I couldn"t open my mouth
to talk or to communicate when I eventually came around. At that time, it seemed that walking was never
going to happen again due to all the extreme injuries. Just like my body, my dreams were completely destroyed.
But I was not going to let my injuries stop me from realizing my dreams.
After receiving a total of 15 operations and 36 blood transfusions, I had to make every great effort to learn
to talk, eat, walk, shower, and live on my own again. When I was out of hospital, I still had to go to outpatient
therapy in Waldorf, Maryland. After I spent a few months in a wheelchair, I took baby steps to walk on my
own. It was a miracle that I was able to walk again, but I still wanted to prove that I could not only walk, but
also run. When it came true, I wanted to get back into the pool again. After having a few lung tests, I was able
to go in the pool a little bit each week. After a few months of swim training, I began my freshman year at St.
Mary"s College of Maryland and then became a proud member of the swim team.
By telling my story, I want to make a positive influence on the world. I am just trying to live each day to
the fullest and inspire other people never to give up their dreams no matter how bad a situation is to them. I
remember when I was still in my hospital bed, I would have my mom and dad push me round in my wheelchair
to the other rooms to see the other patients and chat with them and their family members. I wanted to let them
know that everything was going to be okay. Somehow, things would work out for the best. | | 1. The underlined word "coma" in Paragraph 2 probably has the meaning of "_____". | | [ ] | A. operation

would like this $20 bill" Hands were raised. Then he said,"I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first let

"My friends," He continued, "You have all learned a good lesson. No matter 6 I did to the money, you still
wanted it because the bill did not lose its 7 . It was still worth $20. Many times in our 8 , we are dropped,

English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not
take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they
did not hear her.
My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me
call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people
who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in an adolescent voice
that was not very convincing, "This is Mrs. Tan."
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, "Why he don"t send me cheek already two
week lone."
And then, in perfect English I said:"I"m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks
ago, but it hasn"t arrived."
Then she talked more loudly. "What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss." And so I
turned to the stockbroker again, "I can"t tolerate any more excuse. If I don"t receive the check immediately,
I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week."
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real
Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English. When I was a teenager, my mother"s broken English
embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother"s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural.
It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was
the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world. | | 1. Why was the author"s mother poorly served? | | [ ] | A. She was unable to speak good English.
B. She was often misunderstood.
C. She was not clearly heard.
D. She was not very polite. | | 2. From Paragraph 2, we know that the author was _____. | | [ ] | A. good at pretending
B. rude to the stockbroker
C. ready to help her mother
D. unwilling to phone for her mother | | 3. After the author made the phone call, _____. | | [ ] | A. they forgave the stockbroker
B. they failed to get the check
C. they went to New York immediately
D. they spoke to their boss at once | | 4. What does the author think of her mother"s English now? | | [ ] | A. It confuses her.
B. It embarrasses her.
C. It helps her understand the world.
D. It helps her tolerate rude people. | | 5. We can infer from the passage that Chinese English _____. | | [ ] | A. is clear and natural to non-native speakers
B. is vivid and direct to non-native speakers
C. has a very bad reputation in America
D. may bring inconvenience in America | | 阅读理解。 | Lisa was running late. Lisa, 25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way: her parents were
coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started
to feel uncomfortably warm. By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired-maybe it hadn"t
been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the
tracks.
Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the
train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, "Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn"t
hesitate. He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. "No! Not
you!" his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see
the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so
that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly
regained consciousness, felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she"d been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood
pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldn"t, and that was when she realized how much
pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend
was calm on their 40一minute train ride downtown-just as he had been seconds after the rescue, which
made her think about her reaction at the time. "I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to
die," she explained. | | 1. What was the most probable cause for Lisa"s weakness? | | [ ] | A. She had run a long way.
B. She felt hot in the subway.
C. She had done a 1ot of work.
D. She had donated blood the night before. | | 2. Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend? | | [ ] | A. Because they would miss their train.
B. Because he didn"t see the train coming.
C. Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift.
D. Because she was afraid the train would kill him. | | 3. How did Frank save Lisa? | | [ ] | A. By lifting her to the platform.
B. By helping her rise to her feet.
C. By pulling her along the ground.
D. By dragging her away from the edge. | | 4. When did Lisa become conscious again? | | [ ] | A. When the train was leaving.
B. After she was back on the platform.
C. After the police and fire officials came.
D. When a man was cleaning the blood from her head. | | 5. The passage is intended to _____. | | [ ] | A. warn us of the danger in the subway
B. show US how to save people in the subway
C. tell US about a subway rescue
D. report a traffic accident |
