【題目】Don Ritchie, a famous Australian man. For nearly 50 years, he successfully stopped 160 people from killing themselves at a cliff(懸崖) called ‘the Gap’ – with just a kind word and a smile.

Ritchie had served in the Royal Australian Navy during World War II. In 1964, he moved into a house on Old South Head Road. He began saving strangers soon after.

Ritchie was a real gentleman who purposely chose to live right across the street from ‘the Gap’, just because he wanted to continue saving lives. He would wake up every morning and look out of the window for anyone standing too close to the edge of the cliff. If he saw someone and thought they might jump, he would simply walk over with a smile and say, “Is there something I could do to help you?” That sounds very simple, but it worked – Ritchie tried to have a talk with these people and ended up inviting them back to his house for tea or breakfast.

In 2006, Ritchie was given the Medal of the Order of Australia for all his saving lives. In 2010, he and his wife were named Woollahra Council’s citizens of the year and in 2011, he was given the Local Hero Award for Australia by the National Australia Day Council.

In a situation where most would turn a blind eye, Don has taken action. With such simple actions Don has saved a number of lives. Don’s story touched the hearts of all Australians and challenged us to rethink what it means to be a good neighbor.

A. American. B. Canadian.

C. Australian. D. Britain.

【2】Why did he choose to live right across the street from ‘the Gap’?

A. Because he wanted to be proud of himself.

B. Because he wanted to continue saving lives.

C. Because he would like to talk with strangers.

D. Because he would like to enjoy the view outside.

【3】When was he given the Local Hero Award for Australia?

A. In 1964. B. In 2006.

C. In 2010. D. In 2011.

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A. It’s important for him to get these prizes.

B. He saved people through giving them money.

In 1971 , a poor young man was traveling across the country , trying to make a new start for himself . On the way, he had completely run out of 【1】 , so he had no food to eat and had to live in his car.

This continued until one morning. After a week of sleeping in his car , he walked into a restaurant and ordered a big breakfast . After eating his first good meal in weeks, he found he had to 【2】 to the waiter, telling him he had lost his wallet . He was so embarrassed that his face turned red. The waiter, also the owner, walked behind the young man’s seat. He bent down（彎腰）, and stood up 【3】 a $20 bill in his hand . It seemed as if it had fallen on the floor. “Son, you must have dropped this . ” the owner said . The young man was so 【4】 that he couldn’t believe his eyes ! He quickly 【5】 for the breakfast and headed west.

【題目】Today there are more fires than in the past . Over 100,000 wildfires burn each year in America . Russia has 20,000 to 35,000 wildfires and Australia has about 60,000 each year. These fires destroy（損害）huge areas of forests and burn hundreds of homes .

Many experts believe there are several reasons for this sudden increase in fires. The first reason is climate（氣候）change . In 2010, Russia had the hottest and driest summer with strong winds in a century. In just one month, 500 fires destroyed over 2,000 homes. Some people lost their lives .

Traditional fire-fighting practices are another reason for the increase in fires. In America, firefighters used to quickly put out every fire as quickly as they could. They didn’t allow the grass and trees to burn. As a result , today many forests have thicker vegetation（植被）which provides more fuel（燃料）for fires . So surprisingly, America has many more fires today partly because of its past fire-fighting practices.

Scientists now understand that a fire can be a natural part of a healthy forest. As a result, countries like Australia allow some fires to burn naturally. The fire makes old trees thinner. This allows sunlight to reach the ground. As a result, fires help new trees to grow. Therefore , if a fire is not a serious threat（威脅）to people , firefighters may let it burn naturally .

【1】Russia had so many fires in one month in 2010 because __________ .

A. lightening spread the fire

B. there was much fuel for fires

C. there were not enough firefighters

D. it was very hot , dry and windy

【2】__________ because of the traditional fire-fighting practices in the USA .

A. There are fewer wildfires

B. There are more fires today

C. The weather becomes warmer and drier

D. Trees and grass become thinner

【3】 The main idea of Paragraph 4 is that __________ .

A. fires are serious threats to human beings

B. Australian firefighters don’t put out fires

C. fires can play an important role in forests

D. it’s difficult for firefighters to control the fires

【4】 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ?

A. Two reasons for the increase in fires are mentioned.

B. Russia has the hottest and driest forest.

C. Australia allows all the fires to burn naturally.

D. There are more fires in Russia than in the USA.
