Rescue workers at the San Jose gold and copper mine in northern Chile had reason to sing this week．A small hole drilled into the earth became a passage（通道） to freedom for thirty-three trapped miners．They spent sixty-nine days underground．"Never have people been trapped for so long so deeply," says a doctor at NASA, the American space agency, which helped in the rescue．

But the chief medical officer for the miners said most are in good enough health to leave the hospital within a day or so．The first three were released from the hospital Thursday night．

For much of the day the miners relaxed with Chilean President Sebastian Pinera．The thirty-two Chileans and one Bolivian still wore special sunglasses to protect their eyes．

A  partial mine collapse（坍塌） on 5th of August trapped them more than half a kilometer underground．They had to stretch a two-day food supply．For two weeks no one knew if they were alive or dead．

Later, they received supplies（供給） and a video link lowered through drill holes．That link was how Ariel Ticona watched his wife give birth to their daughter．

The miners have apparently agreed to share the money they earn from selling their story．

They have already received gifts of money and travel offers．Edison Pena has been invited to the New York City Marathon and to Graceland, the home of Elvis Presley in Memphis, Tennessee．Mr．Pena described how he ran in the mine tunnels to ease the stress．And he led the miners in singing Elvis songs．

The first miner rescued on Wednesday was Florencio Avalos．The second was Mario Sepulveda, who talked about how the experience tested his faith．He said: "I was with God and I was with the devil, they fought me, but God won．He took me by my best hand, the hand of God．"

The last miner up was Luis Urzua．He was the shift leader when his crew became trapped．

Rescuers used a metal cage to pull the miners to safety in less than twenty-four hours -- faster than expected．The rescue capsule was a half-meter wide and known as the Phoenix．

How many miners had been rescued according to the report?

A．Three        B．Sixty-nine           C．Thirty-three     D．Thirty-two

According to the passage, when the miners were trapped, some of them did the followings except ________．

A．sharing money                            B．Running to ease stress

C．Watching a video showing his wife giving birth  D．Singing songs

Edison Pena was invited to Graceland probably because ________________．

A．he ran in the mine tunnel．                 B．he prayed to God．

C．he led the miners in singing Elvis songs．     D．he was the shift leader．

From the passage, we can infer the followings EXCEPT that _______________．

A．Rescue workers were happy about their rescue work．

B．People felt surprised to find the miners safe and sound．

D．The trapped miners drilled a small hole themselves to escape．

Violin prodigies（神童）, I learned, have come in distinct waves from distinct regions. Most of the great performers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked Isaac Stern, one of the world’s greatest violinists, the reason for this phenomenon. “It’s very clear, “he told me. “They were all Jews and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill-treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to achieve excellence on a concert stage.” As a result, every Jewish parent’s dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West.

Another element in the emergence of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field and is able to nurture (培育) talent. Nowadays the most nurturing societies seem to be in the Far East. “In Japan, a most competitive society with stronger discipline than ours,” says Isaac Stern, “children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music. When Western music came to Japan after World War II, that music not only became part of their daily lives, but it became a discipline as well.” The Koreans and Chinese, as we know, are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.

That’s a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance plays an important role in the making of a prodigy. J. S. Bach, for example, was the top of several generations of musicians, and four of his sons had significant careers in music.

Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music school because ______.   

   A. it would allow them access to a better life in the West

   B. Jewish children are born with excellent musical talent

   C. they wanted their children to enter into the professional fields

   D. it would enable the family to get better treatment in their own country

Nurturing societies as mentioned in the passage refer to societies that ______.

   A. enforce strong discipline on students who want to achieve excellence

   B. treasure talent and provide opportunities for its full development

   C. encourage people to compete with each other

   D. promise talented children high positions

Japan is described in the passage as a country that attaches importance to ______.

   A. all-rounded development                  B. the learning of Western music

   C. strict training of children                  D. variety in academic studies

Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies according to the passage?

   A. A natural gift.                    B. Extensive knowledge of music.

   C. Very early training.                D. A prejudice-free society.

When I was 15, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my short-comings(缺點). Week by week her list grew. I was skinny(瘦的), I talked too loud, I was too proud, and so on. I put up with(忍受)her as long as I could. At last, I ran to my father in tears and anger. He listened to my outburst quietly. They he asked, “Are the things she says the true or not?”True? I wanted to know how to strike back. What did truth have to do with it?

“Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you are really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. ”Go and make a list of every thing she said and mark the points that are true. You needn’t pay attention to the other things she said.

I did as he told me and discovered to my surprise that about half the things are true. Some of them I couldn’t change(like being skinny), but a good number I could and suddenly wanted to change. For the time in my life I began to get a quiet clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Daddy, but he wouldn’t take it.“That’s just for you,”he said.“You know better than any else the truth about yourself, once you hear it. But you’ve got to learn to listen, not close your ears in anger or hurt. When someone says something about you, you’ll know if it’s true or not. If it is ,you’ll find it will echo(共鳴)inside you.”

“I still don’t think it very nice of her to talk about me in front of everybody.”

“Mary, there is one way you could stop others talking about you ever again, and criticizing(批評) you—just say nothing and do nothing. But then, if you do that, you’d find you were nothing. You wouldn’t like that now, would you?”“No, I admitted(承認(rèn))”

Temperature is part of my married romance.   36   to New York from Baltimore——where there is just one small snowstorm each year——I was seated by a fireplace in my new home, with fires   37   all day, just as what ancient people did at a wedding.

      My husband, Peter, comes from northern Ontario（加拿大的安大略省）, where winter   38   from September to May and cold wind is   39  . “When Canadians have -30℃, they   40   it bravely,” he says, “Cold wind is for crybabies.（愛哭的人）”

     So to marry this man I had to learn to   41   for serious cold. To get me from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor to Albany’s frozen Hudson, Peter piled me   42   jackets and sweaters, scarves and gloves, even a hat with earflaps. The gift of Sorel boots——comfortably warm at Canada’s 30 below, was a   43   meaning getting serious.

      That first winter together, living in upstate New York, I thought I’d   44  . My boots were good below freezing, but my fingers could   45   tie them.

But surprisingly, I’ve grown, too. I am   52   , in this new life and climate, to go and look for that cost-saving sweater.

      The word comfortable did not   53   refer to being satisfied. It’s from Latin, comfortare, meaning to strengthen. The Holy Spirit is Comforter；not to make us comfortable, but to make us   54   . We   55   not be warm but we are indeed comforted.
