A year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift－$7,000,a legacy(遺產(chǎn)) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. “It really made a difference when we were going under financially(經(jīng)濟(jì)上),” says Dave.

But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches’ generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in others, it was more than $100,000.

It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than $3 million—they were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.

Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They thrived on(喜歡) comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices before buying something.

    Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn’t afford it. “Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything.” says their friend Sandy Van Weelden. “They could see things they could do to make you happier and they would do them.”

Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches had their farmland distributed(分送). It was the Hatches’ wish that their legacy—a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cents —should enrich the whole community (社區(qū)) and last for generations to come.

    Neighbors helping neighbors—that was Ish and Arlene Hatch’s story.

64. According to the text, the Fusses ____________.

A. were employed by a truck company           B. worked in a school cafeteria

C. were in financial difficulty                               D. lost their home

65. Which of the following is true of the Hatches?

   A. They gave away their possessions to their neighbors.

   B. They left the family farm to live in an old house.

   C. They had their children during the Great Depression. 

D. They helped their neighbors to find jobs.

66. Why would the Hatches routinely go from store to store?

   A. They decided to open a store.                          B. They wanted to save money.

   C. They couldn’t afford expensive things  .        D. They wanted to buy gifts for local kids.

67. According to Sandy Van Weelden, the Hatches were _________.

   A. mean                        B. childlike                           C. curious                            D. understanding

Have you ever heard anyone say “It’s raining cats and dogs”? It means “It’s raining hard!”

 But sometimes cats and dogs do drop from the sky! Here’s how it happens.

    Not so long ago, a country far away had many large rats. The people there said, “ We need cats!” So cats were sent to them by airplane. But the country had many mountains. It was hard for an airplane to land. So the cats came down by parachute(降落傘). Did the cats like the ride? They didn’t say they didn’t! And today they are still catching rats!

    In another country far away, there is snow the year around. People sometimes got lost in it.

   “We need big dogs!” the people said, “The dogs could find people lost in the snow. The dogs could help bring them home. Where can we get big dogs?”

   A man across the sea had big dogs to sell. “I will send dogs to you,” he said. “ I have some very big ones. They can find people lost in the snow.”

   He sent the dogs by airplane.

   But the airplane did not land in the snow. The dogs came down by parachute ---- you guessed it !

   Did the dogs like the ride? They didn’t say they didn’t! And today they are well and happy.

They find anyone who gets lost in the snow. Then they help him get home. Good dogs!

   Remember it, so you can say, “ Yes, it does rain cats and dogs sometimes. They came down by parachute!”
