Larry Ritsema was out for an early morning jog around his neighborhood one day. On a quiet street, he began to feel weak. Suddenly, everything went black. Larry fell to the ground.

Less than a minute later, Tom Alguire passed by on his bicycle. He caught sight of a man lying on the roadside, so he jumped off his bike and ran over. He recognized Larry immediately, because he had been Larry’s doctor for nearly 20 years.

Dr. Tom felt for a pulse (脈搏) at first. Finding none, he began to give Larry first aid. It wouldn’t restart Larry’s heart, but it would keep the blood flowing until someone else arrived. Tom could only hope someone would come by soon, at around six o’clock in the morning on a holiday weekend. Tom couldn’t stop pressing Larry’s chest to run for help — Larry’s brain cells would die without the blood. And Tom didn’t have a cell phone with him.

Soon, a car did drive by. But the driver ignored Tom’s appeal for help. What was he going to do? Tom was very worried. Finally, another car came down the road, driven by Michael Saliot, a U.S. Coast Guard Officer. Michael wasn’t one to pass up a chance to help a person in need. He quickly dialed 911.

Doctors then found that Larry had suffered a heart attack and there were severe blockages in two of Larry’s major arteries (動脈). Only the timely arrival of Dr. Tom saved his life.

How did Dr. Tom happen to be bicycling that morning, down that quiet street? It turned out that as Tom rode, his bike chain fell off. He spent about eight minutes fitting it back; otherwise, he would have seen nothing of Larry’s problem.

1.Doctor Tom gave Larry first aid in order to _____.

A. wake up Larry

B. keep Larry’s blood flowing

C. restart Larry’s pulse

D. stop Larry from bleeding

2.Why didn’t Tom call 911 for help?

A. He couldn’t stop pressing Larry’s chest.

B. He didn’t take a cell phone with him.

C. He was so nervous that he forgot to do it.

D. He was waiting for someone else for help.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A. Larry Ritsema went to work early by bike that morning.

B. Tom Alguire saw Larry when Larry fell to the ground.

C. Michael Saliot was a man always ready to help others.

D. Tom fitted his bike chain back after Larry was sent to hospital.

4.According to the last paragraph, which of the following words can be used to describe Larry in his incident?

A. Surprising B. Tragic C. Smart D. Lucky

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2 has set new nationwide and global box-office records for ticket sales in its opening weekend. The final part of the Harry Potter series is creating the perfect storm of record-breaking box-office sales. Before this movie, The Dark Knight held the opening weekend record. The Dark Knight actually sold a few more tickets. But with 3D and IMAX ticketing as well as the passion of fans who have waited for a long time to see the ending of J.K. Rowling’s brilliant story, the final Harry Potter movie was going to be hugely successful, no mater what.

And as if film-makers were magically able to save the best for last, critics(評論家) completely agree that The Deathly Hallows, Part 2 is the best film of the entire series and there has been little negative(負面的) to say about the performances of the film’s stars. When they were 10 or 11 years old, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint have grown up on the big screen. They grew in their character as the story was told through the years.

As the story draws to a close, the final Harry Potter film is set to break the $1 billion mark in worldwide sales. And even though the film series is finally over, J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter will live on in different forms of merchandising (附帶產品), including major theme parks, action figures and almost certainly, various versions of the story.

1.According to the author, we know Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2________.

A. was expected to be very successful in making money

B. was poorly received by most of the movie critics in the US

C. is not as good as the first several Harry Potter movies

D. is not as good as movie-goers expected.

2.What is implied about the performances of the film’s stars?

A. The performances are disappointing.

B. The stars have done a very good job.

C. The stars haven’t made a breakthrough

D. The stars did much better before.

3.In which part of a newspaper would you most probably read this passage?

A. Entertainment B. Education

C. Lifestyle D. Kids

4.What would be the best title for this passage?

A. The Harry Poter movies come to an end at last.

B. The Last Harry Poter movie sets new box-office records.

C. The Last Harry Poter movie comes in 3D and IMAX

D. The Last Harry Poter movie makes movie-goers sad.

Many years ago,when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver,I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City,where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款臺),I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off,but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city,and when I got out of the car,the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank?you note for helping me. Soon afterward,I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

Years later,I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon,I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day,and the battery(電池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom. “Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment,so when I got home,I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you,and it meant a lot,he said.

“Thank you”—two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.
