The ninth week of SEAL(Sea, Air, Land) training is referred to as Hell Week. It is six days of no sleep, physical and mental suffering and one special day at the Mud Flats (泥沼)where you will sink into the mud.

It is on Wednesday of Hell Week that we came down to the mud flats and spend the next 15 hours trying to survive the freezing-cold mud, the cold wind and the strong pressure from the instructors to give up.

As the sun began to set that Wednesday evening, my training class, having broken some of the rules, was ordered into the mud. We sank into the mud until only our heads could be seen. The instructors told us we could leave the mud if only five men would give up—just five men and we could get out of the cold.

Looking around the mud flat, it was clear that some of us were about to give up. It was still over eight hours till the sun came up--eight more hours of coldness. Our cries were so loud that it was hard to hear anything. And then, one voice began to fly through the night--one voice raised in song.

The song sounded terrible, but it was sung with great power. One voice became two, and two became three, and before long everyone in the class was singing.

We knew that if one man could rise above the suffering then others could as well. The instructors warned us of more time in the mud if we kept up the singing—but the singing went on and on. And somehow, the mud seemed a little warmer, the wind a little weaker and the morning not so far away.

If I have learned anything in my time traveling the world, it is the power of hope. The power can change the world by giving people hope.

So, if you want to change the world, start singing when you're up to your neck in mud.

1.What did the writer experience during Hell Week?

A. He suffered sleeplessness for one day.

B. Because the weather was terribly bad.

C. Because the instructors were strict with them.

D. Because they wanted to break the rules.

3.What did the class do when they were in the mud?

A. Five of them gave up.

B. They cried all the time.

C. Someone sang from the beginning.

D. Everybody joined in the singing.

4.What is probably the author’s job?

A. A terrorist.

B. A soldier.

“Annabel, I think there is a bear in our house,” I shouted up the stair. She didn’t hear me properly. “There is a what?” she shouted back. “You’ve found a chair in the house?” I cleared my throat and said again, as calmly as possible, “I think there is a bear in the house.” If there is a world speed record for repacking a backpack and leaving a building, Annabel must be a competitor, for we were outside the building within seconds.

Annabel and I had already spent three days walking 80 kilometers over the mountains from the Pacific. We were in Canada’s Yukon Territory, heading towards Car cross, on the shore of Lake Bennett. Here our boat was waiting where we had left it the week before. Our plan then was to boat down the 3,000 kilometers of Yukon River to the Bering Sea.

On this day, we were walking the last 48 kilometers towards Car cross, following a disused railway line. You had to keep an eye out for black bears, whose presence was obvious from the huge piles of dung(糞便)that littered the tracks.

As the day drew on, we started to look for somewhere to sleep. We finally found an old railway building, which looked as if it might keep us safe from bears. Though the windows and doors had large scratch and chew marks, they were covered with boards and looked safe. Annabel went upstairs and started to unpack and settle in while I looked around downstairs.

I was moving around in what was once clearly a kitchen, when, from out of a darkened doorway that I took to the storeroom, came a soft but unusual deep moan(呻吟). My curiosity raised, I started to walk towards the slightly opne door. I was halfway across the room when a low rough sound came out of the darkness and the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. My natural ability was to ruin. I backed out of the room, my eyes staring at the dark doorway. We thought it might be a better idea to spend the night elsewhere.

We got up early in our small tent in the morning. The night’s sleep had been all right except when a little troubled by dreams of bears. But our mood rose with the sun. We were walking along, relaxing with each step and looking forward to a big lunch at Car cross.

Crossing a small wooden bridge, we left the rail tracks to have a drink. As we returned, Annabel cried out “Stop!” Looking up, I saw a familiar black shape behind us: another black bear was following us, moving up slowly from behind, and then disappearing rapidly into the trees when we turned to face it. How long it had been following us, we could not say.

1.What can you know from the first paragraph?

A. Annabel set a world speed record.

B. The author was calmer than Annabel.

C. Annabel’s hearing was so poor that she couldn’t hear any sounds.

D. The two girls ran out of the house at high speed for fear of the bear.

2.What is the author and Annabel’s final destination?

A. The Pacific

B. Yukon Territory

C. Car cross

D. The Bering sea

3.Which is TURE about the old railway building according to the passage?

A. Trains pass here along the railway track.

B. Bears might have come and gone around here.

C. It was really a safe place to play and sleep in.

D. A rough sound could be heard from the kitchen.
