     Chicago is next to a big beautiful lake, Lake Michigan. In the summer Lake Michigan is warm and blue.
People lie on the beaches and swim in the water. In the winter Lake Michigan is cold and gray. Snow covers
the beaches, and ice covers the water.
     On a cold January day, a little boy and his father were playing in the snow on Chicago beach. The boy
was Jimmy Tontlewicz. He was four years old. Jimmy was playing with a sled (雪橇). He pushed the sled
down a small hill. The sled went onto the ice of Lake Michigan. Jimmy ran after the sled. He ran onto the ice.
Suddenly the ice broke, and Jimmy fell into the cold water. Jimmy's father jumped into the water. He couldn't
find Jimmy. Minutes went by. He still couldn't find Jimmy. Firemen arrived. Twenty minutes later they found
Jimmy and pulled him out of the water. Jimmy was not breathing, and his heart was not beating. He was dead.
At the beach paramedics (醫(yī)務(wù)輔助人員) worked on Jimmy for an hour. He began to breathe, and his heart
began to beat. The paramedics rushed Jimmy to the hospital.
     Doctors at the hospital put Jimmy in bed. They put him on a cold mattress (床墊) because they wanted his
body to warm up slowly. They gave him some medicine because they wanted him to sleep. After eight days in
the hospital, Jimmy woke up, but he couldn't walk or talk. So he went on staying in the hospital for six weeks.
Every day he got better. Then he went to another hospital. He stayed there for seven weeks. He began to walk,
talk, and play again.
     Jimmy was in the water for more than 20 minutes. He couldn't breathe in the water. He couldn't get any
oxygen. But today he is alive and healthy. How is it possible? Jimmy is alive because the water was ice cold.
Usually the brain (大腦) needs a lot of oxygen. But when it's very cold, the brain slows down. It doesn't need
much oxygen. So the ice cold water saved Jimmy. Jimmy's father has another reason. He says, "Jimmy is alive
today because he is a fighter (戰(zhàn)士)."
1. Which one is the right order according to the story?
a. Paramedics worked on Jimmy for an hour.
b. Jimmy began to walk, talk, and play again.
c. Jimmy fell into the cold water.
d. Jimmy was sent to the hospital quickly.
e. Jimmy woke up, but he couldn't walk or talk.
f. Firemen pulled Jimmy out of the water.
A. c-f-e-d-a-b
B. c-f-a-d-e-b
C. a-c-e-b-f-d
D. a-c-f-e-b-d
2. Why can Jimmy be alive according to the last paragraph?
A. Because he slept for a long time.
B. Because he is a fighter.
C. Because the water was ice cold.
D. Because he was sent to hospital quickly.
3. Which is the best title for the story?
A. A Dangerous Lake
B. A Strong Little Boy
C. How Proud the Father Is
D. How Clever the Doctors Are

     Dick was a twenty-year-old man. His father was a teacher and taught chemistry in a middle school and
his mother worked in a shop. They lived a happy life until his parents died one night when there was an
earthquake (地震). Luckily his sister had taken him to see their aunt in the city and they were not at home.
Everything was destroyed in the earthquake and the two children got into trouble. Thanks to their aunt, who
was not rich, they grew up but they lived a hard life. Dick's sister was so sad that she became a nun (修女).
After Dick finished middle school, he found a job in a hotel and began to work there.
     One day the young man fell to the ground while he was cleaning a window on the second floor. He was
sent to the hospital and the doctor looked him over. One of his legs was broken and he had to stay in hospital.
He said to the nurse, "I'm a poor man, madam. Arrange a third-class ward for me, please."
     "Can't any body help you?" she asked. 
     "No, madam," answered Dick. "I have only a sister. She's a nun and she's poor, too."
     "I don't think so," the nurse said angrily. "Nuns usually marry God. And God is the richest person in the
world, you know!"
     "Well, then," Dick said with a smile, "Please arrange a first-class ward for me and send the bill to my
brother-in-law (姐夫)."
