Alex Palmer says he'll never forget his 13th birthday, not because of a gift or a party, but fire. “It made me
realize how valuable life is,” said Alex, a seventh grader atMonroeDemonstrationSchoolinTulsa,Oklahoma.
On April 18, Alex and many other kids from his school were riding home on a school bus when they suddenly
saw smoke coming from the bus’ engine. “It was jaw-dropping,” he told reporters.
By the time Alex and some other kids made it out the bus’ back door, the bus was already on fire. And some
of their schoolmates were still inside. So he and some of the other older kids took action.
“One little kid was slowing everyone down with his big backpack, ” eighth grader Destiny Fain said, “so I got it
off and threw it to the side and helped to make sure all the little kids weren’t fighting or pushing. ”
As that was going on, sixth grader Marketez Doyle-Smith reportedly helped another classmate who had
trouble in breathing because of the smoke. “We saw our friend lying on the ground,” he said, “so we took our
shirts off and waved them to get him some air to breathe.”
Marketez also reportedly stopped a younger kid trying to get back on the bus to search for something he’d
left behind. “We're all a family,” he told reporters. “So I went back to help the little kid.”
Finally everyone made it off safely, thanks to Alex, Destiny, Marketez and several other kids. By later that day,
they were already being called heroes. “I really don’t see it as being a hero,” Alex said, according to The World. “I
see it as the right thing to do—helping others before you help yourself.”

Why doesHaitiso tend to have fatal earthquakes? Earthquakes have been causing huge damage inHaitisince
at least the 18th century. The capital city has been destroyed twice in 19 years. The 21st century has beenno more
kind.
The Earth’s outer shell is made tip of tectonic plates (构造板块) that move.Haitisits near the crossing of two
tectonic plaits that make up the Earth’s outer shell. Earthquakes can occur when those plates move against each
other and create friction (摩擦力).
Haitiis also overpopulated. Plus, many of its buildings are designed to resist hurricanes but not earthquakes.
Those buildings can survive strong winds bat are easy to fail down when the ground shrikes. Poor building
practices can also play arole.
“I think it’s important to recognize that there’s no such thing as a natural disaster,” said Wendy Bohon, a
geologist. “What you have is a natural disaster that comes with a weak architecture system. We do know that
earthquakes like this can cause huge damage because ofthefault,” said Wendy. “And it’s quite a significant risk in
places that don’t have the construction practices to resist the shaking.”
Construction of more earthquake-resistant buildings remains a challenge inHaiti, which is the poorest nation
in theWestern Hemisphere. “While there have been some success stories of Haitians building more
earthquake-resistant structures, the country has lacked a centralized effort to do so,” said Mark Schuller, a
professor of anthropology and nonprofit and NGO studies atNorthernIllinoisUniversity.Haiti’s government has
become increasingly weak, while non-governmental organizations only focus on their own projects.
“There is technical knowledge inHaiti, There are trained architects. There are cityplanners. That’s not the
problem,” Schuller said. “The problem is a lack of funding for coordination (协调), and lack of political will from
donors to organizations providing aid.”
4. Which factor causing the huge damage is highlighted?
A. Its overpopulation. B. Its weak government.
C. Its geographical location. D. Its weak architecture system.
5. What does the underlined part “the fault” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A Lacking political will to provide aid.
B. Lacking hurricane-resistant; buildings.

society, become innovative leaders, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great

There have been many great painters in the rich history of Chinese art. Here are four of the greatest painters
from China.
Li Cheng (919—967, Five Dynasties and early Song Dynasty)
Li Cheng contributed greatly to one of the golden ages of landscape paintings in world history. During his time,
he was considered the best landscape painter ever. He is remembered especially for the winter landscapes he
created and for simple compositions of tall, old evergreens set against a dry landscape. Several of his paintings are
in thin ink which gives them a foggy appearance.

chose to eat in the garden which was full of beautiful flowers and very relaxing．The only disappointment was the
dessert — the apple piewas far too sweet and it was cold too．Apart from that it was an enjoyable evening．As for

The best thing about Park Inn was the service — it was excellent．There was a warm welcome when we
arrived and the waiters were very helpful all evening．However，the food wasn’t as good．The menu looked
interesting but the meals were rather tasteless．It’s not a cheap restaurant and I wasn’t happy to pay so much for
