AOn a sunny day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to searchfor a football. Once they'd rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves."Everything went quiet in my head," Tim recalls . "I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line."Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. "At one point, I considered turning back," he says. "I wondered if I was putting my life at risk." After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, "Take down the umbrella!"Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him."Let's aim for the pier (码头)," Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. "Can you guys swim?" he cried. "A little bit," the boys said.Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys' faces.“Are we almost there?" they asked again and again. "Yes," Tim toldthem each time.21. After 30minutes, they reached the pier. Why did the two boys go to the sea?A. To go boat rowing.B. To swim in the open water.C. To get back their football.D.

Why did Tim raise his head regularly?A.To check his distance from the boys.B.To consider turning back or not.C.To take in enough fresh air.D.To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.24. How did the two boys finally reach the pier?A. They were carried to the pier by Tim on his back.B. They swam to the pier all by themselves.C. They were washed to the pier by the waves.D. They were dragged to the pier by Tim.BWelcome to Arundel Castle which is situated in West Sussex, England.

Even if they're just microbes(微生物), it will be pretty exciting."Obama also said he was impressed by the attention that's been paidto flight director Bobak Ferdowsi, the "Mohawk Guy" whose star-spangled haircut and warmhearted behavior during Curiosity's Aug. 5 landing won him Internet fame."I, in the past, thought about getting a Mohawk myself," Obama joked. "But my team keeps on discouraging me. And now that he's received marriage proposals and thousands of new Twitter followers, I think I'm going to go back to my team and see if it makes sense."The congratulatory phone call is a tradition for the White House. But it was clear that Obama particularly enjoyed congratulating the scientists and engineers behind the amazingly successful landing of NASA's newest Mars exploration.He also said the achievement reflected the American spirit, and he gave his personal promise to protect these critical investments in science and technology."This is the kind of thing that inspires kids across the country," he said. "They’re telling their moms and dads they want to be part of a Mars mission, maybe even the first person to walk on Mars. And that kind of inspiration is the byproduct of work of the sort that you guys have done."The Curiosity rover's $2.5 billion mission focuses on studying billions of years' worth of geology on Mars and determining whether the planet was ever potentially suitable for people to live in. The mission is not specifically designed to explore life, even on the range ofmicrobes, but it could point the way for future life-exploration experiments.28.Obama phoned the team behind NASA's Mars Curiosity rover in order to_______.A. congratulate them on finding MartiansB. praise the flight directorC. congratulate on the rover’s landingD. encourage them to contact with Martians29.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2 ?A.

What she saw there made her stop dead in her tracks.Being a busy college student just one year removed from her teenage years, she wasn’t exactly obsessive-compulsive(有强迫观念和行为的) about the neatness of her clothes. But her boss at the restaurant where she works saw things a little differently. He had recently lectured the entire staff on the importance of appearance, and had specifically mentioned the need for servers to wear clean, unwrinkled blouses. As an assistant manager, Janelle felt it was important to set an example to the other employees. But if she stopped to iron the blouse normally, she would be late —and work without delay was an area of even greater concern to her boss.So she grabbed her iron and plugged it in and set it for low heat. Carefully holding her blouse away from her body, she continued to iron it while she was wearing it. It seemed like a logical answer to an urgent problem.And it seemed to be working until Janelle tried to iron the collar and accidentally ironed her neck by mistake. Then it suddenly seemed like a really stupid idea and a really painful one as well. It took more time to treat her burn than it would have taken to iron her shirt properly.And she spent a miserable shift dealing with the pain of the burn.We’ve all been there, haven’t we? For me it was cutting my own hair. For a former roommate it was trying to pull his own wisdom teeth. For another college acquaintance, it was trying to change the oil in his car while the motor was still running.“There’s a right way and a wrong way of doing things,” Dad used to tell me whenever I’d spoil the look of our yard by trying out a faster, easier and more creative way of pulling weeds or edging the lawn. “If a thing is worth doing,” he said, “it’s worth doing it right.” There’s a reason why certain things are done in certain ways. Those old, boring, predictable ways work.32.Jenelle found in the mirror that __________.A. there were stains on her blouseB. her blouse was wrinkledC. she wore heavy makeupD. she put on a wrong blouse33.It’s learned from Paragraph 2 that______________.A. Jenelle had no sense of responsibility at workB. Jenelle failed to set an example to employees in daily workC. Jenelle didn’t care about the neatness of her clothes at allD. Jenelle’s boss put doing something on time above appearance34.What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?A. We all have done loads of things like Janelle.B. We are careful enough in daily life.C. We all have done something creative.D. We all have tried to iron clothes while we are wearing them.35.What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph ?A. Be creative.B.
