The sound that woke Damian Languell at 8: 15 in the morning was so loud he

assumed it came from inside his house in Wade, Maine. As he got up to investigate, he

heard another sound, this one coming most definitely from outside. Looking out of his

bedroom window he noticed a tree enveloped in smoke about 500 yards away. A car

wrapped around the tree's base, its engine on fire.

Grabbing buckets of water, he and his wife ran to the crash site. Up close, the

accident looked worse. The car was split nearly in two, and the tree was where the

driver’s seat ought to have been, as if planted there. No one should have survived this

crash, and yet there was 20-year-old Quintin Thompson, his terrified face pressed

against the driver’s side window, in visible pain.

Languell tried putting out the fire with his buckets of water but failed. When the

flames got into the front seats, he knew he had to get the young man out. So Languell

opened the car's back door and climbed in. Using a pocket knife he’d brought with him,

he cut through Thompson’s seat belt. Now that Thompson was free, Languell pulled him

out, and dragged him to safety before the entire car was in flames.

It is empathy that drove Languell to help, just as he said, "My heart goes out to

Thompson. When you are that close to that level of hurt, you feel it so directly. "For his

heroic action, Languell was added to the list of real-life heroes changing the world.

4. Where was the first sound actually from?

A. A house on fire B. A car crash.

C. The bedroom window D. The basement

5. What do we know about Quintin Thompson?

A. He saved his car from fire. B. He was successfully rescued.

C. He remained calm all the time. D. He was capable of helping himself out

6. Which of the following best explains "empathy" underlined in the last paragraph?

A. Honesty B Wisdom. C Sympathy D. Responsibility.

7. Which words can best describe Damian Languell?

A. Daring and generous B. Caring and grateful

C. Courageous and noble D. Ambitious and reliable.

Coral reefs( 珊瑚礁 )are an integral part of sea life and sustain it by providing

shelter and habitat to various organisms. They also supply and recycle nutrients as well

as enable a growing fish population, along with other species, for a healthy and diverse

ecosystem. However, the rise in average water temperatures due to climate change has

resulted in more frequent and longtime “coral bleaching(白化现象)” events that damage

their health, causing fish and other sea species to abandon them.

In order to restore this delicate ecosystem, scientists from the UK and Australia

conducted a study that involved using loudspeakers underwater near damaged coral

reefs to make them sound healthy and attract fish, potentially kick-starting the natural

recovery process of coral reefs and their dependent life forms. The location for this

experiment was the Great Barrier Reef in the coral Sea, found alongside the east coast

of Queensland, Australia. The site is noted to have the largest coral reef system in the

world.

“Healthy coral reefs are remarkably noisy places--the crackle of snapping shrimp

and the whoops and grunts of fish. Young fish concentrate on these sounds when they’re

looking a place to settle”, said Steve Simpson, study co-author and a professor at the

University Exeter, UK.

By using loudspeakers to copy such sounds, parts of dead coral reefs were found

to attract twice as many fish, compared to places where no sounds were played. "These

returning fish, are crucial for coral reefs to function as healthy ecosystems. Boosting

fish populations in this way could help to kick-start natural recovery processes,

preventing the damage we’re seeing on many coral reefs around the world,” said lead

author, Tim Gordon.

8. What causes the phenomenon of coral bleaching

A. Diverse species B. Noise pollution.

C. Fishing industry D Climbing temperatures.

9. What approach is introduced to recover the coral reefs?

A Removing damaged coral reefs B. Using loudspeakers to keep fish away

C. Building new homes for sea species. D Playing certain sounds to appeal to fish

10. Why are Steve Simpson's words quoted?

A. To provide some findings of the study.

B. To show the progress of the experiment.

C To explain reasons for the new approach.

D. To give another solution to the problem.

11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. The attempts are in vain. B. Natural recovery is impossible.

C Initial success has been achieved. D. The coral reefs have returned to normal.

As we reflect on the evolution of fitness over the centuries, and the emergence of a

well-organized and growing "fitness" market and industry, it is well to ask ourselves:

what have we lost, and what have we gained?

Obviously, much good has come out of these recent developments: there's

widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every community

has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand

more about how the human body works.

Yet despite the many health and fitness methods, programs, and resources, the

general population has never been so physically sedentary(久坐的 ) and out-of-shape.

A recent World Health Organization report indicates that life expectancy( 寿命 )in the

U.S. dropped for the first time since 1993. The health of modern people is declining,

despite highly advanced medical technologies and the booming health and fitness

industry.

How could that be? A large part of it is motivation. People are simply not as
