With at least a dozen wildfires going through western North Carolina in the fall of 2016, it would take more than one local fire department to fight the flames. In early November, the federal government sent over a team of firefighters from the Interagency Hotshot Crews.

Most of the Hotshots stayed at Hinton Rural Life Center in Hayesville, North Carolina. The center reached out to the media and community groups, hoping to get four volunteers per day to help things run smoothly for their firefighting guests. They didn’t expect a response quite so unbelievable.

Within two days, over 200 people—about a third of the town’s population—reached out to offer help, according to the center’s website. Meals and accommodation were already being taken care of, so they went above and beyond the basic things. Community members donated over 1,000 goods, including sports drinks, snacks, eye drops and so on.

Even the kids in Hayesville participated, sending thank-you cards, pictures and signs to motivate the Hotshots. The team received over 2,000 thank-you notes. After the fires were put out and the firefighters were preparing to go home, the town threw a parade(游行)to thank them and wish them well.

The firefighters were at a loss by the generosity from Hayesville. They put together their own thank-you in a YouTube video.

“You guys don’t know how much you mean, all the support you guys give us, ’’ says Ron, a firefighter from Oregon, in the video. “Out of four years when I’ve been fighting fire, this is about the most hospitable(好客的)state and county I’ve ever been in. And it brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.”

1.What is unexpected according to the text?

A. The difficulty in putting out wildfires.

B. The firefighters’ contributions to the town.

C. The locals’ attitude towards the center’s request.

D. The firefighters’ response to the wildfires.

2.What can we know about Hayesville from the text?

A. It is a large town.

B. It is a small town.

C. It is a wealthy town.

D. It’s tough to live in.

3.Why are even the kids in Hayesville mentioned in the text?

A. To show how cute they were.

B. To encourage the firefighters to be grateful.

C. To lead in the reason for creating the YouTube video.

D. To stress the locals’ enthusiasm for the firefighters.

4.What can we infer about the firefighters from the last paragraph?

A. They felt very moved.

B. They were kind to the locals.

C. They were welcome everywhere.

D. They were confident about their work.

 

1. C 2. B 3. D 4. A 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了消防员在海斯维尔灭火,当地人用自己的方式表示感谢,消防员非常感动。 1.推理判断题。答案定位在第二段They didn’t expect a response quite so unbelievable.可知当地人对中心要求的态度是出人意料的,故选C。 2.推理判断题。答案定位在第三段Within two days, over 200 people—about a third of the town’s population—reached out to offer help, according to the center’s website. 根据该中心的网站,两天之内,超过200人(约占该镇人口的三分之一)伸出援助之手。由此推断出Hayesville是一个小城镇,故选B。 3.推理判断题。答案定位在倒数第三段Even the kids in Hayesville participated, sending thank-you cards, pictures and signs to motivate the Hotshots.(甚至连海斯维尔的孩子们也参与其中,发送感谢卡、照片和标语来激励这些能人。)可推知提到海斯维尔的孩子们,是为了强调当地人对消防员的热情,故选D。 4.推理判断题。答案定位在最后一段“Out of four years when I’ve been fighting fire, this is about the most hospitable(好客的)state and county I’ve ever been in. And it brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.”(在我与火灾搏斗的四年中,这是我所到过的最好客的州和县。一想到它,我就热泪盈眶。)由此推断出消防员非常感动,故选A。
