On a stormy day last August, Tim heard someone shouting. Looking at the sea carefully, he saw that two kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea. Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, had rowed out in a boat to recover 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 boys were terrified and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control. Tim knew that it would soon be swallowed by the waves. “Everything went quiet in my head,” Tim recalls. “I’m 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 shout to the boys, “Take down the umbrella!” “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 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 told them each time. After 30 minutes, they reached the pier. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。 1.When did the story happen? A.On a holiday. B. On a stormy day. C. At a weekend. D.

Dogs have long been regarded as a loyal（忠实的） friend of humans. They are not only a good companion to their owners, but also a security guard in some way. However, in fact, dogs do more things than just that. Recently, a British middle school has invited a dog to the classroom. Why? For fun? For security? Or for experiments? Flossie, a ten-month-old poodle, says “No” to all the above guesses. He is there to help increase students’ reading confidence. It is a little hard to believe, but it’s real. Vice-headmaster Sue Frost is responsible for training and taking care of the dog. She said, “Flossie has a great influence on students. They are willing to read for him. This is really a good way for students to learn more new words and make new progress.” Flossie is quite popular among students. Jacob Wicks, an 11-year-old schoolboy, entered the school last November. He said, “I think Flossie is a lovely dog. He always listens to me quietly when I am reading. There is no need for me to worry about negative comments if I don’t read well.” Another student named Jordan Leatherhead said that he liked reading Guinness world Records for Flossie, and that Flossie like listening to him because there are many records about dogs and other animals in the book. Wow! This is really an interesting teaching method. Why not have a try if you have a pet dog at home? 根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。 1.What do we know about Flossie? A.He is a 11-year-old schoolboy. B.He is a 10-month-old dog. C.He is good at reading books. D.He is a vice-headmaster in a middle school. 2.What can Flossie do? A.He can read books for the students. B.He can go to school with the students. C.He can take care of the students. D.He can raise the students’ reading confidence. 3.Why did Jacob Wicks like reading for Flossie? A.Because they are good friends. B.Because Flossie liked reading. C.Because he felt relaxed when reading for him. D.Because he wanted to teach him how to read. 4.What does the underlined word “influence” mean in Chinese? A.影响 B. 兴趣 C. 满意 D. 安全 5. What does the passage mainly talk about? A.Dogs are loyal friends for humans. B.Dogs are good companion to their owners. C.Dogs are helpful for making reading interesting and effective. D.Dogs are useful for people to make experiments.
