3.Passage Two"Yes, I'll be ready at nine in the morning. Goodbye, dear, and thanks again. "It had not been an easy telephone call for Mrs. Robson to make. Her daughter had been very kind, of course, and had immediately agreed to pick her up and drive her to the station, but Mrs. Robson hated to admit (承认) that she needed help. Since her husband had died ten years before, she had prided herself on her independence (独立生活 ). She had continued to live in their little house, alone.On this evening, however, she was standing at her living-room window, staring out at the SOLD notice in the small front garden. Her feelings were mixed. Naturally she was sad at the thought of leaving the house, as it was full of so many memories. But at the same time she was looking forward to spending her last years near the sea, back in the little seaside town where she had been born. With the money from the sale (出售) of the house, she had bought a little flat there.She turned from the living room window, and looked round at the room. One or two pieces of furniture remained, covered with sheets (被单). The floor was bare boards, and all her pictures had been taken from the walls. There was a small fish-tank, with two goldfish circling in it. When asked why, her husband used to say, "It's nice to have something alive in the room." Since he had passed away, she had always kept some goldfish, had always had "something alive in the room".Tim next morning, as her train was pulling out of the station, Mrs. Robson called to her daughter, "Kate, you won't forget to collect the goldfish, will you? The children will love them. It's...""I know," Kate interrupted (打断) gently. "It's nice to have something alive in the room."But in the little house, the two goldfish had stopped their circling. They were floating (漂浮) on the water, in the room with its bare boards and silent walls.40. Mrs. Robson ______.A. was a very proud personB. was helplessC. did not like asking people for favorsD. wanted to live without her husband

    All the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition:to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping.For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised.It said:“Remember,once a week,one of our customers gets free goods.This May Be Your Lucky Day!”

  • 第10题:

    Lisa was running late.Lisa,25,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way:her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs,she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn′t been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
    Several yards away,Frank,43,and his girlfriend,Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the.train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
    But when he heard the scream,followed by someone yelling,"Oh,my God,she fell in!"Frank didn′t hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!Not you!"his girlfriend screamed after him.
    She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa,he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
    It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
    Lisa thought she′d been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn′t,and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
    Police and fire officials soon arrived,and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,"she explained.

    How did Frank save Lisa?

    A.By lifting her to the platform.
    B.By helping her rise to her feet.
    C.By pulling her along the ground.
    D.By dragging her away from the edge.

    答案:A
