Gabriel Garcia Mrquez ,who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1982，passed away at the age of 86 on April 17，2014. The world paused to remember the cultural giant(巨匠). Garcia Mrquez was born in Colombia, but he spent most of his adult life in Mexico City. As one of the most famous writers, he was widely regarded as “a giant of 20th-century literature”. Garcia Mrquez wrote in a style called “magical realism ”(魔幻现实主义). In such works, people live a daily life in a certain period of time in history. But meanwhile, magical things happen to them. Garcia Mrquez is best known for his 1967 novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude (百年孤独),which has sold about 50 million copies. It tells the tale of the small and isolated town of Macondo which was separated from the outside world of its founding and its troubled history over a hundred years.

Emergencies (紧急情况) dont happen very often. But when they do, you want to get help first. No one wants to spend time looking up the phone numbers. In 1968, the United States government wanted one number that people could call for emergencies. They decided that 911 was easy to remember and people could dial it quickly. The very first 911 call was made on February 16, 1968, in Alabama. Today, 911 is used for emergencies in most parts of the United States and many parts of Canada. Other countries may use other numbers. In Great Britain, its 999. If youre not sure which emergency number is used in your area, check your phone book. When to call Never call 911 as a joke or just to see what might happen. The only time you should call 911 is when a person is badly hurt or in danger right now! So call when there is a fire, a car accident, or sudden sickness, etc. When in an emergency call When you dial the 911 operator（接线员），its always OK to give out your information. Speak slowly and clearly when you explain whats happening. What happened? Where are you? Who needs help? Dont hang up（挂断）! If you have to call 911, do not hang up until the operator tells you its OK to do so. That way, you can be sure that the operator has all the information to offer help fast.

A. a bus hits a boy badly B. a girl feels bored C. an old lady falls off the stairs, unable to stand up D. some people cant get out of a burning building 4. Which is the right thing to do? A.
