The two students were named Robert Kogler and Shirley ONeill. They headed out to sea for a distance of 50 metres. Robert was in front.“Suddenly, I heard him scream,” Shirley recalls. “I looked round and saw this great grey thing going up in the air. The water seemed to be alive.”Robert sereamed again. “Its a shark! Get out of here!”An eye witness, Army Sergeant Leo P. Day was on guard at the nearby army post. He saw exactly what happened next. “I could see this boy struggling with the shark in the water,” he said. “The sea was red with blood. He was shouting and signalling someone to go back, go back. Then I saw the girl. She was swimming towards him. She completely ignored his warning.”Shirley reached Robert, and tried to take his hand.“When I pulled, all I could see was his arm, handing by a thread,” she said. So she put her arm about Roberts back, and started to swim towards the shore. She kept praying “Dont let it attack again!” That journey to the shore seemed to last for hours. At last, as they neared the shore, a fisherman threw them a line, and pulled them both the rest of the way.The young man had lost a lot of blood, and died two and a half hours later, From the teeth marks, experts identified the attacker as a Great White Shark.For what Sergeant Day called “the greatest exhibition of bravery I have ever seen,” the President of the US gave Shirley a medal for bravery.56When Albert was attacked by a shark Shirley .Awas swimming in the seaBwas watching him on the shoreCwas on guard at the nearby army postDwas shouting and struggling with a shark, too57Choose the right time order of the following events in the story.a.

Students can choose clubs that focus on an area of interest.Mathcounts ClubMathcounts tries to increase excitement towards mathematic achievement. It hopes to provide students with the foundation for success in science, technology, engineering and mathematics careers. Schools select individuals and teams to participate in competitions. Local competitions are held in February with winners progressing to state competitions and then on to the national level. Mathcounts works to challenge student math skills, develop self-confidence and give rewards for their achievements.EnvirothonThe Envirothon program focuses on natural resources knowledge and exposes students to diverse environmental issues, ecosystems, and topography. The ecology field competition for five-member middle school teams offers competitions in wildlife, soils, forestry, current environmental issues and aquatics. Students work and learn in middle school clubs and can compete at the local and state level.Future Problem SolversFuture Problem Solvers is an academic club that uses a six-step process to solve problems that may happen in the future. Students who are in the talented and gifted program, who like to “think out of the box,” or who enjoy thinking about futuristic problems may like this club. Teams comprised of four students read future scenes and write up solutions in a booklet using the six-step process. Teams that score high enough can go to the state competition and then to the international competition.Builders ClubBuilders Club is open to any middle school student who wishes to perform community service. Each Builders Club is co-sponsored by a Kiwanis club and the middle school. The members learn by doing, and they learn organization, teamwork, and leadership. Builders Clubs can sponsor a Teacher of the Year program, provide a recycling collection point, organize canned food and clothing drives to support local shelters, adopt a resident at a local senior citizens home, adopt a highway, tutor, etc.Middle school academic clubs offer students a place to explore interests or talents. The clubs they join in middle school can help guide choices in high school and beyond. 59The students who are not interested in competitions woudld like to choose .AMathecounts ClubBBuilders ClubCFuture Problem SolversDEnvirothon60Why do some of the students choose Mathcounts Club?ATo be successful in science careers.BTo enjoy solving future problems.CTo perform community service.DTo study wildlife and soils.61What is the common feature of the four clubs?ACompetitions.BSponsorship.CScientific researches.DTeamwork.62The passage mainly talks about .Athe state academic competitions Bmiddle school clubsCextra curricular activitiesDthe gifted studentsCAt present, in many American cities expecially, many teachers in the public schools say they are underpaid. They point to jobs such as secretary or truck driver, which often pay more to start than that of a teacher. In many other fields, such as law, medicine, computer science, a beginning worker may make more than a teacher who has taught for several years.Teaching has never been a profession that attracted people interested in high salaries. It is by history a profession that has provided rewards in addition to moneythe satisfaction of sharing knowledge, of influencing others, of guiding young people. But in the past several years, there are more difficulties in teaching, for many, than there are rewards. Unruly students, especially in big cities, large classes and a lack of support from the public in terms of money and understanding have led many public school teachers to leave the profession.As a result, many of the best students, who would have chosen teaching as their life career in the past, are going into other fields.Another reason for this change in teacher candidates is the changing status of women in the United States. Until the late 1960s and 1970s, one of the most popular choices for women was teaching. But as other professions, such as law and medicine opened up to women, women stopped pouring into teacher training programs. Thus, a major pool of excellent candidates for the teaching profession dwindled.Bit by bit government officials and others realized that the status of the teacher had suffered. They talked about change. But the change in a vast society like the United States is not easy. Peoples attitudes have formed over many years, and sometimes change takes many years.63The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 1 refers to “ ”.AmoneyBjobCsecretaryDtruck driver64What is the present situation of the teaching?ATeachers work harder and get underpaid.BTeahcers have no opportunities to work in other fields.CTeaching can attract best students to work as a teacher.DTeaching can provide rewards as well as high salaries.65Many public school teachers turn to other professions because .Athe government doesnt finacially support themBthey have to work longer hours than a lawyerCtheir students refuse to listen to themDthey are not fairly treated66The author believes that change in teachers status in the United States .Ais not greatBis impossibleCinfluences peoples attitudeDneeds timeDWrting artieles about films for The Front Page was my first proper job. Before then I had done bits of reviewing - novels for other newspapers, films for a magazine and anything I was asked to do for the radioThat was how I met Tom Seaton, the first arts editor of The Front Page, who had also written for televisionHe hired me, but Tom was not primarily a journalist, or he would certainly have been more careful in choosing his staffAt first, his idea was that a team of critics should take care of the art forms that didnt require specialized knowledge: books, TV, theatre, film and radioThere would be a weekly lunch at which we would make our choices from the artistic material that Tom had decided we should cover, though there would also be guests to make the atmosphere sociableIt all felt like a bit of dream at that time: a new newspaper and I was one of the teamIt seemed so unlikely that a paper could be introduced into a crowded marketIt seemed just as likely that a millionaire wanted to help me personally, and was pretending to employ meSuch was my lack of self-confidenceToms original scheme for a team of critics for the arts never took offIt was a good idea, but we didnt get together as planned and so everything was done by phoneIt turned out, too, that the general public out there preferred to associate a reviewer with a single subject area, and so I chose filmWithout Toms initial push, though, we would hardly have come up with the present arrangement, by which I write an extended weekly piece, usually on one filmThe space I am given allows me to broaden my argument - or forces me, in an uninteresting week, to make something out of nothingBut what is my role in the public arena? I assume that people choose what films to go to on the basis of the stars, the publicity or the directorSo if a film review isnt really a consumer guide, what is it? I certainly dont feel I have a responsibility to be right
