Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea. Two 12yearold boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once theyd rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into the open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control. Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves. “Everything went quiet in my head，”Tim recalled (回忆)“I was 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 yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella！”Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him. “Lets 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 guys 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.1Why did the two boys go to the sea?Ato go boat rowing.Bto get back their football.Cto swim in the open water.Dto test the umbrella as a sail.2What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?Athe beach.Bthe water.

We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The streams were long gone back into the earth. If we didnt see some rain soon we would lose everything.I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He was obviously walking with a great effort. trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house.Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey. He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked; being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw the most amazing site.Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boys hand.I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life. As the tears that.rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops. and more drops. and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, Himself, was weeping with pride. 26.

Unfortunately, gang culture can be found in many British schools, and it brings with it negative, and dangerous, side effects. The presence of weapons at or near school, the appearance of graffiti on buildings and lockers, and pressure to blow off school work and exams all follow where the gangs lead. None of these things contribute to a good education, but for school gangs thats exactly the point - school is for being popular and having fun, not learning anything or preparing for the future. Keep these tips in mind and say goodbye to school gangs.Know your own mind. Often it is those with low self-esteem and a poor self-image who become victims of school gangs. These students dont know their own mind or have a clear picture of what they would like to do in the future, so it is easy to be influenced by those who dont want to do any work today.Keep yourself busy. School gangs often hang around at or near schools with no real reason. Students who have nothing scheduled can easily be sucked into these groups, but if you are busy, busy, busy and always on the move there will be less chance that youll have the time to stay and play. Choose your friends wisely. With a core group of like-minded friends, it is much easier to stay away from school gangs because you simply dont need them. Remember that gangs are a source of power for members, but they can also be a source of intimidation.Work hard and have fun. No one likes a teachers pet, but school gangs in particular hate them. Work hard and have fun at school, but dont annoy anyone with extreme goody-two-shoes (伪君子） behaviour . School gangs can be a nightmare if you must deal with them constantly. Stay away from gang hangouts and gang members, and dont involve yourself in any gang related activities.31.
