20.Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work,while others think that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying.But the donator who started sending envelops with cashes to deserving causes,accompanied by an article from the local newspaper,has made a northern German city believe in fairytales.
The first envelop was sent to a victim support group.It contained?10.000with a cutting from the Braunschiveiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag:similar plain white anonymous envelops each containing?10.000,then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.
The envelops keep coming,and so far at least?190.000has been distributed.Last month,one of them was sent to the newspaper's own office.It came after a story it published about Tom,a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident.The receptionist at the Braunschiveiger Zeitung an anonymous white envelop found 20notes of?500inside with a copy of the article.The name of the family was underlined.

Henning Noske,the editor of the Braunschiveiger Zeitung,said:"Maybe it is an old person who is about to die.We just do not know."However,he has told his reporters not to look for the city's hero,for fear that discovery may stop the donations.

5.They are the sort of friends who are so close that they trust each other with their lives.If one fails the other is there to catch him.
They are Wellman,whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing accident,and Corbett,an experienced rock climber.Together,they climbed up Half Dome,the famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National Park,through one of the most different routes.
During the climb,Crorbett took the lead,hit in the metal spikes(尖狀物) that guided the ropes and climbed up.Then,after Wellmanm pulled himself up the rope,Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again.This process was repeated time and again,inch by inch,for 13days.Wellman's job was not easy either.He got himself up the rope through upper body strength alone.In all,Wellman figured that he had done 5,000pull-ups up the rope on the climb.
However,when the two men first met,they never talked about climbing."He knew that was how I got injured."Wellman said.Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again and they started training.
Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth.At one point,pieces of rock gave way,and Corbett dropped down quickly.Wellman locked their rope in place,stopping the fall at 20feet.His quick action probably saved his friend's life.
"Your partner can save your life---you can save your partner's life,"Wellman said as the pair received congratulations from friends."There are real close ties."
21.Which of the following was a challenge for Corbett in climbing Half Dome?C
A.To climb up to remove the spikes.
B.To do 5,000pull-ups up the rope.
C.To climb it twice.
D.To lock the rope in place.
22.Why did the two men never talk about climbing when they first met?D
A.Corbett was poorly trained.
B.Wellman had lost interest in climbing.
C.Wellman hadn't decided whether to climb again
D.Corbett didn't want to hurt Wellman.
23.What do we know about Wellman?A
A.he stopped rock-climbing for some time.
B.he was disabled in a traffic accident.
C.he climbed Half Dome by himself.
D.he was saved by Corbett during the climb.
24.The main idea of the text is thatB.
A.two heads are better than one
B.friendship is very precious in life
C.the disabled should never give up
D.a(chǎn) man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated.
