     One of Britain's bravest women told yesterday how she helped to catch suspected (可疑的) police killer
David Bieber-and was thanked with flowers by the police. It was also said that she could be in line for a share
of up to ￡30,000 reward money.
     Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in ending the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked
at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Bieber's bedroom
and to watch him secretly. Then she waited alone for three hours while armed police prepared to storm the
building.
     She said:"I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in
the car park I was so glad they were there."
     The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious (懷疑) of the guest who checked in at 3 pm
the day before New Year's Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face.
She said:"He didn't seem to want to talk too much and make any eye contact (接觸)." Vicki, the only employee
on duty, called her bosses Margaret, 64, and husband Stan McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 pm.
     Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 pm to
make sure that this was the wanted man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki every 15 minutes.
     "It was about ten past two in the morning when the phone went again and a policeman said 'Would you go
and make yourself known to the armed officers outside?'. My heart missed a beat."
     Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers through passages and staircases to the top floor room and handed
over the key.
     "I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that part of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see
into the man's room, but I could see the passage. The police kept shouting at the man to come out with his
hands showing. Then suddenly he must have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was
handcuffed (帶上手銬)."

1. The underlined phrase "be in line for" ( paragraph 1 ) means _____.
A. get
B. be paid
C. ask for
D. own
2. Vicki became suspicious of David Bieber because _____.
A. the police called her
B. he looked very strange
C. he came to the hotel with little luggage
D. he came to the hotel the day before New Year's Eve
3. Vicki's heart missed a beat because _____.
A. the phone went again
B. she would be famous
C. the policemen had already arrived
D. she saw 20 policemen in the car park
4. David Bieber was most probably handcuffed in _____.
A. the passage
B. the man's room
C. Vicki's bedroom
D. the top floor room
5. The whole event probably lasted about _____ hours from the moment Bieber came to the hotel to the arrival
    of some armed officers.
A. 6
B. 8
C. 11
D. 14

    I felt encouraged by his words and began to swim more calmly.But my clothes stuck to me like a heavy weight.I could hardly stay above the surface.

    Counsel saw this.“Shall I cut them?”he asked.

    With a knife he cut my clothes from top to bottom and took them of quickly while I swam for both of us.

    Then I did the same for Counsel,and we continued to swim near each other.

     But we were in serious trouble.The crew（船員）might not have noticed our disappearance.

    And if they had,they could not return because the rudder（舵）had broken.Counsel thought of all this,and calmly made his plans.We decided to wait for the ship as long as possible,because we had no other hope of safety.I suggested that we save our strength so that both of us would not be tired out at the same time.This was how we did it:While one of us lay on his back,quite still,with arms crossed and legs stretched out（伸直）,the other would swim and push him along.We changed every ten minutes or so.In this way we could swim for hours,perhaps till daylight.The crash（破裂聲）of the ship and the whale（鯨）had appeared at about eleven o’clock.We had about eight hours to swim before daylight.This seemed possible,if the sea remained calm.

    第三部分閱讀理解(共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分)

    閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

    A

    This week in our Foreign Student Series，we talk about getting an American education online．A student named Hendra has written to us from Indonesia asking about a good online university．Finding the right online program requires research．Talking to advisers and recruiters（招募者）can help．Keep in mind，though，that they might have a financial interest to direct you to certain programs．

    The Council on Higher Education Accreditation（CHEA）recognizes a group in Washington，D．C．，to accredit（授權）schools that offer distance learning．One hundred and ten programs in the United States and six other countries are accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council．

    We asked the executive director，Michael Lambert，for advice on choosing a distance learning program．He says the first thing is to go on the CHEA Web site to find if a school is accredited．The address is c-h-e-a dot o-r-g．Next，make sure the school offers what you need．Do you need a degree，or will a certificate or license be enough?

    Another consideration is cost．Often the published price does not include all the costs --like books．Technology requirements can also add to the costs．Will you need to get new software or a high-speed Internet connection or even a new computer to take the classes you want?

    Also，consider the level of interaction that an online program offers．You might never meet the teacher or other students in person．

    Finally，and this is our own advice，find out what others say on the Internet for comments or news stories about schools that interest you．Just remember that what people say is not always fair or true．

    56．This passage is probably from ________．

    A．a magazine          B．a newspaper    

    C．a text book       D．a radio program

    57．This passage is mainly about ________．

    A．how to get an American education online

    B．what to learn in an American university

    C．the introductions to schools offering distance learning

    D．the advantages of online education

    58．What else should be taken into consideration about cost besides the published price?

    A．The cost for books and technology requirements．

    B．The cost for books and a new computer．

    C．The cost for new software and a high-speed Internet connection．

    D．The cost for technology requirements and even a classroom．

    59．How can you find the information about schools accredited to offer distance learning easily?

    A．Ask the members of CHEA．        B．Go on the website of chea.org．

    C．Ask Michael Lambert for help．      D．Talk to advisers and recruiters．

    60 According to Michael Lambert，________．

    A．to get a certificate or a license is much easier than to get a degree

    B．it’s not fair for the schools to charge extra money beside the published price

    C．the level of interaction that an online program offers is quite considerable

    D．people’s comments about schools are always unbelievable
