The name might sound like that of a superhero, but Pooperman’s task is much more basic.

He, or she, is trying to shame the irresponsible dog owners of Lincoln into cleaning up behind their pets.

Pooperman sticks notes into dog waste that owners have failed to clean up, warning them not to do it again. The typed notes read, "Don’t leave it. You might be the one who steps in it the next time you walk this way."

While welcoming the purpose of the message, local government officers have rounded on Pooperman for producing even more rubbish.

They say they would prefer it if people told them when there was a problem rather than adding to the rubbish problem. The city of Lincoln government’s environmental officer, Tony Garner, said, "The public can help instead by observing dog owners to make sure they clean up after their pets, perhaps asking them to remove the waste if they try to leave it."

"If this doesn’t work we can take action — people can tell us who the owner is, give us a description of the owner and the dog, or simply tell us when and where they allow their dog to produce the waste."

"We can then focus our patrols(巡邏) and take action against irresponsible owners."

Sue Grace, a dog owner from Birchwood, Lincs, said, "I always clean up after my dog. It’s very irresponsible if you don’t."

"There’s nothing worse than stepping in dog waste or dragging your long lead through it, but I don’t know that putting notes on it is the answer."

"It’s good that the local government is fighting against dog waste, though it might take one or two prosecutions(起訴) to make any difference."

1.What does Pooperman try to do?

A.To have irresponsible dog owners remove dog waste.

B.To advise the local government to protect the environment.

C.To praise responsible dog owners for protecting the environment.

D.To remind the local government to deal with the dog waste problem.

2.What does the underlined part "rounded on" in Paragraph 4 mean?

A.Punished. B.Blamed.

C.Laughed at. D.Worried about.

3.According to the environmental officer, the public can .

A.punish irresponsible dog owners when necessary

B.report irresponsible dog owners to the police if possible

C.force irresponsible dog owners to clean up dog waste in some way

D.request irresponsible dog owners to clean up dog waste then and there

4.The dog owner Sue Grace believes that .

A.the local dog owners are irresponsible

B.Pooperman is responsible and doing an effective job

C.the law may play a role in fighting against dog waste

D.the local government’s fighting against dog waste is successful

Students from Florida International University in Miami walked on water Thursday for a class assignment.To do it,they wore aquatic (水上的)shoes they designed and created.

Alex Quinones was the first to make it to the other side of a 175-foot lake on campus in record time—just over a minute.Quinones,who wore oversized boat-like shoes,also won last year and will receive $ 500.Students had to wear the aquatic shoes and make it across the lake in order to earn an “A” on the assignment for Architecture Professor Jaime Canaves,Materials and Methods Construction Class."It's traditional in a school of architecture to do boats out of cardboard for a boat race.I thought our students were a little bit more special than that," Canaves said."

Three boys and three girls boarded a bus to Lauderdale, Florida, dreaming of golden beaches. When the bus passed through New Jersey, they began to notice Vingo, who sat in front of them, dressed in a plain, ill-fitting suit.

Deep into the night, the bus pulled into Howard Johnson Restaurant, and everybody got off except Vingo. He sat rooted in his seat, and the young people began to wonder: perhaps he was a sea captain, a runaway from his wife, an old soldier going home.

Shortly after a snack, they went back to the bus and one of the girls sat beside him and introduced herself.

After a while, slowly and painfully, he told his story. He had been in prison in New York for the past four years. Last week he was released from imprisonment and now going home.

“When in prison I wrote to my wife,” he said. “I told her that I was going to be away a long time, and that if she couldn’t stand it, she could just forget me; I’d understand. We used to live in Brunswick, and there’s a big oak tree just as you come into town. Last week, I wrote her again. I told her that if she’d take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and I’d get off and come home. If she didn’t want me, forget it and I’d go on through.”

She told the others, and soon all of them were in it, waiting for the approach of the great oak tree. Then, suddenly, all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming and crying, doing small dances of joy. The oak tree was covered with yellow handkerchiefs, 20 of them, 30 of them, maybe hundreds, a tree that stood like small flags of welcome flying in the wind. As the young people shouted, Vingo rose and made his way to the front of the bus to go home.

1.What attracted the six young people when their bus passed through New Jersey?

A. The Howard Johnson Restaurant.

B. A silent man.

C. Golden beaches.

D. A well-dressed man

2.The young people on the bus try to imagine Vingo may be a person EXCEPT_________.

A. a sea captain

B. an old soldier going home

C. an old soldier going home

D. a prisoner escaping from prison

3.Vingo wrote a letter to his wife again last week to ________.

A. ask for her forgiveness

B. beg her to allow him back home

C. tie a yellow handkerchief to the oak tree

D. make sure if she was still in love with him

4.Why did all the young people shout with joy when they arrived in Brunswick?

A. They were approaching their destination.

B. They were surprised to see so many welcoming people.

C. They were sure that Vingo’s wife was expecting him home.

D. The oak tree was still standing there welcoming Vingo back home.

5.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. Going home

B. Vingo and his wife

C. Yellow handkerchiefs

D. The relationship between Vingo and the young people
