I saw the old man, with his untidy clothes and messy hair, as he dashed between the rows of the department store. He was trying to be ordinary but he was hard not to __21    .

He    22    the saleswoman and with a slight    23  , possibly German, asked where the women’s shoes were sold. “Fourth floor.” She responded in a voice I could hear 10 miles away. “Pardon? Where did you say they were?” he asked again, apparently    24 . Clearly the old man was somewhat    25    “Fourth floor, sir,” the friendly saleswoman replied patiently, this time so   26   that customers turned to see what was causing the   27    .

I continued watching as the man thanked the saleswoman and   28   for what I assumed was the fourth floor. But rather than walk to the    29    or the lift, he dashed behind a shelf, took out a notebook and started writing hurriedly, with an almost mad   30   on his face. Then he went straight up to another saleswoman and asked where the women’s shoes were sold. Again he asked her to   31   the answer and once more he walked away and took down some notes.

He did this three more times before a department store    32  , thinking him mad, removed him from the store. But rather than be   33   , the old man departed with a huge smile on his face. Although the incident was  34   , it was not until a year later, during my first year of university, that I gave it any further   35   . I walked into my language classroom and met my professor. It was that very same man.

My family and I lived across the street from Southway Park since I was four years old. Then just last year the city put a chain link fence around the park and started bulldozing (用推土機(jī)推平) the trees and grass to make way for a new apartment complex. When I saw the fence and bulldozers, I asked myself, “Why don't they just leave it alone?”       

Looking back, I think what sentenced the park to oblivion (被遺忘) was the drought (旱災(zāi)) we had about four years ago. Up until then, Southway Park was a nice green park with plenty of trees and a public swimming pool. My friends and I rollerskated on the sidewalks, climbed the trees, and swam in the pool all the years I was growing up. The park was almost like my own yard. Then the summer I was fifteen the drought came and things changed.

There had been almost no rain at all that year. The city stopped watering the park grass. Within a few weeks I found myself living across the street from a huge brown desert. Leaves fell off the park trees, and pretty soon the trees started dying, too. Next, the park swimming pool was closed. The city cut down on the work force that kept the park, and pretty soon it just got too ugly and dirty to enjoy anymore.

As the drought lasted into the fall, the park got worse every month. The rubbish piled up or blew across the brown grass. Soon the only people in the park were beggars and other people down on their luck. People said drugs were being sold or traded there now. The park had gotten scary, and my mother told us kids not to go there anymore.      

The drought finally ended and things seemed to get back to normal, that is, everything but the park. It had gotten into such bad shape that the city just let it stay that way. Then about six months ago I heard that the city was going to “redevelop” certain worn-out areas of the city. It turned out that the city had planned to get rid of the park, sell the land and let someone build rows of apartment buildings on it.

The chain-link fencing and the bulldozers did their work.  Now we live across the street from six rows of apartment buildings. Each of them is three units high and stretches a block in each direction. The neighborhood has changed without the park. The streets I used to play in are jammed with cars now. Things will never be the same again. Sometimes I wonder, though, what changes another drought would make in the way things are today.

1. How did the writer feel when he saw the fence and bulldozers.'?

A．Scared.             B. Confused.         C. Upset.        D. Curious.

2. Why was the writer told not to go to the park by his mother?

A．It was being rebuilt.                          B. It was dangerous.

C. It became crowded.                            D. It had turned into a desert.

3. According to the writer, what eventually brought about the disappearance of the park?

A. The drought.                                   B. The crime.

C. The beggars and the rubbish.                   D. The decisions of the city.

4. The last sentence of the passage implies that if another drought came,         .

A. the situation would be much worse

B. people would have to desert their homes

C. the city would be fully prepared in advance

D. the city would have to redevelop the neighborhood

Lisa was running late. Lisa，25，had a lot to do at work，plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs， she started to feel uncomfortably warn. By the time she got to the platform，Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn’t been a good idea to give blood the night before，she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.

Several yards away，F(xiàn)rank，43，and his girlfriend，Jennifer，found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.

But when he heard the scream，followed by someone yelling，“Oh，my God，she fell in!” Frank didn’t hesitate. He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ”his girlfriend screamed after him.

She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa，he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station.

It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness，felt herself being pulled along the ground，and saw someone else holding her purse.

Lisa thought she’d been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldn’t，and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.

Police and fire officials soon arrived，and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just as he had been seconds after the rescue，which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and 1 was thinking he was going to die，”she explained.

1.What was the most probable cause for Lisa’s weakness?

A. She had run a long way.

B. She felt hot in the subway.

C. She had done a 1ot of work.

D. She had donated blood the night before.

2.Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend?

A. Because they would miss their train.

B. Because he didn’t see the train coming.

C. Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift.

D. Because she was afraid the train would kill him.

3.How did Frank save Lisa?

A. By lifting her to the platform.

B. By helping her rise to her feet.

C. By pulling her along the ground.

D. By dragging her away from the edge.

4.When did Lisa become conscious again?

A. When the train was leaving.

B. After she was back on the platform.

C. After the police and fire officials came.

D. When a man was cleaning the blood from her head.

5.The passage is intended to _____________

A. warn us of the danger in the subway

B. show US how to save people in the subway

C. tell US about a subway rescue

D. report a traffic accident

本文主要講述一個(gè)男人在地鐵救一個(gè)暈倒的女人的故事。
