Dangwal was a teacher in Bankholi village from December 2016 till August 21th this year. The school is attended by about 200 children of seven villages. “I had spent nearly three years teaching children in this school and spending time with the villagers. They always considered me as a member of their own family. That is why when I told them that I have been sent to another school, they could not believe it,” said Dangwal.
On learning his leaving, the villagers told him that they would like to organize a “Goodbye” party for him, on which he agreed but placed a condition that “It should be a small one.” However, on the final day I was surprised to see a large number of villagers gathered near the school with drums. As soon as I stepped out of the school, children and women started crying by hugging me while asking me not to go. The love brought tears to my eyes as well,” Dangwal said.
Remembering his early days in the school, Dangwal said it was not easy for him to adjust but gradually he managed it. “In the six months, I faced some problems as the culture and language of the villagers in the area was different from mine. I learnt it, which helped me to get along with the children and villagers,” Dangwal recalled.
“He was not just a teacher of our children but one of us. He always stood with every villager in the hour of need. His leaving the school is a big loss for us,” one of the villagers, Mamta Rawat, said while praising Dangwal.
He was one of the few teachers who decided to live in the village where the school was located while most of the teachers would live at more comfortable places away from the village. This really touched us,” said another villager Harish Uniyal. “He would always be in our hearts,” Uniyal further added.

Bob Wallace was 25 minutes from home in Tennessee, on a cold December night in 2015 when he got a cell phone call from his mother. “The mountain is on fire,” she screamed, “and Brian’s up there!”
Wallace’s family owned a dozen rental cabins (小屋) on Shields Mountain, and Wallace’s friend and fellow rental-cabin owner, Brian McGee, aged 56, was up there trying to put the fire out by himself. Wallace, 32, lived on the mountain too.
Wallace turned around and headed for a dirt road. He made it about halfway up the steep, winding path before his front-wheel-drive car gave up. He called McGee, who drove down in his pickup so they could fight the fire together.
They headed first to their rental cabins. “I wanted to make sure our guests were gone. They were,” says Wallace. At that point, he had a choice: try to save his cabins or rescue people renting other cabins nearby. “On the moun¬tain, you don’t have many locals. They’re mostly tourists who don’t know their way around,” he says.
Over the next two hours, the two friends drove through the smoky moun¬tain, knocking on doors and leading panicked people to safety. “I know that mountain so well,” Wallace says, “I could drive and know exactly where I am just by time traveled.” Thanks to their brave and immediate action, the two helped 14 people out of the danger.
Fourteen people died that night in Sevier County. But the fire didn’t take away a single life on Shields Mountain. And though his home and business were destroyed, Wallace remains calm. “I wasn’t worried about my loss, not when I saw those families trapped on the mountain,” he says, “I knew I was gonna help them.”
1.Where was Wallace when the fire broke out?
A. On the way to visit his mother. B. Away from his home.
C. On the way to the cabins. D. On a dirt road.
2.What is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Wallace’s car broke down halfway.
B. Wallace was picked up by McGee on the path.
C. Brian tried to put the fire out by himself.
D. They hadn’t planned to save their guests first.
3.What was the main reason why the two friends could rescue the people?
A. They gave up their own cabins.
B. They turned to locals for help.
C. Wallace was familiar with the area.
D. They put out the fire before it spread.
4.Which of the following words can best describe Wallace?
A. Satisfied. B. Intelligent.
C. Wise. D. Selfless.

I’ll never forget driving away from my village in war-torn Vietnam. I was five and my mum, Can, told me and my brother Tam we were going on holiday, but as she hugged us goodbye, she began to sob so much her whole body was shaking. I gripped my little brother’s hand as I watched the tiny village grow smaller in the rear view window. Like many Vietnamese children, we were adopted by an Australian family.
It was a scary, lonely and confusing time, and I missed my birth family horribly. “When am I going home?” I’d ask again and again in Vietnamese, but no one would answer me because they didn’t understand. I’d ask about my birth mother so often that my new parents told me she had died. I cried myself to sleep every night until I was eight or nine. My adoptive family were dysfunctional and home life was tough.
At 15, my adoptive mother died. After that, I was going through my adoptive father’s filing cabinet (橱柜) and I found an old letter, with a Vietnamese postmark. I felt delighted as I realized it was from my birth mum. Straight away, I wrote a long letter to the address she had given, explaining who I was and asking if Can was alive.
Soon after, I got a simple fax back, saying, “Mother still alive, very happy to hear from you.” My heart soared as I read her words. For the next few years, I exchanged letters with her and was thrilled to finally have contact with her. I was so grateful for that.
1.Why did the author’s mum begin to sob in Paragraph 1?
A.Because she felt excited when hugging her children.
B.Because her children were going on holiday.
C.Because her children were leaving her.
D.Because her whole body was shaking.
2.How was the author’s adoptive life?
A.Hard. B.Happy.
C.Easy. D.Free.

A.Can didn’t like the author. B.Can didn’t know where the author was.
C.Can was dead. D.Can was not allowed to contact the author.
4.How did the author feel when she read her mum’s words?
A.Upset. B.Excited.
