Now Glen doesn’t like to think what might have happened had he and his best friends, Ray Wightman and Chris Johnson, picked their usual path along a rocky outcrop－the faster route to Johnson’s home on Triangle Mountain. They were heading there after school that day－April 14, 1999－to play street hockey in Johnson’s driveway. There were other lucky twists, too: not stopping at the shops to get a cola, as they usually did; hearing the strange cry.
It was 3:30 pm. The three teens were laughing and talking when suddenly they heard a strange cry coming from the ditch(沟渠) across the road. Crossing to take a look, they found an Adidas gym bag sitting deep in the icy water. They climbed down the steep bank and pulled the bag from the water, expecting to find abandoned cats or dogs inside. Instead, the boys found a trembling newborn girl. Wrapped in an old blanket, wearing a thin nightshirt, she was almost blue, her lips shaking from the cold and her crying.
The boys couldn’t have been more astonished. They knew this one needed to get warm and dry, although they didn’t know much about babies. Ray dug through his gym bag and wrapped her in a T-shirt. “We didn’t know what to do,” said Glen. “I didn’t think any of us had really held a baby before.” So the three stood beside the ditch, dumbfounded, taking turns to hold the baby to their chests to keep her warm.
“We knew it was no use walking up to Ray’s house, because his mum was working and no one would be home. We figured we’d have a better chance just staying by the road and flagging down someone.” So they stood there and waited.
A car drove by and the boys caught the driver’s attention, telling her that they had found a baby. The woman then drove off to get help. When the police and ambulance came 20 minutes later, the teens were told the baby was probably two or three hours old and had perhaps been in the ditch for an hour or more. They were also told that they had saved her life and that given 10-20 minutes more in the cold water, she probably would be drowned.
1.On April 14, 1999, Glen and his best friends ________.
A. were on their way to school
B. bought bottles of cola as usual
C. had intended to play street hockey
D. picked the faster route to Johnson’s home
2.When the three teens spotted an Adidas gym bag, ________.
A. they didn’t expect to find a baby
B. they found a cat crying in it
C. they found a little clog in it
D. they found the bag was wrapped in an old blanket
3.Why did the teens know it was no use walking up to Ray’s house?
A. Because it was too far away from Ray’s house.
B. Because his mum was working and no one would be home.
C. Because Ray’s parents had gone away on holiday elsewhere
D. Because the baby was in bad condition- and time was limited.
4.What can be the theme of the Text?

Have you ever had a science class that you look forward to? It doesn’t happen often. But when you have a teacher like Mrs. Field, it’s more than a science class. It’s a science class where learning is easy and fun. There is no getting down to a huge textbook or listening to a teacher about something you don’t care about.
My experience with Mrs. Field didn’t start with science class, but with her as my tutor. I was always a weak reader and wasn’t getting any better. My parents told me I needed to be tutored. One day after school, I went into the library with my mom for my first tutoring time. I had no idea who was tutoring me. My mom practically had to drag me into the library. The first thing we did was to play a game to get to know each other and get rid of the awkwardness. We didn’t even play a reading game.
We also went around the library and I got to pick out a book I wanted to read. She didn’t make me read a boring textbook about something I didn’t care about. I didn’t even pick a book. I picked out a magazine about remote control cars. I thought to myself, how bad could it be? To my surprise, She told me even though I was reading a magazine, I was still reading. After the first magazine, she picked out a book she liked. I would read a chapter and then she would read a chapter to me, in this way I didn’t have to read for long periods of time.
As I got better and faster at reading, I was able to read two chapters in the same amount of time, which used to take me to read one chapter.
Reading is one of the most important things in high school and college to be successful. If it were not for her, I would not be the reader I am today !
1. The writer tutored by Mrs. Field because____________.
A. he was too shy to talk with others.
B. he found science fun but hard.
C. he was eager to learn science.
D. he lacked the skills of reading.
2. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that __________.
A. the writer knew Mrs. Field very well
B. the writer was unwilling to be tutored
C. the writer felt awkward to read in the library
D. the writer went to the library to play a reading game
3. At the library, the writer __________.
A. chose any book he was interested in
B. played a reading game with Mrs. Field
C. was asked to read one chapter after another
D. had to read textbooks rather than magazines
4.What’s the author’s feeling about Mrs. Field according to the last paragraph?
A. unsatisfied B. worried
C. grateful D. regretful
