Walter Osipoff was an experienced parachutist（伞兵）.He had already made more than 20 jumps by May 15 , 1941. That morning, Osipoff trained his soldiers to practice jumps. Three boxes, containing weapons, were also to be parachuted overboard as part of the exercise.

Most of the soldiers had already jumped when Osipoff, standing a few inches from the plane's door, started to push out the last box. Somehow his parachute was suddenly opened. Instead of flowing free, Osipoff’s parachute now wrapped itself around the plane's tail wheel. He was now hanging below the tail of the plane. The soldiers struggled to pull Osipoff to safety, but they could not reach him. The plane was starting to run low on fuel, but an emergency landing with Osipoff dragging behind would certainly kill him. And pilots had no radio contact with the ground. To attract attention below, they eased the transport plane down to 300 feet and started circling the airport.

Meanwhile, Bill Lowrey and John McCants saw the trouble at the same time. As the plane circled once again, Lowrey yelled to McCants, “We must save him!” Lowrey's plane took off quickly. Within minutes, they made five approaches, but the air proved too bumpy（颠簸）to try for a rescue. Lowrey flew back once again and edged the plane closer. McCants, standing upright in the back, reached for Osipoff. He grabbed him at the waist and pulled Osipoff into the plane. Lowrey then nosed his plane inch by inch closer to the transport and used his propeller（螺旋桨）to cut the parachute lines. After hanging for 33 minutes between life and death, Osipoff was finally free.

Three weeks later, Lowrey and McCants were awarded for accomplishing “one of the most brilliant and daring rescues in history". Osipoff spent the next six months in hospital. The following January, he went back to parachute jumping.

1.What happened to Walter Osipoff on May 15,1941 ?

2.Why did the transport plane circle the airport?

A.To inform the ground crew to refuel for it.

B.To warn other planes to keep away from it.

C.To show the dangerous situation to the ground.

D.To tell the ground to receive weapon containers.

3.How did Lowrey and McCants perform the rescue?

B.They boarded the transport plane to help.

C.They flew under Osipoff* s plane to free him.

Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林业), and most of the rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may still be very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas(large cities with their suburbs ) of more than a million people each – a large proportion than in Germany or English, let alone France. The statistics(统计) of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.

2.Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living in metropolitan areas?

3.What’s the meaning of the word “metropolitan” in the middle of the passage?

A. Of a large city with its suburbs．

B．Of small and large towns．

C．Of urban areas．

D．Of rural areas．

4.　 According to the passage，what can we learn about small towns in the United States?

A．Most small towns become gradually crowded．

B．Small towns are still similar to each other．

C．As the traditional picture is changing，towns are different．

D .Small towns are turning into large cities．

5.Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb?

B．Because the rush takes place too quickly．

C．Because the process is gradual．

D．Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas．
