    A Swedish man was dug out alive after being snowed in his car on a forest track for two months with no food, police and local media reported on Saturday.
    The 45-year-old from southern Sweden was found on Friday, February17, too weak to say more than a few words.
    He was found not far from the city of Umea in the north of Sweden by snowmobilers who thought they had come across a ruined car until they dug their way to a window and saw movement inside.
    The man, who was lying in the back seat in a sleeping bag, said he had been in the car since December 19.
    “Just incredible that he’s alive considering that he had no food, but also since it’s been really cold for some time after Christmas.” a rescue team member told regional daily Vasterbottens- Kuriren, which broke the news.
    Ebbe Nyberg, duty officer at the Umea police, said police saw no reason to doubt that the man had been stuck in the car for a very long time.
    “We would not make up something like this. The rescue services were on site too and saw the same as us.” he told Vasterbottens-Kuriren.
    Umea University Hospital, where the man is recovering after being rescued by police and a rescue team, said in a statement he was doing well considering the circumstances.
    Doctors at the hospital said humans would normally be able to survive for about four weeks without food. Besides eating snow, the man probably survived by going into a dormant-like(休眠似的）state, physician Stefan Branth told Vasterbottens-Kuriren.
    “A bit like a bear that hibernates. Humans can do that.” he said. “He probably had a body temperature of around 31 degrees which the body adjusted to. Due to the low temperature, not much energy was used up.”
    “Why the man ended up under the snow in the forest remains unknown,” police said.
    小题1:Who found the Swedish man in the snow?
    A．Snowmobilers.B．The police.C．A rescue team.D．Local people.

    A．police didn’t think it trueB．police were sure of the fact

    A．he was only forty-five year oldB．he did not use any energy

    小题2:B 推理题。Police saw no reason to doubt that the man had been stuck in the car for a very long time指警察没有理由怀疑这件事情，也就是说警察对于这个事实很确信，和有把握。故B正确。
    小题3:D 细节题。根据倒数第2段the man probably survived by going into a dormant-like(休眠似的）state。说明D正确。
    小题4:B 排序题。a肯定最先发生，排除AD。f在e的后面。故B正确。此类题目应该使用排除法。
    小题5:C主旨大意题。文章讲述的是一位让人难以相信的幸存者，竟然在没有食物的情况下生存了2个月。故C正确。

    A week later the woman called in a    45  of delight: “Please don’t run the ad again. We ’ve connected with   46 . The baby is due in a month.” Good news. I asked her if she   47  keep in touch if the adoption   48  to have a happy ending. She agreed but added when the adoption was final she was   49   to give me the story.
    One day my phone rang. I   50  her voice immediately. “The adoption is final.

    When we read books we seem to enter a new world.  This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very    1   .  Some stories are told    2   they were true.  Real people who live in a normal world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do.  Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not    3   .  They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be   4 for us.
    But there is more to books and writing than this.  If we think about it, even realistic writing is only    5   .  How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real?  For example, when we read about Harry Potter, we do seem to learn something about the real world.  And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than    6   .  Reading, like writing, is an action.  It is a way of    7   .  When we read or write something, we do much more than simply look at words on a page.  We use our    8   --- which is real --- and our imagination ---which is real in a different way --- to make the words    9   in our minds.
    Both realism and fantasy use the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think.  When we read    10   realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we know that we are real and they are not.  It sounds   11   , but it works.  When we read, we fill in missing information and    12   about the causes and effects of what a character does.  We help the writer by pretending that what we read is like real life.  In a way, we are writing the book, too.
    Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our    13   when we are reading.  We    14   a book and lose ourselves in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next.  Knowing how we feel    15   we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.

    Millions of girls grow up with the hope of becoming a famous singer. Some even win local talent competitions as children, but only a few such early successes and dreams turn into reality. Jessica Andrews is one of the few whose dreams have come true.
    Andrews, first taste of success came at the age of 10. She won a talent competition in her home town of Huntingdon, Tennessee, singing I Will Always Love You, originally sung by Whitney Houston. Houston's version of the song appeared on The Bodyguard sound track, which happened to be the first album Andrews ever bought.
    Within two years, talk of Andrews had spread to Nashville and caught the attention of producer Byron Gallimore, whose credits include work with Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Jo Dee Messina. With Gallimore signed on to produce, Andrews soon had a recording contract (合同)with Dream Works' Nashville label.
    Andrews' professional career was launched with 1999's Heart Shaped World, recorded when she was 14 years old. The album included the country hit I Will Be There For You, which also appeared on The Prince Of Egypt . She followed up the release of the album by touring as a support act for such country superstars as Faith Hill and Trisha Yearwood.
    With the release of 2001’s， Who I Am, Andrews became a star in her own right. The album was certified (证明）gold for sales of 500,000 copies. Andrews returned in April 2003 with Now，an album that she promised would show a new side of the young artist. "This album has a very different feeling for me," she said. "It's a lot more personal and there's a confidence that wasn't quite there on the first two. I feel especially connected to this group of songs."

    A few months ago as I wandered through my parents’ house, the same house I grew up in, I had a sudden, scary realization. When my parents bought the house, in 1982, they were only two years older than I am now. I tried to imagine myself in two years, ready to settle down and buy the house I’d still be living in almost 30 years later.
    It seemed ridiculous. On a practical level, there’s no way I could afford to buy a house anytime soon. More importantly, I wouldn’t want to. I’m not sure where I’ll be living in two years, or what kind of job I’ll have. And I don’t think I’ll be ready to settle down and stay in one place.
    So this is probably the generation gap that divides my friends and me from our parents. When our parents were our age, they’d gotten their education, chosen a career, and were starting to settle into responsible adult lives.
    My friends and I – “Generation Y” – still aren’t sure what we want to do with our lives. Whatever we end up doing, we want to make sure we’re happy doing it. We’d rather take risks first, try out different jobs, and move from one city to another until we find our favorite place. We’d rather spend our money on travel than put it in a savings account.
    This casual attitude toward responsibility has caused some critics to call my generation “arrogant”, “impatient”, and “overprotected”. Some of these complaints have a point. As children we were encouraged to succeed in school, but also to have fun. We grew up in a world full of technological innovation: cellphones, the Internet, instant messaging, and video games.
    Our parents looked to rise vertically(垂直的)--starting at the bottom of the ladder and slowly making their way to the top, on the same track, often for the same company. That doesn’t apply to my generation.
    Because of that, it may take us longer than our parents to arrive at responsible, stable adulthood. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In our desire to find satisfaction, we will work harder, strive for ways to keep life interesting, and gain a broader set of experiences and knowledge than our parents’ generation did.
