We were driving along the village of Simdara. I 36 to my right and saw an old shelter 20 meters from the side of the road that appeared to be filled with 37 .
“Would you mind 38 ?” I asked the driver Waris. “I think there is a(n) 39 .”
Waris laughed. “No, Greg, that’s actually a public toilet,” explained Waris and he kept 40 .
“But why are there so many kids? What are they doing there? We need to 41 ,” I insisted. The word caught Waris 42 and he stopped the car.
When we reached the shelter, to my surprise, it was 43 a toilet—or at least it had been at one time. The roof was gone now, and the four toilet pits (坑) had been 44 with old boards. There were 25 children between 4 and 5 years old, one 45 , and a wooden board against the wall.
Though having a tough learning environment, the students are quite 46 to chat with us about their class and curriculum (课程). After about ten minutes, the teacher 47 if we might like to see “the rest of the school”. We 48 and followed her up the hill.
Just over the top of the hill, there was an old tent. It was very 49 inside because nearly 100 students were packed like sardines (沙丁鱼). These students were a little 50 , fourth-, and sixth-graders, and all of them were sitting on the ground. 51 the teacher, they were doing extremely well — 52 most of them had no books, paper or even pencils.

Eight – year – old Jesse Abrogate was playing in the sea late one evening in July 2001 when a 7-foot bull shark attacked him and tore off his arm. Jesse’s uncle jumped into the sea and dragged the boy to shore. The boy was not breathing. His aunt gave him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (人工呼吸) while his uncle rang the emergency services. Pretty soon, a helicopter arrived and flew the boy to hospital. It was a much quicker journey than the journey by road.
Jesse’s uncle, Vance Folsenzier, ran back into to the sea and found the shark that had attacked his nephew. He picked the shark up and threw it onto the beach. A coastguard shot the fish four times and although this did not kill it, the shark’s jaws relaxed so that they could open them, and reach down into its stomach, and pull out the boy’s arm.
At the Baptist Hospital in Pensacola, Dr. Ian Rogers spent eleven hours reattaching Jesse’s arm. “It was a complicated operation,” he said, “but we were lucky. If the arm hadn’t been recovered in time, we wouldn’t have been able to do the operation at all. What I mean is that if they hadn’t found the shark, well then we wouldn’t have had a chance.’
According to local park ranger Jack Tomosvic, shark attacks are not that common. “Jesse was just unlucky,” he says, “evening is the shark’s feeding time. And Jesse was in area without lifeguards. This would never have happened if he had been in area where swimming is allowed.’
When reporters asked Jesse’s uncle how he had had the courage to fight a shark, he replied, “I was mad and you do some strange things when you’re mad.”
What was the boy doing when the accident happened?
A．Feeding a hungry shark. B．Jumping into the rough sea.
C．Dragging a boy to the shore. D．Swimming in a dangerous area.
In which way did the boy’s uncle help with the operation?
A．By finding his lost arm. B．By shooting the fish.
C．By flying him to hospital. D．By blowing into his mouth.
How was his uncle in time of danger?
A．Careful. B．Brave. C．Optimistic. D．Patient.
Which of the following statements can be inferred from the passage?
Jesse’s uncle was mad.
Jesse was playing in area where swimming is allowed.
It was very difficult for the doctor to reattach Jesse’s arm.
Evening is the shark’s feeding time.

People should be warned against using mobile phones outdoors in stormy weather because they may“be struck by lightning”，according to doctors．
Three experts have described how a teenage girl was struck by lightning while using her phone in a large London park．The girl，aged 15，recovered，but a year later was still wheelchair-bound and found to be suffering complex physical and emotional problems.
The girl also had a perforate eardrum(打孔耳膜)on the side where she had been holding the mobile phone．She was having general recovery in Northwick Park Hospital，Middlesex．
Swinda Esprit，a senior house officer, said that while the brain and muscle damage was similar to that of many lightning victims—who can experience heart attacks on being struck—the ear problems were not．
She said that the damages were particularly relevant for people who might be involved in less serious lightning incidents，who might otherwise recover, but would never get their full hearing back if struck while on the phone．
“We were shocked by the damage，which is why we wanted to draw attention to it，”Dr Esprit said．“A year on and she still was suffering these difficult hearing．”
They added that three other cases had been reported in newspapers in China，South Korea，and Malaysia．In the Malaysian case，a sales executive was killed by lightning while talking on his phone during a thunderstorm near Kuala Lumpur．
“All these events resulted in death，”the doctors wrote．“This rare phenomenon is a public health issue，and education is necessary to stress the risk．”
The Australian Lightning Protection Standard recommends that metallic objects，including cordless or mobile phones，should not be carried outdoors during thunderstorms．However, “the United States National Weather Service says on its website that both are safe to use “because there is no direct path between you and the lightening”．
Paul Taylor, of “the Met Office'’，said the ear injuries were a consequence of mobile phones being metal，and not related to radio waves．
Mr. Taylor said that mobile phones should be treated as another piece of metal，similar to carrying coins or wearing rings，and people need to be warned against the possible danger．
1.What do we know about the teenage girl?
|
A．She was struck by lightning at schoo1． |
|
B．She completely recovered from being struck． |
|
C．She still suffered from mental problems． |
|

2.It can be inferred that damage done by lightening while using mobile phones .
|
A．is more serious than that when one is not using a mobile phone |
|
B．can be healed quickly except for heart attacks |
|
C．is less serious because the victims can usually recover |
|
D．is mainly in the brain and muscle of the victims |
3.Why did doctors stress the risk about using phones outside in lightening?
|
A．Because more people are faced with it． |
|
B．Because some deaths have been caused． |
|
C．Because lightning is harmful for the brain． |
|
D．Because a teenage girl got killed． |
4.We can infer from the last three paragraphs that .
|
A．both cordless and mobile phones are safe to use outside in lightning |
|
B．there is no direct connection between lightning and ear injuries at all |
|
C．opinions differ as to whether it is safe to use mobiles phones in lightning |

A．to draw attention to the risk of using mobile phones in lightening |
|
B．to focus on various damages done to lightning victims |
|
C．to tell us the news that a teenage girl was struck by lightning |
|
D．to stress the danger of making phone calls in lightning |
