    Maja Kazazic looked closely down into the aquarium(水族馆)．For two years, she’d been watching the injured dolphin named Winter swim around the tank．From a distance, the dolphin seemed approachable enough．Still, as Kazazic prepared to jump into the water, a little panic gradually came into her excitement．

    The young woman eased herself into the pool．Despite her fear, she felt strong wearing her new leg．She was ready to make good on a promise from long ago．

    In second grade in Mostar, Yugoslavia, Kazazic’s five-year-old cousin, Jasmina, died of leukemia(白血病)．Kazazic swore that she would honor the little girl by swimming with a dolphin, an animal they both adored．“Jasmina never got the chance to do it,” says Kazazic, 32, “so I decided that someday I’d do it for her．”

    In 1993, during the Bosnian civil war, 16-year-old Kazazic was badly injured．Her left leg was cut off just below the knee and was brought to the United States for treatment．A few months later, Kazazic received her first artificial leg．Because her right leg was also damaged, walking was still very painful．Nonetheless, she managed to graduate from a local high school．

    After receiving a BA in psychology, she moved to Florida’s Gulf Coast．She liked watching the dolphins play at the aquarium．A young dolphin, Winter, who had lost her tail in a crab trap, caught Kazazic’s eye: “She swam more like a shrimp(虾) than a dolphin．”

    After one doctor’s visit, trainers fit Winter with a high-tech tail．When it was done, Winter swam away fast．Kazazic was impressed．She approached the trainers, who put her in touch with the inventors．Within ten days, she had a new leg and she could walk without pain again．

    Eight months later, Kazazic was ready to keep the promise she had made in honor of Jasmina．“After being in a war zone, this should be a piece of cake,” Kazazic said as she lowered herself into the tank．She held out a hand to Winter, who approached cautiously, and then moved away．After a few minutes, the dolphin let Kazazic move her hand gently over her back．The two started an hour-long swim around the pool．When Kazazic climbed out, her parents hugged her．She would have shouted with joy had she not been aware of dolphins’ sensitivity to noise．Instead she quietly said, “I felt I owed somebody something, and now I’ve paid my debt．” Out in the parking lot, she got into her car and shouted loudly and happily all the way．

    56．Which is the correct order of the following events?

             a．Kazazic was brought to the USA for treatment．

             b．Kazazic’s five-year-old cousin, Jasmina, died of leukemia．

             c．Kazazic swam with a dolphin named Winter．

             d．Kazazic’s left leg was cut off below the knee．

             e．Kazazic had a new leg and could walk without pain．

             A．b,d,c,a,e   B．b,d,a,e,c    C．d,a,e,c,b    D．b,a,d,e,c

    57．Which of the following sentences BEST indicates Kazazic is a woman who keeps her word?

             A．Despite her fear, she felt strong wearing her new leg．(Paragraph 2)

             B．… “so I decided that someday I’d do it for her．” (Paragraph 3)

             C．“I felt I owed somebody something, and now I’ve paid my debt．” (Paragraph 7)

             D．“After being in a war zone, this should be a piece of cake,”…(Paragraph 7)

             A．Ashamed, faithful and outgoing．         B．Hard-working, shy and hesitant．

             C．Unsatisfied, determined and grateful．          D．Determined, considerate and faithful．

    59．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
