Wilson, 28 years old, had just gotten off the cable car (索道纜車) at the Arapahoe Basin Ski Area in Keystone, Colorado, along with his friends Billy Simmons and Hans Mueller. Their friend Richard had been on the cable car ahead of them, but when the men reached the top of the lift, he had disappeared. The men walked toward the source of the scream and found skiers stopped on the slope, pointing to the cable car. And then the friends screamed too. Oh, Richard! yelled Mueller. When Richard had tried to jump off the cable car, his backpack had been caught in the chair, which then dragged him back down the hill. In the process, the backpack belt twisted around his neck, making him breathless. Now Richard39。s body was swinging four feet above the snow. The cable car operator had quickly stopped it, and the friends kicked off their skis and ran toward the scene. They made a human pyramid to try to reach Richard, but the unconscious man was too far off the ground. With the clock ticking, Wilson ran to the ladder of a nearby lift tower. Scared skiers watched as he struggled the 25 feet. After he reached the top, Wilson39。s first challenge was to climb onto the twoinch steel cable that held the chairs. He handled the balance and height bravely, but he knew he could not walk on the cable. Therefore, he calmed down and sat over it and then used his hands to pull himself to Richard quickly. Wilson39。s greatest fear wasn39。t that he39。d fall, but that he wouldn39。t reach Richard. This was life or death, he said. When he reached Richard39。s chair, Wilson swung a leg over the cable and attempted to drop down onto it. But as he did that, his jacket caught on the movable footrest, which was in the up position. The footrest began to slide down, with Wilson attached. But before that could happen, he managed to free himself and reached Richard. Fortunately, the ski patrol (巡查) had gathered below and performed emergency treatment on Richard, who had been hanging for about five minutes, then skied him down to an ambulance. That night, Richard called from the hospital to express his thanks to Wilson, his other friends and the workers at the Arapahoe Basin Ski Area.（1）What happened to Richard when he tried to jump off the cable car? A.He was sick and became unconscious.B.He left his skis which stopped the cable car.C.He was too afraid to move forward in the cable car.D.He was caught by the neck, hanging down the cable.（2）How did Richard survive? A.People worked together and saved him.B.Wilson climbed on the cable and saved him.C.The ski patrol got him down and treated him.D.Skiers treated him and carried him to the hospital.（3）The author wrote the fourth paragraph to show that .
