D The Brown Bear My wife Laura and I were on the beach, with three of our children, taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we spotted a bear. The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly. Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, “Dad! The bear is right behind us!” An agreesive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back the sign (跡象 ) of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger. I held my camera tripod (三腳架 ) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I would not be able to hold it for long. Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear. The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face。 the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break. Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling (扭打 ) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back toward the forest, before returning for another attack the first time I felt panic. Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the oute for us could hardly have been better. I’m proud that my family rem ained clearheaded when panic could have led to a very different oute. 33. The brown bear approached the family in order to _______. A. catch shore birds B. start an attack C. protect the children D. set up a barrier for itself 34. The bear finally went away after it _______. A. felt safe B. got injured C. found some food D. took away the camera 35. The writer and his family survived mainly due to their ______ . A. pride B. patience C. calmness D. cautiousness 第二節(jié)(共 5小題;每小題 2分,滿分 10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的七個選項中選出能填人空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余 選項。 I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收銀臺)in her general store. 36 I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.” At first I was paid in candy. 37 I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 . to 7 . My father helped me set up a bank account. 38 By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妝品) . I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “ What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妝) ideas. 39 The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson,
