On a sunny day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.

Two 12?year?old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football.Once they'd rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water.The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore.But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.

Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.

“Everything went quiet in my head” Tim recalls(回忆)“I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”

Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water.Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress.“At one point, I considered turning back” he says.“I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella

Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella.Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat.He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.

“Let's aim for the pier(码头)” Jack said.Tim turned the boat toward it.Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink.“Can you guys swim” he cried.“A little bit” the boys said.

Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier.Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs.Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys' faces.

“Are we almost there” they asked again and again.“Yes” Tim told them each time.

After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.

1.Why did the two boys go to the sea?

ATo go boat rowing.

BTo get back their football.

CTo swim in the open water.

DTo test the umbrella as a sail.

2.What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

AThe beach. BThe water.

CThe boat. DThe wind.

3.Why did Tim raise his head regularly?

ATo take in enough fresh air.

BTo consider turning back or not.

CTo check his distance from the boys.

DTo ask the boys to take down the umbrella.

4.How did the two boys finally reach the pier?

They can be seen more frequently than ever before on college campuses, wearing flannel(法兰绒) and thick?framed glasses while listening to music. One might find them playing unusual musical instruments, shopping at second?hand stores or expressing themselves in other unique ways.

They call themselves hipsters. Being “hip” used to mean following the latest fashion. But gradually the word has become a sign of “being cool, unique and unusual”

Hipsters value independent thinking, progressive politics, an appreciation of creativity and intelligence. Hipsters take pains and pride in not being mainstream. However, their culture has become quite trendy. This irony(讽刺) is central to their culture and offers an interesting conflict.

“I do take things in the mainstream with a positive attitude” says Ben Polson, a college student at Brown University. “But sometimes I also question what determines popularity, especially regarding music.” Polson represents many hipsters.

When less?known bands become popular, they often lose their former fan base in exchange for a new one. There is a famous hipster saying that goes, “I used to like that band before it got popular” Polson quoted.

According to Polson, bands' music changes when they go mainstream. They become less experimental, doing things just to save popularity and fans. The original elements that we were drawn to slowly disappear for the sake of popularity.

Many young adults have started to view hipsters' outlook as cool and they are adopting hipsters' anti?mainstream culture mind to themselves. This has led to specialized brands, stores and music for the hipster consumers. But on the other hand, some such stores, including clothing labels Urban Outfitters and American Apparel, have gained mainstream popularity. This has seemingly made the anti?mainstream culture become weaker.

“A lot of people that are self?defined hipsters aren't really hipsters. They're just trying to act as hipsters to seem cooler” says Amanda Leopold, a college student from Oberlin College, US. Although Leopold has many unusual tastes and seems quite individualist, she refuses to classify herself as a hipster.

1.In the passage, hipsters refer to people ________.

Awho are fans of pop music

Bwho study in different colleges

Cwho appear cool and unusual

Dwho try to attract others

2.According to the author, ________.

Ahipsters are the pioneers of the mainstream

Bhipsters are unhappy with the mainstream

Chipsters' culture exists mainly in music field

Dhipsters' culture can also become popular

3.What is the main idea of the seventh paragraph?

AUrban Outfitters and American Apparel are famous clothing labels.

BHipster consumers have more specialized brands, stores and music.

CAnti?mainstream culture can gain mainstream popularity.

DThe culture of hipsters is becoming more and more terrible.

4.When describing hipsters, the author speaks ________.

Ain an ironic voice Bin an objective voice

Cin an angry voice Din a funny voice
