    “Earthquake!”The word flashed in my brain.A roaring sound filled my ears.I tried to slide beneath my desk.The desk did a wild tap dance,slipping and sliding towards the centre of the room.I twisted my body and grabbed at the windowsill behind me,somehow kicking free of my dancing chair.I tried to stand.My legs skated away as if on a bucking escalator.

    My fingers shook,grasped and held the windowsill tightly.Somewhere through the roar sounded the terrified scream of some wounded animal.I looked behind me and tried to steady my gaze on the other kids but the scene was a dizzy nightmare.Some of the class were sitting in the middle of the room,surrounded by chairs and desks.One girl was screaming.A boy was trying to claw his way across the floor to the door in a crazy overarm crawl.

    My grip froze me to the windowsill.

    I cried aloud,“I’m going to die.I’m going to die.Save me,I’m not ready to die,I’m not ready!”

    I hunched forward on my knees and pressed my face against my clenched fingers.I looked at the backs of my fingers and stupidly noticed the fragile pale hairs growing out of the pores.The fingers would soon cease to exist.Somehow the impending horror of my death was too terrible to even cry about.

    Suddenly,I became aware that the rocking had ceased.Perhaps I wasn’t going to die.

    The roaring sound was made by______.

    A.a wounded animal                                        B.people screaming

    C.children running                                           D.an earthquake

    When the narrator clenches his fingers he is ______.

    A.afraid                       B.angry                        C.injured                      D.impatient

    Paragraph two describes the______.

    A.injuries suffered by the narrator                      B.effects of a bad nightmare

    C.disorder in the classroom                               D.narrator’s fear of death

    At the end of the passage there is a feeling of______.

    A.panic                        B.hope                         C.sorrow                      D.excitement

    A woman renewing her driver’s license at the County Clerk’s office was asked to state her occupation．She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself．
    “What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”
    “Of course I have a job,” said Emily．“I’m a mother.”
    “We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation… ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.
    One day I found myself in the same situation．The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title．“What is your occupation?” she asked．
    The words simply popped out．“I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
    The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.
    I repeated the title slowly, and then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.
    “Might I ask, ”  said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”
    Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t）, in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out)．Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it)．But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”
    There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out．
    As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (依托) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants---ages 13, 7, and 3.
    Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern．
    I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”
    Motherhood…What a glorious career!  Especially when there’s a title on the door.

                                                     Trapped on the 37th Floor
         Melinda Skaar wasn't expecting any phone calls. Skaar was working late in her office at the First
    Interstate bank of California. By 10:45 that night she was almost ready to go home when the phone rang.
    Picking it up, she heard a guard shouting. "There is a fire! Get out of there!"
         Skaar didn't panic. She figured that it was just a small fire. Her office building was huge. There were
    62 floors and her desk was on the 37th floor.
         Skaar called out to office mate Stephen Oksas, who also stayed late to work. But when they got to
    the hallway, they were met by a cloud of black smoke. Rushing back, Skaar shut the door and filled the
    space at the bottom of the door with her jacket to keep the smoke out.
         Then they called 911. Before they could call their families, however, the line went dead. That meant
    that they were completely cut off from the outside world. All they could do was wait and hope someone
    would come to rescue them.
         Minutes ticked by. Smoke began to float into the office. Soon it became hard for  them to breathe.
         Looking around, Skaar noticed a small workroom. It seemed to have cleaner air. So they crowded
    there. That helped for a while, but in time even the workroom was filled with deadly smoke.
         Hopeless, they tried to break the windows, but the glass was not breakable. Everything they threw at
    just bounced back.
         Defeated, they struggled back to the workroom. They felt weak and dizzy . Soon Skaar found Oksas
    had passed out.
         As Skaar and Oksas lay near death, rescuers were rushing to find them. At last, at about 4 a.m.,
    firefighters found them.
         Skaar and Oksas knew they were lucky to be alive. "Sunday is my birthday," Skaar told a reporter.
    She would be turning 29. But she knew she had already got the best present possible--the gift of life.
    1. What did Skaar and Oksas do when they were stopped by the fire? 
    A. They called their families.
    B. They waited where they were.
    C. They tried to run down the stairs.  
    D. They rushed back and shut the door.
    2. The first sentence of the passage is to _______.
    A. introduce Skaar  
    B. get the reader's attention
    C. explain the cause of the event  
    D. tell the background information
    3. The following helped Skaar and Oksas survive the fire except _______. 
    A. calling 911 for help
    B. breaking the windows to get some fresh air
    C. crowding in a small workroom for clean air
    D. shutting the door and keeping the smoke out with a jacket
    4. What can we conclude from Skaar's action in the fire?
    A. She is cleverer than Oksas.
    B. She was trained as a firefighter.
    C. She remained calm in the face of danger.
    D. She had had the experience of being caught in fire.
