Then he began his struggle to escape.Later he said，“It was really a half penny that saved my life.It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot.I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear，but no help came.”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat，and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot.Then Mr Johnson found a wrench (扳手) and began to work on the boot lock.Fifteen minutes passed by.“It was the only chance I had.Finally_it_gave，but as soon as I moved the boot lid，the water and mud poured in.I forced the lid down into the mud and climbed up clear as the car filled up.”His hands and arms cut and bruised，Mr Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby.Huddled in a blanket，he said，“That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible，police said last night.The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.1．Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr Johnson?A．The hammer.B．The coin.C．The seat.D．The horn.2．We know from the passage that________.A．Mr Johnson’s car stood on its boot as it fell downB．Mr Johnson’s car acci dent was partly due to the slippery roadC．Mr Johnson struggled in the pouring mud as he unscrewed the back seatD．Mr Johnson could not escape from the door because it was full of sweet jam3．“Finally it gave” in Paragraph 5 means that________.A．at last the wrench went brokenB．the chance was lost at the last minuteC．the lock came open after all his effortsD．luckily the door was torn away in the end4．What is the best title for this newspaper article?A．Driver Escapes through Car BootB．The Story of Mr Johnson，a Sweet SalesmanC．The Driver Survived a Terrible Car AccidentD．Car Boot Can Serve as the Best Escape RouteBChelyabinsk，Russia—A meteorite (陨石) moved quickly across the sky and exploded over central Russia on Feb.15,2013，raining fireballs over a vast area and causing a shock wave that smashed windows，damaged buildings and injured 1,200 people.People heading to work in Chelyabinsk heard what sounded like an explosion，saw a bright light and then felt the shock wave，according to a Reuters journalist in the industrial city 1,500 km east of Moscow.The fireball，travelling at a speed of 30 km per second according to Russian space agency Roscosmos，had blazed (熊熊燃烧) across the horizon，leaving a long white trail that could be seen as far as 200 km away.Car alarms went off，thousands of windows were broken and mobile phone networks were interrupted for a short time.The Interior Ministry said the meteorite explosion，a very rare spectacle，alsoreleased a great explosive sound.“I was driving to work.It was quite dark，but it suddenly became bright as if it were day，”said Viktor Prokofiev,36，a resident of Yekaterinburg in the Urals Mountains.“I felt like I was blinded by headlights.”The meteorite，which weighed about 10 tonnes and may have been made of iron，entered Earth’s atmosphere and broke apart 30 km­50 km above ground according to Russia’s Academy of Sciences.“The energy released when it entered the Earth’s atmosphere was equal to a few kilotonnes，”the academy said，“the power of a small at omic weapon exploding.”No deaths were reported but the Emergencies Ministry said 20,000 rescue and clean-up workers were sent to Urals Region after President Vladimir Putin told Emergencies Minister Vladimir Puchkov to ease and help the victims.The Interior Ministry said about 1,200 people had been injured，at least 200 of them children，and most from broken pieces of glass.5．What do we learn about the meteorite from the passage?A．It is a very huge ball made of iron.B．It quickly broke apart on the ground.C．It exploded over Russia’s Urals Region.D．It’s similar to an A­bomb in weight.6．The underlined word “smashed” in Para.1 is closest in meaning to “________”．A．broke B．meltedC．swallowed D．cleared7．We can know from the passage that ________.A．Moscow is 1,500 kilometers away from the east of Chelyabinsk B．many houses were destroyed，with lots of people reported missingC．Viktor Prokofiev became blind after seeing the rare spectacleD．the shock wave briefly influenced mobile phone networks8．Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A．“Meteorite Rush” Begins in RussiaB．President Putin Orders AssistanceC．Meteorite Hits Russia,1,200 People HurtD．Meteorite Flies Quickly Across RussiaⅢ.书面表达假设你校英语社团举办以“讲求文明，从我做起”为主题的征文活动，请你以“On the Way to School”为题，写一篇英语短文。
