She quickly ran to the lake, shouting to her son as loudly as she could.Hearing her voice, the little boy swam quickly to his mother, but he was too slow. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him, too.The mother caught her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile caught his legs. There was a tug of war (拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother didn’t give up. A farmer happened to drive by. He heard her shouts, and then tried his best to kill the crocodile.After spending weeks in the hospital, the little boy felt well. His legs were scarred (留下疤痕) by the animal and on his arms there were deep scars, too. His mother’s hands had deeper scars because she wouldn’t let go.The newspaper reporter interviewed the boy.

But something terrible happened. The captain of another ship found the Mary Celeste floating (漂浮) in the middle of the sea on December 4th, 1872. The captain, his family and the sailors were not on the ship and were never found.What happened? Why did the sailors and passengers leave the ship? The Mary Celeste was not broken. Everything was good. There was no fighting, no fire and no smoke sign. There was still plenty of food and drinking water left. There were signs that the captain, his family and the sailors had left the ship in a hurry. We could tell all these because there was half-eaten food on the table. The sailors also left all their clothing behind. Even their shoes were beside their beds.How and when did the people leave the ship? Some people said that the lifeboat (救生艇) was still on the ship but others said it was missing. The captain’s diary was found on the ship and the last entry (登记) was made on November 24th. So, we could only guess that the happening time was between November 24th and December 4th.An investigator (调查者) went aboard the ship several times to search for the answers to all these questions. But he could not find any. No one else could solve the mystery. ( )41. What was the Mary Celeste?A. A train.B. A plane.C. A ship.D. A captain.( )42. When was the Mary Celeste found?A.
