阅读理解。  Every child has a dream of what they want to be, right? When Rence Butts
was little, her dream was to become a volunteer firefighter because her father
was one. Sadly, when she was 14, her father died and she was never able to
volunteer with him. Rence"s story doesn"t end there, however, which is why I
think of her as a true heroine. She was strong-minded and never gave up, which
makes her a good firefighter.
  Some days she must be ready to deal with any emergency, like fighting a
fire, dealing with a car accident or helping someone who"s sick. Other days she
is in the driver"s seat. Sometimes Rence works nine to eleven days a month on
24-hour shifts. She also has a family to take care of. Her husband is a firefighter,
too.
Rence remembers the first time she fought a fire. She was awoken early in the
morning by the alarm. She said she was very nervous but did what she had to do.
When I asked Rence what the best part of her job is, she replied. "Helping
people and saving their lives." I think that shows signs of being a true heroine.
She"s always glad to do anything for anyone in need. With 140 people in her
station, Rence is one of the only three women.
  I think she"s great. We could never live without people like her who is glad
to help others. Rence"s deed helps me believe that I can do anything. I hope
someday to be just like her: to wake up and help people every day.1. When her father died, Rence Butts _____. A. gave up her dream                  
B. decided to do as her father did
C. married a firefighter                
D. became a child without family2. What is Rence"s husband?A. A driver.

D. A fireman.3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer learns a lot from Rence.
B. There are 143 members in the station.
C. Rence works 9 to 11 hours every day.
D. Rence wants to be famous by doing so.4. What does the writer think of Rence Butts?A. Clever.        
B. Careful.        
C. Helpful.        
D. Outgoing.5. What"s the best title for the passage?A. True heroine                      
B. A busy volunteer
C. A famous woman

     John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington, and he inherited (继承) $1, 000, 000 when he
was 23. He didn"t feel happy at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn"t have
to. John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He didn"t tell any of his friends and gave
$ 100, 000 of his money to a charity that helped poor children to live better lives. Today he is 36. He
still wears cheap shoes and clothes and owns a small car only,  but he is much happier. 
     Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world, $ 200 a month for
each. The children do not receive the money in cash (现金). The money pays for the children"s school
expenses, food, medical care and clothing. John receives a report each year on the children"s progress.  
They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.
     When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. "It was not anything special," he
said. "Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was helping, I did not know
anything about the type of life they had. "
     Once John went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting. When I met
her, I felt very happy," he said, "I saw that the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer
to the child in a way that giving money alone cannot." "I want to do everything  I can. I will go on helping
those children in need," he added.
