阅读理解。     It was in August 1999 that I decided to come to China to work as a
language teacher.
     I taught in Zhongshan City, Guangdong for six months before moving
to Ningbo. I came to Wanli University in 2000, and I taught there for five
years. My time in Ningbo is great. I’ve met many wonderful Chinese
teachers.I came to China with the idea of helping Chinese friends learn
English better, and I have achieved this many times over. I’ve traveled to
many places in China, and I find that Ningbo is my favorite place.
     When I first came to Ningbo in 2000, the downtown area was under a lot of construction. It wasn’t as clean as it is now, however, I knew that this
was a great city to live in. When I arrived, there was one McDonalds, and
three KFC’s. But we didn’t get a Starbucks until 2003.
     I’ve really enjoyed spending my time here, especially now that I have
found my beautiful wife, and we will be having our first child in Ningbo .
Maybe she or he will learn Ningbo Hua, to talk with the grandparents.
     While staying in Ningbo, I have noticed that many people can understand English, but are very shy to speak out. I’m telling you now, it is only a
language, and don’t be afraid to talk, just remember, “Nobody is
perfect

     One terribly cold day, a snowstorm hit our area. Needing firewood, I quickly set out with my best friend, Bruce,
to look for a tree to cut down. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. So it was important to have
a friend who could warn me of dangers.
     When I chose a big 23-meter-tall tree and prepared to cut it down, Bruce suddenly warned me, "Don"t cut down
that tree! It"s too close to the power line!" I wasn"t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I couldn"t
wait to finish the job and go back home. I began cutting down the tree. When the tree fell, there was no longer any
doubt whether my friend was right.
     The tree caught the power line, bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all,
electricity can"t travel through wood. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree, pain ran up my arm and through
my head. I had been shocked!
     After I returned home and told my mother what happened, she quickly called the power company. Workers from
the power company soon arrived. One of them asked if I had touched the tree, and when I told him I had, his face
turned pale. "You should have been killed," he said. It was my boots that saved my life.
     Within two hours, the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down--but not my mother. Even
though she was glad that I wasn"t hurt, my mother was still serious with me. After all(毕竟), I shouldn"t have
brushed off my friend"s warning.
1. Although Bruce warned him, the writer still cut the tree down because __________.
A. he was sure there would be nothing to happen
B. he wasn"t sure if Bruce was right and expected to go home earlier
C. he didn"t hear his friend"s warning at all because of the blowing wind
D. he knew electricity can"t travel through wood
2. The underlined phrase "brushed off" in the last paragraph may mean "__________".
A. pay no attention to
B. give up
C. think over
D. give in
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Without his boots, the writer would have been killed by electricity.
B. The writer"s mother was angry with what he had done.
C. When the tree was cut down, the writer realized his friend was right.
D. When the tree caught the power line, Bruce called the power company.
4. In the passage, the writer mainly wanted to tell us __________.
A. one of his terrible experiences when cutting down a tree
B. not to cut trees down any more to prevent dangers from happening
C. it"s important to listen to other people"s opinions
D. to be careful while we"re working with friends
