Izzy"s mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.

Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: "I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn"t strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared. The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse. My mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his
"She"s a little star," said Debbie, "i was really upset but Izzy just took over. I just can"t believe what she did. I really think all children should be taught first aid.

小题3:A

解析

试题分析: 本文属于记叙文范畴,在文中作者主要讲述了9岁的小女孩Lzzy当父亲心脏病发作时采取急救的事情。Lzzy的母亲曾经教给Lzzy一些急救措施,当看到父亲心脏病发作的时候,她因为手的力气小,而用脚去踩父亲的胸口,以达到使心脏恢复跳动的目的。机智勇敢的Lzzy她不仅救了父亲,而且对此也受到了学校的奖励。
小题1:D考查细节理解。根据文章第二段lzzy, nine , restarted father Colm’s heart by stamping on his chest 可知Lzzy自知自己力气小,用手很难达到急救的目的,她用脚踩父亲胸口的目的就是为了让他的心脏恢复跳动,故答案选D。
小题2:C考查细节理解。本道排序题的解题重点是首尾确定法,文章采取倒叙的手法,先描述了Lzzy对父亲采取的急救措施,然后在下文又提到以前母亲教给过Lzzy如何急救,所以Lzzy学会急救方法是最先发生的事情,排除BC选项。再根据作者对事件的叙述可知在父亲晕倒后,母亲去拨打了急救电话,而她怕医生不能及时赶到而又去对父亲采取了必要的急救措施,选C。
小题3:A考查细节理解。在文章第八段中作者对Colm,也就是Lzzy的父亲进行了介绍,这位卡车司机因病而住院接受治疗,然而在出院的第二天病症又次发生,以至于呼吸停止,由此可知本段内容主要讲述了Colm发病的事情,故答案选A。
小题4:C考查推理判断。在文章中作者主要讲述了当父亲发病,呼吸心脏停止的时候,Lzzy采取急救行动救父亲的故事,通过这件事描写了小女孩lzzy的勇敢,而其他选项内容片面,不能反应文章的中心,故答案选C。

举一反三
One night, when I was eight , my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget. “Sweetie, my company wants to       me but needs me to work in Brazil. This is like your teacher telling that you’ve done        and allowing you to skip a grade(跳级), but you’ll have to       your friends. Would you say yes to your teacher?” She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I was puzzled. The question kept me     for the rest of the night I had said “yes” but for the first time, I realized the     decisions adults had to make.
For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I’d        wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her       and it was difficult not to feel lonely at times.
During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we flew to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large       apartment, I became       how lonely my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then     I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on       family and work.       difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn’t know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a       attitude.
Back home , I       myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she        to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be       . I learn how to take care of myself and set high but achievable    .
My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget what the       has really taught me. Sacrifices       in the end. The separation between us has proved to be       for me.

“ What is our first stop?” asks my father.
“What time is it?”
“Still don’t have a watch?”
Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of little boy.
“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”
A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.
We stare up and I ask myself, Would I ever devote my life to anything?
No directions, …… I always used to hear those words in my father’s voice. Now I hear them in my own.

“Did you ever travel with your dad? I ask.
“Only once,” he says. “ I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other---but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”>
The kast sebtebce----it’s probably the same thing I’s say about my father. And what I’d want my child to say about me.
In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I’ve never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world, I can keep traveling, I realize--- and maybe a regular job won’t be as dull as I feared.
Weeks after our trip, I call my father.

As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations- UNESCO and National Geographic among them –have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials- including photographs, films, tap recordings, and field notes- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now, through the two organizations that he has founded-the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project- Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the youngers.
Generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet. Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.
小题1:Many scholars are making efforts to _____.
A.promote global languages
B.rescue the disappearing languages
C.search for language communities
D.set up languages research organizations.
小题2:What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Having first records of the languages
B.Writing books on language searching
C.Telling stories about language users
D.Linking with the native speakers
小题3:What is Turin’s book based on?
A.The cultural statics in India.
B.The documents available at Yale.
C.His language research in Britain.
D.His personal experience in Nepal.
小题4:Which of the following best describe Turin’s  Work?
A.Write sell and donate.
B.Record,repeat and reward.
C.Collect,protect and reconnect.
D.Design, experiment and report.

I had worried myself sick over Simon’s mother coming to see me. I was a new      , and I gave an honest account of the students’ work. In Simon’s case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn’t read his own handwriting.        he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his       .
So when Simon’s mother entered the room, my palms(手掌心) were sweating. I was completely       for her lisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech.        me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he       me, he had began to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had        spent an afternoon at a friend’s house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the      I had nurtured(培养) in her son. She kissed me again and left.
I sat, stunned (惊呆), for about half an hour,       what had just happened. How did I make such a life-changing difference to that boy without        knowing it? What I finally came to        was one day, several months before, when some students were         reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke         , and to encourage her to raise her voice, L had sai, “Speak up. Simon’s the expert on this. He is the        one you have to convince, and he can’t hear you in the        of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention,      more, and became happy. And it was all because he      to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed        was the one who took the last seat that day.
It taught me the most      lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I’m thankful that it came        and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.
