题型:不详难度:来源:
When Chato’s barking didn’t stir Jerrica Seals, the recently adopted dog tried nibbling on the teenager’s leg to get the girl out of the burning house.
“No one was hurt.” Fort Myers firefighters responded at about 7:00 a.m.
Five people lived in the Garcia’s home. That was neighbor Janice Hamilton’s main concern when she looked out of her window Friday and saw the flames. “I just threw my pants on to run outside and make sure they knew how many people lived there,” Hamilton said. “It was scary.”
“Seals called me screamingly,” said Leticia Vega, 36, the sister of Seals’ boyfriend, Javier Garcia, 23, who owns the house. “She said the dog woke her up barking, jumped on the bed and bit her on the leg.”
It is said that Garcia’s brother brought Chato home several weeks ago after the animal wandered onto a Lehigh Acres construction site. Since then, Vega said, Chato had been mostly quiet until it mattered. “He doesn’t usually bark.” Vega said. “He’s really friendly.”
According to deputy fire chief Steve Clyatt, possibly the fire started because of an improper extension cord(电缆) used on a window air conditioner. More than half of the house was burned down. There was extensive smoke and water damage in the remainder of the structure. Estimates (估计)for repair costs were unavailable. “I’d say it’s unlikely they will recover this, but I’ve been surprised before.” Clyatt said.
小题1:Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Janice Hamilton Helps Save Neighbors
B.Firefighters Put out House Fire
C.A Dog Saves the Whole Family from House Fire
D.Family Needs Help Due to House Fire
小题2:The underlined word “they” in the third paragraph most probably refers to _______.
A.other neighborsB.Hamilton’s family members
C.Vega and her brother GarciaD.the firefighters
小题3:By saying “I’d say it’s unlikely they will recover this, but I’ve been surprised before.” in the
last paragraph, Clyatt means _______.
A.it’s a wonder that Seals survived the fireB.the house was badly damaged
C.such a big fire was seldom seenD.Chato is a very clever dog
小题4:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned?
A.The person who called the firefighters.
B.The possible cause of the accident.
C.The relationship between Seals and Garcia.
