Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in ending the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Bieber"s bedroom and to watch him secretly. Then she waited alone for three hours while armed police prepared to storm the building.
She said: "I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in the car park I was so glad they were there.”
The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious of the guest who checked in at 3 pm the day before New Year"s Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face. She said: "He didn"t seem to want to talk too much and make any eye contact （接触）." Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her bosses Margaret, 64, and husband Stan McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 pm.
Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 pm to make sure that this was the wanted man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki every 15 minutes.
"It was about ten past two in the morning when the phone went again and a policeman said ‘Would you go and make yourself known to the armed officers outside?". My heart missed a beat."
Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers through passages and staircases to the top floor room and handed over the key.
"I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that part of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see into the man"s room, but I could see the passage. The police kept shouting at the man to come out with his hands showing. Then suddenly he must have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was handcuffed （带上手铐）。

In April, Jean finished the Boston Marathon in 1 hour 34 minutes 22 seconds. That’s about 33 minutes faster than the winning male runner! She competed on the track, too. She was second in the 800 meter wheelchair race at the 1992 Olympics.
Jean doesn’t like to be told she’s brave. “I’m in sports because I’m a competitive person!” Jean was born with spina befida(脊柱裂), a birth illness that damages the spine（脊椎）. She began to use a wheelchair to get around in high school. Then she tried wheelchair race and was amazed.” Players crashed into each other and fell out of their chairs,” she says, “It was fun.”
Jean tried other wheelchair sports. At the University of Illinois, her wheelchair basketball team won two national titles.
Now Jean coaches and teaches. She tries to get people to set goals. “When I sign my autograph（亲笔签名）, says Jean, “I write, dream big and work hard.”
小题1:What made Jean take part in sports?

| C．She was strong. | D．She was disabled. |
| A．to train or give instruction and advice | B．to experiment |

Michael, a typical American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal computer terminal in order to connect with the office. After work, he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder, or plays baseball on the computer. On many days, Michael doesn’t talk to any other human beings, and he doesn’t see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his life style is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from contact with our fellow human beings.
The world of business is one area in which technology is isolating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their jobs at display terminals in their own homes. They would never have to actually see the people they’re dealing with. In addition, the way employees are paid will change. Workers’ salaries will be automatically paid into their
bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their check. Personal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts. Another area that technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for instance, was once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For many people now, however, music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social events. Now fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home. Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.
小题1:After work, Michael likes to ________.
| A．listen to music at the concert hall |
| B．watch a movie in his living room |
| C．run a program on his computer in his office |
| D．play baseball with his workmates |
| A．Clerks will be able to work at home. |
| B．One can play baseball on the computer. |
| C．One can listen to music without disturbing others. |
| D．One can borrow books from libraries at home. |
| A．Michael is a person full of imagination and he can make his dreams come true |
| B．Michael is not a real person but the lifestyle does exist |
| C．Michael has ambitions but he can’t make his dreams come true |
| D．Michael is a person full of imagination and his lifestyle is common nowadays |
| A．Games and sports. | B．Personal banking. |
| C．Music and films. | D．International business. |
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 41 in with severe burns on his face，neck and arms．We have called for a（n） 42 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle．” Seattle was 350 miles from his college，so we knew immediately this was 43 ．
The doctor described the 44 ，which caused the burns．At 6 am，our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment．When they 45 the charcoal（木炭），it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline（petrol）．The flames 46 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head．
47 ，one of the boys was quick-minded，grasped my son，and 48 him on the grass．While it saved his life，it was not in 49 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars（伤疤）．
After he 50 from the treatments，the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery（整容）for 6 months 51 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling．So，he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns．
When I was a child, my mother told my sister，who had a 10-inch, very 52__ scar on her arm，“Nancy，if you ignore the scar，other people will ignore it．It does not mean they will not 53 it，but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you．’’
I 54 this wisdom on to my son．He took my advice to 55 and returned to school with his head held high--glad he was alive．
By the end of the six-month waiting period，he decided that the scars did not 56 , so he made the 57 to give up any plastic surgery．
We all have “scars” that we believe 58 people to keep away from us．And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked different，or dressed differently，people would like us better．
But you see，people will only judge you by your looks，or your clothes，if you are judging yourself by these same 59 standards．Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value 60 yourself，and your beauty will shine through．
