It was no surprise that Urzua was the last of the 33 miners to leave the mine.
Urzua --- after shaking hands with rescue workers ---- climbed into a capsule barely wider than a man’s shoulders at 9:46 and was hauled up (拖上来) from a narrow hole drilled through 2,000 feet of rock. He arrived at the top 11 minutes later.
“We have done what the entire world was waiting for,” he told Chilean President Sebastian Pinera immediately after his rescue. “The 69 days that we fought so hard were not in vain.” Pinera greeted Urzua, saying “You have been rescued, coming out last like a good leader… You have no idea how all Chileans share with
you your hardships, your hope, and your joy. You are an inspiration.” With Urzua by his side, the president led the crowd in singing the national anthem.Robinson Marquez once worked with Urzua in a nearby mine. He described Urzua as a calm, professional person and a born leader. “He is very protective of his men and obviously loves them. He wouldn’t have left until all of his men were safely above ground,” Marquez said.
Under Urzua’s leadership, the men stretched an emergency food supply meant to last just 48 hours over two and a half weeks, taking tiny sips of milk and bites of fish every other day.He described the difficulties of the first days, saying that it took about three hours for the dust to settle before the men could inspect where tons of collapsed rock sealed off (堵住) the main way out. When the rescuers first made contact by drilling a narrow hole into their refuge (避难处), the miners were so excited that everyone wanted to hug the drill hammer.After the collapse, Urzua was the first to speak to Pinera and to urge him not to let him and his men down. “Don’t leave us alone,” he asked the president, who assured the workers that they would not be abandoned, telling them he would do everything he could to get them back to the surface.

小题3:B
小题4:D
解析
小题1:C 计算题。根据第一段They were rescued to safety on October 13, 2010和第三段The 69 days that we fought so hard were not in vain.可知他们是在August 5发生事故,69天以后也就是October 13被救上来。
小题2:A 推理题。根据文章内容可知他遇见困难很镇定,也很乐观,坚定的认为自己会被救上来,也很有才干,而且他是最后一个上来的,说明他很无私。A项自私不是他的性格,故A符合要求。
小题3:B 细节题。根据文章第三段was hauled up (拖上来) from a narrow hole drilled through 2,000 feet of rock.可知B正确。
小题4:D 细节题。根据最后一段2,3行the men stretched an emergency food supply meant to last just 48 hours over two and a half weeks可知D正确。

举一反三
The consumer electronics industry came unbuttoned in Las Vegas this week. At the annual Consumer Electronics Show, companies from around the world unveiled many devices boasting (以拥有…而自豪) touch – sensitive technology, rather than traditional push-button controls.
Motorola, Sony, and LG Electronics all showed off touch-screen phones this week. Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates praised and offered a touch-screen computer, the Surface, related to a flat panel TV for a tabletop. Even camera makers, such as Kodak,included touch-screen LCDs in their devices. Touch-screen tech has been in use for years,but the push to develop and weave it into consumer electronics gathered steam with the June introduction of Apple’s iPhone. “The touch-screen industry is really getting hot,” says Jennifer Colegrove, a senior analyst at iSuppli. “Since the iPhone came out, there are a lot of companies that did not have a relationship with touch screens before that decided, ‘OK, I want to make a touch screen, too.’”
The touch-screen tech ecosystem now includes more than 100 companies specializing in everything from smudge-proof (防污的) screens to sensors (传感器) able to detect fingers before they even contact the screen. Sales of leading touch-screen technologies,such as those used in mobile phones and navigation (航行) devices,are expected to rise to $ 4.4 billion in 2012, up from $ 2.4 billion in 2006,according to iSuppli estimates.

But when it comes to medicine.I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients.After all,the doctor-patient relationship is based on trust,and therefore honesty is essential.Or so I thought.
I had just started working in geriatrics(老年病科).Mr. McMahon was brought in when his belly was found very swollen.I took a medical history from his daughter who’d accompanied him in the ambulance.She’d been his main carer for years.I stood looking at him as she gave a detailed history.“Has he lost any weight recently?”I asked.“Well,it’s funny you should mention that,but yes.”she said slowly.There was silence for a few moments.“Why? What are you worried about?”she asked.I hesitated.She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told her the truth.“Well.we need to prove it’s not cancer.”I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.
Half an hour later, a nurse called me:“Mr. McMahon’s daughter broke down--she said you told her he had cancer.”My heart sank.By the time I arrived at the ward,my consultant was already there,explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed that he had cancer.I stood silently at the end of the bed.My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr. McMahon,she turned to me.“Why on earth did you do that?”she asked in disbelief.I looked at her and bit my lip.“She asked me what I was worried about and I told her.”I said,hanging my head.“And give her more to worry about?”replied my consultant.“You don’t say the word‘cancer’until it’s confirmed.Even if you suspect it,think very carefully before you tell people.”
As it turned out, it wasn’t cancer.But I did learn that when someone is stressed and worried about their loved one they’re sometimes selective in what they hear and as a doctor it’s important to be mindful of this.In being truthful,I’d made the situation worse.
