On March 18, 34-year-old Lance Karlson was walking on the beach and looking for somewhere toswim in Geographe Bay when he saw what he thought was a stingray (黄貂鱼) leap from the water.
Realizing the creature was, in fact, an octopus (章鱼), he started filming it — just in time for the angry octopus to launch itself at him. He immediately felt a sharp pain across his left arm, followed by a second strike across his neck and upper back. His goggles (护目镜) fogged and the water around him turned dark with what he thought might have been octopus ink as he struggled back toward the shore.
"I was confused — it was more of a shock than a fright," said Karlson, "I might have hit on its home." Within a minute, a perfect imprint of an octopus tentacle (触手) appeared on Karlson's neck and back.
A former volunteer lifeguard, Karlson rushed back to his hotelroom to find something acidic to put on the wound. All his family could grab was Coca-Cola, which his wife poured over his back and the pain disappeared.
"The pain went away and more than anything since then, it's been more the physical hit that was painful.... The imprint on my neck is more from the physical hit, and I guess it makes complete sense when you look at the video I took," he said.
Karlson said he'd never seen an octopus that close before and watched Netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher" after the incident to learn more about the species.
"They are beautiful creatures and I really hope this promotes more interest in octopuses as opposed to fear of them. I think this is a fascinating creature with clearly some very strong emotions just like we do as humans," he added.
4. When did the octopus attack Karlson?
A. When he was swimming in the bay.
B. When he was shooting the octopus.
C. When he was looking for some fish.
D. When he was fighting against the octopus.
5. What plays an essential role in reducing Karlson's pain?
A. The lifeguard's timely help.
B. Karson's wife's quick action.
C. The family members' efforts.
D. Karlson’s knowledge of first aid.
6. What does Karlson learn from his experience?
A. The octopus is dangerous.
B. People should get away from the octopus.
C. People need know more about the octopus.
D. The physical hit from the octopus is painful.
7. Which of the following might be the best title?
A. Pain from Strong Attack
B. First Aid for Octopus' Strike
C. Face to Face with Angry Octopus
D. Under Sea with Dangerous Creature
C
It all happened one afternoon in Carl's backyard a few years ago. We had just finished playing stickball, and I was about to go home.
“Wait a minute,” Carl yelled. He ran into his house and cameback with a book for me to take home and read. All he said was, “See if you like it.”
I said ly nothing. I kept the book for a couple of weeks and then returned it unread. Carl never asked me if I liked it or not. During the following two years Carl lent me three more books. Each time I returned them unread.
A few days after graduating from high school, Carl asked, “Benny, which college are you going to?”
“I'm not going to college.” I said.
“Why not?” he asked.
“Because my father can't afford the tuition (学费).” I answered.
“Is that it?” Carl asked. “Yes,” I said.
I lied. I had no intention of going back to school now that I was out. The following day, Carl knocked on my door and handed me a check for seventy-five dollars from his father along with the bookMartin Eden.“I think that should do it.” he said.
Once again I was in shock. I was working full-time in my brother's bakery. I attended two classes atWayneUniversitypart-time at night. Halfway through the semester, after receiving failing grades on exams and essays, I decided there was no way I would ever become a good student and get satisfactory grades. I dropped out of college.
One day, curious, I picked up the book, thinking Carl was trying to tell me something. Despite difficulty, I pressed on. By the time I finished the book, I understood why: the main character, Martin Eden, had my own poor educational background, but managed to educate himself and become a published author.
8. What do we know about the author?
A. He often told lies.
B. He quit school unwillingly.
C. He had thought little of education before.
D. He became a published author.

B. Reading is the journey of the soul.
C. Reading makes a person better known.
D.Readingopens up new opportunities.
11. What is the best title for the text?

D. A wise book

It was five years ago that something unforgettable happened. My wife and I celebrated our 40thwedding anniversary that year. It was a lovely event hosted by our sons for us. My wonderful friends from the past surprised us with gifts and congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove fromOntariointoAlberta, then southward intoGlacierNational ParkinMontana, and continued toYellowstoneNational Park.
It was a cold spring day, and theBeartooth Highwayhad opened for the season just days before. Alongside the
road, there was still a great amount of snow there. The scenery was so impressive that we made lots of stops to record memories with my camera. At the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the centre of my camera lens.
There were not many cars on the road. Sometimes, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, who wore dirty clothes, parked behind our cars. As he approached us, his only words were, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife.” I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could express our gratitude. The photo he took is one of the most valuable and prized of our trip.
I learned my lesson somewhere I least expected it. We should never judge a man by his appearance. If the motorcycle driver reads this story and remembers the situation, we would like to say “Thank you” to him.
12. According to the passage, what do we know about the trip?
A. It was taken by train to the west.
B. It was a suggestion from their friends.
C. It was in the late autumn five years ago.
D. It was a gift for their wedding anniversary.
13. Why was the author nervous when the motorcycle driver offered to take a picture?
A. He could have lost the camera.
B. His wife might not be satisfied with the view there.
C. The motorcycle driver would borrow the camera.
D. The motorcycle driver might not be good at the taking pictures.
14. Which of the following best describes the driver of the motorcycle?
A. Kind and straightforward.
B. Rich and generous.
C. Creative and capable.
D. Careful and admirable.
15. Which of the following can be concluded from the passage?
A. No pains, no gains.
B. Seeing is believing.
C. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
D. The longest journey begins with the first step.
