The Khadra Hills rise immediately behind the village, to a height of one hundred and fifty meters. A simple, good-hearted old man, whose name was Jalpur, farmed two small

35、fields on the very edge of those hills. From his fields he could see everything up and down the coast. If the weather was kind and the harvest was good, Jalpur could live happily enough not well, but happily. When there was little or no rain, then he came close to the line between a life which was t

36、oo hard and death itself.Last year the weather had been so kind and the harvest promised to be so good, that Jalpur had been wondering whether he could sell all that he had and live with his son farther up the coast. He had been thinking about doing this for some years. It was his dearest wish to sp

37、end his last days with his son and his family. But he would go only if he could give; he would not go if it meant taking food out of the mouth of his grandchildren.

Jalpur would have shouted, but the people were too far away to hear. He would have run down the hill, but he was too old to run. He was prepari

39、ng to do anything to save the people of Shundagarh, so he did the only thing that he could do. He set fire to his corn. Immediately smoke was rising high.

In order to earn a little money he had w

45、ritten the story of his life, but not many copies of the bock had been sold in the shop, and Savage was living from hand to mouth. As a result of his lack of food he became very ill, but after a time, because of the skill of the doctor who had looked after him, he got well again. After a week or two

46、 the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his visits, but poor Savage hadnt any money and couldnt pay it. The doctor waited for another month and sent the bill again. But still no money came. After several weeks he sent it to him again asking for his money. In the end he came to Savages house and asked

47、him for payment, saying to Savage, “You know you owe your life to me and I expected some gratitude from yon.“I agree,“ said Savage, “that I owe my life to you, and to prove to you that I am not ungrateful for your work I will give my life to you.“ With these words he handed to him two copies entitled THE LIFE OF RICHARD SAVAGE.（分数：4.00）(1).The best title for this text should be _.A A Poor English WriterB A Skilled DoctorC A Life for a LifeD The Life of Richard Savage（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2
