12、, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Biebers 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

13、car park I was so glad they were there. “ The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious (怀疑 ) of the guest who checked in at 3 pm the day before New Years Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face. She said: “He didnt seem to want to talk too much

14、 and make any eye contact (接触 ).“ Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her boss 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

15、. 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 passage

16、s 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.

22、n she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected, having taken off the anti-theft security alarms. She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr. Lemoyne said. He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions. Luz, 28, was said to have been convict

23、ed of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending, said she had never been in trouble with the police before that. “She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesnt really have any explanation why she did this,“ Miss Duff said. “She didnt intend to steal when she went into the s

24、tore. She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this.“ Judge David Azan fined Luz 50, and warned. “Youve got a criminal

25、 record.

Thats more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty. “I w

31、as on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and sirens going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred

32、miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.“ But Hyde couldnt go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another n

33、earby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene. Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination. At that poin

34、t he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasnt needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panic about. “Just about that time,“ Hyde says, “I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue s

35、moke and oil going everywhere. Hed blown his engine. Now he had to stop.“ “After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didnt have a drivers license.“ That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty a thousand dollars for the new engine not to mention the charges for driv

36、ing without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving. 26 The meaning of “panicked“ in Paragraph 2 is related to _. （ A） shame （ B） hate （ C） anger （ D） fear 27 Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway? （ A） Because he was racing with another driver on the ro

37、ad. （ B） Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene. （ C） Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him. （ D） Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder. 28 Which of the following statements is true? （ A） Someone else was taking care of the injured person. （ B

39、ped by the police officer （ D） paid for the expenses of the accident 30 What is probably the best title for the article? （ A） Losing His Way? （ B） Going My Way? （ C） Fun All the Way? （ D） Help on the Way? 30 I was a freshman in college when I met the Whites. They were completely different from my ow

40、n family, yet I felt at home with them immediately. Jane White and I became friends at school, and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin. In my family, it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened. “Who did this?“ my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen. “This is a

41、ll your fault, Katharine,“ my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke. From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told on each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table. But the Whites didnt worry about who had done what. They picked up the pieces and

42、moved on with their lives. The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died. In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York. The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently turned sixte

43、en. Proud of having a new drivers license, Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip. She showed off her license to everyone she met. The big sisters shared the driving of Sarahs new car during the first part of the trip, but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take ove

44、r. Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat. After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel. She came to a crossroads with a stop sign. Whether she was nervous or just didnt see the sign no one would ever know, but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping. The driver of a large

45、 truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car. Jane was killed immediately. I was slightly injured. The most difficult thing that Ive ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died. Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far wor

46、se for them to lose a child. When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head; Amys leg was broken. They hugged us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters. They wiped away the girls tears and

47、made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches. To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simply said, “Were so glad that youre alive.“ I was astonished. No blame. No accusations. Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driv

48、ing and had run a stop sign. Mrs. White said, “Janes gone, and we miss her terribly. Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back. But Amy has her whole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sisters death?“ They were right. Amy graduated from th

49、e University of California and got married several years ago. She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students. Shes also a mother of two little girls of her own, the elder one named Jane. 31 How did the authors parents differ from the Whites? （ A） The authors parents were less caring. （ B） The authors parents were less loving. （ C） The authors par
