2a Listen and number the pictures［1-5］.

Boy：Yesterday was a terrible day. My alarm didn’t go off so I woke up late. It was seven thirty when I woke up, and I needed to be at school by eight! I ran to the bus stop…but, I still missed the bus. It was eight thirty when I got to school. My teacher was angry and I felt bad all day. At four thirty, it was time to go home. I was waiting for the bus when…all of a sudden…it began to rain heavily. It was like…a really crazy rainstorm! I thought I had an umbrella in my schoolbag, so I kept trying to look for it. I was so busy looking for the umbrella that I didn’t see a car coming. And it got water all over me! I was waiting like that…completely wet…for maybe almost an hour. Finally, the bus came and brought me home. I took a hot shower and ate some warm food. It felt so good to be home!

男孩：昨天是可怕的一天。我的闹钟没有响，因此我醒来晚了。当我醒来时是七点半了，我需要在八点前到校！我向公共汽车站跑去……但是，我仍然错过了公共汽车。当我到校时是八点半了。我的老师很生气，结果我一整天感到不舒服。在四点半，到该回家的时间了。我正在等公共汽车，这时……突然……开始下起大雨来。就像是……一场十分猛烈的暴风雨！我想起我的书包里有一把伞，因此我一直在努力寻找它。我如此忙着找雨伞，以至于我没有看到一辆小汽车过来。它溅了我一身水！我就那样在等……完全湿了……也许等了差不多一个小时。最后，公共汽车来了并且带我回了家。我洗了个热水澡，吃了些暖和的食物。在家的感觉很好！

1. What was the weather like before the heavy rain started?

2. What was the neighborhood like after the storm?

The Storm Brought People Closer Together

Ben could hear strong winds outside his home in Alabama. Black clouds were making the sky very dark. With no light outside, it felt like midnight. The news on TV reported that a heavy rainstorm was in the area.

Everyone in the neighborhood was busy. Ben’s dad was putting pieces of wood over the windows while his mom was making sure the flashlights and radio were working. She also put some candles and matches on the table.

Ben was helping his mom make dinner when the rain began to beat heavily against the windows. After dinner, they tried to play a card game, but it was hard to have fun with a serious storm happening outside.

Ben could not sleep at first. He finally fell asleep when the wind was dying down at around 3:00 a.m. When he woke up, the sun was rising. He went outside with his family and found the neighborhood in a mess. Fallen trees, broken windows and rubbish were everywhere. They joined the neighbors to help clean up the neighborhood together. Although the storm broke many things apart, it brought families and neighbors closer together.

暴风雨把人们的距离拉近了

在阿拉巴马州，本能听到他家外面的强劲的风声。乌云使天空变得黑压压的。外面没有光亮，感觉就像半夜一样。电视里播报有强烈的暴风雨已经到了这个地区。

社区里的每个人都在忙碌着。本的爸爸正在把一块块木头钉在窗户上，而他的妈妈正在确认和收音机都能正常使用。她还把一些蜡烛和火柴放在桌子上。

当雨开始对着窗户猛烈地敲打时，本在帮助他的妈妈做晚饭。晚饭后，他们原本想打一下牌，但外面的暴风雨太大了，没有心情打牌了。

起初本睡不着。在大约凌晨3点风逐渐变弱时他终于睡着了。当他醒来时，太阳正冉冉升起。他和家人一起来到外面，发现社区脏乱不堪。到处都是被风吹倒的树、被砸破的窗户还有垃圾。他们加入到街坊邻居中，帮着一起把社区打扫干净。虽然这场暴风雨破坏了许多东西，但是它把家人和邻居们的距离拉得更近了。

Section B

1b Listen and write short answers to the questions.

John：Hey, Kate, why weren’t you at the school basketball competition yesterday? I called you so many times, but you didn’t answer.

Kate：Sorry, John. I left my phone at home.

John：What were you doing at the time of the competition?

Kate：Well, I left my house late and when the competition started, I was still making my way to school.

John：Then what happened?

Kate：When I got to the bus stop, I realized that my bag was still at home!

John：But why didn’t you just go home to get your bag?

Kate：I did, but while I was running back home, I saw a dog by the side of the road and it was hurt.

John：Oh, so I’m sure you helped the dog. I know how much you love animals.

Kate：Yes, I wanted to call the Animal Helpline, but I didn’t have my phone so I had to wait for someone to walk by. Then I used his phone to call the helpline.

John：OK. No wonder you didn’t make it to the competition.

Kate：Yes, I’m so sorry I wasn’t there to cheer you on, but I’m happy that your team won!

听录音。写出这些问题的简短答案。

约翰：嘿，凯特，你昨天为什么没有看学校的篮球赛？我给你打了那么多次电话，但是你没有接。

凯特：对不起，约翰。我把手机落在家里了。

约翰：比赛时你在做什么？

凯特：噢，我离开家很晚了，当比赛开始的时候，我仍然在去学校的路上。

约翰：后来发生什么事了？

凯特：当我到达公共汽车站时，我意识到我的书包仍然在家里！

约翰：但是你为什么没有直接回家去拿你的书包呢？

凯特：我回了，但是在我往回跑的路上，我看见一条狗在路边，它受了伤。

约翰：噢，因此我确信你帮助了那条狗。我知道你有多么热爱动物。

凯特：是的，我想打电话给动物服务热线，但是我没有电话，因此我不得不等着有人路过。然后我用他的电话拨打了服务热线。

约翰：好的。难怪你没有赶上比赛。

凯特：是的，非常抱歉我没有在那儿给你加油，但是我很高兴你们队获胜！

1c Listen again.Number the events［1-6］in the order they happened.

…

2b Read the passage and answer the questions.

1.What are the two events in the passage?

2. When did they happen?

Do You Remember What You Were Doing?

People often remember what they were doing when they heard the news of important events in history. In America, for example, many people remember what they were doing on April 4, 1968. This was an important event in American history. On this day, Dr. Martin Luther King was killed. Although some people may not remember who killed him, they remember what they were doing when they heard the news.

Robert Allen is now over 50, but he was a school pupil at that time. “It was a bright, sunny day,” Robert remembers. “We were having fun in the playground when the school bell rang. Our teacher said, ‘Dr. King died just 10 minutes ago.’ We were completely surprised!” School closed for the day, Robert and his friends walked home in silence.

More recently, most Americans remember what they were doing when the World Trade Center in New York was taken down by terrorists. Even the date-September 11, -has meaning to most Americans.

This was a day Kate Smith will never forget. She remembers working in her office near the two towers. “My friend shouted that a plane just hit the World Trade Center! I didn’t believe him at first, but then I looked out the window and realized that it was true. I was so scared that I could hardly think clearly after that.”

阅读短文，回答问题。

你记得当时你在做什么吗？

当人们听到一个重大历史事件的消息时，他们通常都记得自己正在做什么。例如，在美国，许多人都记得在1968年4月4日他们在做什么。这是美国历史上的一个重大事件。在这一天，马丁·路德·金博士被杀害了。尽管有些人可能不记得是谁杀害了他，但他们都记得当听到这个消息时他们在做什么。

罗伯特·艾伦现在50多岁了，但那时他还是一个小学生。“我当时和我的母一起在家里，”罗伯特回忆说 “当我们从广播中听到这个新闻时，我们正在厨房里吃晚饭。那个新闻记者说’金博士就在十分钟前去世了’。我的父母都十分震惊！在那之后，我的父母没有说话,我们默默地吃完了剩下的晚餐。”

最近，绝大多数美国人都记得当纽约的世贸大厦被恐怖分子摧毁时他们正在做什么。甚至9月11日这个日子对大多数美国人来说都具有特殊的含义。

这是凯特·史密斯永远不会忘记的一天。她记得当时她正在距两座塔楼不远的办公室里工作。我的朋友惊呼一架飞机刚刚撞上了世贸大楼！我最初不相信他，但接着我往窗外看，意识到那是真的。我是那么害怕以至于我几乎不能清楚地想起那之后的事了。
