      On a stormy day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking outto the sea carefully, he

saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were beingpulled out to sea.

      Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat tosearch a football. Once they’d

rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrellatied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the

boat into open water. The pair panicked and triedto row back to shore. But they were no match for

it and the boat was out of control.

      Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.

      “Everything went quiet in my head,” Tim recalls（回忆）. “I’m trying to figure out howto

swim to the boys in a straight line.”

      Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yardsor so, he raised his head

to judge his progress. “At one point, I consideredturning back,” he says. “I wondered if I was

putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes ofstruggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys,

“Take down the umbrella!”

      “Let’s aim for the pier（码头）,” Jack said. Tim turned the boattoward it. Soon afterward,

waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink.“Can you guys swim?” he cried. “A little bit,”

the boys said.

      Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer andfaster for him to pull the boys

toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearinglife jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam

toward land as water washed over the boys’faces.

      “Are we almost there?” they asked again and again. “Yes,” Tim toldthem each time.

      After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.

35. Why did the two boys go to the sea?

      A. To go boatrowing                        B. To get back theirfootball.

      C. To check hisdistance from the boys.     D. To ask the boys totake down the umbrella.

38. How can the two boys finally reach thepier?

      A. They were dragged tothe pier by Tim.

      LONDON—A British judge on Thursday sentenceda businessman who sold fake（假冒的）

bomb detectors（探测器）to 10 years in prison, saying the manhadn’t cared about potentially

deadly consequences.

      It is believed that James McCormick got about $ 77.8 million fromthe sales of his

detectors—which were based on a kind of golfball finder—to countries including Iraq,Belgium

and Saudi Arabia.

      McCormick, 57, was convicted（判罪）of cheats last month and sentencedThursday at the

Old Bailey court in London.

      “Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of uselessequipment simply for huge profit

promoted a false sense of security and in allprobability materially contributed to causing death

and injury to innocent people,” Judge Richard Honetold McCormick. “You have neither regret,

nor shame, nor any sense of guilt.”

      The detectors, sold for up to $ 42, 000 each, were said to be ableto find such dangerous

objects as bombs under water and from the air. Butin fact they “lacked any grounding in science”

and were of no use.

      McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to thepolice in Kenya, the prison

service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and theborder control in Thailand.

      “I never had any bad results from customers,” he said.

      Home to me means a sense of familiarity andnostalgia（怀旧）. It’s fun to come home.It

looks the same. It smells the same. You’ll realizewhat’s changed is you. Home is where we can

remember pain, love and some other experiences: Weparted here; My parentsmet here; Iwon

three championships here.

      If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of myfirst home. I walk in the door

and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-topwooden table. To the right of the living room is

my first bedroom. It’s empty, but it’s where myearliest memories are.

      There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays andwhere I cried on

Halloween—when I didn’t want to wear the skirtmy mother made for me. I always liked standing

on that table because it made me feel tall andstrong. If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite

room in the house, my parents’ room. It is simple:a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of

the wall next to a television and a couple ofphotos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is

my safe zone. I can jump on itanytime—waking up my parents if I am scaredor if I have an

important announcement that cannot wait until themorning.

      I’m lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists inmy mind and heart, on a

physical property（住宅）on West 64^th street on thewestern edge of Los Angeles. It is proof I lived,

I grew, and I learned.

      Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I gohome. I know it’s where

I’ll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings. Ipurposely leave the window open at night

because I know I’ll be blamed by Mom. But I don’tmind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I’mhome.

      Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according toa study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heartand the chance of someone feeling fear.

      Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely tofeel a sense of fear at the

moment when their hearts arecontracting（收缩）and pumping blood around theirbodies,

compared with the point when the heartbeat isrelaxed. Scientists say the results suggested that the

heart is able to influence how the brain respondsto a fearful event, depending on which point it is

at in its regular cycle of contraction andrelaxation.

      Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said,“Our study show for the

first time that the way in which we deal with fearis different depending on when we see fearful

pictures in relation to our heart.

      The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fearas they were shown pictures

of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The studyshowed that fearful faces are better noticed when

the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thusour hearts can also affect what we see and what

we don’t see—and guide whether we seefear.”

      To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used abrain scanner（扫描仪）to

show how the brain influences the way the heartchanges a person’s feeling of fear.

      “We have found an important mechanism by which the heart andbrain ‘speak’ to each other

to change our feelings and reduce fear” Dr.Garfinkel said.

      “We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear isdealt with and ways that it

could be reduced, we may be able to develop moresuccessful treatments for anxiety disorders,

and also for those who may be suffering fromserious stress disorder.”

47. What is the finding of the study?

      A. One’s heart affectshow he feels fear.

      B. Fear is a result ofone’s relaxed heartbeat.

      C. Fear has somethingto do with one’s health.

      D. One’s fastheartbeats are likely to cause fear.

48. The study was carried out by analyzing_____.    

      A. volunteers’heartbeats when they saw terrible pictures

      B. the time volunteerssaw fearful pictures and their health conditions

      C. volunteers’reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brainscans

      D. different picturesshown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication

49. Which of the following is closest inmeaning to “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?

      A. Order              B. System            C. Machine           D.Treatment.

50. This study may contribute to_____.
