Anyone who wants to buy a gun in California will have to wait for 2 weeks. Four people waited for 15 days to buy guns. Then they robbed a store and shot 3 people .
Congress(国会) is now trying to pass a law that will make everyone wait to buy a gun. Many people do not want this law. Others are glad it might happen. California is one of the longest waiting times for someone to buy a gun. A gun dealer said that this waiting time does not seems to do much good．He has not seen crime(犯罪) go away because of it.
One good thing that has happened with the waiting time to buy a gun is a smaller number of suicide (自杀) . a lot of suicides are with a gun. In California, there are less suicides by gun than in other places. One reason to make people wait to buy a gun is to make sure the guns are not sold to criminals(罪犯). Last year, this check stopped 2,400 guns from being sold to criminals. This check does not stop anyone else from buying a gun.
Many criminals buy guns on the street and not in a store… some people think that a law like this will not do any good．But other people think that if only one person is stopped from getting a gun, then this law is worth it.
1.A long waiting time to buy in California has led to ___.
A．a good gun control B．less suicides by gun
C．less shop robbery D．a sharp fall of gun sales
2.If congress passed the law, ____.
A．no one could kill himself
B．there would be no gun deals
C．one would see more crimes go away
D．criminals couldn’t easily get guns in a store
3.From the passage we can infer that ___.
A．California is the only state to have a waiting time to buy guns
B．Congress will surely fail to pass the law to have a waiting time to buy guns
C．Different states can have some different laws in the United States
D．No laws can cover all the states in the United States of America

He Made It!
One Sunday, Gavin, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Gavin was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
Gavin had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.
Using his skis, Gavin built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.
By that evening, Gavin was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Gavin did the only thing he could — he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.
The next day, Gavin went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Gavin went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Gavin was saved.
Gavin might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode (一期节目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.
When Grylls heard about Gavin’s amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Gavin had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Gavin had to work to stay alive.
1.What happened to Gavin one Sunday afternoon?
A. He hurt his eyes B. He caught a cold.
C. He got lost. D. He broke his skis.
2.How did Gavin keep himself warm?
A. He found a shelter. B. He built a snow cave.
C. He lighted some branches. D. He kept on skiing.
3.On Tuesday, Gavin ______.
A. got stuck in the snow
B. stayed where he was
C. returned to his shelter safely
D. was saved by a searcher
4.Gavin left Grylls a very deep impression because he ______.
A. was very hardworking
B. watched Grylls’ TV program regularly
C. did the right things in the dangerous situation
D. created some tips for survival

I was twenty-two, and in Bolivia. I’d been to every other country in South America, and now I was set on getting into Chile, the last on the list.
After several days, I reached the hills. It was cold, and even the distant mountains were clear. The days were lonely, but one evening I met Filomeno and his fellow teachers. They tried to persuade me not to go to Chile, saying it was a bad place, and that I would be killed. I didn’t believe them. I knew nothing of the current pol
itics; I just wanted to go there.
So I walked into the mountains, feeling excited, and came to a sign with the word "Chile" on it. A frightening soldier appeared, stuck a gun in my back, and pushed me down a slope to the police station. The police chief then told me, "There’s nothing for you here." I explained that I had come to see this beautiful country. But he was annoyed.
In the evening they filled me with food. There was laughter, and I was less tense. Then the police chief took me to a tiny cell. I lay down on the mattress (垫子). Even though I had no light and none of my possessions, I felt euphoric. At least I had arrived! And what a story I’d have to tell! The next morning I was released, and I was told that Chile didn’t want me. Throwing my belongings into my backpack, I shouted and screamed at the soldiers. After all this effort I was being sent home! I stomped (以重踏步方式走) towards Bolivia expecting to feel a bullet. But I’d be back! I told myself.
1.The author went to Chile to ______.
A. visit his friend Filomeno B. settle there forever
C. complete his trip plan D. risk his life
2.The underlined word "euphoric" in Paragraph 4 most probably means "______".
A. terrible B. shamed C. bored D. excited

D. his friends had stopped him from going to Chile
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A. An exciting fight with soldiers in Chile.
B. How the author escaped from Chile.
C. An adventure in Chile.
D. Why the author went to Chile.
