I was sleeping soundly last night when I was awakened by someone’s groans(呻吟).I listened, and heard it was from Sam, a student from Africa.I really wanted to go on sleeping, as I had insomnia(失眠)and had just fallen asleep, but I couldn’t because Sam groaned louder and louder, showing he was seriously ill.

  At that time, Robbie, a student from China, also got up to help.We found some pills, got some water, and helped him sit up to take them, hoping this would make his pain go down a little and get over the difficult time.If only daytime would come soon, everything would become easier.

  Things went contrary(相反)to our wishes.Sam’s condition developed from bad to worse.We telephoned the emergency service, and in no time an ambulance stopped in front of our gate.We helped the medical(醫(yī)療)workers carry Sam to the vehicle, and then both Robbie and I got in and took Sam to the hospital.

  We helped him go through many medical examinations.After all kinds of tests, we were told that the final diagnosis(診斷)was appendicitis(盲腸炎).Luckily, Sam didn’t need an operation because we brought him to the hospital in time.He got timely treatment.

  After Sam felt much better, we rushed back to prepare ourselves for the class.We were a little tired, but we had certainly done something good, something right.

“I’m   37   tomorrow,” he said.
“I know.” My __38____ was almost a whisper. I was   39   at myself for being so weak, but I wasn’t about to cry.

The next morning I   49   , looked at my alarm clock, and realized he had left 50  ago. We never even said goodbye.
Goodbye, Rocky! Although he may have been many miles away, I knew he heard me, even if it was only an answer in his heart.

科目:初中英語 來源:2012年人教初中英語九年級上 Unit 4 練習卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Sophia Wu, 25, is a young Chinese woman who does business with her family in Santiago, Chile (智利). On February 27, she experienced a night that she will never forget.

  "I was asleep and was woken up by powerful shaking at around 3:30 in the morning. My whole room was moving and I couldn't stand still. I wanted to run downstairs and go outside, but suddenly the wall got broken and the lights in the room went out. The room became so shaky that I couldn't move at all."

  That night an 8.8-magnitude (震級) earthquake hit Chile. Buildings and bridges fell down. Electricity (電) and water services shut down. The Chilean Red Cross reported that about 500,000 homes were destroyed and more than 800 people died.

  The earthquake has been the fifth strongest since 1900. More than 90 aftershocks (余震) followed the earthquake. A tsunami (海嘯) was set off in the Pacific Ocean by the earthquake.

  Scientists say that there are about 500,000 earthquakes in the world each year. Of these, only 20% are felt, and 100 of them cause damage.

  So far, scientists haven't found a way to predict earthquakes. But you can learn to protect yourself during an earthquake. The most important thing to remember is to drop, cover and hold on. So remember to drop to the floor, get under something for cover and hold onto something strong during the shaking.
