Here’s a surprising fact: Of the 1.1 million firefighters in the United States, about 780,000 are volunteers. Roughly a third of the population is ________ by mostly- or all-volunteer fire departments.

Also ________, perhaps. Sometimes they have to pay for their own gear.

I ________ this because I volunteer as a firefighter in Durango, Colorado. I responded to more than 50 calls in 2014, everything from ________ to car accidents. In that period, I spent close to $1,000 on optional gear not supplied by my ________, things like higher-quality flashlights, knives, and better gloves, which make my ________ easier.

Yesterday, a ________ was introduced in Congress that would give a significant tax break to those who volunteer their time as ________ responders. I hope it passes, not because it will put some money in my pocket ________, hey, (that’ll be nice) but because it will ease the financial burden on volunteers and acknowledge their time commitment. I believe it will ________ more people to help.

And we ________ that.

In ________ areas where population density is low and calls for fire and EMS services are relatively rare, it just doesn’t ________ to have career firefighters on the staff 24/7 (全天候). ________, volunteers are used to fill in the ________.

Without volunteers, the whole system would collapse.

There’s a T-shirt that’s popular among us, reading “For Pride, Not ________.” We volunteer because we know our ________ need us. We don’t need a small tax break.

Mother Teresa was born on August 26th,1910 in Skopje, Macedonia. She always wrote her birthday as 27th of August because it was the day of her baptism(洗禮), which was always more important to her than her birthday.

In 1950, she set up a religious organization in Calcutta. The organization provided food for the poor people and then she set up hospitals, schools, youth centers, and homes for the sick and the dying poor. It now has branches in 50 Indian cities and 30 other countries.

Having experienced a shocking electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, James Franco’s world became completely dark and quiet for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.

One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up 20 minutes later, lying face down in muddy water. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a tree and a muddy road. When Mrs. Franco came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.

The news of James regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a compellent answer as to why this should happen. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since James lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.

1.The reason why James attempted to kill himself was that ________.

A. a terrible electrical accident happened to him

B. nobody in the world cared about him

C. he was struck by the lightning once more

D. he had to live in a dark and silent world

2.What was James doing when he was struck by the lightning?

A. Putting an end to his life.

B. Sheltering from the rain under a tree.

C. Taking a walk with a stick.

D. Lying on the ground.

3.What does the underlined word “compellent” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. convincingB. wrongC. unexplainedD. true

4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. A Terrible Electrical Accident

B. What a Sudden Shock

C. An Unforgettable Experience

D. James Franco and His Wife
