It started as a special day for Wesley Autrey, a 50-year-old construction worker in New York City. It was about 12:45 P.M., and he was waiting on a subway platform (月台) to take his daughters home before he went to work. He suddenly noticed a man nearby have convulsions (抽搐) and fall down suddenly. Mr. Autrey and two women went to help the stranger. The man, Cameron Hollopeter, managed to get to his feet, but then stumbled (绊倒) at the edge of the platform and fell onto the subway tracks. Mr. Autrey looked up and saw the lights of the subway train coming near through the tunnel.
Mr. Autrey jumped onto the track immediately. He realized that he didn’t have time to get Mr. Hollopeter and himself back up on the platform before the train arrived, so he lay on top of the man and pressed down as hard as he could. Although the driver tried to stop the train before it reached them, he couldn’t. Five cars passed over them before the train finally stopped. The cars had passed only inches from his head.
New York loves a hero. Mr. Autrey became an overnight hero and was named the “Subway Superman”. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg gave him the Bronze Medallion, the city’s highest honor. He was asked to appear on several TV talk shows. He was also rewarded with money and gifts, such as $10,000 from Donald Trump, a $5,000 gift card from the Gap clothing store, a new Jeep, and Beyonce concert tickets.
How did Autrey react (反应) to all this? He said, “I don’t feel like I did anything great; I just saw someone who needed help. I did what I felt was right”.

Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.
【小题1】Some students like cheating mainly because_________.
A. the material in the test is very difficult
B. they want to do better than the others
C. cheating can make hard things seem very easy
D. they have little time to study their lessons
【小题2】The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.
A. cheating isn’t a good idea
B. why kids cheat in the test
C. some kids can’t pass the test without cheating
D. some kids don’t spend the time studying

A. cheaters are often thought highly of
B. people show no respect for those who cheat
C. parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble
D. kids cheat in the test because of swim practice

In addition to the official basketball world, various other types of basketball are practiced around the world.
Wheelchair Basketball
Wheelchair basketball was invented in 1946 by former American basketball players, who, after wartime injury, wanted once again to experience the excitement of a highly athletic sport within a team environment. It is now played in more than 80 countries by over 25,000 men, women and children with a physical disability which prevents them from playing competitive basketball on their feet.

This kind of basketball, invented by Philip Bryant, has grown from an extremely effective skill improvement game to a very popular, widespread competitive sport.

My grandparents believed that you were either honest or you were not. They had a simple saying hanging on their living-room wall: “Life is like a field of newly fallen snow. Where I choose to walk every step will show.” They didn’t have to talk about it; they showed this truth by the way they lived.
They understood that honesty is an inner(内部的) standard for judging your behavior. Unfortunately, honesty is in short supply today. But it is the real bottom line in every area of society and a discipline (自制能力) we must demand of ourselves.
There’s a story told about a surgical nurse’s first day on the medical team at a well-known hospital. She was responsible(负责) for all surgical instruments and materials during an operation. At the end of the operation, the nurse said to the doctor, “ You’ve only removed 11 sponges(海绵), and we used 12. We need to find the last one.”
“I removed them all,” the doctor assured her. “ No, you didn’t , sir,” insisted the nurse. “ Think of the patient.”
Smiling, the doctor lifted his foot and showed the nurse the twelfth sponge.
So when you know you’re right, you can’t yield. Don’t be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be more intelligent than you are.
Self-respect and a clear awareness (意识)of right and wrong are powerful parts of honesty and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others. Honesty means you do what you do because it’s right and not just fashionable or politically correct. A life of principle, of not easily yielding, will always take you forward. My grandparents taught me that.
【小题1】From the first two paragraphs, we can infer that ______.
A. the author’s grandparents liked snow
B. the author’s grandparents didn’t like chatting
C. the author is worried about the issue of honesty in today’s society
D. Honesty is the most important standard for judging one’s behavior
【小题2】The nurse insisted there was still a sponge because_____
A. she saw the doctor hide the twelfth sponge
B. she believed she was right
C. she thought the doctor was not responsible
D. she knew the patient well
【小题3】What does the underlined word “yield” mean in the text?
A. admit B. give in
C. stop D. look forward
【小题4】How does the text mainly develop?
A. By providing an example of honesty.
B. By making a comparison between honesty and dishonesty.
C. By explaining the author’s grandparents’ belief in detail.
D. By following the order of importance.
