Georges mother was very poor. Instead of having bright burning fires in winter， she had    1    to burn. George had to pick up dry    2    from under the trees.

One    3   day in July， she sent George to the woods. He was to stay there all day to get as much wood as he could. He worked very hard so that by the time the sun was high， he was hot， and wished for a    4    place where he might rest for a while and eat his dinner.

While he hunted around the bank of the river， he saw among the moss （苔蘚） some fine wild strawberries， which were bright    5   . They looked delicious.

“How good these will be with my bread and butter！” thought George. Lining （垫在……里） his little cap with    6   ， he set to work eagerly （急切地） to gather all he could find. He felt happy and thought how much his mother would like to see him there， and to be there herself instead of in her dark    7   .

George thought of all this and just as he was lifting the first strawberry to his mouth， he said to himself， “How much Mom would like these！” He stopped and    8    the strawberry again.

“Shall I save them for her？” said George， thinking how much they would please her， yet still looking at them with a longing eye. “I will eat half and take the other half to her，” said he at last and he    9    them into two piles （堆）. But each pile looked so small that he put them together again.

“I will keep them all for Mom，” said he and he    10    them up nicely till he should go home.

When the sun was beginning to set， George set out for home. How happy he felt then， that he had all his strawberries for his    11    mother. The nearer he came to his home， the    12    he wished to taste them.

Just as he had thrown down his wood， he heard his mothers weak voice from her bedroom. “I am    13   ， and need some tea.”

George ran in to her and joyfully    14    the strawberries. “You    15    them for me， did you？” said Mom， laying her hand gently on his head， while tears stood in her eyes.

Could the eating of the strawberries have given George half the happiness he felt at the mo-ment？

Gene and Marie Marsden took pride in being good citizens （公民） when in the wild. While driving miles to the Green River Lakes area， they taught their children the rules theyd learned in the bear safety handbook （手册） put out by the Bridger■Teton Forest Service. The NO. 1 rule was “Dont feed the bears！” They warned the kids not to go anywhere near a bear.

Mr. and Mrs. Marsden did their best to keep a tidy camp. While the handbook had said to hang all food at least ten feet off the ground， they did that and locked their food in their car at night. Being sure nothing was left out， they went to bed.

Gene says he now regrets not having taken their dog Spike into the tent at night， but they liked having him on guard. On the night of the encounter （相遇）， Spike could not stop barking， and Marie knew he must be sounding the alarm on something more dangerous. When she looked out of the tent， she saw a young bear.

They all got into the car and drove quickly down the road. They drove to a pay phone twenty miles away and called the Fish and Game Department. Then the Marsdens were told that the bear was a young male that theyd been keeping an eye on.

After spending the night in the public camp ground， they drove back to their site （地点）. After searching for clues， Marie came to a stop below a tallest tree. She hit her head and shouted， “Oh no！”

“What is it？” Gene asked.

Marie pointed at the ground where Spikes dog food bowl lay upside down.

A week after their return home， the Marsdens read the report in their local paper. According to the article， the Fish and Game Department had shot the young bear because， having been re-warded for invading （侵入） a human camp site， it would likely do so again.

The Marsdens knew they had been lucky in the encounter， yet much to their shame and sadness， they also knew that the bear had not.

C

Two graduates from Cambridge University in the United Kingdom found themselves about to graduate， yet with loans to pay off. The pair decided to begin a strange， year■long project to deal with the loan.

The men， Ross Harper and Edward Moyse， set up the website BuyMyFace.com last October as a way to get rid of the ￡50，000 they shared as student loans. The idea behind the project was to earn money by selling their faces as advertising space every day for a year. Each day， they advertise a different business by painting the brands name or logo onto their faces and upload （上传） the pictures to the homepage of BuyMyFace.com， adding a link to the advertisers website and including a short piece of text about it. After they paint their faces and publish them on the website， Harper and Moyse go out to highly populated areas such as music festivals and parks to show their faces as much as possible. They hope more people will pay attention to the advertisements on their faces.

At this time， Harper and Moyse have advertised their faces for over four months without skipping a day and theyre more than halfway to their goal. Though they first started charging about ￡1.60 per company， the prices have risen as they became more and more popular. For advertising space during the rest of April， they range between ￡250 and ￡750.

Terri L. Rittenburg， a professor of marketing at the University of Wyoming， said that she had heard of people tattooing （紋身） logos on themselves before， but this idea is much better. According to her， at first the idea would be new and unusual and attract attention. People are interested in this special style of advertisement and would like to try what they advertise. But she is unsure how long it would last.

At least for now， companies that have bought Harper and Moyses faces have written positive comments （评论） on the pairs website. “We had a three percent increase in website traffic on the very day and for two days more afterwards，” said one of the companies.

（    ）11. At BuyMyFace.com， you can _______.

A. enjoy a good chat with your friends B. buy everything you want to have

C. share experiences in doing business D. get information on certain goods

（    ）12. Harper and Moyse go to highly populated areas to _______.

A. offer their help    B. make more friends

C. show their faces    D. raise more money

（    ）13. The underlined word “loans” in the passage probably means _______.

A. the money borrowed from banks

B. the money borrowed from some companies

C. the money lent to school

D. the money borrowed from other students

（    ）14. We can infer from the passage that the two young men _______.

A. get on well with their project  B. work hard except on holidays

C. plan to open their own company  D. may close their website in future

（    ）15. The mens idea of advertising works well because _______.

A. an expert has highly praised them

B. people find it unique and interesting

C. the products they advertise are very good

D. they receive great help from the companies
