She Walked Through Fire
On Thanksgiving weekend, the Heffelmire family gathered for a meal at their home. After dinner, the family went down to the finished basement to relax except Charlotte’s father, Eric, who was in the garage to fix his truck．
Around 8 p.m., Charlotte decided to check on her dad. She walked through the kitchen. When she opened the side door to the garage, black smoke rose up into the kitchen. She could barely make out her father lying on his back, trapped under the truck. He’d removed the front passenger-side tyre and raised the truck on a jack（千斤顶）. The truck had slipped off the jack, and now the whole weight of the wheel was on his chest and shoulders．
Charlotte ran to the front of the truck and struggled to lift it. Eric was still conscious, and he yelled, “You got it! One more try!” She tried again and was able to tip the truck backward just enough for her to pull her dad by the shirt with both hands from under the truck．
She dragged him across the garage and 20 feet down the driveway. Then she ran back to the garage, which had burst into flames. “I was afraid the car was going to explode,” says Charlotte, so she climbed into the truck, which faced forward, turned the key, and pressed the gas pedal（油门）. The car slowly rolled out, the metal wheel scratching loudly against the concrete．
Safely on the driveway, Charlotte stopped the truck and ran back to the basement. “There’s a fire! Everybody get out!” she yelled as she picked up her three-month-old niece and ran out. Outside, she handed the baby to her mom, and then ran around to the burning garage. She picked up a garden hose（水管）and sprayed the fire while calling 911．
A few minutes later, firefighters and an ambulance arrived. Charlotte was treated for second-degree burns on both her feet and face. Her dad had injuries on his chest and shoulders, as well as minor burns on his face. The garage and the house were damaged but the family survived．
The Heffelmires are staying in an apartment while their house is rebuilt. “Charlotte is a remarkable kid,” says her dad. Charlotte, however, simply says, “ I was saving my family and my house. I wasn’t going to let my dad die.”

Instagram is a fast, beautiful and fun way to share your life with friends and family. Take a picture or video, choose a filter(修图) to transform its look and feel, and then post to Instagram— it’s that easy. You can even share to Facebook, Twitter and more．It’s a new way to see the world. So many photos of food are contained on Instagram— now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks．
I always thought people’s taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK, I’d probably do it too. “The Picture House” is the world’s first pay-by-photo restaurant. You order, click a photo of the food, share on Instagram and eat for free!
The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant(巨人) Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals．So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range．
The pop-up diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don’t have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life” campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special, ”said marketing director Margaret Jobling．
The reaction to the Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year in a cafe in Germany
customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat．
32. Instagram probably is
A. a restaurant free of charge.
B. a campaign of “Food for Life”.
C. a program used to share photos.
D. a new marketing project.
33. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The Picture House was opened in Scotland.
B. The British people’s response to the Picture House is quite cold.
C. The Picture House is the world’s first pay-by-photo restaurant.
D. Lots of British people like taking photos of their meals.
34. “The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food
to
A. attract more customers.
B. create a new social media trend.
C. raise the price of frozen food.
D. reward the regular customers.
35. Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?
A. Food for Life
B. The Pop-up Diner
C. No Need to Pay
D. Pay by Picture
第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Everybody knows that first impressions count. If you want to know how to meet people, just follow these steps.
● Live in the moment.
To meet new people, the first thing you have to do is enjoy the present moment of the new conversation. 36 They can prevent a conversation from going smoothly.
When you approach a new person, don’t ask yourself, “How do I look?” or “How do I sound?” Instead, ask, “What would this person like to talk about?” “What matters to this person?”
● Stay confident.
If you keep up your confidence, people feel that you’re a person who is worth talking to. You should be confident before you walk into a room with new people in it and build your confidence as the conversation goes along. 37
Body language can help you stay confident. 38 When you introduce yourself, speak clearly and loudly enough that you’ll be heard.
● Be positive.
39 You should smile from time to time. Talk about the things you love, the things that make you happy, and your interests to keep people engaged.
Don’t talk about your long-standing hatred for a certain person. Don’t nod and agree with what the person is saying every five seconds. 40
A. Maintaining a positive attitude will make people want to talk
to you.
B. Let go of your expectations and fears.
C. If you find yourself anxious, take a deep breath and wait until
you calm down.
D. Never ask for a person’s number or salary in the middle of the
conversation.
E. The occasional “That’s so true!” or “I know exactly what you mean!” will be far more positive.
F. Just smile, talk about the things that you love, and show everyone that you love who you are.
G. Stand tall, maintain eye contact, and don’t look at the floor.
