B More than 10,000 people were made homeless in Ternang when the Sungai Mas overflowed its banks yesterday after six days of continuous heavy rain. The wooden bridge across the river has been washed away. The town is cut off by flood waters. At the fifth mile, Jalan Tengkn, the water is two meters deep. It is closed to all traffic. Flooding first happened at mid-afternoon yesterday along the river banks. People trying to get to higher ground were just in time to escape the destroying of the flood. Most of the flood victims(受害者) had to leave all their things behind. The National Flood Relief(救济) Center was reported to give its help and by early evening the whole town was moved out, helped by the army, police, Red Cross Society and volunteers(志愿者). The flood victims are now housed in different simple relief centers in the nearby town of Ternang. “Everything possible is being done to help the unlucky people,” a government spokesman said, “In fact, money, food and clothing have begun to come in from public organizations and helpful people. A Disaster Relief Fund(救灾基金会) will be started as soon as possible.” According to the latest reports it is still raining heavily at Ternang. The whole town is expected to be wholly covered by the water. So far no deaths have been reported. 24. This passage is probably taken from ______. A. a storybook B. a textbook C. a magazine D. a newspaper 25. It seems that the flood happened just because ______. A. the banks were too low B. the wooden bridge is solid (坚固) C. the river was too narrow D. they had had wet days for some time 26. From the passage we know that ______.

Rescue Team Arrived C “Life is about daring to carry out your ideas,” said Italian mountaineer Reinhold Messner. One of the best-known living mountaineers, now 74, Messner became the first person to climb Mount Qomolangma alone and without the help of bottled oxygen (氧气) in 1980. He also became, in 1986, the first to reach the world’s 14 mountain tops of over 8,000 meters, again without bottled oxygen. Along the way, he has practiced a special style of mountaineering known as alpinism, in which climbers try to reach the top with as little material (材料) and outside help as possible. But it is an art that is increasingly getting lost — today’s climbers depend on Sherpas (local guides for climbers in the Himalayas) and ready-made routes to reach the top, Messner said. “The true alpinist doesn’t want such help. He wants to go into the wild,” he said. His achievements have made him a great hero, but Messner says he has gotten into plenty of dangerous situations along the way，too. “Around half of the top alpinists have died climbing,” he said. “Of course, if I turn back more often than the others, I can increase my chances
