Reuters（路透社）---A bus driver and his passengers were being hailed（拥戴）as heroes last night after rescuing a woman from her burning car following a crash on the Bluff highway. The 60-year-old woman was taken by ambulance to Southland Hospital after firefighters battled for 30 minutes to cut her from her car.

Acting Senior Sergeant Brock Davis, of Invercargill, said emergency services were called to the scene of the crash at the crossroads of Motorimu Rd and State Gighway 1 shortly before 50 pm yesterday.

Mr. Davis said a Mitsubishi Galant driven by a 30-year-old man traveling north on the highway and the woman’s south-bound Suzuki Alto collided. “The man suffered slight injuries in the crash,” he said.

Invercargill Passenger Transport Ltd driver Bill McDermott and a busload of New Zealand Aluminum Smelters Ltd workers were first on the scene and alerted emergency services. The scene at the spot was chaotic（混乱的）， Mr. McDermott said.

 “There was a car on its side and a guy wandering around who was quite hysterical（歇斯底里），” he said. “We stopped， got out and found a lady trapped in her car …… then we noticed flames in the engine bay and the smell of petrol.” Mr. McDermott took a fire extinguisher（灭火器） from the bus， doused （泼洒） the flames， and several other workers controlled traffic.

However， he said his actions were “no big deal”.

“It’s something you do---you don’t think about it; it’s just something you get out and do,” he said. “I just hope if I was in the same situation people would do the same for me. I was just worried about that damn thing bursting into flames.” Mr. McDermott said the woman in the car remained calm. “She never panicked a little bit,” he said. He was reluctant to take any credit for helping the woman.

“The praise goes to all the guys that jumped off that bus.” Invercargill senior station officer Alan Goldsworthy， who was an officer in charge at the scene， said there was a possibility the car could have burst into flames if Mr. McDermott and the smelters workers had not helped. “They should acquire a good pat on the back，” he said.

On average, American kids aged 3 to 12 spent 29 hours a week in school, eight hours more than they did in 1981. They also did more household work and took part in more of such organized activities as soccer and ballet. Involvement in sports, in particular, rose almost 50% from 1981 to 2004; boys now spend an average of four hours a week playing sports; girls spend half that time. All in all, however, children's leisure time dropped from 40% of the day in 1981 to 25%.

"Children are affected by the same time crunch (危机) that affects their parents," says Sandra Hooferth, who headed the recent study of children's timetable. A chief reason, she says, is that more mothers are working outside the home. Nevertheless, children in both double-income and "male breadwinner" households spent comparable amounts of time with their parents, 19 hours and 22 hours respectively. In contrast, children spent only 9 hours with their single mothers.

All work and no play could make for some very disordered kids. "Play is the most powerful way a child explores the world and learns about himself," says T. Berry Brazeiton, professor at Harvard Medical School. Unstructured play encourages independent thinking and allows the young to deal with their relationships with their peers(同辈), but kids aged 3 to 12 spent only 12 hours a week engaged in it.

The children sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing "free time" watching television. But that, believe it or not, was one of the findings parents regard as good news. If they're spending less time in front of the TV set, however, kids aren't replacing it with reading. Despite efforts to get kids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week reading. Let's face it, who's got time?

1．The author is concerned about the fact that American kids _______.

A．are involved less and less in household work

B．are spending more and more time watching TV

C．are engaged in more and more organized activities

D．are increasingly cared for by their working mothers

2．By mentioning "the same time crunch" Sandra Hofferth means _______.

A．children have little time to play with their parents

B．both parents and children suffer from lack of leisure time

C．both parents and children have trouble managing their time

D．children are not taken good care of by their working parents

3．According to the author a child develops better if _______.

A．he has plenty of time reading and studying

B．he is free to interact with his working parents

C．he is left to play with his peers in his own way

D．he has more time taking part in school activities

4．We can infer from the passage that _______.

A．most parents believe reading to be of benefit to children

B．efforts to get kids interested in reading have been fruitful

C．most children will turn to reading with TV sets switched off

D．organized activities improve children's intelligence

No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people. As we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.

Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.

Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance unavoidably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts.

1．The first paragraph points out that _________.

       A．there are many disabled people in the world

       B．the number of disabled people in India is the greatest

       C．India has a little more disabled people than Canada

       D．it is easy to get an exact figure of the world's disabled people

2．The last word of the passage “counts” most probably means _________.

       A．is numbered                                        B．is considered

       C．is included                                          D．is most important

3．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

       A．even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older

       B．there are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK

       C．the whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people

       D．there still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorance

4．It can be concluded from the passage that ______.

       A．we should try our best to prevent disablement

       B．both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down

C．we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled

       D．the able-bodies people will never fully understand the disabled
