20、ork police have issued a warning after a man escaped from Shangdi Mental Hospital earlier this morning .The man ,John, is a murderer who killed six people.Andy felt frightened, “A crazy killer is out somewhere.” “Dont worry about it ,” said her husband. “Were nearly there now. Anyway, we have more i

21、mportant things to worry about. This car is losing power for the engine.” As he spoke, the car began to slow down. Finally the engine died completely. “Now well have to walk in the rain.” “But thatll take us an hour at least,” said Andy, “And I have my high-heeled shoes and my nice clothes on, which

22、 will be ruined!” “Well, youll have to wait while I run to the nearest house and call the Harrisons. Someone can come out and pick us up,”said George. “But George! Have you forgotten what the radio said? Theres an insane person out there!” “Youll have to hide in the back of the car. Lock all the doo

23、rs and lie on the floor in the back. When I come back, Ill knock three times on the door. Then you can open it.” Albert opened the door and disappeared into the darkness.Some time later she heard the sound of vehicles, running quickly down the road. The three vehicles were all police cars. One of th

24、em rushed towards the car as Andy opened the door. A policeman said, “Get out of the car and walk. Youre safe now. Just dont look back.” something in the way he spoke filled Andy with cold horror.

28、e the damage done to the car. B. You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window

29、and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead! Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why?because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are call

30、ed stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work . They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress(床墊). Again

31、 , when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntmans success depends on careful timing

32、. For example, when he is “blown up” in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman , for example,

33、 skied over the edge of a cliff(懸崖）a thousand feet high. His parachute failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only.

37、uly 13, “The Voice of China” managed to capture the viewers attention and hearts.“The Voice of China”, Chinas adaptation of a Dutch reality talent show, sees its hopeful contestants going through a blind audition (試唱)，with four celebrity (名人)coaches picking their teams of singers who will then go on
