COURTESY PAUL BOZYMOWSKI-Three New York City police officers paid for a woman’s groceries rather
than arresting her.
As temperatures approached 90 degrees in New York City last July 4th, three police officers ducked into aWhole Foods Market to get something cold to drink. What they walked into was a heated human drama.
Once inside, the cops, Lt. Louis Sojo and Officers Esanidy Cuevas and Michael Rivera, were approached by a
store security guard who asked for help with a suspected shoplifter. The woman in question didn’t have the look of
a career criminal. She was obviously scared, and her cheeks were wet with tears.
The cops peeked inside her bag. “All we saw was containers of food.” Cuevas told CBS New York.
"I’m hungry," she explained quietly.
Caught red-handed, the woman no doubt expected to be sentenced to jail for the crime of being hungry while
poor. But the cops had other ideas. “We’ll pay for her food,” Sojo told the surprised security guard.
There’d been no discussion among the three men. It went unsaid. Instead, they picked up the woman’s bag and
accompanied her to a cash register, where each took out $10 to pay the tab. She would not be arrested today.
All the woman could do was weep in gratitude. Covering her face with a kerchief and drying her eyes, she
repeated, “Thank you, thank you.”
She wasn’t the only one touched by this act of mercy. “It was a very beautiful, genuine moment,” says Paul
Bozymowski, who was at the store. He was so taken by what he’d witnessed that he posted a photo on Twitter for
all to see.
But attention was never what the officers sought. They were driven by a far more common emotion. As Sojo
told CNN, “When you look at someone’s face and see that they need you and they’re actually hungry, it’s pretty
difficult as a human being to walk away from something like this.”
1. What can be learnt about the woman from the passage?
A. She had stolen in the shop several times before.
B. She was caught on the spot by three police officers.
C. She was found innocent and would not be arrested.
D. She was forced to commit the crime due to the dilemma of life.
2. Paul Bozymowski posted a photo on Twitter to .
A. appeal for sympathy for the people in need B. express his gratitude to the police officers
C. show more people the cops’ act of kindness D. record the unforgettable moment in his life
3. What drove the three police officers to pay for the woman?
A. Their great devotion to work B. A deep sense of being human
C. The attraction of the public attention D. Their different attitude towards shoplifting

E(江西省高安中学2017-2018学年高二上学期期末考试)China is a big country, and there is no simple answer to the question “When is the best time to visit China? ”

South. This could actually improve the view in the form of mountain fog in mountainous areas like the Li River and
the Yellow Mountains.
Ethnic festivals in GuiZhou are concentrated in April and May, such as the Sisters’ Meal Festival. If you are
interested in Miao and Dong ethnic cultures, this is a good time to visit.

A Visitor Oyster card is the cheapest way to pay for a single adult journey in London. It’s a plastic smartcard.
You can use it on the bus, tube, tram, DLR, London Overground and most National Rail services. It’s much

choose how much money you want to add to the card. This means you can start using the card the moment you
arrive in Central London.

Hot Spots for Retirees to Start Their Encore Career
Encore Career: Vocational School Instructor
Retire in: Los Angeles, CA
Ever since IBM CEO Ginni Rometty coined the term “new collar” to describe well-paid jobs that require
specific skills but not necessarily a degree, vocational schools have made a serious comeback. Apparently
instructors are in short supply in sunny L.A., where there are 13 jobs at vocational schools for every applicant on
the market. This is a great opportunity for skilled retirees since, unlike teaching at a public school that requires a
state certificate, the only requirement here is that you be a seasoned expert in your field.
Encore Career: Business Consultant
Retire in: Miami, FL
Consulting is a great option for a retired business professional looking to make their own hours, be their own
boss, and earn as much or as little as needed to maintain their standard of living. For every consultant in Miami

which is typically considered the consulting capital of the world.
Encore Career: Tourist Wrangler

Dreaming of summer picnics filled with family and fun? We’ve come up with 4 of the top picnic areas across
the US.
Cumberland Islands, Georgia
Just a few hours south of Savannah, this national seashore is a picnic paradise. It’s an unspoiled place in the
Deep South with over 50 miles of hiking trails (小径). Covered in Spanish moss, the trails are lined with trees and
since it’s still a rural area, the stars line up for a spectacular show at night and create the perfect evening starlit
picnic opportunity.
Grant Park, Chicago
If you are looking for delicious food in Chicago, go for a taste of a 20-day, lake-front, foodie festival that
happens in October each year. Grab a spot near the fountain to enjoy your picnic, appreciate the city scenery and
lake views and relax with family and friends. If you are there on July 4th, be sure to plan the day to include the
fireworks display at the Navy Pier.
Cranberry Islands, Maine
Here, you’ll enjoy natural picnics with island views. The islands are a delightful group of islands about 20
minutes offshore from Acadia National Park. You can visit the islands by private boat or ferry (渡船) service. Bring
a picnic basket along for the ride as it’s a romantic picnic area to take your special someone or go for a family
outing to visit the islands.

Many of the most striking beasts on the planet come in only two colors: black and white. These high-contrast
markings represent some of the nature’s most diverse evolutionary choices. For some animals, black -and- white
coloring is a way to warn off natural enemies. For others, to keep insects away. For still others, it creates a clever
cover. Spend some time exploring what science has discovered about these animals’ appearances, and you will see
that basic black and white isn’t so basic after all.
Skunk
Depending on the species, black skunks may wear white spots that act as a cover or white stripes(条纹)that
signal enemies to watch out for their smelly spray.
Giant Panda
Resent insights into panda coloring have come from studying each body part separately. Black ears indicate
fierceness, and distinct eye patches aid in individual recognition. The panda in white body hides it against snow,
white its dark limbs(四肢) keep it from being spotted in forests, a compromise developed from its poor bamboo
diet: Bamboo doesn’t let pandas build up enough fat to hibernate(冬眠), forcing them to spend winters in the snow.
Badger
Even when a badger is in its cave, its facial stripes can be seen, Zoologists say the warning coloration helps
the small animal prevent natural enemies.
Blackbuck(male)
In bright sun, the buck’s white stomach reduces the effect of the shadow cast by his back, allowing him to
appear one color and two dimensional — especially hiding from natural enemies in his own shadown.
1. Which animals can use their color to warn off natural enemies?
A. Skunk and Badger B. Giant panda and Zebra
C. Badger and Blackbuck D. Zebra and Blackbuck
2. White body and dark limbs help the giant panda to ________.
A. show fierceness B. store fat
C. recognize individuals D. take cover
3. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Which animals have black- and-white color?
B. How some animals protect themselves from harm.
C. Why so many animals wear black- and- white coats?
D. What science has discovered about different colors.
