在一次迪士尼邮轮之旅中,一名父亲在孩子落水后跳入海中,引发了一场疯狂的海上搜救行动。
【原文·时文阅读】
(文章来源:https://www.readersdigest.com.au/true-stories-lifestyle/)
A father and his daughter were rescued from the ocean after falling overboard from a Disney Cruise Line ship on Sunday afternoon, prompting praise for the ship’s crew and relief among passengers who witnessed the ordeal unfold in real time.
The incident occurred aboard the Disney Dream as it sailed on a roundtrip voyage between Florida and the Bahamas. Passenger Gar Frantz said he was on the fourth-floor deck when he saw the child, who had been sitting on the ship’s railing while the father took a picture, fall into the water.
“Then the child fell overboard,” Frantz recalled. “We watched it, you could see two little things … it was crazy, it was horrific.”
The father reportedly jumped in immediately after the child in an effort to save her.
Fellow passenger Gail Merrick was playing bingo when she noticed a sudden commotion outside. “We came to find out that it was a child and then the father had gone in after the child, so we were watching with bated breath basically waiting for what would happen,” she told NBC News.
Merrick said she saw a yellow rescue boat with crew members being deployed, and the Disney Dream itself made a sharp turn to return to the spot. According to Disney, the two guests were recovered within minutes.
“We commend our Crew Members for their exceptional skills and prompt actions, which ensured the safe return of both guests to the ship,” Disney said in a statement. “We are committed to the safety and wellbeing of our guests, and this incident highlights the effectiveness of our safety protocols.”
Disney did not provide any identifying details about the guests or clarify how far into the journey the ship was when the fall occurred.
Passenger James Tackett said he felt the ship lurch into a sharp turn before hearing what had happened. “When they did officially get the people, everyone cheered,” he said. “It was a good moment.”
His mother, Brenda Tackett, who was also onboard, praised the crew’s swift and professional response.
“You could tell they’ve practiced this – hopefully have never used it before – but they were great,” she said. “The whole thing was maybe 10, 15 minutes and they safely got back on board.”
Disney After the rescue, the Disney Dream resumed its journey. “Thankfully it turned out positive,” Merrick said, “and we were able to enjoy the rest of the cruise.”

Passage1阅读理解
(2025·甘肃省靖远县第一中学高三下学期3月月考)
On July 22, a fire suddenly broke out in Jasper National Park, spreading quickly and causing significant damage across the Canadian forest. Among those facing the risky situation was 18-year-old Colleen Knull,a volunteer firefighter working a summer job as part of the kitchen staff in Jasper Lodge.
Knull has less than one year of experience as a firefighter, and was off duty on that July 22 night, but she did not hesitate to take the lead after receiving the order to evacuate (撤离). The volunteer firefighter quickly knocked on the cabin doors at the lodge, informing the guests who were asleep of the danger. Then she searched for other campers in the area. She led a total of 16 people through a difficult four-hour hike in the dark, guiding them all to safety.
Rebecca Tocher, one of the evacuees, recalled how Knull took charge and made sure that everyone was working together during the tense and frightening hike. Tocher said, “There was intense smoke, my eyes were burning, and there was ash falling constantly. Despite the challenges, she remained calm and led us the whole way.”
Fortunately, Knull was familiar with the trail. “I had previously ridden up on a horse up to that lodge on that same trail. And throughout the way, my employer and I had cut logs uphill,” she recalls. “So, I knew there would be 67 cut logs on the way down.” In addition to counting the logs, Knull also relied on horse tracks and horse waste to guide the group safely through the dark to where her truck was parked. Knull managed to pack all 16 people inside and drove them to safety without any serious injuries.
Knull, who is training to become a full-time firefighter, demonstrates that bravery and resourcefulness are essential in any dangerous situation. But what truly sets her apart is her sympathy for others. She explains, “I do it because, at the end of the day, I know I’d want to go home — but I’d also want someone there to help.”
1.What did Knull initially do after receiving the evacuation order?
A.She searched campsites nearby. B.She messaged other firefighters.
C.She evacuated her kitchen workers. D.She awakened the guests at the lodge.
2.What impressed Tocher most about Knull?
A.Her good physical quality. B.Her remarkable leadership.
C.Her patience with the hikers. D.Her resistance to heavy smoke.
3.How did Knull walk the 16 people downhill?
A.By applying her tracking skills. B.By clearing the path of cut logs.
C.By getting a horse leading the way. D.By contacting rescue crew for help.
4.Why does the author cite Knull’s words in the last paragraph?
A.To praise her ambition. B.To express her frankness.
C.To show her daily routine. D.To highlight her kindness.
【长难句分析】
【文章原句】Knull has less than one year of experience as a firefighter, and was off duty on that July 22 night, but she did not hesitate to take the lead after receiving the order to evacuate.
【句式分析】这是一个由并列连词“but”连接的并列复合句,前后两部分在语义上形成对比转折关系Bbut之前是一个and连接的并列句。
【翻译】Knull作为一名消防员的经验还不到一年,7月22日晚上她不在执勤,但在接到疏散命令后,她毫不犹豫地带头。

I got to Dr Tan’s clinic at 7:45 am, 15 minutes before office hours began on Saturday. Dr Tan, who has been a dentist for five years, sat in his consulting room with a mask on his face and waited for his patients. I didn’t really understand his diagnoses or treatments, but I could see that Dr Tan was a responsible doctor. He explained conditions and therapies (治疗方案) to patients at length to remove their doubts. He paused operations to let patients rest if the treatment was taking too much time. 3 Dr Tan worked for almost the whole morning without a break. He only made a phone call to his wife to remind her to have an antenatal (产前) examination. Yes, he will be a father in five months, but he still cannot keep his wife company at the weekend. 4 They try to ease others’ pain anytime and anywhere, despite the cost to their own time and life.

Rescue in the Rapids
ON A BREEZY Saturday in April 2014, former police officer Kevin O’Connor and his son, Ryan, were standing in a park near the Fox River in Geneva, Illinois. As Kevin gazed at the river, he caught sight of several people on the bank 1 (motion) toward the water. When he looked in that direction, he noticed a bright red boat turning in a spinning circle in the stormy water at the base of the Geneva Dam,300 feet away.
Kevin assumed the person on the boat 2 (jump) out of it. “Then I heard a warning signal with a loud sound,” says Kevin, now 10. “That’s 3 I realized somebody was in trouble.”
He couldn’t see anyone in the river, 4 he sped toward the bank and dashed into the freezing water. About 150 feet from shore, he spied an object moving downriver. “I thought it was a life jacket,” he says. “When I caught up to it, I realized it 5 (attach) to a person.”
Now in water up to his neck, Kevin grabbed the man, 6 was floating on his back unconscious, under both armpits and held his head above the surface. Kevin struck the man’s chest again and again. After five hits, the man coughed up water and began speaking incoherently. Just back to life, the man was still weak. Battling the current, Kevin sidestepped his way 7 the shoreline, repeatedly digging his shoes into the river’s rocky bottom. When he reached the bank, someone jumped into the river and helped Kevin lift the 200-pound drowning man over a six-foot brick retaining wall to waiting doctors, who took him away in an ambulance. The man recovered, but a friend who was boating with him died after being trapped underwater near the dam.
Kevin pulled 8 up to sit on the shore beside Ryan, who had followed his father’s path down the river. “When I caught my breath, I realized I saved someone’s life, which is what I 9 do.” Kevin says.
In December 2015, Kevin received an award from the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. “Lots of honour-receivers lost their lives saving someone,” he says. “ 10 (put) in the same category is very humbling.”

Passage1阅读理解
(2025·甘肃省靖远县第一中学高三下学期3月月考)
On July 22, a fire suddenly broke out in Jasper National Park, spreading quickly and causing significant damage across the Canadian forest. Among those facing the risky situation was 18-year-old Colleen Knull,a volunteer firefighter working a summer job as part of the kitchen staff in Jasper Lodge.
Knull has less than one year of experience as a firefighter, and was off duty on that July 22 night, but she did not hesitate to take the lead after receiving the order to evacuate (撤离). The volunteer firefighter quickly knocked on the cabin doors at the lodge, informing the guests who were asleep of the danger. Then she searched for other campers in the area. She led a total of 16 people through a difficult four-hour hike in the dark, guiding them all to safety.
Rebecca Tocher, one of the evacuees, recalled how Knull took charge and made sure that everyone was working together during the tense and frightening hike. Tocher said, “There was intense smoke, my eyes were burning, and there was ash falling constantly. Despite the challenges, she remained calm and led us the whole way.”
Fortunately, Knull was familiar with the trail. “I had previously ridden up on a horse up to that lodge on that same trail. And throughout the way, my employer and I had cut logs uphill,” she recalls. “So, I knew there would be 67 cut logs on the way down.” In addition to counting the logs, Knull also relied on horse tracks and horse waste to guide the group safely through the dark to where her truck was parked. Knull managed to pack all 16 people inside and drove them to safety without any serious injuries.
Knull, who is training to become a full-time firefighter, demonstrates that bravery and resourcefulness are essential in any dangerous situation. But what truly sets her apart is her sympathy for others. She explains, “I do it because, at the end of the day, I know I’d want to go home — but I’d also want someone there to help.”
1.What did Knull initially do after receiving the evacuation order?
A.She searched campsites nearby. B.She messaged other firefighters.
C.She evacuated her kitchen workers. D.She awakened the guests at the lodge.
2.What impressed Tocher most about Knull?
A.Her good physical quality. B.Her remarkable leadership.
C.Her patience with the hikers. D.Her resistance to heavy smoke.
3.How did Knull walk the 16 people downhill?
A.By applying her tracking skills. B.By clearing the path of cut logs.
C.By getting a horse leading the way. D.By contacting rescue crew for help.
4.Why does the author cite Knull’s words in the last paragraph?
A.To praise her ambition. B.To express her frankness.
C.To show her daily routine. D.To highlight her kindness.

I got to Dr Tan’s clinic at 7:45 am, 15 minutes before office hours began on Saturday. Dr Tan, who has been a dentist for five years, sat in his consulting room with a mask on his face and waited for his patients. I didn’t really understand his diagnoses or treatments, but I could see that Dr Tan was a responsible doctor. He explained conditions and therapies (治疗方案) to patients at length to remove their doubts. He paused operations to let patients rest if the treatment was taking too much time. 3 Dr Tan worked for almost the whole morning without a break. He only made a phone call to his wife to remind her to have an antenatal (产前) examination. Yes, he will be a father in five months, but he still cannot keep his wife company at the weekend. 4 They try to ease others’ pain anytime and anywhere, despite the cost to their own time and life.

Rescue in the Rapids
ON A BREEZY Saturday in April 2014, former police officer Kevin O’Connor and his son, Ryan, were standing in a park near the Fox River in Geneva, Illinois. As Kevin gazed at the river, he caught sight of several people on the bank 1 (motion) toward the water. When he looked in that direction, he noticed a bright red boat turning in a spinning circle in the stormy water at the base of the Geneva Dam,300 feet away.
Kevin assumed the person on the boat 2 (jump) out of it. “Then I heard a warning signal with a loud sound,” says Kevin, now 10. “That’s 3 I realized somebody was in trouble.”
He couldn’t see anyone in the river, 4 he sped toward the bank and dashed into the freezing water. About 150 feet from shore, he spied an object moving downriver. “I thought it was a life jacket,” he says. “When I caught up to it, I realized it 5 (attach) to a person.”
Now in water up to his neck, Kevin grabbed the man, 6 was floating on his back unconscious, under both armpits and held his head above the surface. Kevin struck the man’s chest again and again. After five hits, the man coughed up water and began speaking incoherently. Just back to life, the man was still weak. Battling the current, Kevin sidestepped his way 7 the shoreline, repeatedly digging his shoes into the river’s rocky bottom. When he reached the bank, someone jumped into the river and helped Kevin lift the 200-pound drowning man over a six-foot brick retaining wall to waiting doctors, who took him away in an ambulance. The man recovered, but a friend who was boating with him died after being trapped underwater near the dam.
Kevin pulled 8 up to sit on the shore beside Ryan, who had followed his father’s path down the river. “When I caught my breath, I realized I saved someone’s life, which is what I 9 do.” Kevin says.
In December 2015, Kevin received an award from the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. “Lots of honour-receivers lost their lives saving someone,” he says. “ 10 (put) in the same category is very humbling.”

【解析】本文是记叙文,文章讲述了凯文在湍急的河水里救起了一名落水者的故事。
1.考查非谓语动词。句意:当凯文盯着河水看的时候,他看到河岸上有几个在向河水示意的人。motion“向……打手势”,此处与several people是逻辑主谓关系,应使用现在分词做后置定语表主动。故填motioning。
2.考查时态。句意:凯文以为船上的人是已经从船里跳出来了。此处描述的动作发生在主句谓语动词assumed之前,应使用过去完成时。故填had jumped。

5.考查语态。句意:当我追上它的时候,我意识到它是附在一个人身上的。空格前的it指“救生衣”,此处指“救生衣被系在一个人身上”应使用被动语态,根据语境可知,此处描述的是过去的动作,应使用一般过去时的被动式。故填was attached。
6.考查定语从句。句意:现在水已经淹到他的脖子了,凯文抓住那个男人,他仰面躺着,不省人事,两腋下都有水,他的头露出水面。此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词是the man,关系词在从句中做主语,应使用关系代词who引导。故填who。
7.考查介词。句意:在与激流搏斗的过程中,凯文避开了通往海岸线的路,不断地把鞋子穿进河底的岩石中。根据语境可知,此处应指“通往海岸线的路”,应使用介词toward(s)/to。故填toward(s)/to。
