Twenty﹣six years ago, Yossi went deep into the Amazon jungle and got lost for three weeks. He lost a lot of weight as the result of hunger and disease (疾病). However, he luckily got out of the jungle and wrote a book Jungle about his story years later. The question remains ﹣ how did he survive (幸存)?
Yossi had always dreamed of exploring (探险) the heart of the Amazon jungle. He met and became good friends with Marcus, Kari, and Kevin. They set off together.
(1) At the beginning, that seemed like a good idea so they built the boat excitedly and started downriver. However, on their journey, Kari suddenly refused to continue. The men then separated and moved on in pairs.
Yossi and Kevin continued on the boat. Near a waterfall, they lost control of their boat and were thrown into the river.(2) Yossi then spent four days trying to get back upriver to find his friend but failed. During this time, Kevin was saved by some fishermen. He quickly went to the town and asked for help from the local people.
Deep in the forest, Yossi climbed around, lost and alone.(3) As the days passed, not only did Yossi run out of food, but he also realized his foot was starting to rot (腐烂) away.
Yossi wanted to give up many times.One day, as he was cleaning a fresh wound on his foot,Yossi heard the sound of a boat engine. He tried his best to get to the river bank.(4) Yossi wanted to shout out but was too tired to do so. How disappointed he was when he saw the search party turning around and away from him. Yossi tried to run forward but fell into the water. The noise caught Kevin's attention and Yossi was finally saved.
A. Kevin swam to the bank but Yossi was rushed downriver.
B. Their plan was to sail on a boat down the Tuichi River.
C. Kari lost his life in the jungle.
D. It was Kevin.
E. Also there were dangerous animals around.
The Inuit people of North America used to be called Eskimos. (1) Their lives have changed a lot in 30 years.
The Inuit people used to live in igloos (冰屋)in winter, but today, many of them live in houses in small towns. They used to hunt seals (海豹).(2) Many of them still wear seal﹣skin clothes today because they are very warm. Remember, the weather is very cold for many months of the year.
Mariano Tagalik, a 65﹣year﹣old Inuit, told us a little about her past life." Our winter igloos were very warm. We cooked inside, so sometimes it got too hot. (3) In the short summers, we lived in seal﹣skin tents, but I spent as much time as possible playing outside. "
To move over the snow, Inuit people wore special snowshoes on their feet.(4) These machines can travel long distances(距离)in a short time. In the past, it took them days or weeks to travel the same distance.
(5) , and they learnt everything from their parents. Now, like all North
Americans,they go to school for about ten years. Life is not as hard as it used to be,but many of the older Inuits hate modem life and want to go back to the old days.

(1) B Lean forward (倾身向前), touch faces and make a kissing sound. This is French people's favorite way of greeting, But when the virus is going around, too many kisses are not good.

(3) D It's a very Australian thing to put your hand out to shake hands.But if you do this,the virus can jump from one person to another. Now a health official (官员) in Australia says a pat (拍打) on the back would be better. But it also has some problems.For example,it's a bit impolite if you do this to your teacher. What do you think?
(4) C People in Iran often shake hands when they meet. But a recent video shows that an interesting way to greet others is now popular in Iran. In the video, three Iran men wear masks and put their hands in their pockets. They don't shake hands, but try to"shake" feet.
