21、   In the short time Steve and Zach had been inside their tent packing their tools, wind-blown flame had skipped from the top of one tree to another. The long dry summer had turned the forest into a tinderbox.

“Let’s go! We can make it back to the river we crossed today!” Steve kept Brady on the lead and their heads down against the fire-wind. But Brady barked a sharp warning. Ahead of them lay a thick curtain of smoke across the track. They would never make it through that. The dog was pulling at his lead trying to draw them away from the smoke, and yet Steve was uneasy. It seemed to him that they were moving away from the river.

Suddenly, Zach cried. “Zach!” Steve shouted. “Are you OK? Where are you?” Then Brady pulled Steve down a sharp slope(坡). At its base, Zach was rubbing his ankle.

As Steve helped his friend to his feet, Brady lifted his head and snuffed(嗅) the smoke-laden wind. Next moment, the dog bounded away and disappeared. The boys shouted for him, but he didn’t come back. Steve couldn’t blame Brady for panicking. He himself wanted to run even though he didn’t have a clue which way.

Steve and Zach hadn’t gone far when there was a familiar bark, and Brady came bounding, stopped directly in front of Steve and hit him with his head, pushing him back toward the slope they’d just climbed. But Steve didn’t get it. Then Brady grabbed the boy’s jeans and started pulling. The message was clear, but Steve hesitated. Of course he remembered Brady saving his uncle’s life when the dog was much younger. Was he still sharp enough to get them through this?

Nearby, a pine went up in a whoosh of smoke. Brady pulled again, urgently. “OK, big guy,” Steve gritted(咬紧牙关). Brady led them back down the slope and into the trees. Not far from them fire was touching underbrush. Several times the big dog stopped. Often he changed directions. Steve was so tired that he just wanted to rest, but Brady wouldn’t have it. The dog bullied both boys to go on. How long they’d walked Steve had no idea. He was almost numb when he heard it—the wonderful sound of rushing water!

【1】What happened to Steve and Zach at first?

A. They got injured. B. They lost their dog.

C. They were trapped. D. They became separated.

【2】Brady ran away to ______.

22、After a long winter, spring is the ideal time for sightseeing and exploring London’s green spaces.

1. Explore London’s parks and gardens

Spring time is one of the perfect times of year to explore London’s parks and gardens, when the city’s plants are blooming. Go and admire the rainbow of azaleas (杜鹃花) at Richmond Park or hire a chair in St James’s Park with a view of Buckingham Palace.

2. Enjoy the entertainment at spring festivals

3. Get active

Warm weather means there’s no excuse for staying indoors, so go for a walking or cycling tour of London.

If you’re really looking for a challenge, take part in the famous London Marathon held annually in April.

4. Take to the waters

Whether cruising (航行) along the Thames River, hiring a rowing boat in Hyde Park or riding a canal boat around Little Venice, there are lots of fun ways to get on the water in London.

23、New Year’s Concert 2021 with Riccardo Muti

The 2021 Vienna Philharmonic New Year’s Concert took place on January 1, 2021, under the baton (指挥) of Riccardo Muti in the Golden Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna. After 1993, 1997, 2000, 2004, and 2018, this year’s concert marked the 6th time that Riccardo Muti, whose close musical partnership with the Vienna Philharmonic has now extended about 50 years, had conducted the prestigious concert event.

The 2021 New Year’s Concert was broadcast in over 90 countries and followed by millions of television viewers around the world. The 2021 New Year’s Concert took place without an audience.

Due to ongoing high rates of infection, the Austrian Federal Government had decided that no concerts could be performed before audiences until January 6, 2021. Unfortunately, it also affected the Preview Performance on December 30, 2020, at 11 AM; the New Year’s Eve Concert on December 31, 2020, at 7:30 PM; and the New Year’s Concert on January 1, 2021, at 11:15 AM. We therefore refunded (退款) all paid tickets and kindly asked the ticket holders to contact us by e-mail.

Riccardo Muti has conducted the most important orchestras in the world, including the Vienna Philharmonic, an orchestra to which he is linked by particularly close and important ties, and with which he has appeared in Vienna and around the world since 1971.

The first New Year’s Concert took place during the darkest chapter of the history of Austria and that of the Vienna Philharmonic. On January 1, 1941, a Philharmonic matinee entitled “Johann Strauss Concert” was performed. Clemens Krauss conducted the concerts. In the years 1946 and 1947, Josef Krips (1902-1974) replaced Krauss, who returned in 1948 and conducted seven more New Year’s Concerts until 1954.

With the unexpected death of Clemens Krauss on May 16, 1954, the orchestra decided, shortly before January 1, 1955, to entrust (委托) Willi Boskovsky with the artistic direction of the New Year’s Concerts.

【1】What do we know about the 2021 New Year’s Concert?

A．It had the most famous conductor.

B．It was held in different countries.

C．It was the sixth one held in the Golden Hall.

D．It had no audience in the Golden Hall.

【2】How did the organizers react to the government’s rules?

A．They added the New Year’s Eve Concert.

B．They paid all the money back to the ticket holders.

C．They put off the New Year’s Concert until January 6, 2021.

D．They asked audiences to preview the performance on December 30.

【3】Who conducted the Vienna Philharmonic’s New Year’s Concert of 1948?

A．Riccardo Muti.

B．Clemens Krauss.

C．Josef Krips.

D．Willi Boskovsky.
