A
On a stormy day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he
saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.
Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search a football. Once they’d
rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the
boat into open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for
it and the boat was out of control.
Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.
“Everything went quiet in my head,” Tim recalls(回忆). “I’m trying to figure out how to
swim to the boys in a straight line.”
Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head
to judge his progress. “At one point, I considered turning back,” he says. “I wondered if I was
putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys,
“Take down the umbrella!”
“Let’s aim for the pier(码头),” Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward,
waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. “Can you guys swim?” he cried. “A little bit,”
the boys said.
Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys
toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam
toward land as water washed over the boys’ faces.
“Are we almost there?” they asked again and again. “Yes,” Tim told them each time.
After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.
21. Why did the two boys go to the sea?
A. To get back their football. B. To go boat rowing
C. To swim in the open water D. To test the umbrella as a sail.
22. What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The beach B. The wind C. The boat D. The water
23. Why did Tim raise his head regularly?
A. To take in enough fresh air . B. To consider turning back or not.
C. To check his distance from the boys. D. To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.
B
At the beginning of the twentieth century, American laborers(劳动者) often worked long hours for little pay.Many worked under extremely dangerous conditions.About five hundred thousand workers, however, had joined groups called labor unions, hoping to improve their situation.
In 1900, the largest national organization of labor unions was the American Federation of Labor.Its head was Samuel Gompers.Gompers had moved to New York with his parents when he was thirteen years old.He was twentyfour when he began working for the local union of cigar makers.He worked for the labor movement for sixty years.
Samuel Gompers had helped create the AFL in the late 1880s.He led the organization for all but one year until his death in 1924.Gompers defined(明确) the purpose of the labor movement in America.He also established the method used to solve labor disputes(纠纷).Gompers thought unions should work only to increase wages, improve work conditions and stop unfair treatment of workers.He called his method pure and simple unionism.
Samuel Gompers sought(争取) immediate change for workers.He used group actions such as strikes as a way to try to force company owners to negotiate(谈判).
Gompers was criticized for going to social events with industry leaders, and for compromising(妥协) too easily with employers.But Gompers believed such actions helped his main goal.He believed if workers were respected, their employers would want to make working conditions better.
Under the leadership of Samuel Gompers, the labor movement won its first small gains.For example, the federal government recognized the right of workers to organize.That happened when union representatives(代表) were part of the National War Labor Board during World War Ⅰ.Yet conditions for American workers continue to improve as employers realize that treating their workers well is good for business.
24.Labor unions were formed to________.
A.protect laborers' rights and benefits B.fight with the employers
C.shorten the working hours D.make the laborers feel sad
25.From the passage we can learn________.
A.Gompers moved to New York to join in labour movement

26.Which of the following disputes may NOT be solved by the unions according to
