12、hen I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in the car park I was so glad they were there. “ The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious(怀疑 )of the guest who checked in at 3 pm the day before New Years Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled
13、down over his face. She said: “He didnt seem to want to talk too much and make any eye contact(接触 ). “ Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her boss Margaret, 64, and husband Stan McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 pm.

Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind
20、bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops. Luz, who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road, Cambridge, admitted stealing clothes worth 9. 95 from John Lewis in Oxford Street, London, on March 9. Phillip Lemoyne, prosecuting, said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took
21、 them to the ladies toilet in the store. When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected, having taken off the anti-theft security alarms. She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr. Lemoyne said. He added that she was upset on her arrest and apo
22、logized for her actions. Luz, 28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending, said she had never been in trouble with the police before that. “She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesnt really have any explanation why she did this,“ Miss
23、 Duff said. “She didnt intend to steal when she went into the store. She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this. “
24、Judge David Azan fined Luz 50, and warned: “Youve got a criminal record. If you carry on like this, you will end up in prison, which will ruin your bright future you may have. “ Luz achieved a degree in design at a university in her native Spain, went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for

30、night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty. “I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and sirens going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver someho
31、w panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder. “ But Hyde couldnt go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he di
32、d try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene. Hyde
33、followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination. At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasnt needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panic about. “Just about that time,“ H
34、yde says, “I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. Hed blown his engine. Now he had to stop. “ “After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didnt have a drivers license. “ That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty a thou
35、sand dollars for the new engine not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving. 26 The meaning of “panicked“ in Paragraph 2 is related to_.

39、 when I met the Whites. They were completely different from my own family, yet I felt at home with them immediately. Jane White and I became friends at school, and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin. In my family, it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened. “Who di
40、d this?“ my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen. “This is all your fault, Katharine,“ my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke. From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told on each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table. But the Whites di
41、dnt worry about who had done what. They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives. The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died. In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York. The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were c
42、ollege students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently turned sixteen. Proud of having a new drivers license, Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip. She showed off her license to everyone she met. The big sisters shared the driving of Sarahs new car during the first part of the trip
43、, but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take over. Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat. After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel. She came to a crossroads with a stop sign. Whether she was nervous or just didnt see the sign no one would ever know, but Amy cont
44、inued into the crossroads without stopping. The driver of a large truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car. Jane was killed immediately. I was slightly injured. The most difficult thing that Ive ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died. Painful a
45、s it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child. When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head; Amys leg was broken. They hugged us all and cried tears of sadness and of jo
46、y at seeing their daughters. They wiped away the girls tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches. To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simply said, “Were so glad that youre alive. “ I was astonished. No blame. No accusations. Later, I asked
47、 the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign. Mrs. White said, “Janes gone, and we miss her terribly. Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back. But Amy has her whole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame
48、her for her sisters death?“ They were right. Amy graduated from the University of California and got married several years ago. She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students. Shes also a mother of two little girls of her own, the elder one named Jane. 31 How did the authors parents differ fro
49、m the Whites? ( A) The authors parents were less caring. ( B) The authors parents were less loving. ( C) The authors parents were less friendly.
