A

In my dual profession as an educator and health care provider, I have worked with numerous children infected with the virus that causes AIDS. The relationships that I have had with these special kids have been gifts in my life. I have especially learned that great courage can be found in the smallest of packages. Let me tell you about Tyler.

Tyler was born infected with HIV; his mother was also infected. From the very beginning of his life, he was dependent on medication to enable him to survive. When he was five, he had a tube surgically inserted in a vein in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back. Medications were fastened to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream. At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.

Tyler wasn't willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his medicine­laden backpack and dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon. All of us who knew Tyler marveled at(大为惊讶) his pure joy in being alive and the energy it gave him. Tyler's mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so fast that she needed to dress him in red. That way, when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard, she could quickly spot him.

This deadly disease eventually wore down even the likes of a little of a dynamo like Tyler. He grew quite ill and, unfortunately, so did his HIV­infected mother. When it became apparent that he wasn't going to survive, Tyler's mom talked to him about death. She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying too, and that she would be with him soon in heaven.

A few days before his death, Tyler beckoned(示意) me over to his hospital bed and whispered, “I might die soon. I'm not scared. When I die, please dress me in red. Mom promised she's coming to heaven, too. I'll be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me.”

A.Because he liked dressing in red.

B.Having a positive attitude will keep you from the deadly disease.

C.Even a child can teach us a lot and be respected.

BERLIN (AP)—A tiger escaped its enclosure at Cologne Zoo in western Germany on Saturday and killed a female keeper before being shot dead by the zoo's director, police said.

The tiger slipped through a passage between the enclosure and a neighboring storage building, where it fatally attacked the 43­year­old keeper, said police spokesman Stefan Kirchner.

“It appears the gate wasn't properly shut,” Kirchner told the Associated Press.

The zoo was evacuated and a SWAT (特警) team was called in, police said. But before it arrived the zoo's director managed to kill the tiger by climbing onto the storage building and shooting it through a skylight using a rifle.

Kirchner said it was unlikely that members of the public had witnessed the incident. “This is the darkest day of my life,” the zoo's director, Theo Pagel, was quoted as saying by Cologne newspaper Express.

The paper said on its website that the Siberian tiger was a 4­year­old male called Tltai that came to Cologne Zoo from an animal park in England. In November it fathered three cubs with a 7­year­old Siberian tiger called Hanya, according to the zoo's website.

Police said the zoo reopened after Saturday's incident, which occurred around noon. However, a planned late­night opening of the zoo has been canceled.

Cologne Zoo is one of the oldest in Germany. It was founded in 1860 and houses some 10,000 animals comprising more than 700 different species.

49.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?

A.Tiger Escapes, Kills Keeper in German Zoo

B.Tiger Escapes in German Zoo, Shot Dead

C.German Zoo Keeper Shot Escaped Tiger

D.People Killed Escaped Tiger in Oldest Zoo in Germany

50.According to the police, what was the direct reason for the incident?

A.The zoo keeper was a new hand.

B.The gate was not closed appropriately.

C.The zoo had neglected the secret passage.

D.It was very dark when the incident happened.

51.What did the zoo do after the incident?

A.They honored the killed person in a way.

B.They paid SWAT for their timely help.

C.They returned the tiger's three cubs to England.

D.They called off the late­night opening.

52.What can we learn about the Cologne Zoo?

A.It keeps a large variety of species.

B.It is one of the largest zoos in Germany.

C.It has a history of more than 700 years.

D.No such incident has happened before.
