DEEP MAGIC FROM THE DAWN OF TIME

“Fall back, all of you,” said Aslan, “and I will talk to the Witch alone.”

They all     1    (obey). It was a terrible time this-waiting and wondering while the Lion and the Witch talked earnestly together in low voices. Lucy said, “Oh, Edmund!” and began to cry. Peter stood with his back to the others looking out at the distant sea. The Beavers stood holding each other’s paws     2    their heads bowed. The centaurs stamped     3    (unease) with their hoofs. But everyone became perfectly still in the end,     4    you could notice even small sounds like a bumble-bee flying past, or the birds in the forest down below them, or the wind rustling the leaves. And still the talk between Aslan and the White Witch went on.

At last they heard Aslan’s voice, “You can all come back,” he said. “I     5    (settle) the matter. She has renounced the claim on your brother’s blood.” And all over the hill there was a noise as if everyone had been holding their     6    (breathe) and had now begun breathing again, and then a murmur of talk.

The Witch was just turning away with     7    look of fierce joy on her face when she stopped and said,

“But     8    do I know this promise will be kept?”

“Haa-a-arrh!” roared Aslan, half     9    (rise) from his throne; and his great mouth opened wider and the roar grew     10    (loud), and the Witch, after staring for a moment with her lips wide apart, picked up her skirt and fairly ran for her life.

My uncle was a forest officer of Pakhirrlay Island and this time he brought me there.

His house was in the forest. When we arrived, Sambhu saw us and rushed to open the garden gate. He was an elderly man who did my uncle’s cooking and other household work.

“How are you?” I called out.

“I’m all right.” he said, “but Payal isn’t.”

My uncle, who walked ahead of us, stopped.

“Why Sambhu, what is wrong with our friend?”

“From the day you left, she hasn’t been eating properly.”

My uncle looked worried.

“Who is Payal?” I asked Sambhu. “Why! Don’t you know? Here she is.”

I turned round. My heart skipped a beat. There was Payal, a well-trained dog, giving my uncle a warm welcome by licking (舔) his face.

Then she caught sight of me and came forward. I stood still while she sniffed my all over. Later I was told that Payal’s mother was killed when she was only ten days old. I felt sorry for her.

Soon my uncle left for work. I wondered how to pass my time. There was a small pond behind the house and I liked to sit beside it. I got up. Immediately Payal moved her tail to show she had seen me move. I could bear it no longer, this feeling of being constantly watched by two silent eyes. I walked off angrily and sat beside the pond.

WOOSH!!! I heard a splashing sound. I looked up. Payal had dived into the water and was swimming in the pond. Soon she came out of the pond and sat breathing behind me. Then Payal growled（咆哮）.

After a while, Payal growled again. This time there was a note of urgency in her growl. I could not help turning back and looking at her. She was staring at something. I looked in the same direction and broke into a cold sweat! There was a snake less than six feet away!

Ellen Kalish runs a center for rescued wild animals in New York. One day, a woman called and asked if she could help an owl (猫头鹰). The caller told her the tiny owl was in the Christmas tree in a shopping center in New York! Kalish was surprised. She has been helping wild animals for 20 years, but she has never heard a story like that.

The traditional Christmas tree was a 75-foot-tall Norway spruce (云杉) from Oneonta, New York. When workers were unwrapping (移去……上的包裹物) the tree, one of them spotted the creature. He was buried in the base of the tree, Kalish said. At first the worker thought the owl might be injured. He would not let go of the tree’s base (底座).

One of the workers called his wife and told her he was taking the owl home. He asked if she could find a place that could help wildlife. The woman then called Kalish.

Kalish then set out to fetch the owl. On the way, she looked at the pictures the woman sent her on the phone. The owl is the smallest of his kind living in the Northeast. How did he end up being stuck in the tree in the first place? “He could have gone to the tree to rest or sleep and got trapped later,” she said. “Maybe once the tree was loaded onto a truck, the branches made it hard for him to escape. Or he might have been too scared to move.” Her driver guessed the owl might have flown in from Central Park in New York, but Kalish didn’t agree. “That would be the last place he would want to go,” Kalish said. “The area around the tree is busy and noisy. Why would he pick that tree if he had a choice not to? He’s smart, and he wouldn’t do that.”

Para. 1: An hour later, Kalish met the woman who first called her at a gas station.
Para. 2: The owl didn’t spend much time at the center.

The lumps after the allergy tests showed their terrible messages that I am allergic to cats, dogs and fur. I cried because I knew what this meant. Our pets would have to go.

Our family of five lived on the Naval Air Station in Key West, Florida. My mother found neighbors who were willing to take care of our sweet dog, Tramp. My sister gave her guinea pig to one of her friends at school. But I begged my parents to let us keep my beloved cat, Grungy.

We had adopted Grungy six years earlier in Turkey, from the Cat Lady, a kind figure who rescued wild cats. Grungy was once lost and found, in Rome, when he somehow missed our return flight back to the States, and again when he finally arrived at the base in Rhode Island, and escaped from his cage. For days, he walked around the airfield and followed an airmen until my dad learned from the airman and brought him home.

After that adventure, Grungy faced a new challenge: Because of my allergies, he would have to be given away. My mother wrote an announcement on the local newspaper. “Wanted: Loving family for a unique cat. Serious inquiries only. ” She added our phone number and placed the ad. But I prayed that no one would call, but several people did. And our parents decided to meet a young couple who lived two islands away on Boca Chica Key. The young man had no children, but the young man’s wife worked at home, so Grungy wouldn’t be lonely when he adjusted to his new life.

I stood silent the day that they arrived to see my cat. I didn’t want to like the soft-spoken man or his pretty, dark-haired wife. To our surprise, Grungy allowed them both to pick him up and hold him. Both of them stroked his soft head and promised to take good care of him. We were all sad to see Grungy go especially me. When I couldn’t control my tears, I ran to my room.

Wylie lived in Scotland, far up on the hills, and helped her master take care of his sheep.

Wylie watched over the sheep and the little lambs like a soldier, and never let anything hurt them. She drove them out to pasture when it was time, and brought them safely home when it was time for that. She loved her work, and was a wonderfully fine sheepdog.

At last her master grew too old to stay alone on the hills. Before he left, he gave Wylie to two kind young men who lived in the nearest town; he knew they would be good to her. They grew very fond of her, and so did their old grandmother and the little children; she was so gentle and handsome and well behaved.

But after a while, the family noticed something very strange indeed about their dog. Every single Tuesday night, about nine o'clock. Wylie disappeared. And she would be gone all night. But every Wednesday morning, she was at the door, waiting to be let in. Her silky coat was all sweaty and muddy and her feet heavy with weariness, but her bright eyes looked up at her masters as if she were trying to explain where she had been.

Week after week, the same thing happened. Nobody could imagine where Wylie went every Tuesday night. They tried to follow her to find out, but she always slipped away. It grew to be a real mystery. Where in the world did Wylie go?

In the city near the town where the kind young men lived was a big market. On Tuesday nights, the farmers used to come down from the hills, and drive their sheep through the city streets into the pens, ready to sell on Wednesday morning; that was the day they sold them. The sheep weren’t used to the city noises and sights, and they always grew afraid and wild, and gave the farmers and the sheepdogs a great deal of trouble. They broke away and ran about, in everybody’s way.

When Farrel was young, he had a Rat Terrier (捕鼠犬). He named it RK, short for Rat Killer. The following is how he came across the dog and adopted it.

That was sometime in the 1930s. He worked in the booth with the projectionist (电影放映员). He liked to see the theater from booth. At that time, people usually took a short break between reel (胶卷) changes. Farrel would take this chance to look at the theater audience. The people were usually talking or making a trip to the bathroom during the breaks. The lights were on, but turned down low. Farrel saw something that shocked him at this time. He actually saw 3 huge rats. They crossed the room and went under the seats. Then the movie was over, and he had to stay behind and clean up. That night he stayed in the projection room and watched from above. He saw several rats running around below. They were so huge that he could see them clearly from above. But when the lights were turned up brighter, the rats all disappeared.

He told the manager what he saw. The manager said that he knew about the rats. But he couldn't use poisons in the theater to get rid of them. So, Farrel suggested introducing some cats to the theater at night. The manager agreed to it and asked Farrel to find the cats. And he also asked Farrel to remove the cats in the morning and any dead rats that might be around.

Farrel found 4 large cats and took them to the theater. The cats were first kept in cages. Farrel thought they were ready for their duties as night “watchmen”. When the movie was over, Farrel opened the cage and released the new “night guards”. He left and headed home with a little excitement running through his mind. He couldn't help thinking about how many dead rats he would find the next morning.

10 . Dogs are often referred to as “man's best friend”. But MacKenzie, a four-pound Chihuahua (奇瓦瓦狗), who was named winner of the 2020 American Hero Dog competition, is making the world a better place for humans and animals alike. Often called the “Oscars for dogs”, the award recognizes dogs who make great contributions to society.

This year's competition attracted over 400 competitors from across the country. While all were impressive, it was tiny MacKenzie who won the judges' hearts. Born at a rescue shelter in Hilton, New York, in 2013, she had a cleft palate (腭裂) that required her to be tube fed for the first year of her life. A life-saving operation, performed in 2014, gave her the ability to eat and drink independently, enabling the tiny dog to focus on doing what she loved most: taking care of others.

The seven-year-old Chihuahua is now gainfully “employed” by the Mid Foundation, a Rochester, New York-based non-profit organization that shelters and cares for animals born with disabilities. MacKenzie's official job is “to provide love and care for baby rescue animals born with birth defects”. The Chihuahua is good at her job and has nurtured many different species-from puppies to kittens to turkeys, squirrels, birds and even a goat. She acts as their mother and teaches them how to socialize, play, and have good manners.

In addition to her role as an animal caretaker, MacKenzie also has the important job of greeting the foundation's volunteers and friends. The incredible dog, who has lost her ability to bark, also visits area schools to help children understand physical disabilities in both animals and people. Her heart-warming and inspiring story makes MacKenzie worthy of America's top dog honor!

1. What made MacKenzie American Hero Dog?

A．Being man's best friend.	B．Her struggle with disabilities.
C．Rescuing animals with disabilities.	D．Her contributions to a better world.

2. What can we infer about MacKenzie from Paragraph 2?

A．Her growth path was not easy.	B．She was deserted by her owner.
C．She was operated on at two years old.	D．She still needs taking care of by others.

3. What does the underlined word “nurtured” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A．Trained.

B．Comforted.

C．Tended.

D．Abused.

4. Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A．MacKenzie—The Most Hard-working Dog	B．MacKenzie—America's “Most Heroic Dog”
C．Chihuahua—Inspiration of Positive Energy	D．Chihuahua—Appeal for Animals' Protection
