4 . A bull bison(野牛)in Yellowstone National park charged at a 9-year-old Florida girl. Luckily, the girl was left with only relatively minor injuries. Eyewitnesses say that a group of around 50 people—including the unidentified girl—were standing within 5 ~ 10 feet of the bison for at least 20 minutes near Observation Point Trail before the animal decided to charge. "We saw through the trees some people petting the bison, super close,” Hailey Dayton, 18, an eyewitness who filmed the incident. " Because it was agitated by all the people and noise, it just attacked.''

In Yellowstone, there are about 4 ,500 bison, the nation's largest and most important bison population on public land. Yellowstone is the only place in the lower 48 states where free-ranging bison have lived continuously since prehistoric times, according to a statement from the National Park Service (NPS). The Yellowstone population is also significant for being one of the few herds(群)in the country that has not been inter- bred(杂交)with cattle.

While they feed primarily on grass, they can be aggressive if annoyed. " Stay 25 yards away from all large animals—bison, bighorn sheep, deer etc. —and at least 100 yards away from bears and wolves," the statement read. " If need be, turn around and go the other way to avoid interacting with a wild animal in a close distance. ”

Despite the presence of seemingly more dangerous animals such as bears and wolves, bison have injured more people in Yellowstone than any other creature. "This is what happens when you make fun of wildlife and pay no mind to an animal's personal space,'' Dayton wrote in a tweet. " This family was petting the buffalo before it charged. And as you can see the parents saved themselves over their daughter. That really put me off. ”

6 . It was late, about 10: 15 p. m., when Janice Esposito arrived at the Bellport train station; she jumped into her Honda Odyssey and began the 20-minute drive home to her husband and seven-year-old son. She’d just returned from visiting her mother and had traveled the route many times before. She practically ________ on autopilot: a left onto Station Road, then a left on Montauk Highway, and then— wham! Out of nowhere a car T-boned Esposito’s minivan, ________ her to move backward some 100 feet onto the railroad tracks. She ________ in the minivan, bruised (撞伤) but mostly just knocked out by the ________ and the airbags.

As it happened, Pete DiPinto was getting ready for ________. He’d just closed his book and was getting under the covers when he heard the sound of metal on metal and breaking glass coming from not far outside his bedroom window. A volunteer ________ and retired teacher, DiPinto, 64, never ________ to think. He grabbed a flashlight and, still dressed in his pajamas (睡衣), ran out the door. “Any firefighter would have done what I did,” he told Nevosday. “We’re always on duty.”

The first car he came upon, 2,000 feet from his front yard, was the one that had ________ Esposito. Once DiPinto concluded the driver was OK, he looked around and ________ Esposito’s minivan positioned on the railroad tracks. And then he heard a terrible sound: the bells signaling an oncoming train.

“The gates were starting to come down,” he told Nezvsday. “I see the headlight of the train.” DiPinto ran quickly to Esposito’s minivan and knocked on the driver’s side window. She ________ looked at him, her eyes unfocused. “I don’t know where I am,” she said. She seemed unhurt. “Honey, you’re on the railroad ________,” DiPinto shouted. “We have to get you off right now!” He pulled hard on the handle, but the door was crashed in and ________. The heavy diesel train, traveling at 65 miles per hour, was moving fast toward them. DiPinto ran to the passenger side and threw open the door. “Please, don’t let her be ________,” he thought. He pushed aside the deflating (瘪了的) airbags, grabbed Esposito’s arms, and pulled her toward him across the passenger seat until he could help her out and quickly get her to ________ behind a signal box a few feet away. Within six seconds, he estimated, the train crashed into the minivan. “It was like a Hollywood movie” DiPinto told reporters the next day.

But this one had a twist. “Last night,” South Country Ambulance chief Greg Miglino told CBS New York, “the ________ arrived in pajamas, not in a fire truck.”

Cruz Genet, 11, and Anthony Skopick, 10, couldn’t agree. Were the birds out on the ice ducks or geese? There was only one way to find out. So    1    a chilly January evening last year, the two friends ventured onto the frozen pond near their homes in Frankfort, Illinois,     2    (get) a better look. First they cast a rock onto the ice to test it, Cruz told NBC5 Chicago, “Then we stepped on it.”     3    (convince) the ice would hold their weight, Anthony took a few steps, then...FOOMP. He crashed through the seemingly frozen surface. “There was no sound, no crack,” he told ABC 7 Chicago. “I just fell through instantly. ”

Cruz rushed to help his    4    (panic) friend. FOOMP — the pond swallowed him too. Cruz managed to lift himself out of the frigid water and onto a more solid section. He then carefully worked his way toward Anthony. But the ice didn’t hold, and in he    5    (fall) again. This time, he couldn’t get out.

The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling in their limbs. Any chance of their    6    (free) themselves was slipping away. Cruz was sure he was going to die. Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming for help. John Lavin, a neighbour driving nearby on his way to the grocery store,     7    (hear) her. He quickly pulled over. Seeing the boys, he grabbed a nearby buoy,     8    (kick) off his shoes, and ran into the slushy water,     9    (chop) his way through the ice with his free fist.

Lavin made his way to Cruz and Anthony and dragged them back to land. They were taken to the hospital, where doctors discovered that their five-minute stay in the water    10    (lower) their body temperature nearly ten degrees.

Fortunately, the boys have fully recovered, though they are still kind of awestruck by their fearless neighbour. “Just to think,” says Cruz, “if he wasn’t there, I could have died.”
