21． It was rush hour on the morning of June 1 in the West Texas city of San Angelo. Heather （6分）
Santellano, 36, was driving her white 2012 Mazda on Houston、 Harte Frontage Road with her nine-year-old daughter and ten-year- old son in the back. Suddenly, a red pickup truck cut them off. Santellano turned the wheel hard to the right, sending the Mazda skidding off the road and down an embankment(堤)that ended in a drop-off after about 50 feet. If the car didn't stop, it would go airborne and plunge onto the road some 20 feet below.
Then a bit of luck: As the car raced toward the edge, its undercarriage got stuck on the cement lip of the embankment ledge, stopping it cold. The occupants, however, were far from safe. The car had come to rest on top of a retaining wall, literally teetering(摇摇欲坠)on the edge of disaster. One sudden move by anyone inside could send it over.
Jacob Rodriguez watched the scene unfold from the 'T'ruck Repair Plant where he works. Then he and four other men ran to the car. They leaped onto the trunk to balance the weight as the terrified kids in the back seat watched.
Meanwhile, Julio Vasquez and his nephew, Marco Vasquez, were driving to their jabs at nearby Premier Automotive. Julio jumped out of the car to help while Marco went to the shop, grabbed a heavy-duty strap(皮带)，and returned to the swinging car. He fastened the Mazda to an P-350 truck that had been driven over by one of the other rescuers. With the car secured, the group carefully opened the back doors and helped the children out.
But their departure shifted the car's weight, causing it to lean forward. The men, still on-the trunk, asked Santellano to jump into the back seat to rebalance the weight. She did and then inched out the back door. Finally, the men carefully got off the trunk. Everyone was safe. 1、What do we know about Heather Santellano? A．She was a careless driver. C．She ran into a pickup truck.
B．She drove her twins to school.
D．She made a sharp turn to avoid the truck.
2、What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2? A．Stress the coming of good fortune. C．Add some background information.
B．Describe the car's dangerous situation. D．Explain why people came to the rescue.
3、What is the most critical in the rescue process? A．Balance. C．Calmness.
B．Cooperation. D．Gravity.
4、Which of the following statements is consistent with the theme of the passage? A．Persistence will pay off. . C．Many hands make light work.
B．One in trouble, all to help.、 D．Love makes the world go round.
22．（8分）In the mid-2000s, Waze Mobile co-founder Ehud Shabtai received a cutting-edge (尖端的)
gift from girlfriend: a GPS. The expensive gift was supposed to be helpful. But straight out of the box, it was already out of date.
Shabtai, a coding enthusiast, had an immediate reaction to reinvent. Shabtai’s solution? To build an app. With 80 million monthly active users globally and nearly 400,000 superusers who function much like Wikipedia volunteer editors (editing maps rather than words), Waze Mobile caught the eye of Google as a revolutionary approach to navigation (导航).
Acquired by Google in 2013, Waze’s value mainly lies in its high rate of user involvement. Unlike traditional navigation apps that simply show directions, Waze asks its users to report accidents and other road conditions in real time, so other users can avoid the traffic by using an alternative route.
The goal behind Waze’s approach is an ambitious one: not just avoid traffic, but end it altogether. Waze is finding new ways to put its loyal and active user base to use to make that vision a reality, including a plan to make carpooling (拼车) cool.
To be sure, traffic jams are troubling people all over the world. Waze has been quietly ahead of the game for some time. In 2013, when Waze was just a small digital-mapping business with limited resources it had something Google Maps and other competitors didn’t: richer GPS guidance thanks to its stream of live traffic reports from users.
These users were the basis of Shabtai’s plan to solve for his GPS device’s “silent” hardware: he grounded the app in software that could be perpetually updated by users, anywhere and anytime. Waze Carpool is going straight to the heart of traffic jams, trying to get more drivers off the road and into carpools. The app has already connected tens of thousands of rideseekers with drivers willing to ferry them along a shared route, and that trend could be the answer to a traffic-free future. 1、What did Shabtai do when he found his girlfriend’s gift out of date? A．He improved it. B．He took it apart. C．He put it away. D．He used it anyway.
2、What sets Waze Mobile apart from traditional navigation apps? A．It has the most users. B．It can indicate directions.
C．It reports road conditions in real time. D．Most users help edit its words. 3、What does the underlined word “perpetually” in paragraph 6 probably mean? A．Difficultly. B．Carefully. C．Greatly. D．Constantly.
4、What is mainly talked about in the text?
A．The rise of carpooling. B．An advanced navigation app. C．The development of Google. D．Traffic problems in the world.
