(NEW YORK) A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a two-year-old girl in
Manhattan said he didn't think twice before diving into the freezing East River.
Tuesday's Daily News said 29-year-old Julien Duret from France was the man who left the spot quickly after the rescue last Saturday.
He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Seaport museum. He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dived in after him.
“I didn't think at all,” Duret told the Daily News. “It happened very fast. I reacted very fast.”
Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier(码头) when he saw something falling into the water.
He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. Immediately, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.
Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend shortly after.
The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn't realize his story of heroism had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the city the next morning.“I don't really think I'm a hero,” said Duret. “Anyone would do the same thing.”

47.What did Duret do shortly after the ambulance came? A.He was interviewed by a newspaper.

48.Who dived after Duret into the river to save the little girl?

B.Duret dived into the water before the girl's father. C.The rescue happened on the day Duret left for France.

These days, we write emails, text messages, and lists. Everyone’s a writer, including you. But how do you make yourself different from others? How do you stand out from the crowd?
There’s more to becoming a better writer than improving your writing, although that’s certainly part of it. Here are a few useful ways:
1. Make the commitment (投入): sometimes the difference between a working writer and would-be writer is as simple as making a commitment to writing and then stick with it.
2. Do the work: write as often as you can, every day if possible. Spend more time writing than talking about writing or thinking about writing.
3. Engage with other writers: they will keep your fire burning, and they can help you with your writing. Find a writing club or a group of writers.
4. Read: the single best way to improve your writing, develop ideas, and stretch your imagination is to read.
5. Build a platform: thanks to the Internet, it is cheaper and easier to build a platform today than it ever was before. Learn how to market yourself, find your readers, connect with them, and sell your books!
6. ________: I like to think of a reading audience as a group of people connected by a common interest or passion. Who are your readers?
7. Be yourself: don’t write what’s hot, write what’s in your heart.
Do you take steps every day to become a better writer? What steps have you taken to develop your craft and grow as a writer? Do you have any tips to add to this list? Share your thoughts by leaving a comment, and keep writing!
51. What does the underlined part in the first paragraph probably mean? A. You are the same as the others.
B. Everyone should write emails every day. C. It is easy for us to be famous writers. D. We often write emails or something else.
