A

It was 11 pm. Donald Lubeck was lying in bed. Outside, lightening lit up the sky, and thunder shook the house. Suddenly he heard the smoke alarm sounding. Lubeck walked down to see what happened; he opened the door to the kitchen, and flames just went out.

The sudden strong wind from the doorway immediately created a large fire from a small one, probably caused by lightening. Lubeck went back to his bedroom to call 911. “I felt safe because the room had a separate stairway,” he explained.

The phone didn’t work, and when Lubeck tried to go down the stairway, he was stopped by a wall of flames. Lubeck realized he was in trouble. His daughter and granddaughters, who lived with him, were away for the night.

Up a hill lived Lubeck’s neighbors, Jeremie Wentworth and his wife. From his house, Wentworth saw the black smoke. He rushed out, and headed towards Lubeck’s house. He knew Lubeck lived in the house.

He dialed 911. on the phone, the 911 worker warned Wentworth not to enter the house. “but I told the worker, ‘Sorry, but I’m going in. I can hear Lubeck shouting ‘Help me!’ I can’t let myself do nothing in this situation,’” he says. “I went in and shouted, ‘Don, where are you?’ Then I had to run outside to catch my breath.”

After one more try inside the house, he gave up. Then the wind parted the smoke just enough for him to see Lubeck on the second-floor bedroom. But there was no way to get to him. “I finally noticed a ladder(梯子),” says Wentworth. He set it against the wall and pulled Lubeck down. Just seconds later the floor fell down.

Within the year, Lubeck and his family built a new two-story house at the place. Wentworth and Lubeck don’t run into each other often, but Lubeck now knows that if he ever needs help, Wentworth will be there.

41. Where did the fire start?

A. In the kitchen B. In the doorway C. In the bedroom D. In the living room

42. Why did Lubeck feel
safe at the beginning?

A. Because he knew how to fight fire.

B. Because he thought it was a small fire

C. Because he knew his neighbor would help him.

D. Because he thought he could get out easily.

43. How did Lubeck get out of the house?

A. He went down a separate stairway.

B. 911 workers found him and helped him out.

C. He climbed out of a window by himself.

D. He climbed down a ladder found by Wentworth.

44. Which of the following words can best describe Jeremie Wentworth??

45. We can learn from the text that Donald Lubeck _________.

Before I read Finding Sophie I had r
ead several books about Jewish children, but this book was about something new to me: children who were on the Kindertransport and what happened to them. The Kindertransport was a special train. It brought children, who were Jewish and living in Germany, to England. England was a much safer country during the war.

I like the main character immediately! Her name was Sophie Mandel. She was fourteen years old for most of the story. Sophie was very brave. Can you imagine leaving your parents when you are only seven years old, and not knowing if you’ll ever see them again? This was what happened to Sophie. She was sent on the Kindertransport to England to live with her mother’s friend, Aunt Em. Sophie was lucky because Aunt Em loved her so much.

You have to concentrate when you are reading Finding Sophie because the story moves back and forth(来回) in time. Sometimes Sophie would think back to special times she had had with her parents. They called her Zoffie in German. The saddest part in the story for me was, as Sophie got older some of the memories of her parents began to disappear and Sophie wanted to stay in England forever with her Aunt Em and her new friends, Mandy and Nigel. One of my favorite parts of the book was when Sophie had a reunion(团聚) with Marianne, who had looked after her on the Kindertransport like a mother.

I wont tell you the ending, but I was happy for Sophie the way things turned out. If you are interested in learning about children’s experiences during the Holocaust(二战时对犹太人的大屠杀), you will enjoy reading this book.

46．How did Sophie go to England ?

A．By ship B．by train C．By truck D．By plane

47．What do you know about the book Finding Sophie?

A．Its story doesn’t follow the order of time
