Three students are choosing a course at the West Midlands College of Technology.

Q: What is scrapbooking?

When I make a scrapbook page, I take a few of my family photos and put them into a “layout”---a page that uses fancy paper, stickers ,drawings, and words to show the theme(主题).For example, this page about my

son is called “First Day at School.” Here’s a photo of him and one of his drawings, and I decorated it with ribbons, stickers and so on. When you make a scrapbook, you put words and pictures together to show the important times in your life. It’s like a

76 .

Q: How did you get started?

I made my first scrapbook ten years ago, when my father died. When I looked through his desk, I found the most wonderful things---like the cards my parents sent each other, and photos from his Army days. Those were such precious memories. I couldn’t 77 anything, so I made two scrapbooks, for my brother and me.

Q:Do you know other people who made scrapbooks?

Oh, yes! We call ourselves “scrappers,” and we love to get together. We often have “crops,” big parties where we all 78 our scrapbooks. We bring our scissors and papers and our boxes of photos, and we talk while working on new pages. It’s time for enjoyment, when friends show pictures and tell stories about our families, and our lives. 79 , we create a book to keep those memories.

Q: 80 .

I think people want to keep their family stories, and display them to other people. When you make a scrapbook, you can pass the stories to your children, and your grandchildren. So many people today want to do that! If you go online, you will find scrapbooking websites from Norway, New Zealand and South

Africa. We all have boxes of pictures, and we all want to keep those precious memories. That’s the real value of scrapbooking: sharing your family and your story.

B. Who has set up scrapbooking websites?

C. Why is scrapbooking so popular these days?

D. How can you get things for scrapbooking? C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words. (14’) We have heard about people who have special memories. Recently there has been a report about a woman from Australia who can remember almost every single d 81 of all the events in her daily life. Rebecca Sharrock, 25, is one of just 80 people worldwide who have been identified as having Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory(超级自传体记忆症). It means she can remember every small event—which most people would f 82 within days—as if it had happened just moments ago. “I remember my mum placing me in the driver’s seat of a car and taking a picture of me when I was

twelve years old,” she said. “That’s my e 83 memory. I remember every day since then. I can’t tell all the dates e 84 because I was too young to understand calendars, but I remember what I did that day, what the weather was like and so on.” Rebecca can also re-experience taste. If she’s eating something unpleasant, she thinks about Black Forest cake, her favorite food, and the memory will be so p 85 that she can nearly “taste” it. However, there are times when her memories prove to be painful as it’s not just events that she remembers. “When I relive(再体验) memories, the feelings r 86 ,too.” Rebecca said. “For example, I remember falling over when I was three at my grandparents’ house and hurting my left knee. Talking about it now, I feel painful in my left knee.” “At night, I have to sleep with the r 87 and a soft light on,” she added. “If it’s too dark or quiet, my mind would be filled with all those memories and I can’t sleep.”

D. Answer the questions. (12’) It was 3:21 a.m. when ten-year-old Glenn Creamer was woken up by the smell of burning. Except for the cracking(爆裂声) of flames somewhere below, there was not a sound in the two-floor house. But he realized at once what was happening. As his father was away on night duty at a local factory, Glenn was worried about the safety of his other, his 14-year-old sister Karen and his 12-year-old brother Todd. He ran downstairs through the smoke-filled house to push and pull at Karen and Todd until they sat up. Then he helped them through the safety of the garden. There, his sister and brother, taking short and quick breaths and coughing, couldn’t move any more. The ten-year-old raced back into the house and upstairs into his mother’s room. He found it impossible to wake her up and there was nobody to help Glenn carry her to the garden. But the boy kept calm. As a fireman said later, “He acted with all the self-control of a trained adult.” On the bedroom telephone, luckily still working, Glenn called his father. After Glenn made sure his father would telephone the firemen and ambulance service, he got on with the task of saving his mother. First he filled a bucket with water from the bathroom and threw water over his mother and her bed. In this way, she would be kept away from the fire before the firemen arrived. Then, with a wet cloth around his head he went back to the garden. He could hear the fire engine coming up, but how would the firemen find his mother in the smoke-filled house where fire had almost covered the ground floor? Fetching a ball of string(绳) from the garage, Glenn raced back into the house and rushed upstairs to his mother’s room. He tied one end of the string to her hand. Then he began to run back. He laid out the string as he went through the hall and back out into the garden. Minutes later he was telling fire Chief John Coughlan, “The string.” Mrs. Creamer was carried to safety as the flames were breaking through her bedroom floor. 88. Did Glenn realize there was a fire when he woke up?

89. Where were Karen and Todd when Glenn tried to save their mother? 90. Who telephoned the firemen and ambulance service?

91. How did Glenn help his mother stay safe before the firemen arrived?
