  　　A Heroic Woman
  　　The whole of the United States cheered its latest hero,Ashley Smith,with
  the Federal Bureau of lnvestigation saying it was planning to give a big
  reward to her for having a brave heart and wise mind.
  　　(46)She was moving into her apartment in Atlanta,Georgia early on the
  morning of March 12,when a man followed her to her door and put a gun to
  her side.“I started walking to my door,and I felt really,really
  afraid,”she said in a TV interview last week.The man was Brian
  Nichols,33.He was suspected of killing three people at an Atlanta
  courthouse(法院)on March 11 and later of killing a federal agent.(47)
  　　Nichols tied Smith up with tape,but released her after she repeatedly
  begged him not to take her life.“I told him if he hurt me,my little girl
  wouldn’t have a mummy,”she said.In order to calm the man down,she read to
  him from“The Purpose-Driven Life”,a best-selling religious book.He asked
  her to repeat a paragraph“about what you thought your purpose in life
  was-what talents were you given.”(48)
  　　“I basically just talked to him and tried to gain his trust,”Smith said.

  　　Smith said she asked Nichols why he chose her.“He said he thought I was
  an angel sent from God,and we were Christian sister and brogher,”she
  said.“And that he was lost,and that God led him to me to tell him that he
  had hurt a lot of peopole.”(49)She said Nichols was surprised when she
  made him breakfast and that the two of them watched television
  coverage(报道)of the police hunt for him.“I cannot believe that’s
  me,”Nichols told the woman.Then,Nichols asked Smith what she thought he
  should do.She said,“I think you should turn yourself in.If you don’t,lots
  more people are going to get hurt.”
  　　Eventually,he let her go.(50)A US$60,000 reward had been posted for
  Nichols’ capture.Authorities said they did not yet know if Smith would be
  eligible(有资格的)for that money.
  　　A.The local police were searching for him.
  　　B.Smith is a 26-year-old single mother with a daughter.
  　　C.Smith tried very hard to kill Nichols.
  　　D.She even cooked breakfast for the man before he allowed her to leave.

  　　F.Then she called the police.
  第6部分：完形填空(第51~65题，每题1分，共15分)
  　　下面的短文有15处空白，请根据短文内容为每处空白确定1个最佳选项。
  　　Walk a Quarter-Mile or Die
  　　If you can walk a quarter-mile,odds(可能性)are you have at least six years
  of life left in you,scientists say.And the faster you can(51)it,the longer
  you might live.
  　　While walking is no guarantee of(52)or longevity(长寿),a new study found
  that the ability of elderly people to do the quarter-mile was an“important
  determinant(决定因素)”in whether or not they’d be(53)six years later and how
  much illness and disability they would endure.
  　　“The(54)to complete this walk was a powerful predictor of health
  outcomes,”said study leader Anne Newman of the University of Pittsburgh
  School of Medicine.“In fact,we(55)that the people who could not complete
  the walk were(56)an extremely high risk of later disability and death.”
  　　Newman and colleagues recruited nearly 2,700 white and African-American
  men and women aged 70 to 79 to(57)the walk.All the participants were
  screened and determined to be in relatively(58)health,and they had all
  said they had previously walked that far with no(59).Only 86 percent of
  them finished,(60).
  　　The scientists then monitored the health and mortality of all(61)for the
  next six years.“There was a big gap in health outcomes(62)people who could
  complete the longer walk and people who could not,with the latter being at
  an extremely high(63)of becoming disabled or dying,”Newman said.“What was
  really surprising is that these people were not(64)of how weak they
  actually were.”
  　　Finishing times were found to be crucial,too.Those who completed the
  walk but were among the slowest 25 percent(65)three times greater risk of
  death than the speedier folks.
