A precious little girl in New York with burns over 75 percent of her body has only one wish for Christmas this year:enough Christmas cards to fill her aunt’s card tree.
Two years ago, Safyre Terry lost her father and three younger siblings in a fire someone lit in the upstairs stairwell leading to her family’s apartment. Safyre was found next to her father, who used his body to shield her from the flames. In addition to suffering from severe burns, Safyre lost her right hand and left foot. She underwent more than 50 surgeries to graft (种植) skin over her burns.
Since her mother had signed over custodial rights (监护权) to the state, Liz Dolder, Safyre’s aunt, petitioned (*) the courts to become her guardian. “Safyre lost everything — her father, her mother, her sister, her brothers, her home, her favorite toy, her favorite outfit — everything that was familiar to her,” Dolder told TODAY. “She even lost the one thing we all take for granted — her reflection. But she wakes every morning with a smile on her face. She is the true definition of hope, faith and love.”
Dolder told Buz*eed she bought a tree to hang Christmas cards on this year, and Safyre instantly got excited: “she said ‘I can’t wait to fill it up’ and my response was ‘Honey, that’s probably not going to happen. We maybe get 10 cards a year, and the card tree holds 100.’”
After Dolder shared a photo of Safyre next to the tree with her Facebook community, a supporter of the family, Kevin Clark, asked for permission to share the photo, along with an address where people could mail cards and fulfill Safyre’s Christmas wish. The request took off on social media. Many cards have already started to come in.
24. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “shield” in the second paragraph?
A. Present. B. Prevent. C. Protect. D. Recover.
25. Which word can best describe Safyre Terry?
A. Enthusiastic. B. Optimistic. C. Pessimistic. D. Realistic.
26. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A. A Little Girl Lost Her Family in a Fire.
B. A Little Girl Got Burnt in a Fire.
C. A Little Girl Got Adopted by Her Aunt.
D. A Little Girl Wished to Fill Her Aunt’s Card Tree.
27. Why did Dolder petition the courts to become Safyre’s guardian?
A. Because Safyre preferred to live with Liz Dolder.
B. Because Safyre was homeless and had to live with her.
C. Because Safyre’s mother transferred custodial rights to the state.
D. Because the government refused to take care of Safyre.
