When Renee Butts was little, her dream was to bee a volunteer fireman because her father was one. Sadly, when she was 14, her father died and she was never able to volunteer with him. Renee’s story doesn’t end there, however, which is why I think of her as a true hero. She was strongminded and never gave up, which makes her a good fireman. Some days she must be ready for deal with any emergency(紧急情况 ), like fighting a fire, dealing with a car accident or helping someone who’s sick. Other days she is in the driver’s seat. Sometimes Renee works nine to eleven days a month, during these days she keeps working for 24 hours. She also has a family to take care of. Her husband is a fireman, too. Renee remembers the first time she fought a fire. She was awoken early in the morning by the alarm(报警器 ). She said she was very nervous but she also did what she had to do. When I asked Renee what the best part of her job is, she replied, ―Helping people and saving their lives.‖ I think that shows signs of being a true hero. She’s always glad to do anything for anyone in need. With 140 people in her station, Renee is one of the only three women. I think she’s great.

I hope someday to be just like her, to wake up and help people every day. 根据短文内容判断正，误。 (注意：考生将答题卡相应位置涂黑。 正确的涂“ A” , 错误的涂“ B” ) ( ) 41. Though her father died, Renee Butts never gave up her dream.
