It's terrible and strange，but I don't really remember much about the hurricane jye.aiself.It all happened so suddenly.I was sitting in my room with my cat，Smartie，on my lap，when the roof just flew off.I was so frightened that I just froze.
Mom cried to get out quickly，but it was already too late by jye.ain.The rain was coming down so hard and so fast.Our street turned into a river in seconds.We were going nowhere.
At first，I was pleased we could stay at home，but soon it got really tough.Without a roof，staying inside was too dangerous.We just had drinking water that was sent to us by helicopter，but it was never enough.It was August，so it was really，really hot and it smelled so bad everywhere!1 just spent the days watching the boats going up and down the street and looking out for Smartie.He had disappeared the moment the storm hit.
Living in the open air，we became breakfast，lunch and dinner for the mosquitoes. But Mom said that whatever happens，we should always try to see the good side of things.It was difficult to stay positive，though.All we had left were the clothes on our backs.But as Mom kept on reminding us，we were all together and safe.Mom's words made us feel better.I remember us all lying under the midnight sky and looking up at the stars.Because there were no lights，we could see the Big Dipper，and the Milky Way.It was amazing!Despite the disaster，moments like those gave us hope for the future.
Although it was only a few days before we were rescued，it felt like months.We were taken to another town in a faraway county.Thankfully，Smartie came home just in time.None of us knew that we wouldn't be back for quite a while then.
Now，one year has passed and I'm back home in New Orleans.Some families have yet to return，but many others have come back.Although we are surrounded by reminders of the disaster.jye.ai are working together to rebuild our homes and our lives.Now we have another chance to look up at the stars of New Orleans，their beauty inspiring us and giving us confidence to move on.

1． To prepare for-real-life emergencies，rescue teams must practice.They practice putting on ice suits，working with ropes，and using hand signals to communicate.And once the lake freezes，then practice ice rescue.
On a training day，a firefighter puts on his ice suit.He then pushes air out of the ice suit.If not，the trapped air bubble could make him float.He walks out onto frozen lake to play the role of the "victim（受害者）".He shakes，not from cold，but worries about not knowing when he'll fall through!His first several steps feel solid.The ice seems thick.But 28 steps in：Crack!Water begins to come in through the ice.He slows down.At 31 steps-Plunk!He falls through the ice.He keeps him mouth shut so he doesn't swallow any water.It's time for him to pretend to be a victim，calling for help and struggling in the lake.
Two more firefighters，attached to the onshore team with ropes，walk onto the lake.They stay on different parts of the ice in case it breaks，both carrying protective equipment like a belt or a board.Meanwhile，onshore team members，wearing life vests，talk to the "victim" to keep him calm.Near the ice hole，a rescuer drops to her belly and moves slowly.The second rescuer rolls.Both methods spread out the weight so they don't also fall through the ice.
The firefighter with the board explains that they're there to help.She hands the board to the victim and tells him to catch it.The second firefighter enters the water and ties the belt securely to the victim.He gives a signal and the onshore members pulls the rope.As the rope tightens，the rescuer lifts the victim's legs so he's on his belly.Together，they sail across the ice.
Once they're on land，firefighters exchange roles.When every firefighter has had a turn at rescuing and playing "victim"，they all put on warm，dry clothes and head back to the station for hot chocolate.
（1）Why does the "victim" push air out of his ice suit before entering water？

D．To approach firefighters.
（2）What shouldn't the rescue members do during the practice？
A．Stay apart on the ice surface.
B．Walk as fast as possible on ice.
C．Be careful in their each step.

B．The rescue group perform such rescue practice daily.
C．The firefighters take turns to play the part of "victim".
