(2012·福建四地六校第一次联考)We loved to play hide-and-seek，and tackle-the-man-with-the-football, as well as make-believe games like cowboys and Indians or cops and robbers.In the world of make-believe guns were created by sticking your thumb straight up and extending your index finger straight out while curling the other three fingers around a make-believe pistol grip. If someone pointed his “gun”at you and shouted“Bang！”or “Pow！”，you were considered dead and were obligated to fall to the ground immediately without moving.
One day we were playing cowboys and Indians deep in the mountains.Imagining myself as John Wayne，better known as the Duke, I had my“five- shooters”out and ready for action.I climbed a huge tree to get a better view of where the “bad guys”were hiding.Climbing six to eight feet off the ground，I noticed Gary Browning(my cousin)quietly sneaking along，ready to shoot the first thing that moved.I allowed him to move in a little closer before taking aim and shooting; however.I was disturbed by the other side of the tree.
Turning to investigate，I found myself staring straight down the index finger of Curtis Gibson.“Pow！”he shouted from the ground.Panicked that I was so far up the tree, I began climbing down as fast as I could.“The Duke has been shot in the foot！”I screamed.Remember, I was obligated to fall，but I was eight feet off the ground in a tree！“Bang！”shouted Gary who was now aware of my hiding place.“The Duke has been shot in the shoulder！”I screamed as I kept climbing down.“Pow！Pow！”A double shot came from Curtis.“The Duke has been shot twice in the calf(小腿)！”I squalled，nearly reaching the ground.Then as I was dangling from the lowest limb.Curtis and Gary emptied their imaginary ammo(弹药)into me.“Pow！Bang-Bang！Pow！Pow-Pow！Bang！”From just about a foot I finally fell to the ground and announced，“The Duke is dead！”

(2011·烟台模拟)Mayor Boris Johnson Monday outlined plans to make London “the cleanest，greenest city on Earth ”by the 2012 Olympics and called for commitments from other world cities at a climate change conference.The leaders of the world's 40 largest cities are meeting in Seoul this week for a summit on combating global warming—the third to be held since 2005.
“What we should do in Seoul is that we will stop the endless addiction of mankind to the internal combustion engine (内燃机)，”said Johnson.He said at a press conference the world's cities consume 75 percent of the world's energy and produce 80 percent of the emissions which cause climate change.“The problem of our planet is an urban problem，”Johnson said.
He said the British capital wants to use the Olympics “to drive the greening and the improvement of our city ”and noted that London is committed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 60 percent by 2025.

Johnson proclaimed himself a “passionate cyclist ”and said he would push ahead with cycle
