On a warm Monday,Jenny Neilson bought a sandwich and parked her car under some trees.Rolling down the windows to let in fresh air,she settled back to enjoy her lunch.Suddenly she noticed a big bald man running through the parking lot.Before she came to realize what would happen,the man was there,shouting through her window,“Get out!”
Neilson refused.
Pulling open her door,the man seized her by the neck and hair,and threw her out of the car onto the ground.She screamed,grabbing her purse and the keys.
Two reporters of the local newspaper,Robert Bruce and Jeff Jackson,just outside their office building on a break,heard the screams and began running.
When they reached Neilson’s car,the attacker had jumped into the driver’s seat and was madly searching for the keys.Bruce opened the door,and he and Jackson dragged the man out.The attacker fought back.But even in his cornered panic,he was no match for the two athletic men.
Reggie Miller,a worker of the local newspaper,heard the screams,too.He rushed back to the office to phone the police,and then ran back with some plastic ropes—used to tie up newspapers.
With his arms tied tight behind him,the prisoner looked up and said coldly,“I hope you guys feel good about yourselves—you just caught one of the most wanted men.” They ignored him and waited for the police.Later,Bruce and Jackson were shocked to learn the man was the professional carjacker(劫车者)and suspected murderer,whose picture—but with a full head of hair—had been recently printed in their own newspaper.
Neilson considers herself lucky though she suffered injuries.She believes the story might have had a different ending if those good people had not come to her aid.“Unfortunately,” s
he said,“many people would never have done what they did,and that is the real truth.”

FLORENCE,Italy — Svetlana Cojochru feels hurt.The Moldovan has lived here seven years as a caregiver to Italian kids and the elderly,but in order to stay she’s had to prove her language skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a fictional job ad.
Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant(移民) population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits,or in some cases,citizenship.
Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs,such measures will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration(融合).Others say it’s only natural that newcomers learn the language of their host nation,seeing it as a condition to ensure they can contribute to society.
Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants,and some terms are even tougher.The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote understanding across cultures.
less is more英文理解Italy,which has a much weaker tradition of immigration,has witnessed a sharp increase in immigration in recent years.In 1990,immigrants numbered some 1.14 million out of Italy’s then 56.7 million people,or about 2 percent.At the start of this year,foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4.56 million of a total population of 60.6 million,or 7.5 percent,with immigrants’
children accounting for an ever larger percentage of births in Italy.
Cojochru,the Moldovan caregiver,hoped obtaining permanent residence(居住权) would help her bring her two children to Italy;they live with her sister in Moldova,where salaries are among the lowest in Europe.She was skeptical that the language requirement would encourage integration.
Italians always “see me as a foreigner,” an outsider,even though she’s stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently,she said.
4.Why does Cojochru have to take a language test?
A.To continue to stay in Italy.　
B.To teach her children Italian.
C.To find a better job in Italy.　
D.To better mix with the Italians.
5.Some people worry that the new language requirement may   　. 
A.reduce Italy’s population quickly　
B.cause conflicts among people
C.lead to financial difficulties　
D.put pressure on schools
