体裁：记叙文话题：助人为乐时间：15分钟On a cold winter day，a group of strangers band together to save three children.The 30 miles of switchbacks(急转弯) that snake through the pine­covered mountains of Logan Canyon in Utah are enough to make most drivers' hands sweat.But Roger Andersen，a 46­year­old father of four，wasn't expecting any trouble on the road last New Year's Eve，when he set off for an unexpected ski trip to the Bear River Mountains with nin e­year­old daughter Mia，four­year­old son Baylor，and nine­year­old neighbor KenyaWildman.Andersen had driven through the canyon hundreds of times over the years.“We ski in that area at least 20 times a year，” says Andersen.“I know the spots that ice up a lot in the winter.”The weather was glorious for hitting the slopes—30 degrees and sunny—but the higher they drove，the slicker(滑溜溜的) the roads became.Rounding a sharp turn at mile maker 473，Andersen saw a truck that had skated off the road and tapped his brakes(刹车) suddenly.In an instant，the Honda Accord was sliding at 25 miles per hour toward the shoulder of the highway，then slipping down a steep ten­foot embankment(路堤) toward the cold Logan River.As it hit the water，the car tipped toward the passenger side，hesitated，and then rolled onto its roof and sank into the river. There was no time to tell the kids what to do.The crash had broken a few windows，and within seconds，the cab of the upside­down car was filled with water.“It was frightening how fast we we re completely underwater，” remembers Andersen，a soft­spoken product development manager.“You're thinking，‘Is this how it's all going to end？'”Then，Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids.Mia had been right next to him in the front seat；now，in the blackness，he couldn't find her.“I thought，if I don't get out，maybe none of us is going to get out.” Andersen untied his seat belt，swam through a broken window，and gasped for air at the surface.That's when he saw a group of men，about ten in all，appear at the top of the embankment.One after another，they jumped into the water，shouting,“Who else is in the car？”Andersen says respectfully,“It was like the sight of angels.”【语篇导读】Andersen的车不幸落入冰冷的河水中，一群素昧平生的人对车里的人展开了一场生死营救……1．Which word can best describe the feelings of most drivers when driving on this slope?A．Nervous.
