After sunset on our last day at the farm I walked out into the desert. In this, the first pleasant moment for a walk after long hot hours, I thought I was the only thing out of doors. Suddenly I stopped. Before me a rattlesnake lay fixed, its head not yet drawn back to strike but only turned a little to watch what I would do. Many snakes will run away at the sight of a man but this rattlesnake felt no necessity to get out of any-body's way. He held his ground in calm watch-fullness waiting for me to show my intentions. My first aim was to take no notice of him; I had never killed an animal if I was not forced to kill. But I remembered that there were children, dogs and horses at the farm as well as men and women with thin clothes on; my duty was to kill the snake. I went back to the farm and returned with a stick. The rattlesnake had not moved; he lay like a wire but more quickly than I could stride he shot into a bush and set up his rattling, warning me by this that I had made an unreasonable attack and attempted to take his life and that if I insisted he would have no choice but to take mine if he could. For a moment I listened to this terrifying sound and then I struck into the bush with my stick and, chop-ping about, dragged him out of the bush with his back broken.
He struck once more at the stick but a moment later his neck was broken and he was soon dead althoughwww..com when I picked him up by the tail his mouth opened, proving that a dead snake may still bite. There was blood in his mouth and poison was dropping; it was not only a dis-gusting(令人作嘔的) sight but a pitiful one too. I dropped the body into a green bush and, as I did so, I saw him in my imagination, crawling over the sands as he might have done if I had let him go.

Bond had walked for only a few minutes when it suddenly occurred to him that he was being followed. There was no evidence for it except a slight headache and a little knowing the people near him but believed in his sixth sense and he at once stopped in front of the shop window he was passing and looked occasionally back along 46th Street. Nothing but a lot of miscellaneous people moving slowly on the sidewalks, mostly on the same side as himself, the side that was back from the sun. There was no sudden movement into a doorway, nobody wiping his face with a handkerchief to avoid recognition, nobody bending down to tie a shoelace.
He went on and turned into the Avenue of the Americans, stopping in the first doorway, the entrance to a woman’s underwear store where a man in a blue suit with his back to him was examining the black lace paints on a particularly realistic-dummy（模型）.
And then something grasped his arm and a voice came, “All right, Limey. Take it easy unless you want lead for lunch,” and he felt something press into his back just above the kidney.
There was a tap as his fist was caught in the other man’s left hand, and at the same time as the contact telegraphed to Bond’s mind that there could have been no gun, there came the well remembered laugh and the lazy voice saying: “No good, James. The angles have got you.”
Bond straightened himself slowly and for a moment he could only gaze into the smiling face of Felix Leiter with blank dis-belief, his built-up tension（緊張）slowly relaxing.
“So you were doing a front tail, you bastard（贗品）,” he finally said.
1. Bond realized that he was being followed by means of _____.
A. his common sense B. his sense of humour C. his sight D. his sixth sense
2. When Bond stopped and looked back along 46th Street, he observed all the following except _____.
A. most people on the sidewalks were on the same side as himself
B. no one suddenly turned into a doorway
C. a man was looking into the window of a store
D. no one wiped his face with a handkerchief
3. Why did Bond stop in the doorway to the underwear shop?
A. To see who was following him. B. To look at the man in the blue suit.
C. To avoid the sunshine. D. To look at the underwear.
4. What did the man mean by saying “Take it easy unless you want lead for lunch”?
A. Put up your hands.
B. Don’t move or I’ll shoot you.
C. If you want to have lunch, you must listen to me.
D. You go first slowly and we’ll have lunch together.
5. What is “a front tail”?
A. Pretending to be someone else. B. Following somebody from in front.
C. Following someone from behind. D. Standing in front of a shop window.
