2014-2015学年（高二，上）英语（必修5，北师大版）同步检测：Unit13 （Word版含答案） Class: Name: Marks: 满分（120） （，40分） （15小题；2分，30分） A My favorite book that I’ve read is the well-known novel Hatchet, by Gary Paulsen. The novel is about a thirteen-year-old boy named Brian Robeson. He goes to meet his father in Canada, but when he’s in the plane heading for his father, something goes terribly wrong — the pilot of the plane gets a sudden heart attack.

As you have probably guessed, Brian suffers from hunger and searches for food and shelter. When Brian finds any kind of food, he feels as if he just found money in the street. The third reason why this book is so well thought of is the creativity Gary has put into Brian.

I feel that Gary Paulsen gave Brian Robeson life, and that’s what made Hatchet a great book. 1. What challenge does Brian have to face? A. He can hardly keep himself warm. B. He is too young to protect himself. C. It’s very difficult to find food. D. He has no tools with him. 2. What’s probably the ending of the story? A. The boy is found and saved. B. The boy fails to defeat diffic
