The weather in some parts of the United States changes a lot and often very quickly.
James and Jennifer were 1
from Nevada to Idaho with their five-month-old son. Shortly after they left home it began to snow. The snow was soon so 2
that it became a blizzard
(暴风雪). The blizzard went on for many hours. By the time it was over,there was about 1 5
meters of snow on the road and it was 3
to drive. They looked around for a house to stay in,but they could see nothing. They looked for another 4
,but there wasn’t one to travel on. They had to stay where they were. They stayed there for 5
days. They had very little to eat or drink. They ate some cookies they had in the car,and they even had 6
for water. Jennifer was able to feed her baby herself.
After five days,they knew they could no longer stay in their car. James made a large hole in the snow for Jennifer and the baby to stay in,and he started the long walk to 7
. In 22 hours he walked over 45 kilometers. At last he got to the town of Vya. James was very 8
and could only just speak,but he was able to tell the people in the town where Jennifer and his son were. The people in the town hurried to 9
Jennifer and her baby. When they found them,the baby was crying loudly. They took them to hospital,where the doctors 10
them.
Many people thought it was a miracle that the family didn’t die in such a blizzard.

参考译文
美国部分地区的天气变化很大,而且常常变得也很快。
詹姆斯和詹妮弗正带着5个月大的儿子从内华达州驱车前往爱达荷州。离家不久,天就开始下雪。很快,雪越下越大,转成了暴风雪。暴风雪持续了多个小时。雪停时,路面积雪深度已达1.5米左右,开车变得很危险。他们环顾四周,想找一座房子停留一下,但什么都看不见。他们想再找一条路,但没有一条路能够通行。他们只能待在原地。他们在那里停留了5天,缺吃少喝。他们吃了些车上的曲奇饼干,甚至吃雪补充水分。詹妮弗自己设法给宝宝喂食。
5天后,他们知道不能继续待在车里了。詹姆斯在雪地里挖了个大洞,让詹妮弗和宝宝待在里面,他则开始长途步行寻找救援。在22小时的时间里,他走了超过45公里。最后,他来到瓦厄镇。詹姆斯非常疲惫,只有说话的力气,不过他还是向镇上的人说清楚了詹妮弗和儿子的位置。镇上的人们急忙去营救詹妮弗和孩子。当镇上的人找到他们时,宝宝正在大声哭喊。他们把母子俩送往医院,在那里,医生挽救了他们的生命。
许多人认为,这家人在如此大的暴风雪中没有丧命,真是个奇迹。
