After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed. During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams. I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.” Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before: Dear Dick, My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can. I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me. Your friend, Matthew 1. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that_______. A. the boy never complained about how unlucky he was to have this disease B. the boy never complained about not being able to go to school C. the boy never complained why the author had never come to see him before D. the boy never complained about not gettig a medal 2. From the passage we learn that ________. A. Matthew was an athlete B. Matthew was an optimistic and determined boy C. The author used to have the same disease as Matthew had D. Matthew became a champion before he died 3.Matthew didn’t accepted the author’s medal because . A. he thought it was too expensive B. he was sure that he could win one in the future C. he thought it was of no use to him as he would die soon D. he would not be pitied by others 4.

If you are in charge of a project, the key to success is getting everyone to want to help you. As a director, I point, I suggest. I gently push the actors in the direction I want them to go. In the 1986 movie“Nothing in Common”, Jackie Gleason’s character, Max Basner, gets fired from his job as a clothing salesman. The scene, shot on a boat, shows Max’s despair about being out of work. I was looking for some gesture that would allow Max to show his feelings. Jackie had far more experience at everything than I did, and at first I was frightened. What could I possibly tell “The Great One” about acting? Finally I decided to direct by suggestion, and sat down with Gleason to talk about the scene. “So Max is sad, right?” I said.Gleason nodded.“And he’s probably still carrying his pens with name on them—the ones he used to hand out to his customers, right?”Gleason nodded.“So what would you want to do with the pens after you were fired?”He was silent for a moment. “Why don’t I throw them overboard?”I stood up and turned up and turned toward the crew. “Hey, everybody, Jackie has a wonderful idea. Let’s shoot it.” After filming the scene, Gleason called me over and said with a smile. “Garry, what kind of wonderful idea am I going to have tomorrow?” You and your team can discover the answers to problems together. When there are no prizes or gold stars for who gets the solution first, you’ll all benefit when everything turns out right. 1.According to the writer, to succeed in a project you are in charge of , you should______. A. make everyone work for you B. get everyone willing to help C. let people know you have the idea D. keep talking to them 2. “The Great One” in Paragraph 2 refers to______. A. Gleason B. the director himself C. Max D. Max’s boss 3. After filming the scene, Gleason called the director over and smiled at him. That’s because Gleason________. A. thought the director gave him a good idea B. formed the habit of thinking of ideas while talking C. was not confident about his acting D. appreciated the director’s directing skill 4.The most suitable title for the passage is “_______”. A. Directing a Film B. The Key to Success C. A Wonderful Experience D. Working with Film

The sea has always interested man. From it he can get food, minerals, and treasure. For thousands of years, he could sail on it. But he could not go far beneath its surface. Man wants to explore deep into the sea. However, he is not a fish. He must breathe air, so he can’t stay under the water’s surface for any length of time. To explore deep water, man faces even more dangers and problems. A diver who wants to stay under water for more than a few minutes must breathe air or a special mixture of gases. He can wear a diving suit and have air pumped to him from above. He can carry a tank of air on his back and breathe through a hose(软管) and a mouthpiece. Water weighs 800 times as much as air. Tons of water pushes against a diver deep in the sea. His body is under great pressure. When a diver is under great pressure, his blood takes in some of the gases he breathes. As he rises to surface, the water pressure becomes less. If the diver rises too quickly, the gases in his blood form bubbles(气泡). The diver is then suffering from the bends(潜函病). The bends can cause a diver to double up in pain. They can even kill him. 1. On the whole, this text is about _________. A. special mixtures of gases in deep sea. B. the problems a diver faces in deep sea. C. air pressure under the surface of sea water. D. a kind of illness that man suffers in the sea. 2.The text does not say so, but it makes you think that ____________. A. deep-sea divers should be in good health. B. divers explore the deep sea only for treasure. C. there is a special mixture of gases under the sea. D. diving under the water too quickly causes a kind of illness. 3.Why does a diver get the bends? A. The air in his blood is used up. B. His diving suit weighs too much. C. He comes to the surface too quickly. D. He tries to do exercise under the sea.

In the future your automobile will run on water instead of gas! You will be able to buy a supercomputer that fits in your pocket! You might even drive a flying car! For each prediction that has come true today, several others have missed by a mile. Many of these predictions didn’t consider how people would want to use the technology, or if people really needed it in their lives or not. Let’s look at some predictions from the not-too-distant past. Robot Helpers Where’s the robot in my kitchen? Nowhere, of course. And he’s probably not coming anytime soon. Robots do exist today, but mostly in factories and other manufacturing environments. Back in the 1950s, however, people said that by now personal robots would be in most people’s homes. So why hasn’t it happened? Probably because robots are still too expensive and clumsy. And maybe the idea of robots cooking our dinners and washing our clothes is just too weird. At home we seem to be doing fine without them. Telephones of Tomorrow In 1964 an American company introduced the video telephone. They said by the year 2000 most people would have a video phone in their homes. But of course the idea hasn’t caught on yet. Why? The technology worked fine, but it over—looked something obvious: people’s desire for privacy. Would you want to have a video phone conversation with someone after you just step out of the shower? Probably not---it could be embarrassing! Just because a technology available doesn’t always mean people will want to use it. And finally, how about that crazy prediction of the flying car? It’s not so crazy anymore! But a flying car remains one of the most fascinating technology ideas to capture our imagination. Keep watching the news, or perhaps the sky outside your window, to see what the future will bring. 1. The whole passage is mainly about ________________. A. predictions that have come true. B. predictions that haven’t come true. C. why predictions don’t come true easily. D. what technology will bring about. 2.The author of this passage won’t believe that _________________. A. predictions needn’t consider people’s practical use of technology. B. the future isn’t always easy to guess. C. not all past predictions have come true. D. many of the high—tech things our parents thought we’d be using by now simply never appeared. 3.The underlined word “weird” probably means __________. A. wonderful B. stupid C. practical D. strange 4. What does the author think of the flying car? A. It is too difficult to imagine. B. It is too crazy an idea. C. It is likely to be made. D. It is often reported in the news.

阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求回答问题。（注意字数要求）。（答案写在答题卷的横线上） Being healthy means taking care of yourself physically and mentally. Here are some of my best tips on how to do both: Break a bad habit. You don’t really “break” habits. You replace the unwanted behavior with something that prevents you from doing it and that doesn’t have unhealthy side effects. So if your problem is that you eat too much when you get home from work, find something new to do that is incompatible（不能共存的）with what you usually do. You can’t walk around the track at the school and pig out in your kitchen at the same time. Grow your marriage. Relationships are negotiated, and the negotiation never stops. It’s always a give-and-take, always requires work. It’s like if you planted a garden and came back six months later----you wouldn’t even be able to find it. You have to tend it, feed it, weed it, deal with the problems. Beat stress. My dog, Maggie, is the best anti – stress tool I have. A few minutes petting, scratching or playing with her, and . Exercise also helps. Just about every day, I’m on the tennis court. It’s a great workout, and if I don’t have that, I don’t cope as well, sleep as well or think as well. Refocus your anger. Expressing your anger is just not that good an idea. You say things you don’t mean. Instead, recognize that anger is usually a symptom of hurt, fear or frustration（挫折）, and deal with the causes rather than blow up. When you do that, you’re a problem solver. Don’t medicate with food. It never, ever works. You’re denying your issue by eating your way through it, instead of saying, Hey, I’ve got a problem. 1．What’s the best title? （Answer within 10 words.） _____________________________________________________________ 2．Fill in the blank in the passage in your own words.（Answer within 10 words.） _____________________________________________________________ 3．Complete the following statement with proper words.(no more than 4words). Marriages are much like gardens. You need to _______________ your marriage as you do to your garden. It takes much effort to maintain your marriage. If there is a problem, you should deal with it immediately 4.What does the word “it” (paragraph 2) probably refer to? (no more than 3 words) _____________________________________________________________ 5．How to refocus your anger according to the whriter? （ Answer within 30 words.） _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________
