After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An   41    had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great   42   to him, so I agreed.

During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not   43   it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me   44   I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about   45   obstacles and struggling to achieve my dreams.

     I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he   46   or ask, “Why   47  ?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and achieving his dreams.  48  , he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had   49   him because he was different. He just talked about his   50   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   51   the first gold medal I had won and put it around his   52  . I told him he was more of a   53   and knew more about success and conquering difficulties than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it   54   and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You   55   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   56   from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had   57   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   58   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.   59  , I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my   60   and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.

                                                                                                                  Your friend,

Do the Chinese people text in English words and Chinese characters? Of course most people in China text in our native language, which is the Chinese language. But I guess the reason that people ask this question is that they couldn’t imagine how people type thousand of Chinese characters with only 26 letters. As a matter of the fact, it’s only a small piece of cake. There are such many methods to type Chinese on computers and phones, of which the more popular is the pinyin system. Every child in China learn pinyin to pronounce Chinese words. It’s similar the International Phonetic Alphabet. With 26 letters, anyone can type Chinese. It is no problem trouble the Chinese people now.

According to EMTP and Stat Gear CEO Avi Goldstein, every driver should be taught how to get out of a car when it becomes submerged in water.

“Accidents and natural disasters often occur so quickly that it’s essential for drivers to be prepared,” says Goldstein. “In this case, preparation is simply knowing what should be done before it happens.”

    Goldstein offers the following lifesaving tips:

    1.Try to stay calm. The worst thing you can do is become overly agitated and panicked.

    2. Don’t try to open the door. This will cause the car fill with water very quickly.

    3. Unfasten your seat belt or cut it if it’s jammed.

    4. Help free anyone else in the car.

    5. Use a window punch — preferably spring-loaded. It’s nearly impossible to break a car window with your hands or feet.

    6. Exit through the broken window and swim up to safety.

    “Every car should be equipped with a window punch and seat belt cutter, but they are usually completely forgotten by car owners,” says Goldstein. For example, the T3 Tactical Auto Rescue Tool from Stat Gear features a 440c stainless steel serrated knife, seat belt cutter, spring-loaded window punch and LED light.

    Goldstein asserts that the T3 or another similar tool should always be within arms length of a driver. “If for any reason a driver becomes pinned into his or her seat, emergency tools need to be within reach--otherwise they are useless. They will do you no good in your trunk or backseat.” The following is a quick demonstration on how to escape a sinking car with a baby on board.

25. What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 1?

A. washed                B. cleaned            C. stuck               D. discovered

26. According to the passage, where should you put a window punch and a seat belt cutter in your car?

A. Near the driver’s seat.                            B. In the trunk.

C. In the back seat.                                    D. Under the engine.

 All school buses in the northwestern provinces ______ with satellite positioning devices next year.

   The day of my holiday arrived, but I wasn’t looking forward to it. I had little money and had only been able to afford to stay with my Aunt Rosa in Spain. So, I wasn’t really excited as I knew exactly what it was going to be like; Lots of noisy cousins and Aunt Rosa begged me to take her for a ride.

   After I had checked in, I made my way slowly to the departure gate. As I was waiting to board the plan, I kept thinking about my ideal holiday destination; Jamaica, with its long, sandy beaches and crystal clear water.

   As soon as the plane took off, I fell fast asleep and only woke to the sound of the announcement; “Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts, as we will shortly be landing in Kingston.” I froze in my seat. Was I dreaming? Kingston? Jamaica? I had boarded the wrong plane!

   Immediately after the plane landed, I explained the situation to the authorities. It seems there were also three of other passengers heading for Spain. Apparently it had been the airline’s fault, since the flight numbers for Spain and Jamaica were exactly the same! Therefore, with no flight to London for a week, the airline had no choice except to pay for our stay.

When you think you’re sick, if you believe your doctor, and if he tell you that you are going                        feel better, you probably will．Here is an example．Mrs Green was unable to go to sleep at night and was tiring during the day．So she went to see her doctor she had been known for years．The doctor listened to her and gave her a very carefully examination．Then he said to her, “There is nothing serious, but I understand you don’t feel good．I’m going to give you some           pills. You should take one after dinner and one before go to bed tonight．Call me tomorrow and tell me what you feel．”               

The next day, Mrs Green telephoned, saying , “Doctor, I have the first good night’s sleep in two months last night．” The doctor says, “It’s very good medicine．Just keep on taking them for a

week．” But in fact , the doctor just gave her some vitamin pills．

Men are spending more and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity (名人) chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver，according to a report from Oxford University.

The effect of the celebrity role models，who have given cooking a more manly picture，has combined with a more general drive towards sexual equality and men now spend more than twice the amount of time preparing meals than they did in 1961.

According to the research by Prof.Jonatahn Gershuny，who runs the Centre for Time Research at Oxford，men now spend more than half an hour a day cooking，up from just 12 minutes a day in 1961.

Prof.Gershuny said，“The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend.There has been 40 years of sexual equality，but there is another 40 years probably to come.”

Women，who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking，now spend just one hour and seven minutes—a great fall，but they still spend far more time in the kitchen than men.

Some experts have named these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”，who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife by the success of Ramsay，Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley－Whittingstall，Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd.

“I was married in 1974.When my father came to visit me a few weeks later，I was wearing an apron when I opened the door.He laughed，” said Prof.Gershuny.“That would never happen now.”

Two－thirds of adults say that they come together to share at least three times a week，even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table.Prof.Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a table—with many “family meals” in fact taken on the sofa in the sitting room，and shared by family members.“The family meal has changed a lot，and few of us eat—as I did when I was a child—at least two meals a day together as a family.But it has survived in a different format.”

24.What is one reason behind the trend that men spend more time cooking than before?

A.The improvement of cooks'status.        B.The influence of popular female chefs.

C.The change of female's view on cooking.  D.The development of sexual equality campaign.

25.What does the author think about the time men and women spend on cooking?

A.Men spend more time cooking than women nowadays.

B.Women spend much less time on cooking than before.

C.It will take 40 years before men spend more time at the stove than women.

D.There is a sharp decline in the time men spend on cooking compared with 1961.

26.How did Prof.Gershuny see the family meal according to the passage?

A.It has become a thing of the past.          B.It is very different from what it used to be.

C.It shouldn't be advocated in modern times.   D.It is beneficial to the stability of the family.

27.Which is the best title for the passage?

A.The Changes of Family Meals          B.Equality between Men and Women

C.Cooking into a New Trend for Men      D.Cooking—a Thing of the Past for Women

Bali is an Indonesia island that is rich in indigenous (本土的) culture. A lot of people say that Balinese culture is unique and that the people of Bali have always been content with the “now”. If you ask a Balinese person what heaven is like, the probable answer will be “just like Bali”. This only goes to show that most Balinese people are happy to be where they are and never worry.

One factor that contributes to this laidback lifestyle is the culture of close family ties in Bali. In the Balinese culture, support is always available. Balinese extended families are so tightly linked that all members usually live in the same block.

Balinese culture is based on a form of this religion, which is called “Hindu Darma”. This religion reached the island during the eleventh century. Most of the family customs and traditions as well as community lifestyles of the Balinese people are influenced by this. The religious influence even expands widely into the arts, which makes Bali distinct from the rest of Indonesia.

In spite of the fact that tourists flood to the island every year, Balinese people have managed to conserve their culture. Almost every native of Bali is an artist in some form or another. Parents and villagers have passed on their skills to their children, who all seem to have inclinations (爱好) either to music, dance, painting, or decoration.

Another remarkable mark of the Balinese culture is the senses of ceremonies known as the Manusa Yadnya. This marks the different stages of Balinese life. Cremation (火葬) is very popular on this island—and unlike in the West, death is a joyous and colorful event for the Balinese.

46. What do we know about Balinese according to the first two paragraphs?

A. They lead a very relaxing but unwealthy life.

B. They live in large families and are close to each other.

C. Their family members are distributed in different places.

D. Their extended families live too close together to get along well.

47. Bali is distinguished from the rest of Indonesia by ______.

A. people’s tight family relationship

B. the family customs and traditions

C. people’s great love for religion

D. the influence of religion on their culture

48. The underlined word “conserve” in Para. 4 can be replaced by “______”.

A. preserve        B. spread          C. form           D. expand

49. When a person dies in Bali, it is a common practice to ______.

A. express deep sorrow at his death

B. celebrate the death like a great event

C. sing and dance joyfully in his honor

D. remember what he did in his lifetime

50. What is the text mainly about?

A. Balinese religion.

One cold winter night, a fox woke up from his sleep. Feeling very   41  , he looked out of his foxhole to see what the weather was like. It had stopped   42   but now everything outside was white and frozen, and very   43   indeed.

He reached the   44   and was happy to find that only   45   of the lake was frozen. So he sat at the edge of the frozen part and lapped up(畅饮)the water.

When he was ready to leave, he had a   46   . His lovely red tail was frozen and stuck to the ice! He could have   47   really hard and he would have been   48   . But he didn’t want to lose the beautiful white hairs at the   49   of his tail. He loved his tail very much.

“I’ll wait for a while,” thought the fox. “Maybe the ice will thaw(解冻)soon and then my tail will be free again.” he was not   50   at all. The men were still asleep and he was safe before   51  .

The fox sat on the ice   52  . Soon the sky started to get lighter. He looked at his tail but now the whole tail was   53   to the ice! The poor fox was frightened now.   54   it was dawn, the men would come to the lake and they liked to   55   foxes.

Some people were coming towards the lake! He was terrified but he couldn’t   56  . A wolf ran past at that time and the fox called out to him for   57  . The wolf looked at the fox’s tail. He knew how to   58   the poor fox. He went up to the fox and bit off his tail   59  .

The hesitating fox had lost his whole beautiful red tail just   60   he had not wanted to lose a few white hairs on the tip.

Our brains work in complex and strange ways. There are some people who can calculate the day of the week for any given date in 40,000 years, but who cannot add two plus two. Others can perform complex classical piano pieces after hearing them once, but they cannot read or write.

Dr. J. Langdon Down first described this condition in 1887. He called these people idiot savants. An idiot savant is a person who has significant mental injury, such as in autism (自闭症) or retardation. At the same time, the person also exhibits some extraordinary skills, which are unusual for most people. The skills of the savant may vary from being exceptionally gifted in music or in mathematics, or having a photographic memory. One of the first descriptions of a human who could calculate quickly was written in 1789 by Dr. Benjamin Rush, an American doctor. His patient, Thomas Fuller, was brought to Virginia as a slave in 1724. It took Thomas only 90 seconds to work out that a man who has lived 70 years, 17 days, and 12 hours has lived 2,210,500,800 seconds. Despite this ability, he died in 1790 without ever learning to read or write.

Another idiot savant slave became famous as a pianist in the 1860s. Blind Tom had a vocabulary of only 100 words, but he played 5,000 musical pieces beautifully.

In the excellent movie Rain Man, made in 1988 and available on video cassette, Dustin Hoffman plays an idiot savant who amazes his brother played by Tom Cruise, with his ability to perform complex calculations very rapidly.

Today we more clearly recognize that the idiot savant is special because of brain impairment. Yet not all brain injury leads to savant skills. Some studies have shown that people who have purposeful interruption of the left side of the brain can develop idiot savant skills. However few people wish to participate in such experiments. There are many excellent reasons for not undergoing unnecessary experimentation on one’s brain. The term idiot savant is outdated and inappropriate. Virtually all savants have a high degree of intelligence and are thus not idiots.

5. The first paragraph is presented by ________.

A. stating the background of the text

B. making a definition of “idiot savant”

C. giving examples to lead in the topic

D. making comparison to show our brains work

6. According to the text, which of the following statements is true?

A. The concept “idiot savant” was first out forward by Dr. Rush.

B. Thomas Fuller who could calculate quickly is poor in art.

C. The idiot savant played by Dustin Hoffman is good at calculation.
