7、 Beijing Winter Olympics, giving us a glimpse of their generations nature.Obviously, the young generation is filled with “brave warriors” who want to challenge impossibilities and push boundaries. Freestyle skier Gu Ailing is a good example. After she finished strong in the first two jumps in the wo

8、mens free-ski Big Air event, it was certain that she could get a medal. But instead of taking heed of it, the 18-year-old skier pushed herself to the limit. On the last jump, Gu decided to attempt a difficult trick: a left double cork 1620four and a half rotations in the airbefore landing. “I have n

9、ever done the left 16 before. I hadnt prepared much for it apart from two days on the air bag,” Gu told China Daily, “but I felt it was a chance.”But for these young athletes, the sport is never just about scores, but also about having as much fun as possible.Born in the US, Gu faced criticism and d

10、oubts for representing China in the Beijing Winter Olympics. When questioned by The Guardian, the girl said bluntly she wasnt trying to make everyone happy. “Im an 18-year-old girl out here living my best life. Im having a great time.” Gu said. “It doesnt really matter if other people are happy or n

11、ot, because I feel I m doing my best and Im enjoying the entire process.”Gus good friend, Chinese snowboarder Su Yiming also shares a similar attitude. He takes sports as a way to have fun. After he was judged to have lost the gold to Canadian athlete Max Parrot in the mens slopestyle final, the 17-

12、year-old didnt feel upset. Instead, he was happy to have the chance to compete with his idol.“When I was on the podium hugging Max Parrot, it felt unreal,” Su told China Daily. “All I did today was enjoy the runs and concentrate on my tricks. As long as I am on my snowboard I am happy.”4The phrase “

15、ng athletes have shone brightly at the Beijing Winter Olympics.“Your password has expired,” a message said on my screen, with instructions for changing it. Coming up with a new code doesnt seem like a big deal, unless you work at my company, where we have to change it monthly, using at least one upp

16、ercase character, one lowercase character, one symbol, and one number. Oh, the whole password cant be fewer than eight characters. And I cant use any of the same passwords Ive used in the past three months.Suddenly I was very angry. What didnt make it any better was that I was deeply depressed after

17、 my recent divorce. Disbelief about what she had done to me was all I thought about. Every day.I remembered a tip Id heard from my former boss. Hed said: “Im going to use a password to change my life.” I couldnt focus on getting things done in my current mood. There were clear signs of what I needed

18、 to do to get control of my life again.My password became the sign. My password reminded me that I shouldnt let myself be a victim of my recent breakup and that I was strong enough to do something about it.I made my password Forgiveh3r. I had to type this several times a day. The simple action chang

19、ed the way I looked at my ex-wife. That constant reminder led me to accept the way things had happened and find a new way of dealing with my depression. As the month wore on, I felt a slow healing begin to happen. By the time my server asked me to reset my password the following month, I felt free.O

20、ne month later, my dear Exchange server asked me yet again to reset my password. I thought about the next thing that I had to get done. My password became Quitsmoking4ever. I quit smoking overnight. This password was a painful one to type during that month, but doing it helped me to yell at myself i

21、n my mind as I typed that statement. It motivated me to follow my monthly goal. One month later, my password became Save4tripthailand. Guess where I went three months later: Thailand.Seeing how these reminders helped to achieve my goals kept me motivated and excited. While its something difficult to

25、known”. The person who answered the call was not the captains first choice. It was a young man who had left medical school without completing his degree. Whats more, he had recently received a letter from his father predicting that he would be “a disgrace to yourself and all your family”. Despite al

26、l this, his adventures on this ship would lead to one of the most important scientific discoveries of all time.The young man in question, Charles Darwin, was a geologist and naturalist, fascinated by rocks, plants and animals. The journey gave him the chance to study various living things in their n

27、atural environments. After Darwin had spent some time in South America, his room on the ship was crowded with samples of the plants and animals he had collected. As he studied these, he asked himself the question: how did different species come to exist?At that time, people believed that all species

28、 had appeared on Earth at the same time, and had not changed since. But Darwin began to think differently. He noticed that some species of animals were very similar to each other. Maybe animals evolved as they adapted to their changing environments. It was just an idea, but enough to inspire Darwin

29、to look for more evidence.When the Beagle reached the Galapagos Islands in 1835, Darwin saw a variety of new species, but it was the birds that interested him the most. Darwin noticed that there was a difference between the finches(雀科小鸟) on each of the islands. It seemed their beaks(鸟喙) had evolved

30、according to what food was available on that particular island.Darwin suspected the finches had evolved from a common ancestor, which had arrived on the islands a long time before. Over time, it had slowly evolved into many new species. And that was the answer to how new species of plants and animal

31、s came to exist: they evolved from earlier ancestors.It was a completely new ideaa theory of evolution. Darwin explained this theory in his book, On the Origin of Species. Many people refused to believe that living things, including humans, had evolved from lower forms of life. But Darwins scientifi

32、c studies were so convincing that more and more people started to believe his theory.Today, On the Origin of Species has changed ideas about life on Earth forever. And it all began with the journey on the Beagle.12Why did the captain of the Beagle choose Darwin to sail together?ABecause he appreciat

33、ed Darwins talent and wanted to offer some help.BBecause he had recently received a letter asking for help from Darwins father.CBecause he hoped this valuable expedition would also benefit someone who needed it.DBecause he thought Darwins adventures might lead to an important scientific discovery.13

34、Which of the following is the correct order to describe Darwins exploration?Darwin suspected that the finches had evolved from a common ancestor.Darwin proposed a theory that living things had evolved from lower forms of life.Darwin wanted to know how different species came to exist.Darwin noticed t

35、here was a difference between the finches on the Galapagos Islands.Darwin studied various living things in their natural environments.ABCD14What was peoples original attitude towards Darwins book, On the Origin of Species?ASupportive.BCritical.CNeutral.DSuspicious.15Which of the following would be t

37、Stages to Realize OurselvesMany modern people have the problem that they dont know who they are and what their purpose is. _16_ Once high school seniors graduate, they seem to lose their identity. They once studied hard, but after they stop working, they begin to lose their way.In the theory of the

38、Hierarchy of Needs, Abraham Maslow put forward a similar situation, which consists of the five levels of a persons need. The fifth and final level is self- realization, which is where our final achievement lies. _17_I think self-realization has three major aspects. The first stage is acceptance, the

39、 second stage is discovery and the last stage is perseverance.Acceptance is the first stage. We should be reminded that we are all born unique, so we all have our own strengths and weaknesses. _18_ Being objective and yet tolerant is the key to acceptance.Once weve accepted ourselves, we can discove

40、r what we are interested in and what we want to be. Many people tend to go along with social expectations. _19_ So before we start working towards a purpose, we should ask ourselves “Is this what we truly desire?” and “Is this going to change the situation were in?”The last stage is perseverance. _2

41、0_ Those who can self-realize are people who focus on the things they want to change.Through the three stages, we could gain recognition of ourselves. And by this point, whatever our lives were like, we would be able to stand tall, confident of ourselves.AIts nothing to a man of perseverance.BBut in

42、deed we should live for ourselves.COnly by acceptance of the past can we change it.DThis is especially common among college students.EIt is the process of knowing ourselves and finding a purpose.FExploring our potential isnt going to be done in a short time.GOnly when we understand these can we purs

But there is one interesting _22_ concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard-of in the West, and _23_ ignored by the youth of the Eastthe ancient custom o

44、f “tonic (滋补) food”.Tonic food is food consumed to improve ones well-being or _24_ sickness. _25_, it was once the _26_ for new mother to eat a sesame-oil(麻油) hotpot every day for the first month after giving _27_. It was believed that this dish would _28_ the muscles, reduce pain, improve circulati

One should be _31_ not to eat too much “hot” or“cold”food. _32_, how much “hot” or “cold” food one should eat _33_ the time

Some Chinese herbal medicines can often be found on many a restaurant _37_. Whether you need to _38_ yourself to
