24、ng too fast down the big hill on Springfield Avenue. I knew at once that the world was mine to explore.A couple of years later, when I was 11, my grandmother visited from England, bringing me a bike. It was a shiny dark green, with three gears (齿轮) and hand brakes. As the owner of the first English

I rode it past big stone houses with their huge yards and trees. I rode past brick row houses. I rode alone and with groups of friends.That beloved bik

26、e went with me to college, carrying me to the library and to classes. Beyond transport, it was often a prop (道具): pushing it along as I walked the college paths made me feel less self-conscious. Somehow, conversation flowed more easily on either side of a bike.After college, I lived abroad for a tim

27、e. Returning from London, I discovered to my horror that my parents had sold my bike. They didnt even know who had bought it.For years after that, I didnt have a bicycle that was specifically mine. Teaching in a New England prep school, I simply rode whatever bikes its graduates had left behind. I r

28、ode around the little town on bikes which slipped in and out of gear, with brakes that often failed.I did not take any of those bikes with me when I moved south to the coastal town where I now live. But after a while I missed riding. Finally, on a fall day, I bought a bicycle. Called a comfort bike,

29、 it has wider tires than my old bike and seven gears. But it is green a brighter green bike.Still, I was a bit apprehensive. I was out of practice and a lot older. I brought the bike home and put on my helmet Id never worn a helmet before. Then I got on the bike. After a tentative, slightly shaky st

30、art, I fell exactly as I was on that long-ago day on Springfield Avenue: free. Soon I was riding along. It seemed that everyone I passed smiled and waved or call out, great day for a bike ride! And I knew they all remembered their first bike and how it had set them free. I wanted to call back to the

34、nefits of riding bikes with others.DTo tell us about how she grew up through her riding experiences.Thanks to its harsh environment, Antarctica remained largely untouched by humans for many millennia, allowing a thriving ecosystem to evolve. However, since the 1990s, the last true wilderness on the

35、planet is becoming an increasingly popular destination for adventure-seeking tourists. Now, a new study declares that the visitors may be leaving behind harmful bacteria which could devastate the areas native bird population.Humans can infect animals with illnesses such as the flu. Researchers, howe

36、ver, believed that the Antarctic animals were immune to the danger due to the continents extreme weather. However, microbiologist Marta Cerda-Cuellar was not convinced.She and some colleagues decided to examine waste samples from Antarctic birds for evidence of human bacteria. To ensure the waste wa

37、s not polluted, the scientists had to collect it from the birds themselves.The results of their study revealed the presence of several types of human bacteria in the bird waste. This included a common strain (品种) of bacteria that causes food poisoning in humans. The researchers say the bacteria stra

38、ins were resistant to commonly-used human antibiotics, indicating they were brought in by the visitors, rather than migratory birds (候鸟).“These strains, which are a common cause for infections in humans and livestock, do not usually cause death outbreaks in wild animals, says Gonzalez-Solis. However

39、, the emerging or invasive pathogens (病原体) that arrive to highly sensitive populations could have severe consequences and cause the local collapse and extinction of some populations. The researcher also fears the presence of these bugs could foreshadow the arrival of other, more deadly, pathogens as

40、 the number of tourists people increases.Experts believe the only way to prevent the mass destruction of the birds is to impose stricter regulations or, at least, put the ones already in place into effect. For example, while the Antarctica Treaty requires visitors to carry their waste back home to s

41、afeguard the pristine environment, the regulation is rarely enforced. Nowadays, some officials are taking steps to save the vulnerable birds before its too late.45What problem is Antarctica facing according to Paragraph 1&2?AThe increasing number of tourists.BThe worsening wilderness.CThe replaced n

42、ative bird population.DThe spread of infectious illnesses.46What docs the underlined word devastate mean?ADestroy.BIncrease.CProtect.DBenefit.47Why did the scientists need to catch some Antarctic animals?ATo treat their illness.BTo get their waste.CTo raise them as pets.DTo study their lifestyles.48

44、tarctica?AIndifferent.BDoubtful.CAmbiguous.DOptimistic.50In what section in a newspaper can you find the passage?AEntertainment.BTravel.CNature.DEducation.The playing field is never even or equal. Your skills and attitude play a major role in the outcome. Knowing what you can do to have an advantage

45、 can make the difference between success and failure.My kids tell me its unfair to play with the big children. I tell them thats right. Unfairness is a good thing. There is more to be gained by the effort when things seem unfair. It is true that many things in the world are unfair. But unfair things

46、 usually can be a boon to you. For example, the early bird catches the worm. It is unfair that the bird that sleeps in misses out on breakfast but it is nice to know that if it gets up early it is sure to get the worm.I always try to explain to my kids that complaining about how unfair something is will get them nowhere. Instead, make the most out of it and get on the other side of it. Once you do that you are in the advantage. Abov
