Soon Connors muscles began to
9、 lose strength. At three he showed signs of upper-body weakness, by five he couldnt hold his head upright, and by the first grade, he would need a wheelchair. As the day passed, he tired and couldnt hold a pencil to write. Within two years, he would be too tired to feed himself dinner. Everyone was
10、puzzled. Physically, his body was twisted, but he was mentally perfect. We ran tests after tests, but no definite answer.Finally, in 2004, we consulted Dr. Shawn, a geneticist, who said that Connors symptoms had signs of dystonia (肌张力障碍)，a very rare genetic disorder, and a possible cure was L-dopa.
11、Though there waspossible side effects of the treatment, when Connors condition worsened, I had littlechoice.Dr. Jacobs, a neurologist (神经学家), gave Connor the first dose (次剂量的药) on June 21, 2007, when he was nine years old. The next morning, when I went to wake him up, I found him kneeling on his bed
12、 - he hadnt done that since he was learning to walk. He shouted, “Look at me, Mom!” Connor was excited.Over the next few days,Connor kept getting stronger. He held his upper body much straighter after the first week. A few weeks later, he“furniture-walked,”supporting himself on chairs and couches. H
13、e later walked holding both of my hands, then just one hand. And on August 13, he walked across my mothers living room by himself.I could now believe the unbelievable: The medicine was working. The child who had been too weak to feed himself dinner was walking. Since then, every year on June 21, we
14、celebrate Dopa Day with a cake and presents, for its Connors second“birthday,” and it marks the best day of my life.( ) 16. Whats wrong with Connor?A. The doctor found he couldnt walk.B. Something was wrong when he was born. C. Neither his mind nor his body was normal.D. His mind was fine but his bo
15、dy was abnormal. ( ) 17. Which of the following statements is true?A.The L-dopa dose proved effective.B. The L-dopa treatment was proved safe. C. There were other cures for Connors illness. D. Nobody knew what kind of disease Connor had had ( ) 18. Whats special about the day of June 21? A. It was C
16、onnors birthday.B. It was the day when Connor started walking.C. It was the day when Connor recovered completely.D. It was the day when Connor got his first treatment of L-dopa.BMost young people enjoy some form of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or
17、skiing. It may be a game of some kind, football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering.Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains
18、? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their relaxation.Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of a dif
19、ferent kind which it would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.Ifwe compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports, we might think that one big diffe
20、rence is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches”between “teams”ofclimbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows that he may ha
21、ve to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental andphysical qualities.A mountain climber continues to improve m skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international
22、tennis champions are in their early twenty. But it is not unusual for man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.( ) 19.The mai
23、n difference between a sport and a game lies in_.A. activityB. uniformC. rulesD. skills( ) 20.Mountaineering can be called a team sport because_.A. mountaineers depend on each other while climbingB. teams compete against each other C. it is an Olympic eventD. There are five climbers on each team ( )
24、 21. Mountaineers compete against_.A. each other B. nature C. other teams D. international standards ( ) 22. Which of the following might be the best title?A.How to Climb High Mountains B. Mountain Climbers C.Challenging Sports Activities D. MountaineeringCLanguage is a way to communicate with each
25、other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants(移民) are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they dont have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing
26、their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in ord
27、er to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesnt help very much in ge
28、tting a good job. My aunt taught Korean to her children not to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity because they look different from others,
29、and also, if they visit their parentscountry, they will probably feel different from other people there too. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling (散步) around the street because they wore differ
30、ent clothes and walked differently.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their background by teaching them the parents language. This is very important, not
31、only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation to establish their identity.( ) 23.According to the text, what is the problem ofthe first generation immigrants?A.They have lost their identity.B.Their children are losing their identity C.Their children speak strange lang
32、uages.D. They cannot speak their native language. ( ) 24.It can be inferred from the text that_.A. most of the immigrants cant understand English B.most of the immigrants are not successful in careersC. to some degree, the parents are to blame for their kidsloss of identityD. the second generation i
33、mmigrants cant understand their parentslanguage( ) 25. My aunt taught her children Korean_A.so that they knew they were KoreanB. so that they would be more successful in the US C. because she wanted them to respect herD. because she didnt want them to speak English ( ) 26. According to the text,the
34、native language is important and valuable to immigrants because_.A.it gives them self-confidence and better chanceB. it makes the second generation love their motherlandC. it helps the second generation to understand their parents D. it unites the family and makes them aware of their identityDIf you
35、 could travel in time, where would you go? Perhaps you would watch an original performance of a Shakespeares play in Elizabethan England? What about hanging out with Laozi in the Spring and Autumn Period? Or maybe youd voyage far ahead of the present day to see what the future holds.The possibility
36、of time travel is indeed appealing. Stories exploring the subject have been around for hundreds of years. Perhaps the best known example is science fiction novel. The Time Machine, whichwas of by H.G. Wells and published in 1895 for the first time. It was adapted into at least two feature films of t
37、he same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. It is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term “time machine”, coined by Wells, is
38、now universally used to refer to a vehicle transporting people into the far future.But could time travel actually be possible? Some scientists say yes, in theory. They propose using cracks in time and space called“wormholes”, which could be used as shortcuts to other periods. Einsteins theory of rel
39、ativity allows time travel in extreme circumstances. And British physicist Stephen Hawking says you could travel into the future with a really fest spaceship going at nearly the speed of light. Thoughbuilding such a spaceship would of course be no simple task.Even if you could travel into the past,
40、there is something called the “grandfather paradox” . It asks what would happen if a time traveler were to go back in time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason, and therefore prevent himself from being born. If the time traveler wasnt born, how would he travel back in time.And would y
41、ou really like to visit the future? In H.G. Wells book, the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs. He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(触角).If thats whats in store,
42、maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.( ) 27. The novel The Time Machine mentioned in Paragraph 2 aims to show _.A. the contribution ofH.G.WellsB. the storys different featuresC. the long history of time travelD. peoples interest in time machine( ) 28.Einsteins and Hawkings th
43、eories _. A. suggest the possibility to invent the time machineB. push the invention of the first spaceshipC. have proved wrong by some time travelersD. have similarities in many way( ) 29.In Paragraph 4, “grandfather paradox” probably refers to the idea that _.A.the traveler is prevented from meeti
44、ng his grandfatherB.the grandfathers death makes the travelers birth impossibleC.the traveler goes back in time to seek for his grandfatherD.the reunion of the traveler and his grandfather brings happiness( ) 30.According to the passage, what is probably the authors attitude towards time travel?A. S
45、keptical.B. Unclear.C. Supportive.D. Unconcerned.III.阅读填空The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where weve never been before.But just as in face-to-face communicationthere are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.31. _Imagine how youd f
46、eel if you were in the other persons shoes.For anything youre about to send:ask yourself,“Would I say this to the persons face?If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 32. _.If someone in the chat room is rude to you,your instinct(本能)is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so.33. _. If
47、 it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it.Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.34. _.Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether its a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it is a small mistake you may not need to say anything.Even if you feel s
