10、n, Adrian Charter. Adrian comes to the gym to train, just like me. The difference is, Im 31 years old, and Adrian is 72!I watched Adrian as he was training, early on a Sunday morning, and he was hitting the punching bag harder and quicker than most men in their twenties would. Adrian was a former bo

11、xer whose last professional fight was in 1972. Even though he has stopped competing as a boxer, his discipline(纪律) still makes him stick to a training rule.It simply amazed me as to how a 72-year-old man could train so hard. Believe me, boxing is one of the most difficult sports on the earth, needin

12、g much patience,skill, and effort.What surprised me even more was that a few days earlier he did some running. He ran 9 kilometers. He does this on a regular basis. For me, I can run 5 kilometers at most.When I questioned him about how he kept such discipline, he calmly replied, “It is all in my min

13、d.”I thought about it for a moment. If discipline can push a 72-year-old man to train so hard and enjoy it, could I imagine how discipline could serve every single human being on the earth? Right at this point, as you read this story, please pause and ask yourself, “What is my level of discipline?”A

14、drians example told me that the power of discipline will get us to the finishing line!

17、zing boxer阅读理解。Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some formsfootball, basketball, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering.Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult

18、 mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks in high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.Mountaineeri

19、ng is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as others, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. T

20、hose who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers,

21、 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 have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physi

22、cal qualities.A mountain climber continues to improve in skills year by year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty. But it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they perhaps climb with more

23、 skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.25What sports are popular among people in winter in the passage?A. Soccer and golf. B. Skiing and skating.C. Cycling and hockey. D. Mountaineering.26The underlined word “passion” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by

24、_ _.A. strong emotion B. good wayC. better feeling D. enough affection27Mountaineering is a sport, not a game because_.A. it has man-made rulesB. it is too dangerous for climbersC. it is free for climbers to use their own methodsD. it cant bring people joy or leisure28We know from the passage that _

25、.A. mountaineering has no appeal for peopleB. physical quality is more important than mental one for climbersC. a mountain climber passes his best by the age of thirtyD. it is possible for an old man of fifty or sixty to climb the Alps29What is the best title for the passage?A. Sports in winter B. T

29、cries, Anton and his friend Tyler, without hesitation, swam out to her, and brought her safely to shore.In an age in which the word hero is broadcast with abandon and seemingly applied to anyone who make it through the day, I realized the real thing in my son. The teens are stubborn and self-centred

30、, but that didnt mean they have no desire to do good.Still shocked by my sons daring, I drove him home. Along the way, I tried to dig out some more information from him, but he had precious little to say. The only words he said were, “Whats for supper?”I spent some time alone that evening, thinking

31、about the tragedy that might have been. The next morning, when Anton got up, I half expected him to tell me the story. But all he did was toast some bread, pull himself together, and head for the door to start a new day. Watching from the window, I was reminded that still water often runs deep.30Why

32、 did the mother allow her son to swim there?A. He was an excellent swimmer.B. The water of the river is shallow.C. He was old enough to swim.D.

It was seen more as a medium to inform the buyers rather than persuade them to buy.

56、 The present day marketers see advertisement as a medium to damage the image of their competitors and their products. This indeed, is an undesirable and an immoral practice. Instead of speaking about their own products, these marketers speak about the drawbacks (often without any basics) of the comp

57、eting products.People watching TV advertisements would notice that there has always been an advertisement war between the marketers of different consumer goods. A few such cases are given below.1. Parachute Coconut Oil vs. V.V.D. GoldSome time back, the producer of V.V.D Gold Coconut Oil claimed in

58、their TV advertisement that only their products was superior and the one sold in blue colour bottles (the reference was to Parachute coconut oil) was suitable only for un-natural hair.2.

61、stantly advertised on TV. Their advertisement gave the idea that the cricketers preferred only Pepsi and as a matter of fact there was nothing official about it.4. Horlicks vs. ComplanSometime back, the TV advertisement of Complan, a health drink directly attacked Horlicks, which has been in the mar

62、ket for several decades. The claim of Complan was that their brand (which according to them was Brand C) has a higher percentage of ingredients (材料) compared to Brand H (reference was nothing but to Horlicks).The above examples clearly show how the technique of advertisement is misused by some marke

63、ters to ruin the image of their competitors. This, certainly, is not a healthy trend.Any marketer should only speak about his products and not about his competitors products. The awareness of consumers has certainly increased over the years and they are no longer easily taken in. There are many cons

64、umer products like salt, oil shaving blades etc. But one thing for sure is that offering the same product in a different container will not make the product different.Mass media like Radio, Television and newspaper should not allow advertisements that tell lies.
