14、weetest revenge.” I saw this wonderful old saying again in a book recently. It got me thinking about all the times that I have been 31 to forgive others in my life and all the joy that it has brought me. One 32 stands out particularly well.I was a young boy at a summer camp. I was having a great tim

15、e and 33_ everything about it except for another young boy of my age. To say we didnt 34 would be a statement that made the situation less serious than it really was. We spent most of the week irritating, insulting (侮辱), and picking on each other. 35 finally came to a fight on the next to last day o

16、f camp. We got into a fist fight which I lost. 36 older boys broke it up before I was hurt too much. I spent the rest of the day alone, refusing to speak and lost in my own 37 . The next day my spirits were 38 when Mom brought the boys in our cabin some of her delicious homemade 39 . I was enjoying

17、a few slices of it when I saw the other boy sitting by himself at the bottom of the steps outside. He seemed very 40 right then. I am not sure what moved me to do so, but I took my pizza down and 41 it with him. It made all the anger and pain inside me 42 . We became friends after that. I never got

18、into another fist fight either. I had found out that sharing and forgiving were much more fun and a lot less painful. Forgiveness is 43 the sweetest revenge. It can turn an enemy into a friend. It can 44 a heart from the chains of anger, hatred, and pain. It can open a soul to the sweetness of love

19、and joy once again. May your life always be 45 of sweet forgiveness.31. A. disappointedB. satisfiedC. unwillingD. able32. A. memoryB. lesson C. incidentD. week33.

22、ily moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name. “J.C.”, he replied.She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part-time so as to pay for his edu

23、cation. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped

24、 in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would

25、 come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didnt go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.” Ks5uHaving returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from t

26、he president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.Owens Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcy

27、cles, and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”46. Owens got his other n

28、ame “Jesse” when _.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “J.C.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet47. In the Big Ten meet, Owens _.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in setting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD.

29、had to give up some events48. We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because _.A. he was not of the right raceB. he didnt talk to the US presidentC. he didnt shake hands with HitlerD. he was the son of a poor farmer49. When Owens says “They have kept me ali

30、ve over the years,” he means that the medals _.A. have been changed for money to help him live onB. have made him famous in the USC. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs50. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Jesse Ow

31、ens, a Great American AthleteB. Golden Moment a Life-time StruggleC. Making a Living as a SportsmanD. How to Be a Successful Athlete? BI told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortu

32、nately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to grumble as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will

33、mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationery exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are

34、 there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote, “Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial a

35、nd suffering can vision be cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”One of the key factors of success in life is our attitude towards adversity (逆境). From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents, afflictions and difficulties. Some are of our making but many confront us throug

36、h no fault of our own. While we cannot choose the adversity we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aces in the Battle of Britain with

37、22 aerial victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Dont listen to anyone who tells you that you cant do this or that. Thats nonsense. Make up your mind, and youll never use crutches (拐杖) or a stick, and then have a go at evening. Go to school, and join in

38、 all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become depr

39、essed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.51. The underlined word “grumble” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. trembleB. complainC. sp

40、eed upD. slow down52. Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?A. Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.B. People are wise to pay to go to the gym.C. Those who want to achieve success cant expect to live an easy life. D. Peoples attitude towards adv

41、ersity is the only factor that determines whether they will succeed.53. By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “_”.A. Failure is the mother of success.B. A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.C. If you venture nothing, you will have nothing.D. Nothing is difficult to the

42、 man who will try.54. Following this passage, the author will further talk about _.A. how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he facedB. what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you faceC. what great people have in commonD. why it is important t

43、o keep optimistic in face of adversity55. Which of the following can best function as the title of the passage?A. Face adversity with a smileB. Different attitudes towards adversityC. Nothing is impossibleD. Life is full of adversityCWhat would you think if someone suggested knocking down St Pauls C

44、athedral to widen the road? Or pulling down Big Ben to make way for a car park? It would be ridiculous, right? But when it comes to devastation (毁灭) of the natural world, we arent so easily shocked. But we should beor well be in a lot of trouble.Nature is shrinking by the day. Ancient forests are de

45、stroyed. Wetlands are becoming dry. Woodland is disappearing, and all in the name of progress. This is bad in itself, but its devastating for biodiversity.Biodiversity refers to the variety of plants, animals and other living things that are all interconnected. The ecological services provided by bi

46、odiversity are vital to everyday life. The air we breathe is a product of photosynthesis (光合作用) by green plants. Insects, worms and bacteria break down waste and make soils rich. And tiny organisms clean the water in rivers and sea. In fact, all life on the earth exists thanks to the benefits of bio

47、diversity. More than 90 percent of the calories consumed by people worldwide are produced from 80 plant species. And 30 percent of medicines are developed from plants and animals. Maintaining a wide diversity of species in each ecosystem is necessary to preserve all living things.The loss of biodive

48、rsity could be devastating. “It is wrong to think that biodiversity can be reduced indefinitely without threatening humans,” said Harvard University biologist Edward O. Wilson, known as the “father of biodiversity”. He warned, “We are about to reach a critical point beyond which biodiversity loss wi

49、ll become irreversible (不可挽回的).”But what can we do? The present problem is that the concept of biodiversity is so vague (含糊的). People might care about giant pandas, but it is much harder to excite them about the fate of tiny sea creatures which are being boiled to death in the cooling systems of pow

50、er stations along coastlines. The Guardian newspaper is trying to help. It has launched the Biodiversity 100 campaign to try to convince governments around the world to take action to deal with the widespread concerns about biodiversity. This includes persuading the UK government to create a series

51、of marine reserves to reserve the decrease in the sea-life caused by industrial fishing, stopping fishing sharks by the Japanese fishermen and banning the killing of dingoes (wild dogs) in Australia, among many other things.There is a lot to do. And wed better act quickly if we dont want to end up w

52、ith a planet that cant sustain life!56. The writer thinks it _ to pull down Big Ben to make way for a car park.A. unreasonableB. necessaryC. difficultD. reasonable57. The underlined sentence “Nature is shrinking by the day.” means that _. A. nature is badly polluted by humans Ks5u B. species are bec

53、oming fewer and fewer day by day C. rainforests are being cut down every day D. nature is full of mysteries58. Edward O. Wilson thinks that _. A. it doesnt matter to reduce biodiversity B. people have done enough to preserve biodiversity C. the situation of biodiversity is very serious D. biodiversi

54、ty loss has become irreversible59. When it comes to biodiversity, the present problem is that _. A. people might not clearly know what is biodiversity and what should be protected B. people are not aware that giant pandas are endangered C. people dont realize that biodiversity is vital to everyday l

55、ife D. people hunt sea creatures for food60. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. The UK government.B. The concept of biodiversity. C. The action to deal with the problem.D. The Guardian newspaper. DWe are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the

56、 school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changedno examination is perfect but to

57、have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depen

58、d on the efficiency, the values and the purpose of each teacher.Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them a form of favouritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show

59、 certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defence of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child form a poor family wou

60、ld be a prisoner of his or her schools reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school.The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no sp

61、ecial, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer. Ks5u61. What is

62、 the similarity between supporters and opponents? A. They both like exams.B. They both dislike exams. B. They value standards.D. They value equality.62. The word “favouritism” in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that _.A. bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobsB.

63、children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobsC. poor children with certificates are favoured in job markets D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success63. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author?A. Schools for bright children would los

64、e their reputation.B. There would be more opportunities and excellence.C. Children from poor families would be able to change their schools.D. Childrens job opportunity would be affected by their schools reputation.64. The opponents of the examination system will agree that _.A. jobs should not be a
