A
James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family 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 education. 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 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 e 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 didn't go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”
Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from the 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, motorcycles, 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.”
26. Owens got his other name “Jesse” when __________. A. he went to Ohio State University B. his teacher made fun of him C. his teacher took “J.C.” for “Jesse” D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet

27. In the Big Ten meet, Owens __________. A. hurt himself in the back
B. succeeded in setting many records C. tried every sports event but failed D. had to give up some events
28. 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 race B. he was the son of a poor farmer C. he didn't shake hands with Hitler
D. he didn't talk to the US president on the phone
29. When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means that the medals __________.
A. have been changed for money to help him live on B. have made him famous in the US
C. have encouraged him to overe difficulties in life D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs 30. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Jesse Owens, a Great American Athlete B. Golden Moment-- a Life-time Struggle C. Making a Living as a Sportsman D. How to Be a Successful Athlete?

At one time, puters were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.
It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of Internet-connected puters, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. “I feel in my
第 5 页 共 21 页
bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down.” says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization.
Perhaps best sign of how puter and Internet use pushes up demand for paper es from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet panies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a puter. Earlier this week, Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just an on-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a puter. As the pany sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers.
Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. “I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling,” said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity. The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste.
31. Which of the following statement is NOT true?
A. puters effectively cut down the use of paper. B. Documents can be stored in puters electronically. C. A large number of e-mails need to be printed in reality. D. Printers are in a greater demand owing to the Internet.
32.The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to __________. A.the rapid development of small businesses B.the opening up of new markets C.the printing of high quality copies D.the increased use of the Internet
第 6 页 共 21 页
33.Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because __________.
A.people are concerned about the environment B.printers in many offices are working overtime C.small panies need more hard copies D.they see a growing market for printers
34.Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is __________.
A.to encourage printing more quality documents B.to develop new printers using recycled paper C.to find new materials for making paper D.to plant more fast growing trees 35.What would be the best title for the text? A.puters and Printers
B.E-mail and the Business World
C.Internet Revolution and Environment
D.Modern Technology and New Markets
C
Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own. We take delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societies beyond our everyday lives.
This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists have made to find out whether life of some kind exists on Mars, and the popularity of fantasy(幻想)literature or movies like The Lord of the Rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other, to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already exist all around us?
Human beings, as biologists have suggested, possess an inborn desire to connect with and understand other life forms. However, people, especially in big
第 7 页 共 21 页
cities, often lead rather isolated lives. In a study of British schoolchildren, it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from television shows and video games than mon wildlife. Without modem technology, a small pond could be an amazing world filled with strange and beautiful plants, insects, birds, and animals. When we lack meaningful interaction with the world around us, and sometimes even with our families and friends, we seek to understand and municate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a puter screen.
The world of make-believe is not necessarily bad, but when the world of fantasy bees the only outlet for our sense of wonder, then we are really missing something. We are missing a connection with the living world. Other wonderful worlds exist all around us. But even more interesting is that if we look closely enough, we can see that these worlds, in a broad sense, are really part of our own.
36. What man is curious about is mainly __________.
A. the unknown world C. the daily trifles
B. the unusual events D. the isolated lives
37.The popularity of The Lord of the Rings proves . A.the close connection between man and the fantasy world B.the wonderful achievements of fantasy literature C.the fine taste of moviegoers around the world D.the general existence of the sense of curiosity
38.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A.People are far less familiar with the world of fantasy. B.The world around us could serve as a source of wonder. C.The world of fantasy can be mirrored by a small and lively pond. D.Modern technology prevents us from developing our sense of wonder. 39.If our sense of wonder relies totally on the world of make-believe, we will _________.
A.fail to appreciate the joy in our lives
第 8 页 共 21 页
B.be confused by the world of make-believe C.miss the chance to recognize the fantasy world D.be trapped by other worlds existing all around us 40. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To show us the hidden beauty in our world. B. To warn us not to get lost in the fantasy world. C. To argue against the misuse of the sense of wonder. D. To discuss the influence of the world of make-believe.
D
A MENTORING program (导师制) is giving life changing opportunities to Banbury youth.
Young Inspirations was founded two years ago to provide mentoring sessions for students and unemployed young adults aged 11 to 21.
Alex Goldberg, the program's founder, said: \"We set up Young Inspirations because we wanted to give young people experiences which will potentially be life changing and broaden their outlook.”
\"We try to create work experience opportunities that will really make a difference to our youth. For example, we've secured internships (实习) with world-famous firms such as Honda.”
\"At a time of funding cutbacks where schools are finding it more and more difficult to offer this kind of mentoring, it is extremely important that these opportunities are available both to help youth with their school work and grades and to give them opportunities which may help shape their futures.\" Kieran Hepburn, 14, is one of a group of Banbury youth who has benefited from the program so far. In October the Banbury School pupil was acpanied by Young Inspirations staff to Paris where he was an observer at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO) International Youth Forum (论坛).
The event was held for young people from around the world, to seek their views on how the future of youth and education should look. Kieran joined several hundred
第 9 页 共 21 页
observers mostly in their 20s and was the only UK school pupil to attend the event. Kieran thinks the trip was a life changing experience. \"Before we left I didn't quite know what to make of it but when we got there we didn't stop, it was amazing,\" he said, \" We went to three or four hours of debates each day and then did something cultural each afternoon.\"
The main theme of the forum was how youth can drive change in political and public life. It dealt with issues such as drug abuse, violence and unemployment.
Kieran said: \"It has really helped me to improve my confidence and social skills as well as my school grades and I was voted most improved pupil at school in August.\"
The Young Inspirations mentoring sessions take place each Friday in Banbury. For details visit younginspirations..
41. The Young Inspirations mentoring program aims to _____.
A. train staff for world-famous firms B. offer job opportunities to young adults C. provide youth with unique experiences D. equip the unemployed with different skills
42. According to Alex Goldberg, it is difficult for schools to offer the mentoring due to _____.
A. the lack of support from firms B. the cultural differences C. the effect of unemployment
D. the shortage of money
43. According to the passage, the forum focused on how youth can ____.
A. build up their confidence at school B. find work experience opportunities C. improve their social skills for the future D. play an active role in the change of society 44. We can learn from the passage that _____.

However we still have a long way to go to achieve the China Dream. Chinese people used to think that economic growth would solve all the problems, but now we realize that the renewal of our nation will require much more than just money. 【写作内容】

Statistics reveal that about 40% to 60% of the citizens in our country suffer from
tooth decay while more children are stricken by such a disease with a ratio of 70%. Many factors are responsible for this disease, but food and dietary habits may be the most important factors. Therefore, we are supposed to balance our food, eating more vegetables rich in fibers, fruit, milk and so on, instead of sugar. Next, brush teeth both in the morning and after meals, especially before going to bed. In addition, we should take regular medical tooth check so that we can cure the disease in time once we are found carrying bad teeth in our mouth.

The passage tells us what the China Dream includes and in order to achieve it, the government should be service-oriented and find out what people want and need, which requires constant efforts.
Dreams play quite an important role in our life, providing us with guidance and motivating us to overe all kinds of difficulty. A dream is to a person what the sun is to the world. We students may be faced with many challenges, such as endless homework, failures in exams and pressure from parents. While these drown us in sadness, dreams do cheer us up. Only when one has a dream and pursue it regardless of any obstacle can one achieve success in the end.
In reality, I am deeply impressed by the story of Jia Zuosheng, who pursued his dream with great determination. Although he never finished high school, his college ambition never stopped. He became a security guard at Qinghua University. However, by taking advantage of the academic resources at Qinghua, he finally made his way to Shandong Normal University last year. Jia's success tells us if we find a dream, we have to fight for it and never give it up.
As for me, to achieve the China Dream, firstly I have to study hard and reach the goal of entering a renowned university. Then I can learn some professional knowledge, find a good job and lead a good life, which is part of the China Dream. From my perspective, every bit of effort counts in the process of realizing the China Dream.

As we all know, life is full of dreams and having a good dream is of great importance in our daily life. Without a good dream, people can’t make progress; without a good dream, countries can’t develop; without a good dream, the world can’t bee so beautiful! And I hold the strong belief that everyone, whether he is old or young, poor or rich, junior or senior, does have a good dream! After all, dreaming is

certainly a positive part of our life, and wishing for good things, however, costs nothing!
What’s more, it is important to fly our dreams, especially for those who are Senior 3 students. It is high time for them to fly their dreams. If they can’t let their dreams fly, the dream would just die!
Therefore, it is no wonder that so many people have a dream since their childhood. With a nice dream, China succeeded to host the 29th Olympic Games in 2008; with a nice dream, Hong Kong returned to the motherland peacefully in 1997; with a nice dream, Yuan Longping rids the world of hunger; with a nice dream, Michael Jordon bees the most popular basketball star; with a nice dream I can stand on this stage to pete in the final English speech contest. And with an aim of achieving success, I must do the best!
So my good friends, if you want to realize your dream, please do not be afraid in face of difficulties or give up in face of failure nor lose your dream in face of pains. You must keep going forward bravely! Just fly your dream highly above the sky! 【写作内容】

motivation to success. To realize a dream, one should learn to defeat difficulties through constant struggles as well as persistence.
It is a dream that enables one to do better in life. Like most classmates, there was a time when I dreamed of being an excellent student in English after entering junior middle school, though my English was very poor then. To catch up with my classmates, I made up my mind to learn English well and made pen-friends with some foreign students so as to practise my spoken English and improve my written English. Although some of my classmates often went to the movies in the evening, seldom did I take part in such activities. Instead, I set aside to concentrate on my English and won the Final English Speech Contest around the city this term, realizing my dream.
At present, I also have another dream. As a Senior 3 student, I hope that I can be admitted to a key university after graduation from middle school. Of course, whether my dream will e true depends largely on my personal efforts. Although life is full of ups and downs, I choose to go forward bravely. I strongly believe that where there is a dream, there is hope and there is a way.
