In summer Lake Michigan is warm and blue. In winter it is cold and grey. On a cold January day, Jimmy was playing with his father on a Chicago beach, skiing with a sled (雪橇). He pushed the sled down a small hill and the sled went onto the ice of Lake Michigan. He ran after the sled and onto the ice, but suddenly the ice broke, and Jimmy fell into the cold water! Jimmy's father jumped into the water, but he couldn't find Jimmy. Men from the Chicago Fire Department arrived. Twenty minutes later they found Jimmy and pulled him out of the water, but he was not breathing. The paramedics (护理人员) worked on Jimmy for one hour. Luckily enough, he began to breathe, and his heart began to beat again. The paramedics then rushed Jimmy to the hospital. Doctors put Jimmy on a cold bed and gave him some medicine. In time, Jimmy's body gradually became warm. After eight days in the hospital, Jimmy woke up, but he couldn't walk or talk. He stayed in the hospital for six weeks. Every day he got better. Then he was moved to another hospital where he stayed for seven weeks. Eventually he was able to walk, talk, and play again! Jimmy was in the water for 20 minutes, but he is still alive. How is it possible? This is because the water was ice cold. Usually the brain needs a lot of oxygen (氧 气), but when it's very cold, the brain works slowly and does not need as much oxygen. Jimmy's father has another reason. He says, "Jimmy is a good boy and he knows I love him very much. He will never let me down." 41. Jimmy fell into the cold water because ______ A. he wanted to skate on Lake Michigan. B. he skied with his sled on Lake Michigan C. he wanted to get his sled back from the ice D. he didn't notice the ice had broken 42. Who pulled Jimmy out of the water? A. The firemen. B. The paramedics. C. His father. D. The doctors. 43. The doctors put Jimmy on a cold bed probably because they wanted to _______. A. cool down his brain B. wake him up quickly C. give him some medicine D. warm his body up slowly 44. Jimmy is still alive mainly due to ________. A. his immediate rescue B. the ice cold water of the lake C. his timely treatment D. his father's confidence B Life saving At-Home Checkup More importance is attached to physical fitness nowadays. However, staying fit can be expensive when going to professional agencies for medical checkups. Here we show you three ways to do medical checkup at home, try them for a rough idea about your health condition. 1. Balance On One Leg Hold for up to 60 seconds. If you fall down early, you may be at higher risk for brain decline. In a Japanese study, 30 percent of older adults who could balance for only 20 seconds or fewer had microbleeds in the brain, an early sign of risk for stroke or dementia(痴呆). These microbleeds can affect balance, memory, and decision making. 2. Touch Your ToesSit with your back straight, then lean forward and try to touch your toes. Not even close? You might be at risk for heart problems. By using this test, University of North Texas researchers found that some old inflexible folks have to have the heart work harder to provide enough blood, raising the risk of heart attack or stroke. 3. Sitting To Standing Time how long it takes to lift and lower yourself from a chair ten times as fast as you can. Senior adults who did ten repetitions in 21 seconds or fewer were less likely to die over the next 13 years than those who took longer. The test requires muscle strength, balance, and heart fitness; being slow could mean underlying disease before symptoms arise. The above are home tests everyone could do to keep you fit and they don’t require much time or money. Learn what possible dangers are hiding inside you and how to deal with them. 45. What may go wrong if you balance on one leg for only 20 seconds or fewer? A. Heart. B. Brain. C. Leg. D. Muscle. 46. A person’s muscle strength can be tested by ____. A. sitting with the back straight B. balancing on one leg C. touching the toes D. sitting to standing 47. The three ways to do medical checkup mentioned in the passage are ____. A. money-saving B. long-lasting C. energy-demanding D. resources-wasting C Are you thinking about changing your job? Your job is among the most important things in your life, and changing it is one of the most stressful decisions you will ever make. Be Passionate (充满热情的) The reason why you would even consider a job change in the first place is probably because you feel passionate about something. There is no sense in making a change if you are not going to be any happier than you already are. You may be earning a five-figure salary, but if it is not making you happy, then it might be a good time to change your job. Do Your Research Make sure that before you make the final decision you do some thorough ( 彻 底 的 ) research on available opportunities. You need to analyze what skills you have and what skills you may need to learn for your new job. You should be confident about salary prospects ( 前 景 ) and other related information. You may have lots of expectations about the job you want, but doing the necessary research will help you look beyond this rosy picture. Job Exploration Changing your job can be overwhelming. Ask yourself questions such as: ▲ Why am I exploring this job? ▲ Shall I need additional training or education? ▲ What are the opportunities and risks of pursuing (追求) this job? These questions will help give you some very necessary answers. You can’t really begin on the path to a job change until you know why you want to change and how you will do about it. 48. According to the author, a job change must ______. A. bring you a higher income B. make you feel happier C. lead to a change in position D. be objected by a boss 49. Before making a job change, you need to research all of the following EXCEPT ______. A. the advantages you have B. the skills you need to learn C. the ideas of friends and family D. salary expectations and other related information50 In this passage the author seems to suggest that ______. A. changing jobs is reasonable now that you are not satisfied with what you are doing B. can be done quickly when you are young C. changing jobs means more opportunities than challenges and risks D. changing jobs can be difficult to decide, and you shouldn’t start the process quickly 第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项， 并填在答题纸相应位置。 D 　 Do you know what makes people successful? To find out the answers, an American reporter recently visited some of the most successful people around the world.51______ Write a plan. It is very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away.52______ Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map”, you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time. Be willing to pay the price. 53______ So you must be ready to work hard ---- even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable. 54________ It seems to us that everyone knows this, but it is easier said than done. When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope. 55________ A. Never give up. B. A good plan is like a map to you. C. Here are some keys to success that they give. D. All these suggestions make it possible for people to succeed. E. Nothing great is easy to get.第三部分 主观题 第一节语法填空 (共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分) 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1 个单词）或括号内单词的正确形 式。 It was my first day in Hangzhou, the Chinese city famous for its natural beauty and history and I didn't have much time to spare.
