An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him. I agreed. During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy（肌肉萎缩症）. When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles (障碍) and going for my dreams. I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.” Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before: Dear Rick, My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live anymore. But I still smile as much as I can. I told you someday I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I will never get to do that. But I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.        Your friend,                                                                                                       Mathew 56.     The boy wanted to meet the author because ______.        A. he was interested in what the author was doing        B. he wanted to get a gold medal himself        C. he admired the author very much        D. he wanted the author to know him too 57.     The underlined part in the third paragraph probably means “______”.        A. Why do you come to see me?                 B. Why do I have to stay at home?        C. Why does the disease fall on me?            D. Why not give a gold medal to me? 58.     We can infer from the passage that ______.        A. Matthew was a determined boy and considered himself as normal        B. Rick used to have the same disease and later became a power lifter        C. Matthew was to become a champion before he died        D. After meeting Matthew, Rick regarded him as normal 59.     The boy refused the author’s medal because ______.        A. he wanted the picture instead                  B. he would not be pitied by others        C. he did not know he would die soon         D. he himself could earn one in the future 60.     The author wrote the passage with the purpose of ______.        A. describing his unusual friendship with a disabled child        B. showing his admiration towards the disabled child        C. telling an experience of meeting a disabled child D. expressing his pity to all the disabled children B Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people that peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (打乱) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a yawn (呵欠) and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine (常规的) work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours. 61.     Which of the following causes family quarrels?        A. Not knowing each other’s energy cycle.         B. Familiar monologues between husband and wife.        C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.        D. Attempts to control the energy of other family members. 62.     If you want to work better at your low point in the morning, you should ______.        A. change your energy cycle                      B. overcome your laziness        C. get up early than usual                          D. go to bed earlier 63.     You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.        A. help to keep your energy for the day’s work        B. help you to control your temper early in the day        C. enable you to get your energy on your routine work        D. keep your energy cycle under control all day 64.     What’s the best title of the passage?        A. Change Your Habits                              B. Save Your Energy        C. Daily Energy Cycle                              D. Temperature-and-Energy Peak C I used to dream about Pisa when I was a boy. I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa. But when I read the word Pisa, I was thinking of pizza. I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza. It must be the best pizza in the world, I thought. Many years later I finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa and not pizza. But there was still something special about it for me. The tower got its name because it really does lean to one side. Some people want to try to fix it. They are afraid it may fall over and they do not like the way it looks. I do not think it's a good idea to try to fix it. The tower probably will not fall down. It is 600 years old. Why should anything happen now? And, if you ask me, I like the way it looks. I like the way it leans over the city. To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect, it seems to say. And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect things may be more interesting. Let's take the tower in Pisa. Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa tower is the most famous. People come from all over the world to see it. 65.     This passage is about ____. A. Italian pizza                            B. Italy's problems C. how the Leaning Tower of Pisa got its name   D. why the author likes Pisa 66.     The writer _________. A. doesn't like the way the tower looks          B. likes the way the tower looks C. thinks it's the most beautiful tower in Italy     D. doesn't like towers 67.     The writer likes the Leaning Tower of Pisa because ______. A. it's old             B. it's perfect        C. it sells pizza          D. it's imperfect D 舱).This time, divers will use a controlled diving machine and enter the boat to make a careful search.

I think the ID card is a basic and necessary document, and it is often used by tourists. The camera is used to take pictures or record what we have done during the trip, and it can bring us a lot of fun. The compass is very essential for us to travel in the forests. Without it, we may get lost. And then the CD player, I think, is also very important for me to kill the time when on the train or the plane. What’s more, I have to bring one or two coats when traveling to a different place. In a word, among all above, I think the ID card is the most important.
