Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket —— anything with a round ball, I was useless.” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.
It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.
The following year, he met John Ridgway and he was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s School of Adventure in Scotland, where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.
In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his fist long-distance expedition towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite（冻疮）, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled（雪橇）up and over rocky ice. Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctic to the South Pole and back, a 2900-kilometer journey that has never been completed on skis.

A. He became good at most sports. B. He began to build up his body.

As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!
With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no ideas at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you. http://www.xkb1.com
Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life! You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your families have been with you since you came into this world.
It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens.
This period is part of the life circle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.
You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!
50. The best title for this passage would be _________.

A. Your parents. B. Your classmates. C. True friends. D. Your relatives.
52. The author thinks teenage years are _________.

If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion.
Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend large sum of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time changing their old-fashioned dresses. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.
No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely connected with necessary things like warmth, comfort and durability（耐用年限）. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn’t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or picking her way through deep snow in high heeled shoes.
When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability（稳定耐用）? That is for you to decide.
54. Designers and big stores always make money _________.
A. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry
B. because they are capable of predicting new fashions
C. by constantly changing the fashions in women’s clothes
D. because they attach great importance to quality in women’s clothing
55. To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dresses is seen as __________.
A. a waste of money B. a waste of time C. an expression of taste D. an expression of love beauty
56. New fashions in clothing are created for ________.
A. the commercial exploitation of women B. the women’s strength’s of character
C. basic qualities of inconstancy and instability D. an important contribution to society
57. By saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious” (Line 1 to line 2, Para. 4), the writer means that _________.
A. women’s inconstancy in their choice of clothing is often laughed at
B. women are better able to put up with discomfort
C. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers
D. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion

WENZHOU（Xinhua）—— “The train collision in east China’s Zhejiang Province has killed 39 people and left 192 others injured on Sunday night,” said a spokesman with the Ministry of Railways.
“A total of 132 people are still being treated in hospital,” said Wang Yongping, spokesman with the ministry at a press conference. “Eleven people remain in critical condition,” said Chen Jianguo, head of the Health Bureau in the city of Wenzhou, where the collision happened on Saturday night. Chen said at the press conference that 52 people who suffered slight injuries had been discharged from hospital. Wang expressed condolences（哀悼）to the concerning families and sincere apology to all the passengers.
“The train’s ‘black box’ has been discovered and the ministry is investigating the cause of crash,” Wang said. He said the ministry will make public the cause of the accident as soon as the investigation is done and public the names of the killed and injured.
Wang said the crash has caused large number of casualties and great property losses（人员和财产损失）. The ministry will find out the cause through thorough investigation and take effective measures to prevent similar accidents.
Despite the accident, the spokesman said the ministry is confident in the high-speed train. “China’s high-speed train is advanced and qualified. We have confidence in it,” he said.
“The damaged rails have been repaired and were ready to restart operation but the reopening was delayed by the stormy weather,” according to Wang. Wang did not provide the exact time when the line would start operat ing again.
The accident occurred at about 8:30 p. m. Saturday on a bridge near Wenzhou when bullet train D301 rear-ended（追尾） D3115, which reportedly lost power after lightning strike.
58. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The Railway Ministry is investigating the cause with the help of the “black box”.
B. Bullet train D301 hit the train D3115 that stopped ahead of it due to lack of power.
C. Bullet train D3115 was forced to stop as a result of human interference.
D. The operation of the line would be restarted with the stormy weather over.

C. Investigations upon Train’s Collision. D. Confidence in Development of High-speed Trains.
60. This passage is most likely to be taken from __________.
A. a science fiction B. an essay C. a travel brochure D. a newspaper
第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下面A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. The secret of the writer’s success
B. A writer with enduring popularity
C. Well-received creation to encourage Brits
D. The insight into human nature
E. Writing styles in different stages
F. The story appreciates for school students
61. ______________ __
Charles Dickens is often thought of as one of England’s great writers. Yet for many his language is old-fashioned and his story plots are of ten improbable. Why, Dickens, out of so many other great English writers, has made the list? How then to explain Dickens’s enduring popularity?
62. ________________
One reason undoubtedly is the British government’s insistence that every child studies a Dickens’ novel at school. Alongside William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens is a compulsory（必读的）writer on every English literature school reading list. His stories, though often over-long by today’s standard, are superbly written moral tales. They are filled with colorful characters.
63. ________________
But what makes his books stand out from other English writers is his insight into human nature. Dickens, like Shakespeare, tells us truths about human behavior that are as true to citizens of the 21st century as they were to his readers in the 19th century. Readers have returned to Dickens’s books again and again over the years to see what he has to say about readers’ own time.
64. ________________
The BBC adapted one of his less well-known novels, Little Dorrit, into a popular television drama that introduced many Brits to the novel for the first time. A dark story about greed and money, it was the perfect story to illustrate the bad times. No surprise then that it was Dickens Britons turned to, during the economic crisis last year, to make sense of world rapidly falling apart.
65. ________________
Readers of the 19th and early 20th century usually prized Dickens’s earlier novels for their humor and pathos（悲痛）. While recognizing the virtues of these books, critics today tend to rank more highly the later works because of their formal coherence and acute perception（洞察力）of the human condition. For as long as Dickens’s novels have something to say to modern audience, it seems likely that he will remain one of Britain’s best loved writers.

Dear Mike,
I’m so glad to learn that you want to learn Chinese. There is no doubt that to leaning Chinese well is by no means an easy thing, but I have some ideas that may help.
Firstly, it is important to listen to the teacher carefully and take notes so that you can go over your lessons later. Secondly, try to practice speaking Chinese as much as possible out of class and write whatever you hear down to accumulate more words and expressions. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. And try to communicate with local people to develop listening skills. Last but not least, you should organize your time well and do a lot of exercise.
I think the most important thing is that you should believe in yourself. I’m sure that you will succeed after your hard work.
