Since then, our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it. Here is a memo(备忘录)for your reference when you answer the phones. Sports 1：BasketballWe expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park. To cover the cost of hiring a bus, each student will have to pay$10 each time. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.Sports 2： GymWe will be using St. Peter's Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6：00 pm. Second, it has lot of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst. Three activities, skippding，jogging，outdoor aerobics(有氧运动)，all of which are free of charge, will be arranged.

Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single-engined aeroplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter(高度表)failed and she didn't know how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot was in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged(冲)into the sea.Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames(火焰)coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope.In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe.

A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and that meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet,I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well.He later informed me that I was "not athletic".The idea that Iwas “not athletic” stuck with me ror years. wnen I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带)became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!At mile 3, I passed a sign： "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!"By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt b adly. Despite the pain,I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.by mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, 1 could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签)，I can now call myself a "marathon winner".28. A month before the marathon, the authorA. lost hopeB. felt scaredC. was well trainedD. made up his mind to run29. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.B. To amuse the readers with a funny story.C. To show he was not talented in sports.D. To share a precious memory.30. How was the author's first marathon?A. He made it.B. He quit halfway.C. He got the first prize.D. He walked to the end.31.What does the story mainly tell us?A. One is never too old to learn.B.A man owes his success to his family support.C. A winner is one with a great effort of will.D. Failure is the mother of success.DWhen I revealed that I was planning to travel around Britain by public transport, everyone I saw said, ‘Gosh, you're brave!’but it never occurred to me to go any other way. Driving in Britain is such a dull experience these days. There are far too many cars on the road, nearly double what there were when I first came here, and in those days people didn't actually drive their cars. They just parked them in the driveway and cleaned them once every week or so. About twice a year they would ‘get the car out' for a pleasa nt drive to visit relatives or take a trip.Now everyone drives everywhere for everything, which I don't understand because there isn't a single feature of driving in Britain that has even the tiniest measure of enjoyment in it. Just consider the average multi-storey(多层的)car park. You drive around for ages, and eventually find a space that is exactly two inches wider than average car. Then, because you are parked next to a pillar(柱子)，you have to climb over the seats and end up squeezing out of the passenger door, in the process transferring all the dirt from the side of your car to the back of your smart new jacket. Then you go hunting for some distant pay-and-display machine, which doesn't give change.And that's just one tiny part of the driving experience. There are all, the other annoyances of motoring, like traffic lights on busy roundabouts(环形交通枢纽)that never let you advance more than 20 feet at a time, and motorway service areas where food is much more expensive. Motorized vehicles are ugly and dirty. They occupy every pavement, turn ancient market squares into disorderly and untidy groups of metal, and cause petrol stations andother discouraging places to appear in great number. They are horrible and awful and I wanted nothing to do with them on this trip.32. Why did the author decide to travel by public transport?A. Because he didn't have a car.B. Because he hated driving in Britain.C. Because he wasn't familiar with roads in Britain.D. Because he was inspired by how people used to travel.33. What did the author mainly complain about in Paragraph 2?A. The inconvenience of parking cars.B. The unreasonable parking fees.C. The uncleanness of car parks.D. The improper use of cars.34. How is the last paragraph developed?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of space.35. What would the author probably talk about in the paragraph that follows?A. The terrible places caused by vehicles.B. The bother caused by driving cars.C. His travels by public transport.D. His past driving experience. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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。
