His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There a school teacher asked his name.“.,” he replied. She thought he had said “Jesse”, so 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, Ovens 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 Ovens victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success wo uld come 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 shakehands 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 year before his death.Ovens’ 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.”got his other name “Jesse” when ______.A. he went to Ohio State UniversityB. his teacher made fun of himC. his teacher took “.” for “Jesse”D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet22.

Jesse Ovens ― a great American sportsmanB. Golden moment ― a lifetime memoryC. Making a living as a sportsmanD. Why was Jesse Ovens successfulBOne of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap.On September 11th, 1958, mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my arms, saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is.” What an honor! I became four years old a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told stories. I told it again and again how much I loved it!One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept(哭泣) and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard mum and dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”and “dying”, and all these words sounded ominous.Christmas was coming. “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Da d said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living rooms. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I had never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What He’s all right”He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!”“Thank God!” I heard mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home.I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty：they were filled with love!25. What happened to the author on September 11th, 1958A. He got a baby brother.B. He got a Christmas gift.C. He became four years old.D.

Which word can best describe the feeling of the father when Christmas was comingA. ExcitementB. HappinessC. DisappointmentD. SadnessCRemember that goals are dreams with a timetable. Our goals are important for us to create what enriches our life. A very common attitude among people who are successful is that their success lies in their ability to provide themselves goals that are both numerous and exciting. When you think about your future,you are helping to feed a long-term goal of what you want to create.To realize your dreams,you must translate your vision into a series of actions you can take as soon as possible. You should be able to measure these results,to make sure they take you wherever you want. And this step should not be viewed lightly! Indeed,very few people set goals and concrete actions for themselves to achieve. Very few people note what they want to accomplish,and know each day whether they have indeed advanced in the direction of their dreams.Therefore one of the secrets that you can get results from is to write down your goals on paper first. When you give your dreams a form,they become more concrete,and you can refer to them often and easily. Whenever you read the dreams that you note down,you fill your mind with positive and motivational thoughts.Unfortunately,many people stop there. They just simply make wishes, hope and wait. These people do not bring positive difference in their lives,because that sort of behavior is just wishful thinking. Success is not at all a miracle. It depends on clear and realistic targets through serious thoughts:concrete actions and perseverance(毅力). Don’t forget,your past does not determine your future. Only your now is your potential!28. People can achieve success commonly in that they__________.A. have many dreamsB. are well-informed of how goals goC. think a lot about their bright futureD. know what the goals are in their life29. If you put down your goals on the paper,you can__________.A. know clearly what should be doneB. make them accomplished smoothlyC. measure the results of the goals easi lyD. mention them easily to others30. The last paragraph mainly tells that__________.A. having dreams is very important to everyoneB. to translate goals into concrete actions is important for successC. what people did in the past affects what the are todayD. most people can make a difference in their life31. What is the best title for the passageA. The Path towards Your TargetsB. The Process of Making GoalsC. The Power of Your GoalsD. The Importance of Your SuccessDThe universe looks like a pretty quiet place to live. But the universe is filled with dangerous things, all struggling to be the one to wipe us off the planet. Happily for us, they’re all pretty unlikely, but if you wait long enough, one of them is certain to get us. But which one1. Death by Asteroid (小行星)Of all the ways we might meet our untimely death, getting wiped out by an asteroid is the most likely. Why Because we sit in a universal shooting gallery, with 100 tons of material hitting us every day. The problem, though, occurs every few centuries when something big this way comes. If you could ask a dinosaur, I’d imagine they would tell you to take this seriously.2. Death by Exploding StarWhen a huge star ends its life, it does so with a bang, which sends death spreading across space in the form of high-energy radiation. Many studies show that the bang would have to be closer than about 75 light years to do us any harm. The good news: no stars so close are able to do the deed.3. Death by Dying SunThe sun is important to us; without it, we’d freeze. But the sun is also middle-aged, already halfway to running out of fuel, expanding into a red giant, and cooking us to a fine crisp. Even long before then, it’ll warm up enough to raise our average temperature and cause a runaway greenhouse effect, boiling our oceans.Happily, that’s a long time from now.4. Death by Black HoleBlack holes are misunderstood. They don’t wander the galaxy looking for tasty snacksin the form of planets and stars; they turn around the Milky Way just like the hundredsof billions of other stars do. But it’s possible that one could wander too close to us.If it did, planetary paths would be disturbed, causing the Earth to drop into the sun orbe thrown out into deep space.Given that it could be trillions of years or more before even that happens, we don’t have to worry too much about black holes.My advice Go outside, look up, enjoy the sun, the moon, and the stars. They may be there forever as far as any one of us is concerned…and forever is a long, long time.underlined word “this” probably refers to ________.A. getting wiped out by a dinosaurB. an untimely deathC. a cosmic shooting galleryD. 100 tons of materialof the following will cause the earth’s average temperature to go up dramaticallyA.

Class sizes are small, exam results are good and most children are happy to stay at school after the minimum(最低的) leaving age of sixteen. 36For years, Ireland had one of the most complicated(复杂的) education systems in the world.37 Classes were large and the teaching was very traditional. As in many countries, teachers used to hit the children if they made mistakes. Fortunately, the punishment wasnot allowed in 1982.38 As a result, there were schools for the rich and schools for the poor. Boys and girls went to different schools. Nowadays, most schools are free and only about half the schools are either for girls or boys. 39 Girls do better than boys in their exams; more girls go to university and most teachers are women.At the end of secondary school, students take their final exams. Compulsory(必修的)subjects are maths, Irish and English. 40 Some of these, like business organization, help to prepare them for the world of work. This is very different from the past when Latin and Greek used to be the most important subjects.A. In many ways, education is now a woman’s world.B. Parents used to pay for their children’s education.C. In addition, they must choose two or three extra subjects.D. Public schools in Ireland are not run by the government.E. It is easy to forget that the picture used to be very different.F. Here, chi ldren do not learn any subjects but some basic skills.G. There were many different kinds of school, but most of them had a lot in common.III完形填空When we talk about a wolf, we tend to describe it as a kind fierce creature.

A 48 wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves 49 nothing. All the wolves obey the rules. 50 they are defeated, they runaway together.
