    Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activities. It may be walking, cycling or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some kind, football, hockey, golf, or tennis, it may be mountaineering.

    Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountaineering? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.

    Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man?made rules, as there are for such game as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of a different kind, which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man?made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.

    If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “game”. We would be mistaken in this assumption. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork.

    The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical capacities.

    A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably past his prime by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. But it is not unusual for a man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less wasted effort, and they certainly experience enjoyment.

    1.Mountaineering is a sport which involves all the following things EXCEPT ______.

    A．hardship B. comfort

    C．physical risk D．cold

    2.The main difference between a sport and a game lies in origin of the ________.

    A．uniform B．activity

    C．skills D． rules

    3.Mountaineering is also a team sport because ________.

    A．it involves rules as well

    B．it involves matches between teams

    C．mountaineers depend on each other while climbing

    D．it requires mental and physical qualifications

    4.Which of the following is TRUE?

    A．Mountaineers compete against nature.

    B．Mountaineers compete against teams.

    C．Mountaineers compete against each other.

    D．Mountaineers compete against international standard.

    5.What is the best title for the text?

    A．Mountain Climbers.

    B．Mountaineering.

    C．Mountaineering is gaining popularity.

    D．Mountaineering is More Dangerous than Other Sports.

    Every living cell contains genes. They are too small to be seen in a microscope, but they are very important. Each set of genes in the body contains all the instructions needed to make a human being. Some genes determine hair color. Some determine the shape of a nose. Some genes help determine your height and even your weight.

    Genes are made of a chemical called DNA-the letters stand for deoxyribonucleic acid(脱氧核糖核酸). In the early 1950's, two scientists, Francis Crick and James Watson, figured out how the parts of DNA fit together. Once scientists understood this structure, it became possible to take pieces of DNA apart and put them together in new ways. New kinds of genes could be made in this manner.

    Scientists have studied the genes of many plants and animals. They have worked out which genes affect the color of a tomato and the thickness of its skin. Working out which genes determine which features is called genetic mapping, scientists have begun the Human Genome Project, an ambitious effort to map all the genes in the human body.

    Some genes may be defective(有缺陷的). For example, something might be wrong with the gene that makes blood clot(凝聚). A baby born with this defective gene could suffer serious hemorrhages(出血) or even bleed to death because his or her blood fails to clot. If scientists ever learn how to map all the genes in our bodies, they can determine whether or not an unborn child has any defective genes. They might even discover how to treat these genes before the child is born.

    1.What was the achievement of Francis Crick and James Watson?

    A. They discovered why people have different hair colors.

    B. They learned that some people bleed for long periods of time.

    C. They looked at human cells under the microscope.

    D. They worked out the structure of DNA.

    2.What is the main idea of this passage?

    A. Defective genes can never be repaired.

    B. Genes are too small to be seen through a microscope.

    C. Genes help scientists understand how living things develop their characteristics.

    D. The Human Genome Project may explain the role of every gene in the body.

    More than anything else in the world, Lion liked being King of the jungle(丛林). He walked around, showing off his power and pride.

    Each day Lion took a long lazy sleep under the shade of his favourite tree. He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing(鞠躬) before him.

    One day Mouse ran through the jungle and tripped over Lion’s huge paws. Lion woke up with a start. “How dare you wake me up!” he shouted angrily. Lion grabbed(抓住) Mouse with one paw. “On the second thought, I’m in the mood for the snack, and you’ll make a delicious meal.”, he said.

    I had the meanest mother in the whole world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have porridge, eggs or toast. When others had Cokes and candy for lunch, I had to eat a sandwich. But at least I wasn’t alone when I was sad. My sister and two brothers had the same mean(刻薄的) mother as I did.

    My mother preferred to know where we were all the time. She had to know who our friends were and where we were going. We had to clean clothes and take a bath every day. The other kids got to wear the same clothes for days. We could not lie in bed “sick” in order to miss school.

    The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by nine each night and get up at eight the next morning. We couldn’t sleep till noon like our friends. So while they slept, my mother was brave to break the Child Labour Law. She made us work. We had to wash dishes, make beds, and learn to cook and all sorts of things at home. I believe she lay awake thinking up all things for us to do.

    My mother was a complete failure as a mother. Two of her children received higher education. None of us have ever been arrested (taken away by the police) or divorced. She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. I am trying to raise my three children this way. I am filled with pride when my children call me “mean”. Why? Because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.

    1.How many children does the writer’s mother have?

    A．Four B．Two C．Three D．Six

    2.What can you infer(推测) from the passage?

    A．My family was rich, so I ate a sandwich for lunch.

    B．My mother was a great success. We love her.

    C．If we didn’t want to go to school, the best way was to pretend to be sick.

    D．We needn’t share the housework at home.

    3.The best title for this passage may be________.

    A．My childhood B．The meanest mother

    C．I do as my mother did D．Unforgettable memories

    How can we all get more laughter into our lives? Here is what the experts suggest:

    1. . Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N. Y., was once painfully shy and had a hard time laughing. Then she married a circus clown (小丑). “I became interested in the clowns,” she recalls “One day I put on a costume and paint my face. That afternoon my whole life changed. I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.” 2. To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.

    3. It doesn’t take you too much time and can be easy. Collect favorite cartoons and jokes. Also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life. “Good ideas come and go fast, you have to capture them quickly or they are gone,” says Virginia Tooper.

    Laugh when you need it most. “ 4. ” says comedian Bill Cosby. “And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it,” he insists.

    Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can all gain--because it comes naturally. 5. . Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs.

    A. You can soften the worst blows through humor.

    B. Mix with people who laugh.

    C. Practise the art of laughing.

    D. Keep a laughter file.

    E. He who laughs last laughs best.

    F. But it’s also something that has to be developed.

    G. People’s joy can affect those around them.
