解析:

  (1) `be able to do'指`能够做到...', 从而证实上面提到的发现。

  (3) 选项D`rise'与其后的`fall'对应。

  (5) 选项D`idea''可以理解为`了解、得知'。

  (6) 题干中的连词`since'意为`既然', 就此, 可以清楚地确定选项C。

  (7) `be controlled by' 指`受到...的控制'。

  (8) 题干中的连词`and'可以交待动作的因果关系。由于`tired'导至`fall     asleep'。由于`fall asleep'导至第二天的`lively'。

  (9) 由于`fall asleep'导至第二天的`lively'。

  (10) 选项A`disturbed'意为`受干扰'。

  (11) 选项B`feelings'指`感觉'。此题意思是`大多数的人会感到不适';而选项C指`意识', 选项D指`效果'与句意不符, 故不选。

  (12) 选项D`be used to doing sth'意思是`习惯做某事'。

  (13) 选项C`lack of sth.'意思是`缺乏某物'。

  (14) 选项A`perform'意思是`履行'。

  (15) 选项B `as well as'意思是`除了', 相当于`besides'。

  (16) 选项D`waking 醒来'与其前的`sleeping'对应使用。

  (17) 选项C`last longer'意思是`比...持续更长的时间'。

  (18) 选项A`agree'之后所叙述的内容其实属于前面The idea of a `body'的范畴, 故用选项A`agree'与之对应。

  (19) 该题实际上为`some..., others...'的用法。

  (20) `sometimes our ideas seem to flow and at other times, they just do not exist.'意思是`我们有时有主见, 有时却又没了主意。'

Most 23-year-olds have not done enough in life to be worthy of having their own documentary(纪录片)

  Most 23-year-olds aren't LeBron James.

  The NBA superstar, who recently won gold at the Beijing Olympics, has just released More Than a Game. It is a documentary that follows his rise to stardom (明星地位) and how he and four childhood friends overcame long odds to win a national championship in high school.

  Combining footage (镜头) taken during James' career at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio, US, along with one-on-one interviews by writer/director Kris Belman, home videos, and personal family photographs, the film is about much more than basketball. At its core (核心) is a story of friendship, loyalty and love.

  "We set out with a goal as kids and we wanted to accomplish that someway, somehow by using basketball as a tool, not knowing that it was going to create other opportunities for us," James said. "We didn't know it was going to create a brotherhood and trust. We grew from kids into young men."

  While James is the star, his former teammates, Dru Joyce III, Sian Cotton, Willie McGee and Romeo Travis, play a major role in the film.

  Their journey began together as 8-year-old boys, winds through years traveling all over America playing in basketball tournaments and finishes in their senior season at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School.

  At the time, Belman was a college film student. He set out to film James and his friends' season as his final school project, a 10-minute documentary. But after gaining the trust of the players and coach Dru Joyce, Belman spent two months filming and eventually teamed with producer Harvey Mason Jr to the full-length feature.

  James hopes the film will inspire youngsters (年轻人).

  "We set out with a goal when we were eight and we accomplished it when we were 18," he said. "It's a great story and I wanted to get it out to kids that have a dream, that they should continue to go after it, believe in it and live it if they want to accomplish something."

LeBron James achieved his goal set at 8 when         .

       A.he won a gold medal at the Beijing Olympics

       B.He won a national championship in high school

       C.he became a collage student

       D.he was interviewed by Kris Belman

Which of the following is unlikely to be included in the description of James?

       A.Friendly.  B.Faithful.   C.Hardworking.   D.Self-centered.

More Than a Game is           .

       A.James’ favorite story about his childhood

       B.a documentary filmed by James’ classmate

       C.a film made by Belman

       D.an article a bout James’ high school life

We can learn from the passage that More Than a Game is        .

       A.inspiring B.dull   C.puzzling   D.imaginary
