    Jean Driscoll can go faster in her wheelchair than the world’s best marathoners can run!
    In April, Jean finished the Boston Marathon in 1 hour 34 minutes 22 seconds. That’s about 33 minutes faster than the winning male runner! She competed on the track, too. She was second in the 800 meter wheelchair race at the 1992 Olympics.
    Jean doesn’t like to be told she’s brave. “I’m in sports because I’m a competitive person!” Jean was born with spina befida(脊柱裂), a birth illness that damages the spine（脊椎）. She began to use a wheelchair to get around in high school. Then she tried wheelchair race and was amazed.” Players crashed into each other and fell out of their chairs,” she says, “It was fun.”
    Jean tried other wheelchair sports. At the University of Illinois, her wheelchair basketball team won two national titles.

    A wise man once said, “A man who makes no mistakes usually does not make anything.” It took me a long time to gather the1to admit that I had been making mistakes since my earliest days.2, many of the things that I had learned were3.
    As a child from a poor family, I learned that when you had money, you were4to spend it on whatever brought you happiness5. I didn’t understand that even though putting money in the bank would not6me that quick joy, it could provide a sense of7— I still had that money.
    One problem is that I never had an opportunity to8any money of my own until late in my teen years. All of my gift money9to my parents for “saving”, which actually10to be an emergency fund(风险基金) for things such as food.
    On rare11, some relatives would give me some money, but they would12in my ear not to tell my mother and to spend it quickly on something fun. Their13was good — they wanted to bring joy to the life of a “14”boy, but it didn’t teach me any15skills. Soon I would go back to having no money.
    Another thing is that I believed that16help from others was bad. My parents were strict, and in many ways I17their philosophy (处事原则), but their personal beliefs prevented them from ever accepting any help.18we often had to live on a single part-time income, we never asked19anything. In this way, I was led to believe that accepting a helping hand, even in20of great need, was a sign of weakness.

    The old idea that child prodigies (神童) “burn themselves” or “overtax their brains” in the early years, therefore, suffer from failure and (at worst) mental illness is just a myth. As a matter of fact, the outstanding thing that happens to bright children is that they are very likely to grow into bright adults.
    To find this out, 1,500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty-fifth years with these results:
    On adult intelligence tests, they scored as high as they did as children. They were, as a group, in good health, physically and mentally. Eighty-four percent of their group were married and seemed content with their life.
    About 70 percent had graduated from colleges, though only 30 percent had graduated with honors. A few had even flunked out (退学), but nearly half of these had returned to graduate.
    Of the men, 80 percent were in one of the professions or in business, managerial or semiprofessional jobs. The women who had remained single had offices, business, or professional occupations.
    The group had published 90 books and 1,500 articles in scientific, scholarly, and literary magazines and had collected more than 100 patents.
    In a material way they didn’t do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth when last surveyed.
    In fact, far from being strange, maladjusted (难以适应) people locked in an ivory tower, most of the gifted were turning their early promises into practical reality.

    1. 1.

      The main idea of the passage is __________.

      1. A.
        that gifted adults can be as intelligent as when they were young
      2. B.
        that bright children are unlikely to be physically and mentally healthy
      3. C.
        that gifted children are most likely to become bright grown-ups
      4. D.
        that when the bright children grow up, they become ordinary
    2. 2.

      From the passage, we can conclude that ____________.

      1. A.
        most of the gifted children became white-collar workers
      2. B.
        half of the gifted followed up graduated from colleges
      3. C.
        each of the talented published at least one article
      4. D.
        successful men got higher income than successful women
    3. 3.

      Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?

      1. A.
        The gifted could not be fit for their social positions.
      2. B.
        Most of the bright and successful women remained single.
      3. C.
        The gifted men got full marks on intelligence tests.
      4. D.
        Most of the gifted appeared satisfied with their life.
    4. 4.

      The explanation of the underlined part “turning their early promises into practical reality” is _____________.

      1. A.
        earning their living and keeping promises
      2. B.
        doing practical jobs and facing reality
      3. C.
        doing what they have promised
      4. D.
        realizing what they were expected

    In most of the time, I am devoted to my research in the lab with my friend Dave, who loves traveling very much. To make our life colorful and relax ourselves, in July, my friend and I are taking a camping trip. We will travel for four weeks and will tour the United States and part of Canada. We have decided to camp because it does not cost as much as vacationing (度假) in hotels.
    We have to plan very carefully in advance. First, the car we are going to drive is very small, so we have decided to take only one small suitcase each and as few camping things as possible. We will take some medicine with us to prevent insects (昆虫) from hurting us, and also food for picnics. Second, there is a lot to see in the United States and Canada, so we have to decide on the direction (方向) we want to drive.
    The date we are leaving is July 2, from which day we will have two months off.  We want to see and do many things on our camping tour. We want to climb in the mountains, visit famous caves, and swim in cool mountain rivers. We want to visit many cities and talk to many people, which I am sure can enrich our experience greatly. We also want to find a hotel room if it rains at night. We expect to have an exciting trip.

    A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features(特定 )as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there  in and out glancing at one piece reading another article all the way through , reading just a few paragraphs of the next.A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性 ) , its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient (短暂的  ) value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper . For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently,  which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands  skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.

    1. 1.

      A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its______.

      1. A.
        wide coverage        
      2. B.
        uniform style
      3. C.
        speed in reporting news 
      4. D.
        popularity
    2. 2.

      According to the passage the reason why no two people really read the “same” newspaper is that _______.

      1. A.
        people scan for the news they are interested in
      2. B.
        different people prefer different newspapers
      3. C.
        people are rarely interested in the same kind of news
      4. D.
        people have different views about what a good newspaper is
