8.Twelve years ago,I was a 19-year-old guy living in the French A1ps.In February 2004,while skiing the back-country in Val d'Isere,I fell off the mountain,resulting in a right leg broken in several pieces.I was helicoptered to hospital,operated on immediately-and there started my adult life.
Before the accident,I was on a path to what I hoped would be a career in rugby.After-wards,and participation in collision sport was gone.I found a replacement in cycling.Unfortunately,by late 2012,I tried to cycle up Mount Ventoux,but it was halfway up when the pain hit me and I gave up.
A decision needed to be made on a next step.I had to have my lower right leg cut off.Several months later,I had my first proper weight-bearing prosthetic (假肢).I jumped on a train with my bike to Mount Ventoux.Though it certainly wasn't my quickest,I did it.
Two weeks later,I was lucky enough to be given a running blade; I bounced on it that day and then raced my triathlon (三项全能) on the Monday.So,that was me,up and running-almost 12years since I had last run.
Along with my running coach,I complete a"make every kilometre count"programme of four runs per week alongside a busy cycle,swim and gym schedule.So far this year,I have raced a 10k with an unexpected personal best in January of 38:04.I have my first speed triathlon in late March before heading to North Korea to compete in the Pyongyang Marathon on 10April.
If my lifetime allows,I will attempt to race in every country in the world.In the meantime,I'll keep on running-and,when it hurts and I'm low on motivation,I'll remember how far I've come and how much further I've got to go.

24.What had been the author's special interest before the accident?D
A.Skiing.B.Running.C.Cycling.D.Rugby.
25.How was the author,s second try of cycling up Mount Ventoux?D
A.He fell off and was seriously hurt.
B.He gave up because of great pain.
C.He was the quickest to get to the top.
D.He succeeded in getting to the top.
26.What is the author's wish?A
A.To race all over the world.
B.To participate in collision sport.
C.To cycle up Mount Ventoux again.
D.To compete in the Pyongyang Marathon.
27.Which of the following word best describes the author?C
A.Enthusiastic.B.Considerate.C.Determined.D.Generous.

7.Because conflict and disagreements are part of all close relationships,couples need to learn strategies for managing conflict in a healthy and constructive way.Some couples just(51)Dand deny the presence of any conflict in a relationship.(52)D,denying the existence of conflict results in couples(53)C to solve their problems at early(54)C,which can then lead to even greater problems later on.Not surprisingly,expressing anger and disagreement leads to lower marital (婚姻的)satisfaction at the beginning.However,this pattern of behavior(55)Dincreases in marital satisfaction over time.Research suggests that working through conflicts is an important predictor of marital satisfaction.
So,what can you do to manage conflict in your own relationships?First,try to understand the other person's point of view(56)Dput yourself in his or her place.People who are (57)A to what their partner thinks and feels (58)B greater relationship satisfaction.For example,researchers found that among people in dating relationships (59)C marriages,those who can adopt their partner's perspective show more positive emotions,more relationship-enhancing attributes and more constructive responses(60)A conflict.
Second,because conflict and disagreements are an (61)Bpart of close relationships,people need to be able to apologize to their partner for wrongdoing and (62)C forgiveness from their partners for their own acts.Apologies minimize conflict,lead to forgiveness,and serve to restore relationship closeness.In line with this view,spouses(配偶) who are more forgiving show higher mental quality over time.Increasingly,apologizing can even have(63)Bhealth benefits.For example,when people reflect on hurtful (64)Cand grudges(怨恨),they show negative physiological(生理的) effects,including (65)Dheart rate and blood pressure,compared to when they reflect on sympathetic perspective-taking and forgiving.

4.Boys a bit different in USA
[1]HEY boys,attention please!If you want to go to the US one day,you'd better be fully prepared,because,well,you and the boys in the US are a bit different.In my opinion,you'd better try to do the following things.
[2]Firstly,know how to knot a tie (打领带).In the US,every boy above school age wears suits when they go to weddings (婚礼).My friend Madison from Virginia said it shows respect to others.Do you know how to          ?Learn how!
[3]Secondly,be a gentleman.I know in China some boys are still proud of being strong.But in the US,a good man should also be polite.Here are two examples:holding the door for people behind you and giving the seat on a bus to old people.
[4]The last is to learn something about football and baseball.Chinese boys like ping-pong,basketball and soccer,but American boys love football and baseball.They get very happy when they play and watch these sports.It's not necessary to be a fan of football or fix (固定) your TV channel to baseball games.But in order to watch the sports with other boys,at least learning some rules would help.
[5]However,all this doesn't mean that the American way is always the right way.We sometimes need to know the importance of another culture,but don't feel you have to know that if it makes you uncomfortable.Have fun along the way!

76.Who might be the audience of this speech?(within 10words)Chinese boys who may go to the US.
77.Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 2?(within 3words)knot/wear a tie; tie a necktie
78.Which paragraph might the following example be put in?(within 2words)(Paragraph) 3.
"Men in the US like to follow the‘ladies first'rule."
79.What are the popular sports among American boys?(within 3words)Football and baseball.
80.How do you understand the last paragraph?(within 15words)It's helpful to do as the locals do,but it's not always necessary./
We should know the importance of another culture,but we don't have to follow it..

11.When Major Mary Jennings Hegar was serving as a captain in Afghanistan,her aircraft was shot down by enemy fire while she and her crew were taking back injured soldiers.Though injured,she completed the rescue mission (任务) while under tire on the ground and received the Purple Heart and the Distinguished Flying Cross for"outstanding heroism and selfless devotion to duty."
However,Hegar did not get credit for serving in combat (战斗),for it is illegal for women to be in official combat positions and to get the benefits that come with them.Hegar and three other service women filed a lawsuit(诉讼) in federal court in San Fransico on Nov.27in a long-overdue challenge to the Pentagon's (五角大楼) ban.
Women have always served in the military (and lost their lives),but Congress and the Pentagon have limits on them,In 1988the military adopted the"risk rule,"which allowed women to be kept out of even noncombat positions if they were likely to be at risk of being fired on or captured(被俘).In 1994  it dropped that rule,but then Secretary of Defense Les Aspin adopted the ban on placing women in official ground combat positions after a poll showed weak public support for allowing women to volunteer for combat.
Many military women who constitute 14% of the 1.4million active members of the military object to the policy because it stops them from applying for some 238,000jobs and excludes (排除) them from certain promotions.It is particularly unfair because it doesn't protect women in service.Fully 85% of women,who have served since Sept.11,report having served in a combat zone or an area where they were faced with combat or immediate danger according to the lawsuit,and half reported being involved in combat operations.At least 860female troops have been wounded and 144killed in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
In fact,as Hegar's suit argues,the ban actually puts women in greater danger,la many cases,women fight alongside men in"female engagement teams"that endure the same conditions,but because they are thought not combat eligible (有资格的) they may not have received proper training.
The ban does another bad thing:drive talented women out of service.Hegar says she is asked to leave the Air National Guard for a Reserve Liaison position because she is excluded from jobs she would like to apply for.Another woman who is suing,Captain Alexandra Zoe Bedell who was sent twice to Afghanistan,left active duty last year,because of the combat exclusion policy.
It is hard to sec how the Pentagon could meet this burden.Clearly,women are capable of taking challenging,dangerous combat assignment,because as the careers of Hegar and others like her have shown they are doing it now.The Pentagon's policy is based on"outdated idea of women",just the sort of thing the Constitution forbids.
But the Pentagon should not wait for the courts to order it to treat female service members equally.There can be little doubt that a court will eventually do just that and little doubt that,in the very near future,the no-combat rule,like the racial segregation (隔离) of troops and"Don't ask,don't tell,"will seem like an ancient relic (遗物) of unenlightened (愚昧无知的) times.
66.What can we know about Major Mary Jennings Hegar from the first paragraph?B
A.She failed in the rescue mission.
B.Her deeds were awarded by authorities
C.While taking back the injured soldiers some crew died.
D.When she was serving as a captain her aircraft crashed.
67.The underlined word‘'constitute"in the fourth paragraph meansB.
A.take up 
B.make up 
C.set up 
D.build up
68.Many military women objected to the policy mainly becauseC.
A.it had an effect on women's rights
B.it was unfair to protect women in service
C.it prevented them from some jobs and promotions
D.it was opposed to women's volunteering for combat
69.What does the writer want to tell us in the last two paragraphs?A
A.Pentagon should stop the ban immediately.
B.Pentagon will not obey the court's decision.
C.Pentagon should have more women soldiers.
D.The public should be patient with the Pentagon.
70.Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?C
A.Hegar was popular with other military women.
B.The ban in fact reduced the number of the wounded.
C.Women can carry out dangerous combat assignments.
D.Pentagon's policy treated military men and women equally.
