    试题分析：本文讲述的是一个弱视的13岁少年，凭借积极向上的心态和艰苦的努力，在体操方面达到较高水平。她的故事激励人们：相信自己能创造奇迹，即使没有很好的先天条件。
    小题1:考查动词词义辨析。联系前半句“为了完美她的技术”，我们知道，她要每周五天，每天训练四小时，因此此处要用train(训练)一词。故选C
    小题2:名词辨析。“That's especially impressive”的原因是“she is legally blind”，前后是因果关系，因此此处用since引导原因状语从句。故选A
    小题3:句的连接词。 Lola 在 16 个女孩中获得第七，成绩已经让人印象深刻，因为她视力不佳。这里 since引导原因状语从句。故选A
    小题4:考查动词词义辨析。 tell 辨别，判定； guess 猜想； assume 假定，设想； predict 预测。这里讲她天生弱视，根本无法判断事物的远近。故选D
    小题5:考查副词词义辨析。文章第三段就提到了，她视力有问题，看不清物体，叠影，分辨不清物体离她有多远，因此此处要选well。故选B
    小题6:考查名词词义辨析。根据上文谈到的 gymnastics(体操 )，可知她喜欢上了这 个 “ 运动 ” 。另外，后面的文段也说明了这是种运动。故选B
    小题7:考查形容词词义辨析。这里说的是相对于其他队友而言， Lola 学习体操更困难些。故用形容词成difficult。
    小题8:考查名词词义辨析。她不让自己的状况 (弱视 )影响自己的爱好，所以选 condition“ 情况，状况 ” 。
    小题9:考查名词词义辨析。由后文 “Because she has double vision, she often sees two beams.”可知，由于她的视力问题，对她来说这是个最大的挑战。
    小题10:考查动词词义辨析。因为眼睛无法看清，所以只有相信自己的感觉。 trust相信。她闭上眼睛是因为她相信(trust)她的能力，相信它能带你想去的地方。故选D
    小题11:考查形容词词义辨析。因为平衡木只有四英寸宽，因此我们可以说它是令任何人最害怕的，因此我们此处选用fearful，指“令人恐惧的，令人害怕的”。harmful有害的；unfair不公平的；inconvenient不方便的，均不合语境。
    小题12:考查介词词义辨析。每个人都恐惧，但 Lola 没有从平衡木上面跌落，反而获得了高分。 fall off(从……上 )跌落。故选C
    小题13:考查动词词义辨析。她不想受到与队里别的女孩不一样的对待，指“她希望教练能把她当正常女孩”。因此此处我们要选treat，对待之意。故选B
    小题14:考查名词词义辨析。上文就提到她有视力方面的问题(problem)。在比赛的时候，裁判们都不知道她的眼睛有问 题。故选D
    小题15:考查形容词词义辨析。她凭自己的实力比赛，而不是获得裁判的怜悯， 这种积极的态度让妈妈也为之惊奇。 positive 积极的； friendly 友好的； flexible 灵活的； cautious 小心的，谨慎的。故选A
    小题16:考查动词词义辨析。她从没想过放弃，她想取得最好的成绩。 defend 保 卫，捍卫； quit 放弃，退出； win 赢，获取； bargain 讨价还价。故选B
    小题17:考查名词词义辨析。她目前的水平是 7 级，最高是 10 级，她的目标是达 到 9 级。 goal 目标。故选D.
    小题18:考查状语从句的连接词。当她长大后，她要当个体操教练把她所学的传给别的孩子。when she grows up为when引导的时间状语从句。故选C
    小题19:考查形容词词义辨析。be proud of 对……自豪；be tried of 对……厌倦；be ashamed of 对……羞愧；be confident of对……有信心。她为自己付出的努力和获得的成功感到骄傲。考查形容词词义辨析。她为自己付出的努力和获得的成功感到骄傲。故选A
    小题20:考查名词词义辨析。“Just believe in yourself”是她给别人的建议，因此advice(建议，劝告)为最佳之选。她给他人的建议 (或启示 )就是 “ 要相信自己 ” 。故选B.

    The story I’m going to tell truly happened in my life.
    The other day, I met a man outside the gym who       a movie star. He was handsome and smiling. His upper body was muscular（肌肉发达的）and he       to be on top of the world.
    “How are you?” I       with a smile. “I’m doing really well,” he replied in a cheerful voice. His enthusiasm and big smile        the parking garage.        as he walked up, I       his long legs were thin and I saw he had a silver cane (手杖). “Why do you need that cane?” I couldn’t        thinking he had a minor injury. “I have MS,” he answered in a        voice too, as if his broad smile       left his face. Multiple Sclerosis（多发性硬化症）is a very serious disease and often painful. I looked at him from my little red sports car and said, “You        it very well. You seem like a happy man       the MS.” Without losing a bit of his smile he replied, “I am a happy man,” and then added, “I’d be even happier if I had that sports       .”
    It was ironic (讽刺的). Just       we spoke, I’d been sitting in that little sports car, feeling sad about my painful shoulder over the last 11 months as I was       after an operation. Here’s a man with a       far tougher than mine, but his positive attitude made him feel no less happiness. He went on with his       of life as usual, which moved me deeply.
    It was also a wonderful reminder of that old       , “I cried because I had no shoes. Then I met a man who had no feet.”       your problems, just keep in       that none of us goes through life       and you should make the most of what you have, like the man with MS. Count your blessings.

    He is talent and charm(魅力) have made him the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world. He played in the grand Beijing Olympic opening ceremony last summer, watched by a TV audience of 5 billion.
    Lang Lang, 26, is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world’s top orchestras, making his debut at the Carnegie Hall in New York at 18, while still a student.
    Lang Lang’s charm and fondness for sharp clothes make him a natural fit to represent（代表）China’s new international image. According to the British newspaper the Times, “The Lang Lang effect” is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.
    Now in China children are learning Chopin(肖邦) and Western orchestras are touring Chinese cities, but can China ever export（出口）its own music to the west? Lang is trying. His cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestras this month includes a performance of Dragon Songs, an album of traditional Chinese classics.
    Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his father’s own musical ambition and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practice the piano every day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He injured his right hand six years ago and had to rest. “That was the best month,” he says, without hesitation. “I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert.”
    小题1:Which of the following is NOT the reason why Lang Lang is the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world?
    A．He played in the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony last summer.
    B．He has as many as 5 billions fans in China.
    C．He is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world’s top orchestras.
    D．He plays the piano so well and has a good international image.
    小题2:The underlined word “debut” in the second paragraph probably means____.
    A．first classB．first performanceC．first planD．first choice
    小题3:Which of the following statements about Lang is true?
    A．He has 36 million Chinese students in China.
    B．He is touring China giving concerts.
    C．He is trying to export Chinese music to western countries.
    D．He only played traditional Chinese classics in his cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestra.
    小题4:From the last paragraph we can infer _____.
    A．Lang didn’t like his father when he was little
    B．he was happy to practice the piano everyday
    C．his father’s desire and expectations played an important role in his childhood
    D．he injured his right hand on purpose six years ago

    Growing up, I knew I was different. My father had left and he never came back. As I later discovered, the abandonment triggered my anxiety attacks. I feared being alone, unwanted, unpopular, and unloved.
    My first attack came in a ninth-grade class: The teacher asked me to walk in front of the class, but I couldn't do it- I was soaked in sweat, shaking. My symptoms began every morning from the moment when I stepped inside the school building.
    Throughout my childhood, I was no stranger to the doctor's office. My mother tried everything she could in hope of a breakthrough. There were times I thought suicide could be the only way to make the pain stop.
    By age 16, I had shut down socially. Most of my peers were going to parties, playing sports, and dating. But I was a prisoner in my own home.
    Then one Sunday morning, my wake-up call came from a magazine article. Freddie Prinze, Jr. was on the cover. The article detailed the pain of losing his father at a young age. I felt as though I were reading my own life story. The only difference? He was now a success.
    That article inspired me to explore a new treatment option for myself. I wanted to turn my life around as well. So I hit the library and the Internet, and I began to realize how my negative thoughts controlled my physical well-being.
    Immediately, I made a plan to take charge of my life. Shortly after following the items I had listed, I was able to stop seeing a therapist. I never returned to high school, but I did go to college. After graduation, I pursued a career in television news. My relationships have changed for the better, too. I've made new friends and reconnected with many from my past
    The anxiety isn't completely gone, but whenever it returns, I know the feeling will pass, and know I have the power to change my life, only if I will give myself a chance.
    小题1:The writer's anxiety attacks were mainly caused by         .
    A．the high school which he attendedB．the teacher who asked him to walk
    C．the writer himself who was fearfulD．the father who left in his childhood
    小题2:The breakthrough of the writer's treatment came when________.
    A．the mother took him to the doctorB．the writer read a magazine article
    C．the writer's pain finally stoppedD．the writer went to college
    小题3:What did the writer do after following the plan?
    A．He went to see therapists.B．He returned to high school.
    C．He contacted his old friends.D．He didn't suffer any attacks.
    小题4:The writer wrote this story to tell us________.
    A．anxiety attacks are not lasting if we have proper treatment
    B．we shouldn't keep ourselves away from the outside world
    C．we can change our lives if we give ourselves a chance
    D．fathers are not supposed to abandon their small kids

    Although the Garden God had made him the most beautiful place that there could ever be, Adam was lonely.
    Adam needed some   . So God reached into the ground again and took some more stuff from the earth. This time he made every kind of animal and every kind of bird. He brought them all to Adam to see   he would call them. It must have   a long, long time to think up all those   ! Luckily, he didn't call them things like 'Foo Foo' or “Snuggems”or 'Pooky' or anything like that.     , he called them 'gerbils' and 'rabbits' and 'rhinoceroses'. And he   the birds 'eagles' and 'egrets' and 'ruby throated warblers'.
    Well,     , we don't know what Adam named them,     he didn't speak English. But he named each kind, and that's important because people are the only ones that name things. Your   knows what a squirrel is, but he doesn't call   a squirrel. He just barks   it! But naming things is one of the things that shows we are   from all the other creatures that God made.    
        even with all the animals around to keep him company, God saw that Adam was    sad. Monkeys are fun to play with, but they don't have very much to say and they have   table manners. So God made Adam fall   , and while Adam was sleeping, God took one of his ribs(肋骨).God took Adam's   and he made a woman from it. When Adam woke up, God   Eve to him , and Adam said, “At last! Here is   like me! Her bones were made from my bones, and her body was made from my body. I will call her 'woman' because that means she was taken out of man.”
    At last Adam was   . And so Adam and Eve lived together in God's garden.

    There was once a professor of medicine, who was very strict with the students. Whenever he took the chair on the exam committee, the students would be in fear, because he was seldom pleased with the answers they gave. A student would be lucky enough if he or she could receive a good mark from him. At the end of the term, the students of medicine would take their exam again. Now a student entered the exam room and got seated before the committee. This student was a little nervous as he knew it would not be so easy to get through the exam at all.
    The professor began to ask. The student was required to describe a certain illness, his description of which turned out to be OK.
    　　Then the professor asked about the cure (药剂) for illness, and the student, too, answered just as right.
    “Good,” said the professor, “ and how much will you give the patient?”
    “A full spoon”, answered the student.
    “Now you may go out and wait for what you can get.”, said the professor. At the same time, the committee discussed carefully the answers the student had given. Suddenly the student noticed that there was something wrong with his last answer. “ A full spoon is too much,” he thought to himself. Anxiously he opened the door of the room and cried, “Mr Professor, I’ve make a mistake! A full spoon is too much for a patient. He can take only five drops.”
    “I’m sorry, sir.” Said the professor coldly, “But it’s too late. Your patient has died.

    D．he had not done well in the exam.
    小题4:Which of the following is Not true?
    A．The patient will be in danger if he’s taken as much as a full spoon.
    B．The doctor will be in trouble if he’s given the patient a full spoon.
    C．Since one spoon is less than five drops, the patient will be all right soon if he takes only one full spoon at a time.
    D．If the patient wants to remain safe, he should take no more than five drops at a time.

    I lost my sight when I was four by falling off a box car in a freight（货物）yard in Atlantic City. Now I am thirty two. I can slightly remember what color red is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a disaster can do strange things to people. I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn’t been blind. I don’t mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left.
    Life, I believe, asks constant adjustments to reality. The adjustment is never easy. I was totally confused and afraid. But I was lucky. My parents and my teachers saw something in me—a potential to live, and they made me want to fight it out with blindness.
    The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself. If I hadn’t been able to do that, I would have become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life. When I say belief in myself, I mean: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the intricate（错综复杂的） pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit.
    It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt. “I can’t use this.” I said. “Take it with you,” he urged me, “and roll it around.” The words stuck in my head. “Roll it around!” By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball. At Philadelphia’s Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a new kind of baseball. We called it ground ball.
    All my life I have set a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time. I had to learn my limitations. It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was out of reach. I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.
