It was in late April, dangerously near the well – known AP exams, when the absurdity(无助的荒诞感) of my life struck me. I was making a 36 of problems to be discussed for the evening as usual. When I 37 the great number of things on the list—a literature essay, timelines for American History, a Spanish presentation and 38 for tests in both Calculus and Physics, I was overwhelmed(难以承受) to the point of 39 exhaustion (extreme tiredness). After - school arrangements had already worn away my 40 . To keep myself awake at 11p.m. to finish five hours of 41 just seemed like too much to handle. I 42 at the computer screen with tears streaming down my cheeks, 43 my friend James about how stressed out I was over school.
His response was immediate. “Well, 44 did you decide to take five AP classes on the top of everything you’re doing?”
My response 45 just as quickly. “Because I need them for college. Harvard won’t 46 someone who doesn’t challenge themselves with difficult classes!”
The words sounded so 47 as I typed them on the screen that I 48 laughed out loud. I was supposed to be 49 myself not torturing(折磨) myself. That was the night I 50 that I didn’t need to deal with a course load of disastrous difficulty to 51 my own self – worth.
It was a little too late to 52 things, of course. The AP exams were about to go full – force, 53 were winding down, and most of my clubs and organizations were about to hold their end – of – year parties. Still, I 54 a valuable lesson. No college, one billion dollar endowment (资助) or not, is worth the 55 I went through last year. I wish I’d had someone to tell me sooner that I didn’t have to do everything. Colleges don’t really want overachieving robots, They want people with passion(love). It doesn’t matter whether you’re a policy debater or not, as long as you show that you’re going for the things you love.

BEIJING，Nov．25，2005（Reuters）—China’s home-grown human bird flu vaccine is at least a year away from hitting the market but tests on humans have been approved (批准) by the government，head of the research drug company said on Friday．
Development of the vaccine started last year after bird flu outbreaks in Thailand and Vietnam and animal trials have already been completed，said Yin Wei-dong，managing director of Sinovac Biotech．
“It is not a virus that is spreading from human to human，so we are very optimistic，” Yin told Reuters in an interview．
The deadly H5N1 made its first known jump to humans in Hong Kong in 1997，killing six people．The virus appeared again in late 2003 and is known to have infected 130 people in several parts of Asia，killing 68 of them．
“It is not decided yet when the human trials will begin．We just got approval on November 22 by the State Food and Drug Administration，” Yin said．
Oregon，Nov．26,2005（AP）—The deadly strain of bird flu that appeared in Asia and has already spread to other parts of the world has not affected the Oregon poultry (家禽) industry or consumers，according to Oregon State University researchers．
There are many strains of bird flu that do not usually infect humans．But one strain，called H5N1，has jumped from chickens to humans and is blamed for more than 60 deaths in Asia．
International disease control experts are worried about a worldwide outbreak of bird flu，raising concerns such as whether it is safe to eat poultry．
But Oregon State University researchers say there is no proof that the virus can jump to humans by eating cooked poultry products．
“Consumers needn’t be overly concerned about bird flu，” said Jim Hermes，OSU Extension Service poultry specialist．But he urged consumers to follow standard food safety practices in preparing poultry—including washing hands while preparing food，and proper cooking of poultry meat and eggs．
He noted that a 2003 outbreak of bird virus caused much damage to commercial poultry operations in California but did not get into Oregon because of industry safeguards．
60．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the first news report?
A．Human trials have already started but not yet successful．
B．Bird flu killed 68 Asian people in its second outbreak．
C．The bird flu virus is not one that spreads from human to human．
D．The government has agreed to have the vaccine tried on humans．
61．What does the first news report mainly talk about?
A．The new outbreak of the bird flu．
B．How the development of the bird flu vaccine is going on．
C．How many people died of bird flu．
D．What measures the government has taken to stop the spreading of bird flu．
62．What does the underlined word “strains” probably mean?
A．signs． B．symbols． C．kinds． D．diseases．
63．What can we know from the second news report?
A．Because of the safety guards，Oregon poultry industry didn’t suffer any loss in
the 2003 outbreak of bird flu．
B．People in Oregon are not concerned about bird flu．
C．People will develop bird flu even if they eat well-cooked poultry products．
D．H5N1 has caused more than 60 deaths worldwide．

56yearold becomes 1st woman to swim Atlantic
(AP)－Jennifer Figge pressed her toes into the Caribbean sand, excited and exhausted as she touched land this week for the first time in almost a month. Reaching a beach in Trinidad, she became the first woman on record to swim across the Atlantic Ocean—a dream she'd had since the early 1960s,when a stormy transAtlantic (飞越大西洋) flight got her thinking she could wear a life vest and swim the rest of the way if needed.
The 56yearold left the Cape Verde Islands off Africa's western coast on Jan.12,2009, swimming 19 out of 25 days battling waves of up to 30 feet.The distance from Cape Verde to Trinidad is about 700 miles.Crewmembers are still computing exactly how many miles she swam.
The original plan was for her to swim to the Bahamas—a distance of about 2,100 miles—but inclement (恶劣的) weather forced her to change her plans and she arrived at Trinidad on Feb.5.She now plans to swim from Trinidad to the British Virgin Islands,ending her voyage at the Bitter End Yacht Club in late February.
Her journey came a decade after French swimmer Benoit Lecomte made the first known solo transAtlantic swim,covering nearly 4,000 miles from Massachusetts to France in 73 days.No woman on record had made the crossing.
Figge wore a red cap and wet suit,with her only goodluck charm (护身符) underneath:an old,red shirt to guard against chafing (磨痛),signed by friends,relatives and her father,who recently died.The other cherished (珍惜) possession she kept onboard was a picture of Gertrude Ederle,an American who became the first woman to swim across the English Channel.“We have a few things in common,”Figge said,“She wore a red hat and she was of German descent (血统).We both talked to the sea,and neither one of us wanted to get out.”
1.When did Jennifer Figge want to swim across the Atlantic Ocean？
A．After she reached a beach in Trinidad.
B．After she pressed her toes into the Caribbean sand.
C．After her stormy transAtlantic flight in the early 1960s.
D．After her graduation from a university.
2.Jennifer Figge had to change her plans .
A．because she wanted to shorten her voyage
B．because of bad weather conditions
C．because she wanted to end her voyage in late February
D．because she wanted to set a new world record
3.When did Benoit Lecomte probably make the first known solo transAtlantic swim？
A．In 1999. B．In 1988. C．In 1978 . D．In 1968.
4.For what purpose did Jennifer Figge keep a photo of Gertrude Ederle？
A．Figge would like to follow her example.
B．She had the same red cap as Figge always wore.
C．Figge also wanted to swim across the English Channel.
D．They were both born in Germany.
