An Extraordinary Change or Direction

Molly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity.

As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team.

She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home.

She says, “When I decided to do the round- the – world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race. They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey.”

Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn’t prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. “One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn’t move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.”

By the end of October last year, she had raised more than 50,000 pounds for charity.

She says, “ Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it’s the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.”

26. What does the word “extraordinary” mean in the title? ___B___

A. very ordinary

B. very unusual and surprising

C. not special

D. extreme

27. The sentence “ my husband thought I was bored “ in Para. 4 meant that my husband thought I felt __B______.

A. dissatisfied because I had nothing better to do at home

B. annoyed because I had to wait long for my children to come back home

C. happy because I could do something I was interested in instead of taking care of children

D. sad because all the children left me when they grow up

28. The word “section” in Para. 4 most probably means here __C_____

A. group of people

B. part of the training

C. part of the route of sail

D. part of the job

29. Which of the following is nearest ( closest) in meaning to “rough” in the sentence “One night the sea was very rough” in Para. 5? ___C______

A. not exact

B. difficult

C. not smooth because of huge waves

D. pleasant

30. The last paragraph suggests that ____A______.

A. the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancer

B. many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so she needn’t do anything before the journey

C. she should be kind to other team members during the trip

D. she should not forget dancing during the trip

短文理解 2

In the last 500 years, nothing about people—not their clothes, ideas, or languages – has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.

The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine” of 1845-6, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America.

There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the World’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It is first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.

According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a goatherd named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one

and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.

31. According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years? ___A___

A. Food

C. Potato D. Coffee B. Chocolate

32. “Some” in “Some still exist today” refers to ___C________.

A. some cocoa trees C. some shops

D. some South American Indians B. some chocolate drinks

33. Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine” because ___C_________.

A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything else.

B. they were forced to emigrate to America

C. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potato

D. the potato harvest was bad

34. Coffee originally came from ___D_______.

A. Brazil

B. Colombia D. Arabia C. Ethiopia

35. The Arabic legend is used to prove that ___D_______.

A. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi

B. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi’s goats

C. coffee was first discovered in South American countries

D. coffee drinks were first made by Arabs

Lily is 70 years old and she takes care of her 91-year-old mother. She told us about caring for her mother.

I wake up early every day, it’s usually about 6.30 am, and wait until I hear Tilly,

my mum, moving about. Then I make her a cup of tea. At about half past seven she gets up and we have breakfast together. We normally just have toast, but on Sundays we always have bacon and eggs. After breakfast she reads the newspaper, then she sits by the window and waves to the neighbours as they walk by.

She hardly ever goes out but she is very proud of her personal appearance, so she goes to the hairdresser once a month.

She doesn’t liker being left on her own for very long, so I always arrange for a neighbour to come and sit with her when I go out. Now and again, my friend and neighbour, Joan, comes to spend the day with her, and I can go and have lunch with another friend, May, who lives in town.

I have a brother, Syd. He comes to stay two or three times a year. He is very good and keeps in touch, but he lives 300 miles away. Once a year, he collects mum and takes her to stay with him in London for a week. She doesn’t really like going because it’s a long journey, but I need the rest.

Sally, the nurse, comes to see mum regularly. My next-door neighbour, Jack, often calls in. In the evening we usually watch TV and we sometimes play cards. Mum is fantastic for her age. But I can never decide to go anywhere spontaneously. I always have to plan it, so I feel a bit trapped. But what is the alternative? An old people’ home? I couldn’t do that to my mother?

36. Lily wakes before her mother. ( T )

37. Joan sometimes spends the day with Lily’s mother. ( T )

38. Tilly is satisfied with her hairdresser. ( NG )

39. Lily’s brother comes to visit every three weeks. ( F )

PAT the Dog

Did you know there are some very special dogs doing good work in our hospital wards? These are PAT ( Pets As Therapy) dogs. Doctors and nurses are recognizing the benefits of pets more and more – particularly for children, people with mental illnesses and elderly people who are separated from their own pets or have had to give up their pets.

Stroking and playing with a pet is a calming experience and something to look forward to. One hospital reported that a man with a mental illness, who hadn’t spoken for years, first stroked and played with a visiting dog and then started talking to it.

Today, around 4,500 dogs and 50 cats and their volunteer owners are at work in the UK bringing comfort and pleasure to over 100,000 people in hospital.

There are many other “working dogs”. There are guard dogs, police dogs, hunting dogs and dogs for the blind. Disabled people benefit greatly. Take the case of Alan Smythe, who has to visit hospital every month. Some things are difficult for him because he is in a wheelchair. But his life has altered dramatically since he got a god, Tess, from the charity “Dogs for the Disabled”. “She helps me to get dressed, and she brings me my socks and shoes. She fetches the newspaper from the shop, and she passes me the phone when it rings. I feel so much better too. It’s like having a really good friend. She comes with me to hospital. Once, she saved my life. I am a diabetic and one day my blood sugar level dropped, and when I was going into a coma she went next door and she alerted my neighbour. He gave me an insulin injection.”

26. Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage? ___B_________

A. All the dogs are allowed into the hospitals to visit the patients.

B. Only some special dogs can help the patients feel better.

C. Doctors and nurses doubt if pets can bring comfort to the patients.

D. Doctors and nurses are aware pets will bring benefits to all the patients.

27. Pets are particularly beneficial to the following EXCEPT ____C________.

A. children

B. people with mental illness

C. the elderly people who live alone

D. the elderly people who have to live apart from their pets

28. The first sentence of Para. 2 suggests ____D________.

A. touching and playing with a pet makes people nervous and anxious

B. pets can make people become quiet and attentive

C. people feel uncomfortable when they touch and play with a pet

D. people feel relaxed and hopeful when they touch and play with a pet

29. The dog helps Alan do the following EXCEPT ____D_______.

A. She helps her get dressed

B. She accompanies her to the hospital

C. She gets the newspaper for her

D. She picks up the phone for her

30. The sentence “when I was going to a comma” means that ____C_______.

A. when I got hungry

B. when I felt asleep

C. when I became unconscious

D. when I fell down on the floor

A funny thing happened on the way to the communication revolution: we stopped talking to each other.

I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his mobile phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and – poof! I was cut off as if I had become absent from the conversation.

The part was filled with people talking on their cell phones. They were passing people without looking at them, saying hello, noticing their babies or stopping to pat their dogs. It seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferred to human contact.

The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people feel absent. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver hushed the rest of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone. There we were, four friends driving down the high way, unable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make communication easier.

Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a setback to the closeness of human interaction. With e-mail and instant message over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.

As almost every contact between human beings gets automatic, the emotional distance index goes up. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-morning to the assistant when you can swipe your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to the clerk who lives in the neighborhood when you can put your card into the ATM?

More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really have time to talk. The technology devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.

I own a mobile phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail telephone, and an e-mail account. Giving them up isn’t a choice. They are great for what they are intended to

do. It’s their unintended results that make me upset. What good is all this gee-whiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out “Gee whiz”?

31. The author’s experience of walking in a park with a friend recently made him feel ___B_______.

A. unhappy B. funny C. sunny D. wonderful

32. According to the author, human contact in a park means ___C_______.

A. looking at each other and saying hello when passing

B. noticing their babies and stopping to pat their dogs

C. talking on the mobile phone and getting connected with the other people

D. both A and B

33. According to the author, the more connected we get in communications technology, the ___C_____ we are.

A. more automatic B. easier C. more disconnected D. closer

34. What are the examples the author gives to explain his idea that every advance in communications technology is a setback to the closeness of human interaction?____D_____

A. With e-mail and instant message over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another.

B. With voice mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.

C. If his mom has a question, he just leaves the answer on her machine.

D. All of the above

35. What is the unintended result of communication technology, according to the author?__B_______

A. It makes communication easier and conversation possible everywhere/

B. It actually creates a distance between people instead of bringing them together.

C. It makes every contact between human beings automatic and makes people feel connected.

D. It makes human contacts limitless with electronic voices everywhere.

The ancient Olympic Games were part of a religious festival in honour of the Greek god Zeus, the father of all Greek gods and goddesses. The festival and games were held in Olympia, a religious sanctuary. The athletes came to Olympia from all parts of the Greek world, from as far as Spain in the west and Turkey in the east.

The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 766 BC when Koroibos, a cook from the city of Elis, won a 200-metre-long race. They took place for a period of 617 years until the last games were held in AD 393.

In the ancient games, athletes received prizes worth large amounts of money. In fact the word “athlete” is an ancient Greek word, meaning “one who competes for a prize”. Although women did not compete in the games, there was a separate festival held at the same time in honour of Hera, wife of Zeus. At this festival unmarried girls competed in foot races.

The marathon was not an event of the ancient Olympic Games. The marathon is a modern event that was first introduced in the Olympic Games in 1896. It was named after a village called Marathon where the Persians were defeated by a small Greek army. The news of the victory was brought to Athens by soldier, who ran the 26 miles from the village of Marathon to the capital. 26 miles was therefore adopted as the distance of the modern marathon race.

The Olympic flag was introduced in 1908 and carries the symbol of five linked rings. Which represent the five continents --- Africa, America, Asia, Australasia and Europe. The Olympic flame was first carried in the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. There was no torch relay in the ancient Olympic Games. The first torch relay in the modern Olympic Games was staged in Berlin in 1936.

36. The ancient Greeks held the first Olympic Games in 617 BC.（F）

37. The ancient Greeks held the Olympic Games for 393 years. (F)

38. They did not allow women to compete in the ancient Olympic Games.(T)

39. They first used the Olympic flag in 1908. (T)

40. Both the Olympic Games and the Marathon Race are very popular for old and young people in many countries of the world. ( F)
