第二部分 阅读理解

第一节 (共8小题；每小题2分，满分16分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

Many of us have heard of the saying: everything is possible if you can just believe．But few of us really know the power of faith and perseverance（坚定）． South African swimmer Natalie du Tiot embodies（体现）those virtues．

Du Tiot, 24, became the first swimmer to compete in both the Olympic Games and the Paralympics （残奥会）in Beijing．Although she finished 16th in the tough 10km marathon in the

3

able-bodied Games, she has collected three golds in the Paralympics so far．

One of the most successful disabled athletes of all time, Natalie du Tiot was already a promising swimmer when she lost her leg in a motorcycle accident in 2001, at just 17．

―There are a lot of dark moments,‖ she said, ―There are some days when I cry．But I try to remember that better days are ahead．You just go on．‖ Within a few months, she was back in the swimming pool．

She still completes and still succeeds．The only difference is she has switched to longer events—from 200m and 400m individual medley to 800m and 1,500m freestyle—to make up for her loss of speed with only one leg．But she made no adjustment to her mental look（精神面貌）．

―Going out in the water, it feels as if there’s nothing wrong with me．It doesn’t matter if you look different．You’re still the same as everybody else because you have the same dream．‖

She is the owner of many world records, and she also won gold when competing against able-bodied swimmers in the 1,500m freestyle at the All African Games in 2007．

But there is no magic recipe（秘诀） for success．It all comes down to hard work and determination．―She is stubborn, which is good and bad,‖ said her coach Karoly Von Toros．―Good for the swimming, but bad for the coach．‖ There is a poem that hangs on her wall that reads: The tragedy （悲剧）of life does not lie in not reaching your goals; The tragedy of life lies in not having goals to reach for．

46．Natalie du Tiot is a vivid example that____________________． A．you are what you believe B．your biggest enemy is yourself C．results are not so important as the process D．you must set reasonable goals or you will fail

47．According to the text , Natalie du Tiot became________________． A．the first athlete to compete with able-bodied swimmers in the world B．the youngest disabled swimmer to break the world record in the 1,500m freestyle C．the youngese disabled swimmer to collect three golds in a single Paralympics D．the first swimmer to compete in both the Olympic Games and the Paralympics

48．Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Natalie du Tiot？ a．She won gold at the All Africa Games． b．She finished 16th in the tough 10km marathon in the Olympics c．She adjusted herself to long events． d．A motorcycle accident disabled her． A．cdab B．dcba C．dcab D．dacb 49．In dark moments it was_______________ that pushed her on． A．her coach B．her family C．hope and faith D．her love of

swimming

B

You’ve probably read the books. You’ve probably seen the movies. But have you heard the music ?

The latest Harry Potter news is that bands have been forming to play what is called ―wizard rock‖ or sometimes just ― wrock‖. The new kind of music began when Joe DeGeorge and his brother Paul decided that the

characters from Harry Potter would make a great band. Ron on guitar, Hermione on bass,

4

Hagrid on drums ( of course !) and Harry singing up front would make for an excellent group. In one day, the brothers wrote, rehearsed and performed six songs about life at Hogwarts, the boarding school that Harry and his friends went to. After the first performance, Paul decided that ―we’re Harry and the Potters.‖ People who like Harry Potter think wizard rock music is extremely impressive. The songs

can be funny, but the music is not a joke. It’s serious and serious business. Just as the DeGeorge brothers. They’ve played more than 500 shows in 49 states ( all but Hawaii ). They dress in Hogwards house colors, and their hit songs are inspired by characters from the books. The themes of their music are the same as the themes of Rowling’s books. Wizard rock is just one more spinoff(派生产品) in the Harry Potter craze. Two years after

J.K.Rowling published her last book in the series, Harry Potter popularity continues to grow. There are Potter conferences and Potter clubs that try to get kids and grown-ups to help fight hunger, for example. And the fact that they may do it while singing ―Wizard Chess‖ or ―Platform 9‖ makes those meetings fun.

50. Which of the following is TRUE about the DeGeorge brothers ? A. They are good at telling jokes. B. They are forming their own Potter club. C. The theme of their songs is love. D. They base their songs on Rowling’s books.

51. It can be inferred that wizard rock music mentioned in the passage is ___. A. romantic B. strange

C. popular D. quiet 52. The underlined word ―craze‖ in the last paragraph can be replaced by ___. A. enthusiasm B. pride

C. book D. film

53. The author’s attitude towards wizard rock might be that of ______. A. doubt B. unconcern C. tolerance

D. appreciation

第二节：(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。

Ａ. Articles make you rich.

B. Articles teach you to help others. C. Articles have many other uses. D. Articles organize your thoughts. E. Articles help develop your creativity. F. Articles increase your name recognition ___________

When you write a blog, you can just let it flow; you don’t really need a structure for many kinds of blogs. But when you write an article, you need a beginning and ending and several key points in between. In short, you need an outline, and that outline should organize your thoughts.

5

55. ____________

The first few articles you write and submit to online sites may not get a lot of attention. But as your list of articles grows and you reach ―expert status‖ on the top article sites, people will begin to notice. Your name will keep recognized and become linked with your topic. 56. _____________

Of course, it’s great to see a long list of your articles on the online article sites, but there are also many uses to recycle your material. For example, you can submit it to print trade magazines, combine it into booklets to give away or sell on your website, rework（修订） it as your blog posts, use it in a full-length book, and put it on a CD to give away as a promotional piece or to sell at the back of the room when you give a presentation. 57.. ______________

Besides being an effective marketing tool, articles you give you an opportunity to provide value for your readers. Once you begin to receive positive feedback on what you have written, you will realize that you are teaching, informing, and guiding others.. 58._____________

Every article presents a new challenge, including how to get the main points, how to convey information clearly and concisely, or how to draw the reader’s attention immediately and hold on to it until the last sentence. They make you more creative.
