An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him. I agreed. During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams. I spent over one hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me. When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.” Last summer I received a letter from Matthews parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick, My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I dont have long to live anymore. But I still smile as much as I can. I told you someday I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I will never get to do that. But I know Im a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me. Yours, Matthew21. The boy wanted to meet the author because _.A. he was interested in weight liftingB. he wanted to get a gold medalC. he admired the author very muchD. he wanted the author to know him22. We can infer from the passage that _.A. Matthew is a determined boyB. Rick used to have the same diseaseC. Matthew became a champion finallyD. Rick regarded Matthew as normal23. The boy refused the authors medal because _.A. he was not worthy of itB. he would not be pitied by othersC. he knew he would die soonD. he thought he himself could earn one in the futureBMany instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is good to learning and innovation（创新）. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual（随和的）professor is not necessarily a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a subordinate（从属的）position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority.Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructors role. A professor may have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for the submission（提交评判）of a paper（论文） or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. Students must realize that when a teachers role changes, they must appropriately adapt their behaviour and attitudes.24. Generally speaking, relationships between students and their professors are_.A. common B. friendly C. poor D. equal25. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Professors can set up good social relationship with students outside the classroom.B. In the classroom, professors should be in a position of authority.C. Professors may treat their students differently in evaluating school work.D. If a student has good relationship with a professor, hell still have to take an exam.26. A student must learn to change his behavior and attitude when _.A. the professor invites him to have coffee togetherB. he is in need of helpC. the professor changes his roleD. the professor gives him extra attention27. The main subject discussed in the text is “_”. A. changing relationshipB. the teacher-student relationshipC. professors authorityD. students positionsCEducation is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degree；they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor; we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our townsIn fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be ashamed of ones work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.28. The writer of the passage thinks that _.A. education can settle most of the worlds problemsB. free education for all probably leads to a perfect worldC. free education wont help to solve problemsD. all the social problems cant be solved by education29. The writer wants to prove that _.A. our society needs all kinds of jobsB. our society needs free education for all C. a farmer is more important than a professorD. work with hands is the most important30. The purpose of education is _.A. to choose officials for the countryB. to prepare children mainly for their future workC. to let everyone receive education fit for himD. to build a perfect world31. The passage tells us about _ of the education.A. the means B. the system C. the value D. the typeDIn the second half of each year, many powerful storms are born in the tropical(热带的)Atlantic and Caribbean seas（加勒比海）. Of these, only about half a dozen becomes the strong, circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that are called hurricanes, and several usually make their way to the coast. There they cause millions of dollars of damage, and bring death to large numbers of people. The great storms that hit the coast start as soft circling wind hundreds even thousands of miles out to sea. As they travel aimlessly over water warmed by the summer sun, they are carried westward by the southeast winds. When conditions are just right, warm, moist（潮湿）air flows in at the bottom of such a wind, moves upward through it and comes out at the top. In the process（过程）, the moisture in this warm air produces rain, and with it the heat is changed to energy in the form of strong winds. As the heat increases, the young hurricane begins to move in a counter-clockwise motion（逆时针运动）. The life of a hurricane is only about nine days, but it contains almost more power than we can imagine. The energy in the heat release（释放）by a hurricanes rainfall in a single day would satisfy the entire electrical needs of the United States for more than six months. Water, not wind, is the main source of death and destruction（毁灭）in a hurricane. A typical hurricane brings 6 to 12 inch downpours , causing sudden floods. Worst of all is the powerful movement of the sea the mountains of water moving toward the hurricane center. The water level rises as much as 15 feet above normal as it moves toward shore. 32. When is an ordinary tropical storm called a hurricane?A. When it begins in the Atlantic and Caribbean seas.B. When it hits the coastline. C. When it is more than 75 miles wide.D. When its winds reach 75 miles per hour. 33. What is the worst thing about hurricanes?A. The terrible effects of water.B. The heat they give off. C. That they last about nine days.D. Their strong winds. 34. Here the word “downpour” means _. A. heavy rainfall B. dangerous wavesC. the progress of water to the hurricane center D. the increasing heat35. Which statement about a hurricane is wrong?A. It travels more than 75 miles per hour.B. It usually stays about 9 days. C. It usually causes 6 to 12 inch downpours. D. It sometimes brings the sea water level to the height of 15 feet.第二节 （共5小题，每小题1分，满分5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，选项中有两项为多余选项。There is no doubt that obesity is one of the biggest problems that many men and women of all ages suffer from. 36 .
