greatest role of actor ChristopherReeves life was as a champion of sufferers of spinal cord(脊椎)injuries and an advocate of stem cellresearch.Unlike the man of steel,he wasnt faster than a speeding bullet,more powerful than an engine and hecouldnt leap tall buildings in a single bound.But the courage and determination Reeve displayed in trying toB.The Nature Park.D.The Pyramid.overcome his paralysis(瘫痪)from a 1995 horse-riding accident went beyond any of the achievements of thecomic book hero.“He became a real-life Superman.His heroism,his courage was extraordinary,”Colin Blakemore,thechief executive of Britains Medical Research Council said.“Like many people who suffer some terribleinjuries,Christopher Reeve was totally changed by that experience and brought the kind of energy andenthusiasm that made him successful as a film star to an entirely different issue,with huge effect.”Reeve,52,died of heart failure on October 10,2004 after having treatment for an infected pressurewound without realizing his dream of walking again.But in the nine years since his accident,he made personalprogress to regain respect and admiration,established the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation,anon-profit research organization,and used his fame to raise millions of dollars for research into spinal cordinjuries.He also provided hope and inspiration to other patients and made speeches to support scientists to beallowed to conduct stem cell research in the hopes of eventually curing paralysis and other illnesses such asdiabetes and Alzheimers and Parkinsons disease.“He has been our champion.If you think of spinal injuries,you automatically recall a picture ofChristopher Reeve,”said Paul Smith,executive director of the Spinal Injuries Association in England.It isbecause of Reeve that spinal cord injuries and stem cell research are so widely discussed,according to Smith.The fact that it happened to Reeve showed it can affect anyone,even Superman.Reeve did not live long enough to see whether stem cell research could help restore movement to theparalyzed.The research is still in its early days and no one knows what advances it may bring.24.Which of the

obstacles27.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.A Fighter of Spinal Cord InjuriesB.A Real Hero in Film2C.A Forever SupermanD.A Struggling LifeC C“Weve had enough of these boys messing about.”This is what Anna Soubry,UKs former businessminister,said earlier last month,offering her backing of Theresa May in the running to become the UKs nextprime minister.According to a new list compiled by Agence France Presse(AFP),the worlds 10 most powerful womenincludes the US first female presidential nominee(提名者),Hillary Clinton,head of the US Federal Reserve,Janet Yellen,and Director-General of the World Health Organization,Margaret Chan.There is somethinginteresting with the AFP listA majority of the 10 women are over 60,the rough age when some womenbecome grandmothers.According to The Atlantic,the reasons behind the phenomenon may include that todays older women arebetter educated and experienced than any generations before.It is also because of societys changingperceptions(观念)about what women can achieveafter being held back in their middle age raising kids andrunning domestic lives,older women are now more likely to start again instead of retiring into a peaceful lifeof cooking and gardening.Also,according to the UK s Conservative peer,Baroness Jenkin of Kennington,people are growing tobe more trusting toward female leaders compared to their male counterparts,especially during periods ofinstability.“They feel that at a time of turmoil(混乱),a woman will be more practical in their approach,morewilling to listen to voices around the table,less likely to have an instantly aggressive approach to things,”shetold The Guardian.In fact,this changing atmosphere in gender equality is spreading all over the world and across women ofall ages.When US gymnast Simone Biles sealed four golds and a bronze,she said,“Im not the nex t Usain Boltor Michael Phelps.Im the first Simone Biles.”28.According to the AFP list,which of the following is true?A.Hillary Clinton ranks first in the list.B.Grandmothers are more likely to be leaders.C.The first female president nominee is from the US.D.Most of the powerful women are of similar age.29.What does Soubry mean by saying“Weve had enough of these boys messing about.”?A.The boys always make things messy.B.The boys often make troubles for others.C.She wants to support women to take power.D.She wants to clear up the mess created by men.30.According to BaronessJenkin,compared with men,women are _.A.better educatedC.more powerful31.Why does the author take Simone Biles for example?A.To show she is the greatest athlete in the US.B.To show the gender equality in sports field.C.To show women are better than men in gymnastics.D.To show todays women are better educated and experienced.D DOnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk,I went to a friend.He looked at me for amoment,and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice Ive ever had:Be bold and brave and mighty(强大的)forces will come to your aid.Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past,it was seldom because I hadtried and failed.It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all.On the other hand,whenever I had plunged into deep water,forced by courage or circumstance,I had always been able to swimuntil I got my feet on the ground again.Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you can eat.And there is nothing mysterious about themighty forces.They are potential powers we possess:energy,skill,sound judgment,creative ideasevenphysical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly,those mighty forces are spiritual ones.But they are more important than physical ones.Acollege classmate of mine,Tim,was an excellent football player,even though he weighed much less than theaverage player.“In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player,who had nothing but mebetween him and our goal lin e,”said Tim.“I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threwmyself at that guy like a bulletand stopped him cold.”Boldnessa willingness to extend yourself to the extremeis not one that can be acquired overnight.Butit can be taught to children and developed in adults.Confidence builds up.Surely,there will be setbacks(挫折)and disappointments in life;boldness in itself is no guarantee of success.But the person who tries to dosomething and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.So,always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities and youll find your abilities are greater than youever dreamed.32.Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?A.He faced huge risks.B.He lacked mighty forces.D.Failure blocked his way to success.B.Act slightly above your abilities.C.Fear prevented him from trying.A.Swallow more than you can digest.33.What is the implied meaning of the underlined part in Paragraph 3?C.Develop more mysterious powers.D.Learn to make creative decisions.34.What was especially important for Tims successful defense in the football game?A.His physical strength.C.His real fear.3B.more sincereD.more open-mindedB.His basic skill.D.His spiritual force.35.What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A.To encourage people to be courageous.B.To advise people to build up physical power.C.To tell people the ways to guarantee success.D.To recommend people to develop more abilities.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Tips to Increase Your ProductivityWant to get
