The beginning of a Frank Sinatra song drifted across the dance floor and I knew my dad would call out and request that, which for most people is very 1 .
As he walked towards me to ask for the first 2 , I could see there were 3  in his eyes. I grasped the side of my chair, 4 myself up with my arms, and grabbed the two metal sticks which keep me 5 as I stood to take his hand.
It took all my will to 6 my own tears and inside a voice kept  7 : “Don’t fall over, Martine.” We grabbed each other and in some way shuffled（穿梭）out a dance for the whole of the song.
For my dad, it was a turning point. He had 8  his friends on his 70th birthday he would lead his daughter in the first dance, 9 he had done so many times before. Almost a year after the suicide bomb on the London Underground train which blew 10 both my legs above the knee, I had managed to realize his 11 . Like so much that has happened over the last 12 months, there was something 12 about the moment.

Psychologically, I am a different person. I am very body conscious. When I go out I am 16 that children will make fun of me on my artificial legs. In my wheelchair I cover my lower half with a blanket  17  what remains of my body draws 18  glances.
Despite my brave claims of what I would do when I left the hospital in March, the reality is that I will  19  be able to do many things. I thought I would be able to wear my artificial legs all day, to run, to go out alone. But that is just not possible.

三、阅读理解
A
I grew up in a small town. My father raised chickens and ran a construction company. I was barely 10 years old when my dad gave me the responsibility of feeding the chickens and cleaning up the stable. He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace, I washed dishes and cooked from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm and then went on stage and sang until 2:00 in the morning．It wasn’t long before I became known as a singing cook．I had been rejected so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged. One night, a woman executive from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing. When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call—Warner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal．Soon after, I released my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2 million copies. My best efforts had gone into every job I’ve ever held. It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man．Knowing that I had done my best filled me with pride．I still feel that way today, even though I have become a well-known singer．

About 1966 or so, a NASA (美国航空航天局) team doing work for the Apollo moon mission took the astronauts near Tuba City. There the landscape of the Navajo Reservation (保留地) looks very much like the lunar surface. Among all the trucks and large vehicles were two large figures that were dressed in full lunar space suits. Nearby a Navajo shepherd and his son were watching the strange creatures walk about, occasionally being watched over by other NASA workers. The two Navajo people were noticed and approached by the NASA people．Since the shepherd and his son did not know English, they asked the NASA people who the strange creatures were. The NASA people told them that they were just men that were getting ready to go to the moon. The shepherd became very excited and asked if he could send a message to the moon with the astronauts.
The NASA officials thought this was a great idea so they provided a tape recorder. After the man gave them his message, they asked his son to translate. His son would not.
Later they tried a few more people on the reservation to translate and every person they asked would chuckle and then refuse to translate. Finally, with cash in hand someone translated the message.
“Watch out for these guys, they have come to take your land!”

C. got on the modern trucks and large vehicles for fun
D. tried to say something to the moon creatures

A. he had trouble in understanding his father
B. the words his father used were too difficult to be translated
C. his father was sending a warning against the NASA people

In summer, millions of people will head for the beach. And while the ocean can be a great place to swim and play, it may also be useful in another way．Some scientists think that waves could help make electricity．
“Have you ever been on a surfboard or boat and felt yourself being lifted up by a wave? Or have you jumped in the water and felt the energy as waves crashed over you?” asked Jamie Taylor of the Wave Energy Group at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. “There is certainly a lot of energy in waves.”
Scientists are working on using that energy to make electricity. Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean. “The winds start out by making little ripples (波纹) in the water, but if they keep on blowing , those ripples get bigger and bigger and turn into waves, ”Taylor said. “Waves are one of nature’s ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey. ”
When waves come towards the shore, people can set up dams or other barricades to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine. The turbine can then power an electrical generator.
The United States and a few other countries have started doing research on wave energy , and it is already being used in Scotland.
The resource is huge. We will never run out of wave power, besides, wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources, such as oil and coal.
Oceans cover three quarters of the earth’s surface．That would make wave power seem perfect for creating energy around the world．There are some drawbacks, however.
Jamie Taylor said that wave power still cost too much money. He said that its effects on animals in the sea were still unknown. Plus, wave power would get in the way of fishing and boat traffic.
With more research, however, “many of these problems might be overcome,” Taylor said. “Demand for energy to power our TVs and computers, drive our cars, and heat and cool our homes is growing quickly throughout the world. Finding more energy sources is very important, for traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may run out some day.”
In the future, when you turn on a light switch, an ocean wave could be providing the electricity!
8. Which of the following is NOT true? 
A. Wave power costs too much money．
B. Wave energy creates the same amount of pollution as other energy sources．
C. Wave power affects fishing and boat traffic．
D. Wave power may affect marine animals．
9. We can infer from the passage that ______．
A. finding new energy sources like wave energy is important
B. wave energy is a resource that will never run out and is used all over the world
C. wave power is perfect for creating energy around the world
D. wave power doesn’t create any pollution
10. The underlined word “drawbacks” probably means ______． 
A. regrets   B. adventures   C. disadvantages   D. difficulties
11. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Get Electricity by Waves． 
B. A Huge Resource of Energy．
C. Can Waves Make Electricity?   
D. The Disadvantages of Wave Energy．

Recycling : Beyond the Dustbin
Recycling is very important and necessary in today’s world. The most important reason for this is that human progress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things, and when people have many material possessions, they are bound to throw some of them away. 12
Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again, preventing
