My First Marathon（马拉松）
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was ＂not athletic＂.
The idea that I was ＂not athletic＂ stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: ＂GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!＂
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, I was starving!
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a ＂marathon winner＂.
24.A month before the marathon, the author ____________.
A. was well trained B. felt scared
C. lost hope D. made up his mind to run
25.Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year
A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.
B. To show he was not talented in sports.
C. To amuse the readers with a funny story.
D. To share a precious memory.
26.How was the author’s first marathon
A. He made it. B. He quit halfway.
C. He got the first prize. D. He walked to the end.
27.What does the story mainly tell us
A. A man owes his success to his family support.
B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. A winner is one with a great effort of will.
D. One is never too old to learn.
C
Stephen Hawking knew what he wanted to do by the time he was eight years old. His parents lived in London where his father was researching medicine. He did not want to follow his father as his parents hoped. Mathematics was not available at University College, so he did physics instead. Stephen was interested in studying the universe.
　　But when he was 21, he was told that he had ALS—an incurable nerve disease, which affects walking, speaking, breathing, swallowing, and many other things. The doctors predicted that he had only a few years to live. “The doctor’s grim(残忍的)prognosis(预测) made me determine to get the most from life I had previously taken for granted and life was no longer boring for me, ” Hawking said, speaking from his wheelchair through a computerized voice synthesizer.
　　In 1988, Stephen Hawking published a book called A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to Black Holes. The book tries to explain many of Hawking’s physical and mathematical ideas and calculations without using maths. The book became a best-seller. His later books were Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays and most recently in 2001, The Universe in a Nutshell. Of the three, the first one was made into a film in 1991.
　　Hawking says, “You have to be positive if you’re to get much sympathy or help. Nowadays, muscle power is out of date. What we need is mind power —and disabled people are as good at that as anyone else. ”
28. What career did Hawking’s parents want him to study in the university
A. Physics. 　　　　　　 B. Geography.
C. Medicine. D. Mathematics.
29. Which book of Stephen Hawking’s was made into a movie
A. The Universe in a Nutshell.
B. Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays.
C. On the Shoulders of Giants.
D. A Brief History of Time.
30. From the second paragraph, we can learn that before he knew his disease, Hawking _______.
A. focused his attention on his research
B. was very bored with life
C. always valued time
D. was interested in everything around him
31. According to Hawking, his disease _______.
A. stopped him from making greater achievements
B. stopped him from becoming more famous
C. made him focus all of his attention on research
D. caused him to lose hope of living
D
With summer drawing to a close, parents are helpless.
Camp's over. The kids' friends have left for warmer places. A trip to the pool doesn't bring the same excitement as it did in June. And so many families have no choice but to go for a trip to the amusement park.
Whether you're thinking of Six Flags, Sesame Place, Hersheypark or Dutch Wonderland, don't do it—you'll be sorry. Amusement parks—especially water parks—have never been more popular. More than 26 million people went to Six Flags last year. These parks bring out the worst in kids and parents alike. What starts out as a special treat ends up in disappointment and tears.
As soon as you get to the park, you pay a couple of hundred dollars for a family of four. Already, expectations are unrealistic as parents start to do the math. How many rides will I get for the money The answer一at least in August一is four.
That's because of the lines. Time stops as you stand in line leading to even the least exciting ride. Over and over we count the number of people in front of us, wondering how many more rounds there'll be before our turn. Then there are the other parents— some of whom seem to think the lines are part of the game.
At Dutch Wonderland last weekend, one father walked up to my kids and asked if they were in line. For five minutes, he had his daughter stand behind them. When I turned my head, he had her stand ahead of them. Then he did it to the kids next in line, too.
By the end of the day, you see mothers and fathers buy their kids ice cream again and again to ease the influences of the heat, disappointment and anger.
It's like they've forgotten—it was all the kids' idea in the first place.
32.Why are parents helpless
A.Their kids are having little fun.
B.They are not good at planning trips.
C.Their kids depend on them too much.
D.They are too busy to play with their kids.
33.What does the author think of the money spent by parents
A.It is not worth it.
B.It is good for the family.
C.It wouldn't be so much in August.
D.It is a waste for those poor at math.
34.Why did the father ask the author's kids whether they were in line
A.He was a polite person.
B.He couldn't find the line.
C.He wanted his kid to cut in line.
D.He wanted to teach them a lesson.
35.What would be the best title for the text
A.Behave well, little kids!
B.Mind your manners, parents!
C.Make your choices carefully
D.Keep away from amusement parks

Last Saturday, David was taking a walk in the park near his home when he noticed a woman with a boy of about eight years old. When David passed them, he heard the woman yell, "How stupid you are! You're good at nothing." David stopped and looked at the little boy. The boy said nothing. He just stood there, looking upset.
David was reminded of his English teacher Mrs. Brown in the middle school. After he entered the middle school, David lacked self-confidence because he was often made fun of by others. He was often told that he was good at nothing, which David believed. But one day it all changed.
One day, in an English writing class, Mrs. Brown asked them to read a novel. They were asked to write a new chapter of the novel after they finished reading the book. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didn't give it much thought. But the next day to his surprise, the comment "well done" from Mrs. Brown came into view the moment he turned to the page where the story was written.
When David read that, he almost burst into tears. He never expected to be praised one day. He suddenly gained some self-confidence.
That day after he returned home, he wrote a short story and gave it to Mrs. Brown the next morning. And again he was praised.
David became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs. Brown to read them and correct them for him. Mrs. Brown always corrected them for him. Mrs. Brown always corrected the mistakes he had made and gave him good advice to improve them. One year later, David joined the school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who lacked self-confidence. He gained his confidence and was hopeful about his future.
He succeeded in entering college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from college, he had his first book published. With some more books coming out, he became famous as a writer in his country. And he owed his success to Mrs. Brown's encouragement. Without her encouragement, his life might be very different now.
注意：1续写的词数应为150左右。
2请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

M: Here in the USA, college life can be as interesting as you can imagine. It is time to experience new things and studies alone do not satisfy the students. This is where out-of-class activites come in. These activities range from clubs, organizations and groups to sports. They are all directed by students themselves. Each organization has an advisor, but student members plan all activities and events. In a university there are as many as hundreds of student organizations for students to choose from. Each student is sure to have a club or group that fits his needs or interests. The clubs range from religion to community service, sports and hobbies. For example, there are ski clubs, yoga clubs, dance clubs, etc. If you cannot find a club that you are interested in, you can have an idea for a new club, and form one youself. All you have to do is to pass the idea through the school nd find an advisor and if the school agrees, you’ll have a new student organization!
Clubs and organizations help students explore their interests, which may turn into lifelong hobbies or even become their careers in life.

Dear Jenny,
The scientist I admire most is Tu Youyou, who was born in 1930 in Zhejiang Province. She is well-known because she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2015 for her great contributions to medicine.
Since graduating from university, she has devoted her time and energy to discovering a cure for malaria, a deadly disease in the past. After working hard with her co-workers for years, she finally found artemisinin, which has saved millions of lives around the world.
Tu Youyou is the first Chinese scientist to win the Nobel Prize for science. Her winning the reward shows that traditional Chinese medicine is of great value. She is such a great role model that I admire her most.
Yours,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy. He went to the woman, who immediately recognized him because she bad read his books and seen his pictures. David started to chat with her. He told her that what she had said to her boy was not appropriate. Then he told about the encouragement he once got from Mrs. Brown. In the end, he said, "I couldn't have become a writer if I had believed I was good at nothing."
Paragraph 2:
The mother was ashamed when she heard that. She realized that she shouldn't have called her son stupid , which would make him lose confidence in himself. So she said, "Thank you for your advice. I'll never say such things to him again. Instead, I'll find out what he's good at and encourage him." The woman then left with the boy. Looking at the back of the boy, David felt relieved, hoping his action could make some difference to the boy.
