The 71st annual Boston Marathon was held on April 19, 1967. This day was filled with freezing rain,
snow and strong winds. However, for one runner named Kathrine Switzer, the weather conditions were the least of her worries. Kathrine was the first and only registered female runner in the marathon and she wanted to prove (证明) something.
The first few miles were a piece of cake for Kathrine. Then around mile four, she realized someone was
going after her. She turned around and was startled to see an angry face just inches away. It was the race director (赛事总监), Jock Semple.
“Get out of my race and give me those numbers!” Jock shouted. As he said this, he caught hold of Kathrine’s arm and tried pulling her race numbers off her sweatshirt. Although Kathrine was so shocked and terrified, she struggled to break free.
Kathrine felt awful. She thought about quitting, but soon she knew that wasn’t a choice. “If I quit, nobody would ever believe that women had the ability to run 26-plus miles. If I quit, everybody would say it was a show. If I quit, it would set women’s sports back, way back, instead of forward.”
While all this thinking was going on, Kathrine continued, until she found herself nearing the finish line. Although several reporters were waiting there, none of them cheered. Kathrine completed the race in a time of 4 hours and 20 minutes. The race was over, but her determination to change was just beginning.
She played a major part in getting women officially accepted into the Boston marathon in 1972. Her effort also opened up marathon in Olympic Games for women. Her number 261 on that historic day in Boston has also become a symbol of fearlessness for millions of women worldwide.
What did Kathrine hope to achieve in the 71st Boston Marathon
A. Being a registered runner. B. Proving women’s ability in sport.
C. Winning the competition. D. Proving it was a piece of cake to run 26-plus miles.
Why did Jock Semple go after Kathrine
A. To follow her pace. B. To defeat her in the race.
C. To make her quit. D. To remind her of the rules.
What is mainly discussed about Kathrine in the last paragraph
A. Her leadership. B. Her fame( 名 声 ). C. Her popularity. D. Her influence.
Which of following best describes Kathrine according to the passage
A. Caring. B. Responsible. C. Adventurous. D. Determined.
C
Two friends have an argument over small things that breaks up their friendship forever. Such sad events happen again and again in high schools. So why aren’t students taught to deal with conflict
First of all, students need to realize that conflict can not be avoided, but it doesn’t mean the happening of violence. However, a report shows that violence often happens between teenagers because of a small insult (侮辱). For example, when one student eats a sandwich each lunchtime, it may lead to someone else’s insult, because he or she was thought to be unwilling to try new things. In turn, it can lead to violence.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can stay calm. Feeling calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Insulting words only add fuel to the emotional fire. On the other hand, soft words can put out the fire.
After both sides have calmed down, they can apply another key strategy for conflict management: listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen.
Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. Instead of finding out what’s wrong with the other side, they should concentrate on what the real problem is and what both sides are trying to achieve. For example, the student being insulted for a sandwich can ask themselves questions such as “What do I really want What am I afraid of ” rather than get angry. As the real problem becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller.
There will always be conflict in schools. Learning to manage conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict management is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
This passage is mainly about .
A. the lives of school children B. the cause of arguments in schools
C. how to deal with school conflicts D. how to avoid youth conflicts
From Paragraph 2 we can learn that .
violence is more likely to happen at lunchtime
the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
students tend to argue and fight easily
a small conflict can lead to violence
The underlined phrase “add fuel to the emotional fire” in paragraph 3 probably means .
A. calm down two sides B. help put out the fire
C. cause physical violence D. cause more anger between two sides
D
Not only does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet, but it also causes pollution, wastes energy (能源), and surprisingly wastes water. Only 23% of the plastic in America ends up in recycling bins (回收垃圾箱), meaning over $ 1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently, Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho.
Ooho is designed for large outdoor events where a large number plastic bottles are used and frequently left behind as litter. It’s a kind of convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunk or eaten. To drink it, you can either get rid of the membrane(膜)or tear (撕开) a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. It’s completely tasteless so you needn’t worry about any taste.
The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials (材料) that are needed to make Ooho. The price hasn’t been decided yet, but it costs about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. The team has also been selling Ooho water bottles in London for the past six months.
Ooho is catching many people’s attention and has raised over $1 million in only three days. It’s mostly being sold at events to interest the buyers while the production machine is getting up and running. It’s quickly making a rise, so keep an eye on these bottles of the future.
How is most plastic in America dealt with
A. It is thrown away as rubbish. B. It is reused as new energy.
C. It is buried under the ground. D. It is applied to new technology.
What can we know about the Ooho
It plans to be sold at a very low price.
It has some advantages over plastic bottles.
Most people in London use Ooho instead of plastic bottles.
Suitable materials of making Ooho are hard to find.
What’s the author’s attitude towards Ooho’s future
A. Doubtful. B. Uninterested. C. Positive. D. Worried.
The article might be written for .
A. Scientists. B. Experts. C. Environmentalists. D. The public.

写作范文
Dear Jack,
Sorry to learn that you are not feeling well recently. As for how to keep slim and fit, I do have some useful
suggestions.
As we all know, exercise is important for anyone who wants to be healthy. Joining a sports club will
help you form a good habit of regular exercise. Besides, it is highly recommended to go on a diet. If you find
it hard, make a detailed and actionable plan and carry it out. For example, quit dessert after meals and choose
smaller plates and bowls. What is the most important is enough sleep. As a teenager, 8 hours of sleep a day
is the least to keep you fit. What’s more, try not to stay up till after 11 o’clock at night.
No pains, no gains. If you follow my advice, you will soon find all this is worth your effort. Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua

W: It’s only half a year. But you won’t have to worry about me while I’m driving the new car.
M: Teenagers! What do they think of next
(Text 9)
W: To start with, tell me about your education, please.
M: All right. I shall graduate from Columbia University of Foreign Studies next year. I major in international
trade.
W: Are you single or married
M: I’m still single. I’d rather secure my career before settling down in a family.
W: That’s the kind of man we are looking for. Our promotion work needs much travel. So, do you mind
many business trips There will be six to ten times travelling abroad a month.
M: Six to ten Oh, that is indeed…
W: OK. So I would say this work is indeed demanding.
M: Er…I think it will be a challenge for me, but I am glad to take it.
W: It has been pleasant talking with you. We’ll inform you of our final decision within three days.
M: Thank you, Mrs Hudson, for your interview with me. I hope to see you soon.
W: Goodbye.

M: Now, class, please be quiet. I have an announcement to make. Tomorrow we are going on a field trip to
the countryside by bike. We are going to meet at the school gate at 7 o'clock in the morning and then leave
for the countryside. There we will camp in the forest and observe a lot of animals. After various team
activities and competitions, some of us will also have the chance to ride a horse. If you wish, you can also
go fishing or boating, although you may need to pay some extra fees. There are also some pieces of advice
that you need to take. Safety comes first. Stay away from the thick part of the forest, because there are
some wild animals there. Also, do not bring matches and make a fire in the forest, because if something
is lit, you may cause a wildfire. Do not throw litter about. Let’s have fun tomorrow and also be safe.
