Apart from this, studies are being carried out to harness(利用) usable wind energy produced by man-made technologies. One useful source identified by Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan about two years ago is a speeding train, which produces fierce wind that can be transformed into electricity. According to Pradhan’s proposal, with a few small improvements in existing trains running in Mumbai, the largest city in India, at least 10,000 megawatts(兆瓦) of electricity could be harvested each day. Building on this principle, designers Ale Leonetti Luparinia and Qian Jiang from Yanko Design have created a device(装置) called T-Box that harnesses wind energy from speeding trains. T-Box can be placed within the railway tracks. It is half-buried underground between the concrete sleepers(水泥枕木), which does not disturb the normal train operating at all. According to Yanko, around 150 T-Boxes can be fitted along a 1,000-meter railway track. A train running at a speed of 200 kph can produce winds blowing at 15 miles a second. Based on this calculation, 150 T-Boxes can produce 2.6 KWH of electricity per day. The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in last year’s Lite-On Awards and was exhibited last summer at the Xue Xue Institute in Taipei, Taiwan Province. Though the figures look impressive, it is important to remember that the design is still at a conceptual stage and hasn’t taken into account issues such as pieces of waste material produced by the device and the efforts and costs involved in the maintenance(维护) of the device. We can expect the technology to see the light of the day only after it clears these issues. If so, rail travel, one of the greenest forms of travel, will become greener and more energy-efficient. 41. What can we learn about T-Box? A. It will be fitted on the trains. B. It is based on Pradhan’s idea. C. It can turn electricity into light. D. It was invented by an Indian scientist. 42. How much electricity can be produced per day by T-Boxes along a railway track of 100km? A. 260 KWH. B. 2.6 KWH. C. 150 KWH. D. 1.5 KWH. 43. It can be concluded from the last two paragraphs that ______. A. T-Box has proved to be effective in harvesting wind B. the maintenance of T-Box will be costly C. there is much to do about T-Box D. T-Box will come into use soon 44. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. The Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan invented the speeding train. B. The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in Lite-On Awards last year. C. Rail travel has become one of the energy-efficient technologies in the world. D. The India harvests 10,000 megawatts of electricity each day on average. 45. The passage is mainly written to _______. A encourage more people to travel by train B. explain the advantages of electricity C. tell readers how to save energy and money D. introduce a new invention to readers 【答案】41. B 42. A 43. C 44. B 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了Santosh Pradhani的T-Box 有极好的性能，很多方面都令人印象深刻，还赢得了一枚银牌光宝奖并展出，但是设计还处于概念阶段，还有很大的改进空间。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“One useful source identified by Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan about two years ago is a speeding train, which produces fierce wind that can be transformed into electricity.(大约两年前，印度发明家Santosh Pradhan发现了一个有用的资源，那就是一列高速行驶的火车，它产生的强风可以转化为电力。)”和第三段“According to Pradhan’s proposal, with a few small improvements in existing trains running in Mumbai, the largest city in India, at least 10,000 megawatts(兆瓦) of electricity could be harvested each day.(根据普拉丹的提议，对印度最大城市孟买运行的现有列车进行一些小的改进，每天至少可以收获1万兆瓦的电力。)”可知这个T-Box的理念是以Pradhan的提议为基础的。应选B。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“According to Yanko, around 150 T-Boxes can be fitted along a 1,000-meter railway track.(根据Yanko的说法，大约150个T- box可以安装在1000米的铁路轨道上。)”以及第六段中的“Based on this calculation, 150 T-Boxes can produce 2.6 KWH of electricity per day.(按此计算，150台T - box每天可生产2.6千瓦时的电力。)”可知，T- box在100公里的铁路上每天能产生260千瓦时电力。故选A。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Though the figures look impressive, it is important to remember that the design is still at a conceptual stage and hasn’t taken into account issues such as pieces of waste material produced by the device and the efforts and costs involved in the maintenance(维护) of the device.( 虽然这些数字看起来令人印象深刻，但重要的是要记住，该设计仍处于概念阶段，并没有考虑到设备产生的废物碎片和设备维护所涉及的努力和成本等问题。)”和最后一段“We can expect the technology to see the light of the day only after it clears these issues. If so, rail travel, one of the greenest forms of travel, will become greener and more energy-efficient.(我们可以期待这项技术只有在解决了这些问题之后才会出现曙光。如果是这样的话，作为最环保的出行方式之一的铁路出行将会变得更环保、更节能。)”可推断，最后两段作者是在讲述T-Box这种设备的一些问题和前景。故选C。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第六段中的“The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in last year’s Lite-On Awards and was exhibited last summer at the Xue Xue Institute in Taipei, Taiwan Province.( T-Box的设计在去年的Lite-On奖中获得银牌，并于去年夏天在台湾台北的Xue Xue研究所展出。)”可知，T-Box的设计获得了去年Lite-On奖的银牌。故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了Santosh Pradhani的T-Box 有极好的性能，很多方面都令人印象深刻，还赢得了一枚银牌奖并展出，但是设计还处于概念阶段，还有很大的改进空间。所以文章主要是向读者介绍了T-Box这种新发明。故选D。 C I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girlfriends. Little did I realized that casualness would certainly lead to loss. Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted FAIL in more than half the subjects. I didn't care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me. Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me,“ son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.” It hit me like a roundhouse kick from Bruce Lee. I was jolted (震摇) out of my bones! I couldn't comprehend how to pay off the debts that I had accumulated in college. I owed everybody money: the grocery store, the bars, the restaurants, my friends, ect. I was living a life filled with credit. When I came back to college, I knew if I didn’t change the way I live my life I wouldn't be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, drastic changes. I quitted smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books. One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude(优等成绩). Life was never the same again. This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I'm about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it! 46. Father decided to cut the author's allowance when he found his son _________. A. drank with friends B. made girl friends C. failed in most subjects D. had the habit of smoking 47. The author didn't care about his study until _________. A. he entered the engineering school B. he was in heavy debt he couldn't bear C. he decided to give up smoking D. his allowance was cut in half 48. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means that the author _________. A. paid off his debt and life wasn't hard for him any more B. removed his habits and didn't lead a casual life C. never hung out with his friends but study all day D. began to live a happy life due to his good grades 49. Which of the following is TRUE? A. The author did well in making good friends in the school. B. The author made great progress with the help of his friends. C. Students tend to earn money for college expenses in America. D. Students were encouraged to do part-time jobs in Indian schools. 50. The author's purpose of writing this article is _________. A. to introduce his university life to teenage readers B. to those lazy students to study hard at school C. to show you can overcome any difficulty if you take action D. to call on the readers not to develop bad habits in college 【答案】46. D 47. D 48. B 49. C 50. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者通过讲述自己的亲身经历，从一开始对学习的毫不在乎到后来的努力学习，获得好的成绩，告诉我们，如果你采取行动，你就可以克服任何困难。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me,“ son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.”(后来有一天，我爸爸发现了我吸烟的习惯。他发脾气了，但他只是告诉我，“儿子，从现在起，你的零用钱被削减了一半。”)”可知，当父亲发现儿子有吸烟的习惯时，他决定削减作者的零用钱。故选D项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me,“ son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.”(后来有一天，我爸爸发现了我吸烟的习惯。他发脾气了，但他只是告诉我，“儿子，从现在起，你的零用钱被削减了一半。”)以及根据第四段“When I came back to college, I knew if I didn’t change the way I live my life I wouldn't be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, drastic changes. I quitted smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books.( 当我回到大学时，我知道如果我不改变我的生活方式，我就无法还清所有人的债务。所以我决定做些改变，剧烈的改变。我戒了烟，断绝了和那些把我引入歧途的朋友的联系，开始去图书馆闲逛，阅读我的工程类书籍。)”可知，直到他的零花钱减半，作者才开始关心他的学习。故选D项。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude( 优等成绩)(一年后，我从一个悲惨的失败者变成了优等生)”以及根据This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large.( 这件事让我知道，任何事情都是可能的，如果你采取行动，做一些事情，无论大小。)”可推知，最后一段划线的句子意味着作者改掉了他的习惯，不再过着随意的生活。故选B项。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me.( 你看，我在印度学习，不像在美国，学生们要自己负担教育费用，我父亲资助了我。)”可知，在美国，学生倾向于挣钱支付大学费用。ABD选项与原文实意不符。故选C项。 50题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段中“This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I'm about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it!( 这件事让我知道，任何事情都是可能的，如果你采取行动，做一些事情，无论大小。直到今天，当我觉得快要失败或放弃的时候，它仍然激励着我。它提醒我，我可以做到！)”可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是表明如果你采取行动，你可以克服任何困难。故选C项。 D How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child — things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents, he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society. 51. According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that _______. A. only children are interested in life B. life for a child is comparatively easy C. a child is always loved whatever he does D. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return 52. After a child grows up, he ________. A. will have little time playing B. has to be successful in finding a job C. can still ask for help in time of trouble D. should be able to take care of himself 53. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. People are often satisfied with their life. B. Life is less interesting for old people. C. Adults are freer to do what they want to do. D. Adults should no longer rely on others. 54. The main idea of the passage is _________. A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard C. childhood is the more enjoyable time in one’s life D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life 55. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss _________. A. examples of successful young men B. how to build up one’s position in society C. pleasures and pains of old people D. what to do when one has problems in life 【答案】51. B 52. D 53. A 54. D 55. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要论述一个人如果能很好地利用生命中的每一个年龄，他就是最幸福的。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.(童年是一个几乎没有责任让生活变得困难的时期。如果一个孩子有好的父母，无论他做什么，他都会得到喂养、照顾和关爱。他不可能在一生中再次得到如此多的东西而不做任何回报)”推知，作者认为孩子的生活相对容易。故选B。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. (当一个年轻人开始自己谋生时，他就不能再指望别人为他支付衣食住行，如果他想生活得舒适，他就必须工作)”可知，孩子长大后就应该有能力照顾自己。故选D。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. (人们经常听到孩子们希望自己长大，老人们希望自己再次年轻)”可知，人们并不总是对自己的生活感到满意。A项“人们通常对他们的生活感到满意”与原文内容不符。故选A。 【54题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.(每个年龄段都有它的快乐和痛苦，最幸福的人是享受每个年龄段给予他的东西而不在无用的悔恨中浪费时间的人)”并结合下文讨论儿童和年轻人生活中的快乐和痛苦可知，本文主要为了表明一个人如果能很好地利用生命中的每一个年龄，他就是最幸福的。故选D。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.(每个年龄段都有它的快乐和痛苦，最幸福的人是享受每个年龄段给予他的东西而不在无用的悔恨中浪费时间的人)”并结合第二、三段分别讨论儿童和年轻人生活中的快乐和痛苦推知，下文应讨论老人生活中的快乐和痛苦。故选C。 第三部分：写作 第一节： 阅读表达 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题. She had to pack up her bedroom in Virgina Beach, where she lived with her mother, two sisters and brother. She had to say goodbye to her two dogs, who used to sleep in her bed, and to the beach, where she loved to ride waves on her boogie board. But it was time to take the leap, however, heartbreaking and awkward it would be. Even at 14, Douglas knew that. So off she went about 1,200 miles to West Des Moines, Lowa, to train with a coach from China and live with a white family she had never been met. When she arrived, Douglas thought that she must be the only black person in the state. When she woke up, she always said,“ This isn't my bed set. Where am I?” Liang Chow, who had coached the Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, transformed Douglas into one of the best gymnasts in the world, helping her skyrocket from an average member of the national team to the top of the sport. And a couple with four young daughters became her second family, nurturing her in lown while her real family supported her from afar. That move also was important in Douglas's making history. By winning the Olympic all- round title, she became the first black woman to do so. She also became the fourth American woman to win the all- round, following Mary Lou Retton in 1984, Carly Patternson in 2004 and Nastia Liukin in 2008. Douglas won, scoring 62.232 points, and led the competition from beginning to end. Viktoria Komova, who sobbed into her coach's chest when she learned she had lost, won the silver, with 61.973 points. Aliya Mustafina, the 2010 world all- round champion, won the bronze with 59.566 points. The other American in the competition, Aly Raisman finished fourth after losing a tiebreaker(决胜局) to Mustafina. Douglas said she had felt confident all along that she would win.“ It was just an amazing feeling,” she said, giggling(咯咯笑).“I was just like, believe, don't fear, believe.” After sacrificing(牺牲) so much, she had no other choice but to push forward, she said. 56. Why did Douglas leave her home at 14?( no more than 10 words) _____________________________________________ 57. How did she feel when Douglas first arrived at the new home?( no more than 5 words) _____________________________________________ 58. What does the underlined word“ skyrocket” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?( no more than 3 words) _____________________________________________ 59. Is Douglas the first American woman who won all- round? Why do you think so? ( no more than 15 words) _____________________________________________ 60. What do you think of Douglas from the story? Give your reasons.( no more than 20 words) _____________________________________________ 【答案】56. Because she needed training to be a gymnast. 57. She felt uneasy. 58. Rise rapidly. 59. No, she isn’t. Because she is the first black woman to do so. 60. She is strong - minded. Because after she won the game, she said “I was just like, believe, don't fear, believe.” 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了道格拉斯，她是美国的第一位赢得奥运全能冠军的黑人，她在十四岁的时候就离开了家，去接受成为一个体操运动员的训练，她在赢得冠军之后也没有骄傲。 【56题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第三段中“So off she went about 1,200 miles to West Des Moines, Lowa, to train with a coach from China and live with a white family she had never been met.( 于是，她前往1200英里外的爱荷华州西得梅因（West Des Moines），跟随一位来自中国的教练训练，住在一个从未谋面的白人家庭。)”以及第四段中“Liang Chow, who had coached the Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, transformed Douglas into one of the best gymnasts in the world, helping her skyrocket from an average member of the national team to the top of the sport.( 曾指导过奥运会金牌得主肖恩·约翰逊（Shawn Johnson）的周亮（Liang Chow），把道格拉斯变成了世界上最好的体操运动员之一，帮助她从国家队的一名普通队员飙升到这项运动的顶级选手。)”可推知，道格拉斯在十四岁时离开家是因为她需要接受成为一个体操运动员的训练。故答案是：Because she needed training to be a gymnast. 【57题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第三段中“When she arrived, Douglas thought that she must be the only black person in the state. When she woke up, she always said,“ This isn't my bed set. Where am I?”(当她到达时，道格拉斯认为她一定是这个州唯一的黑人。当她醒来时，她总是说，“这不是我的床。我在哪儿？”)”可推知，当道格拉斯第一次来到新家时她感到很不安。故答案是：She felt uneasy. 【58题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据划线单词句中“Liang Chow, who had coached the Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, transformed Douglas into one of the best gymnasts in the world…(奥运会金牌得主肖恩·约翰逊（Shawn Johnson）的教练周亮（Liang Chow）把道格拉斯变成了世界上最好的体操运动员之一)”以及“…from an average member of the national team to the top of the sport.( 从一名普通的国家队队员到这项运动的顶尖选手)”可知，她从一名普通的队员到这项运动中的顶尖运动员，这应该是很大的提示，迅速的提升。由此可知，划线单词的意思应与“迅速的提升”意义相近。故答案是：Rise rapidly. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第五段中“By winning the Olympic all- round title, she became the first black woman to do so. She also became the fourth American woman to win the all- round, following Mary Lou Retton in 1984, Carly Patternson in 2004 and Nastia Liukin in 2008.( 通过赢得奥运会全能冠军，她成为第一位获得这一殊荣的黑人女性。她也成为继1984年的玛丽·卢·雷顿、2004年的卡莉·帕特森和2008年的娜斯提亚·柳金之后，第四位赢得全能冠军的美国女选手。)”可知，道格拉斯不是美国第一位赢得奥运全能冠军的人，而是第一个赢得奥运全能冠军的黑人女性。故答案是：No, she isn’t. Because she is the first black woman to do so. 【60题详解】 考查开放性试题。根据最后一段中““ It was just an amazing feeling,” she said, giggling(咯咯笑).“I was just like, believe, don't fear, believe.” After sacrificing(牺牲) so much, she had no other choice but to push forward, she said.( “那种感觉太奇妙了，”她咯咯地笑着说。“我只是说，相信，不要害怕，相信。”她说，在牺牲了这么多之后，她别无选择，只能继续前进。)”可推知，道格拉斯很坚强，在赢得比赛之后她说：“我只是说，相信，不要害怕，相信。”故答案是：She is strong - minded. Because after she won the game, she said “I was just like, believe, don't fear, believe.” 第二节：书面表达 (满分 25 分) 61. 假如你是李华，今年上高三，看到大家每天为自己所做的一切，深有感触。请根据下表提示，写一篇100词左右的短文，可适当增加细节。 家长 生活上的照顾 学校 提供方便（如延长图书馆开放时间……） 老师 学习上的帮助（如鼓励， 答疑解难……） 你自己 努力学习， 争取成功， 将来成为对社会有用的人 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I’m a senior 3 student.

B Researchers around the world have been trying their hand at making better use of the huge amount of wind energy available in nature to produce clean energy. Apart from this, studies are being carried out to harness(利用) usable wind energy produced by man-made technologies. One useful source identified by Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan about two years ago is a speeding train, which produces fierce wind that can be transformed into electricity. According to Pradhan’s proposal, with a few small improvements in existing trains running in Mumbai, the largest city in India, at least 10,000 megawatts(兆瓦) of electricity could be harvested each day. Building on this principle, designers Ale Leonetti Luparinia and Qian Jiang from Yanko Design have created a device(装置) called T-Box that harnesses wind energy from speeding trains. T-Box can be placed within the railway tracks. It is half-buried underground between the concrete sleepers(水泥枕木), which does not disturb the normal train operating at all. According to Yanko, around 150 T-Boxes can be fitted along a 1,000-meter railway track. A train running at a speed of 200 kph can produce winds blowing at 15 miles a second. Based on this calculation, 150 T-Boxes can produce 2.6 KWH of electricity per day. The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in last year’s Lite-On Awards and was exhibited last summer at the Xue Xue Institute in Taipei, Taiwan Province. Though the figures look impressive, it is important to remember that the design is still at a conceptual stage and hasn’t taken into account issues such as pieces of waste material produced by the device and the efforts and costs involved in the maintenance(维护) of the device. We can expect the technology to see the light of the day only after it clears these issues. If so, rail travel, one of the greenest forms of travel, will become greener and more energy-efficient. 41. What can we learn about T-Box? A. It will be fitted on the trains. B. It is based on Pradhan’s idea. C. It can turn electricity into light. D. It was invented by an Indian scientist. 42 How much electricity can be produced per day by T-Boxes along a railway track of 100km? A. 260 KWH. B. 2.6 KWH. C. 150 KWH. D. 1.5 KWH. 43. It can be concluded from the last two paragraphs that ______. A. T-Box has proved to be effective in harvesting wind B. the maintenance of T-Box will be costly C. there is much to do about T-Box D. T-Box will come into use soon 44. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. The Indian inventor Santosh Pradhan invented the speeding train. B. The T-Box’s design won a silver medal in Lite-On Awards last year. C. Rail travel has become one of the energy-efficient technologies in the world. D. The India harvests 10,000 megawatts of electricity each day on average. 45. The passage is mainly written to _______. A. encourage more people to travel by train B. explain the advantages of electricity C. tell readers how to save energy and money D. introduce a new invention to readers C I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girlfriends. Little did I realized that casualness would certainly lead to loss. Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted FAIL in more than half the subjects. I didn't care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me. Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me,“ son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.” It hit me like a roundhouse kick from Bruce Lee. I was jolted (震摇) out of my bones! I couldn't comprehend how to pay off the debts that I had accumulated in college. I owed everybody money: the grocery store, the bars, the restaurants, my friends, ect. I was living a life filled with credit. When I came back to college, I knew if I didn’t change the way I live my life I wouldn't be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, drastic changes. I quitted smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books. One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude(优等成绩). Life was never the same again. This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I'm about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it! 46. Father decided to cut the author's allowance when he found his son _________.

Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child — things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents, he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society. 51. According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that _______. A. only children are interested in life B. life for a child is comparatively easy C. a child is always loved whatever he does D. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return 52.

She had to pack up her bedroom in Virgina Beach, where she lived with her mother, two sisters and brother. She had to say goodbye to her two dogs, who used to sleep in her bed, and to the beach, where she loved to ride waves on her boogie board. But it was time to take the leap, however, heartbreaking and awkward it would be. Even at 14, Douglas knew that. So off she went about 1,200 miles to West Des Moines, Lowa, to train with a coach from China and live with a white family she had never been met. When she arrived, Douglas thought that she must be the only black person in the state. When she woke up, she always said,“ This isn't my bed set. Where am I?” Liang Chow, who had coached the Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, transformed Douglas into one of the best gymnasts in the world, helping her skyrocket from an average member of the national team to the top of the sport. And a couple with four young daughters became her second family, nurturing her in lown while her real family supported her from afar. That move also was important in Douglas's making history. By winning the Olympic all- round title, she became the first black woman to do so. She also became the fourth American woman to win the all- round, following Mary Lou Retton in 1984, Carly Patternson in 2004 and Nastia Liukin in 2008. Douglas won, scoring 62.232 points, and led the competition from beginning to end. Viktoria Komova, who sobbed into her coach's chest when she learned she had lost, won the silver, with 61.973 points. Aliya Mustafina, the 2010 world all- round champion, won the bronze with 59.566 points. The other American in the competition, Aly Raisman finished fourth after losing a tiebreaker(决胜局) to Mustafina. Douglas said she had felt confident all along that she would win.“ It was just an amazing feeling,” she said, giggling(咯咯笑).“I was just like, believe, don't fear, believe.” After sacrificing(牺牲) so much, she had no other choice but to push forward, she said. 56.
