【解析】

試題分析：文章主要是以對話形式兩人描述極限運動及嘗試蹦極的想法。

1.根據(jù)“There is a TV program on about them each week. ”可知，這里講的是每周電視節(jié)目里有個頻道有極限運動。F選項中的“watch them on TV”與后面的“a TV program”相呼應。故選F。

2.根據(jù)“I think that the people who do the skateboarding are very skilled.”講認為玩滑板的人很熟練。 “It must take a lot of practice to stay on the skateboard.”中的一定在滑板上做了很多練習與上句構成因果關系。故選A。

3.根據(jù)下句中的“bungee jumping”蹦極運動推斷出，C選項問“你喜歡試試任何極限運動嗎”，問答內容相對應。故選C。

4.上句中前者說“I was very nervous about it”對蹦極趕到緊張害怕，后者在下文中說“The organizers have lots of safety procedures.”說明后者安慰前者說蹦極很安全。故選G。

5.由下句“You might even be tempted (吸引) to do a bungee jump.”可推斷出，表示同意去觀看。故選D。

A. Get started!

B. Forget your failures.

C. Find and use your positive voice.

D. Think about how far you have come.

E. Spend time with people who inspire you.

F. Accept failure as a positive learning experience.

Realizing your dreams is not a matter of possibility; it’s a matter of motivating yourself to focus on the right things. You know you should be doing something, but sometimes you just don’t feel like doing anything. This discouraging situation can last a long time if you don’t head it off and take action. Here are some daily motivation tricks that might work for you.

1.________

This is by far the most important tip in this article, because in the end, all of the other tips in the world won’t make as much of a difference as this simple and timeless instruction: Sit down and get a move on! Do you feel the push-back of laziness? Reading more about motivation won’t help. Reviewing your to-do lists won’t help. Only doing actually helps get everything going. So stop thinking about how hard the task is going to be or how long it’s going to take you. Not starting is failing. Tell yourself, “As soon as I get going, I’ll feel more motivated.” And you’ll realize it’s not nearly as hard as you thought it would be.

2. ________

Be aware of your self-talk and stay confident. You have the choice to replace negative self-talk with a more encouraging and friendly voice. A voice that will consider your aim as not just a possibility, but a probability; A voice that does not look at the possibility of success before taking action, but rather uses self-belief as its driving force; A voice that all things are possible to those who commit to their dream.

Tell yourself over and over again that you can do it. See what effect it has. Persist with this kind of positivity and eventually you’ll feel better about whatever it is you want to get done, and you’ll even start to fool yourself into believing it’s true.

3. ________

There is no better way to recharge yourself for improvement than spending time with someone who motivates you. They are smart and can always encourage you to be better. Study their qualities. Study their habits. Surround yourself with them, talk to them, learn from them; they are already living and producing results at a level you admire and expect to. Compare stories, successes and failures. Let their inner light guide you.

4.________

You have made so much progress, you just don’t realize it. Open your eyes and give yourself credit for all that you have done. Think about it. Write down your past successes. Consider using a journal to keep track of them. You’ll probably be pleasantly surprised when you review your results. It’s a great motivator to see how much you have improved and how far you have come. Be happy with your progress and move on.

5. ________

Do not judge unsuccessful attempts and mistakes as an indication of your future potential, but as part of the growth process. Something does not have to end well for it to have been one of the most valuable experiences of a lifetime. When times get tough, take a deep breath, and know that most great things come when you least expect it. Being defeated is a temporary condition; giving up is what makes it permanent. And most people that gave up didn’t realize how close they were to success. Push through!

People in several American states may be surprised to see cars on city streets without a driver. Experimental driverless vehicles now are legal in Florida, Nevada and California. They are pointing the way to a future that is not far down the road. The high-tech company Google has a number of self-driving cars, which had covered 480,000 kilometers by August. Volvo is among the companies doing road tests and says it plans to sell driverless cars by 2020.

In September, California Governor Jerry Brown signed an act to allow autonomous vehicles on the roads of his state. “Today we're looking at science fiction becoming tomorrow's reality-the driverless car.”The technology for these cars includes cameras, radar and motion sensors. The systems have been improved through competitions sponsored by the U. S. government agency DARPA. Engineer Richard Mason of the Rand Corporation helped design driverless vehicles for DARPA challenge races.

Cars have become much more fuel-efficient, and new electronic features are making Hondas safer, said Angie Nucci of Honda America. “A camera on the passenger-side mirror actually engaged on your guiding screen so you can safely change lanes.” Other safety features include warning systems on the front and the sides of the cars. The systems help drivers, but don't replace them. Curator Leslie Kendall of the Petersen Automotive Museum said autonomous cars will make the high ways safer.

“By taking out drivers, you also remove most risks of an accident,” Kendall said. He said consumers, however, may be unwilling to lose control. “It may take them time to come to realize that the technology is indeed reliable, but it will have to prove itself first.”

Mason said the technology already works and the biggest challenge now is getting down the cost for driverless vehicles from hundreds of thousands of dollars to something more affordable. He said this will happen as the technology is improved.

1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

A. Driverless vehicles are now legal in the whole USA.

B. Volvo will be the first to sell driverless cars.

C. Google’s self-driving cars have covered a long distance.

D. Driverless cars are pointing us a faraway future.

2.We learn that Governor of California Jerry Brown_________.

A. helped design self-driving cars.

B. supports self-driving cars on roads.

C. considers self-driving cars science fiction.

D. improved the self-driving car systems.

3.According to Richard Mason, what is the biggest challenge for driverless cars?

A. They are now too expensive for consumers.

B. Their technical problems remain to be solved.

C. They are not allowed to run on the road.

D. They are more dangerous for people on the street.

4.What's the best title of the passage?

A. The benefits of the self-driving cars.

B. The biggest challenge of the self-driving cars.

C. Self-driving cars-science fiction future is near.

D. Safer or more dangerous-self-driving cars.

The Healthy Habits Survey(調查) shows that only about one third of American seniors have correct habits. Here are some findings and expert advice.

1. How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?

3．How often do you think about fighting germs?
