How to Be a Winner

  Sir Steven Redgrave

  Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals

  “In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes(糖尿病). Believing my career(職業(yè)生涯) was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was to no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it -the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn’t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn't finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”

  Karen Pickering

  Swimming World Champion

 “I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success-you can’t follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and you’ll be a step closer to achieving them.”

  Kirsten Best

  Poet & Writer

“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve something. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘calm’, ‘peace’ or ‘focus’, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological(心理的) tool”

A recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be “running out of control”, This idea is dangerous.

  Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its applications can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively, will determine the outcomes of science. But here is a real danger. Science is advancing so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing.

  Some people go even further. They say that despite the moral and legal objections(反對(duì)), whatever is scientifically possible will be done-somewhere , sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and discourages then from making efforts to build a safer world.

  In our interconnected world, the lack of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a common understanding, the challenges of “controlling” science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning for example. Despite the general agreement among scientists on its possible huge impact(影響) on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The outcomes are hard to predict.

  Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the untied efforts of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the future.

  72. What can we conclude from the recent study?

  A. People think highly of science.

  B. People hold mixed opinions about science.

  C. Science is getting dangerously out of control.

  D. Science is used for both good and bad purposes.

  73. According to the passage , what will happen if we hold that science is getting beyond control?

  A. The development of science will hopelessly slow down.

  B. Businesses will have even greater influence on science.

  C. The public will lose faith in bringing about a bright future.

  D. People will work more actively to put science under control.

  74. The discussion should reach beyond scientific societies because_______

  A. scientists have failed to predict the outcomes

  B. the ties between different areas need strengthening

  C. united efforts are necessary for the development of science

  D. people need to work together to prevent the bad use of science

  75. What is the main idea of the passage?

  A. Science and its applications bring us many dangers.

  B. The development of science mostly lies in people's attitudes.

  C. Mankind can largely take control of science with their efforts.

D. The future of science will be influenced by the dangerous ideas.

Liverpool, my hometown, is a unique city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage(遺產(chǎn)) Site.

  I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey. Blanketed in mist(薄霧), Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.

  As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries(美術(shù)館) than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has the best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, making the city a place of wonder.

  As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub(酒館). It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.

  Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”. It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

 68. Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by________

  A. its charming banks

  B. its famous museums

  C. its wonderful palaces

  D. its attractive buildings

 69. The third paragraph is developed mainly by______

  A. providing different examples

 70. The author uses the Philharmonic pub to prove that_______

  A. Liverpool is a well-known city for its restaurants

  B. Liverpool is an impressive place full of attraction

  C. a pub is a wonderful place for visitors to relax themselves

  D. a pub is a perfect choice for visitors to complete their journey

 71. What is the passage mainly about?

  A. The universal value of the world heritage in Liverpool

  C. The special cultural atmosphere of Liverpool

D. The beautiful historic sites of Liverpool

Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature .However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.

Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球場(chǎng)) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.

There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.

Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.

 64. Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?

  A. Cycling around a lake.

  B. Motor racing in the desert.

  C. Playing basketball in a gym.

  In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers(探險(xiǎn)者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In turn, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why," they asked, "are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?"

  H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the "moon people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.

  Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Chunnel", a tunnel(隧道)connecting England and France, is now complete.

  But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called "Alice Cities." The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome(太陽(yáng)能穹頂)would cover the whole city.

  Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G. Wells’ "moon people" would agree. Would you?

56. The explorers in H. G. Wells’ story were surprised to find that the "moon people"____.

  A. knew so much about the earth

  B. understood their language

  C. lived in so many underground cities

  D. were ahead of them in space technology

57. What does the underlined word "it"(Paragraph 2)refer to?

  A. Discovering the moon's inner space.

  B. Using the earth's inner space.

  C. Meeting the "Moon people" again.

  D. Traveling to outer space.

58. What sort of underground systems are already here with us?

  A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations.

  B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.

  C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.

  D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.

59. What would be the best title for the text?

  A. Alice Cities-cities of the future

  B. Space travel with H. G. Wells

  C. Enjoy living underground

  D. Building down, not up
