I had a head-on collision(碰撞) with another car. My foot hurt and my car was banged up. There were people rushing to my door to tell me to get out. All that I could do was to tell them I had to get my cellphone. I couldnt think at that moment. I still had my seat belt on and I was trying to reach down to get my phone. My handbags contents had spilled out everywhere. I rang my dad- I didnt even know where I was, even though I was only a couple streets away. Eventually, I got out of the car with the help of some people. I remember sitting there on the side of the road watching this scene unfold - police, ambulance, truck drivers, people everywhere, lights flashing. Then my dad turned up. He was a bit shaken up - I suppose he didnt really know what to expect. I was lucky. I only had bruises and sprains. I didnt even know I was in shock until the policeman asked me what day it was and I didnt know. It turned out that the other driver didnt stop at a stop sign. Can you imagine that - a stupid mistake on his part caused so much trouble? Now Im really nervous when driving and even worse when Im a passenger. Im always scared that someone is going to cut us off , break the rules or just do something really stupid to cause an accident. So dear drivers, now do you know what to do at a stop sign?51. What happened to the author that day? A. The car behind hit hers. B. Her car hit a parked car head on. C. Another car went too fast and hit hers. D. Another car didnt stop at a stop sign and crashed into hers.52. From paragraph 1, we know that the author _. A. was very calm in the face of the accident B. was in a great panic after the accidentC. had no one to turn to after the accident D. had experienced such accidents before53.

A. she was not seriously injured in the accident B. there were so many people caring about her C. the police showed up on the spot on time D. her car was not seriously damaged B A Better Tomorrow The teachers always told him that he had a bright future. Everyone thought that he would grow up to be a refined young man. He was an example of excellence. The rest of the kids in his middle school were ordinary compared to him. Walking home the other day, I saw him leaning against an old bus shelter. The same boy who once showed an outstanding talent in many subjects now appeared exhausted and dull. “What happened to you?” I asked. He glanced at me, making no reply. Then he took another drag from his pack of cigarettes. I stared at him curiously, not able to believe how much he had changed. The little boy who I had once known, the boy who had so much potential, handed over his life to cigarettes, drugs, and alcohol. This is one of the problems with todays high school society. Our generation has fallen to drugs, video games, television, and many other electronic devices. People have gotten lazy, always looking for the easy way out. We dont challenge ourselves to think anymore; technology does it for us. Aristotle, Galileo, Bohr, and many other scientists devoted their lives to making discoveries, trying to understand the magic of the universe. These are men who would die to gain the knowledge of the world that we have today. Many of the greatest discoveries were made without electronics. Intelligence is something that many of us have, but unfortunately, only some are smart enough to take advantage of it. I hope that teens free themselves from such bad behavior and make a difference. Go out there and challenge yourself. Start using your mind, purse those old dreams that you had so long ago, and become human again.54. The underlined word “refined” in paragraph 1 means _.

Believing my career was over, I felt extremely now. Then one of the specialists said there was 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 isnt difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasnt finished yet. Nothing is standing in my way.Karen PickeringSwimming Word 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 cant 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 will be a step closer to achieving them.Kirsten BestPoet &Writer “ When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I cant 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 increase my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological tool.”58. What does Sir Steven Redgrave mainly talk about? A. He overcame the shadow of illness to win. B.

These quiet, environmentally friendly, battery-powered vehicles can be charged in a wall plug(插頭)，like a giant power tool. The worlds population will jump from 6.8 billion to 9 billion by 2050. The demand for cars will jump with it. The supply of oil wont keep up with the number of cars on the road. Electric cars arent perfect just yet. It can take eight hours to charge a car for only 100 miles of driving. And the distance cars can go changes depending on driving conditions. The Nissan Leaf can go as much as 100 miles or as little as 47 miles on one charge. How far it travels also depends on the weather and traffic. Price is a problem too. Electric models cost much more than petrol-powered cars. The good news is that electric-car technology is getting better. As it does, the prices of the vehicles are dropping. The U.S. Department of Energy is paying for at least 10,000 charging stations around the country. Private businesses are also preparing for that. Richard Lowenthal is the head of Coulomb Technologies, a company in California. He says that his firm will install about 4,500 charging stations, mostly at office parks and homes. It will cost about $3 per charge. “ The typical car is parked 23 hours a day. You can charge it while you work and while you sleep,” Lowenthal says. Carmakers are coming up with other ways that dont require oil to power autos. Cars may run on natural gas. So who knows what will power the car you may be driving in 10 years? Chances are good that it will be something that is clean and easy.62. How long does it take at least to charge a car for 500 miles? A. 40 hours. B. 8 hours. C. 80 minutes. D. 40 minutes.63. We know from the passage that electric cars _. A. are affordable B. cant be charged conveniently C. can reduce traffic pressure D. produce less noise64. What will Coulomb Technologies do for the wide use of electric cars? A. Make more electric cars. B. Make charging stations convenient. C. Produce power-saving batteries. D. Pay for many charging stations.65. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. What kind of car power will be used is uncertain in 10 years. B. It is the electric car that will be driven in 10 years. C. Cars in the future will run on different kinds of oil. D. Cars in the future will still do harm to the environment. E “ In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.” “Two full inches in the first three days!” These are the kinds of statements used in magazine newspaper, radio and television ads, promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device. The promoters of the products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability. Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health. To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulations. If the product is a drug, FDA(Food and Drug Administration) can require proof under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that is s
