around the world aboard her 38-foot boat,Guppy.Dekker,who is from theNetherlands,traveled more than 30,000 miles all by herself.She is the youngest person ever to sail around the globe alone.Dekker had wanted to lake on this challenge when she was even younger.She first tried to set sail at the age of 13,but a court in theNetherlandsstopped her.They said that she was too young to make such a

worries about pirates.But she also got to surf,scuba dive,and started a new hobby:playing the flute.Although Dekker didnt spend all of her time at seashe stopped at ports along the wayshe did spend her 16lh birthday on the open ocean.To celebrate,she ate doughnuts for breakfast.But Dekker didnt sail into the record books.Guinness World Records and the World Sailing Speed Record Council no longer recognize records for“youngest”sailors.They dropped the category in 2009 to discourage children fromattempting such dangerous feats(壮举).But that didnt stop Dekker，who was born on a yacht during a seven-year world voyage undertaken by her parents.Dekker doesnt mind that she wont hold an official record.She says it was a personal goal,and she is happy she achieved it.“I am not disappointed at

passage?A.A New Guinness World Record in Sailing B.A New Sailing Standard for Teen Sailors C.A Teen Girl Sailing Alone Aroundthe World D.The Youngest Sailor in Guinness World Records C Jose Hernandez made his dream of becoming an astronaut a reality and he did so despite unbelievable difficulties“I was workingin a field near Stockton,and I heard on my radio that Franklin Chang-Diaz had been selected for the Astronaut Corps,said Jose,who was a senior in high school at the timed was already interested in science and engineering,Jose remembered,but that was the moment I said,I want to fly in space.As one of four children in a migrant（移民）farming family from Mexico,Jose-who didnt learn English until he was 12 years old-spent much of his childhood traveling with his family from Mexico to southern California each March,then working northward to the Stockton area by November,picking strawberries and cucumbers at farms along the route.They would then return to Mexico for Christmas and start the cycle all over again in the spring.Some kids might think it would be fun to travel like that,“Jose laughed,but we had to work”.After graduating from high school,Jose was admitted into the University of the Pacific,In 1987,he accepted a full-time job with Lawrence National Laboratory.In 2001,Jose joinedtheJohnson Space Center,where he came face-to-face with Franklin Chang-Diaz.“We actually had common experiences asimilar upbringing,the same language issues.That built up my confidence.Any barriers that existed,he had already overcome them.”Jose smiled.Now its my tum!,“NASA rejected me not once,not twice,not three times but 11 times.It wasnt until the 12th time that I got selected,he said.Jose was selected as part of the 19th class of astronauts in 2004.He circled the globe 217 times but remains a down to Earth guy.Jose Hernandez received the 2016 National Hispanic Hero Award and he continues his long history in the field of engineering and space.8.What made Jose

learn about Jose as a child?A.He did much farm work.B.He travelled a lot for fun.C.He hated learning English.D.He obeyed his family in everything.10.How did Jose feel when he met FranklinChang-Diaz personally?A.Inspired.B.Valued.C.Relaxed.D.Puzzled.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Climb over Barriers B.Reach for the Stars C.Work the Hard Way D.Learn from Your Past D Please take a few seconds and think of your personal biggest goal.Imagine telling someone you meet today what youre going to do.Imagine their congratulations and their high image of you.Doesnt it feel good to say it out loud?Dont you feel one step closer already?Well,bad news:you should have kept your mouth shut,because that good feeling will make you less likely to do it.Any time you have a goal,there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it.Ideally,you would not be satisfied until youd actually done the work.But when you tell someone your goal and he acknowledges(认可)it,psychologists have found its called a“social reality”.The mind is kind of tricked into feeling that its already done.And then,because youve felt that satisfaction,youre less motivated to do the actual hard work necessary.This goes againstthe traditional wisdom that we should tell our friends our goals,right?In 1982,Peter Gollwitzer,a Professor of Psychology,wrote a whole book about this.And in 2009,he did some new tests that were published.It goes like this:163 people across four separate testseveryone wrote down their personal goal.Then half of them announced their commitment(许诺)to this goal to the room,and half didnt.Then everyone was given 45 minutes of work that would directly lead them towards their goal,but they were told that they could stop at any time.Now those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average,and when asked afterwards,said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal.But those who had announced it quit after only 33 minutes on average,and when asked afterwards,said that they felt much closer to achieving their goal.12.What do the words“social reality”in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Completion of the goal.B.Necessary hard work.C.Peoples acknowledgement.D.A sense of satisfaction.13.What does Peter Gollwitzer try to tell us?A.Writing down the goal is very helpful.B.Achieving personal goal needs more time.C.Keeping the goal secret makes people work harder.D.Making the goal public makes people less satisfied.14.How did Peter Gollwitzer prove his idea about peoples goal?A.By giving figures.B.By giving examples.C.By making a survey.D.By making comparison tests.15.What will probably happen if you tell your friends your goal?A.You will be more confident.B.You will not gain satisfaction.C.You are less likely to realize it.D.Youll be much moremotivated.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 In the early decades of the Peoples Republic ofChinafounded in 1949,due to the underdeveloped transportation and
