Now, however, there are people

6、who look for an immediate excitement from a risky activity, which may only last a few minutes or even seconds. I would consider bungee jumping （蹦极跳） to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot air balloon) 200 meters above the ground with an elasti

7、c （有弹性的） rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground.

8、 from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these?

11、（退休）from teaching music in 2001,I have spent a good deal of time painting as an artist. I actually began drawing again in the summer of 1995 when my lather died. so perhaps I was trying to recover from the loss of my father, or maybe it was just that it brought back memories of him. In any case, I d

12、rew pen and ink animals and landscapes（风景画）much influenced（影响）by Krenkel and St. John for five years. For some strange reason, I had been waiting until my retirement to start doing watercolors again, but as soon as I walked out of the school door for the last time I picked up my brushes and rediscov

13、ered Andrew Wyeth, who quickly became my favorite artist. I had looked through all the art books I had on my shelves and found his watercolors to be the closest to how I thought good watercolors should look. So I painted landscapes around Minnesota for three years and tried out many other types of p

14、ainting. However, watercolors remained my first choice, and I think I did my best work there, showing my paintings at a number of art exhibitions.

I knew that I had a natural ability wit

18、h words and a power of facing unpleasant facts, and I felt that this created a sort of private world in which I could get my own back for my failure in everyday life. However, the quantity of serious writing which I produced all through my childhood would not add up to half a dozen pages. I wrote my

19、 first poem at the age of four or five, my mother taking it down to dictation. I cannot remember anything about it except that it was about a tiger and the tiger had “chair-like teeth” - a good enough expression. At eleven, when the war of 1914-18 broke out, I wrote a poem which was printed in the l

20、ocal(地方的） newspaper, as was another, two years later, on the death of Kitchener. From time to time, when I was a bit older, I wrote bad and usually unfinished “nature poems”.

Be very careful when you are around him.”AIDS wasnt something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my

31、ficant（显著的）problem. The information signed helped up in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation（动机）,we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the studen

32、ts have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the pest. Therefore a different method may help because it is different. Variety of activity was als

33、o seen as a way of maintaining（保持）or increasing motivation Several years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about halfway through the ten weeks.

36、问题的提问方式有以下几种： 1.This selection （节选） might be some parts of a book concerned with. 2. This passage might be taken out of a book dealing with. 3. Where did this passage most probably appear? 4.These extracts （摘录） are probably taken from. 5. This passage would most likely be found in _ ?那么如何判断文章的体裁和来源呢

37、？ 判断体裁应根据其写作特点和叙述的内容，故事、评论、阐述对话各有其特点，是不难区分的。判断其来源要留心所选的部分是哪一类的，涉及哪方面的内容。一篇故事是不可能取材于科学杂志，新闻报道也不可能刊载在书评内。因此，判断文章来源应将文章的形式及内容特点加以综合考虑才能下结论。二、 对前后的内容作出判断与预测 这是要求你对该选段前面未取部分或其后将要谈及的内容，作出判断与预测。通常提问的方式有： 1. The paragraph preceding（先于.） this one most probably discusses .2. The paragraph preceding this extra

38、ct probably deal with.3. What does the paragraph following the passage most likely discuss?4. What do you think the author will discuss in the next part?5. The author intend to explain next .6. According to the passage youve read, the writer will probably suggest next . 如何判断和预测前后的内容呢？由于所选文章的前后内容都未出现

39、，且该部分是孤立的一段或几段，因此要准确作出判断，并非易事。这就要求我们在看文章时，要带着问题去阅读。首先，我们对所读的选段要有一个全局的概念，弄清它所涉及的全部内容，哪些可能已谈过，哪些还没谈，而我们正在阅读的摘选部分就是你作出分析的参照物了。其次，我们要从文章的语篇结构上去分析。一篇文章通常由导言、正文和结束语构成。导言一般要概述全篇内容，它规定了文章的主线或中心内容。借助导言，我们能紧紧把握作者的思路，从而有利于对文章的理解。正文是文章的主体，也是最常选摘的部分。正文的各段内容都由导言确定，也就是说，正文不论述导言中未提及的观点和内容。结束语是文章的收尾部分，尤其是正式论文往往通过它而使

40、全篇得到提纲挈领的概括并从中得出结论。 因此，通过对文章的篇章结构的分析，就可判断已谈了什么或将要谈什么。Passage 1More than 30,000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured （受伤） each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third floor window. Wearing a seat belt （安全带） saves lives; it reduces

41、 your chance of death or serious injury by more than half. Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to $ 50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the drivers responsibil

42、ity （责任） to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing seat belt of some kind. However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing （倒退） your vehicle or you are making a local delivery （发送） or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a va

43、lid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances （情形） apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing

44、it. Question: This text is taken from _. A. a medical magazine B. a police report C. an advertisement （广告） D. a government information booklet （小册子） 这篇文章由不系安全带造成的危害引出不系安全带会处以什么样的惩罚，以及哪些情况下可以不系安全带。很显然，文章应该是从警方的报告中节选下来的，答案是 B 。 Passage 2Its 2035. You have a job, a family and youre about 40 years old.

45、Welcome to your future life. Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror, Turn red, you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronic are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe that you are 40

46、. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. Youre not even middle-aged. As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl, you hear: To lose weight, you shouldnt eat that, from your shoes. They rea
