But with his iron persistence and determination, he did develop the ability to stand up, then to walk and then to run.By the time he was 12, he had beaten all the local high school runners. His legs remained deeply scarred, however. Thro

11、ughout his life, he would have to spend time doing long warm-up exercises in order to maintain circulation. In addition, his injuries meant that he could never run smoothly or efficiently.When in university, he ran for the university track team and won his first big race, the 1932 NCAA 1500 meters.

12、That summer, he was selected for the U.S. Olympic track team and came in fourth in the 1500 meter race in the Olympic Games. In 1933, he won the AAU 800 meters with a time of 1:51.8. Overall, he ran 20races during that summer. That year, the first year he was called “Ironman”.Although Glenn might ha

13、ve used his name as a star athlete to make a great deal of money, he was more interested in helping others. He and his wife opened the Glenn Cunningham Youth Ranch and raised over 10,000 foster (寄养的) children over three decades.Throughout his life, Glenn won many awards including the Sullivan Memori

They are the ones who, right in the middle of a critical meeting, are expected to instantly fix the projector thats no longer working. They have to tolerate the bad tempers of

18、colleagues frustrated at the number of times theyve had to call the help desk for the same issue. They are also the ones who know there are systems that are more powerful, reliable and faster, but their employer simply will not put up the funds to buy them.According to a recent survey, employees who

19、 have a job dependent on IT support consider IT a major source of job dissatisfaction. Though no fault of they own, they can suddenly find their productivity getting worse or quality control non-existent. And theres little they can do about it.The experience of using IT exists almost the entire work

20、 field. It has become a critical part of employees overall work experience. When IT is operating as it should, employee self-confidence swells. Their job satisfaction, too, can surge when well-functioning machines relieve them of dull tasks or repetitive processes. But if theres one thing that cause

21、s widespread employee frustration, its an IT transformation project gone wrong, where swollen expectations have been popped and a long list of promised efficiencies have been reversed (颠覆). This occurs when business leaders implement (执行) IT initiatives with little consideration of how those changes

22、 will impact the end user, which is why managers should appreciate just how influentialthe IT user experience is to their employees, and make substantial effort in ensuring their IT team eliminates programming errors and application crashes. Adequate and timely IT support should also be available to

23、 enable users to cope with technological issues at work. More importantly, IT practitioners need to understand what employees experience mentally when they use IT.Therefore, businesses need to set up their IT infrastructure (基础设施) so that it is designed to fit in with their employees work, rather th

They also did more household work and parti

28、cipated in more of such organized activities as soccer and ballet. Involvement in sports, in particular, rose almost 50% from 1981 to 1997: boys now spend an average of four hours a week playing sports; girls log hall that time. All in all, however, childrens leisure time dropped from 40% of the day

29、 in 1981 to 25%.“Children are affected by the same time crunch ( 危 机 ) that affects their parents,” says Sandra Hofferth,who headed the recent study of childrens timetable. A chief reason, she says, is that more mothers are working outside the home. (Nevertheless, children in both double-income and

30、“male breadwinner” households spent comparable amounts of time interacting with their parents 19 hours and 22 hours respectively. In contrast, children spent only 9 hours with their single mothers.)All work and no play could make for some very messed-up kids. “Play is the most powerful way a child e

31、xplores the world and learns about himself,” says T. Berry Brazelton, professor at Harvard Medical School Unstructured play encourages independent thinking and allows the young to negotiate their relationships with their peers, but kids ages 3 to 12 spent only 12 hours a week engaged in it.The child

32、ren sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing “free time” watching television. But that, believe it or not, was one of the findings parents might regard as good news. If theyre spending lesstime in front of the TV set, however, kids arent replacing it with reading. Despite efforts to get k

33、ids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week reading. Lets face it, whos got the time?12.What does the underlined phrase “the same time crunch” in Paragraph 2 refer to?GG. Children have little time to play with their parents.HH. Both parents and children suffer from lack

34、 of leisure time.II. Children are not taken good care of by their working parents.JJ. Both parents and children have trouble managing their time.13.In the authors opinion, a child develops better if .KK. he has plenty of time reading and studyingLL. he is free to interact with his working parentsMM.

35、 he is left to play with his peers in his own wayNN. he has more time participating in school activities14.What does the author worry about American kids?OO. They are increasingly ignored by their working mothers.PP. They are engaged in more and more structured activities.QQ. They are spending more

36、and more time watching TV.RR. They are involved less and less in household work.15.What can we conclude from the text?SS. Extracurricular activities promote childrens intelligence.TT. Most parents believe reading to be beneficial to children.UU. Efforts to get kids interested in reading have been fr

37、uitful.VV. Most children will turn to reading with TV sets switched off.Part （B）根据短文内容， 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项， 选项中有两项为多余选项。Going to the zoo is an all-time favorite activity for children and families. 16 In order to make a decision, we must consider the arguments for and against keeping wild animals

38、in zoos.One benefit of zoos is that they are useful for educating people about animals. We can observe animals at close range and learn more about them than we can from books and the TV. It also provides an opportunity to promote the conservation of endangered species. 17 This helps them to come up

39、with better ways of protecting animals from harm in their natural habitat.On the other hand, keeping animals in zoos is similar to a prison sentence. Many zoos do not have large enough enclosures to keep animals comfortable. The animals have limited freedom to move about. We often see even the fierc

40、e lions lying passively in their enclosures just waiting for their next meal to be served. They suffer from stress and boredom. 18 Another thing we need to consider is the cost of maintaining a zoo. A lot of funds are needed to run a zoo. Money is needed to stock the zoo with all kinds of animals. 1

41、9 The animals need food and medical care. Special spaces need to be built to house each type of animals. More staff are needed to clean and maintain the zoo grounds. 20 If you want to see animals, I advise you to go on a safari. For conservation and research, set up sanctuaries like the Sepilok oran

42、gutan sanctuary in Sabah. It is kinder to leave the animals in their natural home-the wild.A. This in turn causes animals to live shorter lives.B. We have also heard about animals being mistreated.C. However, some people argue against keeping wild animals in zoos.D. They have to carry out research o

43、n the survival rate of this species.E. Staff must be hired and trained to take care of each species of animals.F. In addition, zoos allow scientists to study animal behavior more easily.G. In conclusion, it is cruel and selfish to keep animals in an unnatural prison. 1-3: D C A 4-7: ABAA 8-11:CACD 12-15: BCBA 16-20 : C F A E G
