11、 a real-life Superman! Last week, the brave 50-year-old rescued Cameron Hollopeter, 20, from being hit by a train. The train was entering a subway station in New York City. The young man had fallen from the stations platform and onto the train tracks a few feet below.Autrey, a construction worker an

12、d Navy veteran(老兵), was with his two young daughters when he saw Hollopeter fall. Autrey made a quick decision and jumped onto the tracks. He then rolled himself and Hollopeter into a gap, or opening, between the rails. Autrey used his own body to protect the young man.Five of the train s cars passe

13、d over the two before stopping completely. The two men were both unharmed. Hollopeters stepmother, Rachel Hollopeter, called Autrey an “angel“. Autrey visited the New York Film Academy student in the hospital on Wednesday.For his bravery, Autrey was given a heros welcome at City Hall. New York City

14、Mayor Michael Bloomberg presented Autrey with the Bronze Medallion (铜奖章). It is the city s highest award for achievements by its citizens. Mayor Bloomberg called Audrey “ a great man-a man who makes us all proud to be New Yorkers.“After the ceremony at City Hall, a limousine (豪华轿车 )took Autrey to a

15、meeting with multimillionaire businessman Donald Trump. Trump awarded Autrey with $ 10,000. The heroic father also received $ 5,000 from the New York Film Academy, a trip to Disney World, and one year of free sub way rides.Even after all this attention; Autrey still doesnt see himself as a Superman.

16、“ I did it out of a split-second reaction,“ Autrey said on CBS The Early Show. “And if I had to do it again, I probably would.“21 Wesley Autrey is still being called a real-life Superman because_（A）he can rescue anybody in danger as he has the ability to fly（B） he rescued a young man from being hit

21、nes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes its a hot topic discussed by people.The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Eve

22、ry year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great am

23、ount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span(寿命)can be prolonged.Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial(皇帝的)family being a

24、 good example, have hereditary(遗传的 )dis-eases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. Scientists just need to

25、find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture(生产)human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep; therefore these people predict that human babies w

26、ould soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.25 What does “these two killers“ in the second paragraph refer to?（A）Gene tec

27、hnology and another treatment of the two diseases.（B） The two murderers who killed the cloned baby.（C） The two diseases of cancer and heart disease.（D）Hereditary diseases and cancer.26 Whats the main idea of the third paragraph?（A）Gene technology can help people to give birth to a baby.（B） Gene tech

29、diseases to live longer.（B） Using gene technology, scientists find the wrong gene and correct it.（C） Using gene technology, human babies can be cloned.（D）Doctors can cure cancer and heart disease with the help of gene technology.28 What is the main purpose of writing this passage?（A）Expressing the w

30、riters idea that gene technology will benefit people.（B） Telling people the advantages and disadvantages of gene technology.（C） Telling the readers that gene technology will not benefit people.（D）Explaining that gene technology will also do harm to the humanity.28 Here are two letters from our reade

31、rs expressing their concern about school assessment (评价)：Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades (学习成绩). Fortunately, most educators realize that students have different interests and abilities. However, grade-based assessment is still very common. Grades often hold back cr

32、eativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to go in for music, drama and sports. Grades are also an unfair measure of a student s ability. I do not demand, as some extremists do, that grades should no longer be recorded. However, I do believe that less impo

33、rtance should be placed on. grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional(可选择的) at Village High School.Magdalena Smith, President Drama Club (2) Let s face the facts about grades. Grades perform three basic functions(功能). First, grades get students to work at their highest level of compete

34、nce (能力). Second, they act as an encouragement for hard-working students and as a warming to those who are not. Finally, grades are an effective standard by which to measure students achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university.Ive spoken with a number of students wh

35、o have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired mainly because of their grades. My grades helped me get a part-time job and will help me into university next year. I think grades are extremely important at Village High School.Simon Harper, Member, Science Club29 Simon Harper writes from the v

36、iewpoint of someone who_（A）insists grades should become optional in the near future（B） believe in the advantages of assessment based on grades（C） is concerned about improving students creativity（D）supports using students interests to measure their abilities30 Magdalena Smith thinks it is important f

37、or_.（A）educators to assess the students by grades（B） educators to pay more attention to grades（C） students to compete for better grades（D）students to take part in music, drama, and sports31 According to the letters, which of the following is TRUE about Village High School?（A）Grades are effective in

38、every way.（B） Grades hold back students creativity.（C） Grades bring about unnecessary worries.（D）Grades are still in use at present.32 What are the two letters mainly about?（A）The role that grades should play in assessing students.（B） The importance of art and music in students life.（C） The need to

39、have a standard measure for students success.（D）The reasons why grades shouldnt be used to assess students.32 Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent, p

40、ersons intelligence is fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship

41、 between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(随意地) from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins they will very likely be as

42、intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, t

43、o a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We should soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but

44、who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.33 The writer is in favor of the view that mans intelligence is given to him（A）at birth（B） through education（C） both at birth and through education（D）neither at birth nor through education34 If a child is born with low inte

45、lligence, he is unlikely to_（A）become a genius so long as he or she works hard enough（B） still become a genius if he should be given special education（C） go beyond his intelligence limits even in rich surroundings（D）never reaches his intelligence limits in his life35 The example of the twins going t

46、o a university and to a factory separately shows（A）the importance of their intelligence（B） the role of environment on intelligence（C） the importance of their positions（D）the part that birth plays36 What can be the best title for the text?（A）Surroundings（B） Intelligence（C） Dependence on Environment（D

47、）Effect of Education36 Devon, 17, is used to paying her own cell phone and car expenses. But lately its been harder. The family she baby-sits for hasn t been calling as much as usual and she couldnt find a job over the summer. Devons dad said its a sign of the tough economy. He told her hes feeling

48、the pinch too and that he had to use her college fund to pay the loan(贷款).This kind of money troubles isnt strange to common families these days. In fact, its hard to avoid news about the economy on the screen of the TV or the computers recently. It can seem a bit worry and some families are hit rea

49、lly hard.For most people, the big problem is that things cost more at a time when they have less money to spend. But higher prices arent the only problem. Many people are having a tough time making payments on some types of home loans.Therefore, some families are cutting back on what they spend. For example, eating out less, staying home instead of going on vacation, moving to a less expensive house and so on.However, as discouraging as thing
