As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team. She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home. She says, “When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race. They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey.” Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadnt prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. “One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldnt move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.”By the end of October last year, she had raised more than 50,000 for charity. She says, “Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, its the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.” 第1题：16. What does the word “extraordinary” mean in the title? (2分) A、very ordinary B、very unusual and surprising C、not special D、extreme 参考答案：B - 第2题：17. The sentence “my husband thought I was bored ” in Para. 4 meant that my husband thought I felt_.(2分) A、dissatisfied because I had nothing better to do at home B、annoyed because I had to wait long for my children to come back home C、happy because I could do something I was interested in instead of taking care of children D、sad because all the children left me when they grew up 参考答案：A - 第3题：18. The word “section” in Para. 4 most probably means here _. A. group of people B. part of the trainingC. part of the route of sail D. part of the job (2分) A、group of people B、part of the training C、part of the route of sail D、part of the job 参考答案：C - 第4题：19. Which of the following is nearest (closest) in meaning to “rough” in the sentence “One night the sea was very rough ” in Para. 5?(2分) A、not exact B、difficult C、not smooth because of huge waves D、pleasant 参考答案：C - 第5题：20. The last paragraph suggests that _.(2分) A、the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancer B、many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so she neednt do anything before the journey C、she should be kind to other team members during the trip D、she should not forget dancing during the trip 参考答案：A - 阅读理解题2 Passage TwoIn the last 500 years, nothing about people not their clothes, ideas, or languages has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the“Potato Famine”of 1845-6, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America.There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the Worlds largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a goatherd name Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the worlds population now starts the day with. 第1题：21.

She told us about caring for her mother.I wake up early every day, its usually about 6.30 am, and wait until I hear Tilly, my mum, moving about. Then I make her a cup of tea. At about half past seven she gets up and we have breakfast together. We normally just have toast, but on Sundays we always have bacon and eggs. After breakfast she reads the newspaper, then she sits by the window and waves to the neighbours as they walk by.She hardly ever goes out but she is very proud of her personal appearance, so she goes to the hairdresser once a month.She doesnt like being left on her own for very long, so I always arrange for a neighbour to come and sit with her when I go out. Now and again, my friend and neighbour, Joan, comes to spend the day with her, and I can go and have lunch with another friend, May, who lives in town.I have a brother, Syd. He comes to stay two or three times a year. He is very good and keeps in touch, but he lives 300 miles away. Once a year, he collects mum and takes her to stay with him in London for a week. She doesnt really like going because its a long journey, but I need the rest.Sally, the nurse, comes to see mum regularly. My next-door neighbour, Jack, often calls in. In the evening we usually watch TV and we sometimes play cards. Mum is fantastic for her age. But I can never decide to go anywhere spontaneously. I always have to plan it, so I feel a bit trapped. But what is the alternative? An old peoples home? I couldnt do that to my mother. 第1题：26.
