The night before my marathon， I dreamt that I couldnt even find the finish line I woke up sweating and nervous， but ready to prove something to myself Shortly after crossing the start line， my shoe laces （鞋带）became untied So I stopped to readjust Not the start I wanted！ At mile 3， I passed a sign： GO FOR IT， RUNNERS! By mile 17， I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly Despite the pain， I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again By mile 21， I was starving！ As I approached mile 23， I could see my wife waving a sign She is my biggest fan She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running I was one of the final runners to finish But I finished! And I got a medal In fact， I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had Determined to be myself， move forward， free of shame and worldly labels（世俗标签）， I can now call myself a marathon winner24. A month before the marathon， the author_A. was well trainedB. felt scaredC. made up his mind to runD. lost hope25. Why did the author mention the PE class in his 7th year？_A. To acknowledge the support of his teacherB. To amuse the readers with a funny storyC. To show he was not talented in sportsD. To share a precious memory26. How was the authors first marathon？_A. He made itB. He quit halfwayC. He got the first prizeD. He walked to the end27. What does the story mainly tell us？_A. A man owes his success to his family supportB. A winner is one with a great effort of willC. Failure is the mother of successD. One is never too old to learnC Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that hes an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Steins jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bag. Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts (收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds,plastic bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume. Among the bag makers arguments: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport.And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today. The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic bag use it cancels out. However, longer lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic. Environmentalists dont dispute (质疑)these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.28.What has Steven Stein been hired to do?A. Help increase grocery sales.B. Recycle the waste material.C. Stop things falling off trucks.D. Argue for the use of plastic bags.29. What does the underlined word headwinds in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Bans on plastic bags.B. Effects of city development.C. Headaches caused by garbage.D. Plastic bags hung in trees.30. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic bag makers?A. They are quite expensive.B. Replacing them can be difficult.C. They are less strong than plastic bags.D. Producing them requires more energy.31.What is the best title for the text?A. Plastic, Paper or NeitherB. Industry, Pollution and EnvironmentC. Recycle or Throw AwayD. Garbage Collection and Waste ControlD Many of us love July because its the month when natures berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colourful and sweet jewels from British Columbias fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection. Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc(not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C. When combined with berries or slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer. If you havea juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “soft-serve” creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a childrens party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.32. What does the author seem to like about cherries?A. They contain, protein.B. They are high in vitamin A.C. They have a pleasant taste.D. They are rich in antioxidants.33. Why is fresh lemon juice, used in freezing bananas?A. To make them smell better.B. To keep their colour.C. To speed up their ripening.D. To improve their nutrition.34. What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph?A. A dessert.B. A drink.C. A container.D. A machine.35. From which is the text probably taken?A. A biology textbook.B. A health magazine.C. A research paper.D. A travel brochure.三、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分） Ways to be safe in school School safety issues involve more than violence.
