black slaves. his family moved to cleveland when he was 9. there, a school teacher asked the boy his name. “j.c.,” he replied. she thought he had said “jesse”, and he had a new name. owens ran his first race at the age of 13. after high school, he went to ohio state university. he had to work part-time in order to pay for his education. as a second-year student, in the big ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the olympic games a year later. a week before the big ten meet, owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. his back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. he refused to listen to the suggestion that he give up and said he would try event by event. he did try, and the results are in the record book. the stage was set for owens victories at the olympic games in berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. hitler did not congratulate any of the african-american winners. “it was all right with me,” he said years later. “i didnt go to berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.” having returned from berlin, he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country, either. in fact, he was not honored by the united states until 1976, four years before his death. owens olympic victories made little difference to him. he earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles and dogs. “sure, it bothered me,” he said later. “but at least it was an honest living. i had to eat.” in time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “they have kept me alive over the years,” he once said. “time has stood still for me. that golden moment dies hard.”56. owens got his other name “jesse” when _.a. he went to ohio state university b. his teacher made fun of himc. his teacher took “j.c.” for “jesse” d. he won gold medals in the big ten meet57. in the big ten meet in 1935, owens _.a. hurt his back b. succeeded in setting many recordsc. tried every sports event but failed d. had to give up some events58. it can be inferred from the passage that owens was treated unfairly because _.a. he was not of the right race b. he was the son of a poor farmerc. he didnt shake hands with hitler d. he didnt talk to the us president on the phone59. when owens said, “they have kept me alive over the years”, he meant that the medals _.a. had been sold and the money helped him liveb. had made him become famous in the usc. had encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifed. had kept him busy with all kinds of jobs60. what is the best title of the passage?a. jesse owens, a great american athlete. b. golden moment a life-time struggle.c. making a living as a sportsman. d. how to be a successful athlete.we are supposed to be living in the information age. if we are, then exactly what topic are people so well-informed about? video games? young people are more likely than anyone else to spend long hours beating their way happily through the heavy, trackless electronic jungle (丛林). they grow up with computers, the web, cellphones, hundreds of cable tv channels, and digital electronics in countless forms. in the information age, its easy for people to stick with the topics they know and love. its easy to read blogs that deal with the same topic. some people grow better and better informed about their topics of choice. others just watch, read, or listen to the same story over and over and grow less likely every month to meet with anything new. of course cybersphere (网络空间) is brand new, and things are sure to change. two good developments are all but inevitable. first: theres one specialized field that draws a broad instead of a narrow audience; that widens a persons viewpoint. new pieces will appear every day, around the clock. second: search engines are riding high, but they solve only half the problem. if you know what youre looking for, they help you find it. but people dont only want to search, they want to browse (浏览). the most important solution to the problematic (产生问题的) information age has nothing to do with the web. finally we will get over the idea that playing with computers and the internet is naturally helpful. its true that some schools have made sound educational use of computers and software. but my guess is that american schools would do better if they threw away their pcs and let students fool around somewhere else. schools should be telling students to read books, not to play with computers. 61. from the second passage we can infer that in the information age _.a. its easy for people to choose the topics they know and loveb. some people only care about specific topics and are not interested in learning anything newc. some people know more and more about various topicsd. some people are tired of reading or listening to the same story again and again62. which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?a. young people like to spend long hours in surfing the internet.b. its not difficult to find articles about the same topic on the internet.c. search engines will deal with all the problems because of their high speed.d. one specific field will attract more people and widen their view.63. the main idea of the last paragraph is that _.a. students should be required to read books instead of playing with computersb. the problem of the information age is closely related to the webc. people believe that the computer and the internet are helpfuld. computers and software are put to reasonable use in american schools64. what is the best title of the passage?a. the information age isnt good at all.b. we are supposed to live in the information age.c. the information age benefits students.d. the information age is not a dream any more.a tiny australian mining community erupted in joy after learning that two miners trapped nearly 3,000 feet underground for almost a week were still alive. on monday, rescuers began drilling toward the men, who were trapped last tuesday when a small earthquake led to a rocks collapse. since the collapse, miners had been using explosives to blast a tunnel toward the trapped men, not knowing whether they were dead or alive. but late on sunday afternoon, rescuers microphones heard the voices of the two men 34-year-old todd russell and 37-year-old brant webb. when the rescuers finally managed to communicate with russell and webb, the miners had one request: bacon and eggs. word of their survival sparked joy in beaconsfield, a town of about 3,000 people in the southern australian island state of tasmania. however, the joy was tempered by sympathy for the family of larry knight, whose body was discovered last thursday. but members of knights family were among hundreds of people who gathered at russells home to celebrate on sunday night. “last night, larrys family came to our house with those 200 people and told us how lucky we were and shared our happiness with their grief. “i was grateful,” russells father noel told a reporter. “they were brave people.” rescuers drilled a very small tunnel through to the trapped men and were hoping to give them food and water by late monday, but officials warned that it could take two more days before they were freed. it was not immediately clear how oxygen was reaching the men. 65. who was killed in the collapse according to the passage?a. noel. b. todd russell. c. larry knight. d. brant webb. 66. what is the correct time order of the following events?a. rescuers began drilling toward the two trapped men.b. a small earthquake happened and led to a rocks collapse.c. the voices of the two trapped men were heard by microphone.d. miners used explosives to blast a tunnel toward the trapped men.a. b-c-d-a b. b-d-c-a c. a-c-b-d d. a-b-c-d67. it can be inferred from the passage that _. a. todd russell and brant webb might be freed about late wednesdayb. the miners had been trapped underground for 5 daysc. the miners were alive because of the bacon and eggsd. more than three miners were trapped underground68. hundreds of people gathered at russells house on sunday night mainly because _.a. they went to celebrate the survival of the two minersb. they were anxious to know the information of the two minersc. they all wanted to help the russellsd. they went to interview russells fatherwhen we think of famous scientists and inventors, we immediately think of men such as alexander graham bell, thomas edison and jonas e. salk. this is because we associate famous people with the anglo-saxon race. but what about the afro-american (美国黑人) inventors and scientists? how many men during the first world war owed their lives to garrett morgan who had invented the gas mask? garret morgan also invented the traffic light which saves numerous lives on our streets. daniel hale williams was the first successful heart surgeon. charles drew saved hundreds of thousands of lives during the second world war by his discovery of the ways and means of preserving blood plasma. percy julian helped millions suffering from the excruciating pain of arthritis (关节炎). these men and others should be as easily recognized as bell, edison and salk. america is made up of many different cultures. these cultures have come to enrich and diversify the american way of life. we should not think, because history has neglected to include the background of a particular culture, that these people have an inferior history. we should search for the truth and set the record straight against the slanders (口头诽谤), the stereotypes and false images which have been used to identify these people. we should understand each of the cultures and learn of their specific contributions to americas life story. only after we are taught the complete and accurate history of our great country and learn that the blending of cultures and backgrounds gives us our strength can we go forward on the path to peace.69. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. garret morgan and thomas edison are of the same race.b. daniel hale williams is as famous as graham bell.c. garrett morgan is more famous than salk because of his inventions.d. charles drew is an afro-american.70. according to the passage, traffic lights were most probably invented by a scientist from _.a. britain b. america c. africa d. europe71. what can we learn about americans from the passage?a. people of all cultures have been considered important in america.b. all americans are equal although they come from different cultures.c. everybody should be respected in america because of their specific contributions.d. anyone who has made a contribution to america should be easily recognized.72. the authors main purpose in writing the passage is to tell us _.a. something about afro-americans and their historyb. afro-american inventors and scientists have been neglected in historyc. it is important for all americans to know the history of different culturesd. the contributions of afro-american inventors and scientistsbritish male drivers waste nearly six million hours a year being lost on the road because they are not ready to ask for directions. men who are lost wait an average of 20 minutes before giving up and asking for directions, while women wait only 10 minutes before seeking help, according to a study from the royal automobile club direct insurance. men even stand a “nagging (唠叨) period” of around 10 minutes from their partners before throwing in the towel and stopping to ask the way, the poll showed. based on responses from 2,000 adults, the study also showed: some 64 percent of couples admitted to having arguments over getting lost on the road. only 27 percent of couples plan their journeys before setting off. just 36 percent of couples rely on landmarks and road signs to find their destination. one in four couples still write down basic directions on a bit of scrap paper. rac direct insurance product manager craig mar
