26、 School days are supposed to be the best days of your life and part of that experience usually involves some unforgettable physical activities. I asked some people to give me their memories of what happened to them on the sports field and beyond, and this is what they told me.
Cup winners
When I was about ten, the football team from our year unexplainably made it to the cup final of the local schools’ league. I say unexplainably because I only remember us losing nearly every match we played. Anyway, in the final I set up the winning goal, a brilliant cross to my mate David who headed the ball in just before the final whistle. I still have a photograph of the team holding the cup.
Forest hike
I remember having to lead a group of eight boys on a school expedition for the best part of two days when I was a teenager. Even though we got lost at one point, I managed to keep them all together and get them from one end of a large forest to the other and back by sheer(纯粹的) force of will. I was chosen to be the leader, I think, because I was the only one who knew how to read a map!
When we arrived back at the campsite, we found out that all the other groups had cheated and hitched(搭便车) most of the way instead… I felt a bit stupid, but also rather proud of myself at the same time for having done it properly.
Learning to swim, learning to drown
I learned to swim comparatively late, I suppose. I was maybe nine years old but my brother had a painful experience which nearly put him off for life. We lived in the USA for a while and had access to a university pool where the coaches had trained the American Olympic team. In those days, though, their idea of teaching kids how to swim was to tie a can to their ankles with a bit of string, throw them in the deep end and shout “Swim!”. I am surprised my brother survived at all. He could only have been about six at the time.
【1】The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. tips on taking part in outdoor activities
B. how people consider physical activities
C. why people love outdoor activities
D. people’s experiences of physical activities
【2】What did the first person do in the school’s cup final?
A. He scored the winning goal.
B. He provided the pass for the final goal.
C. He blew the whistle at eh end of the game.
D. He lost every game in the season.
【3】The underlined word “expedition” in the third paragraph has the same meaning to “________”.
A. match B. deal C. trip D. research
【4】It can be learned that when the third person was young, ________.
A. he learned swimming from the same coach as his elder brother
B. the swimming coach’s teaching method was rather inconsiderate
C. his family lived near a university pool for about ten years
D. the American Olympic team had no swimming pool of its own
27、 At Mrs. Jennings’ handsome house, in London.
While waiting for dinner, Marianne Dashwood wrote a letter very quickly. Elinor Dashwood noticed a large “W” in the address. Marianne rang the bell to have someone post it immediately.
After dinner, there was a loud knock at the door. Marianne cried, “Oh, it’s Willoughby!” and seemed to throw herself into his arms when Colonel Brandon came in. She was so surprised that she immediately left the room.
Elinor made the tea for Colonel Brandon. He did not stay long.
The next morning, upon arriving at home after shopping, Marianne flew upstairs.
“No letter has been left here for me since we went out. How strange!” she said, in a low and disappointed voice.
About a week later, they saw Mr. Willoughby’s card on the table when they came in from morning’s drive. He had been there while the ladies were out.
“He will call again tomorrow,” said Elinor.
Marianne decided to stay behind the next morning, when the others went out. One look at her sister when they returned was enough to tell Elinor that Willoughby had not called.
Colonel Brandon came again to tea and had short private conversation with Elinor.
“Your sister’s engagement to Mr. Willoughby is very well known.”
“It cannot be well known,” returned Elinor, “for her own family does not know it.”
“I am sorry but I did not realize it was a secret. I came to ask, is everything decided? Is it possible to? Excuse me, Miss Dasnwood. I believe I have been wrong in saying so much.”
From these words Elinor was sure of something, yet she knew he could never be successful with her.
Over the next three or four days, Willoughby neither came nor wrote.
One evening at a party, Marianne suddenly saw Willoughby standing in deep conversation with a young woman, whose name was Grey, a rich lady.
“He is there! Oh! Why does he not look at me? Why can’t I speak to him?”
“Marianne,” said Elinor, “perhaps he hasn’t seen you yet.”
At last he came to them.
“Willoughby, what’s wrong? Did you not get my letters? Won’t you look at me?”
After a moment’s pause, he spoke. “I came by last Tuesday but unfortunately did not see you. My card was not lost, I hope.”
“Have you not received my notes?” cried Marianne. “Tell me, Willoughby; tell me, what’s the matter?”
Quiet and embarrassed, he said nothing more and turned quickly away to Miss Grey. Marianne, turning white and unable to stand, fell into her chair.
【1】Before the party, Marianne badly desired .
A.to write a letter to Willoughby B.to receive Willoughby's card
C.to be visited by Willoughby D.to be invited by Willoughby
【2】The underlined word “something” in Para.14 refers to_______.

C.Willoughby’s love for Marianne D.the Dashwoods’ love for money
【3】What do you know about Willoughby?
A.He didn’t call Marianne until the party to give her a surprise.
B.He was too shy to declare in public his deep love for Marianne.
C.He was already on the side of another woman with more money.
D.He felt disappointed that Brandon was between him and Marianne.
【4】How do you find Marianne in the story?
A.More selfish than kind. B.More strong than weak.
C.More calm than impatient. D.More sensitive than sensible.
28、Unsurprisingly, people who are very busy also tend to be very successful and knowledgeable, so it’s in your interest to befriend with them. But how do you talk to such busy people in order to make friends with them? 【1】 the same rules apply. However, there are a few specific rules for talking with busy people in particular.
Remember that even busy people are social creatures. That people are busy doesn’t mean they don’t want to chat with others or they don’t enjoy it. 【2】 Busy people can be very social and friendly. Like anyone else, they have a deep-seated need to socialize and make friends.
【3】 They know they’re capable and in demand, but it doesn’t mean they expect others to prove themselves to them. The best use of your time talking with busy people is not in trying to impress them. Focus on making a conversation and creating a connection, not on proving yourself.
Spend more time in their field. When dealing with busy people, since their time is in high demand, your favorite topics take a slight backseat to theirs. It usually makes sense to make sure they find the topics you talk about meaningful. 【4】
Get to the point. 【5】 Their time is highly valuable. So they don’t need you to sugar coat your messages that much, they just want you to say what you have to say.
A．Don’t try to prove yourself.
B．Don’t hesitate to change your plans.
C．They just don’t have that much time for it.
D．It’s comfortable for them to chat with people who they like.
E．Mostly, talking to busy people is the same as talking to any others.
F．Once you’ve found a topic they enjoy talking about, you should explore that topic.
G．Busy people have little patience for communicators who beat around the bush.
29、 Eggs make for a delicious meal, and for the past few years, we’ve been able to enjoy them guilt-free. Now, they are declared as “bad egg” again.
Researchers from Northwestern University collected data from six previous studies that tracked the health of 29, 615 adults for about 18 years on average. After gathering results from the various studies, they concluded that 300 milligrams of cholesterol (胆固醇) per day slightly raised a person’s risk of heart disease. One egg contains about 186 milligrams of cholesterol.
“These participants weren’t given periodic questionnaires, they were given one questionnaire,” says Lauren Slayton, a nutritionist. “That’s like drawing conclusions about someone’s fashion sense by what they wore 20 years ago.” No one followed up to see if the diet reports were accurate or to find out whether people changed their diet.
Frank Hu, a professor of nutrition at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health, told NPR: “So much data have already been published on this topic, which generally show that low-to-moderate egg consumption (no more than one egg per day) is not associated with increased risk of heart attack.” Plus, there are also many other risk factors that contribute to heart disease.
Before you quit your breakfast favorite, you should know that this research is far from the last word on eggs. In other words, don’t feel like you have to drop eggs from your diet based on one study. If you’re concerned about your cholesterol, discuss your diet with your doctor—and consider your exercise routine and other health factors, too. If your heart risk is rising, you may want to check out the best—and worst—diets for your heart.
【1】What is the writing purpose of the text?
A.To test what previous studies found.
B.To discourage people from eating eggs every day.
C.To measure how much cholesterol an egg contains.
D.To show the link between egg-eating and health risk.
【2】What can we know from Lauren Slayton’s words?
A.The findings are out of date. B.This kind of research is limited.
C.No one cares about the research. D.The results should be tested again.
【3】What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph?
A.Consult the doctor often. B.Seek for professional aid.
C.Do exercise on a daily basis. D.Have a sharp mind in your diet.
【4】What is the author’s attitude toward the research?
A.Cold. B.Uncertain. C.Doubtful. D.Positive.
