21、A beer bottle thrown from the stands landed near Usain Bolt in the moments before the 100-meter final Sunday night in London.
As Bolt and seven other competitors ducked into their starting crouches, a bottle sailed from the first row of the stands at Olympic Stadium.
It harmlessly bounced in the lane belonging to Yohan Blake and didn’t appear to cause a distraction(分心) to the runners, who started a moment later. The thrower’s lack of distance was a blessing. Had he gathered tips from the competitors of the hammer throw(链球) competition, which was taking place in the infield at the same time as the 100 final, the bottle could have hit one of the competitors. It ended up landing a few feet from Blake (lane5).
Edith Bosch, a female Dutch judoka who won a bronze medal earlier during the Olympics, claimed that the man who threw the bottle was sitting near her and that she “beat” him. Whether that’s true or the hyperbole (夸张的语句) of an aggravated athlete was unclear in the minutes after the incident. Pictures show a group of Dutch athletes sitting behind the starting area.
Police took the man into custody(监护). He will appear in court on Monday morning.
Neither Bolt nor Blake said they knew of the incident until they were informed by reporters. “I don’t know who would have done that,” Bolt said.
Gatlin was aware of it but implied it was only a slight distraction. “I didn’t know what it was,” he said, according to the BBC, “but when you’re in those blocks, the whole stadium is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.”
【1】How many exact athletes are mentioned in the text?
A. Two B. Four C. Seven D. Eleven
【2】What is the text mainly about?
A. Usain Bolt along with seven other competitors
B. A female Dutch judoka sitting behind the starting area.
C. The lane belonging to Yohan Blake before 100 final.
D. A beer bottle thrown at Usain Bolt before 100 final.
【3】What’s the writer’s attitude towards the athletes for the 100-meter final?
A. Critical B. Doubtful
C. Disapproving D. Positive
22、Nearly all of us have a bad habit, whether we know it or not. Some people say they want to get rid of it but don't know the proper ways. Here's some advice on how to get rid of bad habits.
Make a list. Write down all the reasons why you want to stop a certain behavior，how it's hurting you and why to get rid of it, this will help a lot. Look at that list regularly.
Join in other activities. It's wise of you to do something else when you want to stop your bad habit. If you get angry easily, for example, you can practice having a deep breath or going for a walk.
Give yourself a present. Before you take action against a bad habit, decide what you'll do to celebrate it if you reach your goal.

23、Former Irish President Mary Robinson was just making a polite conversation with an Ethiopian teenager about her wedding day. The 16yearold had already been married for a year. “She looked at me with the saddest eyes and said, ‘I had to drop out of school.’ ” Robinson said in a telephone interview. “That conveyed to me the reality.” said Robinson, the first woman to serve as Ireland’s president and former U. N. High Commissioner for Human Rights. “Her life, as far as she is concerned, had more or less ended.”
Robinson said keeping girls in school was one of the most important things policymakers could do to address the coming challenges of an everincreasing population, predicted by the United Nations to reach 7 billion soon. “European countries are concerned about aging populations, but this is much less of an issue than the huge number of people which we are going to see over the next 40 years when the population goes from 7 billion to 9 billion,” she said. “Almost all of that increase will be in poor developing countries, so that we have a very big challenge.”
Family planning experts worry in particular about the future population explosion in SubSaharan Africa. In May, the United Nations projected the world population would reach 9.3 billion in 2050 and 10.1 billion by 2100. Much of that growth will come from Africa, where the population is growing at 2.3 percent a year—more than double Asia’s 1 percent growth rate. If that rate stays consistent, which is not certain, Africa’s population will reach 3.6 billion by 2100 from the present 1 billion.
Joel Cohen, a professor of population studies at Rockefeller University and Columbia University in New York, said universal secondary education offered a way to reduce population in high birth rate regions. In addition to providing information about birth control, a secondary education teaches women to reduce their own fertility, improve the health of their children and allows them to move from a mindset of having many children in the hope that some will survive to improve the quality of each child’s life, Cohen wrote in the journal Nature.
【1】In the first paragraph, the author introduces his topic by________.
A．explaining the author’s opinions
B．giving an example
C．describing the poor education system
D．coming straight to the topic
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A．Robinson is happy after talking to the Ethiopian girl.
B．Robinson is a successful expert in population studies.
C．Robinson encourages female education.
D．Robinson is worried about the population growth.
【3】What is Joel Cohen’s view about secondary education?
A．It can change people’s parenting ideas.
B．It reduces aging population.
C．It makes people pay more attention to education.
D．It provides basic knowledge of health.
【4】According to the passage, the most important way to control high population growth is ________.
A．let girls go away from Africa
B．keep girls in families
C．let young girls remain single
D．keep girls in school
24、 Do you love holidays but hate the increase weight that follows? You are not alone. Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. Many people, however, are worried about the weight that comes along with these delicious foods.
