It is reported that regular sports are not completely safer than extreme ones. Here is an introduction to three new extreme sports. ·Ostrich(鸵鸟)Racing South Africa and Jacksonville, Florida, USA are the two homes of ostrich racing. Why do some guys like to attend this extreme sport? The show is that sometimes four or even ten ostriches are marching forward and at a time, and this is seriously strange. For the supporters, there's a chance to ride an ostrich. Although if you don't want to be bitten or kicked, you can use carts（木车）like ostriches for racing instead. ·BASE Jumping BASE represents several words—Buildings, Spans，Earth Spans mean bridges and Earth means cliffs(悬崖), but then the beauty of BASE jumping is that it's just launching(发射)yourself from anywhere possible with a parachute(降落伞)ready to go. Although BASE jumping dates back to 1978, it has been popular quite a lot recently because there are pieces of videos on the Internet and every jump is a new possibility. ·Bird Man Suits The bird man suit has a few names—the flying squirrel suit, wing-suit and bat-suit, it's a specially designed suit that lets you glide(滑翔) through the air at controlled speeds—adding a little extra to your usual skydiving experience. This is probably the closest we are going to fly. If combining(结合)this with BASE jumping, you'll get some serious death-defying(挑战死亡的) excited feelings. 26. According to the passage, why is ostrich racing seriously strange? A. Because ostriches may bite and kick people. B. Because supporters have chances to ride ostriches. C. Because four or even ten ostriches are marching forward at a time. D. Because it has two homes, South Africa and Jacksonville, Florida, USA. 27. The following places are suitable for BASE jumping except ▲ . A. the Little Mermaid B. Mount Fuji C. the Leaning Tower of Pisa D. the Tower Bridge 28. What is NOT the function of the bird man suit? A. It helps control flying speed. B. It helps squirrels and bats fly. C. It helps people experience gliding through the air. D. It can help people get serious death-defying excited feelings. 26. C 27. A28. B B It was the first day of class. Two of her new ESL (English as a Second Language) classmates wanted to know where Tara was from. They were both from Korea. Because Tara looked Korean, one of the women asked Tara, in English, if she was from Korea. Tara replied, "No, I'm not." Then the women took turns asking Tara if she was from Japan, or Thailand, or China. To each question, Tara answered them a simple no. Laughing, one woman said to the other, "She's not from anywhere!" The two went to their desks, talking to each other in Korean. The next day, the teacher divided the students into groups of four. The students in each group asked introductory(介绍的)questions of each other. A student in Tara's group asked her, "Where are you from?" Tara answered that she was from Korea. The two women who had questioned Tara the day before were sitting only a few feet away. Both of them heard Tara's answer. "Aha!" they both exclaimed, "You ARE from Korea!" Tara smiled and said yes. Then she apologized(道歉)to both of them for lying the day before. She told them that she had not wanted to get into a Korean conversation with them. It had been her experience that many ESL students continued to speak their mother language in ESL class, and Tara had not come to ESL class to practice her Korean. In her opinion， ESL students should try to speak English only. "I agree." said Rose. "You're 100 percent right." agreed Jenny, "Rose and I must stop speaking Korean to each other. Right，Rose?" Rose nodded，and then said something in Korean. All three women laughed. The next half a year, Tara became friendly with both women, although she never spoke a word of Korean to them during class or break. 29. The underlined word "exclaimed" in Paragraph 3 means " ▲ ". A. cried in fear B. shouted in surprise C. screamed with joy D. announced with excitement 30. According to the passage, we can infer(推断)that ▲ . A. Tara said she was from Korea because she knew the student in her group was also from Korea B. Tara said she was from Korea because she wanted to make friends with the student in her group C. Tara said she wasn't from Korea because she didn't like Rose and Jenny and wasn't willing to speak Korean with them D. Tara said she wasn't from Korea because she didn't want Rose and Jenny to speak Korean with her the following days 31. What can be the best title of this passage? A. Let's Speak English B. An ESL Class C. Don't Tell Lies D. Three Korean Women 29. B30. D31. A C【2014江苏镇江】 Jack thought himself a basketball fan. He watched quite a lot of American NBA basketball games. Not only did he watch them, he spent much of his free time playing on the court too. Then came the final year of his middle school. All of his regular teammates stopped showing up on the court because they were simply too busy preparing for the high school entrance exam to play. He was, of course, under much stress himself, like everyone else. A good exam result meant a good high school; a mediocre(平庸的)score meant a mediocre school. Much was at stake. However, he loved basketball so much that he still found time to play, this time with a group of guys who were said to have skipped classes(逃课)before. Some of his teachers started worrying about him. They asked his mother to go to school to let her know that Jack was hanging out with problem kids. When his mother returned home that day, she wanted to talk to Jack. Knowing the purpose of her visit to the school, Jack thought his mother would punish him for befriending those bad guys. To his surprise, his mother was not angry with him at all. She wanted to hear her son's side of the story. So Jack told his mother about what he knew of Simon and Peter. Simon's parents were badly ill; Peter's father had lost his job. They both seemed to Jack to be normal kids. Jack's mother thought for a moment, then went on to say that she was OK with her son playing with them and that she and her son should think of ways to help these kids. Soon Jack's mum introduced some part-time jobs to Simon and Peter, which they accepted. She believed in her son and cared about those who were less lucky. Jack's basketball friends and he have left for different places, but they still keep in touch. He knows Peter is now a manager of a local bank. Simon is currently a freshman at a university. Sadly, it is impossible to get together to play basketball again, but whenever they get on the phone, they talk about it all the time. 32. After Jack's mother came home from school, she ▲ . A. was angry with him B. told him what his teachers had said C. asked him to keep away from problem kids D. was patient enough to listen to her son's words 33.

Have you ever searched for Wi-Fi when you are at restaurants or hotels? The answers will probably be "Yes". Most of us want Wi-Fi everywhere as if we can't live without it. But we can only use free Wi-Fi in some public places. We still have to spend some money accessing(连接)the Internet at most time. Here comes a piece of good news. A rich, powerful organization in the USA called the Media Development Investment Fund (MDIF) has decided to change the age of online computing (计算) completely by giving free Wi-Fi to every person on Earth. They will send up hundreds of satellites into low Earth orbit(轨道)in 2015. This is because they have made a survey and found that only 60% of the world's population have been able to get information on the Internet. And this is also because many countries are unable to offer people the necessary infrastructure(基础设施)to access the web. We can expect to use free Wi-Fi everywhere in the near future. 阅读以上信息，用恰当的词完成下面的格，每空一词。 Present situation ●Many of us want Wi-Fi everywhere as if we can't live without it. ●Accessing the Internet 61 us some money.

It's a nice way for parents to speak highly of their children when they make progress. ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ ▲ One possible version: Parents’ encouragement is good for their children’s growth. It’s a nice way for parents to speak highly of their children when they make progress. It is very common for parents to buy their children presents. For example, when Li Jiang made progress in his study, his parents bought him stationery, a mobile phone and so on. After Li Jiang won prizes in the competitions, his parents took him to the restaurant for a big dinner. When Li Jiang did some housework, he could get some extra pocket money from his parents. I don’t think it’s really a good way for Li Jiang’s parents to give him something or money as encouragement. I don’t want my parents to buy me something when I’ve done very well in my study. I hope they can give me more chances to decide what I can do in my free time. If so, I will be more confident to do everything better. And it’s good for my growth.
