Last Friday my brother and I were driving home together after doing some shopping and gave our attention to an interesting conversation. Because of this distraction (分心)my brother took a wrong turn.

Unfortunately, the wrong turn took us towards a bridge and we had no way to turn back. Unwillingly, my brother paid the bridge fee and drove on. He was clearly frustrated by the mistake and the needless waste of $4.

to figure out which way we would go next but my brother pulled over and asked the guy if he needed any help. And he did. He had a flat tire and needed a tool to get it off.

My brother gave him a wrench, and then began to help him change the flat. The young man said that this had been a bad week for him: earlier he had gotten into a minor car accident, and now this flat on his way home from work. But he called us “a breath of fresh air” and kept thanking us because he really would have been stuck if we hadn?t come along.

After we finished the job he thanked us again and pulled out $20 from his pocket and tried to give it to us. “No,” I said. “We were never supposed to even get on that bridge, we took a wrong turn. But now we know why we did. It was to help you. Thank you for turning our mistake into an opportunity to serve.”

What I loved most was that my brother was able to see a chance to help. His reaction in the situation is a lesson for everyone and we felt so good the rest of the day. 56. When did the author and his brother notice the young man who had a flat tire? A. Before they arrived at a bridge.

even one meal on the family table. She and her husband are among Bangladesh?s poorest: those with no land, no wealth and little hope of breaking out of hunger and poverty. But a new programme to unlock the entrepreneurial(创业的) spirit of Bangladeshi women has transformed her life.

Food Aid Brings Fresh Water To Nepalese Village

She sent us this personal account of one day of meetings.

Naps—short sleeps during the day—may improve memory, experts said recently.

New research conducted by brain researcher Avi Karni of the University of Haifa in Israel explores the possibility that naps help lock in sometimes long-term memories. “We still don't know exactly how memory system works during sleep, but the results of this research suggest it is possible to speed up memory consolidation(巩固),” Karni said. Long-term memory refers to memories that stay with us for years, such as “what” memories -- a car accident that happened yesterday-- or “how to” memories, such as one's learned ability to play the pianos.

Karni, also one of the authors of the study published in a recent issue of the journal Nature Neuroscience, instructed participants to learn a difficult set of finger games, then divided the study subjects into two groups: one that napped for an hour, and one that didn't. The people who took an afternoon snooze showed obvious improvement in their performance by that evening.

“After a night?s sleep the two groups were at the same level, but the group that slept in the afternoon improved much faster than the group that stayed awake,” Karni said. And the study also showed just how much faster a 90-minute nap could help lock in long-term memories. “Daytime sleep can shorten the time ?how to? memory weakens and forgetting starts,”Karni said, “Instead of 6 to 8 hours, the brain consolidated the memory during the 90-minute nap.” 64. We can learn from the article that ________.

A. the new research has discovered the memory process during the sleep B. taking a nap helps improve both long-term and short-term memories

C. Karni?s findings are based on comparisons between two groups of participants D. people who take a nap will never forget “how to” skills once they are learned 65. The underlined word “subjects” in paragraph 3 probably mean________. A. the people being tested in the study B. the people carrying out the study C. the topics being discussed in the study D. the areas of knowledge being studied 66. The text is most probably taken from ________. A. a newspaper report B. a library guide C. a project handbook D. a science site

HANGZHOU, China — Millions of Chinese basketball fans who were upset about the retirement of Yao Ming, are excited to see another even more shining star, Jeremy Lin, rising from the N.B.A and becoming a household name all across China.

“We are amazed by Lin Shuhao?s magic performance and should cheer him on,” one Internet user wrote.

“His sport shirts have sold out, even including the counterfeit(仿制品) ones,” said Zheng Xiaojun, a 24-year-old clerk.

Lin?s amazing success over the last month has caught the imagination of the Chinese. He has been particularly popular here in northern Zhejiang province, from which his grandmother went to Taiwan in the late 1940s.

Cai Qi, a well-known micro blogger, posted a message on micro blog over the weekend

本卷第7页（共15页）

stating that Lin?s hometown is Jiaxing, a city near Hangzhou where Lin?s grandmother grew up.

Cai Qi?s nephew Yu Guohua, a 56-year-old factory worker, is Lin?s closest relative still living in northern Zhejiang. He said in a telephone interview that Lin had come to play basketball with the Jiaxing High School team last May and had been surrounded by admirers.

Yu said he did not have a chance to meet Lin in the crowd, but managed to speak with his family. “His father was very supportive of Lin?s playing basketball, but his grandmother was not, for fear he would be injured,” Yu said.

Lin may owe his height, 6 feet 3 inches, to his grandmother?s family, Yu said. Chen Weiji, the father of Lin?s grandmother, was well over 6 feet and all of Chen?s children were tall as well, he said.

The N.B.A. believes that 300 million people in China play basketball. The retirement last year of Yao Ming took its main Asian draw away from the N.B.A. But Lin?s appearance has helped the league remain a hot topic of Chinese online chatter.

67.Why does Lin Shuhao appeal especially to people in northern Zhejiang ? A. He was born in Zhejiang.

B. His sports shirts are made in Zhejiang. C. He once visited Zhejiang.

D. His grandmother grew up in Zhejiang. 68. We can learn from the text that ________. A. Lin once played on Jiaxing High School team B. All Lin?s relatives moved to Taiwan 60 years ago C. Lin?s grandmother didn?t expect him to be a player D. Lin?s father loved playing basketball 69. Lin?s success in N.B.A has ________.

A. attracted more Chinese children to play basketball as a career B. drawn Chinese people?s attention back to the league C. helped his hometown develop sports shirts business D. helped his hometown attract more foreign visitors 70. Which is the best title of the report? A. The Secret of Lin?s Success B. Lin, A New Focus in China C. Lin and His Family D. Chinese Players in N.B.A

“So, what are you doing after graduation?” 71 However, you have to make up your mind as your last high school year begins. Whether your plans include college, heading straight for the workforce, or taking a year off, here are some practical tips to prepare yourself for the journey.

Going to College

Some people know from an early age exactly what they want to be and how they plan to get

本卷第8页（共15页）

there. 72 According to a recent survey, 75% of students change their majors after they enter college. After all, school is also not just about careers and getting a high-paying job after graduation — it?s a place for learning about yourself and the world.

Selecting a School

If college is in your future, you need to plan. Start by asking yourself questions about your preferences. 73 Once you?ve narrowed down your choices, ask the schools to send you literature or visit their websites.

Getting a Job

Maybe you?ve decided that college isn?t for you — right now, anyway. If you want to join the workforce, opportunities are out there for people who don?t have degrees. Some products-selling or service industry organizations offer training programs to high school graduates. Search the classified ads in the newspaper and do some Internet research. 74

Taking Time Off

What if you intend to go to college but just don?t feel ready to start yet, for whatever reason? __75 This practice is common in some countries, like the United Kingdom, where it?s called a “gap year”. Even if you decide not to apply to college, it can be a great idea to take a year to do something you may not have an opportunity to do again. Lots of volunteer organizations would welcome your time and energy and would provide you with a wonderful learning experience.

A. You might want to get a high-paid job first. B. You might want to take a year off to pause.

C. This is the fact that young people have to take into consideration. D. Most large companies list their job openings on their websites. E. Not all of us are so sure of our plans, though, and that?s OK too.

F. Many juniors and seniors get bored answering that question over and over.

G. Ask friends in college about their schools and other schools they?re familiar with.

In the winter vacation, I paid a visit a mountain village in a suburb of Handan. No sooner had I got off the bus when I was greatly surprising to see all the changes. It was far better than I had been expected. Now every family can drink cleanly running water. The villagers needn?t carry water himself any more. Firewood is no longer used for cooking. Marsh gas, a new cheap clean energy, make it very convenient to cook and light. As all the families have color TV set, they can enjoy plays at home. It impressed me most was that the best building in a village was the school. I hope the mountain village will become better and better.
