Michael McCarthy climbed to the top of the Willis Tower not long ago. The Tower stands 1451 feet(442 meters) tall, the highest building in the USA.

As he got to the last step, McCarthy almost fell down, but that didn't stop him. The 14-year-old boy finally finished climbing the 2,109 steps and arrived at the top, where he enjoyed

the cheers from the crowd.

“I just want to show people that if a kid with no legs can do it, anyone can do it, ” McCarthy said.

McCarthy, who was born without legs, has to wear prosthetic legs(假肢) and use a set of crutches(拐杖) to walk. But McCarthy has a strong heart. He believes nothing can stop him from achieving his success.

He has been in a karate(空手道) school since he was four years old. When he decided to climb the Willis Tower, his karate teacher, Jeff Kohn, was moved and offered to help train him. They spent more than 10 hours practicing every day. “It seems that he never knows what tiredness is. Sometimes, I was so tired that I asked him to call it a day, ” said Kohn. “But he said he was still full of energy and wanted more exercise.”

Kohn was with McCarthy for the climb. “I saw the last 10 floors—he went faster, ” said Kohn. “ He?s the most hard-working athlete（运动员）I?ve ever trained.”

McCarthy said he was proud of himself and that the Tower now holds special meaning. “ When I'm older, I?ll point to the building and say ? Look at this building I climbed?.” he said. 58. Why did McCarthy decide to climb the Willis Tower?

A. Because the Tower is very special.

B. Because he wanted to set a world record.

A. No man is born wise and learned. B. Where there is a will, there is a way. C. Time waits for no man. D. A little learning is a dangerous thing.

D

Childhood（童年） is a time of fun and games. Many people still remember when they were young, they often played games like hide-and- seek and chess. Playing teaches children how to get with others, and it also helps to exercise the mind and body. However, children today spend most of their time in front of the computer, playing video games.

A recent survey（调查） found that in the USA, children between 8 and 12 spend at least 13 hours a week playing video games or “gaming”. Boys of this age spend even more rime, almost 16 hours a week. Although some people will say that gaming is helpful, it brings many problems as well.

One big problem is that kids who spend most of their time on games might have problems communicating（沟通，交际） with real people. They might have trouble sharing and resolving (解决) problems because they do not practice these skills when sitting alone at a computer.

Another problem is about health. Game players usually sit for hours without doing any exercise. And they might not eat healthily. As a result, they might be out of shape.

Next, game players might have trouble with their lessons. Many of them spend more time playing games than working on their homework. In the end, ___________▲___________.

Finally, it is always possible that the gamers become addicted (成瘾). Some people play four or five hours a day or even all day. This happened to a 28-year-old Korean man. He spent about 50 hours playing an online game without sleeping or eating well. He died while gaming!

This is one example of the dangers of video gaming. It tells us that video gaming, like everything else, should not be done too much. A few hours a week should not hurt, but several hours a day just might be dangerous to your health.

62. Children of 8 to 12 in America spend at least___________ hours a week playing video games.

A. 13 B. 16 C.28 D. 50 63. How many problems about playing video games are mentioned in the passage ?

A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 64. Which of the following is the right sentence for the blank (空白处) in Paragraph 5 ?

A. they might be weak in their subjects at school B. they might lose their friends C. they might stop playing games D they might become ill 65. What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage?

A. Video gaming is good for people. B. Video gaming might be a dangerous thing. C. Childhood is a time of fun and games.

D. Children should learn how to get along with others.

Future and Today

It is well known that everyone has his own dream as well as his own future. But do you know what future really is ? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure（珍爱） every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.

There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.” Then what?s time? Time is something that we can?t see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeable. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more valuable（宝贵的） than money, because when money is spent, we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless(无价的).

We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.

As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.” If you waste today, you will regret（后悔） tomorrow. So from now on, work hard. Tomorrow will be better, and your future will be brighter. Remember: “No pains, no gains.” Today?s hard work is the cause of tomorrow?s harvest.

Title: Future and Today Opinions Supporting details Everyone has his own 76 as well as his own future. Future is now. If we want to have a bright 77 , we should know the

78 of time and make every minute 79 . Time is 81 , but time is even more valuable than 80 is money, because when money is spent, we can earn it back. But

priceless. 82 time will return no more. Today?s hard work 84 us tomorrow?s harvest. As Be83 of today students, we should never put off what can be done today till tomorrow and we should try our 85 to do everything well. 7
