  C

  I had a very special teacher in high school many years ago. Her husband died of a heart attack. About a week after his death, she shared some of her insights with us.

  The class was nearly over. She said, “Before class is over, I would like to share with all of you an important thought.”

  “Each of us is put here on Earth to learn, share, love, appreciate and give of ourselves. We must make the most out of every single day.”

  Her eyes began to water and she went on, “So I would like you all to make me a promise. From now on, on your way to school, or on your way home, find something beautiful to notice. It doesn’t have to be something you see – it could be a good smell or the sound of the gentle wind.”

  “Please look for these things, and cherish them. They are what is in life. We must pay attention to noticing them, for at any time it can all be taken away.”

  Every once in a while, I think of that teacher and try to appreciate all of those things that sometimes we don’t notice.

  Take notice of something special you see on your lunch hour today. Walk along the beach at sunset. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we regret, but the things we didn’t do.

  33. In the author’s eyes, the high school teacher was ______.

  A. special B. weak C. happy D. strict

  34. The word “insight” in the first paragraph means ______.

  A. promise B. thought C. love D. thing

  35. The author’s teacher did NOT suggest ______.

  A. making the most out of every single day

  B. finding something beautiful to notice

  C. cherishing even very little things

  D. regretting anything that we did

  36. The best title for the story is ______.

  A. My high school days B. Making a promise

  C. My insights of life D. My special teacher

  D

  It is all about excitement, speed, and entertainment. It is the biggest international event in winter sports—the Winter Olympic Games. Guess which city will be the host in 2022? The two candidates, Beijing (jointly with Zhangjiakou in Hebei) and Almaty in Kazakhstan are waiting to find out who will win the bid.

  The International Olympic Committee Evaluation Commission (评估团) visited Beijing and Zhangjiakou from March 24 to 28 to see whether the two cities meet the standards for hosting the Games. The final host city will be announced on July 31 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

  “Our visit shows that Beijing is able to host a successful 2022 Olympic Winter Games,” said Alexander Zhukov, the chief of the commission.

  Although Zhukov said the same thing about Almaty during his visit to the city earlier, “it seems that Beijing has a bigger chance”, commented Xinhua. If Beijing wins, it will be the first city in history to organize both summer and winter Olympic Games.

  The nearly perfect organization of the 2008 Summer Games proved the city’s abilities, according to the report. The city would make use of venues (比赛地点) and infrastructures (基本设施) constructed back then for the Winter Games, showing a spirit of sustainable (可持续的) development. Beijing plans to host most of the ice events, including figure skating, speed skating and ice hockey, in six existing venues including the Water Cube aquatics center.

  Snow events will be held in Chongli County in Zhangjiakou. The county, about an hour’s ride from Beijing, has over four months’ snowfall a year, which would provide enough snow for the competitions. The high forest coverage makes snow remain easier. Moreover, the average winter temperature there is suitable for the Winter Olympic Games.

  But a problem may get in the way—smog (雾霾). It will be a disadvantage for Beijing.

  Competition for holding the Olympics is always strong, because it influences the host city and its people deeply.

  “If Beijing wins, it will help improve transportation infrastructure in the two cities and reduce Beijing’s air pollution,” said Beijing mayor Wang Anshun. Around 600,000 more jobs will be created. The events will also encourage more young people to take part in winter sports.

  37. Where will snow events be probably held according to the report?

  A. In Beijing. B. In Almaty. C. In Zhangjiakou. D. In Kazakhstan.

  38. What is the biggest challenge for Beijing to host the Winter Olympic Games?

  A. Venues and infrastructures. B. Experience.

  C. People’s support. D. pollution.

  39. What will the Winter Olympic Games NOT bring to Beijing?

  A. More and more people will have chances to find jobs.

  B. More and more teenagers will be interested in winter sports.

  C. Beijing still needs to build more venues and infrastructures for the Games.

  D. The traffic situation between Beijing and Zhangjiakou will be greatly improved.

  40. Which of the following is TRUE?

  A. It takes about one hour to ride a bike to Chongli from Beijing.

  B. Winning the Olympic bid won’t influence local people’s lives.

  C. Beijing will be the only city which hosts the Olympic Games twice.

  D. The city for hosting the 2022 Winter Olympic Games hasn’t been decided.

  Benjamin Franklin is one of the greatest miracles in American history. Although he never received a formal education, he made important contributions in many fields, including literature, journalism, science, diplomacy and education.

  Early Years

  Franklin, one of seventeen children, was born in Boston on January 6, 1706. After leaving school at the age of ten, he spent two years working for his father before learning printing from his elder brother. When he was seventeen, Franklin left Boston and traveled to Philadelphia, hoping to open his own print shop. Once he worked as a printer, Franklin began producing a newspaper and an annual magazine called Poor Richard's Almanack. It was very popular and people considered him as a talented writer.

  Man of science

  When Franklin was forty-two, he left his printing business to devote himself to science. He proved to be successful again. During his lifetime, Franklin invented the lightning rod (避雷针) and a new type of stove, confirmed the laws of electricity and contributed to the scientific understanding of earthquakes. With all these achievements, Franklin is best remembered for his career in politics.

  Statesman and Diplomat

  Franklin played an important role in drafting (起草) the Declaration of Independence《独立宣言》, won French support during the War and drafted the United States Constitution (宪法). In his later years, he was ambassador (大使) first to England and then to France. Even before President Washington, Franklin was considered "The father of his country".

  Franklin wrote the first part of The Autobiography in 1771 at the age of sixty-five. Though never completed, his Autobiography, full of his own opinions and suggestions, provides not only a record of his achievements but also an understanding of his character.
