The Olympics were the most famous of the four Pan-Hellenic Games of ancient Greece. They were held at Olympia, beginning in approximately 776 B.C. The Games were banned in 393 A.D. by the Roman Christian emperor Theodosius, who considered them pagan festivals.
The Olympics, held every four years, were celebrated as solemn religious festivals, complete with sacrifices to Greek gods. Truces were declared as Greek city-states were invited to send their best athletes to compete.
Track events included the stade race – the ancient version of a sprint – as participants ran from one end of the track to the other (approximately 200 meters). There was also a two-stade race (approximately 400 meters), as well as a long-distance run (ranging from seven to 24 stades).
Field events, which resembled their modern equivalents, included the long jump, discus, shot put and javelin. The five-sport pentathlon included wrestling along with the discus, javelin, long jump and a sprint.
Olympic Games also featured boxing, equestrian events and pankration, a combination of boxing and wrestling.
Contrary to the spirit of gentlemanly amateurism that prevailed when the modern Olympic Games began, ancient Olympians prized victory highly. Olympic champions expected, and often received, great rewards from their home cities. Indeed, winners often lived the rest of their lives at public expense. As the Greek poet Pindar wrote, “For the rest of his life the victor enjoys a honey-sweet calm.”

【江苏省扬大附中2012-2013学年高一下学期期中考试】
When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, "Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out, you'll have something to rely on." Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls.
The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom," I don't know how to use a computer," she admits.
Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says." I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease."
But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up – again – and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me?' about something or other," she insists. "It doesn't do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be."
67. Why did Mary feel regretful?
A. She didn't achieve her ambition. B. She didn't take care of her mother.
C. She didn't follow her mother's advice. D. She didn't complete her high school.
68. We can know that before 1995 Mary
A. had two books published B. supported the JDRF by writing
C. knew how to use a computer D. received many career awards
69. Mary's second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her .
A. remembrance of her mother B. successful show business
C. service for an organization D. living with diabetes
70. When Mary received the life-changing news, she .
A. began a balanced diet B. lost control of herself
C. tried to get a treatment D. behaved in an adult way
67.【答案】C
【试题解析】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Only recently，when she began to write Growing Up Again，did she regret ignoring her mom，‘I don’t know how to use a computer,’ she admits. ” 直到最近,当她开始写《再次长大》,她后悔忽略她的妈妈,“我不知道如何使用电脑,”她承认。故选C。
68.【答案】D
【试题解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“The show business thing worked out，of course. In her career，Mary won many awards. ”演艺圈的活起作用了,当然，在她的职业生涯中,玛丽赢得了许多奖项, 故选D。
69.【答案】D
【试题解析】细节理解题。根据第三段“her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes ”， 她的第二本书描写一个获奖女演员的生活少些，而更多的是关于患有糖尿病的生活，故选D。
70.【答案】B
【试题解析】细节理解题。根据第四段“In a childlike act，she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts. Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up again—and take control of her diabetes，not let it control her. ”孩子气地，她离开医院，犒劳自己一盒甜甜圈。几年之后，她才意识到她已经长大——控制她的糖尿病，而不是让它控制她。故选B。
C
【江苏省上冈高级中学2012－2013学年度高一下学期期中考试】
Making greener choices and encouraging healthy lifestyles can promote your health and benefit the environment．Here are some guidelines to follow:
Choose foods thoughtfully
Americans have never had such a variety or abundance of food to choose from．Besides so many choices, we now hear about our “food print”, the amount of land needed to supply one person’s nutritional needs for a year．Do we buy cherry tomatoes from Mexico or tomatoes grown locally in a hothouse? Do we get the Granny Smiths from the farmers’ market or the supermarket? Is organic produce healthier for us and the planet?
These are very complex issues that require analysis of many criteria, including the energy used in producing and transporting the food, as well as the type of soil and methods of raising the food．
Despite the complexities, there are some general guidelines you can follow．For instance, eat less meat or eat low on the food chain．Your doctor may have recommended you to restrict your consumption of red meat because of its too much fat content．Beyond that, there are environmental reasons, too．Raising food animals contributes substantially to climate change because a meat-based diet requires more land, energy and water than a plant-based one．
Drinking plenty of fluids is significant during hot weather or when exercising．But is bottled water the way to go? You may not think so when seeing the true costs．Based on a survey, manufacturing the 30-plus billion plastic water bottles can produce more than 2．5 million tons of carbon dioxide and use three times the amount of water in the bottle．Adding in transportation, the energy used comes to over 50 million barrels of oil equivalent （等价物）．Consequently, skip the bottled water and drink tap water, both at home and at restaurants．Additionally, bottled water is not necessarily cleaner than tap．
60．In Paragraph 2 the author puts forward three questions mainly ______．
A．to prove Americans have less food to choose from
B．to show us the shopping habits of most Americans
C．to remind people to reconsider their food purchase
D. to indicate Americans tend to buy food from abroad
61．According to the text, which of the following is true?
A．Americans all prefer to buy cherry tomatoes from Mexico．
B．Americans have a variety of food to choose from．
C．The plant-based diet is responsible for the climate change．
D．Organic produce is the only choice for Americans．
62．Based on the last paragraph, we know that ______．
A．tap water is economical as well as eco-friendly
B．bottled water is cleaner than tap water
C．bottled water is more available than tap water
D．tap water uses one-third the cost of bottled water
63．What is the best subtitle for the last paragraph?
A．Drink bottled water B．Skip bottled water, carry tap
C．Produce plastic water bottles D．Save water resources
60【答案】C
【试题解析】推理判断题。根据段首句可知，人们现在有多种选择，及下文的叙述，知道这三个问题是提醒人们重新考虑购买食物。
61【答案】B
【试题解析】事实细节题。各选项需要从文章中找到具体句子解题。
62【答案】A
【试题解析】推理判断题。根据该段中You may not think so when seeing the true costs，以及后面一句，Adding in transportation… bottled water is not necessarily cleaner than tap,可知，自来水不仅经济实惠而且环保；B选项根据bottled water is not necessarily cleaner than tap可知是错误的；C选项根据adding in transportation可知错误；D选项根据本段提供信息manufacturing the 30-plus billion plastic water bottles can produce more than 2．5 million tons of carbon dioxide and use three times the amount of water in the bottle可知错误。
63【答案】B
【试题解析】这是主旨大意题，文章结尾进行总结：Consequently, skip the bottled water and drink tap water, both at home and at restaurants．因此，答案选择B。
