Roberto Clemente is the greatest baseball player of all time. He had an unbelievable batting average(击球率) in all seasons he played. Having won four batting titles, Gold Glove Awards twelve times, and a Most Valuable Player Award, he is certainly the best that ever played.
Besides being the best baseball player, Roberto Clemente was also a great man and a hero. In 1972, there was an earthquake in Nicaragua. On December 31 of that year, Clemente flew to Nicaragua to take supplies to the people. Almost immediately after takeoff, the plane crashed into the Caribbean Sea.
The best honors for Clemente came after he died. He was the first Latino voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 1999, the city of Pittsburgh, where he played baseball, renamed a bridge after him—a bridge that leads to the city’s beautiful new stadium.
No one summed up the life of Roberto Clemente and the baseball commissioner(总干事) when, at Clemente’s Hall of Fame award ceremony, he said, “He was so great a man, as a leader and humanitarian, so great an inspiration to the young and to all in baseball, especially to the proud people of his homeland, Puerto Rico.” The commissioner further honored Clemente by creating a sportsmanship award in his name.
1．What can be concluded from Roberto Clemente’s trip to Nicaragua
A．He got injured in an air crash.
B．He cared about people and the world.
C．He donated a huge sum of money to Nicaragua.
D．He earned his fame for his bravery and generosity.
2．What do we know about Roberto Clemente from the passage
A．He died in Puerto Rico.
B．There was a bridge built for him.
C．He played baseball in Pittsburgh.
D．His statue was in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
3．What happened at Clemente’s Hall of Fame award ceremony
A．A sportsmanship award was set up in Clemente’s name.
B．Clemente was voted into the Soccer Hall of Fame.
C．Clemente gained an honor from the people of his homeland.

With smart technology increasingly influencing all aspects of our lives, it is only a matter of time before someone invents smart shoes—ones that can be made based on personal needs. Called “ShiftWear”， the sneakers are the brainchild of a team of businessmen, and engineers led by New York based designer David Coelho.
The adaptable shoes can be customized by using a smart phone app. Shoe owners will have the option of selecting a design from a variety of HD patterns by famous artists or creating one themselves. The company’s founders imagine the marketplace where artists can not only share but also sell their designs to others. Despite being electronic, the designs are clearly visible even in the brightest sunlight. What’s even cooler is that by switching on backlight, users can even show their designs in the dark!
According to Coelho, the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed. Though they will need periodic recharging, active users have nothing to worry about. That’s because the shoes are equipped with special WalkNCharge technology that powers the shoes—with every step. Inactive users also have options of charging the sneakers without using wires.
The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear. Even better, they are completely waterproof(防水的) and can even be thrown into an ordinary laundry machine for a quick wash! The company predicts that the shoes will range in price from $150 to $1，000 depending on the size of the EPanels where the designs are displayed.
This is not the first time that electronics and shoes have combined. Lithuaniabased iShuh Technologies has come up with a similar concept that connects ereader panels to a smart phone app via the Bluetooth. Whether these smart shoes become as popular as our smart devices remains to be seen, though they surely are attractive.
5．What can we know about the smart shoes from the text
A．The electronic designs can not be seen clearly at night.
B．The designers make sure every pair of sneakers is unique.
C．The bottom part of the shoes can last longer due to special materials.
D．The shoes have to be washed by hand to protect the electronics.
6．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．How the sneakers are charged.
B．How the sneakers can work well.
C．What images the sneakers show.
D．What technology the sneakers carry.
7．The varied prices of the sneakers mainly depend on ________.
A．the length of the shoes
B．the size of their EPanels
C．the designers of the shoes
D．the material of their bottoms
8．How does the author feel about the sneakers’future market
A．Negative. B．Anxious.
C．Uncertain. D．Confident.

My First Marathon
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E.class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic “stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finishing line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带）became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT.RUNNERS!"
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。游泳运动和跑步燃烧的卡路里相当，经常游泳的人获益良多，如可以增加心率，增强肌肉和力量，并能让心肺功能增强。
1．burns 解析：考查时态和主谓一致。句意：游泳一小时几乎和跑步一小时燃烧的卡路里一样多。根据句意可知，此句陈述的是一般事实，故用一般现在时；且此句主语为“An hour of swimming”，属于第三人称单数，故谓语动词用burns。
2．regularly 解析：考查副词。句意：经常游泳你将获益良多。空处修饰动名词“swimming”，故用其副词形式。
3．the 解析：考查冠词。根据空后的“biggest”可知，空处应用定冠词the。
4．stressing 解析：考查非谓语动词。根据空前的介词“without”可知，空处应用动名词形式。此处是说，游泳可以让身体在不紧张的情况下提高心率。
5．strength 解析：考查名词。此处是说，游泳还可以增强肌肉和力量。根据空前的“your muscle”可知，空处用名词形式。
6．Compared 解析：考查非谓语动词。此句的主语和动词compare之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，表示“与不活跃的人相比”，故用其过去分词形式。
7．swimmers 解析：考查名词的单复数。句意：与不活跃的人相比，游泳者只有大约一半的死亡风险。分析句子结构可知，空处为此句的主语，表示“游泳者”，故用其名词形式；且swimmer为可数名词，而此处表示群体，故用其复数形式。
8．who/that 解析：考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，此句为定语从句，空处应为引导词，在从句中作主语，先行词为persons，故用who/that引导此定语从句。
9．are injured 解析：考查被动语态。句意：如果你受伤或患某种疾病，在游泳前一定要咨询医生。分析句子结构可知，此句主语和动词injure之间为被动关系，故用被动语态。
10．In 解析：考查固定搭配。in general为固定搭配，意为“总的来说，通常”。句意：通常，无论何时在开始新的锻炼项目之前，向医生核实一下是一个好方法。

Roberto Clemente is the greatest baseball player of all time. He had an unbelievable batting average(击球率) in all seasons he played. Having won four batting titles, Gold Glove Awards twelve times, and a Most Valuable Player Award, he is certainly the best that ever played.
Besides being the best baseball player, Roberto Clemente was also a great man and a hero. In 1972, there was an earthquake in Nicaragua. On December 31 of that year, Clemente flew to Nicaragua to take supplies to the people. Almost immediately after takeoff, the plane crashed into the Caribbean Sea.
The best honors for Clemente came after he died. He was the first Latino voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 1999, the city of Pittsburgh, where he played baseball, renamed a bridge after him—a bridge that leads to the city’s beautiful new stadium.
No one summed up the life of Roberto Clemente and the baseball commissioner(总干事) when, at Clemente’s Hall of Fame award ceremony, he said, “He was so great a man, as a leader and humanitarian, so great an inspiration to the young and to all in baseball, especially to the proud people of his homeland, Puerto Rico.” The commissioner further honored Clemente by creating a sportsmanship award in his name.

With smart technology increasingly influencing all aspects of our lives, it is only a matter of time before someone invents smart shoes—ones that can be made based on personal needs. Called “ShiftWear”， the sneakers are the brainchild of a team of businessmen, and engineers led by New York based designer David Coelho.
The adaptable shoes can be customized by using a smart phone app. Shoe owners will have the option of selecting a design from a variety of HD patterns by famous artists or creating one themselves. The company’s founders imagine the marketplace where artists can not only share but also sell their designs to others. Despite being electronic, the designs are clearly visible even in the brightest sunlight. What’s even cooler is that by switching on backlight, users can even show their designs in the dark!
According to Coelho, the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed. Though they will need periodic recharging, active users have nothing to worry about. That’s because the shoes are equipped with special WalkNCharge technology that powers the shoes—with every step. Inactive users also have options of charging the sneakers without using wires.
The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear. Even better, they are completely waterproof(防水的) and can even be thrown into an ordinary laundry machine for a quick wash! The company predicts that the shoes will range in price from $150 to $1，000 depending on the size of the EPanels where the designs are displayed.
This is not the first time that electronics and shoes have combined. Lithuaniabased iShuh Technologies has come up with a similar concept that connects ereader panels to a smart phone app via the Bluetooth. Whether these smart shoes become as popular as our smart devices remains to be seen, though they surely are attractive.
5．What can we know about the smart shoes from the text
A．The electronic designs can not be seen clearly at night.
B．The designers make sure every pair of sneakers is unique.
C．The bottom part of the shoes can last longer due to special materials.
D．The shoes have to be washed by hand to protect the electronics.
6．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．How the sneakers are charged.
B．How the sneakers can work well.
C．What images the sneakers show.
D．What technology the sneakers carry.
7．The varied prices of the sneakers mainly depend on ________.
A．the length of the shoes
B．the size of their EPanels
C．the designers of the shoes
D．the material of their bottoms
8．How does the author feel about the sneakers’future market
A．Negative. B．Anxious.

My First Marathon
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E.class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic “stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finishing line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带）became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT.RUNNERS!"
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。游泳运动和跑步燃烧的卡路里相当，经常游泳的人获益良多，如可以增加心率，增强肌肉和力量，并能让心肺功能增强。
1．burns 解析：考查时态和主谓一致。句意：游泳一小时几乎和跑步一小时燃烧的卡路里一样多。根据句意可知，此句陈述的是一般事实，故用一般现在时；且此句主语为“An hour of swimming”，属于第三人称单数，故谓语动词用burns。
2．regularly 解析：考查副词。句意：经常游泳你将获益良多。空处修饰动名词“swimming”，故用其副词形式。
3．the 解析：考查冠词。根据空后的“biggest”可知，空处应用定冠词the。
4．stressing 解析：考查非谓语动词。根据空前的介词“without”可知，空处应用动名词形式。此处是说，游泳可以让身体在不紧张的情况下提高心率。
5．strength 解析：考查名词。此处是说，游泳还可以增强肌肉和力量。根据空前的“your muscle”可知，空处用名词形式。
6．Compared 解析：考查非谓语动词。此句的主语和动词compare之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，表示“与不活跃的人相比”，故用其过去分词形式。
7．swimmers 解析：考查名词的单复数。句意：与不活跃的人相比，游泳者只有大约一半的死亡风险。分析句子结构可知，空处为此句的主语，表示“游泳者”，故用其名词形式；且swimmer为可数名词，而此处表示群体，故用其复数形式。
8．who/that 解析：考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，此句为定语从句，空处应为引导词，在从句中作主语，先行词为persons，故用who/that引导此定语从句。
9．are injured 解析：考查被动语态。句意：如果你受伤或患某种疾病，在游泳前一定要咨询医生。分析句子结构可知，此句主语和动词injure之间为被动关系，故用被动语态。
10．In 解析：考查固定搭配。in general为固定搭配，意为“总的来说，通常”。句意：通常，无论何时在开始新的锻炼项目之前，向医生核实一下是一个好方法。

Paragraph 1:
I was one of the final runners to finish.
Paragraph 2:
Determined to be myself move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签），I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
One possible version:
I was one of the final runners to finish. And I got a medal in running. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had. When I reached the finishing line, my wife ran quickly to me. She kissed me and said,"You are athletic and you are the best runner and a marathon winner'. I love you."All the people present cheered up. It seemed as if they were all cheering for me. I was very proud of myself and I was very excited for what I did. My great efforts paid off at last.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels, I can now call myself a"marathon winner". I have learned to be faced with worldly labels bravely. It was determination and confidence that made me take part in the marathon. It was my wife's support that made me succeed, My wife is my spiritual support. I think I am a＂marathon winner" with a great effort of will. My success also belongs to my wife.
