She was only 15 years old and her life has changed forever.Few people knew the name Fan Ye until the pretty Chinese girl won a gold medal on the balance beam (平衡木) at the 37th World Gymnastics Championships in the on Aug.25,2003.
It wasn't all easy, though.After performing well at the start, Fan and her teammates struggled at the championships.
Unfamiliar with the new rules, they missed out on a team medal and finished fourth.Then Fan made an even bigger mistake—falling from the uneven bars(高低杠)。
“I cried hard after the uneven bars, but I knew my tears would not help in the competition，” she said.“The only thing I could do was to follow my normal pattern on the balance beam.”
Her coach, Lu Shanzhen, knows young people make mistakes and that Fan will probably fall again on her way to more success.
But she quickly moved out of the shadows in the balance beam competition.To win her first world title was an emotional moment for little Fan Ye.There were tears in her eyes as she received her medal.
“I was so excited，” she said, “The national anthem was played just for me！”
Strong on the uneven bars and balance beam, and talented at floor exercises (自由体操), she hopes to win an all-around (全能)title.
She has set her sights on the 2004 Olympics in Athens and then 2008 Games in Beijing.
Fan is determined to be a success, just like her heroine the Russian gymnast Svetlana Khorkina, who won the all-round title at the championships.“After seven or eight years, I hope I am still so beautiful and have such great skills.” Fan said.

Do you want to know how plants talk to each other? They do not have the same language as humans but they have their own ways.Recent research by scientists at Kyoto University, Japan, describes how the Lima bean plant protects itself and its neighbours from the spider mite (六点黄蜘蛛) or the red spider.It sends out clear distress signals(遇险信号)．It does it very silently.
The Lima bean plant gives off chemicals to send the message of a troublesome intruder(入侵者) to all its neighbours.That is the signal for all the plants to get their defense mechanisms working.
Plants all over the world have qualities, which make them special in their own ways.Some plants produce chemicals that give the leaves and root a strong taste or smell of chillies, spices and herbs used for cooking.These matters either discourage or even kill insects and other animals that might try to eat the plant.
Since plants cannot escape from animals that feed on them, many have developed features to protect them against plant eating animals.The two main defenses that plants use are armour(铁甲) and poison.In the Galapagos Islands cacti(仙人掌) grow a thick stalk more than two metres tall putting the tender leaves well out of the reach of the giant tortoises.
Japanese azaleas(杜鹃花) produce poisonous chemicals that let them survive even among hungry deer.Some of these chemical matters may even prevent the growth of nearby plants.For example, radishes(萝卜) produce a chemical substance, which slows the growth of spinach(菠菜)．Similarly, walnut and apple trees cannot grow together because chemicals released from walnut tree kill the apple tree.
47．The first paragraph mainly tells us________.
A．how Lima bean plant helps its neighbours
B．how Lima bean plant pass on distress messages
C．why Lima bean plant can survive many insects
D．how Lima bean plant's defense mechanisms
work
48．The underlined word “troublesome” probably has the same meaning with________.

49．The following are all ways that plants protect themselves EXCEPT________.
A．some plants give off smelly smell
B．some plants have protective covering
C．some plants make poisonous liquid
D．some plants don't let the animals go near
50．From this passage we can learn________.
A．plants can talk to each other as people do
B．plants continuously develop to adapted themselves to new environment
C．all plants can escape from being destroyed by their enemies
D．we can't eat fruits whose trees can't live together
Ⅳ.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
(2013·辽宁开原高二上期末) Why is setting goals important? ____51____ Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.
Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals. ____52____ It's like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which can be found on a map. She can drive straight there surely without any wasted time of wrong turns. The other driver has no goal, or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be?
____53____ They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. Goals aren't difficult to set and they aren't difficult to reach. ____54____ You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.
55____ Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.
A．Winners in life set goals and follow them through.
B．Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it.
C．It's up to you to find out what your goals really are.
D．It's difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map.
E．By setting goals you are taking control of your life.
F．Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life.
G．Because everybody should have a goal in his mind.

【参考范文】
Film_2012_tells_a_story_that_happens_in_2012.For a long time, man has been damaging the earth by destroying nature and overusing natural resources.The balance of the earth's system is on the point of collapse and all kinds of natural disasters strike at the same time on a large scale.People try to find Noah's Ark to survive the disasters.Faced with the disasters, people from different countries work hard together and they manage to escape from the great disasters in Noah's Ark.
This film has greatly impressed me.The earth is home to all living things, but it has suffered a lot with the development of agriculture and industry.If we don't pay special attention to protecting the environment, the earth won't be suitable for man to live on and what happens in the film will really happen to us one day.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
When I was 12 years old, I was at a very hard stage in life.I was short and fat, which was bad for a girl, so coordination (协调) was not one of my strongest features.On the other hand, my mother was a very talented softball player who even acted as my coach.Night after night, I would try my best to impress “my coach”．Unfortunately, I just felt like a terrible disappointment to my mother.
One summer afternoon, my mother told us we were going to visit Uncle David.Since we lived in an apartment, going to the country was quite a treat.My uncle David always had a way of making me feel special.
When we arrived, my uncle and cousin Jeff were throwing metal rings at two holes in the ground.I was curious about what they were doing so I went over to watch.Noticing that I was standing there, my uncle asked if I had ever played washers.
Being a “city girl”， my reply was that the only “washers” I knew were the ones that cleaned clothes.To my embarrassment, Uncle David chuckling(咯咯笑), explained that the metal rings were called washers.I was shocked to hear my uncle saying he wanted me to take his place.He then gave me the washers and gave tips on how to throw better.
Unwillingly, I joined Jeff.Gradually, I found myself not only enjoying but also wanting to win this game.The washer went into the air and began to fall.Then a cloud of dust appeared as the washer sank into the hole.My first try! I had actually thrown the washer into the hole!
Although twenty-three summers have gone by since that day, this small success in washer playing helped me get back self-confidence lost when I struggled with the game of softball.
1．Why did the author live a hard life at the age of twelve?
A．Because her body has many health problems.
B．Because coordination was her weakest feature.
C．Because she was forced to learn to play softball.
D．Because her efforts at softball were disappointing.
2．When she was told that she could visit Uncle David, the author felt________.
A．surprised B．pleased
C．disappointed D．nervous
3．It can NOT be learned from the passage that________.
A．the author must be more confident now
B．the author's mother was good at softball
C．the author had never met David before the visit
D．the author had never played washers before the visit
4．Which is the RIGHT time order of the changes in the author's feelings when she was at her uncle's?
A．Curious—Embarrassed—Shocked—Pleased
B．Shocked—Curious—Embarrassed—Pleased
C．Pleased—Embarrassed—Curious—Shocked
D．Curious —Shocked—Pleased—Embarrassed
5．The main purpose of the passage is to________.
A．show the influence of the author's mother on her

C．explain to us why the author likes playing washers
D．show the problem between the author and her mother

10．purchased
Ⅱ.1.A考查动词辨析。句意：我们队在昨天的比赛中表现很好，取得了第二名。perform“表现”；inform“通知”；reform“改革”；uniform“穿制服”。
2．A 考查名词辨析。句意：——我想知道为什么当我过马路时所有人都很奇怪地看着我。——在这个城市里，你必须等待人行的信号。signal信号，符合句意。symbol符号，象征；symptom症状；status地位，情形。
3．D 句意：老师和同学们在讨论美国新出版的《阅读技巧》那本书。不难看出主句的主语是the teacher，together with the students是附加部分，根据句意可知Reading Skills是一本书的名字，所以that从句的谓语动词也应该用第三人称单数形式。
4．C 考查动词辨析。句意：——妈妈，我完成作业了。——噢，如果你保证不打扰我，你可以看电视。guarantee担保，保证，符合句意。offer主动要求；support支持；want想要。
5．B 考查强调句型。分析本句句子结构可知，句中that she had bought in the village为关系代词that引导的一个定语从句，主句应为一个强调句，强调的是主句的状语部分from only a few supplies that。强调句型中含有定语从句，往往会造成错觉，尤其是强调句中的定语从句的引导词是that或who时，更容易造成错觉；方法是把it is/was...that...去掉，如果剩下的成分仍然能组成一个完整的句子，这就是强调句型。
6．D 此处是there is a chance of doing sth.的疑问形式。
7．D take advantage of sb.“利用某人”；to one's advantage“对……有利”。
8．D 句意：你若是远程学习者，为自己每天或每周设定一个确切的学习目标是个好主意。obvious“明显的”；curious“好奇的”；profound“深远的”；specific“具体的，特定的”。
9．C 句意：拥有私人轿车的人继续增加。the number of...意为“……的数量”，根据“is on________increase”可知为the number of；on the increase意为“正在增加”。
10．C 句意：——尽管彼得伤了脚，但他还是赢得了比赛。——是啊，他一直是一个意志坚强的运动员。as long as“只要”；unless“除非”；even though“即使”；only if “只有”。
11．D 考查强调句型。句意：格林先生不知道是什么让他女儿今天上午这么心不在焉。考查特殊疑问句的强调句型用于宾语从句，其结构为：特殊疑问词＋it is/was＋that＋其他成分。
12．B 考查副词短语辨析。句意：这个表格除了你自己任何人都不能签名。other than“除了”，符合句意。rather than“而不是”；more than“不仅仅是”；better than“好于”。
13．A 考查连词辨析。句意：请在今天下午或者你方便的时候给我的秘书打电话，让他安排会面。根据句意可知选A。
14．A take advantage of“利用”，和句子主语more and more people构成主动关系，且和句子谓语sign up for(报名参加)同时发生，所以选择A项。
15．B 句意：我的手机看起来和爱丽丝的很相似，但是比她的贵两倍多。考查“倍数＋as＋形容词原级＋as”结构。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】 本文讲述了作者的一次虚惊一场的经历。在晚上睡觉的时候他从窗户上看到有个外星人模样的人经过，感到很害怕，并且拿照相机想把这些拍下来。后来证实是参加化妆舞会的父亲回来时的身影。这样一次虚惊一场的经历给作者留下了深刻的印象。
1．C be about to do sth.的意思是“即将，马上要做……”，不能和明确的时间状语连用，但可以和when引导的从句连用。
2．A 从后文中描述的作者恐惧的心理和前面的一句话“Who's there？”可以看出作者这样是大声问了一句。
3．A 从第四段的第四句“...and started to take pictures in the direction of the window.”可以看出作者是在窗户处看到了一个外星人样子的人。

5．B 下文提到父母去了化妆舞会，可以判断出作者的大声求助也没有人应答。

7．D 从本段的第四句话“Soon the footsteps...”可以看出这里作者听到的是脚步声。
8．A 从下本句的“started to take pictures”可以看出作者从抽屉里拿的是照相机。
9．C die out“消失，灭绝；熄灭”； drop off“下降，减少；睡着，入睡；让(……)下车，把……放下”；turn away“走开；把脸转过去”； come down“下降，跌价；败落”；根据句意C项合适。
10．C 从下句的“I went back to my bed，...”可以看出作者是等脚步声消失了又回到了床上。
11．B 从上下句的语境可以看出作者此时是“满脑子的想法”，所以很长时间也不能入睡。
12．D 从下一句的“I found some footprints outside my bedroom window.”可以看出作者是去把这件事做一番调查。
13．D 从后面的“...the same size as my father's shoes.”可以看出作者是测量了一下这些脚印。
14．A 从最后的结局可以看出这些脚印就是父亲的脚印，所以应该是exactly。
15．B 从下文中可以看出，父亲根本没有进屋，所以其它几个选项都不合适，只有door合适。
16．A 从下文可以看出，作者是把这些胶卷拿去冲洗。
17．A 从“They were black...”可以看出。
18．C 从下半句“I started laughing too”可得知正确答案。

In the past 10 years, America's National Basketball Association(NBA) has grown increasingly dependent on the rest of the world to supply players.
When Michael Jordan and Larry Bird won gold in Barcelona in 1992，the Americans were praised for teaching the world how to play basketball.This season, however,20 percent of NBA rosters(花名册)will be filled by non-Americans.NBA commissioner David Stern happily embraces the trend.On a visit to Paris in October, Stern outlined his vision for the future, which is likely to see Europe hosting NBA games by 2010.

“Our experience in China has been that it is going to be explosive in its growth，” said Stern.The strategy in China is TV.“We've made 14 deals in China with local and national networks on cable and satellite.The success Chinese centre Yao Ming has paved the way for the NBA marketing blitz in China.The NBA, which is broadcasted in more than 200 countries in 42 languages, will put that to the test in October 2004 when the Houston Rockets play two pre-season games against the Sacramento Kings in Beijing market to compensate for tough times on home soil.”
“It doesn't matter where the players come from, all the NBA teams now know that they have to scout(寻找)internationally，” said Terry Lyons, the NBA's vice-president of international public relations.It has increased the level of competition here.” As Frenchman Tony Parker and Argentine Emanuel Ginobili showed in winning championship rings with the San Antonio Spurs last season, many people can earn the respect of their American peers.Others, such as Houston Rockets' Chinese centre Yao Ming—No.1 draft pick in 2002—and the Detroit Pistons' 18-year-old Serb Darko Milicic—number two overall in this year's draft—are icons(偶像)in waiting.It is the ultimate(根本的)revolution—the rest of the world teaching the US how to play basketball.
