一、阅读理解
Andrew has a mental illness. He doesn’t speak. He had used a picture chart to communicate. The pictures stand for words—people, places, food and activities.
Years ago, Andrew’s parents discovered that he could communicate more by a letter board. He could point to and spell out words and thoughts. Using the letter board needs time and effort for Andrew. He hated to use the letter board, so his parents always offered it to him.
On Andrew’s 15th birthday, his mother took him to a shoe store. After buying the shoes, she said. “It’s Andrew’s birthday today. Fifteen! Now we’re off to celebrate.”
The salesmen said happy birthday to Andrew. Instead of having Andrew point to the “thank you” on his picture chart, his mother held up his letter board and asked Andrew how he’d like to respond. Andrew pointed to each letter one by one on the board— “Thank you.” Andrew’s mother smiled.
One of the salesmen asked what it was. “This is a letter board that Andrew uses to communicate,” his mother replied. “We’ve practiced it for years. It’s amazing. It’s changed everything for us.” Then the salesman told them he had a brother called Jason. “Jason is 30 and doesn’t speak,” he said.
“Andrew, what do you think ” his mother turned to Andrew. Andrew started pointing to letters, “Tell Jason...” She was excited. Andrew continued, “Tell Jason he will change everyone’s opinion of him in 26 letters.” Andrew’s mother and the salesmen were all moved and happy.
Months later, Andrew’s mother returned to the shoe store and learned that Jason is now using a letter board to “speak”. This is how Andrew affected another person’s life in a split second (瞬间).

You must have heard of me. I’m Li Bai. I’m famous for my poems, but looking back on my fall and exciting life, I’d say friendship has been just as important as poetry.
One of my friends is He Zhizhang who is forty-two years older than me. Once we were having such an interesting conversation that we decided to continue it over dinner. After finishing the meal, we realized that neither of us had brought any money. He immediately took off the golden tortoise (龟) decorated on his waist and used it to pay for our dinner. I knew the golden tortoise was given to him by the Emperor. His generosity touched me. This showed how much he valued our friendship.
A letter started another of my friendships. The letter was from Wang Lun. He wrote to invite me to enjoy the ten-li peach blossom (桃花) scenery and the ten thousand restaurants in his area. I was expecting to see the special scenery and taste all kinds of food and wine so that I accepted this invitation at once.
But when I arrived, to my surprise, I found that this clever man had used word-play to trick me into visiting him! The ten-li peach blossom referred to a lake named Peach Blossom Lake, which was about ten li away. The ten thousand restaurants were just a restaurant named Wan Jia, meaning “owned by Mr. Wan”! I was impressed by his cleverness, and we enjoyed a good laugh together.
Although my friends and I don’t have many opportunities to get together, we keep one another in mind.

One day in autumn Squire Gordon, my master, went on a trip into town. John, my caretaker, went with him. I pulled the cart. The weather was rainy and windy, but we travelled happily.
Gordon’s business took a long time. We didn’t leave until late afternoon. The wind was then much higher. My master said to John, “I have never been out in such a storm!” Mr Gordon and John could not see well in the rain.
We came to a wooden bridge. It was very nearly dark. We could just see that the water was over the middle of the bridge. But as that happened sometimes when the floods were out, master did not stop. The moment my feet touched the first part of the bridge, I felt sure there was something wrong. I dare (敢于) not go forward, and I made a dead stop. “Go on, Beauty,” said my master, and he gave me a touch with the whip (鞭子), but I dare not move. He gave me a sharp cut and I jumped, but I dare not go forward.
“There’s something wrong, sir,” said John, and he got out and tried to lead me forward. “Come on, Beauty.” But I knew that the bridge was not safe.
Just then the man on the other side saw us.
“Hey! Halloo! Stop!” he cried.
“What’s the matter ” shouted my master.
“The bridge is broken in the middle, and part of it is carried away. If you go onto it, you’ll be into the river.”

When we returned home the Squire told Mrs Gordon, “Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was dangerous.”

Rain or shine, Peter O’Neill always competes in the triathlon (铁人三项运动) of his town. The 72-year-old has competed in every triathlon in the event’s 40-year history. He was part of the group that came up with the idea in the 1980s.
“I used to jog around town,” Mr. O’Neill said. “I came into contact with an Olympian, David Power, and Dave had a hotel up here. A few of us got together and we discussed it and got it going in October, 1983.”
The then 31-year-old suggested one of the group should compete. “Everyone else could either ride a bike or run, but I was the only one who could swim,” he laughed. “But I was happy to give it a go.”
In the beginning, more than 220 athletes took part in the event, including 79 individual competitors and 48 teams. These days it’s a five-day festival—which includes 11 events in all—with more than 13,000 competitors.
Rebecca van Pooss, head of operations for the triathlon there, said the event Mr. O’Neill helped to start was now an international event. “It is the world’s largest Olympic-distance triathlon,” she said. “That’s something we’re very proud of.”
“Mr. O’ Neill’s efforts were inspiring. There are a couple of other athletes who have done 38, 39,” she said. “But Peter, he is the legend (传奇)—it’s pretty amazing to have someone who’s done all 40 of our races.”
Mr. O’Neill trains year-round for the event, and enjoys the social side just as much as the physical benefits. “I’ve made so many friends… friends that I ride with and friends I swim with—it’s been wonderful,” he said. “When you’re in your 70s like I am, you’re quite happy to just do it because you know it beats the alternative (替代品), which is sitting around doing nothing.”
25.What do the underlined words “give it a go” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Try doing it. B.Cooperate with others.
C.Organize the game. D.Go to a friend’s home.
26.What can we infer from Rebecca’s words

B.There are more than 40 events that they can choose.
C.The triathlon will be an international event in the future.
D.It’s very hard to keep on training and competing for the event.
