Closing ceremony of Beijing Olympic Games
BEIJING ---The closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games began in the National Stadium, also known as the Bird's Nest, in northern Beijing at 8 p.m. on August 24，2008.
The countdown to the closing ceremony started from the number 29, indicating the 29th Olympic Games. All the audience joined the countdown from 10, while the numbers were displayed by firework（焰火） explosions in the sky.
The theme of the sending-off party is celebration. The world has much to celebrate because during those days the sportsmen shocked the world by breaking 38 world records, and renewing more than 80 Olympic records. The National Aquatic Center, or “Water Cube”, saw 23-year-old American Michael Phelps build his swimming kingdom by winning eight gold medals and breaking seven records in a single Games. And, the national stadium, or “Bird’s Nest”, saw Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt win three gold medals and breaking three world records in the 100-metre, 200-metre and 4x100metre relay.
China has much to celebrate because for the first time it netted 100 medals, and led the gold medal tally with 51. The success is tasting sweeter for the Chinese people after they lost 70,000 of their brothers and sisters as the 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck Sichuan Province on May 12.
At the closing ceremony, International Olympic Committee President Jacque Rogge praised the Games by saying the Beijing Olympic Games as “truly exceptional” and thanked all the people of China.
Beijing has done everything it could to enrich the spirit of the Olympics. It passed on the Olympic torch to London. And it is with this spirit that the sacred flame seemed to say: "So long, Bird's Nest, Water Cube, Chaoyang Park and Tian'anmen Square. Hello, Wembley, Wimbledon, Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square."
41. Where were the track and field races held in the Beijing Olympics?
A: Wembley B: Chaoyang Park
C: Bird’s nest D: Water Cube
42. Which of the following is wrong?
A: Mr. Rogge spoke highly the Beijing Olympics.
B: Phelps broke 8 records in the swimming games.
C: The closing ceremony began at 8 pm on August 24.
D: Almost 70000 people died in the Sichuan Earthquake.
43. what’s the meaning of the phrase “truly exceptional” ?
A: 真正期望 B： 无与伦比
C：发现真相 D：实际排除
44. which continent does the city Wimbledon lie in?
A：Asia B: Africa C: Europe D: America

English author, Richard Savage, was once living in London in great poverty. In order to earn a little money, he had written the story of his life, but not many copies of the book had been sold in the shop, and Savage was living from hand to mouth. As a result of his lack of food, he became very ill, but after a time, because of the skill of the doctor who had looked after him, he got well again. After a week or two, the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his visits, but poor Savage hadn’t any money and couldn’t pay it. The doctor waited for another month and sent the bill again. But still no money came. After several weeks he sent it to him again asking for his money. In the end he came to Savage’s house and asked him for payment, saying to Savage, “You know you owe your life to me and I expected some gratitude from you.”
“I agree,” said Savage, “that I owe my life to you, and to prove to you that I am not ungrateful for your work, I will give my life to you.” With these words he handed to him two copies entitled, ‘The Life of Richard Saves’.

In New York, there is now a school with no daily lessons, no class teachers, not even a school building. The “school” is a project. It is called “City-as-School” and the name means just that, the city itself is the place where 350 students, between the age of 15 and 18, learn their lessons.
Students choose areas of work which interest them and then they help to do that work. For instance, one girl spends her week in the offices of a Congresswoman — an elected official — helping the public with problems such as pensions（养老金），housing, etc. Then she goes to help in a theatre for a day and she spends one day a week taking first-year courses at college.
City-as-School is 30 years old. The education system in New York accepts it now, as an alternative to final years at school. But can it replace ordinary lessons? Well, students have to pass maths and science exams before they enter the “school”. These subjects are not easy to provide for in “ City-as-School”. Teachers monitor the progress of the students. 80 to 85% of the students go to college (or university, as it is called in Britain) after their time at “City-as-School”. The success rate is high. And the students are enthusiastic about their “school”. They like the responsibility of their work, and the sense of purpose it gives them.
When the students leave “City-as-School”, they don’t have a normal academic education; but they do know a lot about different kinds of work in the city!
49. “City-as-School” is special because it is ________.
A. in New York, one of the most famous cities in the world
B. not a common school we usually see and know
C. a school having special students
D. free of charge for the citizens
50. Which of the following is NOT included in the permission of entering the “school”?
A. Between 15 and 18 years old.
B. Passing maths and science exams.
C. Finishing first-year courses at college.
D. Students being in their final years at school.
51. What do the teachers at “City-as-School” do?
A. To monitor the progress of the students.
B. To give lessons to the students.
C. To evaluate the students’ performance.
D. To protect the students.
52. What is the author’s attitude to “City-as-School”?
A. Agreeable. B. Indifferent(漠不关心).
C. Neutral (中立的). D. Disagreeable.

Reflecting is a special kind of thinking. In the first place, it's a both active and controlled. When ideas pass aimlessly through your head, that is not reflecting. When someone tells you a story and it suddenly brings to mind something that happened to you, that is not reflecting either. Reflecting means focusing your attention. It means weighing, considering, and choosing. Suppose you're going home, and when you get there, you turn the knob, the door opens and you step in. Getting into your home does not require reflection. But now suppose that when you turn the knob, the door does not open. To get into the house, some reflecting is in order. You have to think about what you are going to do. You have to imagine possibilities and consider choices.
The second way that reflecting is different from some other kinds of thinking is that it's persistent. It requires continuous effort. Suppose you're still trying to get through your front door. You check your pocket for the key. You walk around the house looking for an open window. You go to a phone to call a family member who has a key. Such behavior is proof of persistent reflective thinking. And if someone asks you what you are doing, you may say that you are trying to figure out how to get into your house. But suppose, instead, you go to a nearby record store and look through the new records. If someone asks you what you are doing and you say that you are trying to figure out how to get into your house, that will not make sense. You are only reflecting as long as you stick to the problem or task.
The third way that reflecting is different from some other kinds of thinking is that it's careful. It aims at making sense. This doesn't mean that reflecting cannot be imaginative. A great deal of reflection could go into writing a science-fiction story about people who can move through solid objects. The ability to walk through walls could make sense in a science-fiction story. But it wouldn't make much sense in trying to get through your locked front door. Such imagining would be a kind of thinking, but it would not be reflection.
57. According to the passage, reflecting is _______.
A. not a kind of thinking but an action
B. giving all your attention to figuring out something
C. bringing to mind something that happened to you
D. letting ideas pass quickly through your head
58. If you don't take your key with you from work, which of the following does not show reflecting?
A. You go through the open window. B. You telephone your family member.
C. You go to the nearby record store. D. You ask the policeman for help.
59. The underlined word "persistent" probably means _____.
A. existing B. continuing C. trying D. imagining
60. Which of the following is the difference between thinking and reflecting?
A. Reflecting takes more time than thinking.
B. Reflecting is more important than thinking.
C. Reflecting is a kind of more imaginative thinking.
D. Reflecting is a kind of deeper thinking.
