5.They are the sort of friends who are so close that they trust each other with their lives.If one fails the other is there to catch him.
They are Wellman,whose legs were permanently injured nine years ago in a rock-climbing accident,and Corbett,an experienced rock climber.Together,they climbed up Half Dome,the famous 2,000-foot rock in the Yosemite National Park,through one of the most different routes.
During the climb,Crorbett took the lead,hit in the metal spikes(尖状物) that guided the ropes and climbed up.Then,after Wellmanm pulled himself up the rope,Corbett went down to remove the spikes and climbed up again.This process was repeated time and again,inch by inch,for 13days.Wellman's job was not easy either.He got himself up the rope through upper body strength alone.In all,Wellman figured that he had done 5,000pull-ups up the rope on the climb.
However,when the two men first met,they never talked about climbing."He knew that was how I got injured."Wellman said.Until one day Wellman decided that he wanted to climb again and they started training.
Their climb of Half Dome was not all smooth.At one point,pieces of rock gave way,and Corbett dropped down quickly.Wellman locked their rope in place,stopping the fall at 20feet.His quick action probably saved his friend's life.
"Your partner can save your life---you can save your partner's life,"Wellman said as the pair received congratulations from friends."There are real close ties."
21.Which of the following was a challenge for Corbett in climbing Half Dome?C
A.To climb up to remove the spikes.
B.To do 5,000pull-ups up the rope.
C.To climb it twice.
D.To lock the rope in place.
22.Why did the two men never talk about climbing when they first met?D
A.Corbett was poorly trained.
B.Wellman had lost interest in climbing.
C.Wellman hadn't decided whether to climb again
D.Corbett didn't want to hurt Wellman.
23.What do we know about Wellman?A
A.he stopped rock-climbing for some time.
B.he was disabled in a traffic accident.
C.he climbed Half Dome by himself.
D.he was saved by Corbett during the climb.
24.The main idea of the text is thatB.
A.two heads are better than one
B.friendship is very precious in life
C.the disabled should never give up
D.a man can be destroyed but cannot be defeated.

分析 世界上有一种友谊是用生命在相信对方,以至于在一个人倒下的时候,另一个人会用尽全力接住他.Wellman和Corbett就是这样一对朋友.Wellman和Corbett都是攀岩爱好者,他们一起在优胜国家公园(the Yosemite National park)的半圆顶(Half Dome)攀岩.九年前Wellman在一次攀岩事故中受到永久的伤害.在这次攀爬中,Wellman和Corbett互相帮助.Wellman甚至救了Corbett的性命.Wellman说道:"你能救你朋友的性命,你朋友也能救你的性命."他们收到了许多的祝贺.

20.Darno Setiadi is one of the top ten thousand richest men in Indonesia.Mr.Setiadi runs his own business,importing machinery from Europe and selling it all over the country.He employs over three hundred people and lives in a very large house in Jakarta,the capital city.However,as he will tell you,he had to travel down a long,hard road to get to where he is today.
"I built this business up from nothing through my own hard work,"said Darno."I come from a poor family and have thirteen brothers and sisters.My dad died when I was fourteen and I had to go out to work to try to support the rest of my family.To begin with,I sold ice cream in the street; then I got a job selling cloth door-to-door.After that,I started traveling all over the island selling things to people and slowly I started getting ideas about what kind of products the different markets wanted.
"When I was twenty-one,I left my wife and two children at home and moved to Jakarta to set up my own business,selling all kinds of machines,but,particularly propellers (螺旋桨) for boats.There are over thirteen thousand islands in Indonesia,so there's a huge market for that kind of thing.Luckily for me,some friends helped me get import licenses.Business was increasing and I could finally afford to bring my family over to join me.
"The only real problem I have now is who's going to take control of the business when I retire.I'd like my son to run it,but he's not really strong enough to do it!I think perhaps his childhood was too easy,and that has made him a bit too soft to do work like this!"
21.What does Darno sell now?C
A.Cloth.
B.Boats.
C.Machines.
D.Ice cream.
22.When Darno was in his early teens,heB.
A.helped with his family business
B.struggled to raise a big family
C.left his family to do business
D.traveled all over the world
23.What does Darno worry about now?D
A.His health problems.
B.How to spend his retired life.
C.How to keep controlling the market.
D.His son's ability to take over his business.
24.Which of the following words can best describe Darno?B
A.Kind-hearted and easy-going.
B.Sharp-eyed and hard-working.

D.Well-educated and self-confident.
19.A Good Custodian
I know a woman who tries hard to be a good custodian.
I pass her  every day after school as she pushes her cart down my
hallway.Of course,she is my building's cleaner,
One Tuesday morning I came into school and saw a (36)C on my
desk from my custodian,
It seemed that some unbearable first year students had damaged the bathroom in a particularly disgusting way and she had been (37)D to clean it.This took(38)B than she had expected. She had left the typewritten note on my desk to (39)A  for not being able to clean my room as she was (40)D to do.
At the beginning of the period,I shared her note with my first period(41)A When I mentioned that our custodian had apologized to us,their first (42)B was to volunteer to seek out and beat up those first year students for making our custodian have to clean up their (43)C.It turned out that just about all of my students also knew our custodian by name-all of them responded with smiles and (44)A for a long time about this time or that time when she'd(45)D each of them in the hallway.That she felt she needed to apologize (46)C a strong reaction from many of the kids.
As the class period was about to end,I asked them to(47)C  the floor like I do every period and thanked them for picking up any garbage (48)A  it wasn't theirs.My entire class disappeared; they each disappeared instantly(49)B their desks to pick up those annoying tiny pieces of paper that (50)B so easily from notebooks.One girl made a (an)(51)D that I later used with my other classes:"Her job might be to clean the room,but she shouldn't have to clean up(52)A us.There's a difference."
I believe that people know the difference between right and wrong.I believe that people appreciate it when others(53)D take care of them.And I believe that people,even adolescents who are not quite yet mature,appreciate it when they see someone who takes (54)Bin her work. Sometimes we need a (55)C of the things we take for granted…things like a good custodian to take care of us.

20.A.The power and habit of thinking 
B.The value of previous education
C.The correctness in using mother tongue 
D.The development of an educated man 
E.The possession of gratitude 
F.Refined and natural manners  
 
76.C
   The first characteristic of an educated man is the precision of the use of the native language.When one hears English well spoken,with pure diction,correct pronunciation,and an almost unconscious choice of the right word,he recognizes it at once.How much easier he finds it to imitate English of the other sort.
77.F
    When manners are artificial and forced,no matter what their form,they are bad manners.When,however,they are the natural expression of fixed habits of thought and action,and when they reveal a refined and cultivated nature,they are good manners.There are certain things that gentlemen do not do,and they do not do them simply because they are bad manners.
78.A
   Human beings for the most part live wholly on the surface or far beyond the present moment and that part of the future that is quickly to follow it.They do not read those works of prose and poetry which have become classic because they reveal power and habit of reflection and induce that power and habit in others.When one reflects long enough to ask the question how?He is on the way to knowing something about science.
79.D
    An educated man continues to grow and develop from birth to his dying day.His interests expand,his contacts multiply,his knowledge increases,and his reflection becomes deeper and wider.It would appear to be true that not many human beings,even those who have had a school and college education,continue to grow after they are twenty-four or twenty-five years of age.By that time it is usual to settle down to life on a level of more or less contented intellectual interest and activity.The whole present-day movement for adult education is a systematic and definite attempt to keep human beings growing long after they have left school and college,and therefore,to help educate them.
80.B
    The more visionary dreamer,however charming or however wise,lacks something that an education requires.The power to do may be exercised in any one of a thousand ways,but when it clearly shows itself,that is evidence that the period of discipline of study and of companionship with parents and teachers has not been in vain.
