2.Aerial(空中的)performer Jennifer Bricker was born without legs,but she never let it stop her.
Wrapped in a loop(圈)of red silk hung from the ceiling Jennifer Bricker climbs and twists to the music.Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back,high above the ground a move-that's all the more daring because she has no legs.
Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker.She had big brown eyes,a bright smile,and huge amounts of energy.When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket(桶),they refused.
Jennifer soon learned to walk-and run-on her hands and bottom,and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline (蹦床)with her three older brothers."My parents didn't treat me differently so I didn't grasp the concept that I was different.I knew I didn't have legs but that wasn't stopping me from doing the things I wanted to do."
At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs,but she never really took to them-she moved more freely without.
In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta.Jennifer loved to watch the women's gymnastics team,and especially adored the 14-year-old Dominique Moceanu who competed for the US.When Moceanu and the women's team won gold,Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast,too.She took up power tumbling,which involves performing floor exercises down a runway.But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability.
At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she was tumbling champion for the state of Illinois.
Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer.

3.Education Does Count
----Bill GatesHundreds of students send me e-mail each year asking for advice about education.They want to know what to study,or whether it's OK to drop out of college since that's what I did.
My basic advice is simple and heartfelt."Get the best education you can.Take advantage of high school and college.Learn how to learn."
It's true that I dropped out of college to start Microsoft,but I was at Harvard for three years before dropping out--and I'd love to have the time to go back.As I've said before,nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime.And even then they should reconsider.
In my company's early years we had a bright part-time programmer who threatened to drop out of high school to work full-time.We told him no.
Quite a few of our people didn't finish college,but we discourage dropping out.
Having a diploma certainly helps someone who is looking to us for a job.
There's not a perfect correlation(相连关系) between attitudes in high school and success in later life,of course.But it's a real mistake not to take the opportunity to learn a huge range of subjects,to learn to work with people in high school,and to get the grades that will help you get into a good college.

(2)你认为读书与事业之间的关系是怎样的
(3)你自己有何打算?
【写作要求】
1.在作文中可以使用自己亲身经历或虚构的故事,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子.
2.作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称.
The Author/Bill Gates is often asked to give advice about education due to his successful experience.He thinks it is unwise to drop out and that learning is sure to be beneficial
Some students want to drop out of school,believing schooling has nothing to do witha successful career,because there are many cases where people who don't finish their schooling are successful,such as Bill Gates.Besides,the high tuition of college educationis too much for ordinary families.Dropping out to find a job helps them to lighten the heavy financial burden on theirparents.Furthermore,experience counts most for a career and no wonder some would like to accumulate experience by takinga job at an early age.
"Knowledgeis power."Without knowledge,by no means canwe achieve our life goal.Schools are where people become knowledgeable.As for me,it is a wise option to concentrate on study from now on.I will make full use of time to complete my schooling and realize my dream..
7.Some colors people see late at night could cause signs of clinical(临床的)depression (沮丧).That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings.They show that individuals (个人) who live or work in low levels of light overnight (整夜) can develop clinical depression.Doctors use the word"clinical depression"to describe severe form of depression.Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities,low energy levels and thoughts of death or suicide.
In the new study,American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters(仓鼠)to different colors.The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal(夜行的),which means they sleep during the day and are active at night.
The animals were separated into four groups.One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period.Another group was placed in front of a blue light,a third group slept in front of a white light,while a fourth was put in front of a red light.
After four weeks,the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank.They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.
Randy Nelson heads the Department of Neuroscience at Ohio State University.He says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed."What we saw is that these animals didn't show any sleep uneasiness (不安) at all but they did mess up biological clock genes and they did show depressive sign while if they were in the dim(微弱)red light,they did not."
Randy Nelson notes that photosensitive(感光)cells in the eyes have little to do with eyesight.He says these cells send signals to the area of the brain that controls what has been called the natural sleep-wake cycle.
He says there's a lot of blue in white light.This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.

58.Researchers use hamsters in the experiment becauseD.
A.they are similar to humans in dealing with colors
B.they are easy to observe and study
C.they are sensitive to colors like human beings
D.they are active at night and sleep during the day
59.What sign shows that the hamsters are being depressed?A
A.They drink less sugary water.
B.They don't sleep well.
C.Their eyesight becomes worse.
D.Their energy level becomes low.
60.What can help people who work late at night to avoid being depressed?B
A.Not being exposed to dim red light when using computers.
B.Equipping their computer screens to put it more in the reddish light.
C.Living or working in low levels of light overnight.
D.Going to see doctors of clinical depression regularly for help.
1.What's going on under Liverpool?A Rainy Day in Liverpool
Dark clouds appear over the River Mersey and a cold wind is blowing.A few rain drops are beginning to fall.We're in the famous city of Liverpool and we're going to spend this rainy day in the Williamson Tunnels.
An Interesting Life Story
Joseph Williamson was born into a poor family in 1769,but left home and went to work for a tobacco company aged 11.He began at the bottom,and finally became head of the business.
An Unsolved Mystery
Nobody knows why Williamson dug tunnels under most of Liverpool,but many think it was to create jobs.Perhaps half of Liverpool's population worked for him.The industry of war had made enormous amounts of money,but now Liverpool was in a terrible financial situation.
The King of Edge Hill
I went on a guided tour starting close to where his empire began in Edge Hill.In the tunnels,the steps leading from rooms below ground to those buildings,which no longer exist,seem particularly ghostly.
Incredible Engineering
We go into the Double Tunnel.It's just been discovered that it's actually a triple tunnel-but nobody knows why the three tunnels were built on top of each other.
We finish the tour and decide we'll have a coffee in the Williamson Tunnels Cafe Bar.There,I notice lots of flyers for bands and theater groups that are coming to play there.
Why Liverpool?
Apart from the obvious attractions like the football clubs,or anything to do with the Beatles,Liverpool has a lot to offer.Princes Park and Croxteth Park were royal hunting grounds and the trees are 200years old.Renshaw Street displays are an unusual mix of architecture styles.The nightlife is exciting.If you want to experience a part of the British Isles with a character entirely different from London,you should definitely come to Liverpool.

21.Which of the following is TRUE about Joseph Williamson?C
A.He was born in the early 1700s.
B.He left home when he turned 18.
C.He worked for a tobacco company when he was young.
D.He started his business by himself but ended up broke.
22.Where did Williamson start his business?B
A.Princes Park.B.Edge Hill.
