题目内容

I’m a volunteer for The American Diabetes (糖尿病) Association(ADA). I am on the planning committee for a one-day cycling event called “Tour de Cure”. It’s sponsored by the ADA and the profits（利润） of this event are used for diabetes research and program funding.

While I was talking to people about our “Tour de Cure” event in downtown Denver one day, I met a young boy wearing a red hat from Oklahoma named Jack. I think he was 10-11 years old. It was the jar of red rubber wrist bands (The American Diabetes Association diabetes awareness wrist bands) that caught Jack’s eye. These are the bands we give out to people who have diabetes, who have a family member who has diabetes or to those people who know someone who has diabetes.

People wear these for a variety of reasons: in memory of a loved one, to promote diabetes awareness and to show support for people who have diabetes. Jack walked towards me eyeing the jar and then he said, “Can I have one of those?” So, I replied to Jack, “Do you have someone in your family who has diabetes?” Jack said, “No, but I know someone who has diabetes.” So I gave him one to wear for his friend.

Then, Jack began looking at our “Tour de Cure” photo album. When Jack had finished and was about to go, he looked up at me and said, “Would you take a donation?” I was surprised to hear this from a 10-11-year-old boy, but I said, “Yes.” I took the lid of our donation container off as Jack was reaching into his pocket. His hand came out clinched around the donation he was about to make. It was my impression that what he had in his hand was everything he had in his pocket, as he did not count it. After Jack dropped his donation into the container, I gave him a high-five, as I so often do to acknowledge an accomplishment or an appreciation. I also gave him a handshake before he parted. After Jack left, I counted his gift—$3.00. I then realized that he gave all he had, without counting the cost.

The heart of a child made me smile that day. Thank you, Jack.

Matches made over the Internet often do not last long because people end up choosing unsuitable

partners and forming emotional bonds before meeting face-to-face, an Australian university researcher

has found.

Women may especially find Mr. Wrong, as they tend to be attracted by fine comments or clever

emails, said psychologist Matthew Bambling from the Queensland University of Technology.

“You can never assume things are the way they seem online,” Bambling said. “The fact that they

can write a clever comment or a witty email doesn’t mean they will be Mr. Right, that’s for sure,” he

said, adding some men use the concept of “netting”, sending emails to dozens of women and hoping

one might respond. Bambling said you can find a partner online, but warned those using the Web to

find love to be aware of the traps. “There’s definitely an uncontrolled effect online,” he said, with

people more likely to exaggerate their good points while hiding anything negative. “Few guys for

example would say ‘look, I’m a middle aged alcoholic who’s been married five times, pick me’.

They’re going to present themselves as a good catch.” He said it was easy for people to quickly invest

too much emotionally in an online relationship because they don’t see the full picture of the person

they are emailing.

Bambling said people can avoid many of the problems by meeting early in the actual relationship,

rather than by getting to know each other only by email. He suggests couples arrange to meet over

coffee after a few emails, which will help people from building up a fantasy image of their match.

“The main thing to remember is to make real life contact as soon as possible if you are interested in

someone, because then you will know contact as soon as possible if you are interested in someone,

because then you will know if a relationship is a possibility.” He said.

1. Why were women quite likely to find Mr. Wrong over the Internet?

A. Because they often judge a person by his appearance.

B. Because single women usually felt more lonely.

C. Because the emotional bonds were hard to break.

D. Because they were easily attracted by fine comments.

2. About the online relationship Bambling suggests we should be ______.

A. rejective B. favorable C. cautious D. hopeful

3. The underlined word “exaggerate” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.

A. enlarge B. invent C. remove D. cover

4. What is suggested by Bambling for a better online relationship?

A. Writing clever comments or emails to girls frequently.

B. Finding a partner online through one night respond.

C. Making real life contact before further development.

D. Investing much emotion in your partner.

下面是美国著名游记作家Bill Bryson的几本作品，首先请阅读它们的封面信息：

A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail

The Lost Continent: Travels in Small-Town America

I’m a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America after 20 Years Away

The Road Less Traveled: 1000 Amazing Places off the Tourist Trail

Neither Here nor There: Travels in Europe

The English Landscape: Its Character and Diversity

下面是对这几本书的简要介绍，请把它们对应的封面信息找出来：

1. In this collection, Bill Bryson is writing from home. We find he assesses life both in New England and in the contemporary United States. With the telescopic perspective(远望视角) of one who has stepped out of the American mainstream and come back after 20 years, Bryson holds the mirror up to U.S. culture and feel strange to his motherland.

2.This book is a guide to the world’s unspoilt sights and experiences. It presents one thousand fresh and fascinating alternatives to hundreds of well-known tourist destinations and sights, including alternatives to the Carnival in Rio and the beaches of Thailand, the most-visited national parks, over-rated restaurants and holiday sites.

3.Returning to the U.S. after 20 years in England, Bill Bryson decided to reconnect with his mother country by hiking the length of the 2100-mile Appalachian Trail. Awed by merely the camping section of his local sporting goods store, he still goes into the wilderness and learns hard lessons about self-reliance.

4. A travelogue by Bill Bryson is as close to a sure thing as funny books get. This book is no exception. Following an urge to rediscover his youth, the author leaves his native Des Moines, Iowa, in a journey that takes him to across 38 states in the country, which is like a small town in his opinion.

5.Born in Iowa, Bryson backpacked through Europe as a young man. While living in England some 20 years later, he revisited many of the same places from arctic Norway’s northern lights to romantic Capri in Italy. Here he jumps back and forth between old memories and new experiences.
