When Jackie Robinson walked onto Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, New York, on April

15, 1947, he changed baseball forever. As the first African American to play in the Major League in modern times, many believe he changed the country forever.

Robinson was born in 1919. He lived in a time when rules controlled what African Americans could do. He was a top athlete, playing football, basketball and baseball. But playing for a major league team was off limits to Robinson because of his race.

Branch Rickey, president and manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, signed(和…签约)Robinson in 1947. He believed that Robinson not only had the skills, but the

courage to face the challenge of becoming modern baseball’s first black player.

It wasn’t easy. Robinson sometimes faced boos(嘘声)from fans. But he became

a star, anyway. In 1962, he became the first African-American player chosen to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 2005, he was awarded a Congressional Gold Medal, the

highest award can give to an American.

By breaking baseball’s color barrier(肤色障碍), Robinson opened the door for many to follow his footsteps, not only in baseball, but in other areas of life as

wall. After he stopped playing the game, Robinson worked as a manager for a coffee

company. He wrote a newspaper column(专栏). He also started a bank.

64. According to Branch Rickey, Jackie Robinson was _____________.

A. poor but clever

B. unlucky but confident

C. proud and strong

D. brave and skilled

65. We can know that Jackie Robinson’s story _______________.

A. changed many African’s ideas

B. had an effect on many black people’s lives

C. encouraged black people to fight with whites

D. started a hot discussion about the color barrier

66. Which of the following is NOT what he once did?

B. a banker

C. a university teacher

D. a manager in a company

Jungle(丛林) country is not friendly to man，but it is possible to survive there. You must have the right equipment and you must know a few important things about

woodcraft(山林野外知识). Then your chances of staying alive are very good.

No one should go into the jungle without the right equipment. You need lightweight clothing, a good knife, and a compass. Fishhooks and a line，a rifle，matches in a waterproof container and a poncho(雨披) are necessary too. So is a mosquito net(蚊帐) to protect the head.

In the jungle you can get hopelessly lost within five minutes after leaving known

landmark(地界碑). That is why you should always carry a compass. In open country

during the day, you can tell which way to go by studying the sun. At night the stars are sure guides to direction. But in most places the jungle rooftop is so thick that it is impossible to see the sun or the stars. Again and again you must check your

position by the compass.

Keep alert(警惕的). Watch the ground in front of you carefully. Stop and listen now and again. Avoid haste(匆忙), and rest often. In a place that is hot and humid(潮湿的), the person who sets a fast pace will soon become tired. A steady and even

pace is wisest in the long run.

If you lose your way, don't panic. Try to decide how long it has been since you were sure of your position. Mark the spot where you are with blazes on a tree. Put

them on four sides of the tree, so that you will be able to see them from any direction. Then you can begin retracing your steps(going back exactly the way you have come), knowing that you can always find the spot from which you started. Except in an

emergency, never try to travel the jungle at night.

Whenever possible, it is wise to follow streams and rivers that are going in

your general direction. This may cause you many extra miles of travel. But in the

end it will save time and energy. Nothing is more exhausting(extremely tiring) than hacking(cutting) a way through unbroken jungle.

Surviving in the jungle is a science. The jungle people have become perfect in this science, and you can too. Learn as much as you can about what to expect in the jungle. Make sure you have the right equipment. Then no part of the jungle will seem completely or frightening. In fact, you will be able to “live off” it for a long time.

67. To keep alive in the jungle, you should make it clear that the right equipment

is _________.

A. more important than a knowledge of woodcraft

B. less important than a knowledge of woodcraft

C. just as important as a knowledge of woodcraft

D. not as important as a knowledge of woodcraft

68. If you lose your way in the jungle, which of the following can NOT be done?

A. Check your position by the compass again and again.

B. Decide how long ago it was that you got lost.

C. Tell which way to go by studying the sun/the stars.

D. Mark blazes on four sides of a tree and be sure to see them from any direction.

69. The author is strongly against traveling at night probably because __________.

A. one tends to move too slowly at night

B. some animals will attack you

C. emergencies occur most frequently at night

D. it is more difficult to check your position

70. “I t is wise to follow streams and rivers”, which will ensure you to _________.

A. avoid animals’ attacks

B. save many extra miles of travel

C. avoid hacking a way through unbroken jungle

D. have a rich supply of drinking water

Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in

the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83.

During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if

a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if

he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.

Opposite(相反的) to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you

will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably

lose more weight if you reduce your lunch and super!

71. During the test, those who were tested were given ________.

A. no breakfast at all

B. very rich breakfasts

C. little food for breakfast

D. different breakfast or none

72. The results of the test show that ________.

A. breakfast has great effect on work and studies

B. breakfast has little to do with a person’s work

C. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfast

D. those working with brains should have much for breakfast

73. The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will _________.

A. lose weight

B. not lose weight

C. be healthier

D. gain a lot of weight

74. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with brains.

B. Morning diet may cause one person to get fatter.

C. Reducing lunch and supper is of less help in weight losing.

D. Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight.

书面表达

One possible version:

Encouragements can serve as a ray of hope during difficult times. The best ones to encourage a depressed soul are our friends.

It was three years ago when I just began to attend High School. For the first

time I failed in an English exam which I thought I was best at. I felt very depressed. My best friend, Lily, tried to comfort me, offering her emotional support. She

listened to me c arefully and told me E dison succeeded in inventing the electric bulb after failing more than 300 times. Eventually, with her patient encouragement, I

overcame depress and was determined to try hard again. In the next exam, I did it.

Encouragement is the best means to help someone feel better. It can give the

courage to fight difficulties and motivate someone to move on.
