Adrian’s “Amazing Race” started early when his parents realized that he, as a baby, couldn’t
hear a thing, not even loud noises. In a special school for the hearing-impaired (听觉受损的)，he
learned sign language and got to mix with other disabled children. However, the sight of all the
disabled children communicating with one another upset his mother. She wanted him to lead a
normal life. So after speaking to an advisor, she sent him to private classes where he learned to
read lips and pronounce words.
Later on, Adrian’s parents decided to send him to a regular school. But the headmaster tried
to prevent them from doing so, saying regular school couldn’t take care of a special needs students.
His parents were determined to take the risk and push him hard to go through his work everyday
because they wanted to prove that, given the opportunity, he could do anything. Adrian made the
grade and got accepted. It was a big challenge. The pace （节奏）was faster so he had to sit at the
front of the class and really pay attention to the teacher, which wasn’t always easy. But he stuck to
it and did a lot of extra work after school.
The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off. Adrian graduated with good grades and
got into a top high school. He also achieved a lot in life outside school. He developed a love for
the outdoors and went to Nepal to climb mountains. He even entered the World Yacht Race
05/06--- being the first hearing-impaired Asian to do so.
But none of these achievements would have been possible without one of the most important
lessons from his mother.” “If you believe in yourself and work hard, you can achieve great
results.” She often said.

Hi, everyone. What would you miss most and least if you were stuck on a
desert island? For me, it would be the changing seasons in New England. I
guess this will sound stupid but I’d probably miss the rain, too. I wouldn’t
miss getting up at six every day to go to work, though! What about you?
Good question. Steve, I think I’d miss different types of bread, and shopping
at the supermarket. I’d miss the food most. What would I miss least? My
mobile phone---I’d like to be completely quiet --- at least for a little while
I would miss the company of people because I know I’d like to have
someone to share experiences with. I’d go mad on my own. And I sure
wouldn’t miss junk mail(垃圾邮件) --- I hate coming home every evening
and a pile of junk mail in my post box.
Hi, I would miss Manga cartoon, the internet and Japanese food, like sushi.
I’d also miss TV shows and shopping for clothes… In fact, I’d miss
everything.
I would miss my daily newspaper and listening to the news on TV and
radio. I’d feel very cut off if I didn’t know what was happening in the world.
What I’d miss least would be traffic jams in the city, particularly my journey
to work.
Why hasn’t anyone mentioned their family? I’d be lost without my husband
and two kids. They’re the most important for me. And I can’t get started in
the morning without a cup of black coffee. I wouldn’t miss doing the
housework!

A Brown University sleep researcher has some advice for people who run high schools:
Don’t start classes so early in the morning. It may not be that the students who nod off at their
desks are lazy. And it may not be that their parents have failed to enforce (确保) bedtime. Instead,
it may be that biologically these sleepyhead students aren’t used to the early hour.
“Maybe these kids me being asked to rise at the wrong time for their bodies,” says Mary
Carskadon, a professor looking at problem of adolescent (青春期的) sleep at Brown’s School of
Medicine.
Carskadon is trying to understand more about the effects of early school time in adolescents.
And, at a more basic level. she and her team are trying to learn more about how the biological
changes of adolescence affect sleep needs and patterns.
Carskadon says her work suggests that adolescents may need more sleep than they did at
childhood, no less, as commonly thought.
Sleep patters change during adolescence, as any parent of an adolescent can prove. Most
adolescents prefer to stay up later at nigh and sleep later in the morning. But it’s not just a matter
of choice –their bodies are going through a change of sleep patters.
All of this makes the transfer from middle school to high school—which may start one hour
earlier in the morning ---- all the more difficult , Carskadon says. With their increased need for
sleep and their biological clocks set on the “sleep late, rise late” pattern, adolescent are up against
difficulties when it conics to trying to be up by 5 or 6 a.m. for a 7:30 a.m. first hell. A short sleep
on a desktop may be their body’s way of saying. “I need a timeout.”
48. Carskadon suggests that high schools should not start classes so early in the morning because
________.
A. it is really tough for parents to enforce bedtime
B. it is biologically difficult for students to rise early
C. students work so late at night that they can’t get up early
D. students are so lazy that they don’t like to go to school early
49. The underlined phrase “nod off” most probably means “ _______”.
A. turn around B. agree with others C. full asleep
D. refuse to work
50. What might be a reason for the hard transfer middle school to high school?
A. Adolescents depend more on their parents.
B. Adolescents have to choose their sleep patterns.
C. Adolescents sleep better than they did at childhood.
D. Adolescents need more sleep than they used to.
51. What is the test mainly about?
A. Adolescent heath care. B. Problems in adolescent learning.
C. Adolescent sleep difficulties. D. Changes in adolescent sleep needs and patterns.

For a while, my neighborhood was taken ever by an army of joggers(慢跑者). They were there all
the time: early morning, noon, and evening. There were little old ladies in gray sweats, young
couples in Adidas shoes, middle-aged men with red faces. “Come on!” My friend Alex encouraged
me to join him as he jogged by my house every evening. “You’ll feel great.”
Well, I had nothing against feeling great and if Alex could jog every day, anyone could. So I
took up jogging seriously and gave it a good two months of my life, and not a day more. Based on
my experience, jogging is the most overvalued form of exercise around, and judging from the
number of the people who left our neighborhood jogging army. I’m not alone in my opinion.
First of all, jogging is very hard on the body. Your legs and feet a real pounding（追击）ruining
down a road for two or three miles. I developed foot, leg, and back problems. Then I read about a
nationally famous jogger who died of a heart attack while jogging, and I had something else to
worry about. Jogging doesn’t kill hundreds of people, but if you have any physical weaknesses,
jogging will surely bring them out, as they did with me.
Secondly, I got no enjoyment out of jogging. Putting one foot in front of the other for
forty-five minutes isn’t my idea of fun. Jogging is also a lonely pastime. Some joggers say, “I love
being out there with just my thoughts”Well, my thoughts began to bore me, and most of them were
on how much my legs hurt.
And how could I enjoy something that brought me pain? And that wasn’t just the first week:
it was practically every day for two months. I never got past the pain level, and pain isn’t fun.
What a cruel way to do it! So many other exercises, including walking, lead to almost the same
results painlessly, so why jog?
I don’t jog any more, and I don’t think I ever will. I’m walking two miles three times a week at
a fast pace, and that feels good. I bicycle to work when the weather is good. I’m getting exercise,
and I’m enjoying it at the same time. I could never say the same for jogging, and I’ve found a lot
of better ways to stay in shape.
52. From the first paragraph, we learn that in the writer’s neighborhood ______.
A. jogging became very popular B. people jogged only during the daytime
C. Alex organized an army of joggers
D. jogging provided a chance to get together
53. The underlined word “them”(Paragraph 3) most probably refers to _____.
A. heart attacks B. Back problems C. famous joggers D. physical weaknesses
54. What was the writer’s attitude towards jogging in the beginning?
A. He felt it was worth a try. B. He was very fond of it.
C. He was strongly against it. D. He thought it must be painful.
55. Why did the writer give up jogging two months later?
A. He disliked doing exercise outside.
B. He found it neither healthy nor interesting.
C. He was afraid of having a heart attack.
D. He was worried about being left alone.
56. From the writer’s experience, we can conclude that______.
A. not everyone enjoys jogging
B. he is the only person who hates jogging
C. nothing other than jogging can help people keep fit
D. jogging makes people feel greater than any other sport.

A simple piece of clothesline hangs between some environmentally friendly Americans and
their neighbors.
On one side stand those who see clothes dryers(干衣机) as a waste of energy and a major
polluter of the environment. As a result, they are turning to clotheslines as part of the “what-I –can
do environmentalism(环境保护主义).”
On the other side are people who are against drying clothes outside, arguing that clotheslines
are unpleasant to look at. They have persuaded Homeowners Associations (HOAs) access the U.S.
to ban outdoor clotheslines, because clothesline drying also tends to lower home value in the
neighborhood. This had led to a Right-to-Dry Movement that is calling for laws to be passed to
protect people’s right to use clotheslines.
So far, only three states have laws to protect clothesline. Right-to-Dry supporters argue that
there should be move.
Matt Reck, 37, is the kind of eco-conscious(有生态意识的) person who feeds his trees with
bathwater and reuses water drops from his air conditioners to water plants. His family also uses a
clothesline. But on July 9, 2007, the HOA in Wake Forest, North Carolina, told him that a
dissatisfied neighlzir had telephoned them about him clothesline. The Recks paid no attention to
the warming and still dried their clothes on a line in the yard. “Many people say they are
environmentally friendly but they don’t take matters in their own hands,” says Reck. The local
