One reader wrote:“My two children love Secretariat, the horse that has been winning all the races. They would like to know if it would be possible to get one of Secretariat’s shoes.”The result was that the children were sent one of the racing shoes worn by the famous horse when he won at Churchill Downs in Kentucky.Sometimes there is real problem to be solved (settled). During the spring of 1973 MR FIX-IT learned that a young nurse from the Philippines was near death in an American hospital thousands of miles from home. She had no relatives in the United States and no close friends. MR FIX-IT located her sister in the Philippines and helped the sister get the government papers she needed in order to visit the United States. In the meantime, readers of the newspaper sent money to pay for her travel. Though there were many difficulties, the young nurse managed to have her sister at her side before she died.61.“Secretariat” is_______.A. a popular English singerB. a famous racing horseC. a splendid American filmD. a wonderful horse shoe62. Where was the nurse from?_____.A. AsiaB. AfricaC. AmericaD. Europe63. The word “locate” in this passage probably means “________.”A. knowB. findC. sendD. take64. Which of the following is true according to this passage?________.A. The Philippine nurse died in KentuckyB. The nurse died while she was working in the hospitalC. The nurse saw her sister before she diedD. Readers of the newspaper sent money to the nurseBIf you see someone drowning, speed is very important. Once you get him out of the water, if he isn’t breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is completely destroyed. Support his neck, tilt(使翘起) his head back and press his chin (下巴) upwards. This stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometime enough to get him breathing again. If that doesn’t work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. Press his nostrils(鼻孔) together with your fingers. Open your mouth and take a deep breath. Blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. Repeat twelve times a minute. Keep doing until help arrives.To bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and nose and gently blow into his mouth. Give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. If, in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue-grey color, and you can feel no pulse(脉搏), then pressing is the last chance of saving his life.With arms straight, rock forwards, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. Don’t be too hard or you may break a rib(肋骨). Check how effective you are seeing if his color improves or his pulse becomes independent to your chest pressing. If this happens , stop the pressing. Otherwise continue until rescue arrives.65. This passage is mainly about______.A. how to save people out of the waterB. how to give first aid to people who are drowningC how to do mouth-to-mouth breathing D. how to save a child from a river66. Once you get a drowning man out of the water, if he isn’t breathing, you must first_____.A. get him breathing againB. take him to the nearest hospital as soon as possibleC. find someone to help youD. call the First Aid Centre67. If the drowning boy has no pulse, ________.A. pressing his chin upwards is enough to get him breathingB. blowing air into his mouth is sure to save his lifeC. pressing his nostrils together with your fingers can workD. pressing is the last chance of saving his life68. Which of the following statements is true?A. If a man does not breathe for four minutes, his brain will be completely destroyed.B. If you see someone drowning, you must give him mouth-to-mouth breathing.C. Don’t stop pressing his chest, if the drowning man starts breathing again.D. When pressing, you can do it as hard as you can.CA man led his two children and wife to safety as a fire swept part of their home.The first fire happened early yesterday as Jim Eastwood and his wife lay asleep in their home at Price Road. Mrs. Eastwood, who was first to wake, got up and felt heat coming from downstairs. As soon as Mr. Eastwood jumped off the bed, he rushed downstairs to try to put out the blaze but the smoke and heat weretoo intense.Mrs. Eastwood got her children from their bedrooms and they hung out of a window gasping for fresh air.Mr. Eastwood, who dialed 999 while downstairs, then decided to climb out of his bedroom window to lead his wife and children to safety.

It’s recognition that something you’ve said or done has damaged a relationship and that you care enough about that relationship not to want it damaged.It’s never easy to acknowledge you are in the wrong. Being human, we all need the art of apology. Look back and think how often you’ve judged roughly, said unkind things, pushed yourself ahead at the expense of a friend. Some deep thought in us knows that when even a small mistake has been made, your feeling will stay out of balance until the mistake is acknowledged and regret expressed.I remember a doctor friend, the late Charence Lieb, telling me about a man who came to him with different illnesses; headaches, insomnia(失眠), stomachaches and so on. No physical cause could be found. Finally the doctor said to the man, “Unless you tell me what’s on your conscience(良心), I can’t help you.”After a short silence, the man told the doctor that he seized all her money that his father gave to his brother, who was abroad. His father had died, so only he himself knew the matter. The old doctor made the man write to his brother making an apology and enclosing(附上) a check. In the post office, the man dropped the letter into the mail chute (滑道). As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears.“Thank you, doctor,” he said. “I think I’m all right now.” And he was.73. According to this passage, a true apology should be ______.A. just an acknowledgement of a mistakeB. a recognition for something wrong you’ve said or doneC. a recognition that you don’t want your relationship damagedD. both B and C74. Paragraph2 tells us that ______.A. it’s easy to admit you are wrongB. it’s difficult to admit you are wrongC. your feeling is in the balance when you have made a small mistakeD. you don’t mind when you have said unkind things75. The reason why the man had many illnesses was that _______.A. he was in poor healthB. he was too oldC. he had a regret that he had never expectedD. he had some physical causesEMillions of people pass through the gates of Disney’s entertainment parks in California, Florida and Japan. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way they’re treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their “guests,” as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves.All new employees, from vice presidents to part-time workers begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking “Traditions 1,”Here, they learn about the company’s history, how it is managed and why it is successful. They are shown how each department relates to the whole. All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success.After passing “Traditions 1.”, the employees go on to more specialized training for their specific jobs. No detail is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eight-hour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied, “What happens if someone wants to know where the rest rooms are, when the parade（游行，检阅）starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds?...we need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party.”Even Disney’s managers get involved in the daily management of the park. Every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice-cream, take tickets or drive the monorail, and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park come alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the company’s goals more clearly.All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in America or the world. As one long-time business observer once said, “How Disney treats people, communicates with them, rewards them, is in my view the very reason for the fifty years of success…I have watched, very carefully and with great respect and admiration, the theory and practice of selling satisfaction and serving millions of people on an daily basis, successfully. It is what Disney does best.”76.The first day they come to Disney parks, all new employees _____.A. begin by receiving on-the-job trainingB. must learn several jobsC. begin as ticket takersD. have already attended Disney University77. The main objective（目的，目标）of the Disney employees is to ______.A. learn all parts of the businessB. see that their guests enjoy themselvesC. be able to answer all kinds of questionsD. keep their important guests happy78. Each year, managers wear special service clothes and work in the park to ______.A. set a good example for employeesB. remind themselves of their beginnings at DisneyC. gain a better view of the company’s objectivesD. replace employees on holiday79. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Tourists learn the history of Disney in its entertainment parks.B. Disney attracts people almost from all over the world.C. Parades are regularly held in Disney’s entertainment parks.D. Disney’s managers are able to do almost all kinds of work in the Disney parks.80. This passage is mainly about _____.A. how Disney employees are trainedB. the history and traditions of the Disney enterprises（事业/企业单位）C. why Disney enterprises make a lot of moneyD. the importance Disney places on serving people wellV. 短文改错：10分A lot of seagulls often flew to the airport in 81._________________England and keep flying about over it.
