is an American sport，and a big part of being American，playing catch is kind of an all﹣American dad activity．In the suburbs（郊区），most people have backyards﹣not（21）enough to play baseball in，but just big enough for a game of catch．Those who have no（22）can play in the street or in the park．When adults are asked to talk about the good（23）of their dads，many of them will say something about playing catch．Why？Probably because dads are usually very （24）．A catch game is a time that is only for one thing．This is a time when a kid has her dad's（25）．There is no work，no phone and no other people around to take your dad away from you．For the time that it takes to play a game of catch，your dad is all yours．16．A．interesting B．boring C．amazing D．exciting 17．A．basketball B．baseball C．football

a company from the ground up，leading New York City as mayor（市长），and so on．Take RisksLife is too short to spend your time avoiding failure．In 1981，at the age of 39，I lost my job．The next day I took a big risk and began myown company．In 2001，when I was debating whether to run for mayor，most people advised me not to do it．But one person said，"If you can imagine yourself giving a concession（败选）speech，then why not go for it？"That was the best advice I received，and I followed it．In order to succeed，you must first be willing to fail﹣and you must have the courage to go for it anyway．Make your own luckLuck plays a part in success．The harder you work，the luckier you get．Whatever you choose to do，even if it's not the job of your dreams，always work hard at it．Be the first person at work in the morning and the last to leave at night．Hard work creates chances．Never stop learningThe most powerful word in English language is"why"．There is nothing so powerful as an open，inquiring mind（探究精神）．Whatever field you choose for starting a business﹣be a lifelong student．Give backYou are responsible for your success and failure，but you only succeed if you share the reward with others．My first donation was a 5check to my alma mater （母校）．And while the checks （支票）may be bigger today，they come with the same spirit．You don't have to be wealthy to give back．You can give back

find the article？A．Family LifeB．Interesting StoriesC．Experience SharingD．Adventures．41．（10分）Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes!The program works because everyone's eyes are different．So in the future you won't have to remember the number of your credit card when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank．You'll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are．The eye﹣recognition（眼睛识别）program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA，Britain，Spain，Italy and Turkey．Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are．Eye﹣recognition is a course of recognizing iris（虹膜），which includes the following steps．First，a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one's iris from his eyes and store them．Second，when this person goes to the bank to take out money，this machine will have iris feature extraction（采集）．Then，this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction．Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same，this person will be identified，and he will take out the money from the bank successfully．However，scientists are also working on other systems．Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell!We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger．Eye﹣recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don't change as you get older，and don't get dirty like hands or fingers，and even twins have different eyes．So the eye﹣recognition program can be up to 94% correct，depending on how good the technology is．However，some other programs may only be 51% correct now．In Britain，it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea ofeye﹣recognition．In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye．So smile!41．The program has been tested in shops and banks in．A．America and ChinaB．Spain and JapanC．Britain and TurkeyD．Italy and German42．According to the steps in Paragraph 3，which picture shows how the eye recognition happens？43．According to

people．B．Some special things of other programmes．C．The places where other programmes are tested．D．Some old machines used to identify people．45．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？A．All the eye﹣recognition programs can be up to 94% correct．B．In Britain，91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye recognition．C．Everyone's eyes are different，even twins have different eyes．D．Some other programs used to be 51% correct．第二节阅读填空（共1小题；每小题5分，满分5分）阅读短文及文后选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．46．（5分）March 20th is World Water Day every year．According to a report from the
