My First Marathon（马拉松）
A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was ＂not athletic＂.
The idea that I was ＂not athletic＂stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: ＂GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!＂
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, I was starving!
As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a ＂marathon winner＂.
4. A month before the marathon, the author ____________.
A. was well trained
B. felt scared
C. lost hope
D. made up his mind to run
5. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?
A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.
B. To amuse the readers with a funny story.
C. To share a precious memory.
D. To show he was not talented in sports.
6. How was the author's first marathon?
A. He made it.
B. He quit halfway.
C. He got the first prize.
D. He walked to the end.
7. What does the story mainly tell us?
A. A man owes his success to his family support.
B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. A winner is one with a great effort of will.
D. One is never too old to learn.
C
The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap(间隙) with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs.
Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what maybe implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection.
Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.
Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient’s silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.
8.What does the author say about silence in conversations?
A. It implies anger.
B. It promotes friendship.
C. It is culture-specific.
D. It is content-based.
9.Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?
A. The Chinese.
B. The French.
C. The Mexicans.
D. The Russians.
10.What does the author advise nurses to do about silence?
A. Let it continue as the patient pleases.
B. Break it while treating patients.
C. Evaluate its harm to patients.
D. Make use of its healing effects.
11.What may be the best title for the text?
A. Sound and Silence
B. What It Means to Be Silent
C. Silence to Native Americans
D. Speech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold
D
If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago，we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question．
It is the same in history．Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war．Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write．For example，we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago，because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them．But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in Central Africa，because they had not learned to write．
Sometimes，of course，even if the people cannot write，they may know something of the past．They have heard about it from older people，and often songs, dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung，acted and told for many generations，for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past．This we may call “remembered history”．Some of it had been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is，because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing．But where there are no written records，such spoken stories are often very helpful．
12. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?
A. “Remembered history” , compared with written history, is 1ess reliable．
B. Where there are no written records of the past, there is no history．
C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to remember the events that
happened in the past．
D. Written records of the past play a most important role in our learning the human
history．
13. Why do we know little about what happened in Central Africa 200 years ago?
A. People there had not known how to write in those days．
B. There was nothing worth being written down at that time．
C. The written records were perhaps destroyed in a fire．
D. People there ignored the importance of keeping a record．
14. “Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when ．
A. it is written down
B. it proves to be true
C. people are interested in it
D. no written account is available
15. It can be inferred from the passage that we could have learned much more about our past than
we do now if our ancestors had ．
A. told exact stories of the most important happenings
B. not burnt their written records in wars
C. kept a written record of every past event
D. made more songs and dances

No one is born a winner. People make themselves into winners by their own 21 .
I learned this lesson from a(n) 22 many years ago. I took the head 23 job at a school in Baxley, Georgia. It was a small school with a weak football program. It was a tradition for the school's old team to play against the 24 team at the end of spring practice. The old team had no coach, and they didn't even practice to 25 the game.

From the experience I learnt a lot about how the attitude of the leader can 38 the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and 39 them. I helped them to see themselves 40 ,and they built themselves into winners.

金代元好问《示侄孙伯安》诗云：“伯安入小学，颖悟非凡貌，属句有夙性，说字惊老师。

”于是看，宋元时期小学教师被称为“老师”有案可稽。

清代称主考官也为“老师”，而一般学堂里的先生则称为“教师”或“教习”。

可见，“教师”一说是比较晚的事了。

如今体会，“教师”的含义比之“老师”一说，具有资历和学识程度上较低一些的差别。

辛亥革命后，教师与其他官员一样依法令任命，故又称“教师”为“教员”。

Dear headmaster,
Nowadays mobile phones are becoming more and more popular among the high school students. In my opinion, we should bring mobile phones to school. Here are my reasons.
As we know, the 21st century is a modern age and full of information. A mobile phone is one of the quickest tools for us to exchange information. The mobile phone is a fashionable and useful invention, so we ought to make the best use of it. Suppose there's a sudden accident, it is more convenient for us to dial for help immediately. There're also some games in the mobile phone. We can relax ourselves by playing them when we're tired of our studies. In my opinion, it's not wrong to follow the fashion, but the most important thing is how to use the mobile phone in a right way.。
