According to Greek legend, in ancient Athens a man noticed the great storyteller Aesop playing childish games with some little boys. He 36 and made fun of Aesop, asking him why he wasted his time in such 37 games.Aesop responded by 38 a bow, loosening its string, and placing it on the ground. Then he said to the critical man, “Now, 39 the riddle(迷), if you can. Tell us what the unstrung bow means.”The man 40 at it for several minutes but had no idea about what 41 Aesop was trying to make. Aesop 42 ,“If you keep a bow always bent, it will break 43 ; but if you let it go loose, it will be more 44 for use when you want it.”So it is with us. Our minds and bodies are like the 45 .When often under the 46 of everyday life, we can finally 47 .We need to loosen up; we need time to 48 the pressure off and relax.Former baseball pitcher(投球手) Dutch Leonard might have put it a little differently. He once said that the 49 of great pitching is not speed or the ability to throw curves(曲线球). It’s the “change of pace”. Even the 50 batter(击球手) will soon learn how to hit a pitcher who continually throws the same kind of pitch. But it’s 51 to hit a pitcher who changes the pace of pitching. That 52 of pace gives a pitcher an advantage over the other pitchers.A change of pace also gives us a(n) 53 in life. Taking time to watch the clouds, enjoy a breeze, take a walk, read just slowdown is 54 if we are to be our best later. And a regular day of rest is as important as regular sleep. It’s a 55 of taking the pressure off.To be your best, make sure you change your pace. It may just be the change you need.36.A.wondered B. laughed C. shouted D. cried37.A.wise B. bright C. foolish D. false38.A.picking up B. throwing away C. making up D. putting down39.A.make B. answer C. follow D. ask40.A.stopped B. aimed C. smiled D. looked41.A.point B. legend C. idea D. plan42.A.answered B. replied C. explained D. called43.A.finally B. certainly C. firstly D. generally44.A.possible B. car eful C. hopeful D. fit45.A.string B. bow C. riddle D. activity46.A.routine B. control C. pressure D. pain47.A.fall B. break C. die D. pass48.A.put B. catch C. give D. take49.A.secret B. solution C. ability D. method50.A.great B. successful C. average D. smart51.A.easy B. hard C. likely D. usual52.A.kind B. game C. change D. speed53.A.advantage B. road C. bottom D. center54.A.convenient B. necessary C. acceptable D. reasonable55.A.trick B. result C. beginning D. way第三部分阅读理解（共20 小题，每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A, B, C和D)中，选出最佳选项.并在答且卡上将该项涂黑。
