Ⅱ阅读理解
At 39 weeks pregnant most women would only be thinking of
racing to hospital. But not Amber Miller, who set off to run
the Chicago Marathon while expecting her second child any day.
As she neared the final stage of the race, she began to
feel pain in the stomach. But the determined athlete managed to cross the finish line in 6 hours and 25 minutes.
Unbelievably the Chicago race w as not even baby June’s first marathon—Miller ran the Wisconsin Marathon earlier this year, four months pregnant. She also ran another marathon when she was about four months pregnant with her son, Caleb.
Although there was extra weight, the seasoned runne r’s time was just 3 hours off her personal best.
Miller began to feel pain near the end of the race, but she was not sure if it was labor(分娩), because she typically feels some pain when she runs while pregnant. After her race her husband drove her to Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield where she gave birth to the healthy 7 pounds, 13 ounce baby.
Miller decided to run because she and her husband had already signed up for the race. The athletic mother said she experienced an enthusiastic welcome from crowds
as she ran along. But the devoted runner, who had completed eight marathons, admitted that she did get a few strange looks along the course.
“I know what I can handle. This is something I’ve been doing for a long time，”the experienced marathon runner said.
June was born at 10：29 p．m. on Sunday night after seven hours’ labor. “She’s absolutely perfect，” Miller said. “We are extremely happy, but very tired.”
After her surprising double achievement, Miller says she is planning to take some time off to concentrate on being a fulltime mom.

Ⅳ短文改错
In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday, I took driving lessons.
I still remember how hard first day was. Before getting into the car, I thought I had learned the instructor’s orders, so once I started the car, my mind goes blank.
I forgot what he had said to me altogether. The instructor kept repeating the word, “Speed up！” “Slow down！” “Turning left！” I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction
was left. A few minutes late, the instructor asked me to stop the car. It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the middle on the road.
答案：
