    The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single—engined aeroplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn't know how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged (冲) into the sea.

    Football, to me, is more than just a game. I have probably learned more than valuable lessons from it than from school.
    When I joined the team freshman year, I didn’t realize what I was getting into. Even though I had been playing since fourth grade and knew it was hard work, nothing would prepare me for the effort I would put into football that year. We worked all summer in the weight room and ran on the track to get in physical and mental shape before the season.
    See, football is more of a mental sport than anything else, so running on the track wasn’t only about getting in shape . We would push our minds by running as hard as we could even if we felt like we were going to pass out. At the beginning, I was immature (幼稚的) and only thought of myself, sometimes even giving up when I was tired or hurting. Then after the third game I had a season-ending injury. Imagine working all summer and then only being able to play three games! I needed surgery on my arm and at least five months to recover.
    After freshman year I decided that I would always give my best effort. Playing varsity (大学代表队) football has taught me so much more than just what my tasks are on a particular play or how to block. I have learned to think about others first, and realized how important working hard is. Being with all my friends, even sweating and bleeding with them, really made us unite as a group of hard-working young men, who will succeed in life.
    65. What is the text mainly about?
    A. How the author dislikes the game of football.
    B. When the author began to play football.
    C. How the author has changed his attitude to football.
    D. What sport the author likes best.
    66. The author thinks football is ________.
    A. just a game    B. of a mental sport    C. hard to pass out  D. not worth his effort
    67. From the text we can infer ________.
    A. the author joined the football team with a clear aim.
    B. football only brought the author certain tasks
    C. the author worked all summer to get ready for the season.
    D. the author never lost heart when he met with difficulties.
    68. In the third paragraph, the phrase “getting in shape” probably means ________.
    A. becoming physically fit             B. designing the playground
    C. losing weight                     D. measuring the track

    NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.
    Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce ,or possibly erase(抹去),the effect of painful memories.
    In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
    The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, While others support it.
    Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.
    "Some memories can ruin people's lives . They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."
    But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.
    "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.
    1. The passage is mainly about_____________.
    A. a new medical invention          B. a new research on the pill
    C. a way of erasing painful memories  D. an argument about the research on the pill
    2. The drug tested on people can_____________.
    A. cause the brain to fix memories
    B. stop people remembering bad experiences
    C. prevent body producing certain chemicals
    D. Wipe out the emotional effects of memories
    3. We can infer from the passage that_____________.
    A. people doubt the effects of the pills
    B. the pill will stop people's bad experiences
    C. taking the pill will do harm to people's health
    D. the pill has probably been produced in America
    4. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?
    A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.
    B. People want to get rid of bad memories.
    C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.
    D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.

    “ Fire! Fire!” What terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night! It was a large, old, wooden house and my room was on the top floor. I jumped out of bed, opened the door and stepped outside the house. There was full of thick smoke.
    I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see fire all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open    door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.
    I saw a doorway in fire, then I put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terrible, but I got through. As I reached the cold air outside, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry, I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I was in a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a night-dress and a borrowed man’s coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.
    She was the Mayor’s wife, and I had saved her baby.

    C
    Have you noticed that the majority of human beings seem to focus on the negative? Bad news is often seen in the newspapers, television shows and magazines, but good news are often overlooked.
    I saw a woman I was not very familiar with. She is a beautiful woman; every time I see her, I am struck by the smile on her face that can light up a whole room. So at one time I walked up to her and said, “You know, you are like liquid sunshine! Every time I see you, you give me so much joy.” I was not quite prepared for her reaction. She was blown away. Her eyes seemed about to shed tears, and she said, “That is so sweet! That is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me!” It was as if nobody had ever told her how beautiful her appearance was. I was extremely moved by the moment I had shared with this woman.
    Why not take notice of the positive and spread a little sunshine? When you are looking for beauty, you will begin to see it more and more. When you discover it, don’t be afraid to appreciate it. Not only will it make them feel good, it will make you feel good as well. I truly believe the saying, “What goes around, comes around.” When you show kindness and sincerity, you will receive it back. You may even discover — much to your surprise — that you become the friend of someone you would never have expected to get along with.
    65. The woman had tears in her eyes because __________.
    A. the man’s behavior was so rude
    B. she was nervous about the man’s words
    C. the man told her the fact she didn’t know
    D. she was so excited at the man’s praise
    66. Which of the following can take the place of the underlined sentence in the third paragraph?
    A. The wise appreciate one another. 
    B. Respect yourself, or no one else will respect you.
    C. There is kindness to be found everywhere.
    D. Everybody should learn to praise others.
    67. The best title for the passage probably is _____.
    A. Pay attention to the positive   B. Everyone likes to be praised
    C. Spread a little sunshine       D. Each of us has good points
