You want to have fun and adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it. Sounds like a simple enough thing. And basically it is. But what is adventure? That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.
For those who love sports, adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history. The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure travel as white water rafting (白浪漂流), kayaking or climbing and hiking to some mountains somewhere. To the hiker, backpacking across Ireland might be their adventure. For this type of person, adventure travel almost always includes some-thing physical. Often the goal is to push their body’s limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).
For those who less want to climb mountains, adventure travel might mean traveling to Nepal and taking in the local festivals. Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for the more relaxed traveler who enjoys peace and comfort. Anything that is opposite to the normal scope (范围) of the traveler’s lifestyle defines (定义) adventure.
Adventure travel is not necessarily a one-size-fits-all type of vacation. Adventure depends on the per-son’s physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing. Going beyond the normal is adventurous for many. If your life is quite busy, then sitting on a beach in the moonlight with your family might be adventure for you. The point is not what you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for YOU — not for the person next to you.
Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around. Go beyond your normal routine and try something new. If you usually spend your vacation sun-bathing on a beach, try hiking, instead, through the mountains. Look around you, think beyond your comfort zone and head out on an adventure vacation.
51. For a quiet traveler, he is most likely to choose ______.
A. backpacking across a country B. wine tasting in a bar
C. hiking to some mountains D. white water rafting
52. To have an adventure travel, the most important is ______.
A. whether you enjoy yourself B. whether you try something dangerous
C. where you go for the traveling D. what you do in the traveling
53. The underlined word “beyond” in Paragraph 4 probably means “______”.
A. according to B. later than
C. more than D. less than
54. From the passage, we can make a conclusion that ______.
A. adventure travel always includes something dangerous
B. adventure travel will cost you a large sum of money
C. anything that goes beyond the normal is adventure travel
D. adventure travelers like to do things to the limits of their body
55. The best title for the passage may be “______”.
A. Tips on adventure travel B. Who is interested in adventure travel
C. What is adventure travel D. Popular places for adventure travel

When I was a teenager I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race. My job was to 36 water to the runners. I remember being so 37 to see all the different kinds of people who passed by and grabbed a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past. I saw so many types of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! So the next year I 38 up for the race.
That first 10,000m race was quite an 39 . I jogged, I walked, I jogged and I walked. 40 , I didn’t know if I could finish. Then came a defining (决定性) 41 .
At one point near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very, very fast, and I felt 42 because I was 50 years younger than he but I couldn’t even keep up with him. I felt 43 for a second.
But then I 44 something. He was running his race and I was running mine. He had 45 abilities, experience, training and goals for himself. I had mine. Remember my 46 was only to finish.
After a minute, it 47 me that this was a lesson I could draw from. I learned something about myself in that moment. I turned my embarrassment into 48 .
I 49 that I would not give up on running races. In fact, I would run even more races and I would learn how to train and prepare 50 and one day I would be one of those 70-year-old persons who were still running. As I crossed the finish line, I was proud of my 51 .
In life we all have those moments where we 52 ourselves to others. It’s only 53 . Don’t allow those moments to 54 you. Turn them into motivation and let them inspire you. With the proper preparation and training, you can improve your result to 55 anything you want in life.

III. 完形填空(20分)
An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left. When she heard her daddy say to her 36 mother with whispered desperation(绝望), “ 37 a miracle(奇迹) can save him now”, the little girl went to her bedroom and took out her piggy bank. She 38 all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Then she 39 her way six blocks to the local drugstore(药店).
“And what do you want?” asked the chemist.
“It’s 40 my little brother,” the girl answered back. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a 41 . His name is Andrew and he has something 42 growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.”
“We don’t 43 miracles here, child I’m sorry,” the chemist said, smiling 44 at the little girl.
In the shop was a 45 customer. He stooped (弯腰) down and asked the little girl, “What kind of miracle does your brother 46 ?”
“I don’t know,” she replied “He’s really sick and mommy says he needs 47 . But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought my 48 .”
“How much do you have?” asked the man.
“One dollar and eleven cents, 49 I can try and get some more,” she answered quietly.
“Well, what a coincidence(巧合),” smiled the man. “A dollar and eleven cents — the 50 price of a miracle for little brothers. 51 me to where you live. I want to see your brother and 52 your parents.”
That well dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon(外科医生). The operation was completed without 53 and it wasn’t long before Andrew was 54 again and doing well.
