20.Shawn Johnson is one of the strongest girls I know to compete in gymnastics.She was just 15 years old when she competed in the Olympic trails (選拔賽).She went to the Olympics in 2008 and competed in all four events with famous American gymnast Nastia Luikin.She was the balance beam (平衡木) gold medalist and team,all-round and floor exercise silver medalist at the Games.After the Olympics she was featuring on the hit reality show"Dancing with the Stars"in 2009-2010.It was not until she broke her knee in a January 2010 ski (滑雪) accident did she realize that she still wanted to compete.She made a comeback,aiming at the 2012 0lympic Games.But because of the continuing problems with her knee,she decided to finish her season and then retire from gymnastics.She felt she was worn out and wasn't as good as she was the first time.
My favorite things about her are her confidence and how hard she works.She always has a smile on her face even when times are difficult.She also took time away from gymnastics to help kids around the world get cleaner water.She has influenced my life because I wouldn't have known to actually try hard to get great dreams realized and I hope one day I become somewhat close to how she is in every possible way.She has also taught me not to be afraid of failing at the first time and to learn from my mistakes instead of considering them as a downfall (墮落的原因).I think more people should look at her as a role model.
One cool thing is that I got to see her compete at the Olympic trials in Maryland on my birthday.

分析 本文介紹了體操運(yùn)動(dòng)員Shawn Johnson及其對(duì)作者的影響.

解答 16.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段"It was not until she broke her knee in a January 2010 ski accident…She felt she wa s worn out and wasn't as good as she was the first time."可知,直到在2010年的一次滑雪事故中傷了膝蓋,她才意識(shí)到自己仍然想要比賽.于是她再次回歸,目標(biāo)是2012年奧運(yùn)會(huì).但是因?yàn)樗南ドw持續(xù)出現(xiàn)問題,她決定完成賽季之后退役.她覺得疲憊不堪,狀態(tài)不像初次參加比賽時(shí)那么好了.由此可知,Shawn Johnson退役是因?yàn)樗慕】禒顩r不佳.
17.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段第一句可知,"我"最喜歡她的自信和努力,由此可知,Shawn Johnson是自信和努力的;根據(jù)第二句可知,她即使在困難時(shí)期也永遠(yuǎn)面帶微笑,由此可知,她是樂觀的;根據(jù)三句可知,她在練習(xí)體操時(shí)還抽時(shí)間去幫助世界各地的孩子獲得更潔凈的水,由此可知,她是心地善良的.獨(dú)立的特點(diǎn)在文中沒有體現(xiàn).
18.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段"She has also taught me not to be afraid of failing at the first time and to learn from my mistakes instead of considering them as a downfall."可知,她還教會(huì)了"我"不要害怕第一次的失敗,要從錯(cuò)誤中吸取教訓(xùn)而不是把它們當(dāng)作墮落的借口.由此可知,作者從Shawn Johnson身上學(xué)到盡管人生中可能會(huì)有失敗,但要勇敢地去嘗試.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)人物故事類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).

5.Students all over Canada know that there are awards that they can apply for,but many of them do not know how many are out there.We will learn a bit more about these awards and find out what to do in order to apply.
Many awards are focused on a particular type of study that a student is taking.There are a lot of awards of this kind and they are offered by a lot of Canadian organizations.
Making the decision of what award to look into is another issue that students are unsure about.The guidance counselors(顧問) that are employed by the school can also help you determine the things that will be necessary for you to do.
Using the Internet can be another great way to find out about what awards are available.Many resources offer applications that are able to be completed right from the website.This can make the process a great deal faster,which can mean a lot to those in need of assistance.
Preparing all of the information that you need for filling out the forms beforehand is a good idea.This can take a lot of stress off this situation and you will not be running around to look for things because you are not prepared ahead of time.The less interruptions there are,the easier the process will be.
Not all of the awards are based on sports or academics.Many are available to students who are at a disadvantage of some sort due to a particular disability that they may have.Others are based only on where a person is from.Taking time to find out about the choices is important if you want to be sure to apply for all that you qualify (具備合格條件) for.
Many students greatly appreciate the help that these things bring them.Education costs are very high,and any financial help can reduce the stress of finances that a great many people have.
29.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A
A.Many students don't know which award to choose.
B.When filling out the forms,you should ask for help.
C.Many students don't know how many awards there are.

9.Hu Li's heart sank due to the color of the air.Driving 140 kilometers from Tianjin City to Beijing last week,she held her breath as the air became a charcoal grey haze(炭灰色的陰霾).The 39-year-old businesswoman has lived in Beijing for a decade,and this past month,she said,brought the worst air pollution she has ever seen.It gave her husband a cough and left her seven-year-old daughter housebound(足不出戶)."My husband as well as I is working here,so we have no choice,"she said."But if we had a choice,we'd like to escape from Beijing."
The extended heavy pollution over the last month,which caused punishment in return for a day last week-called the"airpocalypse"by internet users-has largely changed the way that Chinese think about the country's air.On one day,pollution levels were 30 times higher than levels considered safe by the World Health Organization (WHO).Flights were cancelled.Roads were closed.One hospital in east Beijing reported they had treated more than 900 children for breathing issues.Bloomberg found that for most of January,Beijing's air was worse than that of an airport smoking area.
The smog's(煙霧) most threatening aspect is its high concentration(濃度) of PM 2.5-particulate matter that is small enough to breathe deep into the lungs and enter the bloodstream,causing breathing infections,lung cancer and possibly damaging children's development.The WHO has estimated that outdoor air pollution accounts for two million deaths per year,65% of them in Asia.
32.Which conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?C
A.Hu Li is living in Beijing.
B.Hu Li traveled to Tianjin for business.
C.The haze is harmful to people.
D.The pollution is the worst in Beijing's history.
33.The haze affected people mainly inB.
A.the way they traveled
B.the opinion about national air
C.the way they lived their life
D.the life style of internet
34.From the passage we know high concentration of PM 2.5D.
A.can lead to choke
B.can cause heart cancer
C.will damage children's development
D.will damage people's organ
35.What's the best title for the passage?B
A.Hu Li's attitudes to Beijing's haze
B.The damages of Beijing's haze
C.WHO suggests improving Beijing's air
D.What caused air pollution in Beijing.
