9．Itzhak Perlman，a famous violinist，came on stage to give a concert．He was stricken with polio（小兒麻痹癥）as a child，so getting on stage is no small（56 ）achievement（achieve）．
The audience sat quietly while he made his way across the stage（57）to/towards/towardhis chair and began his play．But this time，（58）somethingwent wrong．Just as he finished the first part，one of the strings on his violin （59）broke（break）．We thought that he would have to stop the concert．But he didn't．（60）Instead/Actually，he waited a moment，closed his eyes and then signaled the conductor to begin again．
（61）Powerful（power） and pure，his performance attracted all the attention．
Of course，anyone believes（62）itimpossible to play a harmonious work with just three strings．I know that，and you know that，but that night Itzhak Perlman refused（63 ）to know （know） that．
When he finished，people rose and cheered．
（64）Smiling（smile），he wiped the sweat and said，"You know，sometimes it is the artist's task to find out how much music you can still make with （65）whatyou have left．"

8．Rapid advances in a new technology will soon transform science fiction into reality--meaning people will have driverless cars，small robots at their command and the ability to experience being in another place without leaving home，predicted Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona，the planet's largest cell phone trade show．
Introduction of books available online，Internet translation of languages and voice recognition for computers all happened much faster than anyone could foresee and that technological research into even more previously unheard of advances is progressing at a fast speed．
"People who predict that holograms（全息圖）and self-driving cars will become reality soon are absolutely right，"Schmidt told thousands of attendees．Research under way will lead to situations where people can put themselves at events like a rock concert so that they can see，hear and even feel the event．And turn down the volume，if it's too loud．
One attendee said she was scared that the possibility could be dehumanizing，but Schmidt replied by holding up his cell phone into the air．"It has an off button and it is here on the right，"Schmidt said．"My point is that it is all about your control．If you don't like my version of a rock concert，I'm not forcing you to go．"In the future，small robots could be used so busy people can send them to events for video and voice transmissions when their presence isn't required，Schmidt said．
Technology in the near future will redefine the relationship among people in the world．"With technology comes power and with power comes choice，and smarter resourceful citizens are going to demand a better deal for their new life，"Schmidt said．

7．This day marks the rising of a new food startup，the first company to be financed entirely by the crowd，and of it every business thus relies on thousands of customers to grow．Lisa，25，its main founder and CEO，believes it will be a path that will become increasingly popular，and ultimately will produce more thriving（繁榮的）businesses from the scratch．
"In the food industry，no venture capital （VC，風(fēng)險投資） will even look at you until you've hit a million in sales．As a fresh hand in business，unless you're independently wealthy，you will likely need to raise some money before then，"Lisa complained．So few businesses approached VC firms at the beginning．It was no exception with her．Thus，she turned to a new financing tool at hand，crowdfunding，to raise money from the crowd who'd like to take a bet on her company．
But for a company，it didn't make sense to seek investments when all they had was an idea and a few months of consumer testing data．The food market is extremely competitive．No investor would put money behind a totally unproven new superfood product founded by a bunch of twenty-somethings．"But we had a story．And crowds love stories．"Lisa said delightedly．So she put together an online crowdfunding campaign，explaining how she began working with this amazingly nutritious plant in the Peace Corps and then started selling it in the U．S．to support the poor in the West Africa．
On the online platform where they were to raise the money，a friend convinced them to change their goal from﹩20，000 to﹩50，000．Lisa stayed up all night worrying they wouldn't hit it．But they reached﹩24，000 in 24 hours and ended their funding with﹩53，000．Seeing the number，Lisa said，"Thank you!To my crowd and for your belief!"
 
24．Why couldn't Lisa get investments in a traditional way？C
A．She lacked confidence in business．
B．Her food company was in poor condition．
C．VC demanded too much in choosing partners．
D．Consumers were not satisfied with her new products．
25．According to the passage，crowdfundingD．
A．ensures the investors a good return
B．a(chǎn)ims to help badly managed companies
C．a(chǎn)ttracts more people to become investors
D．helps startups deal with money shortages
26．The underlined word"twenty-somethings"refers toB．
A．twenty impractical ideas
B．young people over twenty
C．twenty inexperienced partners
D．a(chǎn) company with twenty branches
27．Which of the following best explains Lisa's success？C
A．Great minds think alike．
B．Honesty is the best policy．
C．Many hands make light work．
D．A friend in need is a friend indeed．

6．It was dangerously cold．A few drivers slipping and sliding off the road and back on again had cut deep ruts（車轍）in the mud．And the ruts became frozen solid．The drum of our truck's aging engine worried us．
Trees and bushes heavy with snow bent to form an icy tunnel．We inched along the scary route as Howard grasped the steering wheel（方向盤）tightly，trying to keep the truck in the ruts．We were now riding through a nightmare with no going back．I kept praying the truck would not quit．
However，the engine's coughing grew worse．We came to a bumping stop．Hot tears ran down my face．We noticed a small house off in the distance．"I will go for help．"Howard's words ruined my common sense and panic took over．We would take the children-we would walk to that house together!
But the snow was deep，and our two children，asleep in the cab，were too heavy to carry．My husband convinced me to let him go alone．If no one was home or they didn't answer the door，he would come back and we'd try to hike out to a main road．For now，it was safer in the truck．I wish I could say I have faith，but when he walked away，I was mad at the world．
It seemed as if hours had passed before I heard a familiar voice and a kind laugh of another man as they approached in the snow．The older fellow invited us to go up to the house where his wife was waiting．Two wide-awake kids moved across the seat，ready for adventure．Their voices and laughter carried in the cold night air．When we finally got close，a cheerful woman opened the door．Warm air and the smell of hot buttered popcorn and chocolate drew us in．
Relieved，my prayers were heard!

5．When I was six，Dad brought home a dog（56）called（call）"Brownie"．Brownie got along well with every member in our family．She would go to（57）whoeverwas sick and just be with them．We always felt much（58）better（good） when she was around．
One day，as I was getting her food，she（59）bit（bite） a hole out of one of Dad's shoes．I scolded her，（ 60）telling（tell） her what she did was wrong．She looked down at the ground and then went and hid．I saw tears in her eyes．
Brownie went everywhere with us．People would stop and ask if they could pet her．Of course she'd let anyone pet her．She was just the most lovable dog．There were many times（61）whenwe'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair．She never barked or tried to get away．The（62）funny/funniest（fun） thing was that she would smile．This frightened people because（63）theythought she was showing her teeth．Far from the truth，she loved everyone．
Now many years have passed since Brownie（64）died（die） of old age．I still miss the days when she was（65）with/aroundus．
