5、 If you do not use your arms or your legs some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this and nobody would think of questioning this fact. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it frequently either consciously(自覺地) or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he doesn’t give it enough chances to become strong.

If a friend complains that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think his parents are to blame and that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much as his own fault as if it is his arms or legs that were weak.

 

69. It is true that the more you use your arms or legs, ___ .

A. the weaker they become

B. the stronger they become

C. they will be useless

D. the more helpless they are

70. When someone has a good memory, this is because ___ .

A. his parents are very clever

B. he was born clever

C. he keeps using his memory very often

D. he always does things in a correct way

71. If someone’s memory is poor, ___ .

A. his parents are to blame

B. he is unlucky

C. he has grown older

D. he should give it more chances to become strong

72. This passage mainly tells us that ___ .

A. one’s memory can be trained

B. one should practise using his arms or legs more frequently

C. if someone has a good memory, he is usually lucky

D. it’s his parents fault if he has a poor memory

4、  Desert plants fall into two sorts according to the way they deal with the problem of surviving drought. There are the drought―avoiders―those which persist(存留) only as seeds, ready to spring up when it rains, to flower quickly and produce another crop of seeds, and to die again. There are also the drought―resisters―those which have evolved various methods for strong water, locating underground water, or reducing their need for water by such devices as shedding their leaves. The drought―resisters are perennials(多年生植物),they manage to live from one rainy season to another, slowly growing bigger and bigger. Of these, the succulents(肉質的) is a small but interesting fraction(小部分). They may store water in their leaves, in their stems, or in underground containers.

  In the American deserts the best―known succulents are the cacti(仙人掌). They come in a wide range of sizes, from 50―foot tall giant saguaros(樹形仙人掌) to tiny round cacti about the size of a thumb―nail. They take thick, cylindrical(圓柱體的) or even spherical forms, thereby exposing a minimum of evaporating surface to the air and light. They are leafless, except in youth, and then the leaves are small. Typically their surfaces are spiny, discouraging thirsty animals, and channeled like an accordion(手風琴), so the fleshy stem may expand quickly when the plant drinks and contract slowly as it uses up the water. The root system is widespread and shallow, with good reason; only about 3 per cent of the rain that falls on the desert penetrates to any significant depth into soil.

 

65. The passage classifies(將……分類) the desert plants according to___ .

A. the ways they take to deal with the typical climatic condition in desert

B. their shape

C. how they use water

D. when they produce their seeds

66. According to the passage, some desert plants drop their leaves ___ .

A. because the temperature is too high

B. so that the plants can evaporate less water

C. because they are drought resisters

D. so that the plants can store more water

67. What interests the author most when he or she mentions succulents is that ___ .

A. they take thick cylindrical or even spherical shape

B. they are best―known in America

C. they have many ways of containing water

D. some of them can be very tiny

68. The passage gives us an impression that ___ .

A. the desert plants are shaped in a way as if them were designed by somebody on purpose

B. more water is needed in desert so that more desert plants can grow there

C. more lands will be turned into desert if we do not try harder to save water in our daily life

D. the cacti are the most famous desert plants in America

3、  If there is any single factor that makes for success in living, it is the ability to profit by defeat. Every success I know have achieved because the person was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his next undertaking. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are doomed (注定) indeed to failure. For it isn’t defeat that makes you fail: it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.

  Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are routine incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you face it without humiliation, analyze(分析) it and leave why you have failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to cure its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed. If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will hold more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended. It is the same reaction as should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you exploit the power which defeats give, you can accomplish with it far more than you are capable of.

 

60. The person who is able to analyze his defeat is likely ___ .

A. to be more capable of doing things

B. to be a successor

C. to be ashamed of his defeat

D. to know himself better

61. Defeat is valuable because ___ .

A. it makes you a better thinker

B. it forces you to face it without humiliation

C. it provides the guide to achievement.

D. It enables you to analyze events successfully

62. It is implied in the passage that ___ .

A. the author thinks there is only one factor which makes for success in living

B. defeat necessarily leads to success

C. people often confuse defeat with failure

D. we must face defeat courageously

63. What is the author’s attitude towards defeat?

A. One of being ashamed.

B. One of being interested.

C. One of being discouraged.

D. One of being hopeful.

64. The word “humiliation” (in Para. 2) could best be replaced by which of the following?

A. being encouraged.                                    B. being confused

C. being ashamed                                         D. being defeated

2、  George has stolen some money. The police had caught him and he had been put in prison. Now his trial was about to begin, and he felt sure that he would be found guilty and sent to prison for a long time.

  Then he discovered that an old friend of his was one of the jury at his trial. Of course, he didn’t tell anybody, but he managed to see his friend secretly one day. He said to him, “Jim, I know that the jury will find me guilty of having stolen the money. I cannot hope to be found not guilty of taking it―that would be too much to expect. But I should be grateful to you for the rest of my life if you could persuade the other members of the jury to add a strong recommendation for mercy(從輕量刑 )to their statement that they consider me guilty. ”

  “Well, George,” answered Jim, “I shall certainly try to do what I can for you as an old friend, but of course I cannot promise anything. The other eleven people on the jury look terribly strong―minded to me. ”

  George said that he would quite understand if Jim was not able to do anything for him, and thanked him warmly for agreeing to help.

  The trial went on, and at last the time came for the jury to decide whether George was guilty or not. It took them five hours, but in the end they found George guilty, with a strong recommendation for mercy.

  Of course, George was very pleased, but he didn’t have a chance to see Jim for some time after the trial. At last, however, Jim visited him in prison, and George thanked him warmly and asked him how he had managed to persuade the other members of the jury to recommendation mercy.

  “Well, George,” Jim answered, as I thought, those eleven men were very difficult to persuade, but I managed it in the end by tiring them out. Do you know, those fools had all wanted to find you not guilty!”

 

56. Which phrase best defines a “jury”?

A. A person who works in a court.

B. A policeman.

57. According to the passage George wanted his friend Jim ___ .
