They were surrounded by streams and lakes full of hungry fish. They got
37、 excited about fishing! Someone said that they needed a philosophy of fishing, so they carefully defined and redefined fishing and the purpose of fishing. They developed fishing skills. Then they realized that they had been going at it backwards. They had approached fishing from the point of view of
38、 the fisherman, and not from the point of view of the fish. How did fish view the world? What did fish eat and when? These were all good things to know. So they began research on fishing and attended conferences on fishing. Some traveled to faraway places to study different kinds of fish with differ
39、ent habits. But no one had yet gone fishing. With meetings, conferences, and seminars (研讨会), they just simply didnt have time to fish. Jake was a newcomer to The Fishermans Fellowship. After the meeting of the Fellowship, Jake went fishing. He tried a few things, got the hang of it, and caught a big
40、 fish. At the next meeting, he told his story, and he was honored for his catch, and then scheduled to speak at all the meetings and tell how he did it. Because of all the speaking invitations and his election to the board of directors of The Fishermans Fellowship, Jake no longer had time to go fish
41、ing.But soon he began to feel restless and empty. He longed to fish once again. So he cut the speaking, he resigned from the board, and he said to a friend, “Lets go fishing.” They did. They caught a lot of fish.The members of The Fishermans Fellowship were many, and the fish were plentiful, but fis
42、herman were few.59. The purpose of the text is to_. A. encourage people to put what they have learned into practice. B. prove that there are many people who dont know how to fish. C. invite more people to join The Fishermans Fellowship. D. show the importance of learning right fishing methods.60. We

C. practice was ignored by the members of The Fishermans Fellowship. D. The Fishermans Fellowship divided work among
44、its members well.61.

Why was Jake honored by t
45、he group at a meeting? A. He was brave enough to go fishing alone. B. He was successful in doing practical work. C. He had better fishing skills than other fishermen. D. He knew more about fishing than other fishermen. C The power of words becomes clear after listening to a powerful speech that leav
46、es you feeling inspired, or when a moving passage from a novel brings tears to your eyes. But when it comes to causing pain, the power of words may still be vastly underestimated (低估). Kids who are always laughed at and called names can develop low self-respect and may grow up to be angry adults. “H
47、urtful words can haunt (萦绕) you all your life and may lead to heart disease, depression, stress,” said W. Penn Handwerker, a medical anthropologist. Not surprisingly, those that have the most effect are words that come from people we admire or who have some power over our lives : teachers, wives/ hu
48、sbands, parents and friends.Studies have found verbal assaults (攻击) are even more painful than physical ones. “A bruise can eventually disappear, but words can hurt your soul. Words create fear and contain the promise of future violence. The emotional effect on victims can range from low-level anxie
49、ty to great fear,” said Stephen Wessler, director of the Center for the Study and Prevention of Hate Violence at the University of Southern Maine.It is estimated that 160,000 students miss school every day because theyre afraid of being harassed (骚扰).Whats more, name calling and other forms of rude
50、remarks are early signs of actual violence in schools. Wessler, who worked as a prosecutor (检察官),explained that when he was called into schools for cases of violence, it was typically the last stage of a much longer battle. “The violence had actually begun days or months after verbal harassment,” he
51、 said.63. Whats the main idea of the text? A. Verbal assaults are more likely to happen in schools. B. Verbal assaults are more painful than physical ones. C. Kids are usually much easier to be hurt by words. D. More and more people like to give verbal assaults.64. We can infer from the first two pa
52、ragraphs that_. A. fewer and fewer powerful speeches are given now B. the effects of words are different on different people C. the power of words can also be negative D. few people pay attention to what others say65. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Verbal assaults are often not paid e
53、arly enough attention to in schools. B. Students often try to end the violence in school by themselves first. C. Verbal assaults cause most of the violent cases in schools. D. More and more prosecutors are paying attention to verbal assaults.66. Why is the number of students who miss school every da
54、y mentioned in the text? A. To show the relationship between verbal assaults and physical assaults. B. To provide evidence of the harmful effects of verbal assaults on students. C. To tell those who often miss school that their behavior is wrong. D. To point out what a prosecutor can do to stop verb
55、al assaults in schools. D Young women are more adventurous than young men when travelling abroad in gap yearsOne in three female backpackers visits more than three countries during a year out and travels alone, according to new researchBy contrast, the majority of their male counterparts visit only
56、one country and tend to travel in groups, says a survey by the Gap Year company, which provides information and services for students considering taking a year outMore women than men say that their prime reason for taking time off is to see the world and experience different culturesMen are more lik
57、ely to rank “having fun” higher on their list of prioritiesWomen are more likely to value the challenge of a foreign trip, and many cited reasons such as learning a language and meeting new peopleThe more adventurous gap years taken by women seem to work to their benefit; more than three quarters of
58、 those surveyed have reported increased confidence, self reliance and independence, whereas only half of the men had that experienceThe research also shows that women are more likely to do voluntary work while travelling, with more than one in ten helping with teaching or development projectsOne of
59、the reasons given for this is a wish to see the country in an authentic lightA greater proportion of women than men face objections or criticism from their families over their gap year plansAmong the men surveyed, lack of money is the main barrier to travelCarolyn Martin, a doctor from London, is a
60、typically confident female travellerStarting in Cape Town, she travelled around southern Africa and Australia with a string of unusual and sometimes dangerous jobs“I had one job chasing elephants off the runway in Africa by banging a stick against a pan，” she recalled“It was OK but one day I did get
61、 chased by one”She said that she had travelled alone because “you meet more people”67According to the article, _Amost of the women students will travel abroad during the summer holidaysBone third of the women students will travel abroad in a yearCwomen students are more likely to travel abroad alone
