About an hour later, 23 , she felt the bus changed the direction across the highway. The children 24 . K
11、ings first thought was about the 25 , and she turned around and said, “Guys, its fine. Calm down.” Then, the bus seemed to have resumed (恢复) course. 26 when she turned to the driver, she saw him 27 forward in his seat. Meanwhile the bus rushed, uncontrolled, down the road at 70 miles an hour. She ju

Leaning over the driver, she put one hand on the wheel and she pulled the wheel back to the right. 30 , the bus didnt react so smoothly. It moved
13、 from side to side. King kept her balance, but the bus was 31 her control. It was really 32 . In all the chaos (混乱), a voice in Kings head told her, “Youd better find something to hang on to.” She grabbed a pole as 33 as she could. Just then the bus turned over, 34 children out of their seats and do
14、wn the aisle (过道) and sending King through the front window. The bus slid through the grass on its roof for several yards 35 finally coming to rest, and the 36 children began climbing their way out through the broken windows. 37 , none of the children were killed. King was immediately sent to the ho

19、 active in arts and science, unwilling to retire. “Those who stand still, die,” says Oliveira, the Portuguese film director. He knows from experience what it means, as he has reached 102 and is still active in his profession. Every year, Oliveira produces a film and is currently working on his next
20、project. “You have to work, work, work in order to forget that death is not far away,” he said. When asked about his age, Oliveira said modestly: “Mother nature(自然母亲) gave me what it took from others.” Being mentally and physically fit in old age is partly a matter of luck, but it also has something
21、 to do with character. Not every white-haired person is wise. Social skills, openness and the ability to train the brain are vital for senior citizens. Along with the architect Niemeyer (103), Nobel Prize winner Montalcini (101) and director Maetzig (100), Oliveira is one of those who are fit and ac
22、tive. It would be very wrong to think of them as members of a sickly elderly generation. Another master in his profession is the architect Niemeyer. The 103-year-old Brazilian is best known for his fantastic buildings in Brasilia, but he also speaks out on behalf of the poor. “The role of the archit
23、ect is to struggle for a better world where we can develop a form of architecture that serves everyone and not just a rich few,” said Niemeyer recently. He spends almost every day working in his office in Copacabana, and even when he falls ill he keeps working on ideas: After an operation he compose
24、d a music tune in the clinic. Another man who could sing a song about age is 107-year-old Heesters. The Dutch-born opera singer spent most of his life performing in Germany, where he still works. Recently Heesters said: “I want to be at least 108 years old.” He also plans to keep performing. “Should
25、 I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up?” Heesters has not given up trying to add to his awards and is looking for a “good stage role”. Italian scientist Montalcini,who is 101 years old and is still active in medical science,has described the force that keeps driving her on: “Pro
26、gress is created through imperfection.” In 1986 she and her lab colleague were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine for their work on nerve growth factor. Shes convinced that humans grow on challenges. Ages no problem to some high achievers. The past also has many examples of elderly people who stay
27、ed very active into old age. 41. From the first two paragraphs, we can see _.A. being active at 102 is possible for everybody B. Oliveiras mother helps him to live a long life C. being fit in old age is a matter of luck and characterD. social skills and wisdom are difficult for old people42. How man

By saying “Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up?”, Heesters shows us he _.A. wants to sit or l
29、ie in comfortB. is waiting for people to pick him upC. is willing to work till he diesD. prefers to give performance at home 45. The best title for this passage may be “_”.A. The Older, the Wiser Youll Be B. Progress, Created Through ImperfectionC. How to Live to Be a CentenarianD. Age No Problem to
30、 Some High AchieversB Dogs can bring joy and companionship into our lives. Coming home to a wagging tail and an eager smile creates a feeling of love and happiness. In fact, having a pet can reduce stress, lower blood pressure and relieve depression. Here are tips for handling, training, and owning
31、dogs. Choosing the right dog for you. Here you can see we have a German Shepherd (牧羊犬), a Boxer (拳师犬), and an English Bulldog. A Shepherd is a guarding dog; the Boxer is more of a working dog; A Bulldog likes to hang out, which is kind of a couch potato, if youre a laid back person and dont want to
32、run down the beach with a dog, the perfect dog is a Bulldog. Approaching an unfamiliar dog. The first thing about approaching an unfamiliar dog, is that if youre going to reach your hands towards the dog, you need to do it from underneath, so your hand is not given to the dog in a threatening manner
33、, which can be interpreted as being hit. You let them smell you first. When they smell you, dont flinch (畏缩), or take a sudden move, because you can scare the dog, and get bitten. Youre to show your friendly side to the dog. Pet food. The first thing about buying pet food is whats the right type of
34、food for your dog. Usually cheap pet foods are not good for dogs, they tend to have more health problems throughout their life. So starting on a healthy food is important. Look for food with no fillers, and no artificial flavors, or dyes. When feeding them, its good to give them a metal bowl. A lot
35、of times the plastic bowls can cause anger to their mouth. Exercising your dog. Walking is always a great form of exercise, good for you, great for dogs. And swimming is another great form of exercise for you too. And sometimes what you should do is get on the bicycle, and let them get a good run on
36、, and that allows you to maintain your position as leader in front of them. Exercising them also keeps them from getting into bored behaviors like chewing and digging and that sort of thing. Biting dog. If you have a biting dog, the best thing to do, along with a firm no, is trying not to be emotion
37、al about it. Just be firm. Give it a little pop beneath the chin (下巴) to close its mouth, and itll remember the result. You can trap it into putting its mouth on you. And then make it close the jaw, creating that pop sound, which it doesnt like. 46. A bulldog may be good as a _.A. hunterB. guardC. w
38、orkerD. companion 47.

40、dden shut C The U.S. government, which played as “the world judge of human rights,” made attacks on the human rights situation in almost 200 countries and regions again in its newly-issued Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2013. However, the U.S. carefully avoided mentioning its own huma
41、n rights problems. In fact, there were still serious human rights problems in the U.S in 2013, with the situation in many fields deteriorating.The number of violent crimes has risen sharply. The U.S. listed 1,214,464 violent crimes in 2012, of which 14,827 are murders, 84,376 rapes, 354,522 robberie
42、s and 760,739 serious violent attacks. The U.S. government took freedom in monitoring (监控) its citizens, which shocked the world. Edward Snowden, a former CIA employee, disclosed a monitoring program carried out by the U.S. government. Under the program, the government rudely tracked citizens privat
43、e emails, chats, audio and video data, documents and photos, identifying their locations, their traveling companions, and other personal information. The U.S. citizens economic rights are still under challenge. Unemployment rates are high in the US. In 2007, nearly 80% people aged 25 to 54 in the U.
44、S. had a job. In 2013, only about 76% people in that age group were working. Wealth gap in the US is widening. More than 47 million U.S. people living in poverty in 2012, and the poverty rate reached 15%. About 6.4 million people aged 65 and older were poor. The current gap between Americas rich and
45、 poor is the widest in history from 2012 all the way back to 1913. The richest 10 percents share of total income was 50.4% in 2012. According to a survey carried out in 2012, at least 136 African-Americans were killed by policemen or security guards in the year. A latest report said that despite the
46、 fact that drug use was about the same for both black and white Americans, blacks were four times as likely as whites to be arrested for drug possession. Some mainstream media, social organizations and politicians declare racist comments. On October 16, 2013, American Broadcasting Companys Jimmy Kim

52、ng victims of violence D Forty years ago, I was an instructor in the military (军事) school, when young Scoresby was given his first examination. I felt extremely sorry for him. Everybody answered the questions intelligently, while he didnt know anything. He was a nice, pleasant young man. It was pain
53、ful to see him stand there giving stupid answers.I knew when examined again he would be thrown out. So I tested him and worked him like a slave. I made him work over and over again on a few questions which I knew he would be asked. He came through very well on the day of the examination. By some str

I decided to make his end as painless as possible. So, I pushed facts into his stupid head for hours. Finally, I let him go to the examination
55、to experience what I was sure would be his dismissal (开除) from school. But the result shocked me out of my mind. He took first prize! And he got the highest praise. I felt guilty what I was doing was not right. But I only wanted to make his dismissal less painful for him. I never dreamed it would le
56、ad to such strange, laughable results.Then, the war broke out. I felt sad for him that there had to be a war. Peace would have given this donkey a chance to escape from being found out so stupid.

57、country for this. I must go with him and protect the nation against him. So, I joined up with him. And away we went to the field.And there oh, it was terrible.

58、 continual fear was that every mistake he made increased his glory and fame.He continued to climb up, over the dead bodies of his superiors (上级). Then, in the hottest moment of one battle down went our colonel (上校). My heart jumped into my mouth, for Scoresby took his place. The battle grew hotter.
59、The English troops were falling back all over the field. Our regiment (团) occupied an extremely important position. One mistake now would bring total disaster. What did Scoresby do? He just mistook his left hand for his right hand. An order came for him to fall back and support our right. Instead, h
60、e moved forward and went over the hill to the left. We were over the hill before this mad movement could be discovered and stopped. And what did we find? A large Russian army waiting! And what happened? Were we all killed? That is exactly what would have happened in ninety-nine cases out of a hundre
61、d. But no those surprised Russians thought we must be the whole British army, instead of only one regiment. They turned and escaped. Away they went over the hill and down into the field in wild disorder. We ran after them. In no time, there was the greatest turn-around ever seen. The British turned
62、defeat into a sweeping and shining victory. The commander looked on, with wonder, surprise and joy. He sent for Scoresby, and hugged him on the field in front of all the armies.

The followings are her descriptions about it:61._ The most common activity I use Facebook for is to see what people are up to
69、. I like to look through friends photo albums to see where theyve been and who theyre with. Its also a nice way to message friends casually.

70、ted, everyone in my age wanted to be on it. The first version didnt have any of the fancy thingswe could just message, play poke and befriend. It was too flat.
