21、ent went beyond any of the achievements of the comic book hero.“He became a real-life Superman. His heroism, his courage was extraordinary,” Colin Blakemore, the chief executive of Britains Medical Research Council said. “Like many people who suffer some terrible injuries, Christopher Reeve was tota

24、He also provided hope and inspiration to other patients and made speeches to support scientists to be allowed to conduct stem cell research in the hopes of eventually curing paralysis and other illnesses such as diabetes and Alzheimers and Parkinsons disease.“He has been our champion. If you think o
25、f spinal injuries, you automatically recall a picture of Christopher Reeve,” said Paul Smith, executive director of the Spinal Injuries Association in England. It is because of Reeve that spinal cord injuries and stem cell research are so widely discussed, according to Smith. The fact that it happen

40、rokes and die than women who eat less potassium-rich foods, according to new research in the American Heart Association. “Previous studies have shown that potassium consumption may lower blood pressure. But whether potassium intake could prevent stroke (中风) or death wasnt clear,” said Smoller, profe
41、ssor of the department of population health at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY.Researchers studied 90,137 women, aged from 50 to 79 for an average 11 years. They looked at how much potassium the women consumed, as well as if they had strokes, including ischemic strokes (缺血性中风), or die
42、d during the study period. Women in the study were stroke-free at the start and their average dietary potassium intake was 2,611 mg/day. Results of this study are based on potassium from food, not supplements.The researchers found: Women who ate the most potassium were 12 percent less likely to suff
43、er stroke in general and 16 percent less likely to suffer an ischemic stroke than women who ate the least. Women who ate the most potassium were 10 percent less likely to die than those who ate the least. Among women who did not have high blood pressure, those who ate the most potassium had a 27 per
44、cent lower ischemic stroke risk and 21 percent reduced risk for all stroke types, compared to women who ate the least potassium in their daily diets. Among women with high blood pressure, those who ate the most potassium had a lower risk of death, but potassium intake did not lower their stroke risk
45、. “Our findings suggest that women need to eat more potassium-rich foods. You wont find high potassium in junk food. Some foods rich in potassium include white and sweet potatoes, bananas and white beans.”The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that women eat at least 4,700 mg of potassium dai
46、ly. “Only 2.8 percent of women in our study met or went beyond this level. The World Health Organizations daily potassium recommendation for women is lower, at 3,510 mg or more. Still, only 16.6 percent of women we studied met or went beyond that,” said Smoller.While increasing potassium intake is p
47、robably a good idea for most elderly women, there are some people who have too much potassium in their blood, which can be dangerous to the heart. “People should check with their doctor about how much potassium they should eat,” she said.The study was observational and included only elderly women. R
48、esearchers also did not takesodium (钠) intake into consideration, so the potential importance of a balance between sodium and potassium is not among the findings. Researchers said more studies are needed to determine whether potassium has the same effects on men and younger people.50. The benefits o
49、f potassium intake to elderly women do not include _.A. preventing strokes B. reducing heart attacksC. cutting down death risks D. lowering blood pressure51. Which of the following figure meets the daily potassium intake recommendation of the World Health Organization?A. 4,000 mgB. 3,500 mgC. 3,000
50、mgD. 2,500 mg52. What conclusion can be drawn from the research findings? A. Increasing potassium is definitely a good idea for all elderly women. B. Elderly women with high blood pressure benefit more from potassium.C. Potassium intake is more beneficial to those without high blood pressure.D. Ther
51、e was not any association between potassium intake and ischemic strokes. 53. It can be learned from the passage that _.A. Results of the research were based on potassium from medicineB. Researchers gave different amounts of potassium to the elderly women C. Elderly women need to keep a balance betwe
52、en sodium and potassium intake D. The effects of potassium intake on men and younger people are not yet known54. The authors purpose for writing this passage is to _.A. present a report on a new researchB. show the importance of a good life styleC. give information about a chemical elementD. encoura
53、ge elderly women to take potassium D“I never did hate the Yankees (北方佬). All that I hated was the war.” Thats how my great-aunt Bettie began her story. I heard it many times as a child, whenever my family visited Aunt Bettie in the old house in Berryville, Virginia. Bettie Van Metre had good reason
54、to hate the Civil War. Her brother was killed at Gettysburg, and her husband, James, a Confederate (南方联盟军) officer, was taken prisoner and sent to an unknown prison camp somewhere.One day in late September, Dick came to Bettie reporting that he had found a wounded Union soldier in a farmhouse half a
55、 mile away from the Van Metre home. When talking about her first sight of the man in the blood-spotted blue uniform, she always used the same words. “It was like walking into a nightmare: those awful bandages, that terrible smell.” She went out into the cool air, trying not to be sick at the thought
56、 of that smashed right hand, that missing left leg.The mans papers Bettie found in the farmhouse showed his identity: Henry Bedell, 30 years old. She knew that she should report the presence of this Union officer to the Confederate army, but she wouldnt. This is how she explained it: “I kept wonderi
57、ng if he had a wife somewhere, hoping, and not knowingjust as I was. It seemed to me that the only thing that mattered was to get her husband back to her.”Slowly, patiently, skillfully, Aunt Bettie fanned the spark of life in Henry Bedell. Of drugs or medicines she had almost none. And she was not w
58、illing to take any from the few supplies at the Confederate hospital. But she did the best she could with what she had.The October nights in the valley grew cold. With the help of Dick and his wife, she moved the Union officer at night, to a hidden room above the warm kitchen of her own home. But th
59、e next day, Bedell had a high fever. Knowing that she must get help, she went to her family doctor, Graham Osborne. Dr. Osborne examined Bedell and said, “there was little hope unless proper medicines could be found.”“Ill get them from the Yankees at Harpers Ferry.” Bettie said. The doctor told her
60、that Harpers Ferry was almost 20 miles away. Even if she reached them, the Yankees would never believe her. “Ill take proof,” Bettie said. She found a blood-spotted paper bearing the official War Department seal (印章). “When I show it, theyll believe me.”Early the next morning she set off with a list
61、 of medical items. For five hours she drove, stopping only to rest her horse. The sun was almost down when she finally stood before the general at Harpers Ferry. The general listened, but did not believe her. “Madam,” he said, “Bedells death was reported to us.” “Hes alive,” Bettie insisted. “But he
62、 wont be much longer unless he has the medicines on that list.” “Well,” the general turned to a junior officer, “see that Mrs. Van Metre gets the supplies.”With the medicines, Bedell gradually recovered. Ten days later he was walking with sticks. “Id better go back as soon as possible.” Bedell told
63、Bettie. So it was arranged that Dick should help Bettie deliver Bedell to Harpers Ferry in his wagon. Bedell lay down in a box filled with hay, his rifle and sticks beside him.At Harpers Ferry, the soldiers were amazed when the Union officer with the missing leg rose from his hay-filled box. Bedell
64、told the story to Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton, who wrote a letter of thanks to Bettie and signed an order to free James Van Metre. It was arranged for Bedell to go with Bettie as she searched for her husband. Records showed that a James Van Metre had been sent to a prison camp in Ohio. Then at
65、 Fort Delaware, near the end of the line of prisoner, a tall man stepped out and walked clumsily into Betties arms. Bettie held him, tears streaming down her face. And Henry Bedell, standing by on his sticks, wept, too. 55. What might be Betties tone when she used the underlined sentence to describe
66、 the first sight of Henry Bedell?A. Pessimistic.B. Desperate.C. Shocked.D. Sympathetic.56. Why wouldnt Bettie report the presence of Bedell to the Confederate army?A. Because she felt it her responsibility to save soldiers of the Union. B. Because she wanted to save Bedell so that her husband could
67、be freed. C. Because Bedell was more a suffering human being than an enemy to Bettie. D. Because Bedell begged Bettie not to give him away to the Confederate army. 57. Dr. Osborn thought it was _ of Bettie Van Metre to drive to Harpers Ferry for the medicines.A. crazy B. kind C. brave D. smart58. St

Prepare for the second timeD. Dont care too
72、 much about the time you spendE. Keep a notebook to take note of important things.F. Forget what others think of you and demand for you.How to Prepare for the First Time at AnythingThe first time for everything is always the most exciting one. Not only is there a lot of excitement loaded in those ev
73、ents, but there is a fear of some sort included. Here are some steps to make you feel better when entering new situations that you feel anxious about.61. _Many people dont really care that much if you happen to fail at something. If you are open about your inexperience, they are most likely to forgi
74、ve your inability to perform well. Remember that others have also started from “zero” as well. You should focus on your own performance not on others. For instance, if youre going to be running in your first marathon ever your goal is just to pass the finish line, not to run a new world record.62. _
75、When you do something for the first time, accept the fact that a mans got a limit. In general, it is useless to strive for perfection when you do something for the first time. You are setting the bar too high and you just feel bad when you are not able to meet the level you have set. Also, perfectio
76、n is just another way to keep leaving things you should do until later, so trying to be perfect is just a waste of time.63. _One common characteristic of doing something for the first time is that it is most likely to be more time-consuming than subsequent(后来的) times. If you are inexperienced, the f
77、irst few times you are just going to be learning anyway and hopefully getting better in the process. Just take your time and try to learn as much as possible as you go. You will realize that the second time is much easier, since you already have some experience in your pocket.64. _ If possible, try
78、to decide in detail what you are going to do and get yourself ready for it as much as possible before doing something new. This way you will gain more self-confidence, and you actually may have a bit more control of things. But you dont always have that sense of control. For instance, if you are goi
79、ng out on a first date, you cannot plan every possible topic to talk about in advance. But if you are going to take a certification test, you can study and prepare so that you can reach a whole different level.65. _ Once you have gone through your “first time experience”, youll have broken the bigge
80、st barrier of all and the next time wont be that scary anymore. To make the next time even a smoother experience, do these two things during your first time: Take notes. It never hurts to write things down as you go. Run through a checklist. Write down a checklist to go through before the actual eve
81、nt. This way you can make sure that all the necessary requirements are met before the actual event begins第卷 (共40分)第三部分:写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)下面短文中有10处语言错误,请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。增加:在缺词处加一个漏词符号(),并在其下面写上该加的词。删除:把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写上修改后的词。注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词; 2. 只允许修改10处,多
