Parents whose children show a special interest in a particular sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children’s careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sports men or women? For many children it means starting school work very young, and going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place. It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing.
Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sports men and women. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development---and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc. can all be very expensive.
Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training young that you can reach the top as a successful sports person. It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.
73.This article is most probably taken from____.
A. a letter
B. an advertisement
C. a personal diary
D. a newspaper article
74.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. By starting young, you won’t have much time for your school work.
B. Early training may damage our muscles.
C. Most children may become professional sports men after a long period of training.
D. It’s very expensive for parents to support their child’s development in sports.
75.The underlined phrase“to take a second place”means“____”.
A. to repeat the activities some other day
B. to become less important
C. of all things considered, they are of inferior(差的)quality
D. to happen again

The Bedouin people think most highly of people who show loyalty. To them loyalty does not mean that one is devoted to a country, a place, or a leader. Loyalty means being faithful to one’s family and tribe(部落).
The Bedouin people take pride in their ancestors(祖先). They do not admire a hero from an ordinary or poor family as much as one who comes from an honored family. They particularly respect those who have received a good name from their ancestors and then have passed it on to their children.
A man’s position among the black-tent people depends upon his ancestors, relatives, and fellow tribesmen. If they are honored, he is also honored. If they are disgraced, he too is disgraced. Therefore one carefully guards the honor of his family, his lineage(血統(tǒng)),and his tribe.
A man can protect his family’s honor by being brave and generous and by giving protection to those who ask for it. He also guards it by carefully watching the women of his family.
A Bedouin woman cannot bring honor to her family, but she can bring disgrace. Even if a woman only looks as if she has done wrong, she may be killed. The honor of her family depends upon her virtue(美德).
64.It can be inferred from the passage that a Bedouin man will feel disgraced if he____.
A. does not succeed in business
B. needs to ask for help from his brothers
C. does nothing when a member of his family is badly treated
D. does not help a stranger who asks for assistance
65.The Bedouin people respect those who____.
A. leave their families to seek success on their own
B. value their families more than anything else
C. become heroes with an ordinary family background
D. are devoted to their country
66.We can learn from this passage that Bedouin women are____.
A. treated as the equals of men
B. listened carefully when they tell their side of a story
C. respected for the many things they do
D. not respected as much as men
67.The word“disgrace”means“____”in this text.
A. honor
B. danger
C. pride
D. shame

Sometimes the real world can be a confusing place. It is not always fair or kind. And in the real world there are not always happy endings. That is why, every once in a while, we like to escape into the world of fantasy(幻想)― a place where things always go our way and there is always a happy ending.
We want to believe in fantastic creatures in imaginary lands. We want to believe in magic powers, good friends, and the power of good to overcome evil. We all fantasize about being able to fly and lift buildings off the ground. And how good a magic sword would feel in our hand as we go off to kill a dragon or win the hand of a beautiful princess.
The amazing adventures of Superman, Peter Pan, and Harry Potter have charmed many people, children and adults alike. The main reason is that these stories offer us chances to get away from this real, frustrating world and allow us to find some magical solutions to our problems. For example, Superman always arrives in the nick of time to prevent a disaster from happening. Peter Pan can fly at will to tease the bad guy Captain Hook, and Harry Potter has his magic power to take revenge(復(fù)仇) on his uncle, aunt and cousin, who always ill-treat him.
61. People enter the world of fantasy for the following reasons EXCEPT that _________.
A. the world of fantasy frightens us
B. the real world is often disappointing
C. we can find happy endings there
D. we can always have our wishes fulfilled
62. Superman, Peter Pan, and Harry Potter have charmed many people, because _________.
A. the bad guys always have the upper hand
B. they end up getting married to beautiful princesses
C. their solutions are anything but magical
D. they possess powers that ordinary people don’t have
63.This article about fantasy literature is intended to __________.
A. criticize its unrealistic concepts
B. ridicule those people reading it
C. explain why people like to read it
D. teach people to avoid disasters

The fact that blind people can see things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us understand our feeling about color. If they sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color without knowing it.
Salesmen have discovered by experience over a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings(包裝), that blue foods are considered not agreeable to the taste, and that cosmetics(化妝品) should never be packed in brown. Their discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology(心理學(xué)). Some of our preferences(偏愛) for colors are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore connected with calm, while yellow is a day color connected with energy and encouragement. Experiments have shown that colors, partly because they are connected with psychology, also have a direct effect on people’s mind. People in bright red surroundings show an increase in breathing speed, heartbeat and blood pressure; red is exciting. Pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Being exciting, red was chosen as the signal for danger, but a close study shows that a bright yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm, so fire engines in some advanced areas are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop buses, trucks and cars.
56. The passage tells us that salesmen have __________.
A. discovered the relationship between color and psychology
B. tried out colors on blind people
C. found out that color affect sales
D. developed a special subject of color psychology
57. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. what color we prefer depends on our state of mind
B. foods sell well in green or blue wrappings
C. blind people cannot sense color difference
D. a bright yellow has exactly the opposite effect to red
58. If people are exposed to(置身于) pure blue, _________.
A. their blood pressure rises
B. they want to taste blue foods
C. they will feel like buying things
D. they won’t easily feel nervous
59. The most effective color in the passage for warning people is _______.
A. red B. dark blue C. bright yellow D. green
60. Which of the following do you think is the best title of the passage?
A. Colors and sales B. Colors and feelings
C. The blind and colors D. Preferences for colors
