im known for my voice. perhaps the greatest honor came when i was asked to read the new testament (新约全书) on tape. but it 36 a long time to believe such good things could happen to me. when i was a child, i stuttered (结巴) so badly that i was completely 37 to speak in public. 38 when i was 14, professor donald crouch came to my school. he was a retired college professor. english was his favorite subject and 39 was his deepest love. he held a book of poems as if it were a crystal (水晶), 40 pages as if uncovering treasures. when he heard that our school was teaching shakespeare and other classics, he felt 41 for not being a part of our school sooner. when he 42 that i not only loved poetry but was 43 it, we became closer. there was, however, one 44 professor crouch could not stand the 45 that i refused to read my poems to the class. jim, poetry is 46 to be read aloud, he said. you should be able to speak those beautiful words. i shook my head and 47 . one day he 48 me. after handing in a poem, i waited for his 49 . it didnt come. instead one day as the students had gathered together, he 50 me, jim, i dont think you wrote this poem.” i stared at him in disbelief. why, i started, 51 flooding me. of course i did! well, then, he said, youve got to prove it by getting up and reciting it from memory. by then the other students had settled at their desks. with knees 52 , i walked up to the front. for a moment i stood there, 53 . then i began, and kept going. i recited my poem all the way 54 ! afterwards, professor crouch encouraged me to read other writers poetry before

office which is about three hundred miles away in another city. after work, he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder, or plays baseball on the computer. on many days, daniel doesnt talk to any other human beings, and he doesnt see any people except the ones on television. daniel is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible. the inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from contact with our fellow human beings. the world of business is one area in which technology is separating us. experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. with access to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their jobs at display terminals (终端) in their own homes. they would never have to actually see the people theyre dealing with. in addition, the way employees are paid will change. workers salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. no workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks. personal banking will change, too. customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts. many companies and consumers have already changed the way they sell or buy products. e-commerce, or business done on the internet, is becoming more and more popular. this, therefore, makes it possible for people to do shopping without going out of their homes. another area that technology is changing is entertainment. music, for example, was once a group experience. people listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. for many people now, however, music is an individual experience. walking along the street or sitting in their living-rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. movie entertainment is changing as well. movies used to be social events. now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or watch online at home. instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living-rooms.56. after work, daniel likes to _ . a. listen to music at the concert hall b. chat with his friends on the netc. watch a movie in his living-room d. play baseball with his workmates57. the underlined sentence daniel is imaginary, but his lifestyle is very possible means _ . a. daniel is a person full of imagination and he can make his life colorful.b. daniel is a model who makes full use of modern technology in life.c. daniel is only an ordinary person but he has his own way of living.d. daniel is not a real person but the lifestyle of his kind does exist.58. what will the writer most probably discuss after the last paragraph?a. personal banking. b. games and sports.c. music and films. d. international business.59. what is the main idea of the passage?a. modem technology seems to be separating human beings.b. we may no longer need to communicate with other peoplec. we will no longer need to deal with business in the office.d. modern technology makes us work and entertain at home.b when did you last see a polar bear (北极熊)? on a trip to a zoo, perhaps? if you had attended a winter activity in new york a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. these polar bears are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. that day, the air temperature was 3c, and the water temperature was a little higher. the members of the polar bear club at coney island, new york are usually about the age of 60. members must satisfy two requirements. first, they must get along well with everyone else in the group; this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. polar bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from november through february. doctors dont agree about the medical effects of cold-winter swimming. some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the bodys temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter. the polar bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of cold-water swimming. they say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system (循环系统) because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. a person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming. the main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental. the polar bears love to swim all year round. they find it fun and relaxing. as one 70-year-old woman says, when i go into water, i pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away.60. which of the following requirements must the members of the polar bear club meet? a. they must reach the age of sixty. b. they dont have to contact with other members. c. they must go swimming both in summer and in winter. d. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in winter months.61. according to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that _ . a. polar bears are bears swimming in freezing water b. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue c. cold-water swimming, causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter d. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high62. why do many polar bears like to swim year-round? a. they find it enjoyable and interesting. b. they can remain young and healthy. c. its an easy way to keep warm in winter. d. they might meet fewer troubles in life.63. the passage is mainly about _ . a. the requirements of the polar bear club b. a group of cold-water-swimming lovers c. the polar bears life in new york d. doctors ideas about cold-water swimmingc speak, speak, speak! practice speaking as often as you can. speaking to yourself is good practice. try recording yourself whenever you can. compare your pronunciation with the master version (原版)to see how you can do better and have another go. if you do this several times, you will find that each time is better than last. why not learn with someone else? it helps if you can learn with someone else. if you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working. dont get stuck by a word you dont know. practice improving ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously (本能地), even if you dont know the exact words or phrases. think of things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to make yourself understood. language learning is also about intuition (直觉). guesswork is an important way to learn a new language. when listening to recorded material, you arent expected to understand everything first time round. if you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time. build up your vocabulary.a wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but dont try to learn too much at once. its best to study frequently, for short periods of time. take at most six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, and then come back to them later. and above all, have fun!64. whats the purpose of this passage? a. to tell us the importance of practicing speaking as often as possible. b. to tell us a few tips to help us learn a new language well. c. to tell us that guesswork is important to learn a new language. d. to tell us that a wide vocabulary is the key to language learning.65. to learn english well, we should not _ according to the passage. a. practice speaking as often as possible b. study frequently, for short periods of time to build up our vocabulary c. try to understand everything and stop when we meet a new word d. try to persuade a friend or family member to study with us66. according to the passage, to learn a new language well, the most important thing is _ . a. speaking as much as possible b. guesswork c. a wide vocabulary d. having fund there are millions of used cell phones in the world
