AGrowing up in Philadelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his stay-at-home dad when he was seven. His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local specialties （地方特色菜）in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handed frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named Campus Cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like making drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network.Food Network producer Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television.

Believing my career was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it—the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believe in myself. I am not saying that it isn’t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn’t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”Karen PickeringSwimming World Champion“I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success—you can’t follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the d ay, however small they are, and you’ll be a step closer to achieving them.”Kirsten BestPoet & Writer“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve something. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘calm’, ‘peace’ or ‘focus’, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control andincreases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological tool.”5. What does Sir Steven Redgrave mainly talk about?A. Difficulties influenced his careerB. Specialists offered him medical advice.C. Training helped him defeat his disease.D. He overcame the shadow of illness to win.6. What does Karen Pickering put on top of her diary?A. Her achievementsB. Her daily happeningsC. Her training scheduleD. Her sports career7. What does the underlined word “distractions” proba bly refer to?A. Ways that help one to focus.B. Activities that turn one’s attention away.C. Words that help one to feel less tense.D. Habits that make it hard for one to relax.8. According to the passage, what do the three people have in common?A. Hard work.B. DevotionC. CourageD.Self-confidenceC Here is an astonishing and significant fact：Mental work alone can't make us tire. It sounds absurd. But a few years ago，scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (疲劳). To the amazement of these scientists，they discovered that blood passing through the brain，when it is active，shows no fatigue at all!If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins at and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned，it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brain is totally tireless.So what makes us tired? Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional attitudes.One of England’s most outstanding scientists，J.A.Hadfield，says，“The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin. In fact，fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.”Dr.Brill，a famous American scientist, goes even further，He declares，“One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due toemotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored，anger, anxiety，tenseness，worry，a feeling of not being appreciated—those are the emotions that tire sitting workers.Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.9. What surprised the scientists a few years ago?A. Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer's blood.B. Albert Einstein didn’t feel worn after a day’s work.C. The brain could work for many hours without fatigue.D. A mental worker's blood was filled with fatigue toxins.10. According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?A. Challenging mental workB. Unpleasant emotionsC. Endless tasksD. Physical labor.11. What's the author's attitude towards the scientists' idea?A. He agrees with them.B. He doubts them.C. He argues against them.D. He hesitates to accept them.DControlling traffic is a complex and high cost problem in many developed countries. It becomes more difficult and costly with the ever-increasing number of cars on the roads. But scientists and students at the CATT, at the University of Maryland are working to solve this problem. They are using simulation(模拟) technologies to help government and private business control and react to changing traffic conditions.The online economics magazine says traffic congestion(拥挤) cost Americans $ 124 billion in 2014 and that number could rise to $ 186 billion by 2030.But scientists at the CATT lab are trying to reduce those costs. They are developing a system that helps traffic managers, planners, emergency workers and businesses plan and react better. Michael Pack is CATT director. He says the system is important to help emergency workers, or first responders. reach an accident area faster.The CATT Lab collects information from many sources, including roadside devices, GPS (global positioning system) equipment and wireless phones.About 60 students and 30 software developers observe traffic flow and manage the computer servers at all times. They also work todevelop software and applications that can help traffic run smoother and safer, Some of them turn the information gathered into so-called "visualizations". These visual representations help emergency workers better understand what is happening.The center shares its findings with firefighters, police. Transportation departments and the military. They also share information with universities and transportation company.The technology company Google uses the data for its traffic-related websites. Michael Pack says, the information is then shared with anyone who wants to help traffic run more smoothly.Mr. Pack says the goal is to help develop an intelligent system of road signals that will communicate with each other and with vehicles on the road.12. The second paragraph is written toA. attract more people to look through .B.tell readers what says on its websiteC. show how much money controlling costs AmericaD. prove it is very expensive for some developed countries to control traffic 13. What benefit can emergency workers get from the system developed by the CATT lab?A. They can be safer.B. They can reach an accident area faster.C. They can get more advice from people.D. They can share their information with others.14. Which of the following is NOT true about the developers and the students at the CATT?A. They observe traffic flow continuously.B. They develop software and applications.C. They control the computer servers occasionally.D. They change the information gathered into visual image.15.In which column of the newspaper can you read this text?A. Dailylife. B.Science. cation. D.Exploration第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分。
