When the ancient Games of the Olympiad were born, wrestling was already an ancient game. Widely recognized as the world’s oldest competitive sport, wrestling appeared in a series of Egyptian wall paintings as early as 5,000 years ago. When the ancient Olympic Games began in 776 BC, more than two thousand years later , it included wrestling and in the years that followed, wrestling featured as the main event. The sport would return in a similar role when the Olympic Games returned after a 1,500-year absence in 1896. Organizers, seeking direct links to ancient times, found wrestling was very popular across much of the ancient world, fromGreece, Assyria and Babylon to India, China and Japan. Greco-Roman wrestling, a style which was believed to be passed down from the Greek and Roman wrestlers of old was brought back into use. In Greco-Roman wrestling, the wrestlers used only their arms and upper bodies to attack. They could hold only those same parts of their opponents (对手). It worked nicely from a historical attitude, but another cheerful and relaxing style was sweeping across Great Britain and the United States by then. Known as “catch as catch can”, it had become popular at fairs and festivals in both countries.In 1904, the Olympic Games added the second wrestling event and called it Now, “freestyle”. Now, wrestlers wrestlers could use their legs for pushing, lifting and tripping, and they could hold opponents above or below the waist. 59.

Why was Greco-Roman wrestling brought back into use in 1896 when the Olympic Games returned? A. Organizers wanted to find direct links to ancient times. B. Wrestling was very popular across much of the ancient world. C. People believed it was passed down from the Greek and Roman wrestlers of old.D.

She almost couldn’t see anything and was, at one time, locked in a dark underground room of a mental institution (精神病院) because of mental problems. Little Annie Sullivan would attack anyone who came near sometimes. However , an elderly nurse believed there was hope and she offered to help the child. Every day she made all her efforts to give little Annie words of love and encouragement. At last, doctors noticed a change in the girl. They ever saw anger and hostility (敌意) in her eyes, while now they noted a little gentleness and love. They moved her upstairs where she continued to become better . Then the day finally came when this seemingly “hopeless” child was released.Anne Sullivan grew into a young woman with a desire to help others as she, herself, was helped by the kind nurse. It was she who saw hope in Helen Keller . She loved her , , played with her until the flickering candle became a bright light to the world. Anne Sullivan brought wonders into Helen’s life. But without that kind and warm-hearted nurse, how could little Annie become such a kind-hearted teacher? And so it goes. Just how far back does the chain of love extend?

Some doctors now think that the internal fat surrounding important organs like the heart or liver (肝脏) could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily.“Being thin doesn’t surely mean you’re not fat,” said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College. Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat. According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits (储存) of internal fat, even if they are slim. Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside. Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. Among men,the percentage was nearly 60 percent. According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. They eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere. Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes. They want to prove that internal fat damages the body’s communication systems.The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “If you want to be healthy, there is no short cut. Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyl e,” Bell said. 68. What is this piece of news mainly about? A. Thin people may be fat inside. B. Internal fat is of no importance. C. Internal fat leads to many diseases. D. Thin people also have troubles. 69. Doctors have found _______. A. the exact dangers of internal fat B. internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetesC. being slim is not dangerous at allD. being slim doesn’t mean you are not fat inside 70. According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG? A. Exercise can help to reduce the internal fat. B. People can get rid of internal fat by improving diet. C. Men are more likely to have too much internal fat. D. People with heart disease all have internal fat. 71. From the last paragraph, we can find that . A. whether internal fat can lead to disease has been proved B. exercise plays an important role in people’s life for keeping healthy C. thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slim D. it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat 72. The underlined part in the last paragraph means . A. a long road B .

Many parents are opposed Mayor to Mayor Michael Michael R. Bloomberg ’s ban on cellphones in schools by e -mail messages. Skip to next paragraphThere was a 13-year-old student who was shot with a gun after school, unable to call his mother for help. There was a high school student robbed three times last year , twice in her school building. There was a girl who got a piece of glass placed in her eye during school and was saved from a possible cornea transplant (角膜移植) only because, having disobeyed the cellphone ban, she was able to call her mother and get an operation on time.The ban has been on for years, but it set off a widespread parental outcry only in April, after some headmasters sent home letters reminding parents that cellphones are not allowed to be brought into school. Mr Bloomberg has defended the ban, s aying saying that cellphones are bad andoften used to cheat or call in friends for fights. If something is important, he says, parents can call schools directly. On the other hand, many of the e-mail messages from parents described the ban as “cruel and heartless”, “absurdly wrong wrong--headed”, “anti “anti--parent”, “ridiculous”. “We respect the fears have,” that parents have,” Dav Dav David id Cantor Cantor, a , a spokesman spokesman for Schools Minister Joel I. Klein said, “but after all the fact is that hav ing phones in schools always leads to more problems.” 73.
