They 46 work at a carnival instead of in a store or something”. “Co me down tomorrow and 47 them yourself,” he said.So the next day I went to the carnival and to the exhibit he had 48 me to.

In addition, she has also competed in ten World Championships, three Asian Games and three Goodwill Games. Chusovitina holds the record for the most individual World Championships medals on a single event. She won an Olympic team gold medal as a 17-year-old in 1992. Since then she has won a record of eight world titles.Her long career owes something to fate. In 2002, when her son Alisher, now aged nine, was diagnosed with leukemia(白血病), she moved to Germany so that he could get the best possible treatment. To help in those difficult times she kept up her training. It has paid off. But saving Alisher’s life is not her only motivation. As she recently told German media, “There is nothing in the world I enjoy more than gymnastics.”Chusovitina was born on June 19, 1975 in Uzbek USSR. She was formerly a citizen of, and a competitor for, the former Soviet Union (before 1993) and Uzbekistan (1993-2006). She has competed for Germany since 2006. By the year of 2008, Chusovitina’s career in gymnastics had been twenty years.She is one of only a handful of women to return to high-level gymnastics and international competition after becoming a mother. Chusovitina is remarkable in her ability to remain competitive for so many years, often in the face of great difficulty, and has been considered as a role model and an inspiration by many people in the gymnastics community.56. When she was 17 years old, Chusovitina won an Olympic team gold medal for ________.A. the former Soviet UnionB. UzbekistanC. GermanyD. Russia57. Chusovitina might begin her career in gymnastics in _______.A. 1975B. 1988C. 1992D. 199258. Chusovitina left her homeland because _______.A. she wanted to compete in the Beijing 2008 Olympic GamesB. she wanted to serve for GermanyC. she wanted her son to get the best treatmentD. she had to face great difficulty in her homeland59. According to the passage, Chusovitina is different from the other competitors in the Beijing2008 Olympic Games because_______.A. she is the best competitor in the gamesB. she is much older than other gymnastics girlsC. she won an Olympic team gold medal when she was very youngD. she competes in order to earn money60. According to the passage, which of the following words can best describe Chusovitina?A. Kind-hearted.B. Lovable.C. Tough-minded.D. Serious-minded.CA small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That's the finding of an extensive study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed(吃) at least an ounce of salt water fish per day than those who never ate fish.The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific backing to the long-held belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States, with more than 550, 000 deaths occurring from heart attacks each year. But researchers previously have noticed that the incidence (发生率)of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.During the last two decades, 78% of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.61. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The Dutch research has proved that eating fish can help to prevent heart disease.B. There is a low incidence of heart disease in countries like Japan and Greenland.C. Among all the diseases heart disease is the most dangerous in America.D. Heart doctors won’t call your house so long as you keep eating fish each day.62. The underlined phrase “this relationship” refers to the conne ction between _______ and theincidence of heart disease.A. the amount of fish eatenB. regular fish-eatingC. the kind of fish eatenD. people of different regions63. The passage is mainly about ________.A. the high incidence of heart disease in some countriesB. the changes in people’s diet in the United StatesC. the daily fish consumption of people in different culturesD. the effect of fish-eating regularly on people’s health64. Why is heart disease the most dangerous killer in the United States?A. The author doesn’t give a definite answer.B. Because American people drink too much spirits.C. Because there are a great number of fat people there.D. Because American people eat too much fatty fish.65. How many lives could probably be saved each year in the United States by eating fishaccording to the Dutch study?A. 550, 000.B. 110,000.C. 275,000.D. 852.DThe United States has about 475,000 school buses ---all painted yellow. Each day they carry more than 25,000,000 children, half of all schoolchildren in the country. But these buses, on average, use four liters of diesel (柴油) fuel to travel less than sixteen kilometers. When the school year began last fall, diesel averaged 55 cents a liter nationally. The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.Bob Riley speaks for the American School Bus Council. He says fuel prices for schools are not much lower than others have to pay. As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs. Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled (取消). Some areas are buying buses that use natural gas or other alternative fuels. Other steps include fewer field trips and less travel by sports teams. And some school districts (地区) may end any bus service not required by law.Studies show that school buses are the safest form of transportation to and from school. The American School Bus Council says cuts in bus service are bad for children and possibly the environment. It says removing buses from the road will mean an increase in other vehicles transporting students. Spokesman Bob Riley says another concern is that reducing bus services might reduce attendance.But it could also get more children to walk or bicycle to school. And that would surely make people happy at the National Center for Safe Routes to School. More kids walking or biking safely to school is the aim of a three-year-old federal program, part of an international movement. The goal is to increase physical activity and reduce air pollution. The United States will celebrate Walk to School Day on October eighth this year. But for some students, high fuel prices could make every day a walk-to-school day.66. What does this passage mainly tell us?A. High fuel prices’ influences on sc hool buses.B. New measures to transport school students.C. The safest form of student transportation.D. The origin of Walk to School Day.67. Which of the following information is implied in the first paragraph?A. There are too many school buses in the United States.B. There are too many students in the US.C. Diesel prices are going up too rapidly in the US.D. School buses consume too much diesel in the US.68. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Cuts in bus service will have negative results.B. The US government is encouraging cuts in bus services.C. The US schools are searching for the safest transportation means.D. Reducing bus service will do a lot of good to the environment.69. In order to cut down transportation cost, many schools take the following measures EXCEPT_____.A. changing some bus routesB. stopping some bus routesC. asking parents to drive children to and from schoolD. using other types of fuels70. The National Center for Safe Routes to School encourages more children to walk or bike toschool in order to ____.A. save more fuels and diesel for the countryB. keep the children safe on their way to schoolC. make the children live a simple lifeD. keep the children healthy and the environment clean第II卷（共55分）第四部分：单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）71.有人提醒我不要忘了我的承诺。
