Thats because he is completely blind.When Derek was born about 24 years ago, he got his name from Derek Ho, the first Hawaiian surfing world champion. A surfing enthusiast himself, Emeslo Rabelo dreamed that his son would share the talent of his uncle, a professional surfer. Unfortunately, Derek was born completely blind, but this didnt stop his family from believing that he could do anything he wanted, even if that meant becoming a surfer.At age 2, Derek received a bodyboard and the beaches of Guarapari, Brazil, became his backyard. He was always comfortable in the water and surfing was in his blood, but he didnt actually try riding a wave until he turned 17, when his father bought him a surfboard. His father taught him the basics and encouraged him to keep practising, but after successfully standing up on the surfboard, Derek knew he needed to become much better if he was going to achieve Emeslos dream and become a professional surfer. So he joined the Praiado Moroo surf school, where he studied under coach Fabio Maru.Standing up on a surfboard and conquering small waves is one thing, while gathering the courage to take on Hawaiis board-breaking Pipeline is another. But that was exactly what Derek Rabelo set out to do just months after learning how to surf. Everyone told him it was too dangerous, but he felt he could do it. And he did, earning the praise of famous professional surfers like Kelly Slater and Mick Fanning. Now 24, Rabelo has been surfing the Pipeline every winter since.24.

Id noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when Id been Alices middle school teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, to what has gone wrong. Yet Im torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth Im not sure this mother is ready to hear.The truth for this parent and so many others is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learningat the altar ofachievement, and its our fault. Alices parents, her teachers, society at largewe are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards. We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect (智力), and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As, championship prizes, and college acceptance, and not on purpose, we taught her that we dont really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that its better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her to fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.28. What can we infer from Paragraph 2 about the author?A. She thinks Alice is right. B. She is uncertain of the answer.C. She hesitates to express her idea. D. She wonders why the mother is worried.29. Which can replace the underlined words “at the altar of”?A. instead of B. at the risk of C. at the loss of D. in the interest of30.What has really made Alice change her attitude in learning?A. Being slow in study. B. Fear of bad grades.C. Difficulties in study. D. Press from the parents.31. What is more important for a teenager in the authors opinion?A. His knowledge. B. His intellect. C. His character. D. His achievement.DThe year 3700, Earth is far too hot for any human to call it home. On this planet at least, man is nothing more than a memoryif there is anything left to remember the “wise man”. But what about our wisdomwill any of it survive us?The conventional answer is no. Knowledge requires a knower, and there will be no knowing minds around then. But if information survives, perhaps in books or hard drives, maybe the knowledge isnt quite dead but dormant (休眠), ready to become alive with the help of other minds that develop over time or come to visit Earth in the distant future.At first sight, that seems to be reasonable: after all, we have done similar things with past knowledge. For example, we saved an ancient computer from a ship destroyed at sea off the southern coast of Greece, and succeeded in finding the meaning of Egyptian hieroglyphics(象形文字). Careful work can bring previously lost wisdom back to life.However, the key point is that there is a certain cultural continuity with those ancient times that allows us to reason and make progress in the dark: we know we are dealing with the legacy (遗赠)of other humans. Without that link, the survival of objects and raw data doesnt guarantee the survival of knowledge. And a lack of continuity in language with any future intelligence would be a barrier. Knowledge is closely connected with language. When a language dies out, we can lose systems of reasoning that they contain. If thats lost, then it cant be recovered.All this means that other minds might not be able to fully make human knowledge alive when we are gone. It is better to concentrate on not dying out in the first place.32. What is the main purpose of Paragraph 1?A. To present an interesting idea. B. To state a problem of the future.C. To inform us of the earth in 3700. D. To introduce the topic of the text.33. What do the words “similar things” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. Developing the minds. B. Remembering the wise man.C. Making lost wisdom alive again. D. Learning from the ancient civilization.34. What plays the key part in getting cultural continuity according to the text?A. Language. B. Intelligence. C. Knowledge. D. Information.35. What can be the best title for the text?A. Can human beings live on?B. Will our wisdom survive us?C. How we can protect our culture D. What the earth will be like in the future第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Four benefits of learning a new languageHas learning a new language been sitting on your to-do list for ages?
