The new coach, however, took all the fun out of the game: All we did during practice was 42 . I always wished to God that it would rain so we would not have the 43 . Of course, all teams run drills; they are 44 . But we ran so much that, afterwards, we had trouble 45 . Younger people shouldnt be doing exercises 46 for 18-year-olds.

A large part human history is connected with the exploration of the world in which we live. Again and again people have set out with surprising courage and patience to look into unknown regions and lands to see what had not yet been seen, to make known the unknown. With kites, balloons and aircraft they left the ground to pass through the lower atmosphere. Now the outer space receives their attention.Why should man take the trouble of conquering space? It is hard to list the specific practical benefits that will result in. But one knows, from past experience in other areas, that man will surely see and discover new things in space that will increase our scientific knowledge, and this new knowledge will find its way into valuable practical uses. What we learn about man himself , from his experience in space, and from the effects of space and the space flight environment on him, will be extremely valuable. The new techniques developed to carry out the exploration of space, and to keep man alive in space, will certainly find practical uses in everyday life in some way. The areas that will benefit are manifold. They include communication, generation of power, transportation and travel, food production, materials, fuels and many others. But to say definitely just what the practical results will be is almost impossible.56. The main idea of the first paragraph is that _. A. man desires to explore what is unknown B. man often goes wherever his dreams go C. man is no longer interested in the study of the land and sea now D. mans history is the exploration of the world57.

A. that are obtained from experience B. that can be learned as knowledge C. that can be made use of D. helping us make further explorationBThe college entrance exam is not only a big challenge for Chinese high school students, but also a very important exam in the lives of South Korean students.Although the long, cold winter has already started in South Korea, the national exams have made the atmosphere very heated.More than 675,000 South Korean high school graduates took the college entrance exam last Wednesday. They usually take exams in Korean, maths, sociology (社会学), history and foreign languages.Officially there is one college place for every 1.33 students. But because all the students want to go to the top universities in the country, the competition can reach one place for 10 students.Because students face fierce competition, they have to study very hard to realize their dreams. They often go to school before 7:30 a.m. After school has finished at 6:30 p.m., most of them go to the library to continue their study instead of returning home. Many of the Senior 3 students only sleep for three to four hours a day.The exam day is a very serious day for the whole of South Korea. Vehicles are not allowed within a 200-meter radius (范围) of all the test places to make sure the students have quiet surroundings.Students are told their scores in December before they apply for (填报志愿) college. This is followed by face-to-face oral tests. There are public and private universities. Many private universities are well-known, but their fees can be 18,000 yuan each term. This has made a lot of students think again.60. According to the officials, about B students may be accepted into universities this year.A. 675,000 B. 507,518 C. 67,500 D. 18,00061.

CThe gray-haired lady cant wait to leave the building to search for her dad .Unless watched ,she will walk in the streets in an effort to find her father ,who died 30years ago.Not all cases of Alzheimers disease look like this ,but Alzheimers is a serious disease that is said to be the fourth or fifth leading cause of death for people over age 75.It is said that about three percent of the U.S. population over age 65 have Alzheimers .In the early stages ,people may exhibit short term memory loss. Some may experience changes in personality , easy to be angry .As the disease progresses ,patients might lose the ability to move and may be unable to speak or move at all. This progressive disease generally lasts 8 to 10 years before death occurs.While no one is certain what causes these changes in the brains nerve fibers （神经纤维）,their effect is certain .Alzheimers destroys not only the patients ,but also spouses（配偶）,friends and families.What should you do if you notice progressive memory loss in yourself or a loved one? Have the person examined by a doctor who is a specialist in the treatment of Alzheimers disease. Though many reasons other than Alzheimers disease may cause memory loss ,its early diagnosis（诊断）and treatment may delay some of the most serious effects.What feeling will you likely experience should a loved one suffer from Alzheimers disease ?A person will often go through the various stages of sadness ,shock ,anger ,and so on .If the spouse develops the disease ,you may experience hurt and disappointment when he or she doesnt remember you are married.Life for the Alzheimers patients and their loved ones will never be the same as the disease progresses ,bringing a deep sorrow ,loss and even anger towards God .No matter what feelings are present ,facing them honestly will serve one better than burying them.64.What can be inferred from the passage about the gray-haired day?A. She has been living with her father.B. She was sad about the death of her father.C. She cant search for her father without being watched.D. She suffers from Alzheimers disease.65.

Some scientists believe that some day one-man submarines will be as many as automobiles(汽车), “One day soon, men will walk on the ocean floor as they do on the street!” Perhaps during your lifetime people will travel, work and live in the sea. If human beings want to live in the ocean, many human problems will need to be studied first. Some of these problem, similar to those of living in outer space, are pressure, lack of oxygen(氧气) and weightlessness. Many questions are still unanswered. For example, can our blood make itself fit for underwater surroundings? What will happen to our muscle if we live in the water very long? Scientists are looking for answers. Perhaps in the future man will live in the sea, away from the crowded and noisy cities on land. Then sea has plenty of space, not only for floating living buildings and parks, but also for storing supplies and for underwater travel . Some scientists believe that ocean living will benefit man in more than physical ways. In the freedom and beauty of the deep sea, man may find new sources of joy.68.
