Yet, I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didnt do either well. He later informed me that I was not athletic.The idea that I was not athletic stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldnt even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!At mile 3, I passed a sign: GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.By mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a marathon winner.24.Amonthbeforethemarathon,theauthor _.A. madeuphismindtorunB.feltscared C. was welltrainedD.losthope25.WhydidtheauthormentiontheP.E.classinhis7thyear?A.Toacknowledgethesupportofhisteacher.

That sounds like good newsbut do we really need more people to go to university? For that matter, does the world need more universities?The answer feels like it should be yes. Education is good, is it not? But everything has a cost. Education takes time. We could insist that everyone study full-time until the age of 45 but that would surely be too much. And perhaps half the population studying until theyre 21 is also too much. As for universities, they consume financial and intellectual resourcesperhaps those resources might be better spent elsewhere.My own personal opinion is strongly in favor both of going to university, and of simply having universities around. The main skill I learnt at university was to write about economics, and I use that skill every day of my professional life, even an abstract education seems practical to me. And I now live in Oxford, one of the worlds most celebrated (著名的) university cities. Oxfords experience certainly suggests that universities have much to offer. The citys architecture and green spaces have been shapedgreatly for the better, on balance by the 900-year-old institution at its heart. The beauty attracts tourists and locals too.But these are samples of one. Many people do not find themselves using the skills and knowledge they accumulated at university. And Oxfords dreaming spires (尖顶) arent terribly representative of global universities as a whole. 28. Which of the following is the most proper title?A. Does the world need more universities? B. Is education really necessary?C. Is British university system the best? D. Do you prefer universities abroad?29. Which of the following about the writer is TRUE?A. He is an economist now. B. He likes Oxfords architecture and green spaces most.C. The skill he learnt at university is practical in his career.D. He holds the view that going to univeristy is a waste of resources.30. The writer develops the passage by _. A. comparing his experience with others B. persuading us with his own experience and opinion C. describing and sharing his own university experienceD. informing us of the advantages of universities31. In the following part, the writer is likely to _. A. list more supporting details about his opinionB. show more disadvantages about going to universitiesC. present some opposite opinions about universitiesD. draw a conclusion about the topicD More than 10 million Chinese cultural relics have been lost overseas, most of which were stolen and illegally shipped out of China during the times of war before 1949. About 1. 67 million pieces are housed in more than 200 museums in 47 countries, which accounts for 10 percent of all lost Chinese cultural relics, and the rest are in the hands of private collectors. Most of these treasures are owned by museums or private collectors in the United States, Europe, Japan and Southeast Asian countries. There are more than 23,000 pieces in the British Museum, most of which were stolen or bought for pennies more than 100 years ago. The major method to recover these national treasures was to buy them back. In some cases, private collectors donated the relics to the government. Also the government can turn to official channels(渠道) to demand the return of relics. In 2003, a priceless bronze pigs head dating from the Qing Dynasty was returned to its home in Beijing after it was removed by the AngloFrench Allied Army over 140 years ago. Macao entrepreneur(企业家) Stanley Ho donated 6 million yuan to buy it back from a US art collector and then donated it to the Poly Art Museum in Beijing. Although buyingback is the most feasible way to recover the lost treasures, limited funding is always a big headache. In recent years, the Chinese government has improved efforts to recover the precious cultural relics lost overseas. It has started a national project on the recovery of the treasures and has set up a database(数据库) collecting relevantinformation. It has signed several international agreements with many countries on this matter, and is also looking for international cooperation to recover the relics by working closely with several international organizations. 32. What is the passage mainly about? A. How to recover cultural relics. B. The efforts to recover Chinese cultural relics. C. Stanley Ho donated a bronze pigs head to Beijing. D. Chinese cultural relics were stolen by the AngloFrench Allied Army. 33. Most of lost Chinese cultural relics . A. have been recovered by the Chinese government B. were bought for little money by foreigners C. are owned by private collectors D. are housed in foreign museums34. Which of the following statements about the bronze pigs head is NOT true? A. It was made in the Qing Dynasty. B. It is now in the Poly Art Museum in Beijing. C. It was donated by the French government to China. D. It was removed by the AngloFrench Allied Army over 140 years ago. 35. The underlined word feasible in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by . A. possible B. difficult C. popular D. careful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。Everything you do to protect the planet helps all living things, including humpbacks（座头鲸）and other species of whales that live in oceans worldwide.
