They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why？Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains，who crash cars or even catch fire，are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say，they perform tricks.There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example，they fall from a high building. However，they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress(床垫)Again，when they hit one another with chairs，the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows，the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort，it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntmans success depends on careful timing. For example，when he is “blown up” in a battle scene，he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work，but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured，and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman，for example，skied over the edge of a cliff a thousand feet high. His parachute(降落伞) failed to open，and he was killed. In spite of all the risks，this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntwomen too.21Stuntmen are those who _.Aoften dress up as actors Bprefer to lead dangerous livesCoften perform seemingly dangerous action Doften fight each other for their lives22Stuntmen earn their living by _.Aplaying their dirty tricks Bselling their special skillsCjumping out of high windows Djumping from fast moving trains23Which of the following is the main factor of a successful performance?AStrength. BExactness. CSpeed. DCarefulness.24What can be inferred from the authors example of the Norwegian stuntman?ASometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman.BThe percentage of serious accidents is high.CParachutes must be of good quality.DThe cliff is too high.BAlmost no young people today know who the cartoon character Oswald the Rabbit is，but they certainly recognize his successor，Bugs Bunny.Oswald，Bugs，and hundreds of other characters were created by Walt Disney，perhaps the most famous cartoonist in history.Born in Chicago in 1901，Walt Disney always wanted to be an artist. After returning from World War ，in which he drove an ambulance，Disney worked as a mercial artist. He enjoyed drawing cartoons more than anything else，and decided to try his hand at a technology that was new at the time，moving pictures.In the 1920s，he produced several films where he made cartoon characters move as if by magic. The technique Disney used was painstaking. He made hundreds or even thousands of repeated drawings of the same character. In each drawing，the character was changed just a bit. A film was taken of the series of drawings，and when it was shown，the characters appeared to move. The process，called animation，is still used today，although puters have made the process much easier.In 1928，Disney created his most famous character，Mortimer Mouse，who we know today as Mickey. The mouse starred in a cartoon called Steamboat Willie，which was unusual because it involved the use of a sound track. Within the next few years，Disney invented many of his other characters.The list of Disneys animation successes is long and memorable. It includes Pinocchio，Dumbo，Bambi，Cinderella，and Peter Pan. Perhaps his most remarkable animated film is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Created in 1937，it was an immediate success. Today，more than fifty years later，it is still one of the most popular films for children.25What is one of the chief differences between animation today and in Walt Disneys early years?AMore people like animated movies. BFewer people like animated movies.Cputers have made the job easier. Dputers have made the job harder.26 Which of these words best describes Walt Disney?ACreative. BAthletic. CExciting. DQuiet.27 The author of this passage would probably agree that _.AOswald the Rabbit is wellknown today BWalt Disney is a remarkable personCanimation is an easy technique Dcartoons move by magic28 What does the underlined word “painstaking” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?ASomething that hurts because it involves hard work.BTaking a long time and involving much hard work.CRequiring a lot of effort，like running a marathon.DRequiring many fine tools，such as pens and pencils.CIn 1969 I was a young girl working in Toronto. I was from a small town in Ontario and had just moved to the big city about three months earlier. It was one week before Christmas and I was going home on the last streetcar of the evening.I remember looking at my paycheque(工资单) and asking myself how it was going to endure. At that time in my life I hardly had enough money to exist on. Bread for supper and oatmeal for breakfast was the only way I kept hunger at bay.I got off the streetcar and started walking up the street，when I suddenly noticed a man was running after me. I stopped，turned around，seeing that he was black. I snapped，“What do you want？” The man answered in a soft voice，“I am returning your wallet. You left it on the streetcar seat.” Because of that mans thoughtfulness，I was allowed the fort of going home by bus for the summer holidays. Otherwise，I would have stayed alone in my small room with a hog plate.I have never been so ashamed of myself，and that poor，kind man had to walk，who knows how far，home.I recognized immediately that this was wrong of me and it changed my ways forever.29What can we learn from the second paragraph? AThe writer had no job when the story happened.BThe writer was leaving the big city for her hometown.CThe writer had little money when the story happened.DThe writers parents were very poor when she was young.30What does the underlined word “snapped” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? ATo speak in a soft voice. BTo shout angrily.CTo scream for help. DTo whisper.31Why was the black man running after the writer?ATo rob her. BTo scare her.CTo make friends with her. DTo return her wallet.32What is the writer trying to tell her readers? ANever judge people by their appearance. BShe had been struggling to her success.CShe had changed a lot since that night. DBeing kind to strangers will pay back.D“Everybody loves a bargain.” is a wellknown saying. One persons useless，ugly，or broken object can be another persons bargain. That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their house. They put on a “For Sale”sign.And， as simple as that，they have a yard sale.The sellers put a paid announcement in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring，summer，and autumn. Early in the morning，all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlightlike tired guests at a partywaiting for someone to take them home.Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes，there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys，tools，books，tables，and chairs. Then there are objects called “white elephants”A white elephant is something that you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it.To someone else，however，it might be a thing of beauty and joy.Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains，for example，or paintings of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales，however，are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating over prices，even if they really do not need the object.Later，they may hold their own yard sale to sell all the things they have bought.33What kind of things will go to a yard sale?ACheap and ugly things. BThings people no longer use.CThings out of season. DThings of great value.34A white elephant refers to _.Asomething that can cause a feeling of painBsomething disliked by the owners while appreciated by othersCsomething sold at the lowest priceDa toy shaped like a fish35We can infer from the last paragraph that _.Apeople may find something of great value on a yard saleByard sales only attract those who have a low ineCthings on a yard sale can cost people a lotDmost people who go to yard sales want to make money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。 Developing selfconfidence is one of the most important things you can do to create a more powerful，successful life.
