She competed in track-and-field(田径) events in the 1960s Olympics. She didnt win just one gold medal(奖章). She won three. At the time, people called her “the fastest woman in the world”.Actually, as a young child, Wilma could not take part in sports. She had serious illnesses, and then, at the age of 4, she got polio(小儿麻痹症). She lost the function of her left leg, and the doctor said she could never walk again.Wilmas family did everything they could to help her walk again. Wilma and her mother used to travel 100 miles to get treatments for her leg. Her brothers and sisters took turns to give her leg a daily massage(按摩). Four times a day, they helped her do special exercises for her leg. Amazingly, by the time Wilma was 9 years old, she was able to walk again. Before long, she started playing basketball and running. In high school, she was a track star and then she went to the Olympics.Wilma stopped being a runner when she was 22 years old. She then became a teacher and a track coach.

Birds can fly easily because they are light, but mens bodies are heavier.Men first went up into the air in balloons. These were big bags, and they were filled with gas. Hydrogen(氢气) is a useful gas for balloons. It is lighter than air. Helium is also lighter than air, but it costs a lot of money. So balloons are usually filled with hydrogen.Balloons have to fly with the wind as they have no engines(发动机) to drive them. Later, men made airships. They are balloons with engines. They are also filled with hydrogen.Aircrafts(飞机) with wings now take people across the world. Powerful engines drive these machines across the sky. Some of the engines are like the engines of cars, but they are more powerful.There is another kind of engine, we call it the jet(喷射) engine. An English engineer invented the jet engine. At the same time, Germans were also building a jet engine. In May 1941, the English engineers new engine was fixed in an aircraft, and the aircraft flew quite well.Jet engines are very powerful. Usually two to four are enough for an airplane, but some big aircraft need six. Anyone in a moving jet plane can feel the power of the engines. Jet planes can travel faster than sound. As a flying jet plane leaves its noise behind, we do not hear it until it has gone.53. The underlined word “Helium” in the second paragraph is mostly like a kind of _.A. bag B. airplane C. gas D. balloon54. We dont hear the flying jet planes noise until it has gone because _.A. jet planes are very powerfulB. jet planes have enough jet enginesC. anyone can feel the power of the enginesD. jet planes travel faster than sound55.

The jet engine is very powerful.D. Two jet engines are enough for a big aircraft.四、阅读填空 先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰的单词。所填单词必须写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。每个空格只能填一个单词。（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）The 2016 Olympic Games will be held in Brazil soon.
