any sports team. “football, tennis, cricket anything with a round ball, i was useless,” he says now with a laugh. but back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in devonshire, england.it was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. at first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. gradually, saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. at the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.the following year, he met john ridgway and started to work as a teacher at ridgways school of adventure in scotland, where he learnt about ridgways cold-water exploits. greatly interested, saunders read all he could about north pole explorers and adventures; he decided that this would be his future.in 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, saunders started his first long-distance expedition (探险) towards the north pole. it took unbelievable energy. he suffered frostbite, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his sled up and over the rocky mountains.saunders has become the youngest person to ski alone to the north pole, and hes skied more of the north pole by himself than any other british man. his old playmates would not believe the change.next october, saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of antarctica to the south pole and back, a 2,900-kilometre journey that has never been completed on skis.21. what change happened to saunders after he was 15 years old?a. he became good at most sports.b. he began to build up his body.c. he joined a sports team.d. he made friends with a runner.22. the underlined word “exploits” (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to _.a. journeysb. researchesc. adventuresd. operations23. which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to saunders?a. he ran his first marathon.b. he skied alone to the north pole.c. he rode his bike in a forest.d. he planned an adventure to the south pole.a. acdbb. cdabc. acbdd. cabdbcyprus(塞浦路斯)has over 320 days of sunshine every year and the temperature seldom drops below 18 even in winter. so if its sunshine holidays you are after, then perhaps you should consider taking your next vacation in cyprus.once you arrive in cyprus you could be forgiven for thinking that you have in fact landed back in the uk because cyprus has often been referred to as england with the sun. most cypriots speak excellent english as a second language and its taught in all the schools even at primary level. they drive on the left and all the road signs are in english as well as greek.there arent many places left in the world where you can leave your doors unlocked or walk down the streets in the dead of night but cyprus is one of them. the island has one of the lowest crime rates in europe which makes it great place to live in.for people who just want to relax, cyprus is the perfect holiday destination. with miles of sandy beaches and delightful bays, you are sure to find somewhere to calm down while you enjoy all that cyprus sun. the island has a rich cultural history, and if you want to see more of cyprus while on your holiday, be sure to check out many trips that are on offer to all those places of interest.however you decide to enjoy your holiday in cyprus and whether its relaxing on the beach or taking in the night life of many bars and restaurants, the island has something for everyone. until you experience cyprus for yourself you can never completely understand why so many holiday makers return to her beautiful shores year after year. in fact some of those visitors have so fallen in love with her that they have bought a house of their own there.enjoy cyprus!24. the purpose of the passage is to_.a. explain why cyprus is so similar to englandb. introduce a perfect holiday destination to readersc. recommend the best season to go to cyprusd. encourage people to travel around the world25. what can we learn about cyprus?a. all the road signs in cyprus are written in greek only.b. the native language of cyprus is english.c. it is hot in summer and cold in winter.d. it is sunny most of the time.26. it can be inferred from the text that _.a. cyprus is a country with good public safetyb. it is expensive to live in a country like cyprusc. cyprus is a small country with a large populationd. the environment in cyprus has been damaged by travelerscyoure rushing to work and a man ahead of you suddenly falls down. do you stop to help? in a study of bystanders(旁观者), it was found that some people look away or keep on walking.“there is a inclination(倾向)to decide that no action is needed,” says ervin staub, a psychologist at the university of massachusetts at amherst, who studies the role of bystanders. “the first thoughts that come into your mind often keep you from offering help.”time and again, good and caring people fail to help others. they know they should act and yet, for reasons they themselves dont understand, people sometimes dont respond. longtime researchers of bystander behavior continue to struggle with the question, “why”?one thing we do know is that the more ambiguous a situation, the less likely people are to help. lets say you see vapor(水汽)coming out of a building. you ask yourself, “is it steam or smoke?” if you are not sure, you look to other people for a clue(提示)about how to react. if you see other people are doing nothing, you think, “of course, thats just steam.” you dont want it to be smoke, because then you would have to do something about it.another one is known as “the bystander effect”. this says that the more people there are watching an emergency, the less responsible each one of them personally feels. for example, if you are the only person in the world who can act to save someone in a dangerous situation, you are more likely to act. however, if you are one of 100,000 people who could save the situation, you would be happier if one of the other 99,999 people did it!“if you notice trouble, force yourself to stop and judge the situation instead of walking on,” says ervin staub.” then try to involve other people; you dont have to take on all the responsibility of being helpful. according to staub, it is sometimes just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying, “it looks like we should do something.” once you take action, most people will follow you.27. according to ervin staub, when accidents happen, peoples first thoughts _.a. force them to lend a handb. prevent them from helpingc. often lead to embarrassmentd. depend on others reaction28. what does the underlined word “ambiguous” in paragraph 4 mean?a. difficult.b. dangerous.c. unclear.d. unpleasant.29. the author uses “the bystander effect” to show that_.a. many people have the same ideasb. more people carry more responsibilityc. people usually think a lot before difficultiesd. people behave in the same way as most others do30. what can be the best title for the text?a. dont just stand thereb. stick to your decisionc. think before you leapd. its the thought that
