on a trip to a zoo, perhaps? if you had attended a winter activity in new york a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. these “polar bears” are people who often meet in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. that day, the air temperature was 3, and the water temperature was a bit higher. the members of the polar bear club at coney island, new york are usually about the age of 60. members must satisfy two requirements. first, they must get along well with everyone else in the group. this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. polar bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from november through february. doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the bodys temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter. the polar bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits(利益，好处) of cold-water swimming. they say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system(循环系统) because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. a person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming. the main benefits of cold-water swimming are probably mental. the polar bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. as one 70-year-old woman says. “when i go into the water, i pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away.” 42. the members of the polar bear club must meet the following requirements except that . a. they must reach the age of 60b. they should be easy to make friends with c. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold monthsd. they must agree to swim outdoors from november through february43. according to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that . a. polar bears are bears swimming in freezing water b. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color bluec. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously highd. cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter44. the polar bears like to swim all the year round, for . a. they can remain youngb. they find it enjoyable and interesting c. they might meet fewer troubles in lifed. they can keep warm in winter easily45. the passage is mainly about . a. the polar bears life in new york b. the requirements of the polar bear clubc. a group of cold-water swimming loversd. doctors ideas about cold-water swimming四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分） 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题纸标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。（每空一词）46. what a mess! i (simple) couldnt believe my eyes.47. he often shares his (sad) and joy with his friends.48. daniel looked sad because he wasnt (invite) to the party49. polluted air and water are (harm) to peoples health.50. the scientist died in his (forty). what a pity! 51. my english teacher always (鼓励) me to speak more english in class.52. all (建议) are welcome. please give them to us at anytime.53. he went to moscow to have (进一步的) study.54. when the film ended, the audience couldnt stop (鼓掌) for a long time.55. one of the secrets of our success is to believe in .
