battles that he learns an important lesson: there is no “i” in “team”.there is no better example of the value of _37_ than the boston celtics. paul pierce, ray allen and kevin garnett were all superstars on three different teams. _38_, none of them had any titles（头衔） to show for it. then, last season, they decided to play together, caring little _39_ money and fame. garnett and allen _40_ pierce on the celtics and changed the nba in the process.it started in simple ways. garnett and allen are two of the best athletes in the world. they treat every second of every _41_ as it is the nba championship. if you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. therefore, the young guys on the celtics started giving their _42_ effort too. pierce had been the star of the celtics for many years. he used to shoot the ball many times a game. but with the addition of allen and garnett he shot less and _43_ defense（防卫）. his selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that _44_. when the celtics were winning and the game was almost _45_, garnett, pierce and allen would come out of the game. but they wouldnt just sit on the bench. _46_, they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates. they wanted to _47_ their friends and teammates. now, the guys who dont play know they can still affect the game by cheering, so they scream and cheer when garnett, allen and pierce are playing. the celtics have _48_ a strong relationship. they are _49_ just teammates. they are brothers.the result: the boston celtics won the 2008 nba championship and are considered the favorites to win the eastern conference championship again this year. there is a saying that goes, “a successful team beats with one _50_.” if that is the case, the celtics may have the biggest heart in the nba.36. a. whichb. thatc. whend. where37. a. determination b. chancec. teamworkd. advantage38. a. orb. thoughc. andd. yet39. a. ofb. forc. tod.

on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. for two weeks i would try to be a loving husband and father. the idea had come to me as i listened to a talk on my car radio. the speaker was quoting a biblical (圣经的) passage about husbands being thoughtful of their wives. then he went on to say, “love is an act of will. a person can choose to love.” to myself, i had to admit that i had been a selfish husband. well, for two weeks that would change. and it did. right from the moment i kissed evelyn at the door and said, “that new yellow sweater looks great on you.” “oh, tom, you noticed,” she said, surprised and pleased. maybe a little puzzled.after the long drive, i wanted to sit and read. evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. i started to refuse, but then i thought, “evelyns been alone here with kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” we walked on the beach while the children flew the kites.so it went. two weeks of not calling the wall street firm where i am a director; a visit to the shell museum though i usually hate museums. relaxed and happy, thats how the whole vacation passed. i made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love.there was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. evelyn and i still laugh about it today. on the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression. “whats the matter?” i asked her.“tom, ” she said in a voice filled with sadness, “do you know something i dont?” “what do you mean?”“well.that checkup(体检) i had several weeks ago. our doctor . did he tell you something about me? tom, youve been so good to me. am i dying ?”it took a moment for it all to sink in. then i burst out laughing.“no, honey,” i said, wrapping her in my arms. “youre not dying; im just start to live.”51. the writer thought he was a _ husband in the past.a. lovelyb. loyalc. strictd. selfish52. from the story we may infer that tom drove to the beach cottage _.a. with his family b. with evelyn c. aloned. with his children53. the underlined words “one thing” in the text refer to the fact that _.a. he praised her sweater, which puzzled herb. she insisted on visiting a museum, which he hatedc. he knew something about her illness but didnt tell herd. he was so good to her that she thought she must be dyingbmany of us believe that a persons mind becomes less active as he grows older. but this is not true, according to dr jarvik, professor of psychiatry at the university of california. she has studied the mental functioning of aging persons for several years. for example, one of her studies concerns 136 pairs of twins (双胞胎), who were first examined when they were already 60 years old. as dr jarvik continued the study of the twins into their 70s and 80s, their minds did not generally decline (衰弱) as was expected.however, there was some decline in their psycho-motor speed. this means that it took them longer to finish mental tasks than it used to. but when speed was not a factor, they lost very little intellectual (智力的) ability over the years. in general, dr jarviks studies have shown that there is no decline in knowledge or reasoning ability. this is true not only with those in their 30s and 40s, but with those in their 60s and 70s as well.it is true that older people themselves often complain that their memory is not as good as it once was. however, much of what we call “loss of memory” is not that at all. there usually was incomplete learning in the first place. for example, the older person perhaps had trouble hearing, or poor vision, or was trying to learn the new thing at too fast a speed. in the cases where the older persons mind really seems to get worse, it is not necessarily a sign of decline due to old age. often it is simply a sign of a sad emotional state. 54. this passage is mainly about _.a. what caused mental declineb. a new discovery about mental declinec. the difference between middle-aged and older personsd. how dr jarvik studied mental functioning of the twins55. the word “psychiatry” in paragraph 1 most probably means _.a. the study of diseases of the mindb. the study of physical diseasesc. the study of twins growthd. the study of human behavior56. more often than not, what we call mental decline is actually a sign of _.a. a worsening state of health b. old agec. nervous tension d. a state of unhappinesscwugging, or web use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the user. by using e, which is being added to a number of university computers across the uk, students can raise money every time they search, but it wont cost them a penny. research shows that students are extremely passionate(热情的)about supporting charity（慈善）- 88of full time students have used the internet to give to charity. this figure is high because this age group is often the least likely to have their own income. 19 of 22 to 24 year olds have short-term debts of more than5，000. with rising personal debt levels in this age group, due to university tuition fees or personal loans and a lack of long-term savings, traditional methods of donating to charity are often not possible. beth truman, a 21year old recent university graduate has used e to donate to her chosen charity, the rspca, for two years and has seen the “wugging” movement grow in popularity with students. “when youre at university you become more socially aware, but its sometimes hard to give to others when you have little money yourself,” says beth. “wugging is great for people in this age group as it allows them to use the technology on a daily basis to give to charity, without costing them a single penny.” wugging is perfect for people who want to be more socially aware and supportive but dont feel they have the means to do so. students using the web can raise money for causes they care about without costing them anything in terms of time or money, and charities get a valuable source of funding. e works like any other search engine, allowing users to search for information, news and images but users can decide which of the uks 170,000 charities they would like to support through their clicks. e then makes monthly payments to every registered charity. launched in june 2005, e is now the eighth largest search engine and one of the busiest charity websites in the uk.57. according to the passage, “wugging” is actually a_. a. websiteb. charity-related actionc. school organization d. student movement58. how does beth truman think of the “wugging” movement?a. it makes e popular in the uk. b. it makes giving to charity easy.c. it results in students being more social awareness.d. it stresses the importance of charity in peoples daily lives.59. from the passage, we can conclude that _. a. most full time students contribute to charity on the internet every day b. e helps students pay for the college education c. “wugging” is a win-win idea for both students and charities d. e is the most successful search engine in the uk60. what would be the best title for this passage? a. “wugging”, a new popular term（术语）on the internet b. british people show strong interest in charity c. more britain charities benefit from the internet d. students raise money for charity by “wugging”第二节：阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项(a、b、c、d、e和f)中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并答在答题卷上。选项中有一项是多余项。the people below are all looking for
