I was never 37 to work on cars or be around 38 . When I was 18, I took the US Armys Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!Six years later, 39 , I was at California University, working on my doctors degree.

And it wasnt just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You cant do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true. 49 , if we dont treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 50 we choose. 31.

Every year at this time, the downtown streets become crowded with people. But these are not just regular pedestrians. In addition to the people walking through the streets, there are hundreds of dogs. It is time for the Iditarodthe famous dogsled race of Alaska.The name of the race comes from the name of an Alaska gold rush town, Iditarod. It means “distant” or “distant place.” It comes from one of the languages of native Alaskans.More than sixty sled teams begin the race in Anchorage. When the teams reach the outskirts of town, they get a taste of Alaskas wilderness. For about two weeks, they will ght the unbearable cold, wind, snow, and ice to nish the race. The temperature on the trail is often well below zero degrees.The Iditarod trail stretches for about a thousand miles. It has many rendezvous points. At these meeting places, race teams “check in” to let ofcials know how they are doing. Some teams get into trouble along the way. Ofcials will stop them on the trail and give them the help they need. For example, ofcials might stop a teams progress to give rst aid or to collect an injured or tired dog. These dogs are cared for and reunited with their owners after the race.The Iditarod trail is an important part of Alaskas history. A part of the trail was used by some heroic dogs and humans in 1925. In Nome, Alaska, many people were catching the deadly disease diphtheria. The whole town was in quarantine, or isolation, in order to stop this disease. The only way to get medicine to Nome was by dogsled. About twenty “mushers,” or dogsled drivers, offered to help. They wanted to save the people of Nome from this terrible trouble. Today the Iditarod race honors this heroic journey and all of the journeys on the famous trail. As the race organizers say, the Iditarod is “the last great race on Earth.”51.Which of the following is TRUE about the Iditarod race?A. It is held every year in the downtown streets in Anchorage.B. It usually lasts about two weeks in freezing cold weather.C. It is held to honor the gold seekers who once lived in Iditarod.D.

Over the past nine years, Street Kids International (S.K.I.) has been working with partner organisations in Africa, Latin America and India to support the economic lives of street children. The purpose of this paper is to share some of the lessons S.K.I. and our partner organizations have learned.BackgroundTypically, children end up on the streets not due to a single cause, but to a combination of factors: a lack of adequately funded schools, the demand for income at home and so on. The street may be attractive to children as a place to find adventurous play and money. However, it is also a place where some children are exposed, with little or no protection, to exploitative employment, urban crime.Street Business PartnershipsS.K.I. has worked with partner organisations in Latin America, Africa and India to develop innovative opportunities for street children to earn income.The S.K.I. Bicycle Courler Service first started in the Sudan. Participants in this enterprise were supplied with bicycles, which they used to deliver parcels and messages, but they were required to pay for it gradually from their wages.The Youth Skills Enterprise initiative in Zambia is a joint program with the Red Cross Society. Street Youths are supported to start their own small business through business training, life skills training and access to credit.Lessons learnedThe following lessons have emerged from the programs that S.K.I. and partner organisations have created.It is critical for all loans to be linked to training programs that include the development of basic business and life skills. Small loans are provided initially for purchasing fixed assets such as bicycles, shoe shining kits.All S.K.I. programs have charged interest on the loans, primarily to get the business runners used to the concept of paying interest on borrowed money. Generally the rates have been modest. ConclusionThere is a need to recognize the importance of access to credit for poor young people seeking to fulfill economic needs.55. The organization, S.K.I., aims to _. A. provide schools and social support for street childrenB. give business training and loans to street children C. share the lessons S.K.I learned to help street children D. draw the attention of the government to street children56. According to the passage, what is the most probable reason why children end up living on the street? A. Unemployment. B. Adventurous play. C. Urban crimes. D. Poverty.57. This passage implies that with the help of S.K.I street children may _. A. reject paid employment B. leave their families C. set up their own business D. employ other childrenCThe coast of the State of Maine is one of the most irregular in the world. A straight line running from the southernmost coastal city to the northernmost coastal city would measure about 225 miles. If you followed the coastline between these points, you would travel more than ten times as far. This irregularity is the result of what is called a drowned coastline. The term comes from the glacial（冰川的）activity of the Ice Age. At that time, the whole area that is now Maine was part of a mountain range that towered above the sea. As the glacier descended, however, it applied enormous force on those mountains, and they sank into the sea. As the mountains sank, ocean water charged over the lowest parts of the remaining land. And the highest parts of the former mountain range, nearest the shore, remained as islands. Marine fossils found here are 225 feet above sea level indicating the level of the shoreline prior to the glacier. The 2,500-mile-long rocky and jagged coastline of Maine keeps watch over nearly 2,000 islands. Many of these islands are tiny and uninhabited, but many are home to blooming communities. Mt. Desert Island is one of the largest, most beautiful of the Maine coast islands left behind by the glacier. Measuring 16 miles by 12 miles, Mt. Desert was very nearly formed as two distinct islands. It is split almost in half by Somes Sound, a very deep and very narrow stretch of water seven miles long. For years, Mt. Desert Island, particularly its major settlement, Bar Harbor, has afforded summer homes for the wealthy. Recently, though, Bar Harbor has become a new arts community as well. But the best part of the island is the unspoiled forest land known as Acadia National Park. Since the island sits on the border between two different geographical zones, the park supports the plants and animals of both zones. It also lies in a major bird migration lane and is a resting spot for many birds. The establishment of Acadia National park in 1916 means that this natural monument will be preserved and that it will be available to all people, not just the wealthy. Visitors to Acadia may receive nature instruction from the park naturalists as well as enjoy camping, hiking, cycling, and boating. Or they may choose to spend time at the museum learning about the Stone Age inhabitants of the island. 58. The large number of small islands along the coast of Maine is the result of _. A. the drowning of the Maine coastline B. glaciers forcing mountains into the seaC. the irregularity of the Maine coastlineD. ocean waters flooding the mountain range59. From the passage, we learn that _. A. the coastline of Maine is ten times longer after the Ice AgeB. there are more than 2,500 islands along the Maine coastline C. Mt. Desert Island has been broken apart by a 7-mile-long water stretchD. an arts community gave way to the summer homes on Mt. Desert Island 60. What CANNOT be inferred about the Acadia Nation Park? A. It welcomes all the people, rich or poor.B. It has much appeal for bird-watching lovers. C. It offers visitors both entertainment and education. D. It is a border between the two geographical zones.61. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The past and the present of Maine B. The formation of Maine coastline C. Efforts for preserving national parksD. Tourist attractions on Mt. Desert IslandDThe Cathedral of Augsburg in the Bavarian region of German is credited with the worlds oldest stained glass windows from the 12th century.
