an amazing man, adrian charter. adrian comes to the gym to train, just like me. the difference is, im 31 years old, and adrian is 72! i watched adrian as he was training, early on a sunday morning, and he was hitting the punching bag harder and quicker than most men in their twenties would. adrian was a former boxer whose last professional fight was in 1972. even though he has stopped competing as a boxer, his discipline(纪律) still makes him stick to a training rule. it simply amazed me as to how a 72-year-old man could train so hard. believe me, boxing is one of the most difficult sports on the earth, needing much patience,skill, and effort. what surprised me even more was that a few days earlier he did some running. he ran 9 kilometers. he does this on a regular basis. for me, i can run 5 kilometers at most. when i questioned him about how he kept such discipline, he calmly replied, “it is all in my mind.” i thought about it for a moment. if discipline can push a 72-year-old man to train so hard and enjoy it, could i imagine how discipline could serve every single human being on the earth? right at this point, as you read this story, please pause and ask yourself, “what is my level of discipline?” adrians example told me that the power of discipline will get us to the finishing line! the bigger the challenge is, the more our discipline can serve us and the sweeter the taste of success will be!21.the author noticed adrian charter mostly because adrian charter _ .a. was a famous former boxer b. was the oldest in the boxing gymc. acted faster even than young people d.

at the bottom of the ocean? its the worlds ugliest animal-the blobfish(水滴鱼). its strange skin is shaped by its habitat. it lives 800 meters below the oceans surface, a depth where very few other creatures can survive. most fishes have a swim bladder(鱼鳔), which is filled with gas and helps them stay afloat. at the depth that the blobfish live, water pressure is 80 times higher than that at higher sea levels and any swim bladder wouldnt be able to serve its purpose. the blobfish dont have a swim bladder because their skin works the same way. it helps them stay afloat without having to use any energy. the blobfish have a pretty relaxed attitude towards eating. all they do is stay and wait for crabs or lobsters to come by. since the blobfish like to eat crabs and lobsters, they often get caught in nets that are used to catch lobsters or crabs and end up dying or being killed. they are not suitable for eating so they are useless for fishermen. theres a purpose behind the blobfishs new title; it has become the new mascot for the ugly animal preservation society, an organization whose purpose is to preserve endangered ugly animals. “weve needed an ugly face for endangered ugly animals for a long time and ive been amazed by the public reaction,” said the societys simon watt. “for too long cute animals have taken the limelight(风头) but now the blobfish will be a voice for those who always get forgotten.”they hope this new face will help the world know that we need to help preserve the populations of ugly animals too.28.the biggest difference between the blobfish and

afloat?a. their skin. b. their tail. c. their mouth. d. their swim bladder.30.we can learn from what simon watt said that _ .a. most ugly animals are in danger b. the population of the blobfish is increasingc. the blobfish have attracted the publics attention d. people knew nothing about the blobfish in the past31.what is the purpose of the passage?a. to discuss the importance of preserving animals.b. to give the reason for starting an organization.c. to present the results of a survey. d. to introduce a special animal.【答案】28.b29.a30.c31.d【解析】试题分析：文章主要介绍了世界上最丑的动物水滴鱼。以及动物保护协会把它列为新的吉祥物，目的是让人们保护濒危的丑陋动物。28.b 细节理解题。由第三段at the depth that the blobfish live, water pressure is 80 times higher than that at higher sea levels and any swim bladder wouldnt be able to serve its purpose.可知，由于水滴鱼生活在海底800米处，水压大，特殊的环境使得它们没有鱼鳔。故选b。29.a 细节理解题。由第四段第一句the blobfish don t have a swim bladder because their skin works the same

judge a book by its cover, yet people do “cover” themselves in order to convey (传递)certain messages. what we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances, so do companies. dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept.others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees (雇员),because those people represent the companies to their customers.as a hiring manager i am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. there are plenty of well-qualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. even though i am open-minded, i cant expect all our customers are.there is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. no company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.32.which of the following is the newspaper editors opinion according to paragraph 2?a. peoples appearances carry messages about themselves.b. candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.c. customers choices influence dress standards in companies.d. strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace.33.what can be inferred from the
