I learned to play the guitar at 11 and I wrote my first song four years later. My dream was to become a country singer. After years of hard work, a record company was showing interest in me. One day during a trip to mountains, a friend offered me a bit of meth, a kind of drugs(毒品). I smoked it. And that was all that I thought about for the next year and a half. I couldnt live without it. When the police came to me, I looked like death. The first seven days in prison, I just slept. When I woke up on the eighth day, I had never known such shame and guilt(罪恶感). I walked down the hall to the pay phone. My mama is the sweetest person on the earth, and I knew this was going to break her heart. When I heard her voice on the phone, I told her where I was. She just said, “Son, dont you know you cant do anything to make me not love you?” Her words gave me the confidence to face my trouble. And I also realized this was my chance to start a new life. When people hear my words, I hope they will not make the same mistake as I have, but I do know that you can overcome almost anything, especially smoking drug. Thats why I share my story here. 51.

BFat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for 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 up 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 an instructor at Ridgways school of adventure（冒险） 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（冻伤）, ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his sled up and over the rocky mountains.

At least you are no longer a child. They call you “young lady”. You then enjoy the pleasure of being a young lady. You are proud of being a grown-up teenager. People welcome you - this young lady - heartily. You are glad that your wish has been answered.But there is always something that troubles you a lot. You say, “Papa and Mama, give me some money please. My pocket money is all gone already.”“No”, they say, “Your age is a dangerous age. If you have too much money to spend, it wont do you any good.” Then you have to stay at home because you dare not go out with an empty pocket.Another time you tell your grandma, “Grandma, see, I am a grown-up now.”“Good, now, you can sit here and knit (编织) this for me while I go and have a rest.” To show that you are no more a child, you have to sit there the whole afternoon doing the work, which only a grown-up can do. After an hour, you find it hard to do, and give the knitting basket back to your grandma. Your grandma criticizes (批评) your work. You hear what she says, “Such a big girl cant do such easy work.” You wish then you were a child again.But the fact is, you are growing up, and you cant help it. Thats the way it goes! 52.

AReading is a good habit, but the problem is theres too much to read these days and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are especially good. Preview if its long and hard. Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and business reports. Heres how to preview. Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully. Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs. Previewing doesnt give you all the details. It keeps you from spending time on things you dont really want or need or read. Skim if its short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading like popular magazines or the sports and entertainment of your daily paper. Heres how to skim. Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line. Pick up only a few key words in each line. Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but well get a similar idea of what its all about. 48. How many skills does the writer introduce to help us in reading? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 49. What should you do if you read a long article according to the writer? A. Read every word of it. B. Read all the details.C. Pick up a few key words in each line.D. Read the first and the last two paragraphs carefully.50. If you read a simple article, which reading skill is better to get the general idea? A. Previewing. B. Skimming. C. Reading. D. Sweeping. B“Teenager” means a person from 13 to 19 years old. Although theyre young, they have to make many important choices by themselves. Often teachers and parents cannot handle them because they dont understand and know teenagers, especially their wishes, problems or different moods in a short time. They need to think about questions like these: Should we go to college? What kind of job do I want? However, other people also influence their choices. Who influences teenagers?It depends on the kind of choice. When teenagers buy things, friends are the most important influence. This is especially true for clothes and music. TV shows, advertisements and parents also influence teenagers. In more serious things, parents are probably the most important influence. Some teenagers say its best to regard both parents and friends as influences. James, a seventeen-year-old boy says hes “just a crazy man”. He also says, “Parents are really important because they can tell you whats right and wrong.”But teenagers also feel they need to make choicesto make their own mistakes. As one teenager girl said, “If our parents dont let us make our own choices, maybe in the future we dont know how to do it.” And they feel friends can often be a big help, especially because friends sometimes know more about their situation than their parents. 51. Why do teenagers sometimes have to make their own choices? A. Because the teachers want them to do it. B. Because their parents want them to do it. C.
