The 36 was swimming and started with only three men. For one reason or another, two of them had a 37 start, so they were disqualified. That would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to 38 against.I watched the man 39 off the blocks and knew immediately that something was wrong. Now Im not an expert 40 but I do know a good dive 41 a poor one, and this was not exactly medal 42 . I listened to the crowd begin to 43 this poor man that was clearly having a 44 time. Finally he made his turn to start back. It was 45 he made a few desperate(拼命的) stroke(划水) and you could tell he was exhausted.But in those few 46 strokes, the crowd had changed. No longer were they laughing, but beginning to 47 . Some even began to 48 things like, “Come on, you can do it!” and he 49 finished his race. The crowd went 50 . Even though he recorded one of the 51 times in Olympic history, this man gave more heart than any of the other 52 .In a competition where athletes remove their silver medals, feeling they have 53 been cheated out of gold, or when they act so 54 in front of their competitors, it is nice to watch an underdog(败者), a man that gave his all - knowing that he had no chance, but competed because of his 55 and the spirit of the games.36.

He was just able to make out the heavier masses that eventually appeared as the familiar trees that lined the road at the base of the hill. The upper reaches of the sky showed lighter shades of gray.Dave got out of bed quietly and dressed quickly. He mixed a spoonful of instant chocolate into a glass of cold water, and his impatience forced him to finish the drink in gulps.As he walked down toward the lake, Dave paused to reach for the fishing pole and gear box on the bench where he had left them the night before.By the time he reached the small boat, a thick white mist (雾气) had spread over the surface of the water. He stepped into the boat, sat down, and rowed out of the weed beds that lined the edge of the shore.The outer fringe（边缘）of the lake disappeared as the boat moved forward noiselessly. All he could see was the enveloping whiteness. He could not tell where the boat and the surrounding air met the surface of the lake.Dave rowed steadily ahead, relying on a mental picture of the surroundings. Then the mist began to rise, slowly. It soon rested inches above the still surface of the lake. The heavy silence was now being broken by the fish breaking through the surface as they leaped out of the water for low-flying insects.The magic time had arrived. Dave raised his pole. Dawn was broken. He was excited with expectancy.56. Dave got up early in the morning to _. A. enjoy the scene of the lakeB. seek adventure at the lake C. go fishing in the lakeD. take a walk by the lake57. According to the story, which of the following is TRUE?A.

D. the Europe-wide student competition will be held on Dec. 15, 2017CThere were times it was only schoolchildren who felt sick before they got their grades. But now teachers in Germany are scared, too, as they are being graded by their students. Many teachers are opposed to it. They dont mind being evaluated(评价). But they are upset because the results are then being posted on the Internet and accessible to millions of Internet users. On the website www.spickmich.de during the past four months students have posted evaluation of 100,000 teachers. The teachers are graded on categories such as “motivated”, “good instruction”, “easy examinations”, or even “sexy”. Many teachers think that their privacy has been violated. The creators of the website say that the students are only being offered the chance to provide teachers with some feedback about their classroom instruction. Bernd Dicks, who founded the website with three friends, says that the students are largely quite satisfied with their teachers. On a grading scale of one to six, the teachers average grade is 2.7 and it has been improving lately. He often says the impression is that students are bullying（威吓） their teachers. But there is also bullying of the students by teachers. “Teachers must also learn to live with criticism,” he added. But still, the website is not totally immune from manipulation(操纵), as one teacher near the northern city of Hanover recently proved. He registered himself on the website as a student and then rated his own teaching colleagues highly. Within a few days, seven of his colleagues were listed in the top 10 ranking of Germanys best teachers.64. Many teachers are opposed to the website because_. A. their privacy has been violatedB. they are afraid of being assessed C. their evaluations are unfairD. the results are not satisfying65. We can infer that the founder of the website intended to _. A. get the students to know their teachers better B. conduct a survey on teachers performance C. help the teachers to improve their teaching D. change the teachers ways of giving instructions66. From what the teacher in Hanover did, we can infer _. A. he intended to help his colleagueB. there was some disadvantage of the websiteC. his colleagues were more popular than himD. he wanted to know how he was evaluatedD Zoo elephants dont live as long as those in the wild, according to a study sure to cause debate about keeping the giant animals on display. Researchers compared the life spans of elephants in European zoos with those living in Amboseli National Park in Kenya and others working on a timber enterprise in Buma. Animals in the wild or in natural working conditions had life expectancies twice than or more of their relatives in zoos. Animal care activists have urged in recent years to discourage keeping elephants in zoos, largely because of the lack of space and small numbers of animals that can be kept in a group. The researchers found that the median life span for African elephants in European zoos was 16.9 years, compared with 56 years for elephants who died of natural causes in Kenyas Amboseli Park. Adding in those elephants killed by people in Africa lowered the median life expectancy there to 35.9 years. For the more endangered Asian elephants, the median life span in European zoos was 18.9 years, compared with 41.7 years for those working in the Burma Timber Enterprise. Median means half died younger than that age and half lived longer. There is some good news, though. The life expectancies of zoo elephants have improved in recent years, suggesting an improvement in their care and raising, but “Protecting elephants in Africa and Asia is far more successful than protecting them in Western zoos.” There are about 1,200 elephants in zoos, half in Europe, researchers concentrated on female elephants, which make up 80 percent of the zoo population. One amazing thing was that Asian elephants born in zoos had shorter life spans that those brought to the zoos from the wild. Zoos usually lack large areas that elephants are used to in the wild, and that zoo animals often are alone or with one or two other unrelated animals, while in the wild they tend to live in related groups of 8 to 12 animals. In Asian elephants, baby death rates are two to three times higher in zoos than in the Burmese logging camps, and then, in adulthood, zoo-born animals die young. People are not sure why.67. What is argued about in this passage? A. Zoo elephants dont live as long as those in the wild. B. Elephants should not be on display. C. Asian elephants are in danger. D. Asia is far more successful in protecting elephants in zoos.68. What does the underlined word “median” mean according to the passage? A. Average B. Longest. C. Shortest.D. Ordinary.69. Which of the following is Not the disadvantage of keeping elephants in zoos? A. Limited number of relatives.B. Lack of space. C. Shorter life expectancy.D. Less attention.70. Who are expected to pay more attention to the issue addressed? A. Zoologists. B. Animal care activists.C. Zoo visitors.D. The public.第二节（共5小题；每小
