When he was 12 years old, Jeff had cancer. The doctors had to cut off most of his right leg to save his life. Every day Jeff puts on a man-made leg. The leg is plastic. With the plastic leg, Jeff can ski, ride a bicycle, swim and play soccer. He can also run.When he was 22 years old, Jeff ran across the United States, from the East to the West. He ran 5,150 kilometers. Thats about 26 kilometers each day. Jeff wore out 36 pairs of running shoes and five plastic legs.On his way, in every city people gave Jeff money. The money which Jeff received was not for Jeff himself. It was for the American Cancer Society(协会). The society used the money to learn more about cancer. At the same time, Jeff talked to people about cancer. He also talked about being disabled.Jeff is disabled, but he can do many things: skiing, swimming, playing soccer and running. He finished college and now he is studying to be a lawyer(律师). Jeff says, “People can do anything they want to do. I want people to know that. I ran not only for disabled people but also for everybody.”（1）Why did the doctors cut off most of Jeffs right leg?（2）How many plastic legs did Jeff wear out when he ran across the United States?（3）What did Jeff talk to people about on his way from the East to the West?（4）Did he only run for the disabled people?（5）What can we learn from this story?4. （8分）根据短文内容，选择正确答案。(B)Have you seen Avatar（阿凡达）? Its a popular 3D movie, and you may have to wear 3D glasses to see it. The 3D glasses make the images(图像)from the movie look as if they were coming straight towards you.More and more 3D movies are coming to theaters. Some say that 3D TV sets will come into our homes in the near future. 3D technology can make TV and movies are more exciting. However, people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3D movies. Why?When we look at an object(物体), each eye sees it at a different angle(角度). Our eyes send the two images to our brain(大脑), and the brain puts them together. 3D technology uses two film projectors(投影机). One projects a left-eye-image and the other projects a right-eye-image. 3D glasses allow us to see a different image in each eye. So, when we are watching a 3D movie, our brain cant put together the images sent to our eyes. The brain needs to work harder at “reading” the images. That makes it easier for people with eye problems to get dizzy(头晕的) or have headaches. A famous eye doctor said if your eyes cant focus(聚焦) on the same object at once, you will have trouble watching 3D movies.（1）According to the passage, Avatar is a _.A . digital cameraB . digital TV setC . 3D movieD . 4D movie（2）The 3D glasses can make the images from the movie _.A . look more beautiful than usualB . look as if they were coming straight towards youC . look as if they were far away from youD . look more clear than usual（3）People will have _ in their homes in the near future.A . 3D computersB . 3D phonesC . 3D moviesD . 3D TV sets（4）When we look at an object, _.A . each eye sees the object at the same angleB . our brain puts the two different pictures togetherC . there will be two film projectors in our eyesD . our brain cant put together the images sent to our eyes（5）If you wear a pair of 3D glasses, _.A . you will see different images in both eyesB . your brain cant work at allC . the images can be put together easily by your brainD . our brain can put the images together5. （8分）阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。CYou probably know about Singles Day (Nov.11) in China, when people stay up very late at night to shop online in order to save a lot of money.
