from Cuba to Key West Because of the currents in the Florida Straits Nyad would have to last 60 hours if everything went perfectly For two years this dream of swimming from Cuba to Florida had been part of her every waking hour She was about to turn 60 I wanted to be filled with commitment to the best of myself so that I wasn t looking back later saying What have I done with my life says Nyad Those extreme physical struggles are not new to her In 1974 25 year old Nyad became the first person to swim across Lake Ontario against the current A year later Nyad s 28 mile swim around the island of Manhattan made the front page of the New York Times Physically I m stronger I weigh a lot more Nyad said after a training swim 用心 爱心 专心4 in Key West in June There are also mental advantages to being older says Steven Munatones an expert in swimming Feeling a sharp pain in her right shoulder she changed the angle of stroke 划 telling herself to go gently until her hand caught the water In the 17th hour she swam over to the boat and the crew located a pain reliever Nyad took it She lay on her back rolled onto her belly and continued swimming and then she d turn on her back again gasping unable to fill her lungs I m trying to make it I m barely going forward I feel so sick This has been my dream forever but I can hardly make it another hour Nyad told David Marchant the boat s navigator 领航员 Between the 23rd and 27th hours Nyad had gone just five miles OK Diana I m going to touch you and it s going to be over Stoll said Nyad agreed And with that 29 hours and 43 minutes after she d leaped into the water the swim came to an end She just wouldn t quit It was more amazing to see her not make it the way she fought than if everything had gone exactly right and she d made it the whole way says Mark Sollinger who piloted Nyad s lead boat At a press conference in Key West after being pulled onto the support boat Nyad choked back tears and said Sometimes the will is so strong But I was shaking and freezing and I thought There s no mind over matter anymore I think I m going to have to go to my grave without swimming from Cuba to Florida But when Nyad returned home to Los Angeles the pain began to fade Something says to me the goal is still there says Nyad 41 Nyad decided to swim from Cuba to Florida because she A wouldn t swim against the current B wanted to prove she

make it B has given up the dream of swimming across the Florida Straits C appeared on the front page of the New York Times at the age of25 D began the swim from Cuba to Florida when she was about 60

was not sure about Nyad s success 44 Which of the following is the best title for the passage A A Highly Skilled Swimmer B The Unsinkable Diana Nyad C A Regrettable Experience D The Inspiring

You can exchange ideas with others A at the Literature Club s meetingB at the fashion show C at the Initiation CelebrationD at the 2013 Africa trip meeting C C Driving speeds have largely stabilized and nowadays safety concerns are important and reducing road accidents to minimum is a must So automakers are focused on safety systems more than ever before Given the emphasis on improving safety it s possible that well known phrases such as live fast and die young may lose their meaning as innovative 创新 的 new devices are built into cars and trucks and other things that go Many of the new safety systems that are being added to high end vehicles are computer assisted technologies that transfer some of the vehicle s operations to the vehicle itself rather than relying only on the driver s decision making skills For example predictive brake assist is an in vehicle feature that prepares the vehicle for braking when its built in sensors detect a potential object ahead The predictive brake assist basically places the vehicle s braking system on alert which helps the system to slow down the car in as little time and as short a distance as possible Other in vehicle sensors will detect moving and still objects and will even distinguish the objects based on simple patterns such as other vehicles vs a person What s more built in active systems i e predictive precollision 可预 测碰撞 systems will provide drivers with advance detection of potential contact between vehicles These systems compute the relative movement of the objects and detect possible dangerous intersections 交点 What technological developments have enabled innovations like predictive precollision systems Essentially these so called active systems are the 用心 爱心 专心6 result of vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications These communication links allow highways to provide a vehicle s owners with services such as renting a movie during the trip as well as reduce reaction delays when medical care is needed due to a crash Despite these new technologies drivers cannot take safety for granted Until all vehicles are fully automated it is the drivers themselves who are responsible for operating their vehicles and obeying traffic laws designed to keep roadways secure So keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the steering wheel 方向盘 48 Predictive Precollision can be used to A detect possible dangerous crossroads B compute the relative movement of the contacting vehicles C brake the car automatically in as little time as possible D detect potential contacts between vehicles in advance 49 Which of the following statements is NOT true A Advanced safety systems make driving an easier job B Automakers pay more attention to safety system than before C New advanced technology makes the vehicle operation rely only on the vehicle itself D Drivers are still expected to drive carefully despite the built in advanced safety system 50 We can conclude that the new technology will A put an end to road accidents B force people to obey traffic laws C see a wide use in the future D ensure the quality of medical care 51 Which of the following would best serve as the title for the passage A Live fast die youngB New systems safer driving C New technology relaxed drivers D High end vehicles big innovation D D The silent young woman in bed number six is called Jasmine So am I but names are only superficial things floats on the surface of the water and we share deeper connections than that That is why she fascinates me why I spend my off duty time sitting beside her Today is difficult The ward 病房 is full of patients and I am kept busy emptying bed pans filling out forms changing dressings Finally late in the afternoon I get a few moments to make coffee to take it over to the orange plastic chair beside her bed I am thankful to be off my feet glad to be in her company once again Hello Jasmine I say as if greeting myself She does not reply Jasmine never replies She is down too deep She has been sea damaged I too am the daughter of a fisherman so I choose my words like fish hooks cast them into her ears imagine them sinking down through cold dark water Down to wherever she may be I have little time today I tell her touching her hair With Jasmine it is always difficult not to touch She is that rare thing a truly beautiful woman Because of this people invent reasons to walk by I 用心 爱心 专心7 catch them looking drinking her in feeding on her They are barracuda 梭鱼 all of them Great beauty is something Jasmine and I do not share I am glad of it Your father may be here soon I say Last week he said he would come Jasmine says nothing Her left eyelid flickers perhaps It is two months since the incident on her father s fishing boat since she fell overboard sank became entangled in the nets It was some time before anyone noticed then there was panic Her father hauled her back on board and sailed for home When he finally arrived he carried ashore what he thought was his daughter s body Jasmine I whisper I want her to take our baited 用作诱醒的 name I want her to swallow it Fortunately there was a doctor in the village that morning a young man visiting relatives It was he who brought this drowned woman back from the brink he who told me her story She opened her eyes he said looked up at her father and spoke a single word then sank again this time into coma Barracuda That is what Jasmine said When her father visits he touches her hair kisses her cheek sits in the orange plastic chair at the side of her bed and holds her hand Like my own father he has the big brown life roughened hands of a fisherman He too smells of the sea and pretends he is a good simple man Jasmine We share so much we are almost one I remember early mornings my hair touched to wake me my father lifting me half asleep from my bed carrying me dropping me into his boat His voice rough in my ear his hands rough on my skin I never wanted to go but I was just a child He did as he wished I remember salt water hot sun my mother shrinking on the shore I remember the rocking of the boat the screams of the seagulls Jasmine you have a life inside you Can t you hear it calling Nothing The ward door bangs and I see Jasmine s father walking towards us carrying flowers He smiles at me Even in death my own child had my father s smile and Jasmine s will have this man s I know it He stops by her bed and touches her hair Something stirs deep inside me I watch Jasmine s eyelids waiting for her to bite 52 Why does the author show special sympathy for Jasmine A They share the same name B Jasmine looks very fascinating C They have much in common D Jasmine s father is very pitiful 53 From the passage we can learn that Jasmine s father A comes to see his daughter every day B is a good and Simple man in the author s eyes C took his daughter out to the sea against her will D thought his daughter dead when back to the shore 用心 爱心
