Peter Corbett helped Mark Wellman out of his wheelchair and onto the ground. They stood before El Captain, a huge rock almost three-quarters of a mile high in Californias beautiful Yosemite Valley. It had been Marks dream to climb El Capitan as long as he could remember. But how could a person without the use of his legs hope to try to climb it?Mark knew he couldnt finish the climb alone, but his friend Peter, an expert rock climber, would be there to lend a helping hand. He and Mark thought that it would take seven days to reach the top. Peter climbed about 100 feet up and hammered a piton(岩钉)into the rock. Fastening one end of a 165-foot rope to the piton, he let the other end of the rope fall down. Mark caught the rope and fastened it to his belt with a special tool. This tool would allow Mark to move upward, but would stop him from falling even as much as a single inch. He next reached above his head and fastened a T-bar to the rope, using the same kind of tool. Mark took a deep breath, pushed the T-bar up almost as far as his arms could reach, and began the first of the 7,000 pull-ups needed to reach the top. High above, Peter let out a cheer, “ Youre on your way.”Seven years before, at the age of twenty-one, he had fallen while climbing mountain, injuring his back-bone. The fall cost him the use of his legs, but he never lost his love of adventure or his joyful spirit. For the first four days the two men progressed upward without accident. But on the fifth day, a strong hot wind began to blow, and as time went by, it became stronger and stronger, causing Mark to sway violently on his rope. But Mark kept on pushing up the T-bar and pulling himself up. In spite of that, he had to admit that he felt a lot better when the wind finally died down and his body touched rock again. It took them one day more than they had expected, but on July 26 at 1:45 in the afternoon, the crowd of people waiting on the top went wild with joy as the two heads appeared. Mark Wellman showed that if you set your heart and mind on a goal, no wall is too high, no dream impossible.56. What had Mark Wellman long hoped to do? A. To climb El Captain B.

The documentary “March of the Penguins” ( 帝企鹅日记) is one of 12 films showing in Beijing for the 2005 French Film Festival from April 7 to 17. The festival will go on to other cities including Shanghai, Wuhan and Chengdu.The film tells the story of a year in the life of a group of penguins, focsing on one couple in particular. They travel across the Antarctic on their yearly journey from their deep blue ocean to empty Antarctica. They overcome huge difficulties in order to return to their breeding grounds for the mating (交配)season. Their journey sees them cope with all the drama in life: from birth to death from dating(约会)to mating, and from love to fighting for survival. They struggle against meat-eating animals and terrible weather conditions. They protect their babies from other mothers who want to replace their own dead babies. Their struggle has one aim: to carry and bring up their young. While enjoying the excellent photography, there is so much to learn about penguins. On the way to their mating grounds they sometimes walk and sometimes slide(滑行)on their stomachs. They are faithful to their mating partner. Parents share roles of hunting and looking after their baby. They are also sensitive and emotional, capable of loving and crying. It took 13 months to shoot the documentary. “ The emperor penguins demonstrate the most powerful moments of existence,” said the films French director Luc Jacquet. “ Love and solidarity(团结) combine in their heroic struggle for life. “61.

Like a growing number of young women in Vietnams northern part city of Haiphong, Pham Tgu Gye was infected with HIV by her husband, one of the towns many drug users. But instead of being shamed into silence, as Vietnamese with HIV and AIDS are, the 25-year-old tailor and mother of one went public, appearing on television and at conferences. Her business suffered and her neighbors insulted (辱骂)her, but Hue has now become the public face of Mothers and Wives, an HIV/ AIDS support group established in Haiphong by a Norwegian nongovernmental organization and her neighborhoods Peoples Committee. Last year, she founded a smaller group named after a local flower. People who need advice on treatment or help preparing bodies for burial can dial a hot line and get assistance from able and empathetic(同情的)HIV victims. “We gather to support each other,” Hue says. “When we are sick, what we need most is encouragement and comfort from people who understand our situation and are willing to share our happiness, as well as our sadness.”On a hot and damp night last month, Hue welcomed into her small home a very thin woman, also a tailor, who was HIV positive. The woman tearfully told Hue that she had not told anyone about her condition, fearing that she would lose customers and that her daughter would be insulted at school. Hue became the wise elder, offering medical and personal advice. 69. What did Pham Thi Hue do after she was infected with HIV?A. She kept silent B. She worked as usualC. She stayed at home and cried every day. D. She went public and gave help to others.70.It can be inferred from the passage that the group Pham Thi Hue founded is made up of_. A. drug users B. HIV victims C. all kinds of patients D. poor people 71. From the passage we can learn that Pham Thi Hue is a woman who is_. A. weak and kind B. foolish and idle C. brave and helpful D. cautious and energetic E.Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: Suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “ The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted. Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “ She used to cuddle up (蜷伏)with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.” Before age 11, children like to tell their parents whats on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list,” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years,” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.” Parents who know whats going on in their teenagers lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental(精神的)break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them. 72. “The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son_. A. is always busy with his studies B. doesnt want to be disturbed C. keeps himself away from his parents D. begins to dislike his parents73. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that _.A. their daughter isnt as lovely as before B. they cant read their daughters mind exactlyC. they dont know what to say to their daughter D. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help.74. Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends. B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents D. Teenagers talk little about their own lives75. What can be learned from the passage?A. Parents are unhappy with their growing childrenB. Parents have good ways to talk with their teenagers.C. Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.D. Parents should try to unders
