She once was a secretary who never earned more than $ 15,000 a year and never married. She lived alone in a small flat in Ch
21、icago, and was a volunteer at the Childrens Hospital. She was called the “Teddy Bear Lady” because she brought toy animals to sick children on her regular visits. But Miss Holm, who died in 1996 at the age of 86, was also a longtime buyer of stocks (股 票 ). Over the years, she saved money that rose u
22、p to $ 18 million, which she left to the Childrens Hospital. It was the largest single donation in the - 4 -hospitals 115-year history. The hospital president, Jan Jennings, was shocked when she heard the news. “When Miss Holms lawyer called to tell me how much that money was, I asked him to repeat
23、it, since I was certain I had misheard”.Why did Gladys Holm fell so strongly about the Childrens Hospital? Jennings said the hospital first touched Miss Holms heart nearly 50 years ago, when doctors there saved the life of her friends daughter. She never forgot the happiness she felt all those years
24、 ago.Holms gift will be devoted to heart disease research. People at the hospital said they regretted that they couldnt thank Miss Holm for the surprising gift.25.

27、ch on heart disease.C. To help sick children and their parents.D. To buy more toys for sick children.CSuccess comes in all shapes and colours. Whatever success you are after, there is one thing all successful people have in common: Their desire for success makes them never give up.Some of the most s
28、uccessful people in business, entertainment and sport have failed. Many even have failed many times but they have never given up. Successful people are able to pick themselves up, dust themselves off and carry on trying.I have collected some examples:Henry Fordthe pioneer of modern business and the
29、founder of the Ford Motor Companyfailed a number of times on his route to success. His first venture (投 资 ) to build a motor car failed a year and a half after it was started because the stockholders(股 东 ) lost confidence in Henry Ford. Ford was able to gather enough money to start again but a year
30、later pressure from the financiers (金 融 家 ) forced him out of the company again. Despite the fact that the entire motor industry had lost faith in him he managed to find another investor to start the Ford Motor Company and the rest is history. .Walt Disneyone of the greatest business leaders who cre
31、ated the - 5 -global Disney empire of film studios, theme parks and consumer productsdidnt start off successful. Before the great success came a number of failures. Believe it or not, Walt was fired from an early job at the Kansas City Star Newspaper because he was not creative enough! In 1922 he st
32、arted his first company called Laugh-O-Gram. The Kansas based business would produce cartoons and short advertising films. In 1923, the business broke down. Walt didnt give up. He packed up, went to Hollywood and started The Walt Disney Company.They show that if you want to succeed, you should expec
33、t failure along the way. I actually believe that failure can spur you on and make you try even harder. You could argue that every experience of failure increases the hunger for success. The truly successful wont be beaten. They take responsibility for failure, learn from it and start all over from a
34、 stronger position.29. What played the most important role in Fords success?A. Determination to success. B. Experience in managing.C. The money he himself had. D. His friends and their help.30. According to the passage, why did Walt Disneys first company break down?A. Because he didnt have enough mo
35、ney.B. Because his products were not well received.C. The writer didnt tell us in the article.D. Because he wanted to have a better company.31. Whats the authors attitude toward failure?A. Negative B. Puzzled C. Doubtful D. PositiveDYou can tell a lot about people by looking at their hairnot just wh
36、ether they brush, spray or blow-dry. Scientists have found a way to use hair to figure out where a person is from and where that person has been. The finding could help solve crimes, among other useful applications.Water is central to the new technique. The liquid makes up more than half an adult hu
37、mans body weight. Our bodies break water down into hydrogen (氢 ) and oxygen. Atoms of these two elements end up in our tissues, fingernails, and hair.But not all water is the same. Hydrogen and oxygen atoms can vary in how much they weigh. In the case of hydrogen, for example, there are three types
38、according to their weights. Each type is called a hydrogen isotope (同 位 素 ). And depending on where you live, tap water contains different isotopes.Can hair record this information? Thats what James R. Ehleringer, an environmental chemist at the University of Utah, wondered. To find it out, he and h
39、is colleagues collected hair from hair stylists in 65 cities across the United States. Even though people drink a lot of bottled water these days, the researchers have found that peoples hair has the same isotopes as found in local tap water. Thats probably because people usually cook their food wit
40、h the local water.Authorities can now use the information to analyze hair samples from criminals or crime victims and narrow their search for clues. For example, - 6 -one hair sample used in Ehleringers study came from a man who had moved from San Francisco to Salt Lake City. As his hair grew, it re
41、flected his change in location.32. What do we know about the hydrogen isotopes according to Paragraph 3?A. They are classified by size.B. Each type of them differs in weight.C. They can improve the quality of tap water.D. Some of them cannot combine with oxygen.33. Why is it possible to know where p
42、eople are from by analyzing their hair?A. People use the same bottled water.B. People wash their hair in different ways.C. Peoples hair is affected by the weather of the places they stay.D. Peoples hair indicates the type of water in the places they stay.34. The last paragraph is mainly to show .A.
43、how to recognize criminals B. how to collect hair samplesC. the usefulness of hair analysisD. the process of Ehleringers study35. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Water Composition. B. Change Your Hair.C. Hair Detectives. D. No Way Out.第 二 节 (共 5 小 题 ， 每 小 题 2 分 ， 满 分

45、to a million people.America first recognized the invention of an automobile seat belt in 1849. The government gave a patent to an engineer named Edward Claghorn of New York City so that others would not copy his invention of a safety device. 37 This early version of safety belt was said to include h
46、ooks and other attachments for securing the person to a fixed object.Other inventors followed with different versions of the seat belt. 38 It resulted from the work of a Swedish engineer, Nils Bohlin.
