     Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in hid class picked for any sports team. "Football, tennis,
cricket- anything with a round ball, I was useless," he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the
one always made fun of in school gym chasses in Devonshire, England.
     It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking
alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders
set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first
marathon.
     The following year, he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway" s School of
Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about Ridgway" s cold-water exploits, Greatly interested, Saunders
read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.
     In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition (探险)
towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite (冻疮), ran into a polar bear
and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled (雪橇) up and over rocky ice.
     Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North pole, and he"s skied more
of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.
     Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back,
a 2900-kilometre journey that has never been completed on skis.
1. What change happened to Saunders after he was 15 years old?
A. He became good at most sports.
B. He began to build up his body.
C. He joined a sports team.
D. He made friends with a runner.
2. The underlined word "exploits" (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to ______.
A. journeys
B. researches
C. adventures
D. operations
3. Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Saunders?
     a. He ran his first marathon.
    b. He skied alone in the North Pole.
    c. he rode his bike in a forest.
    d. He planned an adventure to the South Pole.
A. acdb
B. cdab
C. acbd
D. cabd
4. What does the story mainly tell us about Saunders?
A. He is a success in sports.
B. He is the best British skier.
C. He is Ridgway"s favorite student.
D. He is a good instructor at school.

     Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you"re a thin 14-year-old.
That was me in 1940-the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City"s Pennsyl-vania Railway
Station.
     After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging pas-sengers.
I"d like to join them, thinking,"Everyone else is doing it."
     When I got home that night, I told my dad what I wanted to do."You give an honest day"s work," he
said, looking at me straight in the eye."They"re paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that."
     I followed my dad"s advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
     Of all the jobs I"ve had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me.
Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team
is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with
many things, but not with people who steal. If one of my players were caught stealing, he"d be gone.
     Whether you"re on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can"t trust one another,
there"s going to be trouble.
1. What can be inferred about the baggage boys?
A. They could earn much, but they had to work hard.
B. Many of them earned money in a dishonest way.
C. They were all from poor families.
D. They were all thin, young boys.
2. What does the father"s advice imply?
A. It is wrong to give more pay to the passengers.
B. Don"t believe them if they are paying you more.
C. Don"t follow others to overcharge the passengers.
D. It is difficult to work hard and live as an honest boy.
3. The writer can"t put up with stealing because he thinks that ______.
A. it is a totally shared experience
B. it is considered as the most dangerous
C. it does great harm to human relationship
D. it may lead to the loss of his sports team
4. It can be concluded from the text that ______.
A. his father"s advice helped him to decide which job to take up
B. working in the sports team was his most important experience
C. he learnt much from his shared experience with his team members
D. his experience as a baggage boy had a great influence on his later life

      It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever
imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word "congratulations."I don"t
remember ever smiling so wide.
     Then I looked at my financial (财政的) package.
     The cost of Dream School"s tuition (学费), room and board was around $ 40,000- an impossible sum!
How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges
were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren"t as famous
as my first choice.
     In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a
world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial
problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn"t sure
what to do.
     One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring.
to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself.
     At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus (校园) including
guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all
future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on
campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the
best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.
     As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out that
door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be
spending the next four years right there.
     In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my "dream" university. However, it turned out to be
the right choice of schools for me.
1. How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?
A. He was full of joy.
B. He was lost in his dream.
C. He was worried about the money.
D. He was uncertain which school to go to.
2. We can learn from the passage that the parents were ______.
A. honest
B. strict
C. supportive
D. decisive
3. In Paragraph 5, "offered me a full ride"can be replaced by "_______".
A. would pay for transport to the school
B. would show me around the campus
C. would offer free meals at all events
D. would charge me nothing for tuition
4. What does the author mainly want to say?
A. Your second-choice college may actually by your best fit.
B. You should consider comfort in your choice of schools.
C. You should try your best to attend your dream school.
D. Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.
