【題目】Canyoning (蹦谷運動)

The sports of canyoning explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast, or in river canyons. Protected by wetsuits and helmets (頭盔), people jump from cliffs (懸崖) and waterfalls and explore caves and river canyons that would not normally be arrived at.

It was pioneered in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, www.tyf.com) and several thousand people leap from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).

Scuba diving

Diving is not popular with British people. The challenges of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best wreck diving in the world.

The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133 www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688 www.padi.com) run courses teaching the important skills right up and to instructor level.

Surfing

The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer and the surf is relatively steady, particularly in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn when water temperatures are at their mildest.

The British Surfing Association (01479 861256 www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.

Rock climbing

The most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, coastal regions, while vast areas of Scotland are a climber’s paradise (天堂). Climbing courses and climbing walls can be located on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878, www.thebmc.co.uk) which offers a series of short films that take the new climber through a step-by-step guide to visiting a climbing wall for the first time.

A. Canyoning. B. Surfing.

C. Scuba diving. D. Rock climbing.

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】C

【解析】試題分析: 本文講述了四項運動，與英國人有關(guān)的；

【1】B 考查細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Canyoning (蹦谷運動)中提到A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).半天的旅行一個人是50英鎊，16歲以下的孩子30，所以二個成人一個15孩子所需要費用是260，故選B項。

【2】A 考查細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Surfing中提到The British Surfing Association (01479 861256 www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.可知選A項。

【3】C 考查推理判斷題。根據(jù)Scuba diving中提到Diving is not popular with British people. The challenges of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough潛水不受英國人的歡迎，因為水太冷且水質(zhì)不清澈，故選C項。

【題目】Very few people look forward to and enjoy exams. That doesn’t have to mean that you should be afraid of them, though. The following tips will help you get through that terrible exam period.

Here are eight steps to help you during exams:

1. Make sure you know how much time you will have in the exam, and how many questions there will be. Then you can divide your time among the questions to make sure that they all get answered.

2. When you’re doing an exam that involves (涉及) long answers, it is a good idea to leave some space at the end of the answer so that you can add any extra comments that might come to mind when you reread your paper.

3. Don’t spend all of your time only on questions that you know the answer to because you will get a worse mark for answering some questions very well and some not at all.

4. It is worth taking a little extra time to make sure that your handwriting is neat. Then the examiner will be able to read it! Try to avoid spelling mistakes too!

5. The more prepared you are, the more likely you are to succeed.

6. Keep calm. If you feel yourself getting worried, take a deep breath.

7. Don’t try to discuss the exam after you’ve finished it. If you’ve got different answers from your friends, there’s no point worrying about it.

8. Once an exam is over, just forget about it. There is nothing more you can do about it. The best thing you can do is to go home and prepare for the next one.

【1】 You can get a better mark if ______.

A. you spend all of your time on questions that you are not good at

B. you discuss the answers with your friends after exams

C. you go over your notes carefully for the exam

【題目】Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.

Born in September, 1987, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies’ two daughters. Along with nine other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sévigné in Paris.

Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities（設(shè)備） to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognized in the form of a Military’s Medal by the French government.
In 1918, Irene became her mother’s assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.

Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity（輻射能）. Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 1956.

【1】Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?

A. Because she received a degree in mathematics.

B. Because she contributed to saving the wounded.

C. Because she won the Nobel Prize with Frederic.

D. Because she worked as a helper to her mother.

【2】Where did Irene Curie meet her husband Frederic Joliot?
A. At the Curie Institute.

B. At the University of Paris.
C. At a military hospital.

D. At the College of Sevigne.

【3】When was the second child of Irene Curie and Frederic Joliot born?

A. In 1932. B. In 1927.

C. In 1897. D. In 1926.

【4】In which of the following aspects was Irene Curie different from her mother ?

A. Irene worked with radioactivity.

B. Irene combined family and career.

C. Irene won the Nobel Prize once.

D. Irene died from leukemia.
