During his life Dr James Naismith worked as a doctor, taught P.E and wrote several books.
While he never thought it very important, Dr Naismith is today best known for one thing. He was
the inventor of basketball.
Dr James Naismith was born in Canada in 1861 and his first job was at a special sports
school in the USA．One day the school principal told James he was having a problem with the
students. Because of heavy snow, the students could not go outside. He told James that they
needed a sport the boys could play indoors and gave the teacher two weeks to think of something.
It was on the very last day that James came up with his idea. The “birth of basketball” is said
to be on December 21, 1891, when two teams from the school played the first game. It was quite
different from the basketball games of today. It had 9 players on each team and footballs were
used instead of basketballs. Soon after, the game changed to 5 players on each side, using special
“basketballs” through nets.
Although Dr Naismith did not live to see basketball become the worldwide game it is today,
in 1936, just three years before his death, basketball became an Olympic sport at the Games in
Berlin.
24．Which of the following things did Dr James Naismith NOT do?
A．Teach P.E in school. B．Write some books.
C．Work at a hospital. D．Take part in the Olympic Games.
25．In which season did Dr Naismith invent basketball?
A．Summer. B．Winter. C．Spring. D．Autumn.
26．Why is December 21 thought to be the birthday of basketball?A．It was on this day that Dr Naismith came up with his idea for basketball.
B．It was the day on which Dr Naismith was born.
C．It was the day on which Dr Naismith was asked by his boss to invent a new game.
D．It was on this day that the first game of basketball was played.
27．At the time of Dr Naismith’s death, which of the following was true?
A．Basketball was already a worldwide game.
B．Basketball was played with 9 players on each side.
C．Basketball was an Olympic sport.
D．Basketball was still played using footballs.
All of us face a variety of risks to our health in our daily life. Driving cars and being exposed
to environmental pollutants all pose certain degrees of risk. Some risks would restrict our ability to
lead a good life. And some are risks we might decide to avoid if we had the opportunity to make
informed choices. Indoor air pollution is one risk that you can do something about.
Scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes can be more seriously polluted
than the outdoor air in even the most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people
spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the risks to health
may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors.
In addition, people exposed to indoor air pollutants for the longest periods of time are often
those most susceptible to the effects of indoor air pollution. Such groups include kids, the elderly
and the chronically ill, especially those suffering from respiratory disease.
While pollutant levels from individual sources may not pose a significant health risk by
themselves, most homes have more than one source that contributes to indoor air pollution. There
can be a serious risk from the cumulative effects of these sources. Fortunately, there are steps that
most people can take both to reduce the risk from existing sources and to prevent new problems
from occurring. This brochure was prepared by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
and the U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to help you decide whether to take
action that can reduce the level of indoor air pollution in your own home.
Because so many Americans spend a lot of time in offices with mechanical heating and
cooling systems, there is also a short section on the causes of poor air quality in offices and what
you can do if you suspect that your office may have a problem.28．Who will be exposed to indoor air pollution more often according to the text?
A．A driver. B．A housewife. C．A farmer. D．A cyclist.
29．What does the underlined word “susceptible” in paragraph 3 mean?
A．Sensitive. B．Essential. C．Accustomed. D．Familiar.
30．What can the brochure of EPA and CPSC help people do?
A．Lead a healthier and richer life. B．Throw individual things away.
C．Get rid of the risk of air pollution. D．Reduce the risk of indoor air pollution.
31．What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?
A．To show Americans’ unhealthy lifestyle.
B．To stress the negative influence of pollution.
C．To tell people to reduce the time spent at home.
D．To remind people to take note of indoor air pollution.
Christmas can easily become an expensive time of a year. From gifts to decorating, the
money spent on the celebration adds up quickly. But there’s no reason to completely break the
bank. 32 Make a budget. Set the amount you’re willing to spend for the holiday,
including gift giving, decorating and travel. 33 And if you can keep to your budget,
you’ll lead an easy life in the following weeks and months.
34 Stores have sales for decorations between Halloween and Thanksgiving. And
it’s after Thanksgiving that the prices begin to go up. Better yet, go shopping for next year’s
decorations the day after Christmas. You can buy many things at very low prices right after
Christmas.
Shop for gifts all year round. Whenever you are out shopping, keep an eye out for great
Christmas presents. 35 Shopping early can prevent you from spending more money
than you can afford. And if you spend little here and there throughout the year, Christmas will
have a much smaller influence on your wallet in December.
Scale down your gift giving. Sometimes you just can’t afford to get something for everyone.
Remove the people from your list whom you rarely speak with. 36 The people you do
choose to buy for don’t need something expensive. Keep in mind that it’s the thought that is more
important.
A．Send them simple cards instead.B．This budget is perfect for many people.
C．Once you have a budget set, keep to it.
D．Start shopping for Christmas decorations early.
E．Christmas is known as the season of giving, sharing and receiving.
F．There are ways to celebrate well and spend wisely at the same time.
G．It doesn’t matter when you get the gift, whether it’s January or June.

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One morning after a storm, a boy named Lucas took a walk along the beach. He noticed
many small fish were trapped in the puddles (小水坑) on the sand, unable to return to the sea.
Without help, these fish would surely die. As Lucas continued walking, he spotted a man near the
puddles. The man was tirelessly bending down, picking up the fish and gently throwing them back
into the ocean. Lucas watched in puzzlement as the man saved the lives of the helpless fish.
Then Lucas couldn’t resist approaching the man and said, “There are hundreds, even
thousands of fish in these puddles. You can’t save them all.” “I know,” the man replied without
looking back, “but this fish cares.” As he spoke, he picked up another fish and returned it to the
sea. He added, “This one cares, and this one, and this one…”
As Lucas stood there, watching the man save the fish, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of
admiration mixed with a lot of guilt. Here was a man, who was making a difference in the lives ofthese creatures, while Lucas had never taken such simple yet meaningful actions.
Minutes later, Lucas had another talk with the man. He learned that the man usually came
to the beach before going to work to help the stuck fish. The man explained that he had witnessed
the result of a storm a few years back, in which countless fish died on the shore. Since then, he
had made it his mission to do whatever he could to prevent such a tragedy from happening again.
Lucas was still puzzled by what the man was doing, so he asked the man, “Does it make
sense for you to do that? Even if you could save these fish, could you make any great impact?”
The man smiled and said, “I know my own efforts are insignificant, but if I don’t even try a little
bit, I will feel guilty inside.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；

Moved by the man’s determination, Lucas decided to lend a hand.

66．How to Survive in an Earthquake
Earthquakes have happened in many places recently, causing significant damage. So how to
keep safe during an earthquake has become an important issue. Here are some guidelines.
Above all, don’t be nervous and try to keep calm. If you are outdoors, it’s necessary to get
into an open area away from trees，buildings, walls, power lines and anything else that might fall
on you. If you are indoors, quickly move to a safe place such as under a strong desk. Cover your
head and neck with your arms to protect yourself from falling objects. Finally, never use the lift.
Actually we can reduce the damage that earthquakes bring us if we take right measures.
67．参考范文：Moved by the man’s determination, Lucas decided to lend a hand. He knelt down beside
the man and began picking up the fish and putting them back into the ocean. Together, they
worked tirelessly. Lucas felt a newfound sense of purpose with each fish he saved. As the sun
began to rise higher in the sky, the puddles on the beach started to dry up, and the number of
trapped fish decreased. Lucas and the man continued their work, and their hearts filled with the
idea that they had made a difference, no matter how small.
Finally, Lucas couldn’t help but reflect on his own life. He realized that he had been so
caught up in his own worries and concerns that he had neglected the simple act of kindness
towards others. But watching what the man had done, he saw the power of one person’s actions to
make a difference in the world. He thanked the man for showing him the importance of kindness
and promised to carry the lesson with him. He decided to be a kind person to help others.
