　　1.Nicolai Calabria has already become one of the best 106-pound wrestlers.He has successfully climbed to the top of the highest mountain in Africa,and most importantly,he’s changed the attitude of any normal person who watches him compete.

　　The 17-year-old teenager has one leg.He was born that way,but his goal is to show it’s not the one thing that defines him.He would also be the first one to tell you that he just wants to prove to others and himself that he’s just like other normal ones.

　　When Calabria was young,his parents tried different prostheses(假肢)to find out which was most comfortable for their son as he tried to keep up with a family,who has a preference for sports.

　　At first,the Calabrias had their middle child in a prosthesis that looked and functioned like a “real” leg,but soon they decided to choose a different path when they found it wasn’t beneficial to his movement.Then the family moved him to arm crutches(腋杖)and from there a new burst of energy was found.

　　Getting others to believe that he could take off on the soccer field took a little bit longer.When the Calabrias moved to Concord,they had a hard time convincing the town soccer program to allow a child like him to compete with able-bodied kids.After months and months of debates and meetings,the family received the answer they were looking for.Since then,witnessing a young man on crutches who competes against those with two legs has become a fixed event in the Concord community. 

　　“At that time I had nothing but discouragement working with the soccer community.However,now I have nothing but admiration for the fact that he’s been allowed to play,and people see that he adds value to game,” his father said.“I just think it’s a great result.”

　　【语篇导读】本文讲述了17岁的Calabria天生残疾,但他克服了常人想象不到的困难,驰骋在足球场上,并成为最佳摔跤运动员,还攀登了非洲最高峰。

　　This passage shows us a boy with one leg 　. 

　　A.can do what a normal teenager can

　　B.is realizing as many dreams as he can

　　C.can make a sport event more valuable

　　D.can add value to society

　　答案:A

　　解析:细节理解题。本文的主人公Calabria是个残疾人,但他用自己的毅力告诉我们,残疾人也能做肢体健全的人能做的事。第一段最后一句说,他改变了看他比赛的任何一个肢体健全的人对残疾人的态度,因此选A项。

　　2.We can learn from Paragraph 5 that 　. 

　　A.Calabria proved to be the most excellent player of the team

　　B.it was not easy for Calabria to be accepted to the town soccer team

　　C.Calabria’s parents didn’t allow him to play soccer at first

　　D.there are some other disabled children in the soccer team

　　答案:B

　　解析:细节理解题。第五段介绍了Calabria是如何进入美国康科德社区的足球队,与肢体健全的孩子们一起踢足球的。从该段的叙述来看,他进入球队颇费周折(theyhadahardtimeconvincing),因此选B项。

　　3.In Paragraph 5,the underlined part probably means “　”. 

　　A.a must-see

　　B.a planned programme

　　C.an extra game

　　D.a special occasion

　　答案:A

　　解析:词义猜测题。由第五段可知,从那以后,这个使用腋杖的年轻人与其他肢体健全的人一起比赛就成了康科德社区“固定的事情”,显然画线部分的含义不是“计划的节目”“额外的比赛”“特殊的时刻”,而是“必看的节目”,因此选A项。

　　4.It is implied in the last paragraph that Nicolai’s father 　. 

　　A.has been discouraged since Nicolai played soccer

　　B.thinks that Nicolai is playing a key role in the team

　　C.is very delighted that Nicolai can play soccer in the team

　　D.hasn’t expected that Nicolai can be allowed to play soccer

　　答案:C

　　解析:推理判断题。最后一段Calabria的父亲说他很赞赏孩子能参加足球比赛(nothingbutadmiration),说Calabria在赛场上为比赛增添了价值,因此选C项。

　　Ⅱ.完形填空

　　1.I began training to swim the English Channel at 58 years old.The 　1　 I was asked over and over again was this:“Why?” 

　　When a student reporter of Indiana University recently asked me this question,I said,“First let me 　2　 you a question.What are your 　3　 for this summer?”He 　4　 that he was going to bag groceries(食品杂货)in the supermarket.I didn’t have to say more;he understood my 　5　 

　　A 　6　 and an element of adventure are welcome whether you are 20 or 58 　7　 when you have a choice.But why did I 　8　 to swim the Channel at 58?It is the challenge that 　9　 about 100 swimmers every year who are willing to spend time,effort and money 　10　 it. 

　　I don’t think that I am a superman.I do think I have three things going for me:
