Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children’s careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sports men and women? For many children it means starting schoolwork very young, and going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place. It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing. Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and women. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc. Can all be very expensive? Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training young that you can reach the top as a successful sports person.

71. Parents may feel hard to make a decision when their children show special interest in a sport. 72. Those children can easily understand why they have to be trained so hard. 73. All parents have to pay for the children’s training so much.

74. Sports clothes, transport to competitions and special equipment can all be very expensive. 75. According to the doctors, serious training may sometimes be dangerous.

76. Professional trainers believe without hard training, the sportsmen won’t reach the top. 77. The writer suggests parents not train their children into professional athletes. B. Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案): ( 7分)

Two American scientists told the people in industrial nations that they would be much healthier if they ate more of the same kind of foods eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.

The scientists say that the human body has changed very l 92 since human first appeared on earth, but the way we live has changed greatly. Our body has not been able to deal with these changes in life style and this has led to new kinds of d 93 . These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times. So they are called “diseases of civilization（文明）”. Many cancers and diseases of the blood system, including heart attacks and strokes（中风）are examples of such diseases.

Scientists noted that early stone-age people used very little alcohol（酒精）or tobacco (烟草), probably none. Ancient people also got a great deal of physical e 94 , but a change in food is one of the main differences b 95 life in ancient times and life today. Stone-age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than farm animals. They also ate a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits. They did not use m 96 and other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. But today, we eat a lot of dairy products and grain foods. We eat six times more salt than stone-age people. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but much l 97 vitamin C.

People today probably do not w 98 to live as people thousands of years ago did, but scientists say that we would be much healthier if we ate as those ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet foods.

E. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 14分)

An American magazine wanted to see how hard it would be to put a bomb on an airplane. A reporter put a suitcase on the floor of the airport to see if anyone would check it. Security officers walked by the bag but didn’t stop. Two airplanes arrived and left. A cleaner swept the floor around

6

the bag three times. Three people tripped over it. Finally after three hours, the reporter took his bag away.

The magazine said it would be easy for a terrorist () to put a bomb on an airplane in America. Suitcases aren’t x-rayed unless you carry them with you on the airplane. You can put a suitcase on an airplane even you don’t have a ticket for the plane.

Terrorists often use plastic bombs--the size of a small radio-- that can blow up (使爆炸) an airplane while it’s in the air. The government is building a new $900,000 machine that can find a plastic bomb.

The people who check the bags that Americans carry with on the plane aren’t paid much money. The magazine asked one of them what would happen if he made a mistake and an airplane exploded. He said if it happened once, he would have to have some more training. If it happened again, he said he might be fired--out of job.

99. Why does a reporter put a suitcase on the floor of the airport? 100. How many planes arrived and left during the three hours?

101. It is very difficult to put a bomb on an airplane in America, isn’t it?

102. In what case (在什么情况下) will people’s bags be x-rayed in America? 103. What do terrorists often use to blow up an airplane? 104. What is the government doing to find plastic bags?

105. What will happen when an airplane explodes because of a clerk’s mistake for the first time? IX. Writing (作文): (共18分)

Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But, before 1750, the idea of skating didn’t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making musical instruments.

One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a music party. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room. Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll finally. He decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.

On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was surprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on, suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking into pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin’s!
