Basketball star Kobe Bryant 's death has drawn sadness across China.

Just four months after welcoming Bryant to their country during his latest Asian trip, basketball fans in China are now mournful this week after learning that the former Los Angeles Lakers'NBA All Star died at the age of 41 in a helicopter crash( 直升机坠毁) on Sunday in California.

When asked by one of his friends what the secret of his success was, he replied with humor “Do you know what Los Angeles looks like at 4 o clock a.m.? I know.”

Kobe is one of the greatest athletes of his generation and has a great effect on the world of sport and the community of basketball. We will miss him greatly.

A few centuries ago, people looked at the birds and wondered what it would be like to fly like them. There were stories of heroes who stuck bird feathers on their arms and flew up into the sky. About 500 years ago, some people dreamed a different dream. Instead of flying up to the sky, they dreamed of falling from the sky!

In the 15th century, Italian inventors designed a cone- shaped(锥形) object that was supposed to bring a man down safely from a great height. The operator held on to a handle straps tied to his waist. This was the first known design for a parachute(降落伞).

Even the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci drew a type of parachute. His parachute design was in the shape of a pyramid(金 字塔). Other inventors also drew their own designs for a parachute. Unluckily, these were only designs on paper and no one tested them.

A Croatian inventor named Fausto Veranzio looked at Leonardo da Vinci' s parachute design and replaced the pyramid shape with one that looked like a sail from a ship. When Veranzio was 65 years old, he fell ill. Thinking he would not live longer, he decided to try out his parachute invention. He built his parachute using wood and cloth. Tying his invention to his waist, he jumped off the tall bell tower in his city. He landed safely. He was supposedly the first man to successfully use a parachute. However, some people thought this story was not true. If that was the case, then the first person to successfully use a parachute would go to a Frenchman named Louis-Sebastien Lenormand in 1783.

9.Who designed the first known parachute?

A. Italians.  B. Frenchmen.  C. Croatians.  D. Englishmen.

10. What was Leonardo da Vinci ' s parachute shaped like?

A. A feather.  B. A pyramid.  C. A cone.  D. A sail.

11. Which of the following about Fausto Veranzio is TRUE?

A. He copied da Vinci ’s parachute design.

B. He made his parachute with leather and wood.

C. He experimented with his parachute many times.

D. He decided to try his parachute after he was seriously ill.

12. What is the passage mainly about?

A. The dream of flying and falling.

B. Different parachutes in Italy.

C. The origin of the parachute.

D. The usage of parachute invention.

第二节小标题填空(共3小题;每小题3分,满分9分)

下面文章中有3处(第13-15题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C和D)中.

选出符合各段意思的小标题，并在答题卡上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

Over the next few weeks, you will be studying for final exams. Here are some tips to all of you on how you can deal with your tasks throughout the weeks.

13

Many times, creating study guides are the most time-consuming part of studying. Create these outlines or guides one week before the tests so you can just read the organized material and are able to answer the questions quickly and effectively.

Study in Groups Only if It Benefits You.

Certainly there are many cases where studying in groups can be beneficial. However, a study group only works well if you are concentrated and serious. If not, conversations, jokes, and distractions can take control of the study sessions.

14

The basis of this rule is to study 50 minutes of every hour, and keep the last 10 minutes to clear your mind. The idea is that you should focus 100% during study and use the remaining to relax yourself. Create an alarm and stick to that alarm.

15

Whenever you find yourself having practice problems, don't give up on them. Finish the problems completely so you can understand them better and leave no place for doubt. Be sure to work out the problems because, more often than not, the ones you don 't understand are the ones that end up in the test.

A.50-10 Rule.

B. Do a Practice Test.

C. Finish Your Practice Problems.

D. Create Study Guides One Week before the Final.
