B
I was born with bad eyesight. At high school I couldn't read the blackboard. By the time I got to the university of Bath to study Chemistry it had got to the point where I couldn't really see images at all, only the difference between light and dark. And a few years later, once I was in the first year of my PhD， I was almost completely blind.
But climbing is my great passion（激情）. I started climbing when I was young. My dad taught me everything about climbing. When I was 11， I led my first climbing route outside. People are usually amazed when they discover that not only do I climb, but I also lead climbs.
At university I joined the Mountaineering Club and was able to climb much more frequently. We had regular trips to indoor walls and weekends away outdoors. I developed a great circle of climbing friends and went on several trips to Europe. After these I started Alpine climbing and ice climbing, too.
When my sight dropped to a level where I could no longer read, I thought I might have to give up leading. But I never thought I would stop climbing. I just learnt to adapt with the support of my friends.
People often ask me, "Why rock climbing？ It doesn't seem like a good activity for a blind person."
But when I think about the danger, crossing the road is far more dangerous, and also, it's something where I'm not in control.
It's quite possible that I wouldn't be such a good climber if I weren't blind. If I didn't have these challenges, it wouldn't focus me. That determination is built through my disability（残疾）.
When I reach the top of a climb, I don't get to appreciate the view, but the feeling of achievement is extremely good.
Climbing is a way to prove my way of thinking in life - which is that I'm not disabled, I'm blind and able.
6. When the author went to university, he ______ .
A. couldn't read the blackboard B. couldn't figure out light and dark
C. nearly couldn't see images D. was almost blind
7. What did the author do when he couldn't read？ ______
A. He thought about quitting climbing. B. He learnt to adapt with others' help.
C. He continued leading climbs. D. He went on several trips to Europe.
8. What can we learn from the passage？ ______
A. The author started climbing at the age of 11.
B. The author began ice climbing when he got his PhD.
C. The author is afraid of crossing the road.
D. The author views blindness in a positive way.
9. Which can best express the main idea of this passage？ ______
A. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
B. All things are difficult before they are easy.
C. Actions speak louder than words.
D. The eye is blind if the mind is absent（缺席的）.
C
Did you know that Albert Einstein could not speak until he was four years old, and could not read until he was seven？ His parents and teachers worried about his mental ability.
Beethoven's music teacher said about him, "As a composer （作曲家） he is hopeless." What if this young boy had believed it？
When Thomas Edison was a young boy, his teachers said he was so stupid that he could never learn anything. He once said, "I remember I used to never be able to get along at school. I was always at the foot of my class …My father thought I was stupid, and I almost decided that I was a stupid person." What if young Thomas had believed what they said about him？
When the sculptor Auguste Rodin was young, he had difficulty learning to read and write. Today, we may say he had a learning disability. His father said of him, "I have an idiot （白痴） for a son." His uncle agreed. " He's uneducable，" he said. What if Rodin had doubted his ability？
Walt Disney was once fired by a newspaper editor because he was thought to have no "good ideas" . Enrico Caruso was told by one music teacher, "You can't sing. You have no voice at all." And an editor told Louisa May Alcott that she was unable to write anything that would have popular attention.
What if these people had listened and become discouraged？ Where would our world be without the music of Beethoven, the art of Rodin or the ideas of Albert Einstein and Walt Disney？ As Oscar Levant once said, "It's not what you are but what you don't become that hurts."
You have great potential（潜能）. When you believe in all you can be, rather than all you cannot become, you will find your place on earth.
10.How many successful people are mentioned as examples in the passage？ ____
A. Six B. Seven C. Eight D. Nine.
11.Which of the following statements is TRUE？ ______

A. He can't be taught. B. He is very clever.
C. He is different. D. He is a late success.
13.What is the best title for the passage？ ______
A. Working Hard for Success B. Having Dreams
C. Believing in Yourself D. Selfchallenging
D
Plenty of children ask their parents for a pet. And now it might be harder for parents to refuse their requests, as a new study shows that young adults who care for an animal have stronger social relationships. American scientists also found that looking after a pet might also help teenagers develop better social skills.
Animals can have positive effects on children, but little is known about the benefits that caring for animals every day can bring to young people. "The young teenagers in the study who cared for pets felt more connected to other people," said Dr. Megan Mueller, a professor at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University, Massachusetts.
Dr. Mueller surveyed more than 500 young people aged between 18 and 26 about their attitudes towards animals. Their responses were used to measure their positive youth development characteristics （特征）such as caring, confidence and connection, as well as feelings of depression. The study found that young adults who cared for animals helped their friends or family more and showed stronger leadership qualities than those who did not look after a pet. The more actively they took part in the pet's care, the higher they scored on their sociable deeds.
"We can't draw causal links with this study, but it is a good starting point to better understand the role of animals in our lives, especially when we are young," said Dr. Mueller. To further develop the research, scientists need to look at how specific features of human experiences are connected with animal experiences, as well as how these relationships develop over time, and look at a larger number of people.
14. If teenagers look after pets, they will probably ______ .
A. Score highly at school. B. Develop better social skills.
C. Become leaders in the future. D. Have only positive characteristics.
15. What does Dr. Mueller mean in Paragraph 2 ？ ______
A. Children should love pets. B. Little is known about pets.
C. Children's growth is connected with pets. D. Pets can benefit children.
16. What will scientists probably do to further the study ？ ______
A. To study more people. B. To communicate with animals.
C. To care for more animals. D. To measure youth development characteristics.
17. Where is the text probably taken from？ ______
A. A scientific journal.（科学杂志） B. A health magazine.（健康杂志）
C. A storybook. D. An education program.（教育类节目）
