Ben opened his book and studied the instructions to build a toy boat. His best friend Isaac raced around the yard. Ben always worked hard while Issac just wanted to play and have fun.

Six years later, at sixteen, Ben was taken on as an apprentice (学徒) ship builder. For the next few years, he worked hard and paid attention to everything he was shown. The manager of the shipyard approached Ben one day. "I've had my eye on you, Ben. You're one of the hardest workers I have ever seen. You have gone from apprentice to lead worker to foreman. Although you are young, we are promoting (提拔) you to supervisor (监督员) over the entire yard." Ben shook the manage's hand. A sense of pride filled his chest.

Over the next several years, Ben continued to work hard. He created his own ship building company and built a famous ship. He was proud of himself for working to make his dream of becoming a respected shipbuilder come true.

One evening, Ben happened into a butcher shop. There with a broom in his hand was his old friend Issac. Upon seeing Ben, Isaac threw the broom behind the counter. "Ben, it's so good to see you. What have you been up to?" Ben explained what he had done over the past years. Hearing that Ben was his own master of shipyard, Isaac lowered his head. "I sweep the floors at the butcher shop at night. And, I sleep in the back room because I can't afford anything else. I've been doing this since I'm 16." "I see,” said Ben. "Well, we're going to do something about that." Ben handed Isaac his card. "Come to my yard on Monday morning, and I'll make you an apprentice ship builder. But I warn you, you must work and move forward on the job, or I will have to fire you."

In 1916, two girls of rich families, best friends from Aubun, N.Y Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond Underwood traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to instruct in a one -room school house. The girls had gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them, to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the children whose shoes were held together with strings was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.

Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had undertaken.

They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy (隐私)，rare baths, and a blanket of snow on their quilt (被子) when they woke up in the moming. Some momings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the schoolhouse to find the children crying from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.

In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism (女权主义)，which of course influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads, which involved (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and Dorothy's return to Auburn.

Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the people move her to some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse,looking down from a hill top: "When the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose.The snow was marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter."

28.Why did Dorothy and Rosamond go to the Rocky Mountains?

A.To teach in a school.

B.To study American history.

C.To write a book.

D.To do sightseeing.

29.What can we learn about the girls from paragraph 3?

A.They enjoyed much respect.

B They had a room with a bathtub.

C.They lived with the local kids.

D.They suffered some difficulty.

30.Which part of Wickenden's writing is hair-raising?

A.The extreme climate of Aubum.

B.The living conditions in Elkhead.

C.The railroad building in the Rockies.

D.The natural beauty of the West.

31.Where does the text probably come from?

A.A news report.        B.A book review.

C.A children's story.     D.A diary entry.

D

Great scientific progress has been made in recent years to show that walking is among the simplest and most effective for people to promote (促进) physical health and help prevent diseases. A research has brought more good news.

A team of researchers looked at data (数据) on 474,919 people who took part in the UK Biobank study, in which they answered whether the walking speed was slow, average or fast. Researchers also measured factors (因素) including the people's BMI (体重指数) and body-fat percentage.

They found that people who walked fast had longer life expectancies (预期寿命) than the others in spite of their BMI, at 86.7 to 87.8 years for women 85.2 to 86.8 years for men. Those who walked slowly had short expectancies, particularly those who moved slowly and had a BMI of less than 20, even though this was in the healthy range. Women in this group had an average life expectancy of 72.4 years, dropping to 64.8 years for men.

The lowest life expectancy was seen in those who were underweight with a slow walking speed, which is in contrast to the assumption: that is often made that fatness creates the greatest risk. In fact, many others have also reported an increased risk of death rate in those who are underweight, although this research is the first to investigate this in relation to walking speed. However, the study is not a cause-and-effect relationship. More research must be done to look at whether the high-risk group could improve their life expectancies by picking up their speed.

"While there're likely to be many factors contributing to the strength of our findings, increasing your fitness is one of the best things you can do for your health," said Tom Yates, lead author of the study. "Increasing your walking speed in everyday life is a good way to increase fitness levels, particularly in those who are slow walkers. So get moving fast!"

32.How did the researchers carry out their new research?

A.By observing many people.

B.By doing surveys.

C.By analyzing the information.

D.By doing experiments.

33.What does the author say about the study?

A.It needs further research.

B.It arrives at a wrong conclusion.

C.Its findings are not reasonable.

D.Its results are similar to those of past studies.

34.What is Yates attempting to do in the last paragraph?

A.Make comments.      B.Give suggestions.

C.Offer explanations.    D.Express opinions.

35.Which would be the best title for the passage?

A.Walk for better health.

B.Fast walkers appear to live longer.

C.Your BMI determines how long you live.

D.Increasing your fitness matters.

One night when he finished the story, he said, "Jenny, do you love me?"

"Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you," the little girl said.

"Well, then, give me your pearl necklace."

"Oh! Daddy, not my pearl necklace! Jenny refused. "But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. And you can have her tea party outfit (装饰), too. Okay?
