阅读理解     I"m a 21yearold boy, and this is my story.
     A month after I graduated from high school in 2004, I was coming home from swim practice and was
involved in a car accident.I was so seriously injured that I was in a coma (昏迷) for over two months at
Prince Georges Hospital.
      I died eight times during my coma and I couldn"t talk or communicate when I woke up.Walking was
never going to happen again due to all the extreme injuries.Just like my body, my dreams were shattered  (破灭). But I was not going to let my injuries stop me from living my dream.
      After 14 operations and 36 blood transfusions, I had to learn how to talk, eat, walk, shower, and live
independently again.When I was out of hospital, I still had to go to outpatient therapy (门诊治疗) in
Waldorf, Maryland.After spending a few months in a wheelchair, I took baby  steps to walk on my own.
It was a miracle (奇迹) that I  could walk again, but I wanted to prove that I could not  only walk, but
run.When it came true, I wanted to get  back in the pool again.After a few lung tests, I was able  to go in
the pool a little bit each week.After a few months  of swim training, I began my freshman year at St.Mary"s College of   Maryland and became a proud member of the swim team.
     By telling my story, I want to make a positive influence on the world.I am just trying to live each day
to the fullest and inspire other people to never give up on their dreams no matter how bad a situation is.I
remember when I was still in my hospital bed, I would have my mom and dad push me around in my
wheelchair to the other rooms to see the other patients and talk to them and their families.I wanted to let
them know that everything was going to be okay.Somehow, things would work out for the best.

1.When the car accident happened, the author________.

A. was a high school student

D. was returning home from a swim competition

2. It can be inferred that the author________after he woke up from his coma.

A. was out of hospital
B. was in surprise
C. faced physical and mental challenges
D. was worried about his lung

3. What can we learn from the author"s recovery?

D. A good beginning is half done.

4.What procedure did the author follow to full recovery?

"It is just a goal," he said confidently."If I don"t succeed I am okay.I will try again." Romero has already climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mount McKinley in Alaska among others.

"I know it requires a lot of patience.I will remain patient.I want to stay safe and make right choice," Romero said of his climb using the northeast ridge (山脊) route on the Chinese side of the mountain.

A. to break the record of the youngest climber to climb Everest Summit B. to pick a small piece of rock from the top of Everest Summit C. to climb the highest mountains on all seven continents D. to climb the highest mountains in all 50 states in the US 3.

I remember that when I was in my teens,I used to go against many of the Dos and Don"ts my parents taught me.For example,when I kept playing jazz records on the player,my father would think of such music as making noise and replace them with disks of classical music that I always considered extremely dull. My mom and dad were also very particular about the friends I went out with,always saying that "One rotten (腐烂) apple could ruin a whole barrel of apples". When I insisted on sleeping with my pet dog, they immediately said NO because they thought that I would be bitten by fleas (跳蚤). These are just a few examples of many of the things that I thought my parents were unreasonable about.Today,however,I am a father of a boy of sixteen,and I find that I,too,am pressuring my son with a lot of rules that he seems to find hard to accept.The other day,I noticed that my son"s hair was too long, so I told him to go to the barber"s and get it cut short.Usually,he is fairly obedient,but this time he put_his_ foot_down."What"s wrong with my long hair?I don"t think you have the right to order me to cut it short, even if you"re my father!" When I was a boy,if I had spoken in such a way to my father,he would have taught me a good lesson. But now we are living in a world with more freedom.My son"s insistence on wearing his long hair was only an example of the generation gap that existed between us.So I tried to be more understanding and now he still wears his long hair. 1. The writer"s parents thought it proper for him to________. A. sleep with his pet dog B. listen to jazz C. be careful about making friends D. wear long hair 2. Which of the following is true? A. The writer gave more freedom to his son. B. The writer"s son often went against him. C. The writer always obeyed his parents as a child. D. The writer liked wearing long hair. 3. The underlined phrase "put his foot down" in the third paragraph means ________. A. obeyed B. insisted C. accepted D. left 4. The writer thinks that________. A. parents should be more strict with their children B. no generation gap exists between parents and children C. parents have the right to order their children D. parents should show more respect to their children
