阅读理解。 | My friend, Emma Daniels, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month-long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a café called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom-Alex-used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he"d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived just above the café, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary-General of the United Nations (UN). Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But, when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover in her own handwriting (笔迹). It turned out that the summer before, at a concert back in Montreal, Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends. They decided to exchange (交换) addresses, but neither of them had any paper. The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack (背包) and asked Emma to write her name and address inside. When he returned to California, he left the book behind in Montreal, and his friend Alex kept it. When Alex later moved to Jerusalem, he took the book along. | 1.

My husband suggested we give her a computer to play against. I wasn"t sure my mother was ready for it After all, it had taken 15 years to persuade her to buy an electric cooker. Even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my parents" home. And so began my mother"s adventure in the world of computers. It also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching task for me. I"ve taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching my mother how to do anything. She has been the one teaching me all my life: to cook and sew: to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. Now it was my turn to give something back. It wasn"t easy at the beginning. There was so much to explain and to introduce. Slowly but surely, my mother caught on, making notes in a little notebook. After a few months of Scrabble and other games, I decided it was time to introduce her to word processing (文字处理) This proved to be a bigger challenge (挑战) to her, so I gave her some homework I asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces. "Are you this demanding with your kindergarten pupils?" she asked. "No, of course not," I said. "They already know how to use a computer." My mother isn"t the only one experiencing a fast personal growth period. Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy (过敏反应). For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than we"ve had in the past 20 years. | 1.

"Football, tennis Cricket-anything with a round ball, I was useless, "he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the object of jokes in school gym classes in England"s rural Devonshire. It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first the teen went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to cycle along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind building up his body, increasing his speed, strength and endurance. At age 18, he ran his first marathon. The following year, he met John Ridgway, who became famous in the 1960s for rowing an open boat across the Atlantic Ocean. Saunders was hired as an instructor at Ridgway"s school of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about the older man"s cold-water exploits (成就). Intrigued, Saunders read all he could about Arctic explorers and North Pole expeditions, then decided that this would be his future. Journeys to the Pole aren"t the usual holidays for British country boys, and many people dismissed his dream as fantasy."John Ridgway was one of the few who didn"t say, "You are completely crazy," Saunders says. In 2001, after becoming a skilled skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition toward the North Pole. He suffered frostbite, had a closer encounter (遭遇) with a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit. Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he"s skied more of the Arctic by himself than any other Briton. His old playmates would not believe the transformation. This October, Saunders, 27, heads south to explore from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, an 1800-mile journey that has never been completed on skis. | 1. The turning point in Saunders" life came when _____. | A. he started to play ball games B. he got a mountain bike at age 15 C. he ran his first marathon at age 18 D. he started to receive Ridgway"s training | 2. We can learn from the text that Ridgway _______. | A. dismissed Saunders" dream as fantasy B. built up his body together with Saunders C. hired Saunders for his cold-water experience D. won his fame for his voyage across the Atlantic | 3. What do we know about Saunders? | A. He once worked at a school in Scotland. B. He followed Ridgway to explore the North Pole. C. He was chosen for the school sports team as a kid. D. He was the first Briton to ski alone to the North Pole. | 4. The underlined word "Intrigued" in the third paragraph probably means _____. | A. Excited B. Convinced C. Delighted D. Fascinated | 5. It can be inferred tat Saunders" journey to the North Pole ______. | A. was accompanied by his old playmates B. set a record in the North Pole expedition C. was supported by other Arctic explorers D. made him well-known in the 1960s |
