I had just 16 my dream. It was sure too big at that point to somebody whose 17 not only mattered, but whose emotional support could play a key role.Then I was just 20, and still a(n) 18 athlete. Maybe my dream wasn’t based on reality. After all, I had tried out for the national team for the first time the previous year and been __19 . I lacked the height that most Olympic rowers possess, not to 20 much experience as an athlete, and I suffered from asthma, but still, I was shocked by my coach’s response. 21__ not just by his choice of words, but by his certainty, I left the gym in a panic.As I walked, I began to rethink my future, making room for my coach’s op inion, setting 22 my dream. A small inner voice had joined forces with the coach’s. “Maybe he’s 23 .”But then, another voice 24 . “What does he know? Why does he get to decide?” That my own coach didn’t have faith in me didn’t mean I had to giv e up on myself so quickly. By the time I arrived back at my apartment, I was 25 my coach. And my 26 was back on center stage.27 came easy when it came to fulfilling that dream. I tried out for two more national teams and two different coaches cut me.But I was driven by my love of the 28 of rowing.

I kept training four more years, and 31 won silver at the 1984 Olympics.All the effort was worth it. Everything I have today is a result of 32 that dream, all those hours on the water and in the stadium. They got me here, 33 I know now that big ambitions need not just time to develop, but firm 34 in them. If I’m not going to be my own 35_ for my dreams, no one else will.

The Supreme Court justices ruled states cannot deny gay men and women the same marriage rights. The decision means the 13 states with bans on same-sex marriage are no longer able to enforce them.Same-sex couples “ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law”. Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion: “The Constitution grants them that right.”The decision came after decades of litigation（诉讼） and activism. It set off celebrations across the US. In affected states including Georgia, Michigan, Ohio and Texas, same-sex couples rushed to wed, while officials in Mississippi and Louisiana said marriages had to wait until procedural issues were addressed, reported the BBC.According to “The New York Times”, the ruling came against the backdrop of fast-moving changes in public opinion in the US, with polls indicating that most Americans now approve of same-sex marriage.US President Barack Obama welcomed the ruling, saying it “affirms what millions of Americans already believe in their hearts.” “Today,” he said in a press release, “we can say, in nouncertain terms, that we have made our union a little more perfect.”Another win.This was the second time the Supreme Court took up same-sex marriage, according to an article in “Business Insider”. The first time, in June 2013, the court made a decision that allowed the US federal government to recognize same-sex marriages in states where they were already legal.But at that time, the Supreme Court declined to rule on the broader question about gay marriage: Is there a constitutional（宪法的） right to same-sex marriage? The June 26 ruling gave a positive answer to that question.Justice Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion that the Constitution should evolve with societal changes.“The nature of injustice is that we may not always see it in our own times,” he wrote. “The generations that wrote and ratif ied the “Bill of Rights” and the “Fourteenth Amendment（修正案）” did not exactly know the extent of freedom in all of its dimensions, and so they hoped the future generations can protect the right of all persons to enjoy liberty as we learn its meaning.”The Fourteenth Amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection of the law. In the June 26 ruling, the Supreme Court declared that the equal protection clause of the amendment requires marriage rights be extended to same-sex couples, too.38. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. The majority of Americans now object to same-sex marriage.B. Gay men and women did not care about the ruling.C. All the US states did not ban same-sex marriage before the ruling.D. The US president believes the country will be less perfect after the ruling.39. It can be inferred that ________.A. before June 26, most Americans have doubt about same-sex marriage.B. this is the first time the Americans have got the same-sex marriage right.C. thanks to the amendment, all the Same-sex couples can get married immediately.D. Americans struggled for decades to win the same-sex right.40. Why does the author refer to Justice Kennedy’s “the nature of injustice is that we may notalways see it in our own times” ?A. The author thinks that it is unfair for same-sex marriage not to have the marriage right.B. The author wants to show that it is difficult for same-sex marriage couple to get the right.C. The author thinks that in our own times we can not see the justice.D. The author shows his dissatisfaction with the delayed approval of the legal same-sexmarriage.CIf you could change your child’s DNA in the future to protect them against diseases, would you? It could be possible because of technology known as CRISPR-Cas, or just CRISPR.CRISPR involves a piece of RNA, a chemical messenger, designed to work on one part of DNA; it also uses an enzyme (酶) that can take unwanted genes out and put new ones in, according to The Economist. There are other ways of editing DNA, but CRISPR will do it very simply, quickly, and exactly.The uses of CRISPR could mean that cures are developed for everything from Alzheimer’s to cancer to HIV. By allowing doctors to put just the right cancer-killing genes into a patient’s immune system, the technology could help greatly.In April scientists in China said they had tried using CRISPR to edit the genomes (基因组) of human embryos. Though the embryos would never turn into humans, this was the first time anyone had ever tried to edit DNA from human beings. With this in mind, the US’ National Academy of Sciences plans to discuss questions about CRISPR’s ethics (伦理问题).For example, CRISPR doesn’t work properly yet. As well as cutting the DNA it is looking for, it often cuts other DNA, too. In addition, we currently seem to have too little understanding of what DNA gives people what qualities.There are also moral questions around “playing God”. Of course, medicine already stops natural things from happening ——for example, it saves people from infections. The opportunities to treat diseases make it hard to say we shouldn’t keep going.A harder question is whether it is ever right to edit human germ-line (种系) cells and make changes that are passed on to children. This is banned in 40 countries and restricted in many others. However, CRISPR means that if genes can be edited out, they can also be edited back in. It may be up to us as a society to decide when and where editing the genome is wrong.Also, according to The Economist, gene editing may mean that parents make choices that are not obviously in the best interests of their children: “Deaf parents may prefer their children to bedeaf too; parents might want to make their children more intelligent at all costs.”In the end, more research is still needed to see what we can and can’t do with CRISPR. “It’s still a huge mystery how we work,” Craig Mello, a UMass Medical School biologist and Nobel Prize winner, told The Boston Globe. “We’re just trying to figure out this amazingly complicated thing we call life.”41. What is the article mainly about?A. How CRISPR was developed by scientists.B. What we can and can’t do with CRISPR.C. Chinese scientists’ experiment of using CRISPR to edit human embryos.D. The advantages of CRISPR and arguments about its ethics.42. According to the article, the technology of CRISPR ________.A. is very safe because it only cuts the DNA it is looking forB. is banned in 42 countries and restricted in many othersC. could cause parents to make unwise choices for their childrenD. could help us discover the link between DNA and the qualities it gives people43. It can be concluded from the article that CRISPR ________.A. could be helpful in the treatment of cancer and HIVB. allows scientists to edit genomes for the first timeC. is a technology that uses an enzyme to work on RNA and DNAD. has proven to be the most effective way to protect children against diseases44. What is the author’s attitude toward CRISPR?A. Supportive.B. Worried.C. Negative.D. Objective.DMy mother believed you could be anything you wanted to be in America. America was where all my mother’s hopes lay. She had come here in 1949 after losing everything in China. But she never looked back with regret. There were so many ways for things to get better.at anything.” We didn’t immediately pick the right kind of prodigy. At first my mother thought I could be a Chi nese Shirley Temple. We’d watch Shirley’s old movies on TV as though they were training films. My mother would poke my arm and say, “Ni kan”— You watch. And I would seeShirley tapping her feet, or singing a sailor song, or pursing her lips into a very round O while saying, “Oh my goodness.”Soon after my mother got this idea about Shirley Temple, she took me to a beauty training school and put me in the hands of a student who could barely hold the scissors without shaking. Instead of getting big fat curls, I emerged with an uneven mass of crinkly black fuzz. My mother dragged me off to the bathroom and tried to wet down my hair.“You look like Negro Chinese,” she lamented, as if I had done this on purpose.In fact, in the beginning, I was just as excited as my mother, maybe even more so. I pictured this prodigy part of me as many different images, trying each one on for size. I was a dainty ballerina girl standing by the curtains, waiting to hear the right music that would send me floating on my tiptoes. I was Cinderella stepping from her pumpkin carriage with sparkly cartoon music filling the air.In all of my imaginings, I was filled with a sense that I would soon become perfect. My mother and father would adore me. I would be beyond reproach. I would never feel the need to sulk for anything.But sometimes the prodigy in me became impatient. “If you don’t hurry up and get me out of here, I’m disappearing for good,” it warned. “And then you’ll always be nothing.”Every night after dinner, my mother and I would sit at the Formica kitchen table. She would present new tests, taking her examples from stories of amazing children she had read and a dozen other magazines she kept in a pile in our bathroom. My mother got these magazines from people whose houses she cleaned. She would look through them all, searching for stories about remarkable children.The first night she brought out a story about a three-year-old boy who knew the capitals of all the states and even most of the European countries. A teacher was quoted as saying the little boy could also pronounce the names of the foreign cities correctly.“What’s the capital of Finland?” my mother asked me, looking at the magazine story.All I knew was the capital of California, because Sacramento was the name of the street weanswer.The tests got harder—multiplying numbers in my head, finding the queen of hearts in a deck of cards, trying to stand on my head without using my hands, predicting the daily temperatures in Los Angeles, New York, and London.And after seeing my mother’s disappointed face once again, something inside o f me began to die. I hated the tests, the raised hopes and failed expectations. Before going to bed that night, I looked in the mirror and when I saw only my face staring back—and that it would always be this ordinary face—I began to cry. Such a sad, ugly girl! I made high pitched noises like a crazed animal, trying to scratch out the face in the mirror.And then I saw what seemed to be the prodigy side of me—because I had never seen that face before. I looked at my reflection, blinking so I could see more clearly. The girl staring back at me was angry, powerful. This girl and I were the same. I had new thoughts, willful thoughts, or rather thoughts filled with lots of won’ts. I won’t let her change me, I promised myself. I won’t be what I’m not.45.

Difficult American ChildhoodD. Mother’s Expe rience第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）If your determination for the new year is typical, it probably includes a commitment to lose weight. But if you are like most Americans, any success you have cutting pounds will be short-lived, and you’ll end the year weighing more than you do righ t now.So why are Americans addicted to weight loss? Many people say they want to lose weight to improve their health, but this may not actually be their primary motivation. In one of the more interesting surveys I’ve seen, more than three-fourths of the 231 dieters surveyed said that they would take a pill that would guarantee they would achieve or maintain their desired weight even if it would lower their life expectancy. On average, they were willing to give up 5.7 years.These findings may seem puzzling, but they are not so surprising when you consider weight-loss attempts for what they really are: efforts to protect against weight-based discrimination.Yale researchers have shown that weight discrimination in the US has increased dramatically in the last decade and is now comparable in prevalence (普遍) to rates of reported racial discrimination, especially among women.Multiple studies have documented weight prejudice in employment, healthcare, education and public spaces – unequal treatment based on stereotyping (模式化) fat people as lazy, unmotivated, sloppy and lacking in self-control and competence.When I was doing research for a book on the social understanding of fat, several heavy women told me they were often blamed for eating in public. Some tearfully shared stories of having had people actually throw food at them. Heavy women are routinely teased in advertisements, television and film.Of course, there are genuine health risks associated with higher body mass. The clearest case isthat of Type 2 diabetes, which becomes more likely as weight goes up.It is clear that anti-fat prejudice in and of itself has a bad effect on public health in ways many may not suspect.Fear of tease leads many heavier women to avoid exercising in public or even – when they are very heavy – to avoid leaving their homes, taking away social interaction from them. And the fear of becoming fat can lead women of all sizes to develop eating disorders that can reduce their lives and be dangerous to their health.What should be done about weight-based discrimination? The answer is to call for increasing tolerance and appreciation of diverse body types.This year, before setting about another diet, ask yourself why you want to lose weight. If it is to improve your health, perhaps you should focus on health-increasing behaviors that are more directly linked to health: swear, for example, to get more sleep, eat more fruits and vegetables, get regular physical activity, or spend more time with friends.But if you are trying to change your body to protect against discrimination and shame, consider making a different kind of new year’s determination: to stand up to intolerance and prejudice in all its various forms.模拟训练五单选：21-35 DBAAC CACBD BDBCA 36-55 CDDBC ACBBA DBCAC BDCBA 56-70 BDCDB DCADA DCBBA 71. failure 72.
