tennis players in the world and I love playing table tennis.

trained hard, so she became a great player later.

        　　Daming: She's won many world competitions, including four gold medals in
the Olympics. She stopped playing when she was twenty- four.
        　　Ms Li: What did she do after that?
        　　Darning: She began to study at Tsinghua University in Beijing and then
attended university abroad. Her English wasn't good enough when she began. Once
again she worked hard, and seven years later, she completed her doctor's degree
at Cambridge University. Whatever she does, she never gives up!

has a very strong will.

        　　Teenager Brian Robeson was traveling from the USA to Canada to see his
father. He was the only passenger in a small plane，high above the Canadian
mountains, when suddenly the pilot had a heart disease and died!
        　　Brian was frightened. He was shaking, but he tried not to panic. Below him,
he could see a lake. He turned the plane towards the lake and，unbelievably, he
landed on the water. Brian got out of the plane. He swam to the beach and then
he fell asleep.
        　　When Brian woke up the next morning, he was cold and hungry. The boy only
had the clothes he was wearing and a small hatchet—a present from his mother.
Then he remembered a TV programme about how to live in the wild. He made a
shelter(栖息处)with grass and some branches from the trees. He used his hatchet to
cut wood and started a fire. He ate fruit from the forest. He caught fish in the
lake and killed rabbits with some tools made by himself.
        　　One day, a few weeks later, Brian was fishing by the lake when he heard a
noise. He could see a plane above the trees. It was looking for him! Quickly, he
made a fire, and the pilot saw the smoke. After fifty-four days in the Canadian
woods, Brian's amazing adventure was finally over.
        　　46. What happened when Brian was traveling to Canada?
        　　A. Something was wrong with the plane. B. He felt frightened at the high
mountains.

disease and fell off the plane.

        　　A
        　　On June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter,
told the world that they could now read the whole “map” of the human body: DNA.
DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is
the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their
DNA to make our own.
        　　People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In
1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other
people in our family. It is because of small things named “genes” in our body.
In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out
that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special
language.
        　　In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA
showing how DNA tells the cell (细胞) to build its parts. Scientists have now
found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all
do. By understanding what just one “word” means, we can help save more people
from several illnesses.

        　　Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick
people. Other people worry that when people begin to know more words and find
out lots of other information, we might use it in a wrong way, just to make
people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs. Man would have to
meet a lot of trouble if DNA technic wasn’t limited in use.
        　　51. When did we first know why we look like other people in our family?
        　　A. In 1860. B. In 1953. C. In 1961. D. In 2000.
        　　52. What does the underlined word “gene” mean?
        　　A. The “map” of DNA. B. A special language.
        　　C. Small parts of DNA. D. DNA.
        　　53. What did the two scientists first discover in 1961?
        　　A. The “map” of DNA. B. A new illness.
        　　C. The language of DNA. D. A message of DNA.
        　　54. What can we do if we understand some “words” of the language inside the
body?
        　　A. Make people get new jobs. B. Make medicine for illnesses.
        　　C. Make maps of human. D. Make people less attractive.
        　　55. What do people think about this work?
        　　A. It can cause good or bad results. B. It can cause only good results.
        　　C. It can cause good results but won’t work. D. It can cause only bad
results.
        　　B
        　　Twentieth Century Inventions
        　　●●●1903—The first flight succeeded.
        　　In 1900, Wilbur Wright said flight was possible for man. After much work he
and his brother Orville Wright made this dream come true.
        　　On December 17, 1903, the brothers made the first successful airplane
flight on a windy beach at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. The brothers’ plane flew
120 feet. Although the flight lasted only 12 seconds, it moved the course of
history in a new direction.
        　　●●●1935—Nylon was invented.
        　　In 1928, a new chemical lab was opened to make a kind of man-made
materials. Wallace Carothers took part in the team when he was 32 years old.
        　　In 1934, he made fibers (纤维), but the fibers were quite weak. He didn’t
give up. After many experiments, he produced the long and strong fibers in 1935.
They named the fibers “nylon”. Carothers was very satisfied with his work.
        　　Nylon hit the markets in 1939, and quickly became a replacement of silk.
But it was a pity that he didn’t see the wide use of his invention. He died in
April, 1937.
        　　●●●1968—The computer mouse was first shown in public.
        　　As a graduate student, Douglas Engelhard began to imagine ways in which all
sorts of information could be on screens.
        　　In 1964, Douglas Engelhard made the first computer mouse. The computer
mouse had a wooden shell with two metal wheels.
        　　In 1968, the first computer mouse appeared in public. It was named “mouse”
because a tail came out at the end. In later years, the computer mouse became
more and more important.
        　　Douglas Engelhard changed the way that computers worked.
        　　Now computer mice are becoming increasingly useful. And there are many
different shapes of computer mice in the world.
