The bridge was completed in 1883, after 13 years. In 1869, a creative engineer named John Roebling was 16 by an idea
7、 to build a spectacular bridge 17 New York with the Long Island. 18 , bridge-building experts throughout the world thought that this was impossible and told Roebling to forget the idea.Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. After much discussion and persuasion he 19
8、to convince his son Washington, an up and coming engineer, that the bridge 20 could be built. The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway, a tragic accident took the life of John Roebling. Washington was also injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which 21 h
9、im not being able to talk or walk. 22 his handicap, Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning 23 to complete the bridge and his mind was still as 24 as ever. He didnt want to 25 . Suddenly an idea 26 him. All he could do was move one 27 and he decided to make the best use of it. By mo
10、ving this, he 28 developed a code of communication with his wife.For 13 years Washington tapped out his 29 with his finger on his wifes arm, until the bridge was finally completed. Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands for his determination not to be 30 by circumstances. It stands too as a mo
11、nument to the love and 31 of his wife who for 13 years long 32 decoded(解码)the messages of her husband and told the engineers what to do.Perhaps this is one of the best examples of a never-say-die attitude that overcomes a terrible physical handicap and achieves a(n) 33 goal. Often when we face obsta
12、cles in our day-to-day life, our hurdles(障碍) seem very small in comparison to what many others have to face. The Brooklyn Bridge shows us that 34 that seem impossible can be realized with determination and persistence(坚持), no matter what the 35 are.11A. inspiredB. promotedC. awarded D. presented12A.

16、 are busy filling out the application form for a position you really need; lets assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isnt it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma(毕业文凭) represents a Harvard degree
17、? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University?More and more people are turning to an utter deception(欺骗) like this to land their first job or to move head in their careers. For personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may
18、have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars(注册主任)at most well-known colleges say that they deal with dishonest claims like these at the rate of about one per week.Personnel officers do check up on
19、degrees listed on application forms. If it turns out that an applicant is lying, most colleges are unwilling to accuse the applicant directly. One lvy League school refers to them as “special cases”, One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says these claims are
20、made by “no such people”.To avoid complete lies, some job seekers claim that they “attended” or “were associated with” a college or university. After careful checking, a personnel officer may discover that “attending” means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that “being as sociated with”
21、a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the centurythats when they began keeping records, anyhow.If you dont want to lie or even stretch the truth,
22、there are companies that will sell you a fake diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of non-existent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from “Smoot State University”. The prices increase rap
23、idly for a degree from the “University of Purdue”. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.31The writer mainly wants to tell us that _.A. college degrees can now be purchased easilyB. it is ver
24、y hard for people to find jobsC. lying about college degrees is becoming a widespread problemD. employers are no longer interested in applicants actual performances32The underlined word “utter” in the second paragraph means “_”.A. thoroughB. carefulC. incompleteD. spoken33Once finding applicants wit
25、h false diplomas, most colleges would _.A. keep the records of themB. drive them out of collegeC. avoid direct conflicts with themD. accuse them of such behavior34We can learn from the passage that _.A. US employers value their job applicants with a degree from top universitiesB. University of Purdu
26、e and Purdue University are the same schoolC. people with fake diplomas can get their first jobs in the US easilyD. people pay the same price for a fake diploma from different universitiesIf cars had wings, they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2012. The company Terrafugia, based i
27、n Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to deliver its car-plane, the Transition, to customers by the end of 2012.“Its next wow vehicle,” said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh. “Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris dont fly.”The car-plane has wings that unfold for flying-a proces
28、s the company says takes one minute-and fold back up for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land.The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the
29、National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airpor
30、ts: You drive the car to the airport and then youre good to go. When you land, you hold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you dont have to store it at an airport-you park it in the garage at home.The car-plane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. I
31、t has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers. Thrrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowing pilots to drive under the bad weather instead of flying into marginal(临界的) conditions.The Transitions price tag: $194,000. But there may be
32、additional charges for options like a radio, , a transponder or a GPS. Another option is a full-plane parachute.“If you get into a very awful situation, it is the necessary safety option.” Gersh said.So far, the company has more than 70 orders with deposits. “Were working very closely with them, but
33、 there are still some remaining steps,” Brown said.35We can learn from the first two paragraphs that _.A. car-planes will be popular in 2012-4-6B. people might drive a car-plane in 2012C. both the Transition and Ferrari can take off and landD. Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts36It
34、 takes the car-plane one minute to _. A. fold and unfold its wingsB. unfold wings for flyingC. land in the airportD. meet flying safety regulations37According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. The car-plane needs a runway to take off and land.B. To meet aircraft regulations, the
35、 company has been working with FAA.C. The car-plane may fly as high as normal planes.D. People can park the car-plane in the garage at their home.Angry survivors demanded answers on Sunday after a terrible stampede(踩踏)at “Love Parade 2010”, a music festival in Germany, killed 19 people and left hund
36、reds hurt. The German Chancellor Angela Merkel expressed her shock over Saturdays tragedy in the western city of Duisburg. “This was a very sad day,” Merkel said. “We must do everything we can to ensure that something like this never happens again.” Witnesses said that people pushed into the narrow
37、tunnel, the only entrance to the Love Parade festival, from both sides until it was dangerously overcrowded. The panic began as festival-goers began to lose consciousness as they were crushed against the walls and each other. The dead included eight foreigners, from Australia, Italy, the Netherlands
38、, China, Bosnia and Spain. More than 340 people were injured. After the panic, a lot of emergency vehicles, including helicopters, could be seen parked on the highway leading to helicopters, could be seen parked on the highway leading to the festival site, carrying away the injured people. The festi
39、val itself, however, went on. Police were afraid that ending the music altogether could cause further unrest among the crowd. “The event was a real mess,” Patrick Guenter, a 22-year-old baker, said. “Although the festival was full, they kept letting people in.” he added. “It seems the organizers did
40、nt plan the route. The road was very narrow, and no one knew what was going on.” Said Taggart Bowen-Gaddy,20,an American from Philadelphia. Officials said 4,000 police officers and 1,000 security guards provided security for the event, which attracted up to 1.4 million people. The authorities had on
41、ly given organizers permission for 250,000 people to attend.“I warned one year ago that Duisburg was not a suitable place for the Love Parade. The city is too small and narrow for such events. It is a pity that” German police union chief Rainer Wendt told the Bild.The chief organizer, Rainer Schalle
42、r, said the popular event would never be held again, “out of respect for the victims and their families”.First held in Berlin in 1989 just months before the fall of the Wall, the Love Parade is one of the biggest music festivals in Europe. It left Berlin from 2007 onwards after disagreements with th
43、e city authorities over security and has been held in several other German cities in recent years.38How did the German Chancellor Angela Merkel feel about the tragedy?A. Very disappointed.B. Angry and surprised.C. Very puzzled.D. Touched.39According to Patrick Gunter and Taggart Bowen-Gaddy, _. A. t
44、he event was well-organizedB. the performance was wonderfulC. Duisburg was suitable for the Love ParadeD. the organization was very bad40We can infer that _.A. Rainer Wendts warning went unnoticedB. Rainer Wendt was a chief organizer of Love Parade 2010C. Rainer Wendt is a music loverD. Duisburg is
45、a famous holiday destination41We can learn from the passage that _. A. the Love Parade has been canceled foreverB. the Love Parade is a very popular sport eventC. the festival was ended shortly after the panicD. the Love Parade has a history of over 30 yearsMost people watching Jeremy Lin these past
46、 two months saw Jeremy Lin, New York Knicks star; but I, watching him, saw someone else. That was my elder brother, Bob, who is athletic and energetic. He could never sit still when he was in second grade; he had to get up every now and then and run around the room. And sure enough, he grew up to be
47、 a starting player for an N.C.A.A. championship lacrosse(长曲棍球)team. He was a Nike-endorsed marathoner, too, and reached the top of Mt. Everest, unguided, in his 50s.And yet my family never watched his lacrosse games. We did watch some of his marathons, but that wasnt until he was in his 20s. When Bob was in his glory
