And 36 otherwise assignen（指定）a seat by the teacher, I always 37 to sit at the back of the classroom.‎ All this 38 after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy 39 because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the 40 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “ 41 for it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give a try.‎ Getting up t he courage to go to the tryouts was only the 42 of it! When I first started 43 ‎ the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much 44 what I was doing. Sometimes I’d get 45 and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid. 46 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to 47 on learning the game, do my best at each prctice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t 48 “just yet”.‎ I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 49 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and moticating. Very soon the competitive 50 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the 51 — friends who respect my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!‎ With my 52 self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “53” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, 54 ‎ raising my hand — even when I sometimes wasn’t and not 100 percent 55 I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.‎ ‎36. A. as B. until C. unless D. though ‎37. A. hoped B. agreed C. meant D. chose ‎38. A. continued B. changed C. settled D. started ‎39.

I got a taste of that dream in 2011,when my husband arranged for me me ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time ,I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community（社区）announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.‎ In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldn’t believe it. ‎ One june 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasn’t frightened—I was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reachen 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute（降落伞）, then we just floated downward fo zhout five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt—much better than the hot air ballon. I was just enjoying it.[来源:学#科#网Z#X#X#K]‎ Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don’t stop living just because you are 84 years old. If there’s something you want to experience, look into it. If it’s something that is possible, make it happen.‎ ‎56. What happened to the auther in 2001?[来源:学科网ZXXK]‎ A. She flew an airplane B. She entered a competition C.

I also love my laptop computer ，as it holds all of my writing and thought .Despite this love of technology ,I know that there are times when I need to move away from these device and truly communication with others.‎ On occasion ,I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas .Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom ,I have a rule —no laptop ,ipads ,phones ,etc .When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy .‎ Most students assume that year reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology . There’s a bit of truth to that.Some students assume that I am anti-technology . There’s no truth in that at all . I love technology and try to keep up with it so I relate to my students.‎ The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas . I want students to think differently and make connections between the course the material and the class discussion .‎ I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the educations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create .Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge , they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom .‎ I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change ,I’m sticking to my plan. a few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too give up.‎ ‎63.some of the students in the history class were unhappy with____‎ A. the course material B. others’ misuse of technology ‎ C. discussion topics D. the author’s class regulator ‎ ‎64.the underlined word “engage ”in para.4 probably means ____‎ A. explore B. accept C. change D. reject ‎ ‎65.according to the author ,the use of technology in the classroom may ____‎ A. keep students from doing independent thinking ‎ B. encourage students to have in-depth conversations C. help students to better understand complex themes ‎ D. affect students’ concentration on course evaluation ‎66.it can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author ____‎ A. is quite stubborn ‎ B. will give up teaching history ‎ C. will change his teaching plan soon ‎ D. values technology-free dialogues in his class ‎ ‎67.what was the problem caused by the construction of the railways ?‎ A. small towns along the railways became abandoned .‎ B. some railroad stops remained .‎ C. land in the west was hard to manage .‎ D. land grants went into private hands.‎ ‎68.what is the major concern in the development of alternative energy according to the last two paragraphs ?‎ A. the transmission of power B. the use of money and power ‎ C. the conservation of solar energy D. the selection of an ideal place ‎ ‎69.what is the author ‘s attitude towards building solar plants ?‎ A. cautious B. approving C. doubtful D. disapproving ‎ ‎70.which is the best title for the passage ?‎ A. how the railways have affected the west ‎ B. how solar energy could reshape the west ‎ C. how the effects of power plants can be reduced ‎ D. how the problems of the highways have been settled ‎ ‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ A.
