I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.‎ It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon．‎ The following year, he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s School of Adventure in Scotland, where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future．‎ In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite (冻疮), ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled (雪橇) up and over rocky ice. Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900-kilometer journey that has never been completed on skis.‎ 4. What change happened to Saunders after he was 15 yeas old?‎ A. He became good at most sports. B. He began to build up his body.‎ C. He joined a sports team. D. He made friends with a runner.‎ 5. The underlined word “exploits” (Paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to______.‎ A. journeys B. researches C. adventures D. operations ‎6. Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Saunders?‎ a. He ran his first marathon. ‎ b. He skied alone in the North Pole.‎ c. He rode his bike in a forest. ‎ d. He planned an adventure to the South Pole.‎ ‎ A. acdb B. cdab C. acbd D. cabd ‎7. What does the story mainly tell us about Saunders?‎ ‎ A. He is a success in sports. B. He is the best British skier．‎ ‎ C. He is Ridgway’s favorite student. D. He is good instructor at school．‎ C Americans love peanut butter. The average child will eat 1,500 peanut butter before he or she graduates high school. But there is a controversy over a new peanut butter. It is called STEEM Peanut Butter. This peanut butter adds a new ingredient: caffeine. Coffee is a popular morning drink because it has caffeine and gives people energy in the morning. Even small amounts of caffeine can be dangerous to children.‎ United States Senator (参议员) Charles Schumer says, “Peanut butter, one of the snacks most closely connected with children, might have to be stored in the medicine cupboard rather than in the kitchen cupboard. This will shock the Food and Drug Administration.” Schumer wants the U.S. FDA to investigate. He observed that earlier the FDA prevented plans for a caffeinated chewing gum.‎ STEEM, the manufacturer, said, “We are selling the caffeinated peanut butter all over the world. The product provides caffeine in an easily digestible way. Caffeinated foods have been sold in U.S. stores for well over a decade and are in no way a new idea. Customers tell us they want to eat the ‎ caffeinated peanut butter so they don’t have to drink as much coffee or energy drinks. The peanut butter is not intended for children.”‎ ‎“Peanut butter has been a favorite of children for generations,” Schumer continued, “Parents across the country have to worry about a scene in which their child might unknowingly bite into a peanut butter that contains more caffeine than two cups of coffee.”‎ The American Academy of Pediatrics says caffeine in small amounts can help the physical performance of adults. But the academy urges parents not to allow children to take even small amounts of caffeine owing to caffeine’s possible negative effects on a child’s heart and brain development.‎ 8. There is a controversy over the STEEM Peanut Butter because it contains ______.‎ A. fat B. peanut C. caffeine D. nutrition ‎ ‎9. Charles Schumer suggests that the new peanut butter should be ______.‎ A. kept in the kitchen cupboard B. out of children’s reach C. manufactured in huge quantities D. eaten by children for generations ‎10. According to STEEM, the new peanut butter is popular with adults because______.‎ A. it is a traditional food B. it is digested more easily C. its production is not banned D. they eat it instead of energy drinks ‎11. We can guess from the text that the responsibility of the Food and Drug Administration is to ______.‎ A. introduce new foods and drugs ‎ B. promote the sales of foods and drugs C. guarantee the safety of foods and drugs ‎ D. improve the physical performance of adults ‎ D Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears. ‎ One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it. ‎ ‎ In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn. ‎ ‎ The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood. ‎ ‎ The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development. ‎ ‎12. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?‎ A. People remember well what they learned in childhood. ‎ B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups. ‎ C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words. ‎ D. Stories for children are easy to remember. ‎ ‎13. The author explains the law of overlearning by_________. ‎ A. presenting research findings B. setting down general rules C. making a comparison D. using examples ‎14. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______. ‎ A. a result of overlearning B. a special case of cramming C. a skill to deal with math problems D. a basic step towards advanced studies ‎15. What is the author’s opinion on cramming?‎ A. It leads to failure in college exams. B. It’s helpful only in a limited way. ‎ C. It’s possible to result in poor memory. D. It increases students’ learning interest. ‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题3分， 满分15分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的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。‎ How to Remember What You Read Reading is important.
