A“I Went Skydiving at 84!”As a young girl growing up in the 1930s, I always wanted to fly a plane, but back then it was almost unheard of a woman to do that. I got a taste of that dream in xx, when my husband arranged for me to 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 munity announced that they were having an essay petition 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 munity party in late April xx, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldnt believe it. One June 11, xx, 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 wasnt frightenedI was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reached 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, then we just floated downward for about five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever feltmuch better than the hot air balloon. I was just enjoying it. Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you dont stop living just because you are 84 years old. If theres something you want to experience, look into it. If its something that is possible, make it happen. 65. What happened to the author in xx?A. She flew an airplaneB. She entered a petitionC.

The one-minute free fallBLlosas Nobel Prize Settles an Old ScoreMario Vargas Llosa, 74, received a phone call early in the morning on October 7 when he was preparing to set out on a walk through Central Park in New York. He was informed that he had won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Initially, however, he thought it was a joke. It was because, as the Peruvian told the BBC, “a writer shouldnt think about the Nobel Prize as it is bad for ones writing”. He told AP that the honor would not affect him. “I dont think the Nobel Prize will change my writing, my style, my themes,” he said. “（But） its a good way to start a New York Day. ”Vargas Llosa is one of the most celebrated writers of the Spanish-speaking world. He has written more than 30 novels, plays and essays, including The Breen House and The War of the End of the World. Both of these are available in Chinese translation. His work “vividly examines the dangers of power and corruption in Latin America”, according to The NEW York Times. Vargas Llosa realized that he wanted to be a writer when he was a child, after reading an adventure novel by Jules Verne. At 15, he was a crime reporter. He later lived in exile in many European countries. In 1990, he ran for the presidency in Peru, but lost badly. On October 7 Vargas Llosa told Reuters that he had never wanted to be a politician but felt it was an obligation for a writer to participate in public debate. ”He is frequently mentioned with Colombian writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the author of the classic work A Hundred Years of Solitude. Garcia Marquez won the literature Nobel in 1982, the last South American to do so. Their relationship has involved one of greatest feuds（不和） in literary history. In a famous 1976 incident at a theater in Mexico City, Vargas Llosa punched Marguea, leaving him with a black eye. The two have reportedly not spoken in decades. After the Nobel announcement, Garcia MARQUEZ wrote “now were even” in Spanish on his microblog. 69. What did Mario Vargas Llosa think was a joke at first?A. Winning the Nobel Prize for literatureB. Thinking the Nobel Prize is bad for ones writingC. What the Peruvian told the BBCD. What a writer should think about the Nobel Prize70.

He ran for the presidency in Peru, but didnt win the election. D. He thought it a duty for a writer to run for the presidency. CAn idea that started in Seattles public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of munity in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time. In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to municate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched （发起）the If All of Seattle Read the Same Book project in xx. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong. In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the One Book, One Chicago program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity can be achieved. Or it may show that New Yorkers missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself. Nancy points out that the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process. or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word. 72. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share. C. To involve people in munity service. D. To promote the friendship between cities. 73. Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?A. They had little interest in reading. B. They were too busy to read a book. C. They came from many different backgroundsD. They lacked support from the local government74. The underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 5 probably meanA. exchanged ideas with each otherB. discussed the meaning of a wordC. gamed life experienceD. used the same language75. According to Nancy, the degree of success of the project is judged by _.A. the careful selection of a proper bookB. the growing popularity of the writersC. the number of people who benefit from readingD. the number of books that each person readsSection CDirections: Read the following
