Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body, I also had to deal with my parents bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded town.When we moved, my beloved panion, a small brown pony had to be sold. I was heartbroken and terribly lonely. I couldnt eat or sleep and cried all the time. Finally, realizing how much I missed my pony, my father bought me another horse, Cowboy.Cowboy was without doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didnt care. I loved him beyond all reasons.I joined a riding club. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse was judged by appearance, we were quickly ”shown the gate”. I knew nothing could turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to pete would be in the timed speed events. I chose the jumping race.For the whole next month we practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home, totally exhausted.All of our hard work didnt make me feel confident by the time the show came. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. I sat at the gate and sweated all out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the court and finish in first place.My turn finally came. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped over it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.No cheers filled the air. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds.I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds, Id always e out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the owner of my fate.25Why did the author like Cowboy so much in spite of its ugliness?A. Because she loved horses more than anything else.B.

Cowboy lost in the event of being judged by appearanceD. both Becky and the author won in the jumping eventDDear Guys,Id like to talk to you about the shame you subjected me to last night. Let me first refresh your memory: You, a group of fit, young men, were playing soccer on the field across from my apartment building. I, a better-than-average looking young woman, was walking along the sidewalk with my groceries. Thats when your ball came flying over the fence and landed in front of me.One of you approached and asked politely if I would throw the ball back to you. Fighting the urge to drop my bags and run screaming down the street, I reluctantly (勉强地) agreed.Before I continue, let me explain something that I didnt have a chance to mention last night: I hate sports. More specifically, I hate sports involving balls. This results from my lack of natural ability when it es to throwing, catching and hitting. Im bad at aiming too. So you can understand why Id be nervous at what Im sure seemed to you like a laughably simple request.However, wanting to appear agreeable, I put my bags down, picked up the ball and, eyes half-shut, and threw it as hard as I could.It hit the middle of the fence and bounced back to me.Trying to act casually, I said something about being out of practice, and then picked up the ball again. If youll remember, at your mand, I agreed to try throwing underhand. While outwardly I was smiling, in my head, I was praying, oh God, oh please oh please oh please. I threw the ball upward with all my strength, terrified by what happened next.The ball hit slightly higher up on the fence and bounced back to me.This is the point where I start to take issue with you. Wouldnt it have been a better use of your time, and mine, if you had just walked around the fence and took the ball then? I was clearly struggling; my smiles were more and more forced. And yet, you all just stood there, motionless.Seeing that you werent going to let me out of the trouble, I became desperate. Memories of middle school softball came flooding back. I tried hard to throw the ball but it only went about eight feet, then I decided to pick it up and dash with ball in hand towards the baseline, while annoyed thirteen-year-old boys screamed at me that I was ruining their lives. Children are cruel.Being a big girl now, I pushed those memories aside and picked up the soccer ball for the third time. I forced a good-natured laugh while crying inside as you patiently shouted words of support over the fence at me.“Throw it granny-style!” one of you said.“Just back up a little and give it all youve got!” another offered.And, most embarrassing of all, “You can do it!”I know you thought you were being encouraging, but it only served to deepen the shame.Anyway, I accepted your ball-throwing advice, backed up, rocked back and forth a little, took a deep breath and let it fly.It hit the edge of the fence and bounced back to me.I surprised myselfand Im sure you as wellby letting out a cry, “DAMN IT!” I then willed myself to have a heart attack and pass out in front of you just so Id be put out of my misery.Alas, the heart attack didnt happen, and you continued to look at me expectantly, like you were content to do this all night. I had bee a sort of exhibition for you. I could feel your collective thoughts drifting through the chain-link: “Can she really not do it? But I mean, really?”Unfortunately for you, I wasnt really game to continue your experiment. Three failed attempts at a simple task in front of a group of people in a two-minute period were just enough blows for me for one night. I picked up the ball one last time, approached the fence and grumbled, “Please just e get the damn ball.”And you did. And thanks to you, I decided at that very moment to never throw anything ever again, except disrespectful glances at people who play sports.Sincerely, Jen Cordery29The writer agreed to throw the ball because _.A. she needed to have a relax carrying the heavy groceriesB. she wanted to refresh her childhood memoriesC. she could not refuse the polite request from the young manD. she had fallen in love with the young man at first sight30Which of the following is closet in meaning to the underlined word “game”?A. anxious B. brave C. afraid D. curious31Why did the writer mention her middle school memory?A.

A spokesman for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.Professor John Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecturer at St Andrews University, said his first-year lectures-which are open to students from all departments-were drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasnt traditionally done.” He said.University applications rose 7% last year, but there were rises above average in several subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with peoples renewed interest in careers in the public sector(部门), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.Zack Hocking, the head of Child Trust Funds, said: “Its possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation thats financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”35Professor John Beaths lectures are_ .A. given in a traditional wayB. connected with the present situationC. open to both students and their parentsD. warmly received by economics36Careers in the public sector are more attractive because of their_ .A. greater stability B. higher payC. fewer applications D. better reputation37In the opinion of most parents, _ .A.economics should be the focus of school teachingB.more students should be admitted to universitiesC.the teaching of financial matters should be strengthened.D.children should solve financial problems themselves38According to Hocking, the global economic crisis might make the youngsters_ .A. wiser in money managementB. have access to better equipmentC. confident about their future careersD. get jobs in Child Trust Funds39 Whats the main idea of the text?A.

Afterward I asked the drama teacher any of my English teachers are still there. Irene Roberts, he tells me, is in the class down the hall.I was no one special in Miss Roberts class just another student who did okay work. I dont recall any one special bit of wisdom she passed on.
