They wanted to play for 90 hours and add 6 hours to the record. Each team had 9 players, with 5 at a time. The boys decided each person would play 21.5 hours and then rest for 2 hours. Then they started at 6 oclock in the evening. The first night was very hard for the players. When it was their turn to rest, they were too excited to fall asleep at once. After sleeping for a short time, they had to play again. On the second night, they fell asleep as soon as they stopped, Some of them had trouble with their feet and hands, but the only serious problem was a psychological（心理学的）one. Each boy was thinking: Why am I doing this? How can I play any longer? After the third night, the players knew they could finish the 90 hours. The basketball on the fourth night was very slow. But in the final hours, the players got better. For the last few minutes, the players looked as fresh as when they started.

I began to live in London 25 years ago. If I am asked now where I want to live forever, I would say London. But I will always be American.2San Francisco, like London, has many parks. Every day my sisters and I were taken to play in the parks as children. I didnt go to school. I only had three hours of formal education when I was five. I was sent to school in the morning but came home at noon on the first day. I said I didnt enjoy it and hadnt learned anything. My parents thought that school was unsuitable for me. They agreed with me, so I never went back to school.Then my mother taught me and my two sisters at home, in the way of an English lady who had good education. We learned languages and reading more than sciences and maths. Sometimes she taught us herself, but we also had other teachers. They asked us to take lessons every day. About once a week we walked to Golden Gate Park. While we were walking, my mother taught me to read music. One day I noticed a little toy train in the window of a shop and I remember now how Id like to have it. I couldnt say r when I was small. My mother said if I could say an r well, I would have the toy train. I practiced and practiced. Then one morning I woke everybody up with my rs. I got the toy train. I usually get the things I want in life but I work hard for them.8. The writer _A. was born in San Francisco B. likes living in LondonC. is living in New York now D. doesnt like America9. The writer didnt go to school in America because _A. his mother wanted him to go to school in EnglishB. his parents didnt think formal education was right for himC. his mother wanted him to play outdoors in the parksD. he couldnt get on well with the other children10. Which of the following is TRUE?A. The writer was taught by his mother and other teachers.B. The writer had no education at all.C. The writer didnt have lessons every day.D. The writer walked to the park to learn languages once a week.11. The writer got the little toy train at last because _A. his mother gave him the moneyB. he tried his best to read musicC. he wanted it very muchD. his mother was pleased with his progress DWe know the famous onesthe Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bellsbut what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper (雨刮器)? Shouldn t we know who they are?3Joan Mclean thinks so. In fact, Mclean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that shes developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”, however, Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why” and “how” questions. According to Mclean, “When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”Her students agree. One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLeans statement. “If I had not heard the story of the windshield wipers invention，” said Tommy Lee, a senior physics major.“I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rain storm into something so meaningful.” Lee is currently negotiating(商谈) to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well, Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldnt be a builtin device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started working out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever (操作杆) on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper.Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations.(创新） Its hard to imagine driving without Garrett AMorgans traffic light. Its equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine JBlodgetts innovation that makes glass invisible. 12. By mentioning “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”, the author indicates that countless inventions are_Abeneficial, though their inventors are less famousBbeneficial, because their inventors are famousCnot useful, because their inventors are less famousDnot useful, though their inventors are famous13. Professor Joan McLeans course aims to_Aadd color and variety to studentscampus lifeBprepare students to try their own inventionCcarry out the requirements by Mountain UniversityDinform students of the windshield wiper s invention14. Tommy Lees invention of the unbreakable umbrella was_Anot eventually accepted by the umbrella producer4Bnot related to Professor Joan McLeans lecturesCdue to his dream of being caught in a rainstormDinspired by the story behind the windshield wiper15. Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?A. How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?BHow to Design a Builtin Device for Cleaning the Window?CShouldnt We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?DShouldnt We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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 Make FriendsFriendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends.
