14．Teofilo Stevenson was born in 1952 and grew up in a small town in Cuba．He started boxing as a teenager and，when he was 13，went to Havana to train at the national sports complex．"I lost 14 of my first 20 fights，"said Stevenson．"I hated getting hit．What happened was that I decided I hated losing even more．"
When he was just 20，Teofilo went to the Olympic Games in Germany and won a gold medal．He was tall and powerful with a long"reach"．His long arms could hit opponents （對手） before they could hit him．At the Games in Canada in 1976 he won the gold again．In the ring，boxers were afraid of Teofilo，they tried to stay away from him and not get too close to his powerful punches （拳）．He won another gold medal in Moscow in 1980．Only two of the fights he had at the Olympic Games lasted for the full three rounds．That means he either knocked his opponents to the floor and they were counted out or the referee stopped the fight because it was dangerous for the other boxer．
Stevenson was such a good boxer that people wanted him to turn professional．After he had won his first gold medal，managers and famous promoters started to offer him money to fight around the world．Teofilo turned them all down．He wanted to stay in Cuba and didn't want to fight for money or fame．
Lots of people think that Teofilo Stevenson was as good as the famous boxer Muhammad Ali，but the two fighters never fought each other．They did meet outside the ring and the two men are now friends．Teofilo thinks"it would have been a draw"if they had fought．
Teofilo now works for the Cuban Ministry of Sport and he is also the vice president of the Cuban Boxing Federation．He likes spending his time with his family and he is still regarded as a legend （傳奇） around the world．

    C．thought the fight with Muhammad Ali would be dull
    D．predict that he would lose the fight with Muhammad Ali

8．Every year，millions of Americans see their personal information leak into the wrong hands．Maybe there's spyware on the their computer，or a service they use suffered a security reach，leaving customers at the risk of exposure．Or perhaps their password is easy to guess．
Don't fear：You can easily set up proper defenses．Here's how．
●Clean Your Computer and Smartphone
Before you put new security measures into place，make sure your devices are as spotless as possible．This means installing a good antivirus program and taking the time to clear out any spy-or malware that may have already infected your system．These days，it's also worth it to make sure your phone is safe from viruses．Iphones are less likely to be targeted by spyware，but Android users should download the Lookout app to scan their devices and ensure everything is as it should be．
●Secure Your WiFi．
It's fairly easy for potential criminals to gain access to your information if they're able to share your connection-that's why you want to be careful when using public WiFi．Even though you put security measures into place a couple of years ago，it's a good idea to refresh your settings．
●Use passwords
What you've heard is true：Passwords should use a variety of special characters，numerals，letters，and cases when possible．
●Check the shopping security
Take care when shopping online．Always check the security symbols when using an online site for shopping．If the lock icon encryption （加密）  is not there，do not give out credit details．Also，check that the site is legal-never go to a site from a random email and start shopping online．
Keep a separate credit card just for online shopping．This will make it easier to cancel if something bad does happen and your other credit card for"in real life"can still be used uninfluenced．
Don't store information on any store's website．It may be convenient but it's also a possible loss to you if the site is hacked．

21．To put new security measures into place，we need toC．
A．clear out everything in the system
B．make a random selection of network
C．get rid of potential spyware
D．refresh the infected system
22．According to the passage，the risk of exposing personal information may possibly be caused byB．
A．the applications of antivirus programs
B．the practice of using public WiFi
C．the difficult access to passwords
D．the separate credit card for online shopping
23．Which of the following is an improper way to shop online？D
A．Adopting a unique password for every website．
B．Shopping online at reliable websites．
C．Keeping credit details safe by checking security symbols．
D．Monitoring credit card by storing information online．

2．I had a terrible accident and was transferred via a helicopter to the Pittsburgh Hospital．I was conscious of my accident and friends，and family passing out at the sight of me．It was no picnic!
Late one evening，I could hear the nurses in the next room repeatedly talking to a new patient．"Sandy，your mom is here．Open your eyes．"This had gone on throughout the night．"Sandy，your dad has some flowers for you．Open your eyes and look at them．"I asked the nurse as she checked in on me what had happened to Sandy．The nurse said that Sandy was about 17and had been involved in a car wreck．She was in a deep coma （昏迷），not in good shape．Over the next few nights，I started talking to Sandy．Although，it was said silently，I started to urge her to open her eyes or say something．Her parents visited with me one evening，and they seemed to be from an important family but in much grief，much like the faces of those that had visited me．And there I was speechless，immobile and had no real way of easing （減輕）their pain．It became very important to me to pray for her recovery，not my own．In some strange way，I believed that if Sandy would just open her eyes，my own situation would get better．
Sandy never came out of the coma as far as I know．During my stay in hospital，there were many times I felt like I was in an emotional coma．But I still could hear"just open your eyes．"Even now I think of her quite often．I remember the long nights in the hospital，the smell of the hospital environment and the helplessness we all felt．Even though Sandy's situation was bad，I am thankful for understanding what it means to let go of your own problems and concentrate on others．

39．The nurses repeatedly said"Open your eyes"to Sandy，tryingD
A．to help her recognize her parents

A．Emotional．
B．Kind．
C．Brave．
D．Patient．
42．According to the author，we shouldCwhen we all have problems．
A．show our care to the unlucky with problems
B．try to learn something from these problems
C．focus on others'than on our own

19．Companies trying to market products to mothers need to head onto the Internet with a survey showing the mothers today are online daily，using Facebook to connect to friends and Google to diagnose（診斷）illnesses．
A survey by parenting website BabyCenter．corn found 63% of online mothers now use social media networks such as Facebook regularly，compared to only 11% three years ago．"They don't watch TV as much，they are not reading magazines as much，but instead they check Facebook where people are really drawn together over parenting questions，"BabyCenter's Editor-in-Chief Linda said．"One of the major activities is looking for comments on products．They are information seeking，particularly when it comes to babies，and companies need to realize this．"
Companies also need to know their market well as mothers are sharing information-and complaints-online regularly．
A drug company learned the hard way last November when online mothers found an ad targeting moms to be offensivedl（冒犯的），which result in a hot debate on the micro-blogging site Twitter．The company had to take the video ad down from its website and apologized for any offense caused．
The online survey also found that mothers aren't going to the doctor as often．Instead they are using the Internet to find out what is wrong with their children and，when they do go to the doctor，asking which drug they should use rather than for a diagnosis．In online communities children's health issues are the leading topic of interest rating as high as 91 percent followed by childhood development tips at 79 percent and product reviews at 72 percent．

6．Conservationists have unveiled plans to preserve and protect the world's most important species of coral，in a response to increasing threats that they say will lead to"functional extinction"within decades．
Led by scientists at the Zoological Society of London，the Edge Coral Reefs project has identified 10coral species in most urgent risk of becoming extinct．The scientists say that reefs are under pressure from a variety of threats including rising sea temperatures due to climatic instability，increased acidity（酸性），over fishing and pollution．
The Edge plan，which focuses on the most evolutionarily distinct and globally endangered species，will take a regional approach to conservation．This means focusing on the"coral triangle"around the Philippines，the West Indian Ocean around the Mozambique channel，and in the Caribbean channel．
"Coral reefs are threatened with functional extinction in the next 20-50years，due predominantly to global climatic instability，"said Catherine Head，coordinator of the reefs project．"In these regions，we'll be supporting and training in-country conservationists to carry out research and implement targeted conservation actions，"she said．"Their projects will last initially for two years．We provide them with a whole host of tools to carry out their projects including funding and intensive training．"She added．
Coral reefs are the planet's most diverse marine ecosystem（生態(tài)系統(tǒng)），known as the rainforests of the oceans．Despite taking up under 0.2% of the ocean floor，they provide food and shelter for almost a third of all sea life．If we lose the ecosystems，we lose not only the biodiversity （生物多樣性），but we also lose the capability of people to obtain income and food from coral reefs．
Climatic instability，which leads to rising sea temperatures，causes corals to bleach．Bleaching occurs when sea temperatures rise and this causes the coral tissue to expel their symbiotic algae called zooxanthellae-these are what give the coral their colour．Bleached corals often die if the stress continues．Among the 10species chosen to start the Edge project are the pearl bubble coral，a food source for the hawksbill（玳瑁）turtle，and the Mushroom coral，which supports at least 15brightly colored fish．

41．What does the first paragraph mean in the passage？C
A．Conservationists planned to preserve and protect some extinct corals years ago．
B．Conservationists have banned plans to protect endangered corals for years．
C．Conservationists are going to protect corals that are dying out in several ten years．
D．Conservationists have made plans to protect corals from being extinct in ten years．
42．What will probably happen to coral species with the increasing threats？C
A．Decrease．   B．Losing functions． C．Disappearance． D．Existence．
43．Which of the following statements about the Edge Plan is TRUE？D
A．The Edge Coral Reefs project was carried out by American scientists．
B．The plan concentrates on the channels to protect the endangered species．
C．The Conservationists have carried out the Edge plan for many years to protect the corals．
D．Ten coral species chosen by the project are at the greatest risk of becoming extinct．
44．Which of the following will be the consequence of coral extinction in the passage？B
A．We will keep me balance of the marine ecosystems．
B．About one third of the marine species can't survive．
C．Man can benefit more from corals．
D．We will lose the rainforests on our earth．
45．What is the best title of the passage？C
A．Climatic Instability and Coral Extinction．
B．Reasons for Coral Functional Extinction．
C．A Plan to Save Coral from Extinction．
D．A Research about Endangered Coral Reefs．
