Jim suffered heart problems. In conversation he expressed little joy and it seemed that his life was drawing to a close.

When his heart problems led to operation, Jim went through it successfully, and a full recovery was expected. Within days, however, his heart was not beating properly. Jim was rushed back to operation, but nothing was found to explain the cause of his illness. He died on the operating table on the day before his 48th birthday.

Dr. Bruce Smoller, a psychologist, had had many conversations with him, and the more he learned, the stranger he realized Jim's case was. When Jim was a child, his father, a teacher, suffered a heart attack and stayed home to recover. One morning Jim asked his father to look over his homework, promising to come home from school at noon to pick it up. His father agreed, but when Jim returned his father had died. Jim's father was 48.

“I think all his life Jim believed he killed his father,” Dr. Smoller says. “He felt that if he had not asked him to look at his homework, his father would have lived. Jim had been troubled by the idea. The operation was the trial he had expected for forty years. “ Smoller believes that Jim willed himself not to live to the age of 48.

   Jim's case shows the powerful role that attitude plays in physical health, and that childhood experiences produce far-reaching effect on the health of grown-ups. Although most cases are less direct than Jim's, studies show that childhood events, besides genes, may well cause such midlife diseases as cancer, heart disease and mental illness.

41. Jim was sent back to operation because ________.

A. his heart didn't work well                B. he expected a full recovery

C. his life was drawing to a close

D. the first one wasn't well performed

42. What made Dr. Smoller feel strange about Jim's case?

A. Jim died at a young age.

B. Jim died on the operating table.

C. Both Jim and his father died of the same disease.

D. Jim's death is closely connected with his father's.

43. From Smoller's words, we can infer that ________.

  A. Jim's father cared little about his study

  B. Smoller agreed that Jim did kill his father

  C. Jim thought he would be punished some day

  D. Smoller believed Jim wouldn't live to the age of 48

44. Which of the following could have strong effect on one's physical health according to the text?

a. One’s genes.     b. One’s life in childhood.    

c. One’s physical education.  d. The date of one’s birthday.   

e. The opinions one has about something.

A. a, b, d                  B. a, b, e               C. a, c, e               D. b, c, d

45. Which of the following is true?

A. Both Jim and his father died at the age of 48.

B. Jim often asked his father to do his homework.

C. Jim was believed to kill his father.

D. Most childhood events can cause cancer, heart disease and mental illness.

Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.

My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.

On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical(挑剔的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?

The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.

56. Why did the author feel bitter about her father when she was a young adult?

   A. He was silent most of the time.                B. He was too proud of himself.

   C. He did not love his children.                    D. He expected too much of her.

57. When the author went out with her father on weekends, she would feel ______.

   A. nervous                 B. sorry                       C. tired             D. safe

58. What does the author think of her father after her visit to Tucson?

   A. More critical.             B. More talkative.  C. Gentle and friendly.

       D. Strict and hard-working.

59. The underlined words “my new friend” in the last paragraph refer to ______.

   A. the author’s son                                      B. the author’s father

BRISBANE—Australian Olympic chief John Coates has said Greek athlete Katerina Thanou should not be awarded the Sydney Olympics 100 metres gold medal handed back by Marion Jones.

Jones, who this week admitted to steroid(類固醇)use in the build up to the Sydney Games, has returned the three gold medals and two bronzes she won in 2000.

But Thanou, the silver medalist in Sydney, was herself banned for two years after she failed to appear for a drug test at the 2004 Athens Olympics.

“I’d like to think that Katerina Thanou would not be awarded the gold medal,” Coates told the Australian Associated Press on Tuesday, “but there may be some legal difficulties for the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to overcome in order to reach that conclusion.”

Jamaica’s Tayna Lawrence won the 100m bronze medal in Sydney behind Jones and Thanou.

Coates also said he expected the United States Olympic Committee (USOC) to hand back the medals won by the women's 4x100m and 4x400m relay teams.

Two of Jones’s team mates in the 4x100m team which finished third in Sydney, Torri Edwards and Chryste Gaines, have also served doping(興奮劑)bans.

The U.S. women’s 4x100m relay team won the gold medal ahead of Jamaica and Russia.

“On the relays, it’s my expectation that the United States Olympic Committee will be required to also hand back the medals won by the other ladies who competed with Jones in the two relays,” Coates said.

“That is normal practice.”

The United States Olympic Committee (USCO) has publicly apologized to the organizers and competitors of the 2000 Sydney Games and the Australian public for Jones’s actions.

As part of the USOC’s apology, president Peter Ueberroth promised that the U.S. would send a clean team to next year’s Beijing Olympics.

1. What is the best title of the passage?

  A. Jones has returned the Sydney medals

  B. Thanou should not receive Sydney gold

2. Thanou should not get the Sydney gold medal because________.

  A. she didn’t pass the drug test.

  B. she served doping ban at Sydney Olympics.

  C. she didn’t take the drug test at Sydney Olympics.

  D. she ran second at Sydney Olympics.

3. Which of the following statements is True?

  A. Jones has got five gold medals at Sydney Olympics.

  B. The USCO has returned medals in the two relays.

  C. Thanou should receive Sydney gold medal.

  D. Jones also took part in the women’s 4x100m relay race.

4. Why did Coates expect the USOC to hand back the medals won in the relay races?

  A. Because the IOC required them to do so.

  B. Because they didn’t take the first place in the relay races.

  C. Because some of the runners of the U.S served doping bans.

  D. Because they felt sorry for Jones’s actions.

5. What would probably happen next according to the passage?

  A. Thanou would receive Sydney gold.

  B. Jamaica’s Tayna Lawrence would receive Sydney gold.

C. Thanou wouldn’t be allowed to take part in the Beijing Olympics.

D. Fewer or no American athletes will serve doping drugs in Beijing Olympics.
