A big fellow can 26 in a man in two bites (咬).
That woman’ s husband crossed rivers 27 from one crocodile’ s back to the next. I believe it. It had to be done quickly before the creature could see what was happening. It wasn’ t 28 a brave, active man;and no doubt he improved with practice. He could never look 29 while crossing.
The wife used to watch him—I felt sure of that. She lived 30 the adventure, the 31 excitement of it all. Their real life was with tigers,snakes".It’s no wonder she wrote 32 poetry.

阅读下列短文，然后根据短文的内容从 62～65 小题的四个选择项中选出最佳的一项。
D
While acting may run in the family,it wasn't Angelina Jolie's only choice when thinking about her future. Although Jolie has studied her craft（技艺）since childhood,at one point the 26-year-old,who stars this month in Tomb Raider with her father,actor John Voight,wanted to be a funeral（殡葬）director.“I thought that the crossing over could be a beautiful thing and a time of comfort when people could reach out to each other.”
Tradition（传统）is always attractive and interesting to Jolie,who moved with her mother,Marcheline Bertand,and brother after her parents separated when she was two.“I never had one home. I never had an attic（阁楼）that had old things in it. We always moved,so I was never rooted anywhere. And I always dreamed of having that attic of things that I could go back and have a look. I'm very drawn to some things that are tradition,that are roots,and I think that may be why I paid such special attention to funerals.”
Finally,she chose acting.“Following in my father's footsteps,”she says,“is an interesting thing,because I think we speak to each other through our work. You don't really know your parents in a certain way,and they don't really know you. So he can watch a film and see how I am as a woman,the way I’m dealing with a husband who's been hurt,or the way I'm crying alone.”
“And it's the same for me：I can watch films of his and just see who he is. I've learned to understand him as a person.”
第 62 题 The passage is about a woman who _______.
A．was once a funeral director
B．is the leading actress in Tomb Raider
C．wants an attic to live in
D．was hurt by her husband
Passage Four(36~40) One of Britain’s bravest women told yesterday how she helped to catch suspected (可疑的) police killer David Bieber—and was thanked with flowers by the police. It was also said that she could be in line for a share of up to the ￡30,000 reward money。
Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in ending the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Bieber’s bedroom and to watch him secretly. Then she waited alone for three hours while armed police prepared to storm the building。
She said: “I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in the car park I was so glad they were there. ”
The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious (怀疑) of the guest who checked in at 3 pm the day before New Year’s Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face. She said: “He didn’t seem to want to talk too much and make any eye contact (接触). ” Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her boss Margaret, 64, and husband Stan McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 pm。
Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 pm to make sure that this was the wanted man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki every 15 minutes。
“It was about ten past two in the morning when the phone went again and a policeman said ’Would you go and make yourself known to the armed officers outside？’ My heart missed a beat. ”
Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers through passages and staircases to the top floor room and handed over the key。
“I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that part of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see into the man’s room, but I could see the passage. The police kept shouting at the man to come out with his hands showing. Then suddenly he must have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was handcuffed (带上手铐). ”
第36题：The underlined phrase “be in line for” (paragraph 1) means 。
A. get B. be paid C. ask for D. own

Last summer I found, in the rock garden, a tiny little plant that I could not immediatelyrecognize. I knew I didn&39; t plant it and Denise said she didn&39; t either. We decided to let it continuegrowing until we could find out what it was.
Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the strange plant, it appeared to&39;be a sunflower. Itlooked thin and tall with only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed(除草) around it.As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The sunflower hadnot started where I saw it begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.
If a tiny little sunflower didn&39; t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have theability to do the same thing. If we believe in ourselves like that little sunflower, we can reach wherewe aim to go and get what we need for growth.
We need to believe in ourselves knowing we have the ability to achieve our goals. Like thesunflower, it knew it had the ability to get over the rocks because it had faith in itself that it wouldsucceed. Stand tall like the sunflower and be proud of who and what we are,then other things will beginto support us. We will find a way to go under or around any "rocks" in order to realize our goals.

At the beginning, Rose realized the only thing that could stop her was fear of ,failure. "I couldhear my friends and family saying, 'Why did you leave a good job？' If I failed, would I be okay facing them？ And: t thought, 'So what？ I can go back for further study in medicine.' I started to accept that it would be okay to say, 'I failed, but I tried.' Once I was comfortable with that th6fight, the fear came to an end. I realized I feared regret more than failure. And after you turn to the path you choose, there is nothing acceptable but Success"
Now, Rose has no regrets about leaving medicine. "What I'm doing is not all that different from: what I Was doing as a doctor. The goal is the same: to relieve (减轻) pain. A former professor told me: 'You're helping hundreds of thousands of women with your shoes. As a doctor, you would have helped only the few who went to your office. You're having a much greater effect.'
Looking back, Rose admits she caught a couple of lucky breaks. "To me, luck is about being prepared for those opportunities (机会) that come knocking. You have to have an open mind, the right skilis and all your senses working 'to see what opportunities present themselves. Luck can open the door, but you still have to walk through it."
36. Before starting:her shoe business, Taryn Rose was a _
A. nurse B. worker C. doctor D. boss

Steel has given that 20-hour figure when describing her“exhausting”process in the past:“I start thebook and don 't leave my desk until the first draft is finished.”She goes from bed，to desk，to bath，tobed，avoiding all contact aside from phone calls with her nine children."I don 't comb my hair for weeks,”she says.Meals are brought to her desk，where she types until her fingers swell and her nails bleed.The business news website Quartz held Steel up as an inspiration，writing that if only we all followedher“actually extremely liberating"example of industrious sleeplessness，we would be quick to see results.well，indeed.With research results showing the cumulative effects of sleep loss and its impact onproductivity，doubt has been voiced about the accuracy of Steel's self-assessment.Her output may beundeniable，but sceptics have suggested that she is guilty of erasing the role of ghostwriters (代笔人) atworst，gross exaggeration at best.
Steel says working 20 hours a day is “pretty brutal physically.”But is it even possible？“No,”saysMaryanne Taylor of the Sleep Works. While you could work that long，the impact on productivity wouldmake it hardly worthwhile. If Steel was routinely sleeping for four hours a night，she would be drasticallyunderestimating the negative impact，says Alison Gardiner，founder of the sleep improvement programmeSleepstation.“It's akin to being drunk.”
lt's possible that Steel is exaggerating the demands of her schedule. Self-imposed sleeplessness has“become a bit of a status symbol", says Taylor， a misguided measure to prove how powerful and productive you are.Margaret Thatcher was also said to get by on four hours a night，while the 130-hour work weeksendured by tech heads has been held up as key to their success.
That is starting to change with increased awareness of the importance of sleep for mental health.“People are starting to realise that sleep should not be something that you fit in between everything else,"says Taylor .
But it is possible—if statistically extremely unlikely—that Steel could be born a “short sleeper”withan unusual body clock，says sleep expert Dr. Sophie Bostock." It's probably present in fewer than 1% ofthe population.”
Even if Steel does happen to be among that tiny minority，says Bostock，it's “pretty irresponsible”tosuggest that 20-hour days are simply a question of discipline for the rest of us.
46. What do we learn from the passage about Glamour magazine readers？

D)They are highly motivated by Danielle Steel's unusual productivity.47. What did the business news website Quartz say about Danielle Steel？
A) She could serve as an example of industriousness.
B) She proved we could liberate ourselves from sleep.
C) She could be an inspiration to novelists all over the world.
D) She showed we could get all our work done without sleep.48. What do sceptics think of Danielle Steel's work schedule claims？
A) They are questionable.
CThey are irresistible.
B)They are alterable.
D)They are verifiablc.
49. What docs Maryanne Taylor think of self-imposed sleeplessness？
A) It may turn out to be key to a successful career.
B)It may be practiced only by certain tech heads.
C)It may symbolise one's importance and success.
D) It may well serve as a measure of self-discipline.
50. How does Dr. Sophic Bostock look at the 20-hour daily work schedule？
A)One should not adopt it without consulting a sleep expert.
B) The general public should not be encouraged to follow it.
C) One must be duly self-disciplined to adhere to it.
D) The majority must adjust their body clock for it.

Bessie Coleman
Bessie was born in Atlanta, Texas in 1893. Her father was an Indian and her mother an African American. Her father left the family when she was seven. At such a young age, Bessie picked cotton. She also took on extra washing and ironing to help her mother meet family expenses.
After finishing high school, Bessie went to Chicago to stay with a younger brother. She became interested in aviation (飞行) shortly after World War I. But because of her sex and color she could not enroll (注册入学) in an aviation school in the US. Later, a newspaper editor told her that the only path left open to her would be an viation school in Europe. She then made two trips to Europe. She studied under top German and French pilots, and returned to Chicago with an international pilot's license. Bessie became the only black woman pilot in the world.
Her work as a pilot took her into a field untouched by women in her day. This field was exhibition flying. In 1922, Bessie gave her first exhibition flying show. Several thousand eager fans came to see the unusual show. She went on giving air shows all over the US. She gained national attention and thousands of fans of all races. She was not discouraged by words from her family or seeing the death of a student pilot. Nor did suffering a broken leg and arm in an air crash scare her.
Letters poured in from young black people. Like Bessie, they wanted to go into the field of aviation. Long before her first exhibition, Bessie dreamed of setting up a flying school for blacks. Unfortunately, she died in a flight accident before her dream was realized.
