Molly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity. As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team. She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home. She says, "When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race. They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey." Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn't prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. 'One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn't move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.' By the end of October last year, she had raised more than ?50,000 for charity. She says, 'Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it's the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.'1.What does the word 'extraordinary' mean in the title?2. The sentence "?my husband thought I was bored ?" in Para. 4 meant that my husband thought I felt().3. The word 'section' in Para. 4 most probably means here ().4. Which of the following is nearest (closest) in meaning to 'rough' in the sentence 'One night the sea was very rough ?' in Para. 5?5. The last paragraph suggests that ().(1).A、very ordinaryB、very unusual and surprisingC、not special(2).A、dissatisfied because I had nothing better to do at homeB、annoyed because I had to wait long for my children to come back homeC、sad because all the children left me when they grew up(3).A、group of the jobB、part of the trainingC、part of the route of sail(4).A、not exactB、difficultC、not smooth because of huge waves(5).A、the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancerB、many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so she needn't do anything before the journeyC、she should not forget dancing during the trip
The journey two divers(潜水员)made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth make us realize how much of the world still remains to be studied. The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small ball to find out if there are any ocean currents(水流)or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early, so that the ball would come to the surface in daylight, and so be easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it. The divers began preparations(准备)early in the morning and soon afterwards, when all was ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.The divers felt as if they were going down steps as they passed through warm and cold layers(层)of water. In time, the temperature dropped to freezing point. They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone telling how they felt. Then, at a depth(深度)of 3,000 feet, the telephone stopped working and they were quite cut off from the outside world. All went well until some four hours later at 30,000 feet, the men were frightened by a loud, cracking(爆裂)noise: even the smallest hole in the ball would have meant instant death. Luckily, though, it was only one of the outer(外部的)windows that had broken. Soon afterwards, the ball touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of "dust" made up of small dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the great water pressure(压力). But they did not dare to leave the lights on for long , as the heat from them made the water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint(微弱的)but clear voices of the divers were heard on the mother ship seven miles away. After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up, arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience.1. The purpose of the diver's journey to the deepest point on the earth was to find _____.A. if there are water currents and life in the great depthsB. if people can stand the severe cold in the great depthsC. if there are steps in the great depthsD. if the telephone works well in the great depths2. The divers set out early in the morning so that _____.A. they could return to the surface during the dayB. they could see at the bottom of the oceanC. they could avoid the cold at nightD. they could stay long at the bottom3. Which of the following statements is true?A. The ocean water temperature decreases steadily with the depthB. There are steps on the way to the bottom of the Pacific OceanC. There are steps between the water layers of different temperatureD. The water layers of different temperatures made the divers feel as if they were going down steps4. As the divers went down to the ocean floor, the telephone _____.A. kept working all the timeB. stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again after they reached the bottomC. stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working at 30,000 feetD. stopped working at a depth of 3,000 feet and began working again when they returned to the same depth5. On the ocean floor, the divers found that _____.A. there was no life but some small dead sea-creaturesB. fish were swimming as freely as they do near the surfaceC. fish were not swimming freely in the dark waterD. fish were not swimming freely under the high water pressure
