解析：动词辨析题。分析文章可知，空格所在句想表达的意思是：这种车已在美国公路上跑了14万多英里（22.5万公里），能表达这层含义的只有covered，故A项为正确选项。【干扰排除】B项ranged“变化，变动”，指数量、数值在一定范围内的变化、变动，通常搭配为range...from…这里显然与文意不符，故排除；C项changed“改变”，不符合题意，故排除；D项differed“与……不同”，通常与from搭配，不符合题意，亦排除。

根据下列材料请回答 41～45 题：EI am Sergey Brin! I was born in Moscow. In 1979, when I was 5, my family immigrated to the U. S. A． , California. I remember that on my 9th birthday I got my first computer “Commodore 64”.Later I graduated with honors in the University of Maryland in Mathematics and IT. The main field of my science research was the technologies used to collect data from unsystematic sources as well as large quantities of texts and science data. I was the author of dozens of articles in leading American academic magazines.The greatest event in my life happened when in 1998 I was preparing for the defense(论文答辩) of my Doctor's degree in Stanford University. There the fate made me meet Larry Page--a young computer genius. Larry belonged to the intellectual(知识分子) society. Larry and I quickly became friends when we worked together.We were searching day and night on the Internet. We were finding a lot of information but with the feeling we still couldn't find enough of what we were looking for. Naturally the idea for a search engine that would allow specific .information to be found in the endless pool of data was born like it came to us. It wasn't our plans but we gave up the education at the university. You know the next part, maybe--we managed to turn an ordinary garage in Meplo Park, California, the U. S. A． into our first office, in which Google was born. With excitement we typed the name of the thing which we created with love on September 14th, 1998--www. Google. com. Now, after those years we bought this garage. As a symbol it will always remind us that everything is possible.第 41 题 Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A． The Birth of Google.B． The Founder of Google.C． The Importance of Cooperation.D． The Great Contribution to the Internet.

DMy father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to male it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.Since the day 1 was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in mybeart. One it aways times out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one hay, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask. “Is this what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going?”A long way frim 12 now, I realize hew would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, thongn. I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to winat com next: to be nrood of and believe in, somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own letters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don’t hold back because they’re afraid to fail. They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear－as mine was until my father’s letter－is of being a disappointment.Give your chikdren permission to succeed. They’re witing for you to believe in them. I always knew way parents loved me. But trust my That elic will be more comlece, that love will be more real, and their belief in the nelces whi be greater if you write the words on their hearts; “Don’t worry; you’ll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.68.We learn from the text that the author .A.lost his father when he was youngB.worked hard before he read his father’s letterC.asked his father permission to believe in himselfD.knew execty at thing his father wanted him to do

I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother."But the desk," she'd said again, "it's for Elizaheth." I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in acdou. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened.And a gulf opened between us. I was "too emotional". But she lived "on the surface". As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she ebose that she did forgive me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and l could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. Now the present of her desk told, as she'd never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside--a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words. What did mother do with her daughter's letter asking forgiveness?A.She had never received the letter.B.For years, she often talked about the letter.C.She didn't forgive her daughter at all in all her life.D.She read the letter again and again till she died.
