shouted into the hole that it was 6 , and that the two frogs wouldn"t be in that 7 if they had been more
careful.
The other frogs continued 8 shouting that they two should save their 9 and give up, since they were
already as good as dead. The two frogs 10 jumping as hard as they could, and after several hours of hopeless
11 they were quite tired.
Finally, one of the two frogs followed the calls of his fellows. Disheartened, he lay down at the 12 of the
hole, and died as the others looked on in helpless sorrow. The other frog continued to jump with every bit of
energy he had, 13 he was completely worn out.
His companions began a new shouting to him to accept his fate, stop the pain and 14 die. The frog jumped
harder and harder and, wonder of wonders, finally jumped so 15 that he sprang from the hole. 16 , the other
frogs celebrated his unbelievable freedom and then gathering around him asked, "Why did you continue jumping
when we told you it was impossible?" 17 their lips, the astonished frog explained to them that he was deaf, and

with no land in sight and you are sailing straight ahead to meet the world. Jesse Martin does not have to
imagine: he is living in it.
On Dec. 7, 1998, at 17 years old, Jesse set sail from Melbourne, Australia on his boat, attempting to
become the youngest person to sail alone and nonstop around the world. He sailed south of New Zealand,
through the South Pacific, around South America, north on the Atlantic, back south past Africa, through
the Indian Ocean and back to Melbourne.
Even as a young child, Jesse had been an adventurer who traveled all over Europe and Asia with his
parents. Born in Munich, Germany in 1981, he moved to Australia with his family when he was only two
years old. They moved close to a rainforest in Cow Bay, about 3500kms north of Melbourne, where they
built a small house with no electricity or running water. Jesse grew up at the beach enjoying the outdoors
to its fullest.
At 14, he sailed for the first time with his father and brother, Beau. It was after this trip that he began
to dream about sailing around the world.
Jesse"s family played an important role. "I was made to believe I could do anything." he says. Although,
he says, there were others that were not so encouraging or supportive, "People that I looked up to, respected
and trusted told me I couldn"t. Thankfully, I trusted myself. There were people that said that the boat
couldn"t be ready by the time I had to leave." However, through perseverance and belief in himself he was
able to do what many told him was impossible.
On Oct.31, 1999, more than 10 months after he set sail, Jesse Martin went down in history as the
youngest person to sail around the world alone, nonstop and unassisted. | | 1. What"s the author"s purpose in encouraging the reader to imagine a sailing experience? | A. To show how difficult it is to be a sailor.
B. To show how wonderful Jesse"s sailing is.
C. To describe what Jesse"s sailing is like.
D. To describe what a sailor"s life is like. | | 2. Jesse Martin was at the end of his voyage when he ______. | A. sailed on the South Pacific.
B. sailed on the Indian Ocean.
C. sailed past Africa.
D. sailed past South America. | | 3. Which of the following made Jesse decide to sail alone around the world? | A. His childhood adventure experiences.
B. His journeys to Europe.
C. His first sailing trip with his family.
D. His love for outdoor activities. | | 4. What can we learn from Jesse Martin"s story? | A. Interest leads to success.
B. A strong belief will make a person stronger.
C. Life is an unusual adventure we should enjoy.
D. Failure is the mother of success. | | 完形填空。 | James was a curious young man. Everywhere he went, he liked to observe things and to 1 people-what
they did, what they said and what they wore. Subconsciously, he was making quick 2 all the time. He
couldn"t really 3 it; it just happened.
For example, he once saw a man whose body was 4 with tattoos (纹身). That man was strong and
walked proudly. James imagined his 5 people up, sometimes with sticks and sometimes with his hands,
speaking 6 words each time he opened his mouth. A troublemaker, perhaps, James 7 to himself.
Sometimes James felt 8 for judging others this way, but that feeling was 9 and never really lasted.
Then, one day, he saw a woman seated alone in a café. The woman was 10 , quite fat, and although she
was not 11 , James could tell she was a short lady. 12 , James glanced across at her, looking at her from
top to bottom. As his eyes reached her 13 , he got a shock.
There she was, on her left foot, wearing a platform shoe that was at least 3 inches high. 14 could such a
little middle-aged lady who was average-looking at best be so vain as to wear high platforms? Look beautiful?
In that short moment of time, 15 thoughts flowed through James" mind.
A second later, James" eyes naturally moved across to the lady"s right foot. And there, he got an even
bigger 16 -It was a flat shoe. She was not vain; she had a birth defect (缺陷)-uneven length of her legs. If
anything, she deserved 17 and understanding, certainly not blame, not even mental ones.
James was 18 with guilt. It was a(n) 19 lesson he learned about not 20 conclusions, about not judging
people, especially so quickly. | ( )1. A. greet

young divorcee (离了婚的人)who lived there, was waiting by the roadside. She said that she had a 2 to
tell me.
About six months 3 it seemed that I had 4 a letter to her which had her street 5 on it but was
addressed to another house with the 6 number on a different street in her neighborhood. She decided to
drop off the letter to the correct house.
It turned out that the letter had been 7 for Johnson, who happened to be 8 . They talked for a little
while and later on he 9 . Then they started dating (约会) and had been going 10 together ever since.

A few months later a(n) 12 sign went up in Christy`s yard. and then the wedding 13 were sent out.
Soon the house was sold,the wedding happened, 14 Christy, with her kids, moved into Johnson`s house.
A few months later, I saw a For Sale sign in 15 yard. I feared the 16 might be trouble, so I made up a(n)
17 to go to their door and check on them.
Christy opened the door,smiled broadly, and 18 to her huge stomach "We are having twins!" she said,
"This house won`t be big enough, so we have to 19 ."
