三、 阅读理解
21. I was riding my special motorbike this past weekend and stopped at a convenience store. As I was getting my wheelchair off the back, a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. “Well, do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?” I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, “OK, as long as I can follow you.”
He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked non-stop about what she wanted for Christmas.
As we came back to the convenience store, she said, “This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didn’t know I could do this.” I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, “Oh Daddy, I’m going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too.” Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, “I was sitting here praying for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull compared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today.” I believed what he said. Being kind and thoughtful to others, we can be an answer to prayer.

He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this.”可知爸爸一开始因为不认识作者感到有点惊讶。选A
22. Kites... on the Ocean?
Above beautiful Kite Beach in Cabarete, on the northeast coast of the Dominican Republic, huge color1 ful kites fly in the gentle wind. Kites aren’t an unusual sight on any beach, but these aren’t ordinary kites. Instead of being flown by people standing in the sand, these kites, which are inflatable (可充气的) are actually pulling men and women through the water on what look like short surfboards. Some even leap high above the waves, twisting and jumping, as their kites pull them up into the air. Welcome to the sport of kiteboarding, one of the world’s hottest new watersports!

The idea of using kites as a kind of transportation actually goes back to China in the 13th century. Then in 1903, Samuel Cody of England used “man-lifting kites” to pull a small boat across the English Channel. But today’s sport of kiteboarding is ly young. Two brothers from France, Dominique and Bruno Legaignoux, began experimenting with inflatable kites in the 1980s. In 1984 they eventually patented a kite with inflatable tubes and a harness(背带) system of strings that allowed a rider to control the kite from the water and relaunch it easily if it crashed. Modern kiteboarding was born. The first kiteboarding competitions were taking place in Hawaii in 1998.
Kiteboarding works with the help of wind power. The rider wears a special harness around his or her waist, where the kite is attached by a set of four lines that are fastened to a control bar that the rider holds onto with both hands. These lines control the kite as well as making it possible to change how much wind power the kite is using. The kite pulls the rider along on a board that is similar to a short surfboard. The rider’s feet fit into rubber cups to help them stay on the board without slipping.
Kites come in different sizes and riders use the kite that is best suited to the wind conditions where they are riding. Smaller kites are easier to control, but large kites have more pulling power. Kites also come in several designs: C-kites, or leading edge inflatable kites, are easy to relaunch if they fall into the water. Foil kites have cells that are inflated by the wind at any time. However, some types of foil kites cannot be relaunched from the water.
Kiteboarding has become increasingly popular in the last 10 years, and many places all over the world offer kiteboarding lessons for beginners. While it takes some skill to learn to manage a kite and stay upright on the board, with practice you’ll find yourself skimming along the waves, pulled by your color1 ful kite!
48. What can we learn about kiteboarding?
A. It is a popular sport.                B. It depends on wave power.
C. It dates back to centuries ago.        D. It is intended for professional surfers.
49. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?
A. The types of kiteboarding.          B. The invention of kiteboarding.
C. The experiments of kiteboarding.    D. The competitions of kiteboarding.
50. What makes the rider fastened to the surfboard?
A. A set of four lines.                  B. A special harness.
C. A pair of rubber cups.               D. A control bar.
