I was gazing out the window of the plane, when I felt a powerful jolt （顛簸） as if a truck had hit us from behind．Following Les and Randy I jumped into the lake．
Twenty minutes later, in the icy cold water, I felt my arms had gone numb, I couldn't last much longer．But I thought of the difficult situations I'd gone through．I wasn't going to die．I swam for more than an hour till I reached shore．There were Randy and Les, alive but in bad shape．
"We're going to have to pull through the night．" I told them．"Do you think we're gonna make it?" Les asked．I hesitated, because I had never felt worse．"Yes," I replied encouragingly．We built a shelter with rocks I gathered nearby and made a fire to keep warm．Over and over I told myself, "We're going to make it．God will help us．"
Next morning, we scanned the water, trying to spot a fisherman．A couple of hours later a boat came into view．We waved and shouted．The boat moved across the water till we could no longer see it．We spotted a second one．Same deal．Then another boat．Randy ran about a mile after the boat along the shore．Finally they spotted him．
"It's a miracle," one fisherman said after listening to our story．"We're here for a fishing tournament．This spot never has fish this time of year．But for some reason I thought it necessary to check it out．You should have been senseless after 30 minutes in that water．No way you should have made it．"
That's my most recent brush with death．Fight to survive．That's what it takes to be a true survivor．

Durban—Canada Monday became the first country to pull out of the historic Kyoto Protocol （京都議定書）, inescapably scarring the global anti-climate change efforts．
The Kyoto Protocol, which set different duties for all countries to cut emissions （排放）, states that different countries should reduce their collective greenhouse emissions accordingly． However, the United States refused to sign the protocol in 2001, and is the only developed country that has not agreed to sign it．The move has cast a shadow over the global community, and has made some other developed nations hesitate to cut their emissions．To add fuel to the fire, Canada, became the first to call it quits, with the deadline of the first commitment period （2008-2014） approaching．
The biggest concern at this moment is whether other developed countries would follow suit．
Over the past four years, a drama has unfolded among developed countries over the emissions cuts and offering support to their developing partners．
The Umbrella Group, consisting of Japan, Canada, Australia, the United States and other developed countries, hesitated and even backed away from their positions under certain excuses．The first one quoted by Canadian Environment Minister Peter Kent is that emission cuts damage the economy．Still another is requiring China and India to have thesame duty of cutting emissions as developed countries．
Actually, if emissions in developed countries could fall to the levels in developing countries, it would greatly help the fight against global climate change．
In sum, any irresponsible action, in the anti-climate change campaign should be a cause for blame．It is widely hoped that the United States and Canada will see reason and join the rest of the world community in supporting the Kyoto Protocol．
60．Which of the following serves as the best title of the passage?
A．Canada Decides to Quit the Kyoto Protocol．
B．Canada and the US Refuse to Cut Emissions．
C．Developed Countries Hesitating to Cut Emissions．
D．Developing Countries Supporting the Kyoto Protocol．
61．According to the passage, ____ have refused to follow the Kyoto Protocol．
A．Canada and Australia B．Japan and Canada
C．the US and Canada D．China and India
62．People now are most worried ____．
A．whether the US and Canada will return to the negotiation table
B．whether developing countries will refuse to cut emissions
C．whether China and India will carry the same duty as Canada
D．whether more developed countries will do the same as Canada
63．The writer's attitude towards Canada's decision is ____．
A．negative B．positive C．mixed D．casual
C
Tickets and Events for 2014 London Olympic Games
Tickets
64．A Chinese who wants to get tickets for Olympic Football Tournament should _____．

B．purchase through NPC in China by Feb．6, 2014
C．visit ．tickets．london2014．com now
D．contact the NOC in China by Feb．6,2014
65．____will be held in the Olympic Park．
A．Walking and table tennis B．Running and basketball preliminaries
C．Taekwondo and table tennis D．Men's basketball quarter-finals and taekwondo
66．Which sport will last the longest period of time?
A．Athletics． B．Taekwondo． C．Basketball． D．Table Tennis．
D
New experiments discover rats showing sympathy and helping other rodents （嚙齒類動(dòng)物）．It is a characteristic some scientists thought was reserved only for humans and higher animals．
In repeated tests, rats freed another trapped rat in their cage, even when yummy chocolate served as an attraction．24 of the 30 rats opened the trap by pushing in a door．The rats could have eaten the chocolate before freeing their partners, but often didn't, choosing to help and share the goodies．
"Basically they told us freeing another rat is as important as eating chocolate," said study author Peggy Mason of the University of Chicago．"That's a very striking thing．"
In some cases, the rats first took the chocolate chips out of a container, but didn't eat them, then freed the other rat and shared "almost as if they were serving them chocolate," Mason said．The research is reported in Thursday's journal Science．
Also, females showed more consistent care and help than males, Mason said．All six females freed their trapped partner while three quarters of the 24 males did so．This confirms other studies that show females showing more pro-social （親社會(huì)） behavior than males．There were time when the male rats took the day off from helping their trapped partner, but the females never did, she said．
Jeff Mogil at McGill University in Canada, who wasn't part of the study, said it was a little surprising but even more convincing．
Both scientists said social understanding is probably a characteristic that is important in the evolution of animals．
Mason joked that if rats can be so caring and helpful, "there's a sense of optimism．It's something we could be．"
67．In repeated tests, 24 out of the 30 rats _____．
A．freed their trapped partners before they ate the chocolate alone
B．a(chǎn)te the chocolate first and then freed their trapped partners
C．helped the trapped partners and shared the chocolate with them
D．took the chocolate and served it to their trapped partners
68．In the experiments, _____ male rats freed their trapped partners．
A．6 B．18 C．24 D．30
69．What's the difference between the behavior of male and female rats?
A．Female rats showed more concern about their trapped partners．
B．Male rats cared more about their trapped partners than females．
C．Female rats behaved less pro-socially than male rats on the whole．
D．Male rats didn't go away from their trapped partners for even a day．
70．What can we learn from Mason's joke?
A．We don't like rats because they are mean and selfish animals．
B．Humans and higher animals are more caring and helpful than rats．
C．Rats surprise scientists with more pro-social behavior than humans．
D．Rats show such care and help that we humans should reflect on it．

How to Select Your College?
"So, what are you doing after graduation?" Many juniors and seniors get bored answering that question over and over． 71 Here are some practical tips to prepare yourself for the journey．
*Talking to Your Parents．
What if your post-graduation plans differ from what your parents have in mind? 72 If your parents want you to go to a college but you don't feel that college is right for you, explain why．
* 73
Your parents probably don't know everything．For school and career guidance, visit your school adviser and talk with adult friends．Make an effort to talk to people in the fields that interest you．Ask friends and older siblings （同胞） who are in college about their schools and about other schools they're familiar with．
* Making a Decision．
Some people know from an early age exactly what they want to be and how they plan to get there． 74 And that's OK too．School is also not just about careers and getting a high-paying job after graduation ?it's a place for learning about yourself and the world．
* Selecting a School．
If college is in your future, you need to plan．Which schools appeal to you? How do you decide on a school when there are thousands to pick from? Start by asking yourself questions about your preferences．Once you've narrowed down your choices, you can visit their websites． 75 Try to do this when school is in session so you can get a good idea of what life is really like on campus．
Hope these tips may help you to select schools and wish you good luck!
A．Seeking for Advice．
B．Following Different People．
C．Not all of us are so sure of our plans, though．
D．Talk openly with your parents about your plans．
E．Change your plans and follow your parents．
F．Most students, however, choose to go to college for further study．
G And then limit your list to a manageable number, make arrangements to visit

第二節(jié)：
One Possible Version
Dear Li Ping,
I received your letter yesterday. Nowadays many students listen to music and learn English with earphones. As for your trouble with ears and bad memory, I’m afraid you spend too much time listening with earphones. In fact, listening to music while doing your lessons may result in less concentration on your study. Besides, the overuse of earphones does harm to your hearing. There are many ways we can enjoy music and learn English. For instance, a recorder or a radio may be a good choice. However, if you do need to use an earphone, you should rest your ears for at least ten minutes every hour but do not use it more than 2 hours a day. I hope things will get better soon.
Best wishes.
Yours, Lin Tao

W: Six miles! Oh, dear, I wish I’d known that. I’d never have tried to walk. Maybe I could have taken a bus. Anyhow, thank you.
M: Well, just a minute. I’m going to Emberton in my car. I’ll give you a lift if you like.
W: Oh, thank you. That’s very kind of you.
M: But what about all these bags? Are you going to carry them all the way?
W: Oh, no, no. I’ll put them back. I’m so glad to have met you here.

This is Ned Weather, your weatherman. This afternoon heavy rain fell in our town. The big storm caused a lot of damage and the traffic came to a complete stop.
Now let’s look at the weather report for tomorrow and the weekend. Friday will be warm and sunny during the day and cool at night. Temperatures will be in the sixties during the day and in the forties at night. You won’t need a heavy coat, but take a jacket to work just in case.
The weather on Saturday will be nice in the morning and cloudy in the afternoon. It’ll probably rain at night. Showers are quite common during the spring, but you’ll have clear weather to do some gardening on Saturday morning. Sunday will be cold and windy, and maybe it’ll snow in the mountains. If you’re planning to go there, don’t forget your boots and jackets. And now for sports, here is Mathew Delaney.
