After three or four minutes of suspense, one horse crosses the finish line first, winning the Melbourne Cup and earning a place in history.The horses that compete in the Melbourne Cupone of the worlds
16、most famous horseraceswere fated to race. 22 (breed) for speed, these horses are the few 23 were singled out as having potential to become champions.Preparing a racehorse to compete requires a team. A horses owner manages the team and decides which races to enter. A trainer determines the racehorses
17、 diet and exercise. Regular exercise makes a horse 24 ( likely) to be injured, but overtraining tires the horse. A groomer (动物美容师) cares for the racehorse and reports any problems he discovers to the trainer. And of course, no horserace could 25 (run) without a rider. These riders train for long hou
18、rs and travel constantly from one race to another. They need to make a strategy, adapt 26 to changing conditions and communicate with their horse to guide it to victory.Australias most famous horserace, the Melbourne Cup, is 3,200 meters of pure excitement. Each year 300 or 400 horses are nominated
19、(提名), but only 24 can run. The competitors are chosen in terms of a number of factors, but winners of certain races qualify automatically.Each racehorse receives a handicapa certain weight it must carry to give each horse an equal chance of winning two months before the race. Originally, horses that

But the rules have changed, reducing the handicap for previous winners.The first Melbourne Cup in 1861 drew a crowd of 4,000 spectators and the races popularity 27 (grow) ever since.

24、themselves and to become “haves.” And the optimism that people have, knowing that this miracle will always happen has grown out of some key elements in the history of the nation, a nation that has differed 31 from every other country in the world. The economic 32 of the nation are also very much tie
25、d to these success stories. Three characteristics have contributed to such attainments.First, the United States had natural resources undreamed of in other parts of the world. For farmers and ranchers there was land, often to be had cheaply or even for free. There were endless forests to supply lumb
26、er and rich 33 of coal, oil, silver, copper and gold. Besides, critical to the development of these resources was a population of both native-born Americans and immigrants who were connected by their common work ethic. This ethic held that 34 and thrift should be rewarded with - as Benjamin Franklin
27、 says - “a State of Affluence (富足) and some Degree of Reputation in the World.” These Americans believed in self improvement as well as in the nobility of all kinds of work. They also, if somewhat 35 , often linked material success with spiritual movement. Next, by and large, America was characteriz
28、ed by a 36 class structure. In contrast to England and other European countries with their history of aristocrats (贵族), this country was filled by numerous communities in which family connections or 37 money counted for little. However, the pursuit of American Dream sometimes also sometimes proved t
29、o be a source of tension and strain. At the beginning of the 20th century, writers like Jack London and F. Scott Fitzgerald depicted a lot of “have-not” characters whose fate is not a matter of free will. They are 38 by forces beyond their control. Often, in their works, children or young people are
30、 victimized by poverty that prevents them from 39 themselves. Convinced that a persons destiny is the result of his or her heredity interacting with the environment, they employ many 40 details to explore the oppressive world in which their characters are trapped. Analyzing characters assumptions an
31、d values continued to illuminate the American experience. III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Organized volunteering and work
32、 experience has long been a vital companion to university degree courses. Usually it is left to _41_ to judge the potential from a list of extracurricular adventures on a graduates resume, but now the university of Bristol has set up an award to formalize the achievements of students who _42_ time t
33、o activities outside their courses. Bristol PLuS aims to boost students in an increasingly competitive job market by helping them acquire work and life skills alongside _43_ qualifications.“Our students are a pretty active bunch, but we found that they didnt _44_ appreciate the value of what they di
34、d outside the lecture hall,” says Jeff Goodman, director of careers and employability at the university. “Employers are much more _45_ than they used to be. They used to look for _46_ employees and saw it as part of their job to extract the value of an applicants skills. Now they want students to be
35、 able to explain why those skills are _47_ to the job.”Students who _48_ the award will be expected to complete 50 hours of work experience or voluntary work, attend four workshops on employ-ability skills, take part in an intensive skills-related activity and, crucially, write a summary of the skil
36、ls they have gained. _49_ efforts will gain an Outstanding Achievement Award. Those who _50_ best on the sports field can take the Sporting PLuS Award which fosters employer-friendly sports accomplishments.The experience does not have to be _51_ organized. “Were not just interested in easily identif
37、iable skills,” says Goodman. “_52_, one student took the lead in dealing with a difficult landlord and so _53_ negotiation skills. We try to make the experience relevant to individual lives.”Goodman hopes the scheme will _54_ active students to fill in any gaps in their experience and encourage thei

41、age is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AIf youre a male and youre reading this, congratulations: youre a survivor.
42、According to statistics, you are more than twice as likely to die of skin cancer as a woman, and nine times more likely to die of AIDS. Assuming you make it to the end of your natural term, about 78 years for men in Australia, youll die on average five years before a woman.There are many reasons for
43、 this typically, men take more risks than women and are more likely to drink and smoke but perhaps more importantly, men dont go to the doctor. Men arent seeing doctors as often as they should, says Dr. Gullotta. This is particularly so for the over-40s, when disease tend to strike.Gullotta says a h
44、ealthy man should visit the doctor every year or two. For those over 45, it should be at least once a year. Two months ago Gullotta saw a 50-year-old man who had delayed doing anything about his smokers cough for a year.When I finally saw him it had already spread and he has since died from lung can
45、cer, he says. Earlier detection and treatment may not have cured him, but it would have prolonged his life.According to a recent survey, 95% of women aged between 15 and early 40s see a doctor once a year, compared to 70% of men in the same age group.A lot of men think theyre undefeatable, Gullota s
46、ays. They only come in when a friend drops dead on the golf course and they think, Geez, if it could happen to him, Then theres the ostrich approach. Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know, says Dr. Ross Cartmill.Most men get their cars serviced more regularly than they
47、 service their bodies, Cartmill says. He believes most diseases that commonly affect men could be addressed by preventive check-ups.Regular check-ups for men would inevitably place strain on the public purse, Cartmill says. But prevention is cheaper in the long run than having to treat the diseases. Besides, the ultimate cost is far greater: it is called premature death.56.
