Christmas was just a week away and I had five people left to shop for but only three dollars. “Let’s set a price limit on our gifts this year,” I suggested to my best friend Joanie. “That’s a good idea,” Joanie agreed. “How about nothing over five dollars?” “How about sixty cents?” I felt like the biggest cheapskate in the world. “I guess this is where I'm supposed to say it’s not the gift but the thought that counts,” Joanie smiled. It is almost impossible to buy anything under sixty cents, so it was really going to have to be very small gifts with very big thoughts. Finally, Christmas Day arrived. I gave my mother a candle with a note that said, “You are the brightest light in my life.” She almost cried when she read the note. I gave my brother a wooden ruler. On the back of it I had painted, “No brother in the world could measure up to you.” He gave me a bag of sugar and wrote on it, “You’re my sweet sister.” For Joanie, I painted a pair of shoes with a note that said, “No one could ever fill your shoes.” She thanked me and said I always delighted her and made her laugh. To my other two friends, I gave Annie a paper fan and a note on it, “I’m your biggest fan.” I gave Helen a calculator that cost one dollar and I painted a message on the back, “You can always count on me.” My mother knows she is the most important person in my life. My brother thinks I’m sweet. Joanie thinks I’m funny and make her laugh, which is important because her dad moved away last year and she misses him and is sad sometimes.... 24.

Hemophilia(血友病)results when a gene fails to produce the protein(蛋白质) needed for the blood to clot(凝结), or change from a liquid to a solid. The fault gene is passed from parents to children. People with hemophilia suffer uncontrollable bleeding. This can result in pain, tissue swelling(肿胀)and permanent damage to joints and muscles. One in every ten thousand males has the most common kind of hemophilia. It’s extremely rare for females to have it. Patients can be treated with the missing clotting substance. They generally can lead normal lives. Scientists say gene treatment may be a possible way to cure hemophilia in the future. Researchers consider hemophilia the best disease for gene treatment because it is caused by a single fault gene. Also, only a small increase in the missing clotting substance could provide good results. They tested gene treatment in six patients with severe hemophilia. First, they removed skin ceils from the patients’ arms. The researchers grew the cells in the laboratory. They added copies of the needed gene taken from healthy people. Then they created hundreds of millions of genetically changed cells. They placed these cells into the patients’ stomachs. After four months, the amount of blood clotting substance in the blood increased in four of the six patients．Some of the patients reported a decrease in bleeding problems. However, ten months later, the clotting substance was no longer in the patients’ blood. It is not clear if the implanted cells died or the added genes stopped working. The researchers say the study showed that gene treatment is safe for people with the most common kind of hemophilia. But others expressed concern about the treatment because the effects were only temporary. 32. Which of the following statements is NOT true about hemophilia? A. It is caused by a fault gene and is passed from parents. B. It suffers uncontrolled bleeding. C. People with hemophilia don't have any physical damage and can lead normal lives. D. It doesn’t succeed in making protein needed for blood to form into clots. 33. People with hemophilia can live normally when . A. they are treated with the missing clotting substance B. they accept the scientists’ help C. good copies of gene are placed in their bodies D. they place some genetically changed cells into their stomachs 34. By carrying out the experiment, scientists conclude that . A. the effects of treatments are excellent and last long B. gene treatment is a safe and possible way to treat hemophilia C. people with hemophilia can recover completely with gene treatment D. hemophilia is a disease that can be treated easily 35. The passage is mainly about______. A. Whether people with hemophilia can live normally. B. how to control the bleeding for hemophilia patients. C. how the researchers remove skin cells from patients. D. The gene treatment for hemophilia.

“YOU’RE too small, Ginny, you’ll never make an Olympic team,” said my first-ever rowing coach, way back in the late winter of 1978. I had just41 my dream. It was sure too big at that point to somebody whose42 not only mattered, but whose emotional support could play a key role. Then I was just 20, and still a(n)43 athlete. Maybe my dream wasn’t based on reality. After all, I had tried out for the national team for the first time the previous year and been 44 . I lacked the height that most Olympic rowers possess, not to45 much experience as an athlete, and I suffered from asthma, but still, I was shocked by my coach’s response. 46 not just by his choice of words, but by his certainty, I left the gym in a panic. As I walked, I began to rethink my future, making room for my coach’s opinion, setting47 my dream. A small inner voice had joined forces with the coach’s. “Maybe he’s48 ” But then, another voice49 . “What does he know? Why does he get to decide?” That my own coach didn’t have faith in me didn’t mean I had to give up on myself so quickly. By the time I arrived back at my apartment, I was 50 my coach. And my51 was back on center stage. _52 came easy when it came to fulfilling that dream. I tried out for two more national teams and two different coaches cut me.

I kept training four more years, and56 won silver at the 1984 Olympics. All the effort was worth it. Everything I have today is a result of57 that dream, all those hours on the water and in the stadium. They got me here,58 I know now that big ambitions need not just time to develop, but firm59 in them. If I’m not going to be my own60 for my dreams, no one else will. And I will not allow anyone else to decide for me what’s possible. 41. A. done B. had C. conveyed D. realized 42. A. training B. introduction C. vision D. opinion 43.
