    Section B
    Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
    Marti Sementelli has been a baseball player since preschool, throwing plastic balls and swinging a tiny wood bat from the time she was 3 years old. She was a solid player at every youth level, and sometimes a star. In 2007, Nike even featured the young Californian in a TV commercial.
    Despite her experience, Sementelli, now 16, had a hard time finding a high school that would allow her to try out for the boys’ baseball team.
    Two parochial schools (教会学校) near her family’s home in North Hollywood said no, and several public schools were lukewarm (冷淡的) to the idea. Finally, she found Burbank High School, where she’s now a sophomore and a member of the JV baseball team.
    Sementelli’s story is not unique. Across the country, girls devoted to baseball--and with as many seasons of youth ball under their belts as their male teammates--are finding it isn’t easy to stay in the sport when they reach high school.
    Biology does play a role in the situation: Boys, especially older ones, often have an edge over girls in size and strength, allowing them to throw harder and swing with greater force. But girls say that the toughest battles are not about capabilities, but against the traditional attitude that baseball is for boys.
    “Most people just are incapable of seeing beyond what’s easy,” says Jennifer Ring, the author of Stolen Bases: Why American Girls Don’t Play Baseball, and a professor at the University of Nevada-Reno. “It is much neater if we say boys play baseball and girls play other sports.”
    In at least one state, Massachusetts, girls are barred from trying out for boys’ baseball in high schools that also offer softball. Nebraska dropped its ban last year, and in January, Indiana removed its ban after being sued (控告) by the parents of Logan Young, a 15-year-old aspiring catcher and freshman at Bloomington South High School.
    81. When did Sementelli begin to play baseball? (no more than 6 words)
    82. Where did Sementelli stay in a baseball team? (no more than 6 words)
    83. What does the author think about girls’ capabilities in baseball? (no more than 10 words)
    84. In which states are girls allowed to play baseball? (no more than 4 words)

    D
    “Wanted by the FBI.” To the murderer, or the bank robber, these are the most frightening words in the world. When the criminal hears them，he knows that six thousand trained persons are after him.
    Why should he be so afraid? There are thousands of cities and villages where he can hide，and forests and deserts, as well. Besides, he’s usually rich with stolen money.
    Money can make it easier to hide. With money, the criminal can even pay a doctor to operate on his face and make him hard to recognize. But the criminals know that as public enemies, they can be found by the FBI no matter where they hide.
    They know every trick the criminal knows and many more. If he makes just one mistake，they’ll get him. That’s why the man who is wanted can’t sleep. That’s why he becomes nervous, why he jumps at every sound.
    The FBI began on May 10th, 1924. General Harlan Stone chose Edgar Hoover, a young lawyer, to head the new agency . “What we need is a wholly new kind of police force,” he said. “Criminals today are smart．They use stolen cars and even planes to make their gateways. They have learned to open any lock，using advanced technology. We can’t beat them with old methods. We have to train officers to work scientifically.”
    Edgar Hoover quietly went ahead with his plans. He picked his men carefully. They had to be between the ages of twenty-five and thirty-five. He wanted only men with good manners and good character. When working as his officers, they would have to meet all kinds of people. Hoover wanted men who could handle a teacup as well as a gun. But the FBI cannot help in every police problem. It can look into only certain crimes against the government. Solving all other crimes is the duty of local police forces．   
    68．A man wanted by the FBI will find that money is ________.
    A．not at all useful              B．very helpful for a while
    C．necessary for his crime         D．everything for him
    69．Before he worked with the FBI，Edgar Hoover was a ____________.
    A．policeman     B．lawyer    C．teacher     D．general
    70．The FBI was begun in order to____.
    A．reduce crimes            B．bring younger men into police work
    C．fight crimes scientifically   D．offer jobs
    71．A man who can “handle a teacup as well as a gun” has both ____________.
    A．courage and manners         B．strength and kindness
    C．wisdom and energy          D．ability and humor

    (C)
    After my husband died suddenly from a heart attack，my world crashed around me．My six children were all under 10，and I was burdened with the responsibilities of earning a living，and   caring for the children．I was fortunate to find a wonderful housekeeper to care for the children during the week，but from Friday nights to Monday mornings，the children and t were alone．
    One Friday evening I came home from work to find a big pretty German shepherd off our doorstep．This dog seemed to intend to enter the house．The children liked “German” immediately and begged me to let him in．I agreed to let him sleep in the basement．That night I slept peacefully for the first time in many weeks．
    The following morning we made phone calls and checked lost-and-found ads for German’s owner, but with no results．
    On Sunday I had planned to take the children on a picnic．Since I thought it best to leave German behind in case his owner came by，we drove off without him．When we stopped to get gas, we were amazed to see German racing to the gas station after us．No way was he going to be left behind．
    Monday morning I let him out for a run．He didn’t come back and we were all disappointed．
    We were convinced that we would never see him again．We were wrong．The next Friday evening,
    German was back on other doorstep．Again he stayed until Monday morning，when our housekeeper arrived．
    This pattern repeated itself every．weekend for almost 10 months．We grew more and more fond of German．We took comfort in his strong，warm presence，and we felt safe with him near us．
    As German became part of the family，he considered it his duty to check every bedroom to be sure each child was cozy in bed．
    Each week，between German’s visits，I grew a little stronger，a little braver and mole able to cope；every weekend we were no long alone and enjoyed his company．Then one Monday morning we patted him on his head and let him out for what turned out to be the Iast time．We never saw German again．
    64．The dog first came when         ．
    A．it was needed most    B．the mother became strong enough
    C．her father died suddenly         D．she was busy on the weekday
    65．Which of the following can’t be used to describe the dog?

    A．afraid of    B．grateful to    C．cruel to        D．annoyed with
    67．The family planned to go on a picnic without the German shepherd because         ．
    A．German was too wild to control           B．German was too young to walk so far
    C．the owner might come by to look for it       D．it might spoil the trip

    A
    An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.
    When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
    She hurried to a drugstore with the money in her hand.
    “And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.
    “My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.
    “Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”
    A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”
    “I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”
    “How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.
    “Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.”
    He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”
    That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again.
