5．阅读理解
Do Yao Ming, Liu Xiang and Justine Henin have anything in common with people like us? You probably answer “NO! ”.
It seems that top athletes live in a world that is completely different from ours. However, if we could see into their minds, it would be clear that they are actually just like us.
Just how an athlete becomes a success means examples for us all. To achieve their goals, sportsmen ______ have to prepare physically, ______ mentally(内心地). They have to get to know themselves, manage stress and develop their powers of concentration（专注）. So they can put all their efforts into their events.
We may not be sports stars ourselves, 但是我们不得不面对相同的问题. We set goals for ourselves and think about personal development. We have to manage our fears before big exams. We worry about our friendships with both classmates and teachers.
Like sportsmen, we try to be mentally strong and give our best. Only few of us will be competing in the Olympic Games. But, all the same, there is much we share with sports heroes. Just like athletes, how we feel influences our decisions, behavior and achievements.
Top athletes show us that success isn't simply down to chance. We can control the direction of our life's journey.

（5）We can control the direction of our life's journey.
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，论述明星运动员跟我们的异同。最终得出结论：成功并非偶然，我们可以控制我们人生旅途的方向。
（1）根据句意：为了实现他们的目标，运动员不仅要在身体上做好准备，而且还要在精神上做好准备。故选C。
（2） It seems that……似乎；that is completely different from ours是定语从句，修饰先行词a world，翻译成汉语时注意顺序颠倒过来，即：一个与我们完全不同的世界；completely完全地；ours=our world; 所以本句应该译为：似乎顶级运动员生活在与我们完全不同的世界里。
（3）1)句意：那些运动员生活在与我们不同的世界里。根据第二段However, if we could see into their minds, it would be clear that they are actually just like us.然而，如果我们能看到他们的思想，很明显他们实际上跟我们一样。可知该表达是错误的。
2）句意：我们有时候不得不面对与顶级运动员一样的问题。根据第四段第一句We may not be sports stars ourselves, 但是我们不得不面对相同的问题. 可知该表达是正确的。 （4）借助第三题第二句话可以正确翻译本句：but we have to face the same problems。 （5）主旨句查找。根据作者写作思路可知文章结构是总——分——总，文章第二段点题owever, if we could see into their minds, it would be clear that they are actually just like us.中间论述他们在哪些方面跟我们常人一样；最后一段总结观点：We can control the direction of our life's journey.

8．下面文章中有五处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。 A. It's not a big deal even if you lose. B. Start the things you want to do right now. C. It always takes time to be a winner. D. You can always learn something when trying. E. Don't worry! It'll probably never happen. F. Don't compare yourself with others. I'm forty now. I left school twenty-two years ago. Here's my list of five things I hope to share with you teenagers at school. ________
I always wanted to be the best, and one way of feeling good about myself was to see how much better I was than others. There was only one problem with this. When I saw they were better than me, I felt terrible. Now I compare me with myself. I ask myself if I do things as well as I could. ________
How much time do you spend worrying about the future? I used to worry a lot. Now I know most things you fear will usually never happen. They're just monsters in your own mind. Even if they happen, they will often not be as bad as you expected. In six months, you probably won't remember most of the things you worry about now. ________
When I was young, I often failed to start things I expected to do because I thought they'd taken too long to finish. I always wanted to write a book, for example. But when I thought it might take me more than a year, I lost my enthusiasm(热情). It seemed such a long time. Now I know a year is nothing, if I'd started that book when I was 16, I might have written 10 more by now. I'm upset with myself for not even trying. ________
As a young child you try many new things. If you fail, you try again and again until you learn. But at school you are usually encouraged to do things right. Then you stop trying new things in case you get them wrong. You are losing chances to challenge yourselves. I always remind myself: I had fallen off the bike many times before I learned to ride it. ________
I hated losing when I was younger. Of course, it's nice to win sometimes and to be the best at something. But we can't all be winners all the time. Learning to lose is one of life's most important lessons. If you try your hardest, then you should never be angry with yourself.
【答案】 F；E；B；D；A
