11、been a world champion five times.We _30_had five people who were national champions.One of them was a guy _31_the name of John.John had never been _32_in any high school wrestling competition that I could remember，_33_he was a national champion.There was nobody locally who could touch him.One day，we

13、our teammates tried to _38_John by saying.“Oh，he just got lucky.”And John said，“Thats so stupid.The opportunity presented itself，_39_he exploited it.”We used to have this big sign in our wrestling room that the coach had _40_there：“Luck is what happens when opportunity _41_preparation.”Johns opponen

14、t was prepared to exploit this opportunity.The probability of _42_John was not strong，and he knew it.But he paid attention to the _43_opportunity to present itself，and he defeated and pinned a fivetime national champion.In other words，the real_44_is“Be prepared！”Its not just finding the opportunity.

It is not the amazing complexity of television，nor the impressive technology of transport. The u

18、niversal wonder we share and experience is our ability to make noises with our mouths，and so transmit ideas and thoughts to each others minds. This ability comes so naturally that we tend to forget what a miracle(奇迹) it is.Obviously，the ability to talk is something that marks humans off from animals

19、. Of course，some animals have powers just as amazing.Birds can fly thousands of miles by observing positions of the stars in the sky in relation to the time of day and year. In Natures talent show，humans are a species of animal that have developed their own special act. If we reduce it to basic term

20、s，its an ability for communicating information to others，by varying sounds we make as we breathe out.Not that we dont have other powers of communication. Our facial expressions convey our emotions，such as anger，or joy，or disappointment.The way we hold our heads can indicate to others whether we are

21、happy or sad. This is socalled “body language”. Bristling(直立的) fur is an unmistakable warning of attack among many animals. Similarly，the bowed head or drooping tail shows a readiness to take second place in any animal gathering.Such a means of communication is a basic mechanism that animals，includi

22、ng human beings，instinctively acquire and display. Is the ability to speak just another sort of instinct? If so，how did human beings acquire this amazing skill? Biologists can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms function，but this doesnt tell us how that part of

23、 our bodies originated in our biological history.46According to the passage，the wonder we take for granted is _.Aour ability to use language Bthe miracle of technologyCthe amazing power of nature Dour ability to make noises with mouth47What feature of “body language” mentioned in the passage is comm

24、on to both humans and animals?ALifting heads when sad.BKeeping long faces when angry.CBristling hair when ready to attack.DBowing heads when willing to obey.48What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?ABody language is unique to humans.BAnimals express emotions just as humans do.CHumans have other power

25、s of communication.DHumans are no different from animals to some degree.49This passage is mainly about _.Athe development of body languageBthe special role humans play in natureCthe power to convey information to othersDthe difference between humans and animals in language useBThe engineer Camillo O

26、livetti was 40 years old when he started the company in 1908.At his factory in Ivrea，he designed and produced the first Italian typewriter. Today the companys head office is still in Ivrea，near Turin，but the company is much larger than it was in those days and there are offices all around the world.

27、By 1930 there was a staff of 700 and the company turned out 13,000 machines a year. Some went to customers in Italy，but Olivetti exported more typewriters to other countries.Camillos son，Adriano，started working for the company in 1924 and later he became the boss.

28、the production line and he employed technology and design specialists. The company developed new and better typewriters and then calculators(计算器). In 1959 it produced the ELEA computer system. This was the first mainframe(主机) computer designed and made in Italy.After Adriano died in 1960，the company

29、 had a period of financial problems. Other companies，especially the Japanese，made faster progress in electronic technology than the Italian company.In 1978，Carlo de Benedetti became the new boss. Olivetti increased its marketing and service networks and made agreements with other companies to design

30、 and produce more advanced office equipment.Soon it became one of the worlds leading companies in information technology and communications. There are now five independent companies in the Olivetti groupone for personal computers，one for other office equipment，one for systems and services，and two for telecommunications.50From the text we learn that _.Aby 1930 Olivetti produced 13,000 typewri
