B A song called Lonely Warrior (《孤勇者》) is always ringing in my ears. Six years ago, after hosting an annual ceremony for my school, I found that my left leg was a little swollen, and very soon I could barely walk. In fact, the swollen part became a fist-sized meatball that was so painful that I could barely sleep. Of course, I went to a local hospital, where I was given very bleak (不乐观的) news--osteosarcoma, which means bone cancer. I underwent chemotherapy (化疗) for the next two years, and it was the worst time of my life. Physically, I felt that the side effects of chemotherapy were killing me. I lost all of the hair on my body and I became totally bald. I could barely eat anything, even if felt hungry. I no longer needed an alarm clock to wake up in the morning. Instead, what woke me was my body telling me that I needed to vomit (呕吐). I had no idea where all this treatment would leave me, and the dreams I had once nursed about the future were entirely wiped out. I wanted to feel the world and experience more, so I stuck to the course of treatment. As time went by, however, I became weaker and weaker. The side effects now were far worse than they had been earlier. I eventually suggested that the leg be chopped off, and the doctor said that might be the best thing to do, as long as I could cope with the psychological and social pressures afterward. I made my decision very calmly, because I knew things could not be worse than they were at that moment, and I was determined that this was just one more battle I would win. Now, six years later, I have weathered all these difficulties. I have been so lucky to be able to find the strength to deal with all of this, and what I have to tell anyone still struggling with difficulties is this: have faith in yourself, and do not let bad moments drag you down. Just hang on and you will come through. 24. What can we learn about the side effects of chemotherapy? A. They made the author suffer a lot. B. They destroyed the author’s faith. C. They were relieved after treatment. D. They were more obvious in the daytime 25. What was the author’s decision to deal with his condition? A. Chopping off his leg. B. Turning down the doctor's advice. C. Giving in to the cancer. 高二 英语 第4 页 共10 页 D. Seeking psychological assistance. 26. What does the underlined word“weathered”in the last paragraph mean? A. resisted B. survived C. escaped D. produced 27. What does the author want to convey in the text? A. A light heart lives long. B. A good medicine tastes bitter. C. Time works wonders. D. One with faith braves any hardship. C Zoologists track animals using global-positioning-system(GPS)tags( 标签) which then return their data via satellite. Marine( 海洋的)biologists have a harder time of it, though, because radio signals can’t pass through seawater. This makes it impossible either to receive GPS signals or to send any data collected back to base. That does not stop people tagging sea creatures. Data collected and stored in a tag can be sent to a satellite in bursts if the species in question is one that comes to the surface from time to time. A tag may also be recovered if the animal carrying
