Short and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. "Football, tennis, Cricket—anything with a round ball, I was useless." he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the object of jokes in school gym classes in England's rural Devonshire.
It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first the teen went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to cycle along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed, strength and endurance. At age 18, he ran his first marathon.
The following year, he met John Ridgway, who became famous in the 1960s for rowing an open boat across the Atlantic Ocean. Saunders was hired as an instructor at Ridgway's school of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about the older man's cold-water exploits（成就）. Intrigued, Saunders read all he could about Arctic explorers and North Pole expeditions, then decided that this would be his future.
Journeys to the Pole aren't the usual holidays for British country boys, and many people dismissed his dream as fantasy." John Ridgway was one of the few who didn't say, 'You are completely crazy,' " Saunders says.
In 2001, after becoming a skilled skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition toward the North Pole. He suffered frostbite, had a closer encounter（遭遇）with a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit.
Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he's skied more of the Arctic by himself than any other Briton. His old playmates would not believe the transformation.
This October, Saunders, 27, heads south to explore from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, an 1800-mile journey that has never been completed on skis.
1.The turning point in Saunders’life came when _____
A. he started to play ball games
B. he ran his first marathon at age 18
C. he got a mountain bike at age 15
D. he started to receive Ridgway’s training
2.We can learn from the text that Ridgway _______.
A. won his fame for his voyage across the Atlantic
B. built up his body together with Saunders
C. hired Saunders for his cold-water experience
D. dismissed Saunders’ dream as fantasy
3.What do we know about Saunders?
A. He followed Ridgway to explore the North Pole.
B. He once worked at a school in Scotland.
C. He was chosen for the school sports team as a kid.
D. He was the first Briton to ski alone to the North Pole.
4.The underlined word “Intrigued” in the third paragraph probably means_____.
A. Excited B. Fascinated
C. Delighted D. Convinced
5.It can be inferred that Saunders’ journey to the North Pole ______.
A. was accompanied by his old playmates
B. made him well-known in the 1960s
C. was supported by other Arctic explorers

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman．A man goes shopping because he needs something．All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want．If the shop has it in stock，the salesman immediately finds it，and the business of trying it on follows at once．All being well，the deal can be and often is completed inless than five minutes．
For a man，small problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants．In that case，thesalesman，tries to sell the customer something else．“I know this jacket is not the style you want，sir，but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be thecolour you mentioned．”Few men have patience with this treatment，and the usual response is: “This is the right colour and may be the right size，but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on．”
However，a woman in almost every respect she does so in the opposite way．Her shopping is not often based on needand she is only “having a look around”．She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her．She will try on any number ofthings．Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes．They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain．Faced with a roomful of dresses，a woman may easily spend an hour going from one room to another，often retracing her steps，before selecting the dresses she wants to try on．It is a laborious process，but apparently an enjoyable one．Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands．
1.The underlined part “sets great store by ” in paragraph 3 means___
A． has much information about
B． knows nothing bout
C． believes in
D． has her doubts about
2.What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?
A． They welcome suggestions from others．
B． They rarely consider buying cheap clothes．
C． They predict what they want to buy．
D． They listen to advice but never take it．
3.What can we learn from the passage?
A． Men never buy what they don't need
B． A man's shopping is often based on need
C． A woman goes shopping in order to look for cheap things
D． A woman's shopping is never based on need．
