Molly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity. As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team. She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home. She says, "When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race. They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey." Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn't prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. 'One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn't move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.' By the end of October last year, she had raised more than ?50,000 for charity. She says, 'Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it's the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.'1.What does the word 'extraordinary' mean in the title?2. The sentence "?my husband thought I was bored ?" in Para. 4 meant that my husband thought I felt().3. The word 'section' in Para. 4 most probably means here ().4. Which of the following is nearest (closest) in meaning to 'rough' in the sentence 'One night the sea was very rough ?' in Para. 5?5. The last paragraph suggests that ().(1).A、very ordinaryB、very unusual and surprisingC、not special(2).A、dissatisfied because I had nothing better to do at homeB、annoyed because I had to wait long for my children to come back homeC、sad because all the children left me when they grew up(3).A、group of the jobB、part of the trainingC、part of the route of sail(4).A、not exactB、difficultC、not smooth because of huge waves(5).A、the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancerB、many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so she needn't do anything before the journeyC、she should not forget dancing during the trip

DOn May 23,1989, Stefania Follini came out from a cave at Carlsbad, New Mexico. She hadnt seen the sun for eighteen and a half weeks. Stefania was in a research program, and the scientists in the program were studying body rhythms(节奏). In this experiment Stefania had spent 130 days in a cave, 30 feet in depth.During her time in the cave, Stefania had been completely alone except for two white mice. Her living place had been very comfortable, but there had been nothing to tell her the time. Shed had no clocks or watches, no television or radio. There had been no natural light and the temperature had always been kept at 21℃.The results were very interesting. Stefania had been in the cave for over four months, but she thought she had been there for only two. Her body clock had changed. She hadnt kept to a 24-hour day, she had stayed awake for 20-25 hours and then had slept for 10 hours. She had eaten fewer meals and had lost 171bs in weight as a results! She had also become rather depressed（抑郁）.How had she spent her time in the cave? As part of the experiment shed done some physical and mental tests. Shed recorded her daily activities and the results of the tests on a computer. This computer had been specially programmed for the project. Whenever she was free, shed played cards, read books and listened to music. Shed also learned French from tapes.The experiment showed that our body clocks are affected by light and temperature. For example, the pattern of day and night makes us wake up and go to sleep. However, people are affected in different ways. Some people wake up naturally at 5:00 am, but others dont start to wake up till 9:00 or 10:00 am. This affects the whole daily rhythm. As a result, the early risers, on the other hand, are tired during the day and only come to life in the afternoon or evening!第68题：Stefania stayed in the cave for a long time because ______.A. she was asked to do research on miceB. she wanted to experience lonelinessC. she was the subject of a studyD. she needed to record her life
