But every morning as early as 3 am, he pulls out his textbooks and starts studying. He now holds 15 bachelors or masters degrees from universities across Italy, and is already attempting his 16th.Thanks to books, I feel free, he tells AFP. After all, the words share the same root, referring to the Italian words libro (book) and libero (free). he certificates proving his talent hang on the walls of his study, showing people that he was writing new pages in the Guinness Book of Records. Inxxhe gothiseighthdegreeinmotorskills. And before that he already had degrees in sociology, literature, law, political science and philosophy, most from Romes famous La Sapienza University, one of the oldest in the world. Since then, he has added seven other degrees to his list, including one in criminology(犯罪學(xué)), one in military strategies and the latest in tourism in February. All of these three were from online universities.Each time I set myself a new challenge to see how far my body and my brain can go, says Mr Baietti.25.

When my high school offered an all-year program, I jumped at the opportunity. It would pay for almost everything and all I had to do was get a plane ticket. I knew where I wanted to go: Spain, the country of dancers wearing flowing red dresses. So when I heard that I was going to Hungary, I was pretty shocked. But I decided to make the best of it, since it was, after all, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Before I knew it, I was on the airplane, leaving for Budapest International Airport, Hungary.I had times when I almost gave up. Hungarian is the hardest language on the planet, Cultural differences occasionally embarrassed both my peer teens and me. I had to give up eating carrots, my beautiful favorite, for they think carrots are rubbish in their country. The change in the landscape was amazing, looking nothing like skyscrapers, bullet trains, cars, and people in tiny houses that I had been accustomed to. Gradually, I fell in love with the relaxing lifestyle, the warm-hearted people, and getting home at 2：30pmat the latest from school. And I was sad to leave on my very last day. Having the host family who took me as one of their own members was the best thing Ive ever experienced. From my little sisters, I learned how to embrace life to its fullest. From my brothers I learned that its OK for a boy to run around the house. From my host parents I learned to stay positive, to smile, and that when you pick the right persons and take their hands, suddenly, you bee friends.28HowdidJonathanfeelwhenhewastoldtogotoHungary?A.

When somebody asks her, How do you hear? She responds, How do you hear? Is it only with your ears? For Glennie, and for us too, listening is not only hearing, it is understanding. We need to listen to what is said and unsaid, and also how it is said. Its important to hear what people say accurately. As Mark Twain said, The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug（螢火蟲）. If you miss something or youre not sure youve heard accurately, ask the speakers. At this point youre not evaluating, just looking for accuracy and understanding. Here are some ways to get clear about what they say and dont say. Why are they saying this now, instead of sooner or later? Why are they emphasizing these points, instead of something else?Listen to how it is said. People send signals about what they mean with their voices and body language that sometimes differ from the words they say. While going through the next points, think about someone whose real meaning you might sometimes miss, and see if any of these signals might e up. First, voices. When others speak, notice changes in their volume, pace, and tone. Second, body language. Notice gestures, eye contact, and facial expressions. Do these sync what they are saying, or do they tell a different story? Third, emotions. What is the person apparently feeling? Now you might not know for sure, but be considerate, open to understanding, and ask thoughtful questions.32Whats the writers purpose of mentioning Evelyn Glennie?ATo give an example of wise wordsBTo introduce a world-famous musicianCTo help explain the meaning of listeningDTo encourage us to fight against disability33What can we learn from what Mark Twain said?AIt is important to have a good knowledge of English wordsBPeople should know words can be used in many different waysCEnglish is a very plicated language with a large vocabularyDThe slight difference between words may result in misunderstanding34What does the underlined wordsyncprobably mean?AMatchBProveCDescribeDAnalyze35Which is the best title of this passage?ASpeak While You Listen BListen Beyond WordsCRead Between Lines DThink As You Talk第二節(jié)(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。How to Set GoalsWhether you have small dreams or high expectations,setting goals allows you to plan how you want to move through life.
