| One girl decided to study judo (柔道) although she had lost her left arm in a car accident. The girl began lessons with an old Japanese judo instructor. The girl was doing well. So she couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the instructor had taught her only one move. "Instructor," the girl finally said, "Shouldn't I be learning more moves?" "This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know," the instructor replied. Not quite understanding, but believing in her teacher, the girl kept training. Several months later, the instructor took the girl to her first tournament. Surprising herself, the girl easily won her first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, her opponent became impatient and charged. The girl skillfully used her one move to win the match. Still amazed by her success, the girl was now in the finals. This time, her opponent was bigger, stronger and more experienced. For a while, the girl appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the girl might get hurt, the referee called a time-out. She was about to stop the match when the instructor intervened (干预). "No," the instructor insisted, "Let her continue." Soon after the match restarted, her opponent made a serious mistake: she dropped her guard. Instantly, the girl used her move to pin her opponent. The girl had won the match and the tournament. She was the champion. On the way home, the girl and her teacher reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the girl gathered the courage to ask what was really on her mind. "Instructor, how did I win the tournament with only one move?" "You won for two reasons," the teacher answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm." The girl's biggest weakness had become her biggest strength. |
| 1. What can we learn about the girl? |
| A. She was disabled in an accident. B. She disliked judo training. C. She learnt several moves. D. She won the first two matches hard. |
| 2. The underlined word "overmatched" probably means _____. |
| A. impatient B. depressed C. defeated D. trapped |
| 3. The girl won the championship because of _____. |
| A. her bravery B. her skills C. her tricks D. her strength |
| 4. Which of the following is probably the best title of the story? |
| A. The Story of a Girl B. A Disabled Girl C. Defense Matters D. Weakness Becomes Strength |

| Cyber language is popular among Chinese netizens, who create English words to reflect novel phenomenon in society. "Geilivable", combining pinyin of Chinese characters Geili (giving strength) with the English suffix for adjectives, literally means "giving power" or "cool". Similarly, "hengeilivable" means "very cool", and "ungeilivable" means "dull, not cool at all". "Antizen" refers to the group of college graduates who, earning a small salary and living in small rented apartments, are like the tiny and laborious ants. David Tool, a professor with the Beijing International Studies University said it's very interesting to combine Chinese with English to create new words. "English is no longer mysterious to the Chinese people. They can use the language in a flexible way according to their own experiences," he said. Chinese words and expressions were created, as well, by netizens. One example was "Suan Ni Hen". This three- character expression, which originally meant "you win" with the first character carrying the same pronunciation as garlic in Chinese, is used to satirize (讽刺) high garlic and food prices this winter. Chinese people use the character "bei" before a verb to show a passive voice, and it is used by netizens to show the helplessness in front of false conclusions and fake media reports. For instance, "zisha" means "suicide" while "beizisha" means "be officially presumed to have committed suicide", and "xiaokang" means "fairly comfortable life" while "beixiaokang" means "be said to be living a fairly comfortable life". Wu Zhongmin, a professor at the Party School of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, saw the phenomenon of word creation as a natural response of young people to social issues. "Cyber language is more vivid and it shortens people's distances," he said. |
| 1. The passage mainly tells us that _____. |
| A. cyber language is popular among all people B. cyber language is of great fun C. cyber language needs to be taught at college D. cyber language in China is popular for it's relation with society |
| 2. Which of the following is NOT true? |
| A. Ungeilivable means "dull, not cool at all". B. Antizens live in small rented apartments with small salaries. C. Suan Ni Hen refers to the highest food prices ever. D. Beixiaokang means "be said" to be living a comfortable life. |
| 3. What can we infer from the phenomenon of word creation? |
| A. It's getting more difficult to understand cyber language. B. Young people are more likely to respond to nature. C. Social phenomena are more easily reflected in cyber language. D. The best way to create new cyber words is to combine Chinese and English. |
| 4. Chinese netizens created English words by _____. |
| A. combining pinyin of Chinese characters with the English suffix B. using the character carrying the same pronunciation C. combining Chinese characters with the English D. putting the character"bei" before an English word |

| It seems that every week someone becomes "the first" or "the youngest" or even "the first married couple" to do something that doesn't seem to be very useful to the rest of us. Why do they do it? Don't they have better things to do with their time and money? Human beings have already climbed the highest mountains, sailed across the oceans and flown around the world. But there's still a lot of the universe left, and the bottom of the ocean is still a bit of a mystery, you just need a lot of technology to explore them. So, those who feel the need for adventure can only do things that have been done before. In May of this year a British man became the first person to walk alone from Canada to the North Pole. Personally, if I wanted to visit the Arctic, I'd rather go as a tourist on a cruise ship, with a helicopter trip to the North Pole included in the price. But OK, this man decided that he wanted to walk. The problem was that he went in the spring when the ice begins to melt and break up. So he got stuck on a lonely piece of ice and a plane had to be sent in to rescue him. These sorts of rescues are making many Australians angry with these record breakers. People trying to break sailing or rowing records get into trouble in the seas. So the Australian navy has to send ships to save them and this costs the government millions of dollars. I suppose we can't just leave them to drown but we should give the bill to the people who are rescued. |
| 1. According to the author, the so-called record breakers _____. |
| A. do not benefit other people at all B. inspire people to continue exploring C. are boring and should be stopped D. are usually not wealthy enough |
| 2. We can infer from the second paragraph that _____. |
| A. there are no high mountains for people to climb B. nothing is left for people to explore in the universe C. it's beyond ordinary people to explore the unknown D. human beings could fly around the world long ago |
| 3. Many Australians are angry because the record breakers _____. |
| A. often get into trouble B. never use a cruise ship or a helicopter C. never pay their own costs D. satisfy their needs at the cost of others' interest |
| 4. What is the writer's attitude towards the record breakers? |
| A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Uninterested. D. Neutral (中立的). |

| To forgive may be great, but no one ever said it was easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible-and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. 1_____ So how do you start the recovering? Try following these steps: Calm yourself. 2_____ You just take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don't wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you has no intention of apologizing. 3_____ So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time. Take the control away from your offender (冒犯者). 4_____ Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. 5_____ If you understand that person, you may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance, feat- even love. To gain the same feeling, you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender's point of view. Don't forget to forgive yourself. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge. But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it. |
