         Football, to me, is more than just a game. I have probably learned more than valuable lessons from it than
    from school.
         When I joined the team freshman year, I didn't realize what I was getting into. Even though I had been
    playing since fourth grade and knew it was hard work, nothing would prepare me for the effort I would put
    into football that year. We worked all summer in the weight room and ran on the track to get in physical and
    mental shape before the season.
         See, football is more of a mental sport than anything else, so running on the track wasn't only about getting
    in shape. We would push our minds by running as hard as we could even if we felt like we were going to pass
    out. At the beginning, I was immature (幼稚的) and only thought of myself, sometimes even giving up when I
    was tired or hurting. Then after the third game I had a season-ending injury. Imagine working all summer and
    then only being able to play three games! I needed surgery on my arm and at least five months to recover.
         After freshman year I decided that I would always give my best effort. Playing varsity (大学代表队)
    football has taught me so much more than just what my tasks are on a particular play or how to block. I have
    learned to think about others first, and realized how important working hard is. Being with all my friends, even
    sweating and bleeding with them, really made us unite as a group of hard-working young men, who will
    succeed in life.
    1. What is the text mainly about?
    [     ]
    A. How the author dislikes the game of football.
    B. When the author began to play football.
    C. How the author has changed his attitude to football.
    D. What sport the author likes best.
    2. The author thinks football is _____.
    [     ]
    A. just a game
    B. of a mental sport
    C. hard to pass out
    D. not worth his effort
    3. From the text we can infer _____.
    [     ]
    A. the author joined the football team with a clear aim
    B. football only brought the author certain tasks
    C. the author worked all summer to get ready for the season
    D. the author never lost heart when he met with difficulties
    4. In the third paragraph, the phrase "getting in shape" probably means _____.
    [     ]
    A. becoming physically fit
    B. designing the playground
    C. losing weight
    D. measuring the track

         Jenny Bowen, an American living in Beijing, has been selected as the only American to carry the 2008
    Beijing Olympic torch on Chinese soil. She and seven other non-Chinese winners were from a pool of 262
    applicants from 47 countries. 
         When Bowen runs with the Olympic torch, she will not only be representing the United States. She will
    also be representing thousands of Chinese orphans, ABC news said.
         Bowen, a mother of two adopted (领养的) Chinese daughters, is executive director of Half the Sky
    Foundation, an organization which was set up in 1998 and aims to enrich the lives and improve the future
    for orphaned children in China.
         Nearly 10 years later, Bowen and Half the Sky Foundation have touched the lives of over 13,000 children.
    Half the Sky Foundation is now present in 36 welfare institutions in 28 Chinese cities. About 4,000 children
    are active in the program, which provides trained staff, educational tools, medical support and love for
    orphans.
         Bowen hopes that running with the Olympic torch will help draw attention to the children in China. She
    will be among the 19,400 runners who will carry the flame along an 85,000-mile,130-day route across five
    continents. Beijing organizers say it will be the longest torch relay in the Olympic history.
         Like Bowen, the seven other non-Chinese winners, including a German engineer and a Venezuelan
    designer, live in China. The other countries represented will be the Philippines, Colombia, India, Japan and
    Russia.
         According to Olympic organizers, candidates (候选人) were selected based on their "love of Chinese
    culture and history" and devotion to "communicating information about a real China to their native countries."
    Each runner will carry the torch for 200 meters on Chinese soil.

    D. She will carry the flame along an 85,000-mile route.
    3. How many factors for selecting a candidate are mentioned in the passage?
    [     ]
    A. One
    B. Two
    C. Three
    D. Four

    D. A US woman to carry the Olympic torch in China.

         Everyone has got two personalities-one is shown to the world and the other is secret and real. You don't
    show your secret personality when you are awake because you can control your behavior, but when you are
    asleep, sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their
    position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.
         If you go to sleep on your back, your are a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily
    influenced by fashion or your new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings.
    You are quite shy and you aren't very confident.
         If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and always easily get upset,
    you are very stubborn, but you aren't very ambitious (有野心的). You usually live for today not tomorrow. This
    means you enjoy having a good time.
         If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so
    you are often very defensive. You are shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your
    own. You are easily hurt.
         If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and
    weaknesses. You are usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you
    don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.

         Sometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch (门廊) will disappear. And
    instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You'll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just
    like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will read stories about the latest events, guided by a program
    that selects the type of news you want. You'll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want
    more information on this brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal
    computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspapers
    of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers
    will unite print and broadcast reporting, and offer news and analysis with video images of news events.
         Most of the technology is possible now, but making more people believe that they don't need to read a
    newspaper is the next step. But refusing computers may be stronger from within journalism. Since it is such
    a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before
    the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is
    making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.
         Despite technological advances, it could take tens of years to replace newsprint with computer screens.
    It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because
    newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry.
    1. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?
    [     ]
    A. They are cheaper than traditional newspapers.
    B. They are more convenient to read.
    C. You can choose the kind of voice you want to hear.
    D. You can easily save information for future use.
    2. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?
    [     ]
    A. They are cheaper than traditional newspapers.
    B. They are more convenient to read.
    C. You can choose the kind of voice you want to hear.
    D. You can easily save information for future use.
    3. It can be inferred that journalists are against computer newspapers because _____.
    [     ]
    A. they don't know how to use computer
    B. they think computer newspapers take too much time to read
    C. they think the new technology is bad
    D. they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers
    4. What is the best title of the passage?
    [     ]
    A. Newspapers are out of fashion.
    B. Newspapers of the future will be on the computer.
    C. New communications technology.
    D. Computer newspapers are well liked
