| I grew up poor-living with my wonderful mother. We had little money, but plenty oflove and attention. I was 1 and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, he could still afford a dream. My dream was athletics. When I was sixteen, I started playing baseball. I could throw a ninety-mile-per- hour fastball and 2 anything that moved on the field. I was also 3 : my high school coach was John, who believed in me and, more importantly, taught me how to believe in myself. He 4 me the difference between having a dream and remaining true to that dream. One unusual 5 with Coach John changed my life forever. A friend helped me to find a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket for a new bike, new clothes and the 6 of saving for a house for my mother. Then I realized I would have to 7 up summer baseball and that meant I would have to tell John I wouldn't be playing. When I told John, he was 8 as I expected him to be. "You have your whole life to work," he said. "You don't have too many playing days in your life. You can't afford to waste them." I stood before him with my head 9 , trying to think of the 10 that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his disappointment in me. "How much are you going to make at this job, son?" he asked. "3.5 dollars an hour," I replied. "Well," he asked, "is $ 3.5 an hour the price of a dream?" That simple question made me understand the difference between 11 something right now and having a goal. I decided myself to play sports that summer and within the year I was taken on by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play baseball, and was 12 a $ 20 000 contact (agreement). In the same year, I bought my mother the house of my dream! | ||||

| Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents. However, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟). ● Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. ● Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. ● Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try! |
| 1. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you _____. |
| A. don't get to them often B. write a letter to them C. don't speak to them politely D. express yourself well |
| 2. If there's really a generation gap between you and your parents, you'd better _____. |
| A. have a talk with them often B. keep away from them C. agree with them all the time D. know about their values |
| 3. From the passage we learn that _____. |
| A. parents and children should not have a generation gap B. there are some good ways to bridge the generation gap C. parents should show love and respect to their children D. there are so many serious problems in families today |

| Have you ever received a gift that was so clearly not your taste that you wondered if perhaps it had been handed to you by mistake? Worse, have you ever given a present and watched your friend look as though she had opened the wrong box? Maybe she responded (回应) with a polite "Why, thank you" , but you knew you had missed the mark. Why do presents sometimes go wrong? And what do your choices (good and bad) tell about your personal qualities (品质)? Choosing the right gift is an art, I believe. It calls for empathy-the ability to put yourselfinto someone else's head and heart. We're all able to do this; in fact, we're born with a kind of natural empathy. After the earliest period of childhood, however, it needs to be reinforced (加强) by our parents, teachers, friends. When it isn't, we're not able to understand other people's feelings as sharply. This can show in the gifts we select, and so can many other emotional qualities. Think back to the presents you've given over the past year, the time and effort you put into your selection, how much you spent your thoughts while you were shopping, and your feelings when the receiver opened the package. Keep in mind that what you choose shows your mner world. Of course, you may express yourself differently with different friends, relatives, and other people you know. We live in a society where exchanging presents is an important part of communication. Paying no attention to the tradition won't make it go away. If you really dislike such a tradition, tell your friends ahead of time. |
| 1. The underlined expression "you had missed the mark" means "you had failed to _____." |
| A. make her feel better B. keep your friendship C. receive a present in return D. get the expected effect |
| 2. In the third paragraph, the writer tells us that _____. |
| A. attention should be paid to the receivers' responses B. one learns from what he did in the past C. the choice of gifts shows one's emotional qualities D. one should spend more time choosing gifts |
| 3. The best possible title for this passage is _____. |
| A. Ways of Choosing Gifts B. An Important Tradition C. Exchanging Presents D. Message in a Gift |

| Growing kids need sleep, as do people of all ages. Indeed, research shows that health and safety both suffer when we try to get by with too little shuteye. So it's fortunate that our bodies do such a good job of waming us when it's time to hit the sack. Like humans, other animals also take time out to rest. You've probably seen a lion dozing at the zoo, or maybe watched our dog snooze away lying in its bed. In fact, sleep is a necessity for every animal that's ever been studied. How long animals sleep, though, varies widely. Elephants and giraffes sleep only about 2 to 4 hours a day, while bats may nod off for up to 20 hours. Ducks sleep together, and the birds on the edge of the group sleep with the outside eye open and half of their brain awake-probably to keep watch while the other half of their brain snoozes. Some birds may even sleep while flying. The fact that all animals make time for sleeping, even under very dangerous situations, suggests that sleep is very important. And indeed, some facts suggest that sleep is important for leaming and forming permanent memories. But sleep may also be primarily a way for animals to save energy and stay out of harm. This may help explain why meat-eating creatures sleep more than herbivores, which are animals that live only on plants. Herbivores, like cows and zebras, need to spend more time searching for and grazing on food than meat eaters do, such as lions and other big cats. So a big cat might be better off sleeping for a while after it eats, rather than prowling around and risking injury. But that's just a guess. Scientists need to study other animals as well before they can fully understand the benefits (好处) of sleep and know which benefits are most important for a particular species (物种). One thing is certain: enough sleep is important to health and learning. So give in when a strong wish to sleep hits, and catch plenty of ZZZs. |
| 1. The underlined phrase "to hit the sack" means ____. |
| A. to eat something B. to drink something C. to get up D. to go to sleep |
| 2. From the last paragraph, we can infer ____. |
| A. enough sleep may improve your learning in class B. if you want to sleep in class, fall asleep immediately C. you are easy to give in if you have plenty of sleep D. if you have a strong wish to sleep, you are perhaps ill |
| 3. The main idea of the passage is about ____. |
| A. all people need sleep B. how animals sleep in the open air C. why animals need sleep D. when animals feel sleepy |

| Many everyday American expressions are based on colors. Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red-hot about something unfair. When they are red-hot, they are very angry about something. People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health. Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music. Blues is slow and sad. Someone who is blue is very sad. The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green. Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy (妒忌). Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks. Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the backside of the paper money. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. Blackouts were coming during World War II. Officials would order all lights in a city turned off to make it difficult for enemy planes to find a target in the dark of night. |
