    When an NBA player is young he thinks he can win the championship by himself. It is only later when he has aged and been through many battles  36  he learns an important lesson: there is no “I” in “team”.
    There is  37  better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics. Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were all  38  on three different teams. Yet, none of them had any titles to show for it.  39  last season, they  40  to sacrifice money and individual statistics to play together. Garnett and Allen joined Pierce on the Celtics and  41  the NBA in the process.
    It started in simple ways. Garnett and Allen are two of the most intense athletes in the world. They treat every second of every practice like it is the NBA  42 . If you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. So, the young guys on the Celtics started giving their full effort too.
    Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years. He  43  shoot the ball many times a game. But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and  44  on defense. His  45  showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that  46 .
    When the Celtics  47  and the game was almost over, Garnett, Pierce and Allen would come out of the game. But they wouldn’t just sit on the bench.  48 , they stood and cheered and  49  for their teammates. They wanted to support their friends and  50 .
    Now, the guys who don’t play know they can still  51  the game by cheering so they scream and cheer when Garnet, Allen and Pierce are playing. The Celtics have developed a strong  52 . They are more than just teammates. They are  53 .
    The result: the Boston Celtics won the 2008 NBA championship and are considered the favorites to  54  the Eastern Conference championship again this year.
    There is a saying that  55 , “A successful team beats with one heart.” If that is the case, the Celtics may have the biggest heart in the NBA.

    We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? "When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy (嫉妒) my luck?" "And Paul-why didn't he pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late.
    Why do we go wrong about our friends - or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You're a lucky dog." that's being friendly. But "lucky dog"? There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.                                                                                                                                                                                   
    "Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for" is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up (包藏) in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important. It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.
    How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture (姿态)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people to you may save another mistake.
    小题1:This passage is mainly about ____.
    A．how to interpret what people say
    B．what to do when you listen to others talking
    C．how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people
    D．why we go wrong with people sometimes
    小题2: According to the author, the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that ____
    A．we fail to listen carefully when they talkB．we tend to doubt what our friends say
    C．people usually state one thing but means another
    D．people tend to be annoyed when we check what they say
    小题3: In the sentence "Maybe he doesn't see it himself." In the second paragraph, the pronoun “it” refers to _____
    A．being friendlyB．a bit of envyC．lucky dogD．your luck
    小题4:When we listen to a person talking, the most important thing for us to do is____.
    A．notice the way the person is talkingB．take a good look at the person talking
    C．mind his lone, his posture and the look in his eyes
    D．examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner, his tone and his posture

    In the college-admissions wars, we parents are the true fighters. We’re pushing our kids to get good grades, take SAT preparatory courses and build resumes so they can get into the college of our first choice. I’ve twice been to the wars, and as I survey the battlefield, something different is happening. We see our kids’ college background as a prize demonstrating how well we’ve raised them. But we can’t acknowledge that our obsession(痴迷) is more about us than them. So we’ve created various justifications（辩解）that turn out to be half-truths, prejudices or myths. It actually doesn’t matter much whether Aaron and Nicole go to Stanford.
    We have a full-developed panic; we worry that there won’t be enough prizes to go around. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever. What causes the hysteria(歇斯底里) is the belief that scarce elite（精英）degrees must be highly valuable. Their graduates must enjoy more success because they get a better education and develop better contacts. All seems right but mostly wrong. We haven’t found any convincing evidence that selectivity or prestige matters. Selective schools don’t systematically employ better instructional approaches than less selective schools. On two measures—professors’ feedback and the number of essay exams selective schools do slightly worse.
    By some studies, selective schools do enhance（提高） their graduates’ lifetime earnings. The gain is reckoned at 2-4% for every 100-point increase in a school’s average SAT scores. But even this advantage is probably a statistical fluke(偶然). A well-known study examined students who got into highly selective schools and then went elsewhere. They earned just as much as graduates from higher-status schools.
    Kids count more than their colleges. Getting into Yale may signify intelligence, talent and ambition. But it’s not the only indicator and, surprisingly, its significance is declining. The reason: so many similar people go elsewhere. Getting into college is not life’s only competition. In the next competition—the job market and graduate school—the results may change. Princeton economist Alan Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph.D. program. High scores on the GRE helped explain who got in; degrees of famous universities didn’t.
    So, parents, take it easy（lighten up）. The stakes (利害关系) have been vastly exaggerated. Up to a point, we can rationalize our pushiness. America is a competitive society; our kids need to adjust to that. But too much pushiness can be destructive. The very ambition we impose on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment. One study found that, other things being equal, graduates of highly selective schools experienced more job dissatisfaction. They may have been so conditioned to being on top that anything less disappoints.
    1. Why does the author say that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?
    A. They have the final say in which university their children are to attend.
    B. They know best which universities are most suitable for their children.
    C. They have to carry out intensive surveys of colleges before children make an application.
    D. They care more about which college their children go to than the children themselves.
    2. Why do parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever?
    A. They want to increase their children’s chances of entering a prestigious college.
    B. They hope their children can enter a university that offers attractive scholarships.
    C. Their children will have a wider choice of which college to go to.
    D. Elite universities now enroll fewer student than they used to.
    3. What does the author mean by “kids count more than their colleges” Line1, para.4?
    A. Continuing education is more important to a person’s success.
    B. A person’s happiness should be valued more than their education.
    C. Kids’ actual abilities are more important than their college background.
    D. What kids learn at college cannot keep up with job market requirements.
    4. What does Krueger’s study tell us?
    A. Getting into Ph.D. programs may be more competitive than getting into college.
    B. Degrees of prestigious universities do not guarantee entry to graduate programs.
    C. Graduates from prestigious universities do not care much about their GRE scores.
    D. Connections built in prestigious universities may be kept long after graduation.
    5. One possible result of pushing children into elite universities is that______
    A. they earn less than their peers from other institutions　　
    B. they turn out to be less competitive in the job market
    C. they experience more job dissatisfaction after graduation　
    D. they overemphasize their qualifications in job application

    We come by business naturally in our family. Each of the seven children in our family worked in our father’s store. 21  we worked and watched, we learned that work was about more than  22  and making a sale.
    One lesson stands out in my 23  . It was shortly before Christmas. I was in eighth grade and was working evenings, straightening the toy section. A little boy, five or six years old, came in. He was  24   a brown torn coat with dirty sleeves. His shoes were scuffed and his one shoelace was torn. The little boy looked poor to me ---too poor to 25  to buy anything. He looked 26  the toy section, picked up this item and 27 , and carefully put them 28  in their place.
    Dad came down the stairs and walked over to the boy. His blue eyes 29  and the dimple（酒窝） in his cheek stood out as he asked the boy what he could do for him. The boy said he was looking for a Christmas 30  to buy his brother. I was impressed that Dad treated him with the same respect as any adult. Dad told him to take his 31  and look around. He did.
    After about 20 minutes, the little boy carefully picked up a toy 32 , walked up to my dad and said, “How much for this, Mister?”

    “That’ll just 37  it,” Dad said as he 38  the sale. Dad’s reply still 39  in my ears. When the little boy walked out of the store, I didn’t notice the dirty, worn coat or the single torn shoelace. What I saw was a happy child with a 40  .

    Bicycles for rent could become as common as newspaper stands and mail boxes on Germany’s street corners if a scheme launched by Deutsche Bahn is successful.
    The German rail operator has launched a bicycle-hire scheme designed for simple one-way trips.
    “It’s a new concept,”said Andreas Knie, head of the project.
    Users must first register with Call-A-Bike at a cost of 15 euros（US$14.7）. With a simple phone call, they can hire one of the many bikes parked outside stations, at a cost of 3 to 5 cents per minute. At the end of their journey, they ring a computer and tell it where the bike is parked.
    The bikes are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
    No one will be breaking speed records with Call-A-Bike bicycles. They weigh in at 25 kilograms, at least double the weight of a normal bicycle, though they do have eight gears（齿轮）.
    “They are pretty heavy, but we don’t want people taking them on the train or into the subway,” Knie said.
    They are also designed with parts that do not fit a normal bicycle. Even the screws are irregular and the bike looks so odd that thieves would stand out.
    Vandalism and theft have led to the downfall of previous schemes which date back to Amsterdam’s 1966“White Bike”scheme.
    In that short-lived experiment, anti-establishment groups painted bikes white and left them around the Dutch capital.
    However, many were taken permanently and repainted, while the police took away others on the basis that ownerless bikes were street rubbish.
    Copenhagen, Vienna and Helsinki also have free bike schemes, in which users deposit a coin in Copenhagen’s case 20 crowns（US$2.50）—to free a bike from a rack.
    “The advantage these schemes have is ease of use. But because they’re so cheap, people tend to hold on to the bikes and then there are none on the streets,”the person in charge said.
    Oslo is also planning a bike-hire system where users will pay a symbolic fee of 50 Norwegian crowns（US$6.50）for unlimited use in the city for a year.
    Users will buy an electronic identity card as a key that will register when the bike is parked or taken from a rack.
    59. How many European countries have already launched the free bike schemes?
    A. Four.                                B. Five.                                C. Six.                                   D. Seven.
    60.What can be learned about Amsterdam’s 1966“White Bike”scheme?
    A. The bicycles were twice as heavy as a normal bicycle.
    B. A heavy rain stopped the scheme from being carried out.
    C. Some bicycles were damaged or stolen and the scheme failed.
    D. The police ended the scheme for traffic safety
    61.What can be inferred from the text?
    A. Bicycles for rent have become as common as newspaper stands and mail boxes on Germany’s street corners.
    B. The bikes in Germany are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
    C. German bicycles for rent are designed specially so that they will draw people’s attention.
    D. Germany has taken some measures to stop the bicycles for rent from being taken away.
    62.Which do you think is the best title?
    A. Free Bicycles for Europeans.                                  
    B. Tough Transporters.
    C. Customer is King.                                                      
    D. Unpractical Scheme.

    More than 20,000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third floor window. Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.
    Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to $50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver’s responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.
    However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing(倒退) your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid（正当的） medical certificate（证书）which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these cases supply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court you have been excused from wearing.
    60. This passage is probably taken from ______.
    A. medical magazine    B. a legal document
    C. a textbook    D. a government information booklet
    61. Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle ______.
    A. reduces road accidents by more than half
    B. reduces the death rate in traffic accidents
    C. saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour  
    D. saves more than 16,000 lives each year
    62. It is the driver’s responsibility to ______.
    A. make the front seat passenger wear a seat belt
    B. make the front seat children under 14 wear a seat belt
    C. stop children from riding in the front seat
    D. wear a seat belt each time he drives
    63. For some people, it may be better to ______.
    A. pay a fine rather than wear a seat belt   
    B. wear a seat belt for health reasons
    C. (not to) wear seat belt for health reasons  
    D. get a valid medical certificate before wearing a seat belt
