Even after several weeks, every time I read this little story I start to cry:

My sister-in-law teaches physically and mentally handicapped children at a private school in Brooklyn. She recently   21   a Special Olympics and went to the starting line of the 100-metre dash with six   22   contestants.

As the starting whistle sounded, a boy tripped, fell and began to cry. All the other   23  stopped, turned and went back to help. Then they all   24   hands and went on to the finish line together. Needless to say, everyone in the stands   25  .

Why am I so moved? There are tears of joy   26   with tears of sadness. Tears of joy, just for the   27   friendship, selflessness and love embodied (体现) by these children. Tears of sadness, just for how   28   from such behavior we adults have wandered. Wouldn’t it be nice if, at least once in a while, we could pause in our race for money and power; turn around to see the   29   of those we have left behind; go back and   30   these less able ones to their feet; and then walk forward together with them, arm in arm.

A. witnessed       B. reported    C. interviewed       D. attended

A. eager      B. smart        C. breathless D. active

A. players B. members   C. runners      D. cheerleaders

A. held       B. shook        C. took   D. clapped

A. shouted   B. cheered     C. cried D. yelled

A. filled    B. mixed       C. joined       D. associated

A. mature B. unusual     C. common    D. pure

A. long       B. easily        C. far     D. much

Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children’s careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sports men or women? For many children it means starting schoolwork very young, and going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place. It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing.

Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is available from government for the best young sportsmen and women. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc.

Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional ( 专业的) trainers however, believe that it is only by training young that you can reach the top as a successful sports person. It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.

This article is probably taken from ________.

A. a letter                      B. an advertisement  

C. a personal diary               D. a newspaper article

According to the passage parents whose children show a special interest in a sport _______.

A. feel uncertain if they should let their children train to be sportsmen or women

B. try to get financial support from the government for their children’s training

C. have to get medical advice from doctors about training methods

D. prefer their children to be trained as young as possible

Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. When young, sports men or women won’t have much time for their schoolwork

B. Early training may damage their muscles.

C. Most children may become professional sports men or women after a long period of training.

D. It’s very expensive for parents to support their child’s development in sports.

_______ can become the best players after many years of training.

A. Most people                        B. Some people 

C. Only a few people              D. No people

Quit while you're ahead
I am one of those people who are terrible at saying no.I take on too many projects at once, and spend too much of my time doing things I'd rather not be doing.I get work done, but it's not always the best I can do, or the best way I could spend my time.
That's why my newest goal, both as a professional and a person, is to be a quitter.
Being a quitter isn't being someone who gives up, who doesn't see important things through to the end.I aspire (渴望?) to be the opposite of that.The quitter I want to be is someone who gets out when there's no value in what he's doing, or when that value comes at the expense of something more important.
A friend of mine once told me, "I knew I was an adult when I could stop reading a book, even after getting 500 pages into it." Strange though it sounds, we all tend to do this.We get involved in something, realize we don't want to be a part of it, but keep on going.We say "Well, I've already invested so much time in this, I might as well stick it out."
I propose the opposite: quit as often as possible, regardless of project status or time invested.If you're reading a book, and don't like it, stop reading.Cut your losses, realize that the smartest thing to do is to stop before your losses grow even more, and quit.Instead of reading an entire book you hate, read half of a bad one and half of a good one.Isn't that a better use of your time?
Step back for a second.Let's learn how to say "no" at the beginning, or in the middle, and free up more of our time to do the things we'd like to be doing, and the things actually worth doing. Saying no is hard, and admitting a mistaken yes is even harder.If we do both, we'll start to make sure that we're spending our time creating value, rather than increasing our losses.Let's be quitters together.
【小题1】The author wants to be a quitter, because he _____.

A.hopes to improve his personality
B.wishes to have more time for relaxation
C.expects to make more efficient use of his time
D.has found it hard to do several things at one time
【小题2】In what circumstances does the author suggest quitting is a good idea?
A.When you feel tired and need a rest.
B.When you know a task cannot be finished.
C.When you meet with difficulties along the way in your life.
D.When you realize what you are doing is not worth the time.
【小题3】If you stop reading a book you hate, the author might think that ______.
A.you are wise to cut your losses
B.it's a pity that you have wasted so much time
C.you should finish a book that you have started
D.you should regret choosing the wrong book
【小题4】The message the author tries to convey is to ______.
A.learn to say no
B.live your life to the fullest
C.create more value
D.stop doing many things at once

Hilary Smith belonged to a good family.But by the age of twenty, he had spent all the money the good old family had.He then had some trouble with the bank and was put in prison.He escaped from the prison and ran to Australia without delay.
Hilary did not like Australia. What he could do seemed to be one of two things: die or work.Then he remembered that he was not alone in the world.He had an aunt.
She was his father's only sister, but his father used to say she brought no glory to the family.Hilary, of course, tried to discover what she had done.It seemed that she had failed to marry a nobleman.Instead, she had chosen a husband who was connected with "trade".Of course as soon as she became "Mrs Parks" ,her brother considered her dead.Later on, Mr Parks died and left her a lot of money; but that did not bring her back to life in her brother's opinion.
Hilary discovered his aunt's address.Fortunately she remained faithful and honest to him even after she fell ill.So Hilary's star shone again, and soon he moved into her house and lived as comfortably as a sailor who had just reached harbour.He had only about a six pence in his pocket.
One thing was soon clear: his aunt was seriously ill, and nothing could cure her illness.Hilary was very worried.Fate had found a home for him, and was now going to throw him out of it.There was only one thing that could save him: her will.
"Will?" she said, "yes, I have made one.That was when I was a girl and had not much money.I left all my money to some religious people."
"Didn't you make another will when you were married?" Hilary asked.
His aunt shook her head."No," she said in a low voice, "There was no need.When I finally had a lot of money I found I had no relations."
On the next day he went to the public library and examined a book of law.It told him what he already believed.When a woman is married, an earlier will lose its value.A new will must be made.If no new will is made, the money goes to the nearest relation.Hilary knew that he was his aunt's only relation.His future was safe.
After a few months had passed, Hilary's problems became serious.He badly needed money.He had expensive tastes, and owed a lot of money to shopkeepers.They trusted him because his aunt was rich; but the debt was terrible.
Unfortunately his aunt did not want to discuss money matters at all.In the end they had a quarrel about the small amount of ten pounds.Hilary was not very angry.He began to wonder about a new problem.Was it kind to want his aunt to live.any longer? Was it not better for her to die now? While he was considering what to do, his aunt told him that she was going to send for her lawyer.So she was going to make a new will, Hilary thought.She might leave all her money to someone else.Soon he reached a clear decision.He must do a great kindness to the poor old woman.
One night when the old servant who had been nursing his aunt went off, he doubled the amount of some medicine.The total amount was too great and it could just put her to sleep forever.
"Thank you," his aunt took the glass from his hand with a grateful look."I want more than anything to sleep, and never to wake up again.Is that what you wish, Hilary? Don't blame me if I have some doubts about what you intended to do.Sick people get these ideas, you know.One thing I ought to explain to you.Mr Parks never married me.He already had a wife and couldn't marry again.That made your foolish father very angry with me...Well, if I am alive tomorrow I shall make another will in your favour.If I die tonight, you'll get nothing...No, Hilary, don't try to take the glass away.If you do that, I shall know and I don't want to know.Goodnight, Hilary."
Then, very carefully, she raised the glass to her mouth and drank.
【小题1】From the story ,we learn that Hilary's aunt was ______.
