It is fine day today and I will never forget this special day. I was chosen to be a member of the football team and send to take part in the school football match. I was excited, but believed I would score most. But in the first round I hurt my leg and couldn’t but to give up. I felt very sad. My best friend Tom comes up to me and said, “You are great! You still played for a few minute even after your leg hurt. You are a true winner.” I couldn’t believe my ears. For me the one scoring the most is the winner. But Tom said, “The one which tries his best is the really winner.” Deeply impressing by his words, I want to say “thank you” to him.

Imagine yourself in a small airplane 3,300 meters above the ground. The engines roar in your ears as you move towards the open door. Then you' re outside, falling with the wind whipping past your ears. As the ground rushes up at you, you open your parachute. 1.. All in all, you were in free fall for only 30 seconds---the longest 30 seconds of your life.
2.. However, a growing number of adventurers are taking the risk. Obviously skydiving isn't something you can just try, like fishing or bowling. So, if you want to attempt the sport, you'll need to go to ground school.
3.. The course is taught by licensed skydiving instructors who have been jumping for years.
They'll teach you how to keep your body position stable. You'll also learn to be constantly aware of your altitude and, most importantly, when to open your parachute.
Once you' re through with ground school, it's time to get up in the air. 4.. Two instructors always jump with the person, ready to pull the student's parachute open if he or she freezes up.
5.. It certainly seems dangerous when you' re watching someone fall at 200 km/ hr. But, if you believe the statistics, skydiving is actually safer than driving, with one fatality (死亡) occurring in approximately 60, 000 jumps. Moreover, most enthusiasts agree all fear stops the second your feet leave the plane, and when you land, the only thought in your mind is, "Wow! I want to do that again!"
A. However, a new jumper never jumps alone.
B. It takes years to forget the taste of fear from skydiving.
C. No doubt, you're thinking skydiving is a dangerous sport.
D. It explodes over your head, pulling you back and upwards.
E. For most of us, skydiving is something we only see in the movies.
F. Ground school is where you learn to jump, without leaving the ground.
G. Skydiving is the sport of jumping out of an airplane and falling freely through the air.

“You are going abroad and will live there? Oh, wonderful! You are so lucky.”
Perhaps your family and friends said similar things to you when you left home. But is it true all the time? Is your life in the new country always wonderful and exciting?
Specialists say that it isn’t that easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” (冲击) is the term specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. “There are three stages of culture shock,” say the specialists. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers adapt to their surroundings and finally enjoy their life there.
Culture shock arises from many obvious factors. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems such as the telephone, post office, or transportation may be difficult to work out. Even the simplest things become headaches. Still worse, the language may be difficult.
Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new self?image.
Culture shock leads to a feeling of disorientation (迷惘). This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create and escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience are the long term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
1.When people move to a new country, they ________.
A. find their new life always wonderful and exciting.
B. dislike the new surroundings from the beginning.
C. quickly get accustomed to the new culture there.
D. will get used to the new life with certain difficulty.
2.Based on the passage, which of the following results from culture shock?
A. weather conditions and customs
B. public service and transportation
C. feeling homesick and disoriented
D. language communication issues
3.According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, ________.
A. the fewer difficulties you will meet with abroad
B. the more problems you may have to face abroad
C. the greater success you are likely to make abroad
D. the less homesick you will eventually feel abroad
4.Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage?
A. Cultural shock affects and surprises those who live in a new culture.
B. A new culture makes everything difficult except the simplest things.
C. Since culture shock is painful, we can never get over it completely.
D. Escaping by staying inside does solve the problem of culture shock.

So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason, they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy.House sitters might have to care for pets.Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning.2.

5. Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there.One of the important things to get are references from the home owners where you have stayed.A reference is a written letter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well.You can show these letters to prospective house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.

Grandma celebrated her fifty-third birthday just weeks before grandpa died of cancer in 1965. Although his passing was very difficult for her, I think their shared struggle to make his life longer taught grandma that good health was not to be taken for granted, and she made up her mind to live the rest of her own life as fully and as long as she could. One day, when she announced to attend lessons at the Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Portland, Oregon, where she lived, we rolled our eyes in embarrassment and helplessly wished she would just stay home and bake cookies as normal grandmothers did. Many years filled with countless dance lessons passed before we learned to appreciate the wonder of having a dancing grandma.
I suppose grandma's primary motivation for wanting to learn to dance was social. She had been a shy girl, always very tall and heavy, and had married into grandpa's quiet lifestyle before developing any elegance or confidence in her personal appearance. Dancing, on the other hand, filled her life with flash lights, wonderful parties, beautiful dresses, handsome young dance instructors, and the challenge of learning. Although the weekly dance lessons did not change her ample, two-hundred-pound figure, grandma surprised everyone with energetic performances on the dance floor, which soon gave her as much elegance and confidence as any Miss American competitor.
Having taken weekly dance lessons for years, my grandma learned various dances easily and was soon participating in dancing matches all over the Northwest. When I was fourteen, grandma proudly invited me to watch her compete in one of these matches to be held in the grand ballroom of the Red Lion Inn. My attitude was still unenthusiastic at that point, but to make her happy, my mother and I attended the match. As if to prove me wrong, grandma made a wonderful showing in every event she entered. I thought she was truly the queen of the ball during the dance, and my thoughts were shared by the judges a short time later when she was awarded a gold cup for her outstanding performance.
1.What did grandma learn from grandpa's death?
A. Good health was not there for everyone.
B. She should take dance lessons.
C. She had to struggle to live a better life.
D. She should wear beautiful dresses.
2.Normal grandmas usually ________ in the author's point of view?
A. took dance lessons
B. did some exercises at home
C. took care of grandchildren at home
D. did some housework at home
3.The author felt ______ when he was invited to watch grandma's match.
A. happy B. proud
C. excited D. uninterested

E
Manners nowadays in big cities like London are particularly non-existent. It’s nothing for a big, strong schoolboy to elbow an elderly woman aside in the dash for the last remaining seat on the tube or bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her.
This question of giving up seats in public transport is much argued by young men, who say that, since women have claimed equality, they no longer deserve to be treated with courtesy(谦恭有礼) and that those who go out to work should take their turn in the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be physically as strong as men. Even if it’s not agreed, however, that young men should stand up for older women, the fact remains that courtesy should be shown to the old, the sick and the burdened. Are we really so lost to all ideals of unselfishness that we can sit there indifferently reading the paper or a book, saying to ourselves “ First come, first served”, while a gray-haired woman, a mother with a young child or a cripple stands? Yet this is too often seen.
Older people, tired and easy annoyed from a day’s work, aren’t angels, either—far from it. Many a brisk argument or an insulting quarrel breaks out as the weary queues push and shove each other to get on buses and tubes. One cannot commend(推崇) this, of course, but one does feel there is just a little more excuse.
If cities are to remain pleasant places to live in at all, however, it seems necessary, not only that communication in transport should be improved, but also that communication between human beings should be kept smooth and polite. Shop assistant won’t bother to assist, taxi drivers growl at each other as they dash dangerously round corners, bus conductors pull the bell before their desperate passengers have had time to get on or off the bus, and so on. It seems to us that it’s up to the young and strong to do their small part to stop such deterioration (恶化).
1.What is the writer’s opinion concerning courteous manners towards women?
A. They no longer need to be treated differently from men.
B. Young men should give up their seats to young women.
C. “Lady first” should universally practiced.
D. Special consideration ought to be shown to them in some cases.
2.What does “ the rat race” in paragraph 2 probably mean in the passage?
A. A race that involves many people
B. A well-paid job
C. A fierce competition
D. A race for rats
3.According to the passage, communication between human beings would not be smoother unless ____.
A. people become more considerate towards each other
B. people are not so tired and easily annoyed
C. women are treated with more courtesy
D. public transport is improved
4.The main purpose of the passage is to ______.
A. call on people in big cities to pay more attention to politeness
B. blame the schoolboy’s rude behavior towards elderly women on tube or bus
C. criticize the fast pace of life in most of the big cities
D. tell young men to give their seats to elderly people and women
