Sports are the base of my life, next to my mother who raised me when my dad left us．I have been into sports since I was six years old． I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips, but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play.
When I was in Senior Two, I met the new school basketball coach, Brian Pawloski．I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before．I showed up to the tryouts and put out about 90% effort since I thought I’d make it with no problem．That was a big mistake.
Brian Pawloski is the hardest-working coach I have ever met．He didn’t expect 100% effort, he expected 200% effort．One example: he once made us do 40 suicide drills for the 40 lay-ups (投篮) we missed in a game．Some think this is crazy, but it isn’t．After this conditioning practice, as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink, I said, “coach, that was the best practice I ever had.” I was completely sincere．This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school．He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom．If I am not working on basketball, I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life’s challenges, including Wooden, Coach, and The Screwtape Letters．
In the first two years I slacked off, not putting forth my full potential．Now, unlike the coaches of my youth, this man was interested in how he did off the court．He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted． I can honestly say that no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball, but more importantly, in life．My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach, coach and influence their students．I will always remember my high-school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual．

Cooking programs and classes for children seem to positively influence children's food preferences and behaviors，according to a recent review．And，although the review didn't look at long-term effects of such programs，the findings suggest that such programs might help children develop long-lasting healthy habits．
This research comes at a time when childhood obesity（肥胖） rates have been rising rapidly．More than one-third of adolescents in the United States were obese in 2012，according to the U．S．Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)．This trend has been caused，at least in part，by a significant decrease in the amount of meals that people consume at home since the 1980s，according to background information in the study．
Cooking education programs，such as Food Explorers，teach children about new healthy foods and how to prepare them．They also stress the importance of eating five fruits and vegetables every day．A volunteer parent explains a new food to the group，and the kids make something based on the lesson，such as fruit or vegetable salad． Depending on the program，kids may be sent home with information about healthy foods to bring to their parents，the review explained．
The study team reviewed eight other studies that tested different types of cooking education programs．Children in these classes were between 5 and 12 years old，according to the review．The goal of the study team was to learn more about developing an efficient program to encourage healthy food choices that last a lifetime．The study found that it is particularly important to expose kids to healthy foods on a number of occasions．This makes them feel comfortable with the new foods，which helps them build healthy habits．
The study stressed the importance of getting parents involved in（参与） their children's eating habits．Parents who are unable to enroll their kids in a cooking class can achieve similar benefits by having their kids help them while they prepare meals at home．Children are more comfortable at home，which makes them more receptive to new foods because they will make the connection to a positive experience．
1.What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A． Eating out frequently causes obesity．
B． Childhood obesity is totally caused by eating habit．
C． Childhood obesity rates have been rising rapidly since 2012
D． Food consumption has decreased significantly since the 1980s．
2.On cooking education programs，________．
A． children learn how to prepare foods from their parents
B． children will learn how to cook in the company of their parents
C． children may learn information unknown to their parents
D． children focus more on cooking skills than on information about healthy foods
3.Which of the following is true according to the study?
A． Parents should let their kids cook independently at home．
B． A greater willingness to try new foods helps building healthy habits．
C． Children who participate in cooking programs are less likely to become obese．
D． Children who take cooking courses are more likely to choose fruits and vegetables as adults．
4.Which of the following categories does this passage belong to?
A． Education Systems
B． Science and Technology
C． Parent-child Relationship
D． Public Health Research
5.The purpose of the passage is _________．
A． to inform the reader
B． to entertain the reader
C． to discuss with the reader
D． to warn the reader

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。House Sitting
In many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting．It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away．
In Australia, many people travel．After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country． 1.
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. I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area．
3.There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel, and by replying to the advertisement, you can make arrangements to go and look after their home．
There are some requirements to be a house sitter．You must be a trusted person, so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything．You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go, so you need lots of free time．4.You need to be good with pets, able to care for cats and dogs, or other pets they may have．
Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the house owners have a short holiday．Sometimes it is for much longer．We have had one house sit for six months, while the home owner travelled to Europe．
5. Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there．One of the important things to get is 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 possible house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job．
A． I have done house sitting many times．
B． Thousands of people do this all the time．
C． It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries．
D． Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job．
E． You must take a little care over what your description says about you．
F． This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas．
G． You must have a good car, so you can travel to different parts of the country．
