What’s the main idea of this passage? A. Middle school students want to play basketball. B. Yao Ming makes NBA closer to China. C. There’ll be no Americans left in the NBA. D. There are many new stars from China in the NBA. C Soapy’s life was fine during spring, summer, and autumn, but not so good in winter. When November arrived, he always found the way to stay indoors, away from the cold, and had three meals a day without paying one cent. The trick was simple: he broke the law. Last autumn, when nights got too cold to sleep in the park, Soapy realized it was time to make plans for his annual winter trip. He walked over to a big department store around 10 a. m. one morning and sent a stone crashing through a glass window. Then he stood calmly by the window, waiting. As he had expected, a policeman came running. Soapy said that it was he who broke the window. Yet the policeman did not believe him. Soapy also failed in his second scheme: the woman he tried to bother was, much to his surprise, very happy and in fact thanked him for being the first man ever to say such sweet words to her. It was about noon that Soapy came near a good restaurant. He decided to walk in for a big free lunch. When it was time for the bill, he told the manager he had no money and suggested that he have him arrested. The manager, realizing what was going on, asked Soapy to follow him into the kitchen, where a big pile of dirty dishes was waiting to be washed. Three hours later, the tired Soapy returned to the street. Then the night came, and it was too cold for Soapy to sleep in the park. So he walked about until he found himself standing in front of a church. The beautiful song reminded him of his childhood. “I have been bad. But I am still young. I’ve got to change. I’ll stop going to prison every winter. I’ll get a job tomorrow. I’ll-- Just at this moment, the policeman appeared again and arrested him. The next day the court sentenced him to three months in prison. 查看更多

“Some day, there will be no Americans left in the NBA.” Said 12-year-old Xing Tao, who joined his school’s team two years ago, after watching Yao in a televised NBA game. “The players will all be Chinese, like Yao!”

To China Yao is a home-grown superstar who helped make the world’s first basketball league closer to Chinese players. To the NBA, the 2.23-metre centre offers an opening of a different sort into the world’s largest new market.

Yao’s NBA first appearance against the Indiana Pacers in October reached 287 million households in China. By contrast (对照), there are only about 105 million households in the US. That game might have been a bit of a let down to  Yao’s fans. He played just 11 of the 48 minutes, had two rebounds and got no points.

Compare that with his performance on December 19, and also against Indiana, Yao won 29 points and 10 rebounds. “This was one of the most exciting games I’ve had,” Yao said after Houston’s 95-83 victory.

“Yao Ming has brought the NBA closer to the Chinese,” said NBA spokeswoman Cheong Sau Ching, who is based in Hong Kong. “That makes the dream seem achievable for other people in China.”

The 22-year-old Yao is not the country’s first player in the NBA; Wang Zhizhi broke down that wall as a player with the Dallas Mavericks(小牛队)in April 2001. But Yao’s combination of modesty and his skills make him a favourite back home.

60.What’s the direct reason for Xing Tao to join the school’s basketball team?

A.He watched an NBA game

B.He liked basketball

C.He hoped to play for Houston Rockets

D.He had a dream that he would become a basketball star.

A.Middle school students want to play basketball

B.Yao Ming makes NBA closer to China

C.There’ll be no Americans left in the NBA

D.There are many new stars from China in the NBA

62.What does “letdown” in paragraph six mean?

A.failure        B.surprise      C.disappointment     D.sadness

A.He has performed excellently            B.He is modest

“Someday, there’ll be no Americans left in the NBA,” said 12-year-old Xing Tao, who joined his school team two weeks ago after watching Yao Ming in a televised NBA game. “The players will all be Chinese, like Yao.”
