KIDS in a Sudanese refugee (难民) camp stir up a cloud of dust as they kick around a football. NBA superstar Tracy McGrady watches from a distance before offering to buy the kids a grass patch(草坪)for $1,000.
Perhaps he sees a Ronaldinho rising up out of the African soil. Or maybe he just wants to do something – anything – to give these children some hope. But he is told, politely, that grass is not what the kids need.
This scene appears in 3 Point, a new documentary, which shows the Houston Rockets star coming face-to-face with the reality that life is more than sport.
McGrady, 29, writes on his website that he traveled to Africa because he was tired of only reading about it in the news. “Who were the faces behind the statistics? ” he said. “I needed to see it for myself. ”
And he did. He stepped out of his mansion (别墅) and flew to a place torn to bits by war and famine (饥荒). He slept in a tent. He dodged minefields (躲避雷区). He talked with people who have been tortured. And he swallowed his pride.
But no one should blame McGrady for wanting to buy the kids a patch of grass. Sport gave him a chance, so perhaps he thought it would do the same for the refugees.
McGrady was eyed by NBA scouts as a teenager and he didn’t bother going to college. Instead, he leaped right into the NBA. Since that move, basketball has given him a handsome living, but one very far removed from the lives of ordinary people. As McGrady would learn in Africa, most people see sport as just a break from life’s difficulties. They don’t mistake it for life itself.
Only McGrady knows how this Africa trip changed him, but I’d bet that, at the very least, it has given him a new sense for what is truly meaningful.
McGrady doesn’t own an NBA championship ring. He hasn’t risen to the heights of Kobe Bryant or Michael Jordan. But, perhaps, now he knows he doesn't have to in order to truly make a difference in the world.
76.The refugee children probably need most.
A.clean drinking water B.a grass football pitch
C.necessities of survival D.a tent to sleep in
77.What can we know about McGrady from the passage?
A.Basketball made him what he is today.
B.He is an NBA superstar as great as Kobe or Jordan.
C.He didn’t show his talent for basketball as a teenager.
D.He taught children to play football in refugee camp.
78.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.McGrady wanted to buy kids a grass pitch because he spotted a football genius among
them.
B.McGrady left his comfortable life behind to visit Africa because he wanted to meet fact to
face with the people.
C.McGrady was blamed for ignoring the kids’ real needs by offering something unnecessary.
D.McGrady’s future aim will be nothing but compete for an NBA Championship ring.
79.McGrady learned from his visit to Africa that .
A.he needn’t improve his basketball skills to reach the heights of his seniors
B.sport gave him a chance and means everything to him
C.people in hunger can never understand the importance of sport
D.What’s truly meaningful can be a world of difference to different people
Section C(5分)
Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
A.Get
angry, live longer B.Nothing to see on the surface C.Try to overcome angry D.Which one causes which? E.Who is likely to get cancer? F.Why join stress and cancer? |
80. One of the reasons scientists think that there is a link between stress and cancer is the idea that there may be a cancer-prone personality. The cancer-prone(倾向的)personality consists of a set of personality traits(特征)that are found more frequently in people who have cancer than in those who do not.
81. What personality traits make up the cancer-prone personality? Most often, people who are polite, unaggressive, and agreeable are said to have this type of personality. They seem to have trouble showing, when they are angry. Even in situations in which they should be angry, they appear to be calm and happy.
82. When faced with a stressful event, people with the cancer-prone personality do not show stress outwardly. Instead, they keep their emotions bottled inside. They repress, or hide, their emotions, even from themselves.
83. The cancer-prone personality is liked to the likelihood of getting cancer, and same personality traits seem to help affect a cancer victim’s recovery. For example, some students have looked at cancer patients who accept the cancer without getting angry. These patients get sick faster and they die sooner than people who become angry at their cancer and fight the disease.
84. However, it is important to keep in mind that some scientists interpret these research findings differently. First of all, not everyone who has a cancer-prone personality gets cancer. And not everyone who has cancer has cancer-prone personality. Even more important, there is no proof that having a cancer-prone personality causes cancer. In fact, it may be the other way round: getting cancer may cause people to develop a cancer-prone personality.

A gray sweater hung limply on Tommy’s empty desk, a reminder of the depressed boy who had just followed his classmates from our third-grade room. Soon Tommy’s parents, who had recently separated, would arrive for a conference on his failing schoolwork and disruptive behavior. Neither parent knew that I had invited the other.
Tommy, an only child, had always been happy, cooperative and an excellent student. How could I convince his father and mother that his recent failing grades represented a broken-hearted child's reaction to his loved parent’s separation and divorce?
Tommy's mother entered and took one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Soon the father arrived. Good! At least they were concerned enough to be prompt. A look of surprise and irritation(气恼)passed between them, and then they pointedly ignored each other.
As I gave a detailed account of Tommy's behavior and schoolwork, I prayed for the right words to bring these two together, to help them see what they were doing to their son. But somehow the words wouldn't come. Perhaps if they saw one of his smudged, carelessly done papers.
I found a crumpled(压皱的)tear-stained sheet stuffed in the back of his desk, an English paper. Writing covered both sides-not the assignment, but a single sentence scribbled(潦草的书写)over and over.
Silently I smoothed it out and gave it to Tommy's mother. She read it and then without a word handed it to her husband. He frowned. Then his face softened. He studied the scrawled words for what seemed an eternity.
At last he folded the paper carefully, placed it in his pocket, and reached for his wife's outstretched hand. She wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled up at him. My own eyes were brimming, but neither seemed to notice. He helped her with her coat and they left together.
In his own way God had given me the words to reunite that family. He had guided me to the sheet of yellow copy paper covered with the anguished out pouring of a small boy's troubled heart.
The words, "Dear Mother ... Dear Daddy ... I love you ... I love you ... I love you."
72.Which of the following word has the closest meaning to the word “disruptive”(Line3,Para.1)mean?
A.terrible B.careless C.cheerful D.good
73.What caused Tommy’s failing behavior and schoolwork?
A.His parents’ ignorance of his education.
B.His parents’ separation and divorce.
C.His parents’ lacking love to him.
D.His parents’ firm administration to him.
74.What helped Tommy’s parents see their influence on their son?
A.A sheet of paper in his desk.. B.Tear stains on Tommy’s papers.
C.Tommy’s broken heart. D.A gray sweater.
75.You can infer from the passage that .
A.The teacher found suitable words to persuade Tommy’s parents reunite.
B.Tommy’s love to his parents saved their marriage and the whole family.
C.Tommy’s parents scheduled their time to come to school together.
D.A broken family might cause a child’s bad behavior and his shortage of love.

Prospective newlyweds in an Indonesian province are being given one more promise to honor: planting trees to help slow the rapid deterioration of the country’s forests.
As Indonesia marks World Environment Day on last Thursday, grooms-to-be and brides-to-be(准新娘)in Gorontalo, a rugged mountainous province on Sulawesi island, are being required to plant 10 seedlings supplied by the local government, said Hasyim Alidrus, head of the religious affairs office.
It is part of a nationwide “re-greening” initiative launched by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono at the Bali Conference in Bali last November and millions of trees were planted across the vast archipelago(群岛)after the meeting. The program, critics say, is largely symbolic in a nation that is losing its forests one of the fastest rates in the world due to illegal logging, mining, new oil palm plantations and slash-and-burn land clearing. Conservationists say deforestation on Borneo island has claimed an area the size of some European countries and continues virtually unabated.
That has hardly dampened(使沮丧)the enthusiasm of 27-year-old khairul Baso and his fiancee, Andini, who received two 6-month-old teak trees along with palm, fruit and flower seedlings ahead of their wedding this weekend.
The couple is just one of nearly 900 that this year received trees from Gorontalo’s religious affairs office, where they are required to register their marriage documents. Couples are required to plant the trees to receive their legal paperwork.
65.What is the purpose of telling Indonesians to plant trees before marrying?
A.To help slow the rapid deterioration of Indonesian forests.
B.To mark World Environment Day.
C.To launch a nationwide “re-greening” initiative.
D.To fight against illegal logging, mining and new oil palm plantations.
66.Where can the couples get the trees that need planting?
A.In the national park. B.From the local nursery.
C.Across the vast archipelago. D.From the local government.
67.All of the following cause the rapid deterioration of the country’s forests except .
A.the cleaning of the roads B.illegal cutting
C.new oil palm plantations D.the mining industry
68.What can we infer from the passage?
A.This activity of planting was launched by an official called Hasyim Alidrus.
B.The grooms and brides can’t get their legal paperwork without planting trees.
C.All the couples-to-be are very pleased and ready to accept this new requirement.
D.After the president had claimed this initiative, Indonesian deforestation stopped.

Teachers in some secondary schools in Britain are worried that their jobs may become impossible shortly unless something can be done to restore discipline in the classrooms. In the problem schools, 41 in large cities, a small minority of pupils deliberately disrupt lessons. Teachers complain that they cannot teach their classes 42 .
Some within the teachers' unions consider that the society is 43 because it permits the students to do so. There is no one to restrict the small children. Instead, they are 44 to express their individuality. Such children are naturally 45 to accept school discipline when they grow older. 46 , modern teaching techniques appear to put much more emphasis on personal enjoyment than on serious academic work. This might be teaching the child to put his own selfish interests 47 his duties to the communities in which he lives.
Perhaps the problem can be solved by improving facilities for the psychological guidance of these difficult children or by better 48 between the school and parents-for the parents may be mainly responsible for their children’s behavior. But some people believe that there ought to be a return to more old fashioned methods. At present in some schools teachers may not even slap a child who misbehaves, but more and more people feel that slapping might 49 desired results.
