閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

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 (投籃) 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．

1.Different from other coaches, Coach Brian ________．

A．concentrated on skill training

B．expected the team to do well in their studies

C．trained the team to the edge of death

D．a(chǎn)sked the team to do more reading than training

2.The underlined phrase “slacked off” in the last paragraph probably means ________.

A．paid no attention

B．showed no interest

C．made less effort

D．had less passion

3.In the author’s eye, Coach Brian is ________.

A．professional and serious

B．hardworking and honest

C．skilled and cruel

D．strict and helpful

Revenge is one of those things that everyone enjoys. People don’t like to talk about it, though. Just the same, there is nothing more satisfying or more rewarding than revenge. The purpose is not to harm your victims but to let them know that you are upset about something that they are doing to you. Careful planning can provide you with relief from annoying coworkers, gossiping friends or talkative family members.

Coworkers who make comments about the fact that you are always fifteen minutes late for work can be taken care of very simply. All you have to do is get up extra one day. Before the sun comes up, drive to each coworker’s house. Reach under the cover of your coworker’s car and disconnect the center wire that leads to the distributor（配電盤）cap, the car will be unharmed, but it will not start, and your friends at work will all be late for work on the same day. If you’re lucky, your boss might notice that you are the only one there and will give you a raise.

Gossiping friends at school are also perfect targets for a simple act of revenge. A way to trap either male or female friends is to leave false messages on their lockers(柜子). If the friend that you want to get is male, leave a message that a certain girl would like him to stop by her house later that day. With any luck，her boyfriend will be there. The girl won’t know what’s going on, and the victim will be so embarrassed that he probably won’t leave his home for a month.

When Mom and Dad and your sisters and brothers really begin to annoy you, harmless revenge may be just the way it makes them quiet down for a while. The dinner table is a likely place. Just before the meal begins, throw a handful of raisins (葡萄干) into the food. Wait about five minutes and, after everyone has begun to eat, cover your mouth with your hand and begin to make strange noises. When they ask you what the matter is, point to a raisin and yell. “Bugs!” They’ll throw their food in the dustbin, jump into the car, and head for McDonald’s. That night you’ll have your first quiet, peaceful meal in a long time.

A well-planned revenge does not have it hurt anyone. The object is simply to let other people know that they are beginning to bother you.

1. According to the passage, a harmless revenge is ________.

A. to amuse the victim

B. to hurt nobody emotionally

C. to react to those who bother you

D. to prevent one from disturbing others

2.As a harmless revenge, you might come first and get a raise by ________.

A. pleasing your boss

B. destroying your colleagues’ cars

C. making your colleagues come late

D. getting up earlier than your colleagues

3. The family members threw their food in the dustbin because ________.

A. they wanted to eat out

B. they didn’t like the food with raisins

C. they wanted to have a peaceful meal

D. they thought their food had been ruined

4. The topic of the passage is how to ________.

A. make a harmless revenge

B. silence gossiping friends

C. avoid talkative family members

D. deal with annoying coworkers

Many kids don't drink enough water daily, according to a new study. The study's lead author, Erica Kenney, at first planned to look into the amount of sugary drinks kids were drinking in schools. However, during her research she found that many kids were simply not drinking enough water.

Kenney and her team examined data from a group of 4,000 children, aged 6 to19, between the years of 2009 and 2012. The data was taken from the National Health and Nutrition Survey,a study on the health of children in the United States conducted each year by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention..

While looking through the survey results, she noticed that more than half of the kids who took part in the study were dehydrated (脫水的). Of' that group, boys were 76% more likely than girls not to have enough water in their system. Nearly one quarter of the kids in the survey reported drinking no plain water at all.

“These findings highlight(突出) a possible health issue that wasn't given a lot of attention in the past," Kenney said in a statement. “Even though for most of these kids this is not an immediate and great health threat, this is an issue that could really be reducing quality of life and well-being for many children and youth."

The United States-National Agriculture Library says average kids need between 10 to 14 cups of water every day. This water can come from a mix of drinks and foods that contain high amounts of water, such as celery, melons or tomatoes. It is also recommended that fluids（液體）come from water instead of sugary drinks that are high in calories and can lead to weight problems.

1.What was Erica Kenney's purpose in doing the study?

A. To study if kids drink enough water daily :

B. To prove that sugary drinks are harmful to kids

C. To show what kind of sugary drinks kids love.

D. To find out how many sugary drinks kids drink at school.

2.According to the findings of Erica Kenney's study, we know that ________.

A. school kids cannot find drinkable water easily

B. boys are more likely to get dehydrated than girls

C. sugary drinks are very popular with school kids

D. most kids know the importance of drinking plain water .

3.From the last paragraph we learn that kids________.

A. should drink plain water to lose weight

B. can try to take in water from sugary drinks .

C. can eat celery, melons and tomatoes for water .

D. should drink no more than 10 cups of water every day

C. are at risk of health problems

D. don ' t drink enough water daily

The post caused a heated discussion online．Some criticized the offending behavior, saying, “I don’t want to visit the Palace Museum only to find relics being carved by immoral tourists．” Others said it is common that ancient relics in Palace Museum are being damaged and laws should be introduced．

Apart from random carvings, the Palace Museum has met several cases of shameful behaviors this year．In March open-air relics were trampled(踩踏) and in May unclothed models were photographed riding on ancient relics in the museum’s courtyard．

Similar incidents take place every year．In 2013, a visitor named Liang Qiqi cut “Liang Qiqi has come here” on a vat in the tourist attraction, causing a mass internet hunting．Worse still, in 2013, a Chinese boy carved his name on a stone sculpture at an ancient temple in Egypt and produced widespread reaction worldwide．
