閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、和D)中,選出最佳選項。
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

During Nelson Mandela’s 19 years in the prison on Robben Island, one particular commanding officer, Badenhorst, was the cruelest of them all:
“A few days before Badenhorst’s leaving the prison, I was called to the main office. General Steyn was visiting the island and wanted to know if we had any complaints. Badenhorst was there as I went through a list of demands. When I had finished, Badenhorst spoke to me directly.
He told me he would be leaving the island and added: ‘I just want to wish you people good luck’. I do not know if I looked dumbfounded (目瞪口呆的), but I was amazed. He spoke these words like a human being and showed a side of himself we had never seen before. I thanked him for his good wishes and wished him good luck too.
I thought about this moment for a long time afterwards. Badenhorst had perhaps been the most cold–blooded and cruelest commanding officer we had had on Robben Island. But that day in the office, he had showed that there was another side to his nature, a side that had been hidden but still existed.
It was obvious that all men, even the most seemingly cold-blooded, have a heart of kindness and that, if their hearts are touched, they are able to change. Actually, Badenhorst was not evil; his inhumanity (不人道) had been encouraged by an inhuman system. He behaved cruelly because he was rewarded for cruel behavior.”
1.When did the story happen?
A. Before Badenhorst left the prison.
B. Before Mandela gave demands.
C. After General Steyn took over the prison.
D. Just when Mandela was set free.
2.How did Mandela feel at what Badenhorst said?
A. Awkward. B. Surprised. C. Angry. D. Upset.
3.Why did Badenhorst become the cruelest according to Mandela?
A. He was born evil.
B. He seemed cold-blooded.
C. He was easily changed.
D. His cruelty was rewarded.
4. Which could be the best title of the passage?
A. Hide oneself or express oneself?
B. Hard to change or easy to change?
C. Cruel by name or cruel by nature?
D. To be a prisoner or to be a commander?

Owls(貓頭鷹) are mysterious creatures. We often think of them as scary. They sometimes live in abandoned houses. They fly without a sound through backyards at night. In stories, they appear with ghosts. When we hear an owl's familiar “wh?ooo...whooo...”,it can make us feel very frightened. Owls fly silently, without even a whisper of wings moving through the air. It's as though they appear out of nowhere—like ghosts on wings. Owls fly and hunt on the darkest of nights. An owl's night habits make it unique. Do these creatures of the night possess strange powers?
Owls possess unusual powers of sight and hearing, but they are not supernatural powers. They are natural adaptations that let them live most efficiently(高效地) at night. There is no reason to fear owls. Their habits make them helpful to humans. By hunting mice and other rodents(嚙齒目動物),owls help to keep a natural balance between plant and animal life. Without owls, there would be a large number of rodents in farmers' fields and storage barns.
More than 100 species of owls occupy a variety of habitats around the world. A few oceanic islands and the Antarctic have no owls. The world's owls come in large, medium, small, smaller, and smallest. For example, the Eurasian eagle owl—one of the largest—has a body that is two to three feet long, with a wingspan(翼展) of up to five and one?half feet. The North American elf owl (the world's smallest owl) is five to six inches long and has a wingspan that measures slightly more than one foot.
Most male and female owls of the same species look alike, although females are usually larger. In some species, the female's colors are like those of the trees or grass where she makes her nest.
Baby owls, called chicks, stay with their parents until they are about three months old. They soon find their own hunting areas, where they may stay for the rest of their lives. Some owls can live 20 years or more.
1.Most people regard owls as________.
A.clever B.hard?working C.terrifying D.shy
2.Owls help humans in that they________.
A.help preserve the balance of nature
B.frighten rodents away from humans
C.have unusual powers
D.help guard backyards
3.What is special about owls?
A.They fly silently.
B.They are night hunters.
C.They possess supernatural powers.
D.They can be found around the world.
4.The third paragraph is mainly about owls'________.
A.habitats B.sizes C.species D.wingspans

Nowadays, many people go on diets and work out to keep a good figure. But do you know that your house may have an effect on your figure? Some experts say how you design your home could play a part in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off . You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.
Draw the curtains aside and turn on the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious(難為情)when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes, big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake(攝入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
1.The passage is especially helpful for those who care about_______.
A. their home comforts B. house buying
C. healthy diets D. their body shape
2.A home environment in blue can help people_________.
A. digest food better B. burn more calories
C. reduce food intake D. regain their appetites
3.What are people advised to do at mealtimes?
A.Use smaller spoons.
B.Play fast music.
C.Eat quickly
D.Turn down the lights.
4.What can be a suitable title for the test?
A. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?
B.Ways of Serving Dinner
C.Effects of Self-Conscious
D.Is Your House Making You Fat ?

Dear Mr. President,
I am writing to express my concern about the sports facilities in campus. I have noticed that our school has very limited resources in term of students’ opportunities to do sports.
It is known to all what sports are very important to young people. If they have an access to good sports facilities, young people can adopt a healthy lifestyle and become more confident.
I suggest build a new playground, where should be designed for students with different interests. They should have a different section for each activity and available to students all year round. I believe so a sports area will meet our sporting needs.
Thanks for your reading.
Yours faithfully,
Li Ming
