Ball Management
Players should always keep a tennis ball in their hand or pocket during a match. Even the most patient tennis players despise waiting for their opponent to find a ball to serve(發(fā)球).
Behavior & Attitude
Even if you’re playing badly, you should not shout or look depressed in a friendly match. Undoubtedly, your attitude affects how you play, so try to have fun and stay positive.
Pace
Do not deliberately slow the game down. Play at the pace of the server and look ready. Servers also should not rush to start each point. You should re-do the point if you serve the ball before the receiver is ready. The receiver is out of luck, however, if he claims he was not ready after making an attempt at returning the serve.
For Spetators(觀眾)
Cheering
While it is seen as proper etiquette(禮儀）to remain silent during the live play, loud and spirited cheers are welcome after a hard-earned point. The players appreciate the recognition for their efforts and are encouraged to continue playing at a high level when the crowd is actively involved.
Leaving and returning to your seat
During live play it’s expected that all spectators will remain seated until the next break between games. Movements in the stands(看臺) can serve as a distraction(分心的事物) to the players and can also block the view of other audience.
Photography
The issue of camera shutter(快門) noise has earned a lot of attention in golf, but luckily for tennis fans it’s much less of a concern on the court. While the noise produced by the camera is not seen as a major issue, flash photography should be avoided during live play.
小題1:During warm-ups, tennis player ______________.

試題分析：文章介紹了網(wǎng)球運動中運動員有必須遵守的官方規(guī)定，但是還有人們必須了解的與官方規(guī)定同等重要的非明文規(guī)定。文章講述幾個重要的方面，例如賽前的熱身，對球的管理，比賽中的舉止和態(tài)度，速度等，另外人們也必須了解一些不成文的規(guī)定，例如歡呼，離開或回到你的座位上，拍照等。
小題1: C細節(jié)理解題。For the most part, you shouldn’t hit at full pace. Place your shots around the middle of the court so your opponent can easily return the ball without having to run around the court.句意為：在很大程度上，你不應該全速去打，要圍繞著場地的中心去打，你的對手能夠很容易地返球而不用來回的跑動。因此C是正確的。在熱身運動中，不用具有競爭性的去打。
小題2:C細節(jié)理解題。You should re-do the point if you serve the ball before the receiver is ready. The receiver is out of luck, however, if he claims he was not ready after making an attempt at returning the serve.句意為：你應該重新再來一次，如果接球的人沒有準備好。（在接球的人準備好之前，你應該重新再做），但是如果接球的人在試圖去接了之后，再聲稱他沒有做好準備，那他就太不幸了。所以C是正確的，在沒有準備好之前，不應該接球。
小題3:D細節(jié)理解題。The issue of camera shutter(快門) noise has earned a lot of attention in golf, but luckily for tennis fans it’s much less of a concern on the court.相機快門的噪音在高爾夫球比賽中引起了很大的關注，但是幸運的是對網(wǎng)球迷來說，有關噪音的問題還沒有太多關注。所以D是正解的，網(wǎng)球?qū)υ胍舻囊筮�是低于高爾夫球的。
小題4:C綜合理解題。文章從網(wǎng)球運動員和觀眾兩個方面講述了在網(wǎng)球比賽中應該注意的問題，包括動動員的熱身和觀從的拍照等，所在講述了在比賽當中應該注意的問題是文章的中心。故C是正確的。

Researchers claimed that waitresses who wear red get up to 26 percent extra in tips than they would wearing other colors. However, the team finds that the sexes tip very differently—with the bigger tips coming only from male customers.
No matter what color they wear, female diners will give the same kind of amounts for service every time. Yet men, whether they realize it or not, add anything between 15 and 26 percent more to a waitress in red than they would if it was the same waitress wearing a different color.
The test was simple. Take 11 waitresses in five restaurants over a six-week period and ask them to wear the same kind of T-shirt every day but change the colors. Previous research has suggested waitresses could earn more if they acted charmingly or wore more make-up than their colleagues. But this study, by the Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research, only changed the color of the T-shirt. Every other aspect from make-up to behavior remained the same.
When wearing either black, white, green, blue or yellow T-shirts, the size of the tips from both male and female customers was almost identical. But when they wore red, the size of the tips went up by between 15 and 26 percent from male customers, yet stayed the same from female ones. 
A total of 272 restaurant customers were studied by researchers Nicolas Gueguen and Celine Jacob for the international journal of the tourism industry.
Even as a T-shirt, it shows just how much the color red is thought, by men, to increase the physical and sexual attractiveness of woman, said the researchers.
The researchers wrote: As red color has no negative effect on women customers, it could be in their interest to wear clothes at work.
小題1:The underlined word “identical” in Para. 4 probably means____________________.
A．differentB．similarC．the sameD．close
小題2: According to the passage, in the research by the Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research waitresses could earn more by _________________.
A．wearing red T-shirtsB．putting on attractive make-up
C．changing the color of T-shirtsD．behaving themselves
小題3:Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A．Bright color can increase the physical and sexual attractiveness of women.
B．Waitresses in red make no difference to female customers.
C．Make-up makes no difference to man customers.
D．Whether male customers tips more or not depends on service.
小題4:What is the main idea of the passage?
A．People tip differently if waitresses wear different make-up.
B．Waitresses who wear red get more tips than they would wearing other colors.
C．Male customers are more interested in the red color.
D．Red color has no negative effect on female customers.

"Oh, you must have been a spoiled(寵壞的) kid. You must be really bossy. I wonder what you're going to be like to deal with?" That's often the response Angela Hult gets when people find out she's an only child, she told ABC News, Despite such negative(消極的) remarks, Hult has decided to have only one child herself. And she's not alone.
According to the US' Office for National Statistics, women approaching the end of their childbearing years had an average of l.9 children in 2004, compared with 3.1 for their counterparts in 1976. The percentage of one-child families in Britain had risen from 18 percent in 1972 to 26 percent in 2007.
But even though only children are becoming increasingly common, the traditional view that they're selfish, spoilt and lack social skills holds strong. Even parents of only children, like Hult, are made to feel guilty about having only one child. Worried that they're being selfish and endangering their child's future, they flock to online discussion forums seeking advice. Soon, however, they ask themselves: is this social prejudice really reasonable?
"There have been hundreds and hundreds of research studies that show that only children are no different from their peers(同齡人) ," Susan Newman, a social psychologist at Rutgers University in the US, told ABC News.
This raises another question: why are only children still viewed with such suspicion?
"There is a belief that's been around probably since humans first existed that to have just one child is somehow dangerous, both for you and for the continuation of your race," Toni Falbo, a professor of educational psychology, told the Guardian." In the past a lot of children died, You'd have had to be crazy to only have one. "
Times, of course, have changed and infant mortality(嬰兒死亡率) has largely reduced. So what do only children themselves say?
Kayley Kravitz, a blogger for The Huffington Post, grew up as an only child and highly recommends the experience. "Being an only child taught me the most valuable skill of all: the ability to be alone," she said.
小題1:Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A．Are only children lonely?
B．Are only children common?
C．Are only children dangerous?
D．Are only children different?
小題2:What does Susan Newman mean?
A．Only children are as good as their peers.
B．Only children are more selfish and spoiled.
C．Parents feel guilty about having only one child.
D．Parents will endanger their only child's future.
小題3:What is the common belief since human existed?
A．The infant death rate always stays high.
B．People are crazy to have only one child.
C．It's easy for only children to earn their living.
D．It's hard to continue the family line with only one child.
小題4:An only child like Kayley _______.
A．must be difficult to persuade
B．can possibly learn to be alone
C．should value special skills
D．need ignore bad experience
小題5:What's the author's attitude towards having only one child?
A．Neutral.B．Negative.C．Positive.D．Doubtful.

Maybe you know the saying, “When you point one finger, there are three fingers pointing back to you.” One wise man had a version of this       when he said, “Don't focus on the dust in your brother's eye while       the dirt in your own eye.” Why do we do this? Because criticisms are always        ourselves. When we criticize others, we do not expose them, but expose ourselves. We      our own weakness and smallness.
A story in the old tales       the difference in wisdom between the good and the bad. Once a king        both Nelson and Dick. The king asks Nelson to go out into the kingdom and       after finding someone less qualified than himself. Then he asks Dick to go out into the kingdom and return after finding someone       than himself.
When Fool Dick returns, he tells the king that he couldn't find anyone better than himself.       Wise Nelson says that he was       to find anyone less qualified than himself on his return.
Moral of the story is something about human      . Good people always look at their own       and faults and consider themselves less qualified than others. Whereas bad people always look at the shortcomings and faults of others and       themselves more qualified than others.

When Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it was a revolution in communication. For the first time, people could talk to each other over great distances almost as clearly as if they were in the same room. Nowadays, though, we increasingly use Bell’s invention for taking photographs, accessing the internet, or watching video clips, rather than talking. Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has appeared: the mobile phone.
The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973 by Dr Martin Cooper, the scientist who invented the modem mobile handset（手機）. Within a decade, mobile phones became available to the public. The streets of modem cities began to feature sharp-suited characters shouting into giant plastic bricks. In Britain the mobile phone quickly became the same with the “yuppie”, the new type of young urban professionals who carried the expensive handsets as status symbols. Around this time many of us said that we would never own a mobile phone.
But in the mid-90s, something happened. Cheaper handsets and cheaper calling rates meant that, almost overnight, it seemed that everyone had a mobile phone. And the giant plastic bricks of the 80s had changed into smooth little objects that fitted nicely into pockets and bags.
Moreover, people’s timekeeping changed. Younger readers will be amazed to know that, not long ago, people made spoken arrangements to meet at a certain place at a certain time. But later Meeting time became approximate under the new order of communication: the Short Message Service （SMS） or text message. Going to be late? Send a text message! It takes much less effort than arriving on time, and it’s much less awkward than explaining your lateness face to face and the text message has changed the way we write in English. Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important when you’re sitting on the bus, hurriedly typing “Will B 15mm late - C U @ the bar. Sorry! -).”
Alexander Graham Bell would be amazed if he could see how far the science of telephony has progressed in less than 150 years. If he were around today, he might say “That’s gr8! But I’m v busy rite now. Will call U 2nite.”
小題1:What does the underlined part in Para.2 refer to?
A．Houses of modern cities.B．Sharp-suited characters.
C．New type of professionals.D．Mobile phones.
小題2:According to Paragraph 4, why did Meeting time become approximate?
A．People were more likely to be late for their meeting.
B．SMS made it easier to inform each other.
C．Young people don’t like unchanging things.
D．Traditional customs were dying out.
小題3:If you want to meet your friend at the school gate this evening, which of the following message can you send him?
A．Call U@ SKUg8 2nite.B．IM2BZ2CU 2nite.
C．CU@ the bar g8 2nite.D．W84U@ SKUg8 2nite.
小題4:What does the passage mainly tell us about?
A．Alexander Graham’s invention.
B．SMS as a new way of communication.
C．New functions of the mobile telephone.
D．The development of the mobile phone.

Introduction
A lot of crime is against bicycles. About 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year and most are never found. You can prevent this happening by following a few careful steps.

Locks
Get a good lock. There are many different types in the shop. Buy one that has been tested against attack. Ask for a recommendation from a bike shop.
Marking

Registration
There are a number of companies who will mark your bicycle for you. They will then put your registration number and personal details on their computer database. Then if your bicycle is found it will be easy to contact you.

Your youngest son or daughter has just graduated from high school, and soon he or she will trade his or her bedroom in your home for a college residence hall. You’re starting to worry about the coming silence in your home and are wondering how you will fill the hours that you previously spent with your son or daughter attending his or her school and sporting events.
Take heart — the empty nest “is often worse in anticipation (預料) than in day-to-day practice”, says psychologist Bert Hayslip Jr.
Hayslip, who has studied retirement adjustment (調(diào)整) and other aging problems, such as aging sleeplessness, for many years, points out that, more often than not, children who leave do not completely cut off contact with their parents. He advises parents to think of it as a series of life events, instead of a sudden change. He also says an empty nest can cause bigger problems to surface “if a couple hasn’t looked after their marriage while raising their children”. According to Hayslip, some couples may find they no longer have anything in common once the children are out of the house.
Thinking of an empty nest as the loss of children makes the adjustment more difficult. “With the empty-nest syndrome (綜合癥), parents actually need to deal with the loss of the parenting control over children, not with having really lost their children,” Hayslip says. “They just have to find a new way to get along with their children.”
“Relating to their college-age children in this new way will come easily to parents as the months pass. As with many things, the passage of time heals the pain of loss,” Hayslip says.
小題1:What does the “empty nest” mean?
A．Children’s cutting off contact with their parents.
B．Children’s not liking spending time with their parents.
C．Children’s growing up and leaving home.
D．Children’s not accepting parents’ care and love.
小題2:What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to?
A．Retirement adjustment. B．Aging problem.
C．Sleeplessness.D．The reality of empty nest.
小題3:Why do many parents find it hard to adjust to the empty-nest life？
A．Because they think they have actually lost their children.
B．Because they often disagree with their children on many things.
C．Because their children completely cut off contact with them.
D．Because these parents don’t have anything in common.
小題4:According to Hayslip, what parents actually lose in an “empty nest” is _______.
A．their children’s love for them
B．their control over children
C．their interest in life
D．their contact with children

  You're rushing to get out of the door for a meeting, but you just can't seem to find your car keys. Or you've got tickets booked for a Caribbean cruise(坐船旅行) , but your passport disappeared. Or maybe you've just come back from a grocery store tour and realized…Hey, did I leave my baby in the checkout line?
Ok, you've probably never gone to the extremes of our last example (we hope), but most of us experience slip - ups like these on a daily basis. No matter how smart you may be, it doesn't mean your brain won't turn to Swiss cheese every so often, and no amount of e-mail reminders can help you remember where you left your TV remote or lucky penny.
But now, there is a new pair of eyeglasses that can help to find all those little things you know must be around somewhere :  Let's call it Vision 2.0.
The new glasses, which are being developed in a Japanese lab under the code name Smart Goggles,are similar to a Google search engine for your eyes. The high - tech glasses come with a camera that records everything you see on a daily basis, and boast built - in object recognition software that allows them to keep track of whatever comes across their field of vision. If you've got a collection of art sculptures that the camera can't recognize immediately, no problem :  Just say the name of each item,  and the glasses will memorize them right away.
The Smart Goggles' superb tracking abilities mean that whenever you're looking for your keys, your overdue library book, or yes, even your baby, all you have to do is to say the word and the Goggles' camera will show you the last time your desired object appeared on screen, telling exactly where you'll be able to find it.
Though the glasses are still too big for general use, the research team in Japan believes that they'll be able to make the modem glasses smaller to the size of normal glasses in the near future, making them the perfect new accessory for yourself or any other absent - minded Professor you know.
With these intelligent designs, you'll never lose anything again. Except maybe your glasses.
小題1:The best title for the passage should be _______.
A．A Habit of Forgetting Small Things
B．Usage of New High - Tech Glasses
C．How to Find Little Things Easily
D．Glasses Will Help Find Your Things
小題2:Which of the following is a slip - up according to the passage?
A．You can't find your watch before going to work.
B．You can't work out a math problem in given time.
C．You don't know how to deal with a naughty boy.
D．You don't know how to get to a hospital.
小題3:Which of the following statement is true about Smart Goggles?
A．They're a search engine used on the Internet.
B．They're a camera with recognition software.
C．They're software used in computers.
