All over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy, happy and help them to live longer． 
Sports change with the season. People play different games in winter and summer. Games and sports often grow out of people’s work and everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life; they use them in their sports, too. Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. Some sports or games go back to thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time． 
People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person’s character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace(體面)

The air pollution was so bad in Harbin, in China, on October 21,2013 that the city had to close roads and schools, and cancel* hundreds of flights from its airport.
News reports said the smog (a mixture of smoke and fog) was so thick that people couldn’t see more than 10 or 20 metres in front of them.
It is also said that people could not even see the person standing next to them. The city’s website said: “You can’t see your own fingers in front of you.”

People began to make robots about several hundred years ago. In the past, some of the early ones looked like animals or humans. However, they couldn’t talk and were pretty dumb. They worked like clocks and did the same things over and over again.

Different types of maps have different uses.
Tourist maps, for example, have signs to show places of interest in an area. When tourists read these maps, it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places. 

Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long journeys. Different types of roads are given different numbers. For example, if you want to go to Wood Green, you just follow No. 621 Road and keep looking at the road signs.

Distribution maps (分布圖) use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, where different languages are spoken, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.

Some maps, such as railway maps, use straightlines to show everything. This is easy for people to read. Trains are fast. People don’t have to think about small places they go past. They just need to know the two ends of their trips.

小題1:Jim is going to Beijing Zoo. Which map does he need most?

If you have failed in the past to try to make big changes in life, try again now, one tiny step at a time.
Every year it's the same. As December comes to an end, you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life. But as you start to write down your hopes for the new year, you think about the last year. You excitedly write down all the changes you are going to make, but by the end of January those ideas get lost in your busy life.
Here's a suggestion: Forget the too big, hard-to-achieve goals and just think about the small ones. “We often think that we have to do everything in big steps, even though it's so hard for us to reach it.” said Robert Maurer, who recently wrote the book One Small Step Can Change Your Life. “What we try to do is to begin with such a small step that we can’t find any excuse not to do it.”
“Kaizen”, a Japanese word, is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes (態(tài)度). During World War II, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes. After the war, the idea was brought to a rebuilding (重建) Japan. It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “kaizen”, which means “improvement”.
Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything.
小題1:At the end of December, people usually ___________ .
A．plan for the last yearB．fail to make big changes
C．try to lose their ideas D．think about the new year
小題2:Robert Maurer wrote a book to tell us ___________ .
A．we should do everything in big steps
B．how to find a small step without any excuse
C．we should try a lot of sudden changes
D．how to change one’s life with one small step
小題3: The underlined part “increase productivity” in the passage means “___________ “.
A．增加成本B．提高待遇C．提高生產(chǎn)率D．增加出口量
小題4: The writer of the passage suggests we should ___________ .
A．take a tiny step to achieve big goals
B．make changes at the end of the year
C．do few experiments with “kaizen”
D．do things with hard-to-achieve goals
小題5: Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．You can't find any excuse not to reach a big goal.
B．You can achieve your goals if you are not too busy.
C．”Kaizen” was brought to Japan during World WarⅡ.

My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, WE USED 2go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3 :-@ KIDS FTF. ILNY its gr8.
Can you understand this sentence? If you can't, don't feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it ’s great.
Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming(破壞)the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students' writing. They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).
Everyone should just relax, say linguists(語言學家)．They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says. "Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents."
Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today's teenagers become tomorrow's parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs.
However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it's important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."
Perhaps, we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn't use text language in my homework. Text is just for fun."
小題1:What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A．To give an example of foreign paragraph.
B．To show an example of creative method.
C．To express worries about using Netspeak.
D．To lead in the topic of Netspeak.
小題2:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Cynthia McVry points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly.
B．Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English.
C．David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing.
D．James Milroy says that language is changing and improving.
小題3: The expression "bet your bottom dollar" in paragrap5 means_______.
A．be fairly sureB．be greatly surprised
C．think it a pityD．find it interesting
小題4:What can be the best title for the passage?
A．Netspeak: A Widely-Used Language on Internet
B．Is Netspeak Harming the English Language?
C．Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning?
D．Netspeak: Advantages and Disadvantages
