A
On Chen Chen’s way to the highest peak of the world, several frozen bodies as a reminder of how hard it is to climb Qomolangma. Chen recently became the first female college student to climb Qomolangma. She is a 25-year-old student at China University of Geosciences(中国地质大学).
It took her two years to get ready for it and another 40 days to live in Tibet.
But according to Dong Fan, director of this team who has been to the top three times, it is Chen’s great mental strength that got her to the top of the world.
But for Chen, her mental strength came at a price. When Chen just went to college, her father got cancer. Her family spent all the money on her father. To go on studying, Chen had to take a part-time job in a local sports club.
Chen learned endurance during her college life, which is what a good climber requires.
Their final push to the 8,844.43-meter summit from the 8,300-meter camp was only 3 to 4 kilometers. But she spent seven hours getting to the top.
At 8:16 am, May 19, Chen finally stood on the summit- for 15 minutes. It was long enough.
Following her trip to the top of the world, Chen is considering a professional climber as her career in the future.
Chen Chen is _______.
A. a professional climber B. a college student C. a good director D. a hard reminder
What makes Chen Chen get to the top of the world
A. Her great mental strength. B. Her father’s serious illness.
C. Her successful part-time job. D. Her colorful college life.
The underlined word “endurance” means _______ in Chinese.
速度 B. 力量 C. 金钱 D.耐力
From the text, we know _______.
Chen is the first woman to climb Qomolangma
Chen lived in Tibet for more than two years
climbing Oomolangma is hard but safe
Chen took 7 hours to finish the last 3 to 4 km

If you are into sports, you've seen it happen—tennis players jump over the net to shake hands after a hard match; football players exchange jerseys(运动衣) after ninety minutes of knocking each other around; even boxers touch gloves at the beginning of each round. Players in every event, from the spelling bees to golf(高尔夫), act in this way. It's all part of sportsmanship(体育精神), a great tradition in sports and competition. It means playing and being calm all through the match.
Everyone feels great when they win. In the last few years, you might see some players celebrate a goal with a long victory dance or talk big about their ability. However, it's always hard for people to say in public that they made a bad play. Good sportsmanship is what they really need. It's the golden rule of sports.
Good sportsmanship means that you play by the rules, talk politely to everyone during games and stay cool even when you lose the game. At the school sports meeting, for example, it's more important for you to know how to work as part of a team and cheer your teammates on. That may help you enjoy more success at your future work. In competition—as in life—you may not always win, but believe me, sportsmanship will help you get through and there is always the next match.
What match will last 90 minutes
Tennis. B. Football. C. Golf. D. Boxing.
The underlined word “bees” means _______.
goals B. competitions C. traditions D. success
Good sportsmanship is really important because _______.
A. it’s all part of daily life B. it’s a long victory
C. it’s the golden rule of sports D. it’s how to stay cool
8. Sportsmanship gets you through no matter whether _______.
A. you win or lose B. you play or learn C. you are happy or not D. you feel hard or not

Let sports light up the student life
As Grade Nine students, study appears more important than anything else. Speaking of sports, some students just move during breaks or have a little more time for some sports in PE classes after training for the necessary track and field events required in the future PE exam. Others even seem to care about nothing but study.
What a pity! As well as the palace of knowledge to realize our dreams, school should also be an excellent place to find partners for fun sports. Playing sports enables us to be full of energy and reduce stress. Besides, we can find friendship and learn the meaning of teamwork in many team sports. All the advantages of sports help us to be a better student, and later, a better citizen.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Let’s make time to have sports together and make the student life more colourful!
