第一节
I like many kinds of sports, of which basketball is my favorite. I first became interested in basketball at the age of nine, when my father taught me how to play it. I have been practicing hard, Now I’m a member of our school basketball team and I often play basketball for about half an hour after school or on weekends. Sometimes we have competitions with students from other schools. The reason why I like basketball is that it can bring me lots of happiness and help me make friends. My favorite basketball star is Yao Ming. Besides, I like Michael Jordan very much.
第二节
After reading the diary, the son was filled with tears and the letter made him sink in his memory. He began to reflect on the days when he used to sit together with his father. His father would patiently answer the same question 23 times while he lost his temper after just four times. The son thought to himself: If I am old, how will my son look at me Will they think of me as a burden Will he shout at me because of my poor sight, poor hearing or poor understanding
Feeling ashamed, the son looked at his father and held his hands gently. He made an apology, begging his father to forgive him for his bad behavior. He said: “I am sorry, father. It is you who have cared me ever since I was a child, showing your selfless affection on me. Now it’s my turn to look after you.” With tears in the eyes, they hugged each other tightly.

W: Last Christmas, I was invited to Canada by my aunt Judy. I have never been to other countries. So I was so excited about the trip that I didn’t sleep well for several nights. On the day of leaving, my father thought that I might be caught in the traffic jam if I took a bus to the airport, so he drove me there. But our car broke down on the way. As the time went by, I began to worry about missing the flight. I decided to stop a car to take me to the airport. Many cars went past me with high speed before a white Bora stopped by my side. Thanks to the driver, I arrived at the airport just in time at 1:50 p.m. to catch my plane which would leave ten minutes later. It was my first flight and I was a bit nervous. When the plane was taking off, my ears felt funny. I was really sick. Luckily it was all over after a while. On my window seat, I could enjoy the bird’s-eye view of beautiful cities, land, grass, forests and blue sea. Sometimes our plane flew right over the white clouds. Unluckily I didn’t see any hills. Maybe I missed them. What a wonderful view!

B
When my teenaged son became seriously ill, terrible times for my family began. Our once-happy home became tense and depressed. My husband and I were exhausted under the great stress of caring for my son. It was as if we forgot how to communicate—we couldn’t have a simple conversation without a fighting. Our marriage was on the point of breaking up.
One evening, my son and I were talking about gifts. I recalled my first Valentine’s present from my husband, a kazoo. I was awkward when I received it because I couldn’t get it to make a sound although I am a professional saxophone player. However hard I tried, it just never worked. The kazoo eventually got packed away and forgotten. But my son was interested and insisted on seeing it. After some trouble, I found it.
“You couldn’t get a sound What’s so hard about it ” my husband asked, amazed. He took the kazoo and blew. Nothing happened. Surprised, he tried again. Still there was no sound. Frustrated, he tried again, only to produce a funny sound like an angry bumblebee trapped in the mouth of a bear. We burst into laughter. My son took a turn to play the kazoo. He did no better than us, causing more laughing.
Seeing his face light up, we felt as if the darkness had lifted and a ray of sunshine was let in. It was the best ten minutes of the past couple of years. The mood stayed light for the rest of the evening. It didn’t solve anything. But this experience with the kazoo brought some change in our hearts that always reminds us that there are still things to laugh at and enjoy, and that we can still connect as a family.
25. What affected the relationship of the couple
A. Quarrels between the couple over marriage.

There’s no doubt that football is the global sport. Though basketball, tennis, and other sports are popular too, nothing comes close to football. Being played in every country in the world, football provides dozens of superstars. The numbers are greater when compared to any other sport, and this drives the popularity of football up.

Football has its origin (起源) in China and has a history of more than 2,000 years. However, modern football originally appeared in Britain in the 19th century. Folk football matches had been played before in many cities and towns, but never on a professional level.
Football became a winter sport game played in different schools. The rules were carried out by each school, and this made it difficult for players to play an official game with each other. It all changed in 1849 at the University of Cambridge that invented a set of standard rules known as the Cambridge rules of football. From that moment, a new star sport was born.
By the early 20th century, football had spread all across Europe. In 1904, FIFA was set up. There are seven original members, including France, Denmark and Spain, FIFA became the governing body for many associations in Europe.
England’s international success improved the popularity of the sport in the country. The league (联赛) in Britain was set up in 1992. From the 1990s, it became a truly impressive piece of football organization, becoming the world’s top football league in the process.
Football is obviously the most popular sport in the world. It is impossible for any other sport to take its place, especially with leagues spending billions of pounds every year to stay in the focus.

Eating chips, chocolates and cakes may damage a child’s intelligence, according to researchers at Bristol University. Their study suggests a link between diet high in processed(加工的) food and a slightly lower IQ. Writing in the journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, they suggest poor nutrition may affect brain development.
The eating habits of 3,966 children taking part in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children were recorded at the ages of three, four, seven and eight and a half. The researchers said three types of diet appeared: processed diet which was high in fat and sugar and fast food, traditional diet of meat, potatoes and vegetables, and healthy diet of salads, fruit and fish. The children all took IQ tests when they were eight and a half.
The researchers found a link between IQ and diet, even after taking into consideration other factors such as the mother’s level of education and the social class. Diet high in processed food at the age of three was related to a slightly lower IQ at the age of eight and a half, suggesting early eating habits had a long-term influence. Dr Pauline Emmett, who carried out the study at Bristol University, said, “Brain development is much faster in early life, and it’s when it does most of its growing.”
Although the relationship between diet and IQ was very strong, the influence was quite small. Processed food was linked with IQs only a few points lower. Experts in the field said the results had shown common sense was right. Fiona Ford, spokesperson for the British Dietetic Association, said, “It’s well worth looking at the long-term influence of diet, for everyone’s familiar with the short term. The research agrees with the type of advice we already know, but that’s not always enough. Sometimes a society has to help a person change; we need to educate more young parents about healthy eating.”
32. All the following can lead to a slightly lower IQ except _______.
A. birthday cakes B. fruit salads C. chocolates D. KFC food
33. The longest period of the research on eating habits might reach _______.
A. one year and a half B. two years and a half
C. four years and a half D. five years and a half
34. Which of the following agrees with Fiona Ford’s opinion
A. Diet affects people’s intelligence greatly.
B. The research has shown the short-term influence of diet.
C. The British Dietetic Association has known the results of the research.
D. The British Dietetic Association has a duty to encourage young parents to adopt healthy diet.
35. What does the passage mainly talk about
A. Processed food reduces children’s intelligence.
B. Healthy food makes children grow rapidly.
C. Eating habits change children’s intelligence.
D. Proper diet makes children wise and healthy.

This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this ”
A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered(发皱的)diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
