A
Montgomery County Special Olympics held its eighth yearly show of unified(联合的) basketball at Blessed Sacrament School. The gym was filled with cheerleaders(啦啦队队员), parents and friends. The walls were covered with posters made by third- and fourth-graders at the school. And all the elementary, middle and high school unified teams were playing hard and having fun. Every basket, no matter which team scores, is cheered and celebrated.
Special Olympics support more than 20 unified games. What are unified games They are programmes designed for players with special needs. In the games, they play with kids who are volunteers, called unified partners. The special athletes are unable to play normally like other healthy kids, and some of them are wheelchair(轮椅) users. In basketball, the unified partners rebound(抢得篮板球), pass and sometimes push a special athlete's wheelchair. As Brian Ross, a seventh-grader at St. Albans School in Washington, says, "You just try to help and get everyone to take part."
Some special athletes have come a long way to be where they are. Caleb Head is a 15-year-old special athlete. When he started, Caleb would only stand at the door and watch. Then Caleb began to practise his shooting but still would not play in the games. Now Caleb runs up and down looking for his shot.
The special athletes are not the only ones who benefit from unified sports; the unified partners do, too. Marla Grusin, whose son Tyler is a special athlete, says every kid should come to a Special Olympics game. If they do, they will learn "to share the ball" and that the game "is not all about me".
Not a bad lesson for any athlete.
1.The first paragraph is about _______.
A.the meaning of unified games B.Special Olympics' development
C.the benefits of playing basketball D.an exciting unified basketball game
2.Before becoming a special athlete, Caleb Head ________.
A.had no hope for his life B.never went outdoors
C.ran a thousand miles every day D.had no courage to play basketball
3.According to Grusin, taking part in Special Olympics games can help children ________.
A.learn basic basketball skills B.become more selfless
C.improve their health D.get better grades
B
Little boys don't like reading any more and even little girls don't enjoy it as much as they once did: This is the accepted wisdom inside the book industry—and in many British families, too. Parents and booksellers tend to blame the growing appeal of online entertainment and handheld games, but research from the US is challenging these assumptions.
Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, will release findings in the monthly Book Publishing Report which show that, despite the best intentions, it is well-meaning mothers and fathers who often stop their sons and daughters from picking up the reading habit.
"Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read," said Norris. "It is turning children off."
The results of a number of surveys Norris has carried out with hundreds of American booksellers over the past year have provided the basis for a series of tips for parents designed to help children find enjoyment in books.
One of his tips is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller, while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. "Even if a mother or father is just standing with the child when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the child will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear. It will not be the same answer they would give alone," said Norris.
Norris's another tip for parents is that they do not attempt to limit books to one age range. "What we have found is that parents should not worry whether a title looks too young or too old for a child. If a book has caught their attention, then let them take it. Children, added Norris, often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. "My father made me read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was much too young and I have never read another Clancy since," said Norris.
1.What did Norris think prevents children from enjoying reading
A. Children's interest in handheld games.
B. The declining market of the book industry.
C. Parents' influence on children’s book selection.
D. The growing popularity of online entertainment.
2.What do we learn about the new study
A. It's published to improve book sales.
B. It mainly focuses on British families.
C. It involves many years' efforts.
D. It was conducted by Norris.
3.What should parents do to help kids get their favorite books at bookstores
A. Introduce new books regularly.
B. Let them talk with booksellers alone.
C. Discuss popular books with children.
D. Often seek expert advice from booksellers.
4.What did Norris think of his father's act
A. It was totally wrong.
B. It was quite necessary.
C. It aroused his interest in reading.
D. It showed parents' worries about kids.

By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova — not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.
“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
1.What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner
A. Read music. B. Play the piano.
C. Sing songs. D. Fix the instruments.
2.Which of the following best describes Titterton’s job on stage
A. Boring. B. Well-paid.
C. Demanding. D. Dangerous.
3.What does Titterton need to practise
A. Counting the pages. B. Recognizing the “nodding”.
C. Catching falling objects. D. Performing in his own style.
4.Why is Ms Raspopova’s husband “the worse page turner”
A. He has very poor eyesight. B. He ignores the audience.
C. He has no interest in music. D. He forgets to do his job.
D

"I'm going to miss you so much, Poppy," said the tall, thin teenager. He bent down to hug his old friend goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions(情绪) get the better of him.
His parents were not quite able to keep theirs under control. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.
The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. "I guess this is it," he said. "I'll see you back home in a month, okay " His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy's mother turned around to tell the dog, "Okay, Poppy, time to go back home."
The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn't seem interested in her dinner, her favorite toy, or even her daily walks. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn't.
They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter treats. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn't her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried, "What should we do to cheer Poppy up " asked Dad. "We've tried everything."
"I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy," smiled Mom. "Without anybody left in the house but us, this place could use a bit of fun. Let's get a little dog for Poppy."
It didn't take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual, but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging(摆动) ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell.
Paragraph 1:
Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from the university. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

答案:
Last summer vacation, the weather was very hot, so I decided to learn to swim to make myself cool.
When I was younger, I was afraid of water and never thought I could swim. The first time I went to the swimming pool, the coach told me how to hold my breath. I was frightened, but gradually I could stay in water for a long time. Later, the coach told me how to move my legs and hands. I tried very hard. After two months, I could swim freely in water.
I am keen on it. I will practice harder because my goal is to be a swimming coach, and win first prize in all competitions.
第二节
Paragraph 1:
Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. Poppy jumped with joy at the sight of the little dog. She lowered her head to watch it curiously. Then she became so excited that she accidentally knocked over the box in an attempt to get closer. With the box tipping over, out came the little one, who was not shy and instantly got familiar with Poppy. It didn't take long before the two played around the house, cheerfully running after each other.
Paragraph 2:
A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from the university. He had been missing his parents and the dog since it was the first time that he had been away from home for such a long time. When the boy caught sight of Poppy, he went rushing toward the dog and bent down to give her a big hug. Suddenly, the boy noticed the little dog, "Oh my god, who is this " His parents laughed at the look of surprise on his face. "It's Poppy's new companion," said Mom.
