My son used to play every team sport he could. Sometime around sixth grade, he noticed he wasn’t so good at playing most team sports as his teammates did, and he went from a boy who loved being with his friends and playing baseball or basketball for the love of it, to a very self-conscious child who felt like he wasn’t as good as he thought. It wasn’t long before he stopped joining any teams.
Of course, I encouraged him to be active, and tried to make him see the importance of still doing things he loved. I had always thought my kid would be involved in organized team sports through high school. And I’m glad I didn’t push him.
It wasn’t long before he started showing an interest in biking, so I helped him sign up for a bike-building course, which was more exciting for him than hitting a home run. He goes to work with his father during school vacations and during the weekends and is learning the plumbing (管道系统)trade. He isn’t winning awards. He doesn’t get credit or recognition and colleges won’t look at biking and plumbing the way they would if he were a talented basketball player, but I don’t care and neither does he. When our kids are in their element, that’s all that matters.
My son is much happier when he bikes with his father than he would be if I forced him to be on the basketball court and that’s what our kids will keep; that’s how they will figure out who they are. It’s okay if what excites them doesn’t match common expectations or can’t be measured by the score. And as parents, it’s okay if our kids aren’t going along with the crowd; we need to give them the time and space to figure out their passion on their own.
4. Why did the author’s son quit team sports
A. Because he found it difficult to join his favorite team.
B. Because he couldn’t live up to the author’s expectation.
C. Because he thought that he was not as skillful as others.

A. By following his heart. B. By doing a part-time job.
C. By escaping from sports. D. By getting some recognition.
7. What does the author suggest to parents
A. Communicating with kids. B. Sparing some time for themselves.
C. Figuring out kids’ real strengths. D. Respecting kids’ individualities.

Doctors say you had better use it before you lose it. The more you sit each day, the more chance you have of getting sick.
Richard Rosenkranz of Kansas State University was among the researchers. He said people who sat for long periods were at great risk of diseases when compared with those who sat less. He said that was especially true for some chronic (慢性的) diseases.
Richard Rosenkranz studied the relationship between sitting and chronic diseases in middle-aged Australian men. He worked with researchers from the University of Western Sydney. They examined the health records of more than 63,000 men from New South Wales. The men were between the ages of 45 and 65. The men reported about what diseases they had, or did not have. And they kept record of the amount of time each day that they sat.
The study also showed that exercising every morning for 30 minutes did not reduce the health risk if you spend the next eight hours sitting at the desk. Mr. Rosenkranz said it was important to make sure you exercise. But he said it was also important to find ways not to sit so much during the day.
Many jobs today require sitting and working at the desk all day. James Levine works at the Mayo Clinic in the United Sates. He suggests working while standing at high table some of the time instead of sitting at a desk. Dr. Levine also suggests standing while using the telephone or eating. Or he advises walking with the people you work with for an on-foot meeting. And he notes that if you spend more time on your feet,you may have muscle activity that helps burn fats and sugars in your body.
8. What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph imply
A. Doctors should treat all the patients well.
B. Doctors should make use of every method.
C. One should value his health before he loses it.
D. One should depend on himself to keep healthy.
9. How did Richard Rosenkranz make the study
A. By examining some records and reports.
B. By making some laboratory experiments.
C. By talking with the doctors and patients.
D. By watching the men’s daily performance.
10. According to Dr. Levine, in order to avoid the harm of long-time sitting,what should people do
A. Exercise more often. B. Change their jobs.
C. Stay away from the desk. D. Stand or walk more.
11. Where does this text probably come from
A. A fashion magazine. B. A health magazine.
C. A biology textbook. D. A life guide.
D
As food waste breaks up in outdoor landfills, it often gives off carbon dioxide (CO ). This powerful gas speeds up the rise of temperature and climate change on the earth. Experts figure that nearly a third of the world’s food, about 1.3 billion tons, is wasted annually. This waste generates a surprising 3.3 billion tons of greenhouse gases each year.
Most countries struggle with food waste management. However, South Korea stands out with its creative composting (堆肥) system called Jongyangje, which requires citizens to separate their food waste. Where available, they can deal with it in specialized electronic bins (垃圾箱) that direct citizens to pay for the waste based on the weight.
Those without electronic waste bins nearby must buy special compost bags. They range in price from 10 cents to $2, depending on their size. These bags can then be thrown into specially marked bins. Citizens who mix food waste with regular rubbish risk fines of up to $800.
The collected food waste is taken to composting facilities. Some of it is changed into biogas, a type of renewable energy used to power homes. The rest is turned into chicken and pig feed.
Despite citizen contributions, Jongyangje is in need of an annual running cost of over $600million. Additionally, not all food waste is recyclable (可回收利用的). Bones from animals like chickens can harm the recycling equipment. Moreover, some farmers are unwilling to use composted waste as fertilizer due to its high sodium content, which limits its usability.
However the 20-year-old system has brought eye-catching results. The country recycles an impressive 98 percent of its 5.5 million tons of annual food waste. This far surpasses the US, which composts only 5 percent of its 60 million tons of annual food waste. This outstanding performance proves the effectiveness of government-citizen cooperation in managing food waste.
12. What can food waste result in when breaking up
A. Rising food prices. B. Energy shortage. C. Worldwide starvation. D. Global warming.
13. What’s the function of the electronic bins
A. To store special compost bags. B. To separate the renewable waste.
C. To transport food waste conveniently. D. To weigh the waste and collect payment.
14. What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about Jongyangje
A. Challenges faced by the system. B. Tricky waste sorting process.
C. Technical problems during the running. D. Resistance from the citizens.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Importance of Composting in Environmental Protection
B. Food Waste Is Increasingly Affecting People’s Daily Life
C. South Korea Is Leading the Way in Food Waste Recycling
D. Government-citizen Efforts to Reduce Greenhouse Gases
