Abraham Lincoln seemed a simple man, yet in reality his character was most complex（复杂的）. He spoke little, thought much. He read little, yet he knew much. .He once said,“I am slow to learn and slow to forget that which I have learned. My mind is like a piece of steel-very hard to scratch（刮）anything on it, and almost impossible after you get it there, to rub it our.”
When he read something he liked to read it aloud. Asked about that habit he replied: “I catch the idea by two senses for when I read aloud I hear what is read and I see it; and thus two senses get it and I remember it better, if I do not understand it better."
He had faith in the people, faith in the basic goodness of men. He believed that “the people when rightly and fully trusted, will return the trust”. “In leaving the people’s business in their hands,” he said, “we can’t go wrong.”
He tried to get the people to think, to use their reason, not to be led by their emotions（情感）, their fear and ignorance. Once in a speech he was supposed to have said(there is no real proof that he really did say it), “You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time.”

What’s needed to play Korfball
·Teams: Each team consists of four boys and four girls. Two boys and two girls from each team play in each division (a section of the field).
·Ball: A Korfball measures 68 to 71cm in circumference（周长）. In the absence of a Korfball, a number four soccer ball or a netball can be used for children under the age of twelve and a number five size for older players. It is not recommended that basketballs be used.
How to Play Korfball
·Beginning the game: The game begins with the toss（掷）of a coin. Play starts with a throw off.
·Length of game: A game consists of two twentyminute halves with a ten-minute break.
·Division changes: After two goals have been scored, or after about six minutes with young or new players, all players change divisions. Players also change direction at half time.
·Scoring: A goal counts for one point and the winner is the team with the most goals.
·Moving the ball: Players are not permitted to run with the ball. If the ball is caught while running the player should pass it in a continuous movement. Dribbling the ball (moving a ball by a number of short kicks, strokes or bounce with foot, hand or stick) is not allowed and players cannot hand the ball to a team mate.
·Infringements: An infringement is when you break the rules of the game. A free throw is awarded for general infringements or if the ball goes out of play. A penalty（罚球）is awarded for an infringement that deprives a team of a chance to score.

“Depend on yourself” is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhood, and had no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good. They couldn’t depend upon them for an education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their strength to know something. They work their own way till they became well- known.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, “I can not make worthy man of you, but I can help make men of yourselves.”
Some young men don’t try their best to make themselves valuable to the human beings. They
can never gain achievements unless they see their weak points and change their course .They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own efforts.
63. Which of the following fits this article best?

C. Depend on Yourself D. Men must help Each Other
64. Many of the great men succeeded because ________.
A. they were anxious to become rich

C. are sure to be famous in the world
D. can be successful in their lives
66. From this article we can learn that the writer ________.
A. thinks highly of those who are struggling for success
B. sings high praise for parents and teachers
C. is a man of strong character
D. feels it all important to accept the advice of other people
E
Collecting coin (or numismatics（钱币学）to the more seriously minded) is one of the world’s most popular hobbies. Although you can begin collecting coins at any age, most numismatists will recall their hobby being stimulated（激发）in childhood. My interest was kindled as a ten-year-old child when I was presented with a small tin of old coins by the boyfriend of an elder sister. I wasn’t rich all of a sudden but I was certainly impressed by possessing objects that were so many times older than myself. Such is the fascination（魅力）of coins for old and young alike.
Many people are astonished to hear that coins issued before the birth of Christ-representing sixty generations of human life-can be bought for just a few dollars.Owning something which has literally passed through the hands of so many of our ancestors is instantly appealing. When such a coin is not only hard to find but beautiful, it is not surprising that collectors will pay thousands of dollars to own it. Australia’s own coins, although so much more recent than, say, Roman coins, can still be very valuable. For example, in March 1992 an Anustralian1920 sovereign was sold for $287000 at a London auction.
Coins speak to us from the past. If we care to study them we can learn more about how our ancestors used to think. But, perhaps most interestingly, we can discover how people dealt with one another. Basically, coins represent (stand for) the value put upon objects which we own and want to trade, now or at some future date. We call this complex system currency. Australia, like few other countries in the world, can trace its history through its currency（货币）.
67. The word closest in meaning to “was kindled” as it is used in the passages is
A. began B. dived C. filled D. went
68. After receiving the coins as a young child, the author felt
A. suddenly very rich.
B. a desire to spend them all.
C. moved by owning very old objects.
D. an overwhelming（压倒的）sense of discovery.
69. Australia’s coins can be valuable even though
A. they are not very old.
B. they have been passed down through generations.
C. the currency has changed.
D. the currency system is complex.
70. According to the passage which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Coin collecting has always been an expensive hobby.
B. Numismatics appeals（有吸引力）to both children and adults.
C. Coins were not issued（发行）before the birth of Chirst.
D. Australia is unique（ 独一无二的）in that it can trace its history through coins.

What’s needed to play Korfball
·Teams: Each team consists of four boys and four girls. Two boys and two girls from each team play in each division (a section of the field).
·Ball: A Korfball measures 68 to 71cm in circumference（周长）. In the absence of a Korfball, a number four soccer ball or a netball can be used for children under the age of twelve and a number five size for older players. It is not recommended that basketballs be used.
How to Play Korfball
·Beginning the game: The game begins with the toss（掷）of a coin. Play starts with a throw off.
·Length of game: A game consists of two twentyminute halves with a ten-minute break.
·Division changes: After two goals have been scored, or after about six minutes with young or new players, all players change divisions. Players also change direction at half time.
·Scoring: A goal counts for one point and the winner is the team with the most goals.
·Moving the ball: Players are not permitted to run with the ball. If the ball is caught while running the player should pass it in a continuous movement. Dribbling the ball (moving a ball by a number of short kicks, strokes or bounce with foot, hand or stick) is not allowed and players cannot hand the ball to a team mate.

“Depend on yourself” is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhood, and had no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good. They couldn’t depend upon them for an education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their strength to know something. They work their own way till they became well- known.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, “I can not make worthy man of you, but I can help make men of yourselves.”
Some young men don’t try their best to make themselves valuable to the human beings. They
can never gain achievements unless they see their weak points and change their course .They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own efforts.

Collecting coin (or numismatics（钱币学）to the more seriously minded) is one of the world’s most popular hobbies. Although you can begin collecting coins at any age, most numismatists will recall their hobby being stimulated（激发）in childhood. My interest was kindled as a ten-year-old child when I was presented with a small tin of old coins by the boyfriend of an elder sister. I wasn’t rich all of a sudden but I was certainly impressed by possessing objects that were so many times older than myself. Such is the fascination（魅力）of coins for old and young alike.
Many people are astonished to hear that coins issued before the birth of Christ-representing sixty generations of human life-can be bought for just a few dollars.Owning something which has literally passed through the hands of so many of our ancestors is instantly appealing. When such a coin is not only hard to find but beautiful, it is not surprising that collectors will pay thousands of dollars to own it. Australia’s own coins, although so much more recent than, say, Roman coins, can still be very valuable. For example, in March 1992 an Anustralian1920 sovereign was sold for $287000 at a London auction.
Coins speak to us from the past. If we care to study them we can learn more about how our ancestors used to think. But, perhaps most interestingly, we can discover how people dealt with one another. Basically, coins represent (stand for) the value put upon objects which we own and want to trade, now or at some future date. We call this complex system currency. Australia, like few other countries in the world, can trace its history through its currency（货币）.
67. The word closest in meaning to “was kindled” as it is used in the passages is
A. began B. dived C. filled D. went
68. After receiving the coins as a young child, the author felt
A. suddenly very rich.
B. a desire to spend them all.
C. moved by owning very old objects.
D. an overwhelming（压倒的）sense of discovery.
69. Australia’s coins can be valuable even though
A. they are not very old.
B. they have been passed down through generations.
C. the currency has changed.
D. the currency system is complex.
70. According to the passage which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Coin collecting has always been an expensive hobby.
B. Numismatics appeals（有吸引力）to both children and adults.
C. Coins were not issued（发行）before the birth of Chirst.
D. Australia is unique（ 独一无二的）in that it can trace its history through coins.
