As we all know, sports are very common in our daily life.People who usually take part in sports can be found everywhere.Why so many people love sports? 1
Generally speaking, it is good for our health to do sports, such as basketball, football, table tennis, swimming, badminton, and so on. 2 I have taken the swimming course this term, since I didn't know how to swim.I find that swimming is very interesting and has many benefits for our body.On the one hand, it can make our circulatory system run regularly.On the other hand, the muscles of our body can be massaged(按摩) under the pressure of water.All these are advantageous to our health.
3 It is known to us that some sports are team sports that include several players or even more.When playing with others, people must face the situation of getting along with others.Through the sports games, strangers may get along with others and make friends with each other. 4 If you don't know what to do, doing exercise may be a good idea because you can share the time and the fun with your friends.
5 Yes, that's right.But there are more advantages of sports than its disadvantages. We should follow the lead of sports athletes, as sports play an essential role in our life.Plenty of physical exercise will help you keep fit.
A.I think I love the sports deeply.
B.Just take swimming for example.
C.There are many reasons for this.
D.I like the sports, which is interesting.
E.Besides, sports are also a way of communication.
F.Some people may say it is easy to be hurt while doing sports.
G.What's more, they can get satisfaction from the competitive sports.

A
I like watching TV very much for I think it has many advantages.First of all, watching TV is a good rest.After a day of hard work, we need a good rest.Watching TV can make our mind and body not tired any more because of the pleasant music and TV plays.
Besides, watching TV is entertaining.There are many kinds of entertainment, such as sports activities, singing and dancing concerts, plays and films all over the world at every time.It's not possible for us to go to every place to enjoy all the activities within a short time.We need at least over ten hours to fly from New York to Paris, a week by train from Beijing to Moscow and an hour to drive from Queens District to Manhattan District.But within just one second, TV can bring us from an NBA game in New York to a fashion show in Paris by changing the channels.
Most importantly, watching TV is educational.Our children can learn every kind of subjects through the educational programmes and the special reports on TV, and it's easy for them to learn Chinese from a Chinese teacher in Beijing and to learn Russian lessons from a Russian teacher in Moscow.Even we can learn how to behave well from the TV plays.Besides, a teacher can teach millions of students without a huge classroom.

The yearly Academy Awards ceremony was once a private affair.Now,because of television,it is very much a public affair.Hundreds of people gather in Hollywood to see the Oscars presented to outstanding actors,and others involved in the motion picture industry.Millions more watch on television.
It all began on May 16,1929,when 270 men and women sat down to dinner at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.There was no secret about the winners.The names of the winners had been known for months.Janet Gaynor,for example,had won as Best Actress.Douglas Fairbanks presented her with the famous gold statue(塑像).The little statue was not then called Oscar.Like a new actor,Oscar was unknown.About six years later,it somehow got that renowned name.A number of explanations have been offered for its origin,but nobody knows the true story for certain.
Nowadays the results of the Oscar voting are kept secret.Only two people know the winners before the names are announced at the ceremony.The counting of votes is not done by one group of people but by different groups.Nobody except two members of an accounting(计票) company sees the final results.
The information is not kept in open files(卷宗).Winners' names are placed in closed envelopes.The accountants each carry a complete set of envelopes to the ceremony.One set is simply a spare to be used in case something happens to the other one.

Friendship is described in different ways in movies.These movies show different faces of this lovely relationship including the pleasant and interesting faces.Let us discuss how friendship is described in movies.
Friends share common interests:In most of the movies, it is shown that two people become friends easily when they share some common interests.For example, two friends may be in love of the same sports, studying in the same school or living in the same neighborhood.You can see such friendship in movies such as “Harry Potter” and “Lord of Rings”.Harry Potter has two friends.All of them are interested in the use of magic.
Friends make sacrifices (牺牲):In most of the movies, friends make sacrifices for each other.A good example is “Sholay”.In this movie, there are two friends Jay and Veeru who are there for each other till death.Jay sacrifices his life to save his friend.
Friends never run away from difficulties:In movies, it is always shown that true friends always stand up for their friends in times of difficulties.

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful bird, which was very curious about hell.When she was little, her mother always told her that if she didn't master the flying skills, she would go to hell.She was so curious about hell that she always asked others what hell looked like, but no one was sure, because none of them had ever been there.Some said hell was a place full of water, and others told her that hell was full of burning fire.However, the bird knew they were lying.She wanted to find out what hell was.
When other birds were learning flying skills, she always hid herself and watched them.She thought in this way she could go to hell and see what hell looked like.However, she spent so little time learning flying skills that one day she was caught by a little boy.The little boy gave her to his grandpa in the countryside as a gift.The old man liked her very much.He made a delicate cage and put her in it.The bird was very worried because she thought she couldn't find out what hell was like staying in this small cage.However, she couldn't escape.Day after day, she just stayed in the cage, watching other birds flying.She lost her freedom and she became sadder and sadder.At last, she became ill.The old man finally opened the cage, but she was too weak to fly.Lying on the ground, she thought of the question that she ever asked all the time.
“What does hell look like?”
“Hell is a small well?decorated cage.” Before she closed her eyes forever, she finally answered that question herself.

A.she was lazy
B.she didn't like learning flying skills

B.hell was full of burning fire
C.there was no hell
D.hell was a small well?decorated cage

3.in times of 在……的时刻; 在……的时期
She was so curious about hell that she always asked others what hell looked like, but no one was sure, because none of them had ever been there.

[翻译] 她对地狱如此好奇,以至于总是问别人地狱是什么样子的,但是没有人明确告诉她,因为从来没有人去过那里。
