A week ago “Sports for Life” program was sent to the parents, requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play. Since then our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it. Here is a memo (備忘錄) for your reference when you answer the phones.
Sports 1: Basketball
We expect that this will be the most popular of the three sports. Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park. Each student will have to pay for the cost of hiring a bus. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.
Sports 2: Gym
We will be using St Peters Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6:00 pm. Second, there are lots of trees with plenty of shade there. Three activities—skipping, jogging, outdoor aerobics (有氧運(yùn)動(dòng)), all of which are free of charge, will be arranged. And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.
Sports 3: Hiking
Hiking will take place at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2:30 pm and finish 90 minutes later. Three teachers will accompany the students, and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers. Each instructor will cost $75/hr.
21. What is the main purpose of the memo?
A. To collect ideas about the program. B. To explain “Sports for Life” to the staff.
C. To attract students to join in. D. To inform people of the program.
22. Why should students register early to join in Sports 1?
A. There will probably be too many students. B. There are just a few basketball courts.
C. There are not enough basketball teachers. D. A bus will take them to the Park.
23. When will Sports 3 end?
A. At 6:00 pm. B. At 4:00 pm. C. At 3:30 pm. D. At 2:30 pm.
B
I grew up with a birth weakness known as spina bifida, a disability that affects my sense of balance, causing me to walk with a limp (跛行).
As a young child, I could remember the way other children would look at me and stare because of the way that I walked. There were many times that my schoolmates would laugh at me and call me names simply because of their lack of understanding of why I was a little different.
Now that I am an adult, I have noticed that the stares and names have begun to disappear gradually, and judgments that once were negative have begun to turn toward acceptance. Now I look beyond what I cant do and focus on what I can. I have learned that limitations open doors that have been closed, showing other ways to meet our needs. I have always looked at life as a challenge, grasping each obstacle (障礙) with open arms. There is nothing in this world that comes easy. I must stand tall and look forward, to be ever so ready for what still lies ahead.
People often feel sorry for those who were born with some type of disability. But their compassion is misplaced. Yes, I may not be able to run as fast or perform certain tasks, but my disability gives me a better look at life and all thats around me. I want to be seen not as a person with a disability but as a person who has and will continue to become confident.
So I decide to become an advocate (提倡者) as a representative of disabled Americans, to fight for our rights which have been ignored for so long. I feel that it only takes one powerful voice to change the minds of many nations, and as long as I have a mouth to use and a mind to think, I will continue to work to bring peace upon the disabled community.
24. Spina bifida made the author ___ .
A. walk in an unsteady way B. grow up to be short
C. lose the sense of balance D. lose the access to education
25. Because of the authors disability, his classmates ___ .
A. worried about him very much B. made fun of him sometimes
C. tried to treat him in a different way D. gave him as much help as they could
26. What does the author think the disabled should do?
A. Learn to protect themselves. B. Know their weakness first.
C. Find out what they can do. D. Set a high goal.
27. What can we infer about the author from the text?
A. He hasnt achieved much in his life. B. He still hates the way he used to be treated.
C. He is regarded as a very useful person now. D. He is now fighting for the rights of the disabled.
C
Students decide to take a job while being in university for two reasons. On the one hand, they need money; on the other hand, they want to experience something new and they want to see what working means.
But is it good to take a job while you are a university student? There are both advantages and disadvantages if we were to answer this question. If we were to think about the advantages, we could mention the ones I have just discussed. Having a job at an early age helps us gain experience, which will be very useful to our later life. We may become financially independent and dont need to ask our parents for money each time we want to go downtown with our friends, or spend the holiday at the seaside or in the mountains.
However, students who take a job might have problems in spending enough time on their study. If they work during the day, they may have to be absent from their classes, and if they work at night they will feel tired the next day. They may choose to stay at home, resting. Whats worse, some students may even get bored with study.
Well, this fact happens every now and then, but there are cases where well-prepared students take a part-time job but at the same time they make time for study, too. And they have good results. Their case is a good example to follow among the students who decide to work while being in university. Anyway, we need to keep in mind that study is the most important job for a student.
28. What is one of the advantages for college students to take a job?
A. Getting pleasure. B. Receiving further education.
C. Making money for the family. D. Learning something practical.
29. What are the benefits for college students who take a job?
A. Wining free journeys. B. Making more friends.
C. Getting prepared for future careers. D. Being independent of their family.
30. According to the author, taking a job may cause students to ___ .
A. be absent from exams B. lose interest in studies
C. have a fight with roommates D. receive punishment from teachers
31. The author thinks that college students should ___ .
A. take a part-time job B. learn by doing
C. balance work with study D. work during vacation
D
Parents and kids today dress alike, listen to the same music, and are friends. Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.
“I would never have said to my mom, ‘Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”
Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate ways.
Today, the generation gap (代溝) has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects like sex would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parent-child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.
But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “Theres still a lot of strictness and authority (權(quán)威) on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.”
Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these different roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication that encourages everyone to have a say.
“My parents were on the ‘before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40-year-old, were on the ‘a(chǎn)fter side,” explains Mr Ballmer. “Its not something easily gotten by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”
32. What does the underlined word “gulf” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Understanding. B. Similarity. C. Distance. D. Interest.
33. What is the change in todays parent-child relationship?
A. They are more equal. B. Children respect parents more.
C. Parents have more power than before. D. They have little difficulty in communicating.
34. From the last paragraph we can learn Mr Ballmer thinks todays parents ___ .
A. can set a limit to the change B. follow the need of the change
C. fail to take the change seriously D. have some difficulty getting used to the change
35. What does the text mainly tell us about parent-child relationship?
A. Its past and present. B. The reasons for improving it.
C. Its development. D. The ways to deal with it.
