24、   A team is a group of people with a common goal. A school’s football team has two goals. One goal is to win. That is what the team wants to do. The other goal is to build character. Character is what a person values, how a person gets along with others. That is why schools have football teams. They want to help students build good values.

Each team member builds character. They learn to cooperate(合作). They learn to make good decisions. They work hard. They practice every day. They learn to follow the rules.

Each team member has a position. Each position is part of winning. No one player has the ability to win the game for the team. Only if the team works together does a team win. People often say, "There is no I in TEAM."

Whether the team wins or loses, at the end of the game they congratulate the other team. That is called sportsmanship. While they fight to win during the game, it is just a game. They cannot be angry with the other team. If they are, they'll hear from their coach.

__________ makes sure the team reaches the school's goal. The coach cares about the whole team. The coach gives each player advice. When the team wins, everyone celebrates. And the coach is glad. But after the season is over, the coach is still happy. The coach gets to see the players as they go to school every day. The character they have built is part of their success in school, too.

Some coaches say that if you go into a classroom at their school you'll be able to tell the players. It is not that they are bigger than the other students. It is the ones who are helping other students work. Teamwork is part of their lives.

26、Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.

One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.

Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of nature.

Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional (偶尔的) walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest of the country they are quite prepared to spend with those who are glad to get away from London every night.

【1】Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. People who love nature prefer to live outside the city.

B. People who work in London prefer to live in the city.

C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.

D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city.

【2】One can use the same money for _______ to buy a little house with a garden in the country.

A. getting a small flat with a garden

B. having a small flat with a garden

C. renting a small flat without a garden

D. buying a small flat without a garden

【3】People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.

A. their life was meaningless

B. their life was invaluable

C. they didn't need a happy life

D. they couldn’t sleep late in the morning

【4】What does the writer think of the life in London?

A. He likes living in the city centre.

B. He prefers to live in the countryside.

C. It isn’t mentioned in the passage.

D. He enjoys working in the garden at weekends.

27、

I have a problem. Her name is Luca. We do not see eye to eye.

Like yesterday, we saw the number 9, 999. She said, “All lose nines. They feel so... so purple!”

Purple? I saw it as logical and orderly. Not as colours. I think Luca and I live in different universes.

But we have to do a report on the Statue of liberty. I really doubt if I can work with her.

At our first meeting on Friday, we come up with a plan. She will make a Statue of Liberty, and I’ll write the report. But on Monday, with only one week until our report is due, she tells me she’s leaving to visit her great-grandfather for six days, because he’s ill. It means that I, the one who can’t even draw a stick figure, will have to make the statue. And she the one who doesn’t like to think logically, will have to write the report.

“Please be at my house at 2:00 on Sunday,” I say I cross my fingers.

While she’s gone, I spend lots of hours making the sculpture according to some directions I find online.

Sunday at 2:00 arrives, and Luca is late. Finally, I see her skipping down the sideway, carrying only a small piece of equipment

“What’s that?” I ask. “Where’s the report?”

“It’s a digital recorder,” she says. “A report didn’t feel right, so I did something else.”

I try to keep my voice calm as I say, “But this is not about feelings. It’s about the Statue of Liberty. Statues don’t have feelings.” Our project is due tomorrow. We’re doomed.

“Statues don’t have feelings, but my great-grandfather does.” Luca says.

Now I am quite sure that we’re from two different universes because I have no idea about what she’s talking about.

“I interviewed him about when he came to America and saw the Statue of Liberty,” she continues. “Listen.” She turns on the recording.

A scratchy voice comes on. “In Hungary, I had no food and hoped to go to America, where I could eat, have a better life. Finally I got on the ship. Then the sunshine started. Oh! There she was. Lady Liberty Like hope itself. All of us cried. All my life, I remember that feeling of seeing the lady.”

Looking at Luca. I think a while. “You are right That’s what the Statue of liberty is all about. Who says a report has to be on paper? I say quietly. And a smile spreads over her face.

Can you imagine what happens while we are making the presentation the next day? When Luca’s great-grandfather says “All my life. I remember that feeling, of seeing the Lady.” everyone is staring at our statue, quiet.

【1】The idiom “see eye to eye” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”.

A.like each other B.have good eyesight

C.want to see each other D.share the same viewpoint

【2】What can we know about Luca from the passages?

A.She doesn’t like writing reports.

B.She is not a very friendly person.

C.She has her own ideas about the report.

D.She visits her great-grandfather to interview him.

【3】What does everyone think of their presentation?

A.Boring. B.Relaxing. C.Embarrassing D.Moving.

28、   My mother and I started our morning by rushing into the local grocery store.  Befor long I began to wait in line at the  counter w【1】 she  was shopping  around .

As I was standing  there I noticed an elderly woman, w【2】 layers (层) upon layers of old torn clothES, moving behind me .

At some point I became a【3】 of her moving closer behind me .it was  closer  than I was comfortable with! Instinctively (本能地)  I placed a hand over my purse and drew it closer to me. My f【4】 and imagination raced creating wild  stories  about this homeless woman who might try to steal  from me.

Soon it was my  turn  to o【5】. As the cashier rang up my total, I was surprised to discover I was 37 cents s【6】 . I called to my mother but she was hard of hearing. She asked me to repeat  what I said but she s【7】 couldn’t  make  me out. The cashier waited. I felt so embarrassed.

Suddenly, a long grey arm, with  holes in its sleeves袖子,  reached  over from behind me. She l【8】 37 cents out on the counter, saying, "Here, We all need some  help sometimes."

I was shocked! Here was a woman who clearly had very little to give and was in great n【9】 herself. I had judged her w【10】  and she had reached out, voluntarily, to help me!

What an amazing gift and lesson this woman gave me .
