What Makes a Soccer Player Great?

Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way—was it through training and practice, or are great players’ born, not made”? First, these players ca me from places that have had famous stars in the past---players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate（效仿）.In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup—three from South America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team—or a really great player—from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at game at the age of three or four.

Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood(聚居区)—a poor, crowded area where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool which produced the Beatles(甲壳虫乐队)，had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball”made of rags(破布). And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums(贫民窟)of Belfast.

All g reat players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.

B people in poor areas are born with some unique quality

C children in poor areas start playing football at the age of 3 or 4

D many great soccer players come from poor areas

4 In the last paragraph the statement “only one became Pele” indicates that

A Pele is the greatest soccer player

B the greatest players are born with some unique quality

C Pele’s birthplace sets him apart from all the other players

D the greatest players practice with “balls” made of rags

We were late as usual. My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden by himself, and when he discovered that he couldn't manage he had asked me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time. We checked in and went straight to a big hall to wait for our flight to be called. We waited and waited but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In the end there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ108 could get a free meal voucher (凭单) and that the plane hadn't left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant that it wasn't safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given free vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.

The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing, we reported back to the airport. Guess what had happened while we were asleep! Our plane had arrived and taken off again. All the other passengers had been woken up in the night to catch the plane, but for some reason or other we had been forgotten. You can imagine how we felt!

New Foods and the New World

In the last 500 years, nothing about people---not their clothes, ideas, or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree（可可树）by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.

The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine(饥荒)”of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to leave their homeland and move to America.

There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.

According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with. 11．According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years?

A Food

B Clothing

C Ideology

D Language

12．“some” in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to

B they were forced to leave their homeland and move to America

C the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing potatoes

D the potato harvest was bad

14. Which country is the largest coffee producer?

A Brazil

B Colombia

C Ethiopia

E Egypt

15.Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage?

Cars are important in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor when he has a car.

Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn't know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the United States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.

There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. First of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.

The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.

The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular. Americans don't like to wait for a bus or a train or even a plane. They don't like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.

The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas.

16. When do most Americans feel they are poor?

A. When they don't have a car.

B. When they live in a huge country.

C. When they don't use planes.

D. When they have a car.

17. What is the most important reason that cars become popular in the United States?

A. Because the United States is huge.

B. Because public transportation is not so good.

C. Because Americans like to be independent.

D. Because Americans like to move around.

18. What public transportation is good in the United States?

A. Buses.

B. Trains.

C. Taxis.

D. Planes.

19. What has caused a big problem for Americans?

A. A new kind of car.

B. Public transportation.

C. The gas shortage.

D. Poor people.

20. Which of the following is not mentioned according to this passage?

A. Cars have made the nation on wheels.

B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage.

C. Nearly 80% of the American people have cars.

D. Cars have made American independent.

I don't often lose things and I'm especially careful with money, so I was quite surprised when I reached for my wallet and it wasn't there. At first, I thought it was possible that I could have left it at home. Then I remembered taking it out to pay for the taxi, so I knew I had it with me just before I walked into the restaurant. I wondered if it was possible that it could have slipped out of my pocket while I was eating dinner. Thinking about that possibility, I turned and walked back to the table where I had been sitting. Unfortunately, there were several people sitting at the table at the

time, so I called a waiter and explained to him that my wallet had fallen out of my pocket while I was sitting at the table a few minutes earlier. I had the waiter go over to the table to see if my wallet was on the floor. While the waiter was looking for it, the manager of the restaurant came up to me and asked me if anything was wrong. I didn't want to get a lot of people involved in the problem, but I knew I had to get the wallet back. I told the manager what had happened. He had me describe the wallet to him, and then he insisted that I report the missing wallet to the police. I told him that I didn't particularly want to get the police involved in it; besides, I was in a hurry because I had an appointment with my doctor in just a few minutes. I explained to him that my biggest worry at the moment was how I was going to pay the check. He told me not to worry about that. He had me write down my name and address, and he said he would send me a bill.

21. Why was the writer so sure he had brought his wallet with him?

A. He remembered that he didn't leave it at home.

B. He always felt his pocket for the wallet before he left home.

C. He believed his own memory.

D. He had taken it out to pay the taxi-driver.

A. He was sure his wallet was still there.

B. It was possible that he could find his wallet there.

C. He could ask someone there about his wallet.

D. He saw the wallet lying on the floor near the table.

24. As the writer didn't want to get a lot of people involved in the problem, _____.

A. he only told the manager what had happened

Cathy and Wayne are in their late 20's, have been married five years, and are childless. The last time a member of Cathy's family asked, "When are you going to start a family?" her answer was, "We're a family!"

Cathy and Wayne belong to a growing number of young married couples who are deciding not to have children. A recent survey showed that in the last five years the percentage of wives aged 25 to 29 who did not want children had almost doubled. What lies behind this decision which seems to fly in the face of biology and society?

Perhaps the most publicly outspoken childless couple are Ellen Peck and her husband William. They are not against parenthood but against the social pressures that push people into parenthood whether it is what they really want or not.

"It's a life-style choice," Ellen says. "We chose freedom and spontaneity (自发性), privacy (清

静) and leisure. It's also a question of where you want to give your efforts within your own family or in the larger community. This generation faces serious questions about the continuity of life on earth as well as its quality. Our grandchildren may have to buy tickets to see the last redwoods (红杉) or line up to get their oxygen ration (氧气量). There are men who complain about being caught in a traffic jam for hours on their way home to their five kids but can't make the association between the children and the traffic jam. In a world seriously threatened by the consequences of overpopulation we're concerned with making life without children acceptable and respectable. Too many children are born as a result of cultural pressure. And the results show up in the statistics on divorce and child-abuse."

26. What does the member of Cathy's family mean by saying "When are you going to start a family?"

A. When are you going to have children?

B. When are you going to get married?

C. When are you going to buy a house?

D. When are you going to move to a new house?

27. The number of childless young couples _____.

A. is decreasing

B. to come across

C. to follow

D. to go against

29. Which of the following statements is true of the Pecks?

A. They propose that young couples have no children.

B. They urge that family planning be made obligatory.

C. They think that no pressure should be put on young couples who do not want children.

D. They think that there would be no divorce or child-abuse if young couples are not pressured into parenthood.

30. Which of the following is NOT a consequence of overpopulation mentioned in this passage?

A. Traffic jam.

B. The using up of precious natural resources.

C. The lowering of the quality of life.

people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the 3 that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child 4 an animal, such as a pigeon can learn to recognize faces. We all 5 this ability for granted.

We also tell people apart 6 how they behave. When we talk about someone's personality, we mean 7 in which he or she acts. Speaks, thinks, and feels 8 that individual different from others.

Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone's personality 69 words is somewhat easier than 10 his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face" looked like, you 11 have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a "nice person," you 12 begin to think about someone who was kind, 13 , friendly, warm, and so forth.

There are many words to describe 14 a person thinks, feels, and acts. Gordon Allport,

15 U.S. psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words 16 differences in people's behavior. And many of us use this information as a 17 for describing a 18 . Hippies, bookworms, 19 , military types people are described with such 20 .

Part IV Translation (30%)

1)Directions: In this part, you should translate the sentences into English

1. 也许你羡慕我，因为我可以借助计算机在家里工作。我也这么想，互联网使我的工作方便多了。我可以通过电子邮件撰写、编辑并交出我的文章，在网上与我的同事聊天，与老伴讨论工作。用鼠标一击，马上就能拿到我要的一切资料，获得最新的消息。可是，另一方面，用网络通信有时也令人沮丧。系统有可能瘫痪，更糟的是，因为没有面对面交谈的情感提示，键出的词有时候似乎很难理解。

2. 金钱是有趣的，而且几乎完全是不讲自明的。我教孩子懂得如何对待金钱的方法就是给孩子开一个账户。银行提供的利率以及以复利计算吸引了孩子的注意并让他很快成了热心的储蓄者。另一个诱人之处是存入的钱是属于孩子自己的。他可以想存就存，想取就取。

交给孩子们更多的，而不是更少的自主权是在帮助他们成为理性的消费者。

3.自从他加盟以来，乔治从早忙到晚。他总是乐呵呵的，一直全身心地扑在工作上。由于表现出色，他被提升为执行总裁（CEO= chief executive officer）。从那以后，他尽力和工人打成一片，从不盛气凌人。另外，他制定了一些奖励制度，鼓励工人们努力工作。他相信忠诚和勤劳会大大促使公司获得成功。人们都说它是位出色的执行总裁。

4.相对而言, 要求没有受过教育的人节约资源比较困难.他们往往认为资源只是唾手可得的原料罢了, 用得再多也不会过分.他们很少注意到大自然的毁灭所造成的致命后果.跟没有受过教育的人相对照的是, 大多数受过教育的人把他们的幸福跟大自然联系在一起,并且为了保护自我而努力保护大自然.尽管在当前环境问题的讨论中,人们可能很难区分各种建议孰优孰劣,但是一位当代评论家主张以人的名义保护大自然应该成为我们的指导原则.

2) Directions: In this part, you should translate the following sentences into Chinese

1. It is relatively more difficult to call for poorly educated people to conserve resources because they tend to view resources as nothing more than handy materials, which they can never overuse to the point of excess. They are seldom aware of the fatal consequences of the ruin of nature. In contrast, most educated people bind their own well-being to that of nature and try to preserve nature for the sake of self-preservation. Though it may be difficult to distinguish a good proposal from a bad one in our current debate on environmental issue, one contemporary commentator has argued that protecting the environment in the name of man should be our guiding principle.

2. Psychologists have used numerous facts to bear out the claim that in order to recover speedily from negative emotion, you should allow yourself to cry. You needn’t/ don’t have to be ashamed of crying. Anxiety and sorrow can flow out of the body along with tears.

3. Consider the case of Donna. Her son unfortunately died in a car accident. The intensity of the blow made her unable to cry. She said, “ It was not until two weeks later that I began to cry. And then I felt as if a big stone had been lifted from my shoulders. It was the tears that brought me back to earth.”

4. Perhaps you envy me for being able to work at home by means of computer. I agree that the internet has made my job a lot easier. I can write, edit and submit articles via/by E-mail, chat with my colleagues on line and discuss with my boss. With a click of the mouse, I can get all the data I need, and keep up with the latest news. But then, communicating through the net can be frustrating sometimes. The system may be paralyzed, even much worse still, without the emotional cues of face to face communication, the typed words sometimes seen difficult to interpret.

5. Money is fun and almost entirely self-explanatory. My way of teaching the child about money is setting up an account for him. Interest rate offered by the bank and compounded holds his attention and he has soon turned into a keen saver. Another attractive feature is that his account belongs to him. He can make other deposits, or withdrawals, whenever he likes.

Giving children more control, not less is helping him become a rational consumer.

6. George was on the run since he came aboard. He was always cheerful and devoted himself heart and soul to his work. Because of his excellent performance he was promoted to CEO. From then on he tried hard to blend in with the workers and never threw his weight around. He also laid down/ introduced a reward system to encourage the workers to work hard. He believed that loyalty and hard work would greatly contribute to the success of the company. By all accounts he was an outstanding chief executive officer

Or, they’ll live healthier and more productive lives than the “cool” kids will. The study looked at 13-year-olds who acted old for their age by having “cool”behavior, such as early romantic relationships. They were seen as “cool” and popular kids. But as they grew up, things changed. The study found that these kids tended to have problems with drugs and relationships by their 20s. Their behavior was no longer linked with popularity. Instead, they were thought to be less socially skilled by their peers. Besides, the average “cool”kids, by age 22, did more poorly than the average kids in the study. They had a 45 percent greater rate of problems due to drugs and alcohol. They also had a 22 percent greater rate of criminal behavior. The study also found that these kids failed to develop important life skills. They spent so much time trying to seem cool. They didn’t
