I used to look through the phone book for hours trying to find Michael Jordans phone number. When I couldnt find it, I just dialed seven numbers. When someone answered, Id ask, Is that Michael Jordan? Obviously, I always had the wrong number.A year later I started playing basketball at my local recreation center. It was very big. I never thought in my wildest dreams that a basketball court could be inside a building. The recreation center had a special smell in it, sort of like hot rubber. I guessed it was from the shoes hitting the floor so fast and hard. The atmosphere on the court was carefree. Our biggest excitement of the day was when we actually made a shot. We celebrated wins over ice cream at a fast food restaurant.I got good at it, and my confidence grew. I played it all the time until the sixth grade. As soon as junior high school came, I stopped playing basketball and focused on school. When senior high school started, I tried out for the school team and made it. We worked hard. Every week we did 300 push-ups and 300 sit-ups on our own. Our coach encouraged the sit-ups to keep stomach power, because it gave us so much control when we were playing basketball. If we didnt want to do the sit-ups and push-ups, we could practice dribbling (运球) and shooting more. Its just us, the ball, the court and the net. But dont take my word for it. See for yourself.

Research revealed one in five parents has ditched old classics such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and Rapunzel in favour of more modern books. One third of parents said their children have been left in tears after hearing the horrible details of Little Red Riding Hood. And nearly half of mothers and fathers refuse to read Rumplestiltskin to their kids as the themes of the story are kidnapping and execution. Similarly, Goldilocks and the Three Bears was also a tale likely to be left on the book shelf as parents felt it forgives stealing. The survey of 2,000 adults was conducted to mark the launch of the hit US drama GRIMM, which starts tonight at 9pm on Watch, and sees six episodes based on traditional fairytales. The poll found a quarter of parents polled wouldnt consider reading a fairytale to their child until they had reached the age of five, as they prompt too many awkward questions from their offspring. Steve Hornsey, General Manager ofWatch, said: “Bedtime stories are supposed to soothe children and send them off to sleep soundly.But as we see in GRIMM, fairytales can be dark and dramatic tales so its understandable that parents worry about reading them to young children.” “As adults we can see the innocence in fairytales, but a five year old with an over active imagination could take things too seriously.Despite the dark nature of classic fairytales, as we see in GRIMM, good will triumph over evil and there is always a moral to the story.” The study also found two thirds of mums and dads try to avoid stories which might give their children nightmares. However,half of parents said traditional tales are more likely to have a strong moral message than a lot of modern kids books, such as The Gruffalo, The Hungary Caterpillar and the Mr. Men books.36.Why some parents dont want to read Rumplestiltskin to their kids? A. Rumplestiltskin is too long B. Rumplestiltskin is too difficult C. Rumplestiltskin forgives stealing D. Rumplestiltskin may have bad influence on Children37.We can learn from paragraph 3 that Grimm is _ A. a fairytales book B. a movie for children C. a play loved by children D. a drama based on traditional fairytales38. The underlined word “soothe “in paragraph4 can be replaced by_ A. put down B. calm down C. take down D. come down39. Which of the following may Steve Hornsey agree to? A. There is a moral to a classic fairytale B. Fairytales are dark C. Adults take fairytales too seriously D. Fairytales are not good for childrens sleep40.Whats the authors attitude towards traditional fairytales? A. Optimistic B. Not mentioned C. Casual D. DisapprovingDThe most widespread fallacy（谬论）of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported people are free from colds until they come into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mails dropped from airplanes. During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches（战壕）, cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds. In the Second World War prisoners at the Auschwitz concentration camp, naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds. At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in a drafty（通风良好的）room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter？Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on. 41. The writer offered _ examples to support his argument. A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 742. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The Eskimos suffer from colds from time to time. B. Colds are not always caused by cold. C. People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.D. A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.43. Arctic explorers may catch colds when they are _.A. working in the isolated arctic regionsB. writing reports in terribly cold weatherC. free from work in the isolated arctic regionsD. coming into touch again with the outside world44. Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit _.A. suffered a lot B. never caught coldsC. often caught colds D. became very strong45. The passage mainly discusses _.A. the experiments on the common cold B. the fallacy about the common coldC. the reason and the way people catch colds D. the continued spread of common colds第二节 信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。请阅读以下酒店信息，然后按要求匹配信息。A.
