The next day, he got 13 points (得分)in another game.Most people think that Yao Ming is a born basketball player. But Yao said, “When you watch it on TV, it looks very easy. But when you are playing in the NBA, it is really not so easy.” He said that joining the Houston Rockets was a new start and a new challenge. “I hope that through very hard work I can make everyone happy and help the Rockets win more games,” he saidYao Ming speaks some English. Both he and his teammates can understand each other. They dont think there is a language problem. While Yao Ming faces this new challenge, the people of Houston have shown great interest in him and they hope Yao Ming will bring new energy (活力) to the Rockets. The team has started having lessons to learn more about China, and many people who work for the Rockets have learned to speak some Chinese.()21.Yao Ming got 13 poins on October _, 2002.A. 22 B.23C.24D.26()22.Yao Ming said that _.A. playing in the NBA was difficult B. it was hard to watch NBA games on TVC. he was an NBA star D. it was boring to play basketball()23.From the passage we can know that Yao Ming _.A. will work hard for his teamB. made the highest score in his first NBA gameC. cant understand his teammatesD. teaches the Rockets workers Chinese himself()24.The passage is probably _.A. an advertisementB. a notice C. a news reportD. an instructionBFISH FOR FUN!

You have a piece of string(线) 10 centimeters long. The problem is to take out that piece of ice with the help of the string. But you must not touch the ice with your fingers.You may ask your friends to try to do that when you are having dinner together. There is a saltcellar on the table. You must use salt when you carry out this experiment.First you put the string across the piece of ice. Then put some salt on the ice. Salt makes ice melt(融化). The ice round the string will begin to melt. But when it melts, it will lose heat. The cold ice cube will make the salt water freeze again.After a minute or two you may raise the piece of string and with it you will raise your piece of ice!This experiment can be very useful to you. If, for example, there is ice near the door of your house, you must use very much salt to melt all the ice. If you dont put enough salt, the water will freeze again.29. We must use _ when we carry out this experiment. A. fridge B. some foodC. a table D. some salt30. How long will it take to carry out this experiment? A. More than three minutes.B. Five minutes or so.C. Only one minute or two.D. About ten minutes.31. What is the task of this experiment? A. Put the ice cube into the glass of water with the help of the string.B. Take out the ice cube in the glass of water with the help of the string.C. Take out the ice cube in the glass of water with your fingers.D. Put some salt on the ice cube and then put the string across it.32. How many things at least are used in this experiment? A. Three. B. Four. C. Six.D. Seven.DI prefer Lynne Trusss phraseology: I am a grammar “sticker”. And, like Truss author of Eats, shoots & Leaves I have a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid.Now, Truss and I disagree on what it means to have “zero tolerance”. She thinks that people who mix up basic grammar “deserve to be struck by lightning, hacked (砍) up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave”, while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.Everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies, iFixit or Dozuki, takes a compulsory grammar test. If job hopefuls cant distinguish between “to” and “too”, their applications go into the bin.Of course, we write for a living. iF is the worlds largest online repair manual (指南), and Dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation, like paperless work instructions and step-by-step user manuals. So, it makes sense that weve made a strong strike against grammar errors.But grammar is relevant for all companies. Yes, language is constantly changing, but that doesnt make grammar unimportant. Good grammar is credibility, especially on the Internet. And, for better or worse, people judge you if you cant tell the difference between “their” “there” and “theyre”.Good grammar makes good business sense and not just when it comes to hiring writers. Writing isnt in the official job description of most people in our office. Still, we give our grammar test to everybody, including our salespeople, our operations staff, and our programmers.Grammar signifies more than just a persons ability to remember high school English. Ive found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing like stocking shelves or labeling parts. It is the same with programmers. Applicants who dont think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also arent important.33. Whats the authors “zero tolerance” approach to these job seekers who mix up basic grammar? A. They should be left out for a job. B. They have to correct their mistakes. C. They arent qualified for their jobs.D. They must be severely punished.34. Which of the following is TRUE of iFixit and Dozuki? A. Only one of them has a compulsory grammar test. B. They are companies where one learns grammar. C. Grammar is quite important for their existence.D. They depend on grammar correction for a living.35. What can we learn from the text? A. Companies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense.B. Grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing. C. A “zero tolerance” approach to grammar errors might seem a little unfair. D. People who pay attention to writing may pay attention to other things.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Although problems are a part of our lives, it certainly doesnt mean that we let them rule our lives forever. One day or the other, youll have to stand up and say problem, I dont want you in my life. 36 Problems with friends, parents, girlfriends, husbands, and children the list goes on. Apart from these, the inner conflicts within ourselves work, too. These keep adding to our problems. Problems come in different shapes and colors and feelings.But good news is that all problems can be dealt with. Now read on to know how to solve your problems.Talk, it really helps.

No matter what you lose in life, dont lose faith and hope. Even if you lose all your money, family you should still have faith. 39 Your problems arent the worst. No matter what problem you get in life, therere another one million people whose problems are huger than yours. 40 Your problems might just seem big and worse, but in reality they can be removed.Go about and solve your problems because every problem, however big or small, always has a way out.A. But the truth is that when you talk about it, youre setting free the negative energies that have been gathering within you. B.
