How did these players get that way was it through training and practice, or are great players “born not made”？ First, these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past players that a young boy can look up to (敬仰) and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup three from South America and three from Europe. There has never been a national team or a really great player from North America or from Asia. Secondly, these players all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players began playing the game at the age of three or four.Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighbourhood a poor, crowded area where a boys 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, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practised in the street with a “ball” made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums (贫民区) of Belfast.All great players have a lot in common, but that doesnt 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.语篇解读：英式足球很流行，但是著名的球员却不多，文章从几个方面分析了造成这种现象的原因。1According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?ASoccer is popular all over the world, but truly great players are rare.BMillions of people all over the world are playing soccer, but only six countries have ever had famous stars in the past.CSoccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but only six countries from South America and West Europe have ever had great national teams.DSoccer is one of the most popular games all over the world, but it seems least popular in North America or Asia.解析：选A细节理解题。从第一段第一句可得出答案。2The word “tricks” at the end of Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”AexperienceBcheatingCskills Dtraining解析：选C词义猜测题。根据本句意思：“技巧使他出名”，故选C。3Liverpool and Brazilian streets are two geographic terms used to illustrate (说明) _.Awhere soccer players get their wayBhow neighbourhood affects a soccer players successCwhy they can produce the best soccer teamsDwhat a poor, crowded area will provide a future soccer player with解析：选D细节理解题。从第二段最后和最后一段可得出答案。4In the last paragraph, the statement “. but only one became Pele” indicates that _.APele is the greatest soccer playerBthe great players are born with some unique qualityCPeles birthplace sets him apart from all the othersDthe success of a soccer player has everything to do with the family background解析：选B推理判断题。从最后一段最后一句可得出答案。BAnger is not wrong.I know this statement seems shocking and challenges the wildly popular “Positive Thinking” movement, which encourages us to “be full of positive energy” and “let go of our anger”However, the truth is that anger is just an emotion, and emotions are neither right nor wrong.We do not consciously choose them.We do, on the other hand, choose how we express our emotions and there are definitely right and wrong means of expression.The reason were often urged to “keep_a_lid_on” our anger is that few people ever learn proper and positive ways to express anger.Instead, we are taught that “anger is wrong”and “you should keep your anger inside”But these messages dont change the fact that, for most of us, anger exists.Many popular “Positive Thinking” programmes assume that success comes from “controlling our emotions”and that this can be done by simply repeating positive statements.Interestingly, these positive slogans often include a lot of negativity. “Only losers complain！I am a winner！” is one popular saying.The belief that those who disagree with us are losers is actually quite negative and is often used as an excuse for rude language and personal attacks.When it comes to dealing with negative situations in our daily lives, the ability to reasonably express anger or disagreement is an important skill.But we must use balanced and nonviolent methods to express our dissatisfaction.Frustration at unfair policies or treatment can certainly cause anger, but our anger can never be an excuse for abusing family members, damaging schools, attacking doctors or most seriously, engaging in terrorism.Instead of pretending that anger doesnt exist, we should start teaching appropriate means of dealing with anger.When we experience angry feelings in ourselves or others, what we should “let go of ” is the silly idea that we can remove anger with just a few sweet words.Instead, we should find reasonable solutions to the causes of those angry feelings.We need to accept anger as a natural emotion but stop using it as an excuse for violent and destructive behaviour.Anger isnt wrong, but failure to deal with it appropriately is.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。作者向读者论述了只要能够正确处理愤怒，愤怒是没有错的这一观点。5. What is the writers opinion about the “Positive Thinking” movement?AIt can help people control their negative feelings.BIt does not offer useful solutions for dealing with anger.CFollowing such advice can improve peoples chances for success.DMost of the people who participate in such programmes are dishonest.解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容可知，作者认为“Positive Thinking”只不过是让人重复积极的话，有时还会有消极作用，对解决愤怒问题没有帮助。故选B项。6. The underlined expression “keep a lid on” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”Afreely expressBalways forgiveChold inside Dcompletely forget解析：选C短语猜测题。根据画线短语后“few people ever learn proper and positive ways to express anger.Instead, we are taught thatanger is wrongandyou should keep your anger inside”可知，此处是让人们隐藏愤怒的意思。故选C项。7. What information would have been useful to add to the final paragraph?AThe names of some good books that talk about anger issues.BThe viewpoints of people who hold the opposite opinion to the writer.CDifferent studies that provide some evidence supporting the writers beliefs.DSome examples of how to deal with anger in a positive and beneficial way.解析：选D推理判断题。最后一段主要论述了我们应该妥善地处理愤怒，所以接下来应该会介绍一些具体的处理愤怒的方法、例子等。故选D项。8The content of this passage is mostly based on_.Afact BopinionCtheory Dstory解析：选B写作手法题。分析文章内容可知，本文是基于作者的个人见解。对“Positive Thinking”和正确处理愤怒的方法展开论述的，故选B项。.语法填空 Lionel Messi, _1_ player from the South American country Argentina, is one of the greatest soccer players alive today.
