Book 7 Unit 1第一次作业Reading:AEvery four years, mentally disabled athletes come together to take part in the Special Olympics. Just like the regular Olympic Games, the events are surrounded by grand ceremony and competition is fierce, but there is also a strong sense of unity and friendship. Each athlete had had to train for many years and overcome fear and hardships to reach the games. For many of the Special Olympic athletes, simply taking part in the games is a victory. It is often seems as if the Olympic spirit is stronger at the Special Olympics than at the regular one: winning is not about being the first one across the finish line or scoring the most goals, but it is about being the best you can be.Athletes at the Special Olympics are fighters in more than one way. Living with a mental disability is perhaps the most difficult challenge a human being can face in life. The disability makes everyday life difficult and society often fails to treat the mentally disabled with dignity and respect. For a long time, mental disability was considered shameful and the mentally disabled received little treatment or encouragement. Fortunately, we have now realized that there is much that can be done to help. The Special Olympics is one example of how society can improve the quality of life for all its citizens.By preparing for and participating in the Special Olympics, mentally disabled children and adults can develop their ability to move, improve their health and gain greater self-confidence. The Special Olympics is also a good way to make friends. The first Special Olympics was held in Chicago in 1968. One thousand participants from Canada and the United States completed in three events. Since then, the Special Olympics has grown. At the 2020 Special Olympics in Ireland, more than 6,500 athletes from over 150 countries took part and there were 21 different sports. Interest in the Special Olympics has spread across the world and cities are now competing for the honour to host the event. In 2020, the Special Olympics were successfully held in Shanghai. Chinese athletes, their friends, parents and audience were proud of the great event.1.

Then he took out of an egg from the cupboard. He wanted to boil an egg for three minutes，but he was thinking his work so he put his watch into the hot water. He stood there and waiting and the egg was still in his hand. Just now the servant come into the room. She was very surprising to see the scientist was boiling his egg! 第二次作业ReadingDuring an exhibition showing the skills of disabled people, an armless man used his mouth and feet to repair a watch. He completed the task in just a few minutes at the show, which was held in Beijing last Saturday. Just imagine the tiny parts that make up a watch. You have to wonder how the disabled man developed such a skill.It was reported that 28-year-old Wang Jianghai lost his arms in an accident when he was five and began learning to repair watches at the age of 17. He has repaired 10.000 watches in the past 11 years.What strong self-confidence he must have to overcome the difficulties in getting this skill! What optimism he must have to face the unfairness of his hard life! And what strong determination he must have to go through the hardship in his struggle for a normal life! Such confidence, optimism and determination are exactly the qualities many physically healthy people lack nowadays. Wang has set a good example for young people.But todays youth seem to be more interested in their TV stars and pop singers but less interested in learning from the examples of working and studying hard to achieve higher goals. That is undoubtedly the result of the influence of a changing social atmosphere. One must admit that there is a trend towards hedonism in our society. People are increasingly more concerned about material gains than about spiritual ones. While adults know they must work hard whatever way they choose to materialize the gains, the younger generation are more likely to seek ease and comforts of their sense.This pleasure-seeking trend provides a huge market for the entertainment industry and the mass media. The media devote too much coverage to stories of pop and TV stars, which in turn fans wider and stronger interest for entertainment among the public, especially young people.Ours is a developing country. Global competition in the growth of national strength presents a demand for China to be quicker in its development. We cannot afford to lose time. We need to make our economy more powerful. To meet this need, all of us should value our tradition of working hard and overcoming difficulties.1. A particular mention made of Wang Jianghais story in the first two paragraphs_.A. serve as a description of the trend todayB. serve as an introduction to the discussionC. shows a disagreement of viewsD. shows the popularity of the TV stars and pop singers.2. Which of the following is the reason for young peoples increasing interest in entertainment?A. Young people have given up our traditional value of hard working completely.B. Young people are not interested in learning from the examples of hard working at all.C. Young people are taught by adults to seek pleasure of senses.D. Young people are far too much influenced by too much entertainment news in media.3. The underlined word “hedonism” (paragraph 4) means_.A. material gains B. spiritual gainsC. thinking pleasure is the most important D. amusementII: 完型填空The College BluesThe college campus was covered with beautiful leaves.

The longest paid leave would not exceed 14 days.”China has three “golden weeks” for the Spring Festival, Labour Day and National Day holidays. The “golden weeks” are actually only three days holiday as a weekend on one side of the holiday is designated (指定) as two working days.“The Lunar New Year golden week would be kept”, Zhang added.The week-long holidays were introduced in October 1999 to boost tourism and holiday consumption. But the economic scheme has also created travel peaks and a great threat to many heritage sites and scenic spots.Earlier after this years May Day holiday, the China National Administration said it was considering increasing appeals for canceling the “golden weeks”.The administration, however, pointed out that it would still keep the week-long holidays in place currently, as Chinas social conditions are not mature enough to implement (弥补) paid vacations.1. In the future, how many traditional festivals may be set to be public holidays?A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 62. The most important information we can get from the passage is that_.A. China is likely to cancel “golden week” holidays in 2020.B. the week-long May Day holiday would be shortened to one day.C.
