Passage 2 Let's celebrate Olympic spirit, not gold medals After being obsessed with winning gold medals for decades, Chinese sports fans have begun to appreciate healthy competition among athletes, celebrate their speed, stamina and endurance, and marvel at their skills, acknowledge their hard work, and admire their desire to succeed. This change, especially evident at the ongoing Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, signifies a step toward separating sports from utilitarianism and accord priority to sportsmanship. This is a welcome development, for it indicates an attempt to restore the respect and glory of sports and athletes, which they so rightly deserve. Instead of nasty criticism of athletes who do not win gold medals, netizens are now more likely to pass sympathetic comments on, and encourage, athletes or teams who fail to win a medal. Nowadays, seldom does one come across netizens lashing out at athletes for not meeting the fans' expectations. Those who engage in fair competition at the Olympics deserve people's respect irrespective of whether they win or lose. A country that does not consider the number of gold medals won at the Olympics or world championships the only way to raise its global status is a confident country. As China marches toward realizing socialist modernization, it is focusing more on improving people's livelihoods and promoting the physical fitness campaign to make people healthier. ( )1.

They lash out at them for failing to meet expectations. B. They ignore their performances altogether. C. They offer sympathetic comments and encouragement. D. They compare them negatively to winning athletes. ( )4. What is the sign of a confident country, according to the passage, when it comes to sports competitions? A. Winning a large number of gold medals at international events. B. Measuring its global status solely by the number of gold medals won. C. Recognizing the value of fair competition and respecting athletes regardless of results. D. Focusing solely on improving physical fitness campaigns. Passage 3 Break it down There’s a new sport at this year’s Paris Olympics: breaking, sometimes called breakdancing. The sport combines dancing and acrobatics. To win the gold, athletes called breakers will spin, flip, and shuffle to hip-hop music. Here’s what you need to know about the sport. Why is it called breaking? Breaking started in the 1970s, in New York City. At parties, dancers got up to perform during musical “breaks,” which gave breaking its name. Breaking is now an important part of hip-hop culture around the world. Who can be a breaker? Anyone can be a B-girl or a B-boy, which is what breakers call themselves. Victor Montalvo is an American B-boy. “Breaking is awesome because it’s part of hip-hop culture, and in hip-hop culture, it doesn't matter what color you are, who you are, where you’re from: It’s inclusive,” he says. “It’s all about peace, love, unity, and having fun.” How do breakers talk? Breakers have their own insider language to describe their dance style. A “top rock” is when a breaker dances while standing up. A “down rock” is when a breaker dances on the floor, moving their arms and kicking their legs. A “freeze” is when a dancer stops in the middle of their routine in a tough position, like standing on their head. Do the breakers pick their own music? No! In breaking competitions, a DJ picks the music for each round. The breakers never know what songs the DJ will pick, so they have to choose their moves on the spot. When will breakers compete at the Olympics? The B-girls battle on Friday, August 9. The B-boys go on August 10. ( )1. What is the name of the new sport at the Paris Olympics this year? A. Acrobatics B. Hip-hop dancing C. Breaking D. B-boy/B-girl competition ( )2. When and where did breaking originate? A. In the 1980s, in Los Angeles B. In the 1970s, in London C. In the 1990s, in Tokyo D. In the 1970s, in New York City ( )3. What is the main message Victor Montalvo conveys about breaking? A. It's a highly competitive sport that requires a lot of physical strength. B. Breaking is exclusive to only a select few dancers. C. It's an inclusive part of hip-hop culture that emphasizes peace, love, unity, and fun. D. Breaking is only suitable for dancers who are already skilled in acrobatics. ( )4. How do breakers prepare for a competition when they don't know what music will be played? A. They memorize a set routine for every possible song. B.
