The clock shows five seconds left in the game. You want to take the ball and score a goal. Your team is losing by just one goal. But you can just stand and watch, because you injured (使受伤) your leg.
Each year, about 20 million kids play sports during and after school in America. Unluckily, about 5 million of those kids get some kind of injury while playing. To help kids play sports safely, the National Youth Sports Safety Foundation (NYSSF) has named April National Youth Sports Safety Month. The foundation teaches kids about sports safety. Here’s some of the advice from NYSSF:
Do warm-up exercises before playing any sport. These exercises help your body relax. Don’t play when you’re injured. If you love sports, you’ll never want to give up a game, even after an injury. But playing through an injury is a bad idea. It may make your injury worse. Use sports safety equipment (器材). Talk with your parents or your P.E. teacher to know what equipment you need. Remember to use it whenever you’re practicing or playing a game.
Playing sports helps kids stay healthy and make friends. But no matter which sport you play, always remember to stay safe and have fun!

I’m Susi. My parents send me to football classes with the help of the Magic Bus. The Magic Bus is a group in India that helps children live better. I know that with hard work I can grow and live better. But most friends at my age in my town stay at home, learning to cook and taking care of the house.
“I should get them out of their houses!” I thought. So I started a plan to help the girls in my town play football, just like me. I tried to ask parents to let their girls out to play. It was a difficult part. No one really listened to me. So I asked my mom for help. My mom shared the story about me and the Magic. “Susi will be part of a football camp in the USA!” This helped because parents listened to other parents.
On Sunday when I had my first lesson, only 10 girls came. But by the next weekend 20 joined us, and then there was no looking back. Girls loved playing football. They told me, “I never knew I had it in me to play like a boy!” Slowly, I see that their thinking changes—now they don’t think that staying at home is the only choice (选择) for a girl. They are not afraid to go out of their houses.

A. She wanted to change the girls.
B. She wanted to play football with the girls.
C. She wanted to share her story with the girls.
D. She wanted the girls to join a football camp in America.
63. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?

Dear Jack,
I’m glad to hear from you. Now I’ll tell you something about sports in my school.
Everyone in our school love sports. In our school, we have a school sports meet in autumn every year. Most students take part in all kinds of sports actively. Every morning we do morning exercises and we do eye exercise in the afternoon. During the break, some of us play basketball, football and ping pong, and some run around the playground. It is well known that doing sports is important because it not only makes us happy, but also makes our body healthier. I plan to run in the morning and play basketball with my friends after school in the afternoon. I hope I can do sports for at least an hour every day.
Best wishes.

The clock shows five seconds left in the game. You want to take the ball and score a goal. Your team is losing by just one goal. But you can just stand and watch, because you injured (使受伤) your leg.
Each year, about 20 million kids play sports during and after school in America. Unluckily, about 5 million of those kids get some kind of injury while playing. To help kids play sports safely, the National Youth Sports Safety Foundation (NYSSF) has named April National Youth Sports Safety Month. The foundation teaches kids about sports safety. Here’s some of the advice from NYSSF:
Do warm-up exercises before playing any sport. These exercises help your body relax. Don’t play when you’re injured. If you love sports, you’ll never want to give up a game, even after an injury. But playing through an injury is a bad idea. It may make your injury worse. Use sports safety equipment (器材). Talk with your parents or your P.E. teacher to know what equipment you need. Remember to use it whenever you’re practicing or playing a game.
Playing sports helps kids stay healthy and make friends. But no matter which sport you play, always remember to stay safe and have fun!

When I was twelve years old, one day I went with my father to his work—a car showroom. I was walking around carelessly and saw a woman and a child outside the showroom. I saw that the woman was crying and went inside to tell my father. He went out and asked the woman to come into the showroom.
The woman told my father her husband (丈夫) died two years ago, so she didn’t have anyone else in her family to help her. She worked in a restaurant to make some money. But her daughter was sick (生病的) for the last few days and she couldn’t go to work. Now they didn’t have anything to eat. My father and I were moved by her story.
We got some bread for her and her daughter and then took them to the nearest hospital. On the way we bought them more food from the market. My father gave her some money before we left. The woman was so thankful.
It is eight years later, but that event is still very fresh in my mind. My father’s kindness to the woman moved me greatly, and I decided to try my best to help others. Also, I’m happy to see so many other people in this world are ready to help others.
56. Why did the woman go to the showroom?
A. She needed help. B. She wanted to find a job.
C. She just walked around. D. She was looking for her daughter.
57. Where did the woman work?
A. In a car showroom. B. In a market. C. In a hospital. D. In a restaurant.

①Give her money. ②Buy her food.
③Look after her daughter. ④Buy her daughter clothes.
A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①③ D. ②④
60. What did the writer learn from his father?

B. Good friends always help each other.
C. We should always be kind and helpful to those in need.
D. Be sure that something is true before telling it to others.

I’m Susi. My parents send me to football classes with the help of the Magic Bus. The Magic Bus is a group in India that helps children live better. I know that with hard work I can grow and live better. But most friends at my age in my town stay at home, learning to cook and taking care of the house.
“I should get them out of their houses!” I thought. So I started a plan to help the girls in my town play football, just like me. I tried to ask parents to let their girls out to play. It was a difficult part. No one really listened to me. So I asked my mom for help. My mom shared the story about me and the Magic. “Susi will be part of a football camp in the USA!” This helped because parents listened to other parents.
On Sunday when I had my first lesson, only 10 girls came. But by the next weekend 20 joined us, and then there was no looking back. Girls loved playing football. They told me, “I never knew I had it in me to play like a boy!” Slowly, I see that their thinking changes—now they don’t think that staying at home is the only choice (选择) for a girl. They are not afraid to go out of their houses.
61. What is the Magie Bus according to the text?
A. It’s the name of a football team. B. It’s a group that helps children.
C. It’s the name of the writer’s plan. D. It’s a story about a girl in India.

A. She wanted to change the girls.
B. She wanted to play football with the girls.
C. She wanted to share her story with the girls.
D. She wanted the girls to join a football camp in America.
63. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Football is a game for boys. B. I am a boy in my heart.
C. I can play football like a boy. D. I can play with a boy.
