When I was a kid, my family farmed 200 acres with mules (骡子), and the most naughty one was Tobe. It’d frequently jump out and run around. But when asked why he liked it, Dad would say, “When it comes to farm work, Tobe comes up to standard.”
Dad died when I was 11, and we had to sell the farm. Those were hard years, but Mom managed to give me my first music lesson. Before long our neighbors liked my songs so much that I decided to make a career in singing.
At 17 I left home for a radio station in Jackson and this job made me discover how inexperienced I was. I made up my mind that I would practice until I came up to standard. I took a job as a driver. With 8 hours spent in the car, I could spend the rest of the time practicing. Finally, when I was good enough, I began playing for audiences nationwide.
By now, I had two kids and I knew what a family was without a dad, so I quit the performances and entered the most depressing (令人消沉的) years of my life with all the clothing, homework, and duties around the house. That was when I thought about Tobe. It was self-willed, but in the field, where it mattered, Tobe came up to standard. So I started listening and made a discovery. My kids’ lifestyle may be different. But where standards are concerned (涉及) — for things like honesty and courage — they often do better than some of us.
Not long ago my son Dick told me he was going to apply for a job at a TV station. “ I know the general manager. I’ll put in a good word for you,” I said. “I’d rather go alone,” he replied. “If I’m not good enough yet to do the job, I shouldn’t get it.” Then I realized he wanted to be up to standard. I felt proud the minute he came home shouting, “ Dad, I got the job!”
4. Why did the author’s father like Tobe?
A. It was full of life. B. It was good at farm work.
C. It enjoyed farm work very much. D. It set the standard for others.
5. What made the author realize his inexperience in music?
A. Performing for audiences. B. Taking the job as a driver.
C. Working in a radio station. D. Having his first music lesson.
6. What did the author discover about his kids?
A. They led a healthy lifestyle. B. They were good at listening.
C They were concerned about standards. D. They had their own shining points.
7. How did Dick react to the author’s offer of help with the job?
A. He thought it useless. B. He was proud of the chance.
C. He turned it down. D. He sought further advice.
C
There are lots of gift-giving cultures going on in different counties during Christmas Day. Different cultures have different taboos (禁忌) about gifts.
Gifts that cannot be given include sharp objects like swords, knives, scissors, or letter openers. These objects send bright energy to the receiver. They are said to cut the friendship. If you receive one, the remedy (补救) for the bad luck from this type of gift is to immediately give the giver a coin. It symbolizes that you “buy” the gift from them. Watches and clocks are popular gifts in America. In Eastern culture, they suggest a limited life. They symbolize time running out.
Never give an empty wallet. It should always include a small amount of money. If you receive one as a gift, you can remedy any bad luck you might experience by immediately adding some money and giving it away to someone else.
Handkerchiefs are for wiping away tears and sweat. They suggest that you expect the receiver to crying in the future or wipe away sweat from frustration (挫折).
Sweets like chocolates, wines and fruits are a good luck gift. They represent that you wish the person to have a sweet life, so they symbolize good fortune. Getting something sweet as a gift is said to bring good fortune. You should never give the gift to others or throw them away. However, it is OK to share some with your family or friends.
Never give the gifts that others send you unless you are doing it to remedy bad luck from a gift you receive. Otherwise, when you recycle a gift, it symbolizes that you are giving away the relationship you have with the person who gives you the gift.
8. Which of the following can be sent as a gift?
A. Swords. B. Knives. C. Scissors. D. Letters.
9. If you have a friend from Eastern culture, you can buy the following as a gift EXCEPT_____________.
A. some chocolates B. a bottle of wine
C. a beautiful clock D. some fruits
10. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Never give the gifts that others send you to others.
B. You can give gifts that others send you to others freely.
C. When you recycle a gift, it always means you dislike the gift-giver.
D. It is OK to give the gifts to others to remedy bad luck.
D
Trainers and parents saw children play sports at a young age and then saw them become professional. Many correlated the training to success. Competitive sports are good for young children because they teach children life skills, provide health benefits, and offer special opportunities.
To begin with, sports teach children life skills. A formal athlete stated, “I played soccer in high school and college and found team sports weren’t just about winning, but also about developing a solid ethic (行为准则), and learning why that’s important.” In short, playing highly competitive sports teaches kids many life skills like teamwork. People will have to use teamwork for the rest of their life, and sports can help them improve that skill. Taking part in sports can help develop a positive attitude towards life, which will help in the long run.
Sports are also good for kids because they provide health benefits. It is healthier for a kid to play a sport competitively than to waste time playing video games all day. Furthermore, a research group of University of California said, “96 percent of the participants (参与者) said they enjoy their sports. They’re all loving life.” That is to say, kids playing highly competitive sports tend to enjoy life instead of doing something else like watching TV.
On the other hand, some people might argue that competitive sports are bad for young children because they are so time-consuming. However, the time spent is not “robbing” kids of their childhood, but offers unique opportunities. Athletes can get success to live their dream life by playing sports. Even though sports are time-consuming, they offer distinctive opportunities.
In conclusion, competitive sports are good for children because they can provide wholesome benefits, create new experiences, and build skills that will last a lifetime.
11. Why is the formal athlete mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To show a reason. B. To give an example.
C. To list a background. D. To draw out a new point.
12. What is the most participants’ attitude to sports?
A. Supportive. B. Uncertain. C. Uncaring. D. Doubtful.
13. What does the underlined word “distinctive” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Common. B. Unreasonable. C. Unique. D. Frequent.
14. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The ways to play sports.
B. The reasons for playing sports.
C. The problems of kids’ playing sports.
D. The benefits of kids’ playing sports.

With 8 hours spent in the car, I could spend the rest of the time practicing. Finally, when I was good enough, I began playing for audiences nationwide.
By now, I had two kids and I knew what a family was without a dad, so I quit the performances and entered the most depressing (令人消沉的) years of my life with all the clothing, homework, and duties around the house.

There are lots of gift-giving cultures going on in different counties during Christmas Day. Different cultures have different taboos (禁忌) about gifts.
Gifts that cannot be given include sharp objects like swords, knives, scissors, or letter openers. These objects send bright energy to the receiver. They are said to cut the friendship. If you receive one, the remedy (补救) for the bad luck from this type of gift is to immediately give the giver a coin. It symbolizes that you “buy” the gift from them. Watches and clocks are popular gifts in America. In Eastern culture, they suggest a limited life. They symbolize time running out.
Never give an empty wallet. It should always include a small amount of money. If you receive one as a gift, you can remedy any bad luck you might experience by immediately adding some money and giving it away to someone else.
Handkerchiefs are for wiping away tears and sweat. They suggest that you expect the receiver to crying in the future or wipe away sweat from frustration (挫折).
Sweets like chocolates, wines and fruits are a good luck gift. They represent that you wish the person to have a sweet life, so they symbolize good fortune. Getting something sweet as a gift is said to bring good fortune. You should never give the gift to others or throw them away. However, it is OK to share some with your family or friends.
Never give the gifts that others send you unless you are doing it to remedy bad luck from a gift you receive. Otherwise, when you recycle a gift, it symbolizes that you are giving away the relationship you have with the person who gives you the gift.
8. Which of the following can be sent as a gift?
A. Swords. B. Knives. C. Scissors. D. Letters.
9. If you have a friend from Eastern culture, you can buy the following as a gift EXCEPT_____________.

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Gifts that cannot be given include sharp objects like swords, knives, scissors, or letter openers.(不能送的礼物包括剑、刀、剪刀或开信刀等尖锐物品)”可知,不能送的礼物包括剑、刀、剪刀或开信刀等尖锐物品。所以D选项“信件”是可以送的。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Watches and clocks are popular gifts in America. In Eastern culture, they suggest a limited life. They symbolize time running out.( 在美国,手表和时钟是很受欢迎的礼物。在东方文化中,它们意味着有限的生命。它们象征着时间所剩无几)”可知,如果你有来自东方文化的朋友,你不能送给朋友漂亮的钟。故选C项。
【10题详解】

Trainers and parents saw children play sports at a young age and then saw them become professional. Many correlated the training to success. Competitive sports are good for young children because they teach children life skills, provide health benefits, and offer special opportunities.
To begin with, sports teach children life skills. A formal athlete stated, “I played soccer in high school and college and found team sports weren’t just about winning, but also about developing a solid ethic (行为准则), and learning why that’s important.” In short, playing highly competitive sports teaches kids many life skills like teamwork. People will have to use teamwork for the rest of their life, and sports can help them improve that skill. Taking part in sports can help develop a positive attitude towards life, which will help in the long run.
Sports are also good for kids because they provide health benefits. It is healthier for a kid to play a sport competitively than to waste time playing video games all day. Furthermore, a research group of University of California said, “96 percent of the participants (参与者) said they enjoy their sports. They’re all loving life.” That is to say, kids playing highly competitive sports tend to enjoy life instead of doing something else like watching TV.
On the other hand, some people might argue that competitive sports are bad for young children because they are so time-consuming. However, the time spent is not “robbing” kids of their childhood, but offers unique opportunities. Athletes can get success to live their dream life by playing sports. Even though sports are time-consuming, they offer distinctive opportunities.
In conclusion, competitive sports are good for children because they can provide wholesome benefits, create new experiences, and build skills that will last a lifetime.
11. Why is the formal athlete mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To show a reason. B. To give an example.
C. To list a background. D. To draw out a new point.
12. What is the most participants’ attitude to sports?
A. Supportive. B. Uncertain. C. Uncaring. D. Doubtful.
13. What does the underlined word “distinctive” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Common. B. Unreasonable. C. Unique. D. Frequent.
14. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The ways to play sports.
B. The reasons for playing sports.
C. The problems of kids’ playing sports.
D. The benefits of kids’ playing sports.
【答案】11. B 12. A 13. C 14. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕“竞技运动对年幼的孩子是否有益” 这一主题展开论述,通过提出论点、论据和论证,最终得出结论,即竞技运动对孩子有好处,因为它们能提供全面的益处,创造新的体验,并建立将受益终身的技能。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段第一句“To begin with, sports teach children life skills.(首先,运动能教会孩子生活技能。)”可知,运动能教会孩子生活技能。紧接着,文中提到“A formal athlete stated, ‘I played soccer in high school and college and found team sports weren’t just about winning, but also about developing a solid ethic, and learning why that’s important.(一位职业运动员表示:‘我在高中和大学时踢过足球,我发现团队运动不仅仅关乎胜利,还关乎培养坚定的道德准则,并理解其重要性’。)”可知,此处引用职业运动员的话,是为了举例说明运动是如何教会孩子生活技能的,所以这是一个具体的例子。故选B。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Furthermore, a research group of University of California said, “96 percent of the participants (参与者) said they enjoy their sports. They’re all loving life.” That is to say, kids playing highly competitive sports tend to enjoy life instead of doing something else like watching TV.(此外,加利福尼亚大学的一个研究小组表示:“96%的参与者表示他们喜欢自己的运动。他们都热爱生活。”也就是说,参与高度竞技性运动的孩子往往享受生活,而不是去做其他事情,比如看电视。)”可推测,大多数参与者对运动是持支持态度的,他们喜欢运动并热爱生活。故选A。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文 “However, the time spent is not ‘robbing’ kids of their childhood, but offers unique opportunities. Athletes can get success to live their dream life by playing sports. Even though sports are time-consuming, (然而,所花费的时间并不是在‘剥夺’孩子的童年,而是提供了独特的机会。运动员可以通过运动取得成功,过上他们梦想的生活。尽管运动很耗时,)”可知,虽然有人认为运动耗时,但文中认为这并没有剥夺孩子的童年,反而提供了机会。再结合“unique opportunities”可知,此处想表达的是运动提供了“独特”的机会。因此,“distinctive”在此处的意思和“独特的”相似。选项A“Common (常见的)”;选项B“Unreasonable (不合理的)”;选项C“Unique (独特的)”;选项D“Frequent (频繁的)”。故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Competitive sports are good for young children because they teach children life skills, provide health benefits, and offer special opportunities.(竞技运动对年幼的孩子大有裨益,因为它们能教会孩子生活技能,带来健康益处,并提供特殊机会。)”、最后一段“In conclusion, competitive sports are good for children because they can provide wholesome benefits, create new experiences, and build skills that will last a lifetime.(总之,竞技运动对孩子有好处,因为它们能提供全面的益处,创造新的体验,并建立将受益终身的技能。)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要讨论的是孩子运动的好处。故选D。
