    It seems that the Englishman just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humourist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it? Taking all amateur(业余)and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.

    The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rather than eleven. The rugby, in which an oval-shaped ball is used can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring,butit enjoys great popularity among the British.

    Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world. Table-tennis or “ping-pong” surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or in Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.

    1.The main purpose of paragraph one is to tell us that the English_______.

    A. are all sports lovers

    B. behave like children

    C. like to kick a ball around

    D. can remain young all their lives

    2.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?

    A. They differ in the shape of the ball.

    B. They are played by different numbers of players.

    C. They both can be handled.

    D. They both can be kicked.

    3.From the second and the third paragraph, we know that_____.

    A. Americans love football most of all

    B. British people love rugby most of all

    C. Americans and British people may call the same thing differently

    D. football originated in Britain in the 18th century

    Good afternoon, everyone, I feel honor to stand here to share my ideas about the topic of communicate with our parents.

    Parents are the people which love us most, so it is necessary to keep a good relationship with them. Here are my suggestions with how to make it easier to communicate with parents.

    First, we should respect and trust our parents. Don’t be rude to them even if they had done something wrong. They have been experienced more and always try their best to protect us from dangers. Second, whether we often talk with them about our life and experience, we will know each other better. Third, if sometimes we don’t agree with our parents decisions, we should try to put themselves in their shoes and we will soon understand them. Remember they really want is only the best for us.

    Thank you for listening.

    Since the nineteen nineties, education has been required for all South Africans from age seven to fifteen. Last December, the government announced that seventy percent of students passed their final examination to finish high school. In 2008 the passage rate was about sixty-three percent. There have been increases each year since then.

    Professor Shireen Motala at the University of Johannesburg says access to basic education is no longer the problem in South Africa. She says most children stay in school until they are about sixteen. The problem now, she says, is that large numbers of them leave without completing high school. Students take an examination known as the matric in grade twelve, their final or "matriculation" year. Professor Motala notes that less than half the children who started school in 2000 sat for the matric last year.

    Educational researchers also point to another problem. They say South African schools do not produce enough students with the skills for higher education in math and science. Many schools are not well - equipped. They do not have libraries at school. Ninety - two percent of the schools do not have libraries.

    Also, education specialists say in many cases, teachers and school principals do not have the skills or training to do their jobs. In other cases, they are simply not doing their duty to provide an education. Professor Motala says a number of teachers were poorly trained during the system of apartheid(种族隔离), or racial separation in South Africa. Apartheid ended in 1994.

    Secondly, she says, teachers have been confused by the many educational reform efforts in the last fifteen years. And, finally, she thinks language differences in the classroom have not gotten as much attention as they should.

    South Africa's minister of basic education promises a number of improvements.

    1.How was thepassage rate in 2008?

    A. uncertain B. just so-so

    C. high D. low

    2.What's the Motala's attitude towards the basic education for students in South Africa?

    A. Confident. B. Hopeless.

    C. Negative. D. Worried.

    3.From the passage we know the matric is ________.

    A. an examination difficult for students to pass

    B. an examination for students in grade twelve

    C. the number of students leaving school

    D. the number of students taking exams

    4.Students in South Africa find it hard to get improved in math and science because ________.

    A. they drop out of school without finishing high school

    B. teachers don't have the abilities to teach them

    C. most schools can not provide enough equipment

    D. there aren't such subjects in most schools
