5．阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英文短文．
Every morning，on his way to work，Mike passed an old man who was always at the same place with a cup in his hand hoping to get a bit of change from those who passed by．For most people，this person was someone to be ignored as if he didn't exist，someone who they didn't want to be bothered with．However，Mike would always say good morning to him and wish him a nice day and sometimes would drop a dollar or two in his cup．This behavior went on for several years until one day before retirement．
He told the man that he would no longer pass by because it was his last day on the job．The man took his hand and shook it warmly saying that he had always looked forward to seeing Mike not because he dropped a few dollars in his cup．He said he would miss him because he was one of the few people who said hello and bid him good day．The man also said that his warm words always brightened his day and helped him to continue．
We all have power of words and we often do not recognize that some can be devastating（毁灭性的） while some can be encouraging．

1．Don't Take the Fun Out of Youth Sports
When I joined a private football league a few years ago，the sport meant everything to me．My coach said that I had lots of potential（潜力），and I became captain of my team．That was before all the fun（25）was taken（take） out of playing．
At first，everyone on the team got equal playing time．Then the team moved up to the top division after winning all its games，and the pressure started．Some parents，who （26）had paid（pay） the coach extra （27）inreturn for their daughters'private one-on-one training，got angry when she didn't give them more playing time in our matches．The coach was replaced．The new coach，however，took all the fun out of the game：All we did during practice was run．We ran so much that，afterwards，we had trouble （28）breathing（breathe）．Younger people shouldn't be doing exercises （29）designed（design） for 18-year-olds．
I was very thin before I started football，but as a member of this team I wouldn't eat much，because I thought to （30）myself that I was afraid of being too full to run．Finally，I ended up leaving the football team．Four other girls did the same，and two of （31）them stopped playing football completely．That's sad because they had so much potential．They were just burned-out with all the pressure they felt from the coach or their parents．
I continued playing football at school and rediscovered my love for it．I joined a private team and the coach told me I needed to relax because I looked nervous．After I calmed down，I played better．When you enjoy something，it's a lot （32）easier（easy） to do it well．

Many of us grow up dreaming of becoming an astronaut．Ever wonder what it takes to be one？
Take NASA for example．
In order to catch NASA's eye，would-be astronauts must not only stand out in required skills and pass physical and psychological exams，but also find unique ways to （41）Dthemselves from the harsh competition．
NASA's requirements for becoming an astronaut have changed over the years．Originally，it （42）Kcandidates with a military flight background，with at least 1，000 hours spent in command of a jet aircraft．In 1978，however，NASA （43）Hits focus to a more varied group of astronauts：scientists and engineers with at least three years of experience in their respective fields．
During the years of shuttle missions，everyone had a （44）J：some would focus on robotics，others on spacewalks or maintenance．To work on the space station，astronauts must be able to perform all tasks，which encourage （45）Bto acquire different experiences．Jeanette Epps，an astronaut，studied aerospace engineering，worked at Ford Motor Company and took a job with the CIA before joining NASA．She says astronauts'varied backgrounds （46）Fto their ability to adapt and learn anything quickly．
After ensuring that candidates are U．S．citizens and that they satisfy （47）Aeducation and experience requirements，the selection committee enters a gray area．"We're not really looking for one thing，just a good mix of things，"said Duane Ross，the manager for astronaut candidate selection and training．
To the committee，candidates who take on （48）Ioutside of the workplace demonstrate curiosity and energy．Many astronauts who don't have a military background do hold a（n）（49）Epiloting license．Some are enthusiastic mountain climbers，scuba divers or skiers．Others are musicians，dancers，or play competitive sports．Choosing to （50）Gthemselves to different，extreme environments counts as another way to stand out from the crowd．

19．"Tear them apart!""Kill the fool!""Murder the referee（裁判）！"
These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events．At the time they are made，they may seem innocent enough．（71）C They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to violence．Volumes have been written about the way words affect us．It has been shown that words having certain connotations（含义）may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior．I see the term"opponent"as one of those words．（72）E
The dictionary meaning of"opponent"is"enemy"or"one who opposes your interests．"Thus，when a player meets an opponent，he or she may tend to treat that opponent as an enemy．At such times，winning may control one's brains．（73）G I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player's request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet enough．The player started to rub his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then shouted．"Are they wet enough now？"
In the heat of battle，players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way．I have also witnessed a player hitting his opponent with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play．Off the court，they are good friends．（74）B It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which differs from normal behavior．
Therefore，I believe it is time we elevated （提升） the game to a higher level．Replacing the term"opponent"with"associate"could be an ideal way to start．
The dictionary meaning of the term"associate"is"colleague"；"friend"；"companion．"
（75）A You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term"associate"rather than"opponent．"

A．Reflect a moment!
B．Does that make any sense？
C．But let's not kid ourselves．
D．Such rude comments express one's strong desire to win．
E．Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms．
F．Players sometimes turn to violence hoping to injured opponents．
G．And every action，no matter how rude，may be considered acceptable．

18．One afternoon I was sitting at my favorite table in a restaurant，waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive．Suddenly I （41）C that a man sitting at a table near the window kept glancing in my direction，（42）D he knew me．The man had a newspaper （43）B  in front of him，which he was （44）Cto read，but I could （45）Athat he was keeping an eye on me．When the waiter brought my （46）D，the man was clearly puzzled by the （47）B way in which the waiter and I （48）A each other．He seemed even more puzzled as （49）B  went on and it became （50）C that all the waiters in the restaurant knew me．Finally he got up and went into the （51）D．When he came out，he paid his bill and （52）A  without another glance in my direction．
I called the owner of the restaurant and asked what the man had （53）A．"Well，"he said，"that man was a detective．He （54）Cyou here because he thought you were the man he （55）D．"What？"I said，showing my （56）B．The owner continued，"He came into the kitchen and showed me a photo of the wanted man．I （57）Asay he looked very much like you!Of course，since we know you，we told him that he had made a  （58）B．""Well，it's really （59）D I came to a restaurant where I'm known，"I said．"（60）C，I might have been in trouble．"

17．Several years ago，a public school teacher was hired and sent to visit children who were （41）A in a city hospital．Her job was to help them with their （42）C so they would not be too far behind when （43）B enough to return to schoo1．

16．请你从如图两幅漫画中任选一幅，通过电子邮件推荐给学校英文校刊，说明漫画主题，根据个人经历，论述推荐理由．

Dear Editor，
I'd like to recommend an interesting cartoon．A boy running to his parents after the summer camp ending，says he learend washing，dressing and sleeping alone．This cartoon shows the importance of children's independent and propaganda agood way to educate children．
Nowadays many parents have a common sense that their children are so precious to them so they always try their best to give their children a happy and meaningful life．On one hand，these parents care and protect their children，however，on the other hand they may do harm to their children．
As far as I am concerned，it is necessary that parents should give their children more space and freedom so that their children may become more independent．What's more，it is a good way to let their children join a summer camp for children must face something by their own，such as，their relationship with friends，theircost and saving and so on．A good case in point，parents may encourage their children to take part-time jobs during summer or winter holiday．By doing this，I believe，these children may become more independent，brave and responsible．
In summary，parents should know better that an independent，responsible and brave person is able to adapt society better．．
