    　　Accepting an award may seem like a simple task, but each year the Academy Awards(奥斯卡奖)proves there may be more to it than you might think．Oscar history has seen its fair share of memorable thank-you moments, good and bad．So the question remains：what makes a great acceptance speech? Here are three tips to keep in mind for your next shining moment：

    　　1．Be thankful and simple．Make sure you thank the important people who helped you reach your goal．Don’t be too arrogant or full of yourself but don’t be so modest(谦逊的)that the audience(观众)thinks you are looking down upon the honor．It’s only natural to be a little excited, so use this to get on well with the audience．At this year’s Oscars, The King’s Speech director Tom Hooper told the story of how he only came to make the movie thanks to the help of his Australian mother, who was in the audience．

    　　He showed grace and humility(谦卑)when he mentioned her：“So, with this tonight, I honor you and the key point of the story is, listen to your mother．”

    　　2．Keep it short．Say as much as you can in as few words as possible．There’s no need to thank every single person you know．As Oscar producer Bruce Cohen warned people at the annual nominees luncheon(年度提名人午宴)before this year’s show, “Nothing is more dangerous than a winner reading a list of names．” Make each sentence meaningful and don’t get too carried away．

    　　3．Finally, make the best use of your moment．Don’t be afraid to have a little fun and say something unforgettable Cleverness and humor will help your speech stand out in a good way and keep everyone entertained．Don’t make rude and unfit jokes, especially about others．Such jokes may get everyone talking, but you may be the only one laughing in the end．

    　　This time, Melissa Leo’s use of the dirty word during her acceptance speech was the first in Oscar history．She said it before covering her mouth：“I really don’t mean to hurt the audience’s feelings．”

    (1)

    The underlined word “arrogant” may mean ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    honest

    B．

    relaxed

    C．

    excited

    D．

    (2)

    be humorous and funny to make the audience laugh

    (3)

    What is true with Tom Hooper?

    [　　]

    任务型阅读。
         Tina, Mike, Jeff, Linda和Vera在生活、学习和运动中遇到一些问题，请阅读下面五个片段（1-5），并从后面的选项（A-E）中帮他们找到解决问题的方法或建议。
    (     )1. Tina has been invited to one of her friends’ birthday party next Sunday. She is worried about this
    now because she has never taken part in any birthday party, and nobody can tell her something about it.
    (     )2. Mike’s favorite is playing sports. He gets up early at 6:00 every morning. Then he goes out to
    exercise by the riverside. He runs along the river for nearly half an hour, and then takes a walk for a few
    minutes. He goes back home for breakfast at 7:30. But he always feels weak after morning exercises.
    (     )3. Jeff is interested in the computer. His parents bought him a Dell computer last month. He wants to
    surf the Internet. But he heard that there are many terrible things for kids on the Internet. His parents don’t have the knowledge about this.
    (     )4. Linda’s parents will be away for China on business for more than half a year very soon. She can’t
    go with them because she has to go to school. She will be at home alone. Nobody will take care of her,
    and she can’t do chores herself.
    (     )5. Vera is a clever girl. She does well in her studies.But Vera doesn’t like playing with her classmates, and she feels bored when her classmates ask her questions about studies. So she can’t get along well with her classmates.
    A   Don’t give your personal information such as your address, telephone number, etc. on the Internet without your parents’ permission. Never agree to get together with someone you “meet” online and never send a person your picture or anything else without first checking with your parents.
    B   On the day of the party, make sure you arrive on time and show that you’re happy to be there. Wear
    something suitable. Greet your friend with a “Happy Birthday” and hand over the gift. Make sure you have put a card with your name on it.
    C   Always smile, so people don’t think you are serious and hard to get along with. Be polite and modest. If you are rude, people will not like you. If people have troubles, you help them. Then, when you have
    troubles, they will help you, too.
    D   Parents should get the kids to do their chores around the house. If their clothes need washing, they wash them themselves. Let the kids prepare their own meals. Let them clean their room, cook for themselves, wash the dishes, etc.
    E   Let’s say that the last time you eat something at night is at 6 or 7 pm (just an example). The following
    day, you don’t eat breakfast but wait until you finish sports - you’ve gone many hours with nothing in your stomach. Your body has to work hard.It’s not good.What’s more, consider reducing the time and strength of your morning exercises.
