Riding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference: In London, commuters (乘车上下班的人) do not look at each other.  1. That's not rudeness— people are just too busy to bother looking.

Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection. Nor are they reading a book.   2. Today the only acceptable form of book on the London Underground is an e-book.

  3.  Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000-yes, that's 40,000-"apps" (programs downloaded for the iPhone) have been designed.

Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-filler. One "app",called ishoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination. Isteam clouds the iphone screen when you breathe into the microphone.   4. 

For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction of choice. It's not just teenagers who "plug in" to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.

And if games, e-books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work.

 5. 

A.With this distraction, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train.

B.New technology has replaced quiet habits.

C.You can then write the “steam” on your phone screen.

D.Technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling time.

E.In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times.

F.Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters.

G.Modern Londoner are fancy victims.

When an NBA player is young he thinks he can win the championship by himself. It is only later when he has aged and been through many battles that he learns an important lesson: there is no “I ” in “team”.

There is no better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics. Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were all superstars on three different teams. Yet, none of them had any titles to show for it. Then, last season, they decided to sacrifice money and individual statistics to play together. Garnett and Allen joined Pierce on the Celtics and changed the NBA in the process.

It started in simple ways. Garnett and Allen are two of the most intense athletes in the world. They treat every second of every practice like it is the NBA championship. If you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. So, the young guys on the Celtics started giving their full effort too.  

Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years. He used to shoot the ball many times a game. But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and focused on defense. His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that mattered.  

When the Celtics were winning and the game was almost over, Garnett, Pierce and Allen would come out of the game. But they wouldn’t just sit on the bench. Instead, they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates. They wanted to support their friends and teammates.

Now, the guys who don't play know they can still affect the game by cheering so they scream and cheer when Garnett, Allen and Pierce are playing. The Celtics have developed a strong relationship. They are more than just teammates. They are brothers. 

The result: the Boston Celtics won the championship and are considered the favorites to win the Eastern Conference championship again this year.  

There is a saying that goes, "A successful team beats with one heart." If that is the case, the Celtics may have the biggest heart in the NBA. 

1.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The stories of three famous basketball superstars.

B.A famous basketball team named the Boston Celtics.

C.The importance of teamwork among teammates.

D.Matches between the Boston Celtics and other teams.

2.What does this sentence “there is no ‘I’ in ‘team’.” mean in Paragraph 1?

A."I" will be missing once "I" am on the court.

B.The cooperation of the teammates is more important than the individual.

C."I" work so hard in a team that "I" will forget who "I" am

D.Surrounded by other players, "I" don’t seem to exist.

3.Which of the following is NOT true about Pierce’s recent performance?

A.He became an even better shooter with others’ help.

B.He focused much more attention on defense.

C.He created more chances for teammates.

D.He stood and cheered for his teammates

4.Which of the following didn’t contribute to the success of the Boston Celtics?

A.The whole team has become devoted to each and every stage of the game.
