Sports are the base of my life, next to my mother who raised me when my dad left us. I have been into sports since I was six years old. I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips, but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play.

When I was in Senior Two, I met the new school basketball coach, Brian Pawloski. I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before. I showed up to the tryouts (选拔赛) and put out about 90% effort since I thought I’d make it with no problem. That was a big mistake.

Brian Pawloski is the hardest-working coach I have ever met. He didn’t expect 100% effort, he expected 200% effort. One example: he once made us do 40 suicide drills for the 40 lay-ups (投篮) we missed in a game. Some think this is crazy, but it isn’t. After this conditioning practice, as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink, I said, “Coach that was the best practice I ever had.” I was completely sincere. This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school. He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom. If I am not working on basketball, I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life’s challenges, including Wooden, Coach, and The Screwtape Letters.

In the first two years I slacked off, not putting forth my full potential. Now, unlike the coaches of my youth, this man was interested in how he did off the court. He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted. I can honestly say that no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball, but more importantly, in life. My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach, coach and influence their students. I will always remember my high-school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual.

10．In its early history，Chicago had floods frequently，especially in the spring，making the streets so muddy that people，horses，and carts got stuck．An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this：A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street．Asked if he needs help，he replies，"No，thanks．I've got a good horse under me．"
The city planner decided to build an underground drainage （排水） system，but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level．The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city．
An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt．This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12feet．
This of course created a new problem：dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago．Building owners were faced with a choice：either change the first floors of their buildings into basements，and the second stories into main floors，or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level．Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily．But what about large，heavy structures like Tremont Hotel，which was a six-story brick building？
That's where George Pullman came in．He had developed some house-moving skills successfully．To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel，Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews （螺旋千斤顶） beneath the building's foundation．One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10jackscrews．At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time，thereby raising the building slowly and evenly．Astonishingly，the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation，and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening．Some people like to say that every problem has a solution．But in Chicago's early history，every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem．Now that Chicago's waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River，the city's next step was to clean the polluted river．
51．The author mentions the joke to showB．
A．horses were fairly useful in Chicago
B．Chicago's streets were extremely muddy
C．Chicago was very dangerous in the spring
D．the Chicago people were particularly humorous
52．The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough toD．
A．get rid of the street dirt
B．lower the Chicago River
C．fight against heavy floods
D．build the pipes above ground

A．It went on smoothly as intended．
B．It interrupted the business of the hotel．
C．It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews．
D．It separated the building from its foundation．
55．The passage is mainly about the early Chicago'sC．
A．popular life styles and their influences
B．environmental disasters and their causes
C．engineering problems and their solutions
D．successful businessmen and their achievements．
7．As a child，my family moved around a lot．Once，when （61）asked （ask） how she stood moving from one town to another，my mother answered，"As long as there's a library，I'm happy．"I remember after one move，getting my new library card and rediscovering many of the familiar friends（62）who/whom/that I thought I'd left behind．Over the years，wherever I lived，I could always rely on （63）being surrounded （surround） by old friends：Sherlock Holmes，Jay Gatsby，and more．
I've always been a great reader．While in school，the library provided me （64）with required reading，term papers and science projects．And as a young adult，it became a source of free （65）entertainment （entertain），which brought me endless joys．I managed to make（66）it easy to have access to best-selling authors，classic movies and music with very little income．
Recently，matters （67）have changed （change）．When my aging mother moved in with us，one of the first things I did was take her to the public library，followed by many weekly trips until her failing health made it （68）impossible （possible）．I believe her influence led to two of my brothers ending up （69）working（work） at libraries，continuing （70）to
encourage young readers and helping others in their quest for knowledge．
14．This bus doesn't go to the train station．I'm afraid you'll have to ____ at the library and take the A52．（　　）
A．take offB．put offC．get offD．turn off
4．Do the exercise15through 25，Give the different forms of the verbs on page50of your French workbook．Read page12through 20of the Shakespeare play，and when you have finished that，don't forget to fill the missing chemical symbols on the Periodic Table of Elements worksheet．
Homework is a major part of going to class，and it helps students grasp important concepts．Luckily，you can do a few things to make homework less painful．
First，be sure you understand the assignment．Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to，and don't be afraid to ask questions about what is expected．It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later at night!
Second，use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework．Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get homework done．It is attractive to hang out with friends during study periods or unscheduled time，but the more work you can get done in school，the less you will have to do at night．
Third，pace yourself．If you don't finish your homework during school，think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day，and then budget your time．Most high school students have between 1and 3hours of homework a night．If it is a heavy-homework day and it seems like you have got an assignment on every subject but gym and lunch，you will need to devote more time to homework schedule，especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after-school job．
28．The first paragraph is probablyB．

9．Today，widespread social pressure to immediately go to college together with increasingly high expectations in a fast-moving world often causes students to completely overlook the possibility of taking a gap year．And after going to school for 12 years，it doesn't feel natural to spend a year during something that isn't academic．
But despite common misconceptions，a gap year does not impede the success of academics-in fact，it probably promotes it．
Studies show that students who take a gap year are generally better prepared for and perform better in college than those who do not．Gap year experiences can lessen the difficulty when it comes to adjusting to college and being thrown into a brand new environment，making it easier to focus on academics and activities．
Nearly 80 percent of college students end up changing their majors at least once．Many students find themselves listing one major on their college applications，but switching to another after taking college classes．At Boston College，for example，you would have to complete an extra year were you to switch to the nursing school from another department．Taking a gap year to figure things out initially can help prevent stress and save money later on．
Many people，however，argue that the gap year itself can take much money．That's a math．There are formal gap year programs that are rather pricey，but there are also many opportunities to volunteer and receive free housing or even get paid for your gap year．
Perhaps the most convincing reason for taking a gap year is that it offers a unique opportunity that will likely never reappear．After graduating from college，it's possible to take some time off．Students should think about the next step in their future lives：Don't rule out anything，including a gap year．

25．What might be the author's purpose by writing the passage？B
A．To explain what the gap year really is．
B．To prove the necessity of the gap year．
C．To introduce the way to take the gap year．
D．To describe the students taking their gap year．
26．What stops students taking their gap year？D
A．The pricey gap year programs．
B．Bad performance in high school．
C．High expectations for college life．
D．Worrying about falling behind in study．
27．What can we know about students from the passage？B
A．Nearly 80 percent of college students change their majors only once．
B．High school students have little experience to choose college majors．
C．many new comers of college are suffering from acclimation blunders．
D．All colleges allow their students to change their majors free of charge．
28．What is the author's attitude towards the gap year？A
A．Favorable．
B．Critical．
C．Concerned．
D．Indifferent．
