London—British supermodel Kate Moss quitted modeling for a time last year after becoming disillusioned (be set free from mistaken beliefs) with the industry's hedonistic(享乐主义的) and drug-fuelled lifestyle.

    “I quit because I thought: 'I hate ... it'. I didn't want to have to say I am a model ever again.” Moss said in an interview with Britain's Time Out magazine published Tuesday. The Londoner told the magazine the only way she could deal with life in the fashion industry was to “get out of it” in an apparent (显而易见的) reference to her much-publicized battle with alcohol and drugs.

    “In fashion, excess (无节制的) is not for creative purposes, whatever people may say. It is about escapism. You just have to get out of it to deal with it.” Moss said.

    It was the only way that you could go out night and night and do all these boring dinners. You are never allowed to be tired. It is a sin to be tired.

    But Moss, whose skinny (瘦骨嶙峋的) frame and delicate features have adorned (装饰) countless magazine covers over the last 10 years, was eventually persuaded to return to the job that made her a superstar and one of the wealthiest women with an estimated fortune of 15 million pounds ($ 21. 84 million).

    Moss said that this time round, she was determined to do things differently and have more control over the type of the work she did.

    “I have made my mistakes and I have learned my lesson.”

1Who does “the Londoner” in the second paragraph refer to?

    A. Kate Moss.

    B. The reporter.

    C. The reader.

    D. Kate's boss

2Why did Kate Moss quit her job?

    A. Because she wasn't able to earn her living by doing it.

    B. Because she didn't like this kind of way of life any longer.

    C. Because she wasn't popular any longer.

    D. Because she fell into the habit of taking drugs.

3Which of the following is implied in the passage?

    A. Kate Moss is a popular model and she used to be burdened with too much work.

    B. Kate Moss accepted an interview from a magazine.

    C. Kate Moss is very rich.

    D. Kate Moss isn't a model any longer.

  No woman can be too rich or too thin.This saying often attributed to the late Duchess of Windsor embodies much of the odd spirit of our times.Being thin is deemed as such a virtue.The

  problem with such a view is that some people actually attempt to live by it.I myself have fantasies of slipping into narrow designer clothes.Consequently, I have been on a diet for the better-or worse-part of my life.Being rich wouldn't be bad either, but that won't happen unless an unknown relative dies suddenly in some distant land, leaving me millions of dollars.Where did we go off the track? When did eating butter become a sin, and a little bit of extra flesh unappealing, if not repellent? All religions have certain days when people refrain from eating and excessive eating is one of Christianity's seven deadly sins.However, until quite recently, most people had a problem getting enough to eat.In some religious groups, wealth was a symbol of probable salvation and high morals, and fatness a sign of wealth and well-being.Today the opposite is true.We have shifted to thinness as our new mark of virtue.The result is that being fat –or even only somewhat overweight-is bad because it implies a lack of moral strength.

  Our obsession(迷恋)with thinness is also fueled by health concerns.It is true that in this country we have more overweight people than ever before, and that, in many cases, being overweight correlates with an increased risk of heart and blood vessel disease.These diseases., however, may as much to do with our way of life and our high-fat diets as with excess weight.And the associated risk of cancer in the digestive system may be more of a dietary problem-too much fat and a lack of fiber-than a weight problem.The real concern, then, is not what we weight too much, but that we neither exercise enough nor eat well.Exercise is necessary for strong bones and both heart and lung health.A balanced diet without a lot of fat can also help the body avoid many diseases.We should surely stop paying so much attention to weight.Simply being thin is not enough.It is actually hazardous if those who(or already are)thin think they are automatically healthy and thus free from paying attention to their overall life-style.Thinness can be pure vainglory(虚荣).

  I had three jobs growing up in Salem, Mass., and they all helped shape my life.When I was about 12, I started carrying bags for golfers at a nearby club.All the kids in the neighborhood did it, and I liked it a lot.I got to   1  people who were generally pretty   2   businessmen and doctors-talk about deals, and see how they   3  with each other.It was like being a fly on the wall at a meeting.

  I got another job at Parker Brothers games,   4   small holes in pieces of cork(软木塞)for a game called Dig.I liked Parker, but not the job.It lasted about a month, and I   5   that I never wanted to do anything like that again, ever.

  The third job was at a Thom McAn shoe store.I   6   met people from all   7  of life, and the challenge was exciting.I'd start   8  them different kinds of shoes and get right down there and put them on their feet.  9   they didn't like a certain shoe, I always tried to be thinking ahead to a pair they might like   10  

  This job helped teach me an important   11   lesson:it's all about   12  the sale.I never wanted to let a   13   get out of that store without buying a pair of shoes.It was like stepping up to the plate in a   14  game.  15   someone walked into that store, I was going to bat and taking a   16  .I'd get a seven-cent commission(酬金)for every pair I   17  , 25 cents for the slow   18  , such as those that were out of stock(脱销)or of an odd color.

  Today I believe that the worst sin(罪孽)in running a big company is to manage its size rather than use that size.The   19  of size is the resources it gives you to go to bat often.You have to take risks in business.If you take a risk and fail,   20   to bat and swing again.

The Maum Sin Yong School says that they are the first in Colorado and the one of only two schools in the US to teach martial arts (武术) to students with mental diseases.

    “They do everything that our regular classes do,” says Rob Hansen, Tae Kwon Do instructor. Hansen teaches the kids how to punch (拳打), kick, and block along with the values of the Korean martial arts. He says that they also learn confidence and how to improve their motor skills. “They’ve learned focus, just to be able to pick one item and pay attention to it.”

    “Tae Kwon Do is pretty fun,” says Christina Hinkle. She was born with Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) and says she never wants to miss class. “Well, how come? It’s pretty fun.”

    “Ever since she saw Karate Kid, she’s been running around the house, doing kicks and punches,” says Peggy Hinkle, Christina’s mother. Peggy says that her daughter processes information slowly and taking Tae Kwon Do lessons has helped her in all parts of her life. “It gives her a chance to be a regular kid.”

    Wednesday’s class is not a normal class. Instead, it’s a day that all the students have been waiting for. “Today is actually the first day, and I’m actually going to be able to test these guys,” says Hansen. The students would receive their White Belts. However, in order to receive their belts, the students must show off their skills in front of a group of Black Belts.

    “Nervous? No way. I’m so excited,” says Christina just before she displayed what she has learned over the past few months. She and the other students also answered questions about the history of Tae Kwon Do, as well as its philosophy (哲学).

    “To me, it’s just really important for them to actively see that they are learning something,” says Hansen. “That they actually are able to be rewarded for everything that they’ve done in this class.” All the students passed. They received their White Belts.

    “To see the joy in her face was very rewarding,” says Peggy. She videotaped the whole test and hugged her daughter telling her that she’s proud. “Christina feels like she could do anything,” she says.

Christina says that her next goal is to keep working on her skills so she can move up to a Gold Belt. She says, “Oh, my God, I can’t believe I got the first rank.”

The purpose of teaching the students with mental disease Tae Kwon Do is _______.

A. to help them gain confidence and be skilled at concentration

B. to enable them to punch and kick the other opponents

C. to take part in tournament and win prize.

D. to get rid of their mental diseases and run motorcar

Wednesday is the time ________ according to the text.

A. when the students with mental disease will begin to learn Tae Kwon Do 

B. when Hansen’s students will give a display of what they have learned.

C. when Hansen’s students will replace their black belts with white belts.

D. when the parents can see how Hansen teach their children with mental disease.

The example of Christina in the passage suggests________.

A. children are learning Tae Kwon Do with their parents’ company.

B. Rob Hansen is a strict coach of teaching Tae Kwon Do 

C. children with mental disease are interested in Tae Kwon Do

D. Tae Kwon Do can cure mental disease.

What can we infer from the passage?

A. Learning Tae Kwon Do is beneficial to children with mental disease both in health and mind.

B. Any child with mental disease should come to learn Tae Kwon Do.

C. Parents understand why Rob Hansen teach children with metal disease.

D. More schools like The Maum Sin Yong School are needed in America.
