9.I came to live here where I am now between Wounded Knee Greek and Grass Greek.Others came too,and we made these little grey houses of logs that you see,and they are square,It is a bad way to live,for there can be no power in a square.
You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle,and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles,and everything tries to be round.In the old days when we were strong and happy people,all our power came to us from the respectful circle of the nation,and so long as the circle was unbroken,the people were getting rich.The flowering tree was the living center of the circle,and the circle of the four quarters nursed it.The east gave peace and light,the south gave warmth,the west gave rain,and the north with its cold and strong wind gave strength and continuous power.
This knowledge came to us from the outer world with our brief.Everything the Power of the World does is done in a circle.The sky is round,and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball,and so are all the stars.Birds make their nests in circle,for theirs are the same as ours.The sun comes forth and goes down again in a circle.The moon does the same,and both are round.Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing,and always come back again to where they were.The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood,and so it is in everything where power moves.
Our places were like the nests of birds,and these were always set in a circle,the nation's circle,a nest of many nests,where the Great Spirit meant for us to nurse our children.
But the"white people"have put us in these square boxes.Our power is gone and we are dying,for the power is not in us any more.You can look at our boys and see how it is with us.Where we were living by the power of the circle in the way we should,boys were men at twelve or thirteen years of age.But now it takes them very much longer to grow up.

18.Last year I bought a gamefor my c hildren and I played it with them together.It troubled me that everyone won the game in the end.This seems like a perfect ending,but where's the incentive (刺激) to keep playing?We played the game twice in all,and it has been covered with dust there ever since.
Without a possible winner,a game or contest loses its excitement.If there's nothing for one to compete for,the drive to do one's best is replaced by a"what's the meaning?"attitude.Competition is closely related to motivation.It's part of human nature to be competitive.A competitive spirit is the key to our success among our adults,so why not teach it in our children?
I'm not suggesting we make our children compete against each other in heated competitions in all aspects of life.What I'm here to say is that we should pay attention to coaches(教练) who lose the spirit of good sportsmanship in the heated moment of the game.But in the right situations,a healthy competition can teach our kids a lot about life.While games and contests show the importance of drive and determination,they also teach our children how to deal with failure.And then come other good lessons-about learning from mistakes,searching for ways to improve and finding the will to try again.
56.The author found that.C
A.the game interested them lot              
B.they had great fun playing the game
C.the game turned out to be less challenging   
D.the game gathered dust very easily
57.What can we know from Paragraph 2?A
A.Humans are competitive by nature.
B.Only adults have a competitive spirit.
C.Only children have a competitive spirit.
D.There is one possible winner in games.
58.What does the underlined word"drive"in Para.2mean?A
A.Power.
B.Ability.
C.Strength.
D.Determination.
59.In a healthy competition,children can learn the lessons except.B
A.learning from mistakes                  
B.giving up games and contests
C.having a try again                      
D.finding ways to get improved
60.What can we infer from the passage?A
A.Children should develop a competitive spirit in a game or contest.
B.We should encourage children to compete in all aspects of life.
C.Children should compete for nothing but prizes.
D.Children must obey their coaches strictly in a game.
2.AVATAR director James Cameron is now taking his camera deep into the ocean.
On March 25,he did alone submarine(潜水艇)dive nearly 11 kilometers down to the deepest place in the ocean,the Mariana Trench(马里亚纳海沟)in the westem Pacific.
Compared with the colorful forest of Avatar,the Mariana Trench is dark and icy cold  Cameron became the first person to explore the deepest valley in the ocean since two men made a 20-minute trip there in 1960.
"I felt like I literally(真正地)had gone to  another planet and come back"Cameron told the Associated Press after returning from his dive."It's really the sense of isolation(与世隔绝),realizing how tiny you are down in this big,black and unexplored place."
The filmmaker has spend the past few years working with his team of engineers to design and build the submarine called  Deepsea  Challenger.Unlike ordinary submarines,it is wrapped(包围)in cameras and lights so that Cameron can film the ocean from the inside.
The minute-long video that Cameron took while under the sea has been released by the National Geographic.There are no words in the video,but there is something fascinating  about this extremely quiet and  distantplace.Cameron said be was thankful that he had had the chance to go there.
"There had be a moment where I just stopped,and took it in,and said,‘This is where I am  at the bottom of the ocean,the deepest place on Earth  What does that mean?'"Cameron told reporters.
    The Mariana Trench was once thought to be of little interest to scientists.It was assumed that nothing could live under so much pressure and with so little light,But in recent years scientists have found creatures there like fish and shrimps (虾)that can resist the heavy pressure.They are also trying to figure out what role deep-sea trenches play in earthquakes.

3.I worked as a manager in a company for a number of years.I liked my job,and was doing well there,but our company was bought by a large company and most of the managers at our place lost their jobs.That was when I decided to do something I'd always wanted to do---become a freelance(自由撰稿的) writer.Changing professions has meant that my lifestyle has changed in a number of ways.
The main difference for me now is that I have a much more flexible( 灵活的) schedule.I work about as much as I did before---between 45and 50hours a week---but my schedule is much less rigid (刻板的) than it used to be.Before,I worked from 8a.m.to 5p.m.every day,with a few extra hours on weekends.Now,however,I work when I feel like it.For instance,sometimes I work until midnight or 2a.m.,then sleep until noon.I really prefer this kind of schedule.It seems more natural to me.
I alse decided that it was about time I began to pay more attention to my health.While I was working as a manager,I never exercised.I already felt tired after work,so I just came home in the evening and watched TV.However,last year I joined a health club and began to do regular exercise.As a result I have lost over 10pounds and I feel much better.I've also started to eat more healthfully.I used to eat a lot of fast food,but now I do my own shopping.I buy lots of fruits and vegetables and cook them at home.
Of course,not all the changes have been that east.For example,I don't feel as safe financially as I used to.When I was working as a manager,I never worried much about money.I could always count on getting my paycheck every two weeks.Working freelance,I don't have a regular paycheck.So now I have to make sure that there's enough money until the next check arrives.
All in all,I really like my current lifestyle.Of course,that doesn't mean I'll never want to have a"regular"job.But for me,at least,it suits me.

C.That he can change his schedule as he likes.
