【题目】

Rugby players have a reputation of being big, strong and rude on the field. But Takamasa Hoshiyama, 17, says the reality of rugby is very different from what it looks like.

“Whatever your size or speed, anyone can play rugby,” says the Island School student, who also plays on the U19 Hong Kong rugby team.

Taka has been playing rugby since he was just four years old, following in the footsteps of his father. “My dad played rugby and he was keen (渴望的) for me to play,” says Taka. A lot has happened to Taka since his first game with his father. In the 2014 New Year's Day game against the Overseas Barbarians, he was named Man of the Match, and has taken the role of captain in his club team.

And of course, he's grown throughout his years of playing rugby — in more ways than one. “When I started playing, I was scrum-half (争球前卫), usually the smallest guy on the field,” says Taka. “But as I grew, I changed position. Now I am a front row prop — one of the big guys that holds the scrum together.”

“Rugby has done a lot for me,” he says. “It has really made me focused, and that is thanks to my coaches as well as my teammates who brought me to where I am now.”

Taka says that being part of a team and experiencing that growth together is one of the best parts of the sport. “Rugby creates a unity within the team and helps develop a mutual (相互的) respect between other teams and players,” he explains. “Training is hard and matches are physically demanding, but it is a team sport and you have to do your job for the team.”

Now Taka wants to help others experience the same growth he has. In his free time, he coaches younger rugby teams. He says it is especially rewarding to find “unusual strengths and capabilities within players and encourage them to work on those.”

1What does Taka think of rugby?

A. It requires fast speed.

B. It has a role for everyone.

C. It's a game full of violence.

D. It's too competitive for kids.

2What has happened to Taka since he started playing rugby?

A. He has realized what his father never could.

B. He has built up both his physical and mental strength.

C. He has played for the Overseas Barbarians for three years.

D. He has taken the role of captain in the Hong Kong rugby team.

3According to Taka, what serves the most important role in playing rugby?

A. Having a high level of physical fitness.

B. Owning some unusual strengths.

C. Building a strong team spirit.

D. Having a fun-loving attitude.

4What's Taka hoping to do now?

A. To coach national rugby teams.

B. To become a professional rugby player.

C. To get the leading role in his club team.

D. To encourage more people to enjoy rugby.

【题目】Do you love Beats headphones, True Religion jeans, and UGG shoes? These are some of the most popular brands (牌子) around. They are also expensive. But some experts say they are not much better than cheaper brands.

For example, Jim Wilcox works for Consumer Reports. He tested all kinds of headphones. He says that $80 Koss Pro headphones provide basically the same quality (质量) and comfort as Beats. So why do people pay twice or even 10 times as much for the hottest brands?

Experts say it’s because fashionable, expensive brands send a message. Brands say “I belong” or “I can afford it.”

Some people think that expensive brand names are worth the price. They say that some designer clothes really are top quality and that they last longer than cheaper brands. Some teenagers choose to wear popular brands because these brands make them feel good about themselves.

Alexandra Allam, 17, likes to buy brand-name products. “I’d rather spend the extra money to get something I know I’ll be satisfied with,” she says. Her friend Emmy Swan agrees, saying “As long as you can afford it, it seems reasonable to buy what you want.” But not all teenagers agree. “Spending hundreds of dollars for designer sunglasses is stupid and unreasonable,” says Daniel Steinbrecher, 16. “It’s fake (假的) happiness.”

People who are against wearing expensive brand names say that many designer brands aren’t any better. “It’s wasteful to buy things just because they are popular,” says Edmund Williams, 15. “You’ll feel better if you buy things because you like them. If you have extra money to spend, it would be better to give it to people in need.”

1Who have the same opinion on expensive brands?

A. Alexandra & Daniel. B. Emmy & Edmund.

C. Daniel & Emmy. D. Emmy & Alexandra.

2What does Edmund think of expensive brands?

A. They make him feel confident.

B. They are not worth the price.

C. They need to improve their quality.

D. They pay too much attention to personal likes.

3The text is mainly about _____.

A. how to buy things reasonably

B. the competition between brands

C. whether expensive brands are worth high prices

D. the different values of teenagers

【题目】

Recent studies have shown that challenging your brain, by spurring (刺激) the brain to create new patterns, is very important to keep your brain active and healthy as you age. Lifelong learning is a health club for our minds, bodies and spirits. This is why we parents should also teach our children to be lifelong learners. Dr. Marilyn Price-Mitchell, an American psychologist, and youth development expert,shares some ways for us to do this.

1. Ask questions.

When your child asks you a question, don't answer it straight away. Instead, help him or her bring up “questions that pique their curiosity.” This way, we help children make connections between what they're learning at school and the world beyond their classroom. We also show them that learning does not, and should not, end when one is “done with school” — it's actually a lifelong process!

2. Let them fail.

Our kids love learning about different scientific concepts (概念) viaThe Magic School Busvideos on YouTube. And one of the characters, Miss Frizzle (the science teacher) always says this phrase: “Take chances, make mistakes, and get messy.” I always quote (引述) her when the kids say they're afraid to do or learn something because they might do it wrong or make a mistake. If we don't allow our kids to fail, they won't be able to learn to “use mistakes and failures to make lifelong learning easier,” as Dr. Price-Mitchell says.

3. Learn through experience.

This is very true for all of us, especially children. In the words of Dr. Price-Mitchell, “Learning through experience, not just from books, is one of the best ways to give the youth the skills they need for lifelong learning, living, and working in the 21st century.”

Of course, we should also set an example for our children — by learning continuously, and expanding our knowledge and experiences.

1What does the underlined word “pique” in the text probably mean?

A. Change.

B. Awaken.

C. Balance.

D. Prevent.

2What's the author's attitude to what Miss Frizzle always says?

A. Worried.

B. Doubtful.

C. Uncaring.

D. Supportive.

3Which of the following shows the importance of learning through experience?

A. Learning is not child's play; we cannot learn without pain.

B. It is not that I'm so smart. But I stay with the questions much longer.

C. If you don't learn to think when you are young, you may never learn.

D. Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.

4In which part of a newspaper will the text most probably appear?

A. Health.

B. Culture.

C. Education.

D. Popular science.
