Nowadays, the majority of students prefer to using electronic dictionaries because they considered electronic dictionaries smart and convenient to carry.

However, others hold total different views, saying printed dictionaries are equipped with a large vocabulary.

WHEN people speak about the Chinese women’s volleyball team, most of the time they don’t just refer to a sporting group.____ 1.________.

The team won its fourth World Cup victory by defeating host team Japan 3-1 on Sept 6. This has been its first world title in the 11 years since it won at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004.

What has the team gone through, and what has made it rise again?

Once a world superpower in women’s volleyball, China was almost unbeatable (不可战胜的) between 1981 and 1986. ___2._______.

But the retirement (退役) of the players who won in Athens led to a period of difficulty. The newcomers didn’t perform well enough and coaches changed too often.

______3._____. She had led the Chinese to the 1981 and 1985 World Cup titles as a player. As head coach, she “brought in fresh air, using more young players boldly (大胆地)”, according to Xinhua. As a result, young players got more chances to train and play for the national team.

But things never go exactly (恰好) as planned. 4._______. Lang had to find replacements (替补) quickly from her two years of buildup (积累).

There were more things to do. She had to calm down her girls. “It’s still too far to see who will win,” she told them. Assistant coach Lai Yawen knew all about the effort made by 54-year-old Lang, who spent less than four hours sleeping every day during the World Cup. “Lang has to study the videos showing the other countries’ players’ movements and skills every night,” Lai told paper.cn.

Her players fought just as hard as she did. Zhu Ting, 20, asked to return to a game after South Korea took the lead. She had left because of an injury.

She said the injury was “not a big deal”. Only after she had helped the team win that game did she tell reporters: “My ankles (脚踝) were really in pain, but I hid it.”

_5.___________. “Luck finally gave us a chance to win. I believe chance only favors prepared people,” Lang told Xinhua.

Or, as Xinhua said, it was the girls’ “hard work, unity and perseverance (坚持)” that won them the World Cup.

A.Chinese team was known by many people at that time.

B. The term has come to mean an amazing team spirit.

C. Though the team has met many injuries, they still overcome(克服) them.

D. After the team finished fifth at the 2012 London Games, Lang Ping took over as head coach the next year.

E. Before going to Japan, some key players were injured.

F. During that time, the team won two world championships, two World Cups, and one Olympics.

G. The 2015 World Cup title didn’t come easy but the team made it.

As we grow old, we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that we’ve yet to get around to．Yet re readers are everywhere around us．For certain fans, re reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually．One friend told me that Jane Austen’s Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times．

New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re reading．Journalist Rebacca Mead, a long time Englishwoman in New York, first came across George Eliot’s Middlemarch at 17．Since then, she has read it again every five years．With each re reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated (引起共鸣) differently．Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines．These kinds of books grow with us.

Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re reading．Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading, we are concerned with the “what” and the “why”．Second time round, we’re able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express．As researcher CristelRussell of the American University explained, returning to a book “brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.”

It’s true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if we’re fond of making notes on the pages)．These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then．We’re changed not only by lived experience but also by read experience – by the books that we’ve discovered since last reading the one in our hand.

More so than the movie director or the musician, the writer calls upon our imaginations, using words to lead us to picture this declaration of love or that unfaithfulness in life．A book is a joint project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading that our own life story can become connected with the story in the book.

Perhaps what’s really strange is that we don’t re read more often．After all, we watch our favourite films again and we wouldn’t think of listening to an album only once．We treasure messy old paintings as objects, yet of all art forms, literature alone is a largely one time delight．A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile.
