阅读下列短文,从文中所给的四个选项(A,B,C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Fans burst into cheers as China's 44 - year effort to reach the World Cup finals was finally fulfilled in Shenyang on October 7,2001 with a 1 - 0 win over Oman in the Asian qualifier (合格者).

  Happy fans throughout the world's most populous country rushed into the night to celebrate the historic victory for which they have waited for decades. Expectations of a Chinese victory against the Oman team were so high that celebrations had been prepared beforehand and started at the stadium immediately following the match. “Today is the most important day in my life,” said Zhang Jingquan, a 23 - year - old man who has recently graduated from a university in Beijing.

  The response contrasted to May 19, 1985, when after hearing that China had failed to get into the World Cup finals, fans went on a rampage (到处进行暴力) and started burning cars and causing fires on the streets of Beijing. While in European countries people have always been aware of football's power to make supporters react in such a strong and passionate way, this was the first time for the Chinese public to see such a response. The May 19 incident had the effect of drawing more fans to the games rather than turning them away.

  In recent years more and more people have been drawn to football. Football fan clubs and associations have been set up across the country. In fact, football is becoming such a focus of interest that even football fans are becoming famous. Luo Xi, known as “China's No. 1 football fan,” is one of the more prominent (突出的) examples of this trend. for him, football has filled his mind so continually that he has managed to lose his job and his wife after deciding to give his undivided attention to watching football.

  The reason that football has become so popular is that anyone can he a supporter. You do not have to take exams to be supporter, you even don't have to be able to play football!

  The competitive nature of the game gives fans a sense that they are part of a special social group. With its fierce competition and mass participation, football is unique (独特的). It is the world's number one sport. The huge size of the field also gives a chance for the players to be creative and for the spectators (观众) to look on fearfully. People can experss themselves through football. It's quite easy to learn and play the sport: you need only a ball.

  With the development of society and economy, animals and their habitats are getting pushed aside as households decrease in size and increase in number.

  Small numbers of people per household on average use more energy and goods per person.Greater numbers of households require more natural resources for construction.The possible result of this problem may be insufficient natural resources to meet consumer demand without endangering habitats important to biodiversity.

  Personal freedom and social choice may come at huge environmental cost.Direct costs include visible damage to animal habitats and plant life.Indirect costs include the release of more greenhouse gases.

  The effects of such “personal freedom and social choice” have already surfaced in south-west China’s Wolong Nature Reserve.In Wolong, they found that a reduced average household size was directly tied to an increase in homes, and thus an increase in the amount of firewood consumed for cooking and heating.The rise in wood fuel use has contributed to disappearance of forests and to the loss of habitats for giant pandas.

  Curious about whether other parts of the world were experiencing similar phenomena, they got the support of a team of researchers including Stanford’s Paul Ehrlich, well-known for his population studies, to find out the household dynamics in 141 countries between 1985 and 2000.Their study proved that the difficult choice of Wolong is part of a global trend.

  In the 76 countries considered biodiversity “hotspots”, such as the United States, Brazil, Australia, and Kenya, the number of households grew by 3.1% every year, while the population increased just 1.8%.Meanwhile, the number of people per home dropped from 4.7 to 4.0.The decline in household size has resulted in 155 million additional households in hotspot countries, almost always limiting biodiversity.

  In the 10 non-hotspot countries-those without high-density areas of animal and plant species-similar results were found, though on a lesser scale.Even in countries experiencing population decline, such as New Zealand, the number of households still increased because of a reduction in household size.

In the fall of 1985. I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University,  36 a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am 37 a bright-eyed dreamer and one  38 quite a different tale to tell.

Many of them can't catch up with others on many subjects because of that.We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world.

I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language – the way it can

evoke (唤起) an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth. Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them all – all the Englishes I grew up with.

    Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” English. But I feel embarrassed to say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “broken”, as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “limited English,” for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’s perceptions (认识) of the limited English speaker.

    I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up, my mother’s “limited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is, because she expressed them imperfectly and her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.

    I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today, I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”; and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal (内在的) language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure. I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show: her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.

51. By saying “Language is the tool of my trade”, the author means that ______.

  A. she uses English in foreign trade               B. she is fascinated by languages

  C. she works as a translator                    D. she is a writer by profession

52. The author used to think of her mother’s English as ______.

  A. impolite           B. amusing          C. imperfect        D. practical

53. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?

  A. Americans do not understand broken English.

  B. The author’s mother was not respected sometimes.

  C. The author’s mother had positive influence on her.

  D. Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.

54. The author gradually realizes her mother’s English is ______.

  A. well structured                           B. in the old style     

  C. easy to translate                          D. rich in meaning

55. What is the passage mainly about?

  A. The change of the author’s attitude to her mother’s English.

  B. The limitation of the author’s perception of her mother.

  C. The author’s misunderstanding of “limited” English.

  D. The author’s experiences of using broken English.
