I am sitting in an empty football field after my last high school football game that finished a few hours ago. I’m the mid-field player on my team. But in fact that’s not 35 now. I was the mid-field player because, as I said, this was my 36 game. That’s a good way to end a high school football career（生涯）, especially if you win, but even though you don’t, it’s good to leave at a high point.
I was eight when I first started playing football. My dad 37 football, and he used to practice with me at home―passing, catching, running. We used to practice almost every evening 38 it got too dark. He tried to teach me everything he knew about the 39 .
“Just remember: don’t ever 40 .” “Stay in the game. Don’t lose your concentration（专注）.” “Go out there and give 110 percent every time”. Well, that was a
long time ago, but I still hear his words
I had a lot on my mind 42 the game today. I don’t like things to end, I guess, and this was the last game. I was talking to myself and warning myself about what to do and not to do. I didn’t sleep at all last night, and when the sun came up this morning, I reached the point where I just wanted it all to be over, finished, done. But then when the game started, my mind became 43 . I just lived in this game, this moment. I didn’t hear the crowd, I didn’t feel the cold or the pain, I never felt tired. I just kept my eyes on the 44 , and it was just me and the ball and, inside, a soft, white light 45 me the way to the goal. It was a beautiful, empty feeling.
It’s all over now, and it’s really getting cold here. It’s starting to snow. The sun’s almost gone, and I can 46 see the goal. Now it’s dark and I’m sitting here all alone. Well, I guess it’s time to say goodbye and move on.

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible. ”
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was seen clearly. Her window was clean!
Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing （批评） her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge （评判） someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?”
Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.
51．The writer couldn't see everything clearly through the window because .
A. the woman's window was dirty B. the writer's window was dirty
C. the woman lived nearby D. the writer was near-sighted
52．The writer was surprised that .
A. the woman was sitting by her window
B. the woman's window was clean
C. the woman did cleaning in the afternoon
D. the woman's window was still terrible
53．“It dawned on me”probably means .
A. I began to understand it B. it cheered me up
C. I knew it grew light D. it began to get dark
54．From the passage, we can learn .
A. one shouldn't criticize others very often
B. one should often make his windows clean
C. one must judge himself before he judges others
D. one must look at others through his dirty windows
C
It is sometimes said that the English are polite people. This can make life difficult for foreigners. Suppose a foreign boy asks an English girl to go out with him and she says, “ If I finish my work, I’ll meet you in the coffee house at 7 o’clock.” Is she saying “yes” or “no” to his invitation?
In grammatical terms, she is using the conditional structure（条件句）. By using the conditional, speakers of English can avoid giving a “yes” or “no” answer to a question. It makes people be diplomatic（婉转的）. If the girl doesn’t want to go out with the boy, she won’t turn up at the coffee house. She will let him understand she is still working. If she wants to go out with him, but doesn’t want to appear too easy to catch, she has achieved that with her reply. But in this case, as she uses the first conditional which shows probability, she is quite likely to turn up at the coffee house. Being polite can make life very difficult!
The conditional is often used by people in the news―politicians（政客）, for example―who wish to avoid speaking out their ideas. This is very important if they are on their way to discuss an agreement. No one wants to give away his or her points before he or she starts. A government spokesman might say to a group of workers, “If we could pay you more, we would.” The use of the conditional here makes room for argument（争论） although the speaker is using the second conditional form, which shows improbability. So it is unlikely the workers will get their rise.
“If” is a small word, which appears often in the English language. It can show politeness, reported speech and conditionals such as the first―probability―if I can come to your party, I will; the second―improbability―if I saw you tomorrow, I’d give you the book; and the third―impossibility （meaning it is too late to change something that has happened） ?if you had told me, I would have helped you.
55．By saying “If I finish my work, I’ll meet you in the coffee house at 7 o’clock,” the girl in fact．
A. has refused the invitation unwillingly
B. has accepted the invitation diplomatically
C. has avoided saying “yes” or “no”
D. has made a clever reply
56．Which of the following points is NOT TRUE according to the passage? The conditional structure can make ．
A. its users sound more polite
B. listeners get a less clear answer
C. its users are able to act as they like to
D. English difficult to understand
57．In the passage, “If we could pay you more, we would.” probably means .
A. the workers will make more money
B. the spokesman keeps his word
C. the spokesman doesn’t give any promise
D. the workers’ problems aren’t difficult
58．This passage is mainly talking about .
A. the conditional in
communication B. how to
invite a girl in
C. British people and their life D. some language points in daily English

Dear Daming,
I’m writing to you for some advice. I know English is an important subject for us students. And also I liked English very much at the beginning. But now I hate it. I nearly give it up. I tried to listen to the teacher and understand her in class , and I always made up my mind to study harder, but I failed. You know I often got low scores. As a result, I can’t believe in myself. I even think I am a stupid student. I feel learning English is boring and useless. How do you learn English? Can you tell me how to learn English well? Thanks!
Yours,
Wang Hua
Dear Wang Hua，
Nice to hear from you
Yours,
Daming
