7、Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children’s careers．Should they allow their children to train to become top sportsmen and sportswomen? For many children it means starting schoolwork very young．And going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place．It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing．

       Another problem is of course money, In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and sportswomen．If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc．All can be expensive．

       Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age．Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed．Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training when young that you can reach the top as successful sports person．It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training．

1．Where can we most probably find this passage?

       A．An advertisement．                             B．A diary．

       C．A newspaper．                                    D．A notice board．

2．What does the underlined phrase “to take a second place ”in the first paragraph mean?

       A．to become less important

       B．To put it at another place

       C．To happen again

       D．They are the most important of all the things

3．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

       A．It’s easy to make a decision when your children want to take up sports．

       B．Most of the students may become top sports men after a long period of training．

       C．Early training may damage young muscles．

       D．It’s not very expensive for parents to support their children’s development in sports．

6、Packaging is an important form of advertising．A package can sometimes motivate someone to buy a product．For example, a small child might ask for a breakfast food that comes in a box with a picture of a TV character．The child is more interested in the picture than in breakfast food．Pictures for children to color or cut out, games printed on a package, or a small gift inside a box also motivate many children to buy products or to ask their parents to buy for them．

       Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing．Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this．Although a similar product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free．However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product．The size of a package also motivates a buyer．Maybe the package had “Economy Size” or “Family Size” printed on it．This suggests that the larger size has the most product for the least money．But that is not always true．To find it out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit．

       The information on the package should provide some answers．But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement．The words and pictures do not tell the whole story．Only the product inside can do that．

1．From the passage we know the buyer pays more attention to __________．

       A．the size of a container

       B．a container with attractive picture

       C．a well-designed container

       D．a plain container with low cost

2．What suggestion does the author give in the passage?

       A．It’s not good to buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish．

       B．The quality of a container has nothing to do with the quality of the product．

       C．The best choice for a buyer is to buy a product in a plain package．

       D．A buyer should buy what he needs most rather than a well-designed package．

3．What is the best title for the passage?

       A．How to Package a Product．

       B．How to Make an Advertisement．

       C．How to Sell Product．

       D．How to Treat the Package Wisely．

5、Why is setting goals important? Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life．Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow yourself to make your life happen．

       Successful and happy people have a vision of how their life should be and they set lots of goals（both short-term and long-range）to help them reach their vision．By setting goals you are taking control of your life．It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go．Think of it in this way．There are two drivers．One has a destination in mind（her goal） which is laid out for her on a map．She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns．The other driver has no goal or destination or map．She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver．But she drivers aimlessly around, never getting anywhere , just using up gas and oil．Which driver do you want to be?

       Winners in life set goals and follow through on them．They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals．Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident．Goals aren’t difficult to set, and they aren’t difficult to reach．It’s up to you to find out what your goals, ideals and visions really are．You are the one who must decide what to pursue and in what direction to aim your life．

       Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it．Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power．Like a contract （合同） with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget．

       Also when you write your goals in a particular way you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goals．

1．The author gave the example of two drivers to show_______．

       A．the foolishness of the first driver

       B．the importance of having a map and right direction

       C．the foolishness of the second driver

       D．the importance of setting goals

2．According to this text, the most important thing in realizing one's ideal is to _____．

       A．try to be realistic about one's ability

       B．have a clear understanding of what he or she wants in life

       C．let others understand him or her first, then work together with them

       D．let others help him or her to make his or her dream come true

3．If people want to reach their goals, they should ______．

       A．write down their goals

       B．sign a contract with other people

       C．face the difficulties in front of them

       D．discuss with others and ask for their help

4．If you want to succeed, you must _____．

       A．study hard                                 B．have a goal and achieve it

       C．live happily                                 D．sleep well

4、Running like the wind, roaring （咆哮）like thunder, tigers have long been feared and respected as a king of the animal world．But last week a report said that there are no more than 30 wild tigers left in south China．

       This was the conclusion of a team of scientists from China's State Forestry Administration and the World Nature Fund．

       The South China tiger, also known as the Chinese tiger, is native to southern China．In the 1950's, there were over 4000 tigers found in mountain forests in the country．But due to the destruction of their natural habitat （栖息地） and uncontrolled hunting, it has been pushed on to the list of the world's top ten most endangered species．

       Sixty-six of the big cats can be found in the cages of a dozen zoos around China．But they are nothing like their wild cousins．They have lost their natural skills such as hunting and killing．If they were set free they could not look after themselves．

       "Breeding has damaged the quality of the species", said Pei Enle, deputy director of the Shanghai Zoo．

       To reintroduce the species into the wild, the country started a programme to send five to ten young tigers to South Africa．Four of them have already arrived．Progress has been made as two elder tigers have recovered some of their instincts（本能） and can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base．

       " South Africans are very experienced in reintroducing big animals to the wild．The country has very good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in", said Lu Jun, office director of the National Wildlife Research and Development Center．" We tried in Fujian Province, but it was not successful as there was not a complete eco-chain（生物链） and there was a lack of space．"

The tigers should return to China in 2007 when the reservations in Fujian are ready．

1．What is the main reason for the South China tiger becoming one of the world's top ten most endangered species?

       A．Because it has lost its natural instincts．

       B．Because there is not a complete eco-chain．

       C．Because there is no space for it．

       D．Because uncontrolled hunting has destroyed its natural living conditions．

2．How is the programme of sending several tigers to South Africa getting on?

       A．Its effect still remains to be seen．

       B．Two tigers can already compete with their wild cousins．

       C．Some of the tigers are already on the road to recovering their natural skills．

       D．The tigers should be able to recover their instincts completely by 2007．

3．By saying " but they are nothing like their wild cousins", the writer means that ______．

       A．they are no longer feared by other wild animals

       B．they don't know how to hunt or kill

       C．a complete change has resulted in the species because of breeding

       D．to reintroduce them into the wild has become an urgent task

4．What is the purpose of sending young tigers to South Africa?

       A．To help the tigers recover their ability to live in the wild．

       B．To provide them with a better environment．

       C．To get the tigers to go on a tour．

       D．To find a complete eco-chain for them．

5．Which one is not the reason for South Africa being chosen as the training place?

       A．Because the tigers can hunt wild animals by themselves at the African base．

       B．Because South Africans are skilled at dealing with the tigers．

       C．Because there is a complete eco-chain and enough space there．

       D．Because the country has good natural conditions for the tigers to learn in．
