小题1:考查动名词及上下文的呼应。shouting大叫； screaming尖叫； laughing笑；applauding喝彩。根据后文的描述可知，作者认为自己不是踢足球的料，所以当足球教练 Mr.Ledy劝他踢足球时他禁不住“笑”起来。故选C。

小题8:考查动词及上下文的呼应。win赢，后不能接人； meet遇见； beat打败；    fight战斗。根据后面的again可知，Crystal Falls球队再次打败了作者的球队，故用beat。win后面通常不跟人作宾语，故排除。故选C。
小题9:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。accessible易易接近的； comfortable舒适的； sensitive敏感的； acceptable可接受的。但是这次的比分是30:20，这次的比分和上一次比起来是“可以接受的”。故选D。

Who is setting your standards for you ?
A true story has it that one elder man  36  to jog around the local high school football field. As he huffed and puffed(气喘吁吁) along, the team was  37 . The players soon started running sprints up and down the field. The man told himself “I will 38  keep running until they quit.”
So he ran. And they ran. And he ran some more. And they kept running. And he kept running until he 39  finally run no more. He stopped in  40 . One of the players, equally out of breath, approached him and said in a crying voice, “Boy, I am so glad that you finally stopped. 41  told us we had to keep running  42 the old guy who was jogging !” He was watching them. They were watching him. He was letting them set his 43 , on the contrary, they allow him to set 44 .
My question is this: Are you keeping  45  with somebody else in your daily life? Are you 46  people to set your standards for you?

Do you keep pace with those  49  you, or do you decided yourself just 50  you will live your life? The true is that only you are  51 to determine what your standards will be.
Set your standards too low, and you will know only  52 . But set high standards and you can live an immeasurably full and  53 life. For only when you  54  the best that is within yourself, will you experience great living. Just as an old saying goes: “Think big 55 , and win big success.”

It was the first snow of winter – an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots.
In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
“They’re my brother’s boots, you know,” I said. “I hate them!”
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl, She pushed and pushed, less gently this time. With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens（连指手套）?”
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I hid them in the toes of my boots.”
小题1:The little girl was more satisfied with her__________-.
A．trousersB．jacketC．bootsD．hat
小题2:Miss Finlayson had difficulty with the girl’s second boot mainly because_____.
A．the girl got them from her brotherB．the girl put something in them
C．they were on the wrong feetD．they did not fit the girl well
小题3:Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
A．Because the little girl was in her brother’s clothes.
B．Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
C．Because the little girl played a trick on her.
D．Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.

In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed By an Austrian conductor decided to hold an intemational festival of music,dance and theatre in EdinBurgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the Belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a puBlic house disused for years.
Soon,groups of studentsfirstly from EdinBurgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and CamBridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre By little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of EdinBurgh.
Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yetas early as 1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too Big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the numBer rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows By over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.
小题1:Point was the purpose of EdinBurgh Festival at he Beginning?

C．To introduce young theatre groups.
D．To attract great artists from Europe.
