A
All you have is what you bring with you
I’ve always felt a need to be prepared for whatever situation I’ve found myself in.
My mother once took me to a store when I was seven years old. She and I got to the checkout counter, and she realized she had forgotten a couple of things on her shopping list. She left me with the cart and ran off to get what she needed.
“I’ll be right back.” she said.
She was gone just a few minutes, but in that time, I had loaded all the things on the belt and everything was rung up. I was left staring at the cashier, who was staring at me. “Do you have money for me, son?” she said. “I’ll need to be paid.”
I didn’t realize she was just trying to amuse herself. So I stood there, ashamed and embarrassed.
By the time my mom returned, I was angry. “You left me here with no money! This lady asked me for the money, and I had nothing to give her!”
Now that I’m an adult, you’ll never catch me with less than $200 in my wallet. I want to be prepared in case I need it.
I’ve always admired people who are over-prepared. In college, I had a classmate named Norman. One day he was giving a presentation on an overhead projector and in the middle of his talk, the light bulb (灯泡) on the projector blew out. We would have to wait ten minutes until someone found a new projector.
“It’s Okay.” he announced. “There’s nothing to worry about.”
We watched him walk over to his bag and pull something out. He had brought along a spare bulb for the overhead projector. Who could even think of that?
I often told my students, “When you go into the wilderness, the only thing you can depend on is what you take with you.” And essentially, the wilderness is anywhere but your home or office. So take money. Pack a light bulb. Be prepared.
1. Why did the cashier ask a seven-year-old boy to pay for the purchases?
A. The boy was shopping by himself.
B. The boy’s mother asked her to do so.
C. The cashier was playing a joke on him.
D. The boy’s mother was away for something else.
2. Why was the boy angry with his mother?
A. His mother left him alone.
B. He lost face in front of the cashier.
C. His mother forgot to buy something.
D. He had just quarreled with the cashier.
3. Why did Norman bring a spare bulb with him?
A. He was always well-prepared.
B. His presentation was about bulbs.
C. He knew the classroom equipment was of poor quality.
D. He predicted the bulb on the projector would blow out.
4. What do the two stories tell us?
A. Accidents happen almost every day.
B. Money is the key that opens all doors.
C. In fair weather, prepare for a rainy day.
D. Chances favor those who are well-prepared.
B
Sports are the base of my life, next to my mother who raised me when my dad left us. I have been into sports since I was six years old. I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips, but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play.
When I was in Senior two, I met the new school basketball coach, Brian Pawloski. I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before. I showed up to the tryouts（选拔赛） and put out about 90% effort since I thought I’d make it with no problem. That was a big mistake.
Brian Pawloski is the hardest-working coach I have ever met. He didn’t expect 100% effort, he expected 200% effort. One example: he once made us do 40 suicide drills for the 40 lay-ups(投篮) we missed in a game. Some think this is crazy, but it isn’t. After this conditioning practice, as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink, I said, “Coach, that was the best practice I ever had.” I was completely sincere. This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school. He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom. If I am not working on basketball, I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life’s challenges, including Wooden, Coach, and The Screwtape Letters.
In the first two years I slacked off, not putting forth my full potential. Now, unlike the coaches of my youth, this man was interested in how we did off the court. He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted. I can honestly say that no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball, but more importantly, in life. My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach, coach and influence their students. I will always remember my high-school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual.
5. Different from other coaches, Coach Brian _____________.
A. concentrated on skill training
B. trained the team to the edge of death
C. expected the team to do well in their studies
D. asked the team to do more reading than training
6. The underlined phrase “slacked off” in the last paragraph probably means ______________.
A. paid no attention B. showed no interest C . had less passion D. made less effort
7. In the author’s eyes, Coach Brian is ____________.
A. strict and helpful B. hardworking and honest
C. skilled and cruel D. professional and serious
C

Every day we are exposed to images, videos, music and news. In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation, the medium of radio is making a great comeback.
“We’re at the beginning of a golden age of audio,” said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald. In the last month alone, 15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast(播客). These statistics, released by Edison Research, show the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present day’s digital podcast format. The term “podcast” was invented in 2004, but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years. With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smart phonesand tablets, podcast sales have jumped.
The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities(功能). You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when you’re walking to the shops, waiting in a queue or riding the subway. Similar to television shows, podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week.
Donna Jackson, 22, Sydney University media graduate, listens to podcasts two or three times a week, via iTunes. “I listen while I’m wandering around the house doing something else. It makes completing a boring task much more enjoyable… And it’s an easy way of keeping in touch with what’s going on in the rest of the world,” she said. “I mainly listen to BBC podcasts, but recently I’ve also been listening to This American Life and Serial. They have a special skill to really draw you in.”
Unlike television and music, the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers. Blumberg says this owes to the podcast’s ability “to create close relationship and emotional connection.” Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust, majoring in social work and arts, agrees. “When you’re listening, it feels as if the voice of the podcast’s storyteller is talking directly to you. It’s comforting,” said Proust.
It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well.
12. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that _________.
A. traditional broadcast has come back
B. Americans love listening to the radio
C. podcasts have become very popular today
D. smart phones sell well because of podcasts
13. The writer mentions Donna Jackson mainly to _________.
A. tell how young people relax themselves
B. explain why young people like podcasts
C. introduce what programs podcasts are presenting
D. show how popular podcasts are among the young
14. Paragraph 5 is mainly about __________.
A. the influence of radios
B. the advantage of podcasts
C. readers’ impression on radios
D. people’s reaction to the medium
15. What is probably the best title of the passage?
A. Return of Radio B. Opinions of Podcast
C. Features of Radio D. Technology of Podcast

For people with thousands of pages to read, speed reading seems like a manna (甘露) from heaven. In addition, speed reading helps lighten the load of information you have to absorb since it provides a filter that you can use in screening all bits of information before you approach them.
16 Examining how much information you need will help you identify how you should read a certain document to maximize your learning and comprehension. Thorough reading may no longer be necessary in some cases, such as when you only need an outline of a certain document.
Another skill that can ease the burden of a reader is the ability to read words in blocks. Make sure you do not spend too long on a certain block. 17 This will also make reading less tiresome and boring.
To master this important skill, you have to practice reading more and more words in a certain block at one time. A suggestion shared by some experts regarding this step is to increase the distance between you and the document you are reading. If you can read more and more words in one block, you can cut down on the time it usually takes you to read a certain text and you will be able to read more in a shorter period.
Readers should also practice reducing the number of times they go back to previous sections or blocks. Using a pointer such as the tip of a pencil or pen can also help to make the flow of your reading smoother and faster. 18 Thus, your speed in reading will largely depend on the speed of the movement of your pointer.
If you still find yourself confused about the topic even after you have finished reading the document, do not re-read right away. Re-reading immediately will just lead to slower speed in reading. 19 Getting your own reading corner will also help.
20 Continue practicing and practicing the techniques aforementioned(上述的) ,and soon you’ll achieve the reading speed that will work best for you.
A. In this technique, your eyes will follow the tip of the pointer.
B. This saves time and reduces the effort that you have to make.
C. Taking a short break first is recommended before reading the material again.
D. As a final note, the most important point is consistent and deliberate（有条理的）practice.
E. Your invaluable time can be saved if you can have your reading speed doubled.
F. The first step to increase your reading speed is to identify the specific information you need.
G. Reducing the time you spend on a specific number of words in a block will make no big difference.

The most important lesson I learned in high school had nothing to do with maths or American history. It came at graduation, several minutes before I left Miramonte High School.
I was rather shy back then, content to 21 around with my few friends and to concentrate on my 22 . I was doing so well that by the end of senior year I had perfect scores and enough 23 to go to college.
But my good record soon became a 24 to my well-being. In early June of senior year, the headmaster called me into his office. He asked me to give a leave-taking speech at graduation. I looked at hi
