　　One spring afternoon five years ago, Jimmy Liao was crying in the hall of Taipei’s Sherwood Hotel. Life seemed 31 . The people who laughed as they walked past were taking their 32 for granted, just as he 3３ himself. Now, however, he felt 34 －and he couldn’t even show his disappointment in his 35 .
Seeking more personally satisfying 36 , he had just left a successful job as a commercial(商业的) artist when it seemed that fate （命运）played a cruel 37 on him. It was at this time that he developed cancer and was 38 to work. But that moment in the hotel was a turning point for Jimmy . He began to 39 the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only 40 . Since then, he has published several imaginative, illustrated （带插图的）books.
According to Jimmy, you are 41 you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Jimmy realized that, while the world 42 seems unfair, your choice can change your life.
This idea can be 43 in Jimmy’s books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel 44 making their choices. The message that goes with Jimmy’s drawings, however, is 45 . Though the world may make us feel small, we must be 46 . Everything will be all right for us －as it is for the “small people”in Jimmy’s books－if we make choices that are 47 for us.

三、阅读理解（共５小题；每小题２分，满分１０分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humourist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Taking all amateur（业余）and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated（起源于）in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby(橄榄球), which is called “football”in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.
In summer, cricket(板球) is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.
Table tennis, or“ping-pong”, surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.
51. The main purpose of Paragraph 1 is to tell us that the English _______.
A. are all sports lovers B. behave like children
C. like to kick a ball around D. can remain young all their lives
52. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?
A. They differ in the shape of the ball. B. They are played by different numbers of players.
C. They both can be handled. D. They both can be kicked.
53. The game that was never played in Britain until the late 19th century is _________.
A. basketball B. tennis C. rugby D. football
54. What would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Most Popular Sports B. The English Sports
C. History of Sports D. Sports in Britain
55. Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?
A. Soccer originated in Britain.
B. Rugby is played by two teams of eleven.
C. Cricket is very popular with the British.
D. Tennis was introduced into England in the 15th century.
