　　It was the last figure skating competition for this season.Our team must beat every other team to enter the state competition.
Skaters were practicing all over the ice.Suddenly my teammate Danielle knocked her head hard on the ice and cried loudly, then she was carried out of the rink(冰场) and sent to hospital.
“Allison,” Coach Janice came up to me,“Danielle can’t 　1　 today. So I need you to do the axel(前外一周半跳).”  
“Coach,” I couldn’t even think of words, “I only 　2　 it for the first time three weeks ago!” 
“I know, but you’re the only one besides Danielle who can do it.”
At that moment, the weight of the world was on my shoulders.The axel is a high point jump, and it can make or break a team’s 　3　.I couldn’t be the one to stop us from going to states.But I would be, I knew it. 
My teammates were all very 　4　.They all came up, smiled and told me I would do great.But that only made me more nervous. 
It was my turn.Ready or not, I had to go.I built up some speed and jumped, hoping I would land 　5　.But I didn’t.I fell on the ice, hard.I could feel the blood rushing to my cheeks. 
“Allison, take the reskate,” the coach came to me
Once, and only once in a competition, a team can have one skater skate again.It was still early, and someone else would need the chance later.I couldn’t use it, since I might fall again and 　6　 it. 
“I can’t, Coach!”
“Allison, you can do it.Calm down, jump high, and land it.Go!”
So I went.I raised an arm towards the judges, letting them know I was going to take the reskate.The audience got into complete 　7　.It seemed that everybody was holding their breath.I tried to focus.I took off and rotated(旋转) my body as much as possible in the air.Then I came down, landing on my feet.I did it! My teammates screamed with 　8　. 
Finally, our team won! We were going to states! Landing that axel made me feel like I could do anything, and who knows, maybe I could.

　　For as long as I can remember, I’ve always looked up to my elder brother.No matter how old I am, I always see myself copying every small thing that he does.I play the video games that he plays, I copy his hairstyle, and I eat the type of food that he eats.
My brother is like a superhero in my eyes.He was a straight A student at high school as well as the captain of the school soccer team.It’s been difficult trying to live up to the expectations that were set by my brother, but whether consciously(有意识地) or not, I’ll always try to be like him.He motivates(激励) me like a rabbit motivates a wolf.The wolf’s goal is food, while mine is to be as outstanding as my brother.
Younger brothers can influence the behavior of elder siblings (brothers and sisters) just as much as an elder brother can influence a younger sibling.I had a conversation with my brother about his experience growing up with me.He joked with me that it felt like the world punished him with having to deal with me.Yet he expressed that he was grateful to me, because he understood I would take inspiration from him so he chose to be his best self.My brother and I have inspired each other to do the best we can.
A researcher Birg Rabe has found a correlation(相关性) between a sibling relationship where younger siblings’ marks have improved because they have an elder sibling as their role model.“The younger siblings’ marks rose by 4%.The effect was greater among siblings from poorer families, and the rise was 11%.” Having a sibling undoubtedly benefits children’s school achievement.
Not only can siblings influence each other’s study, but they can positively benefit each other’s social behavior as well.A study done by researchers in the Brigham Young University shows that children with sound or pleasant sibling relationships have learned important social skills, such as helping and being able to share with others.They’ve also learned to deal with arguments and how to solve them.I bet anyone who has a sibling knows the struggle of having to argue for days with their sibling, but I also bet, that they learn important lessons from each other of their arguments.
Even though you may hear many bad things about having a sibling, it actually has some unexpected benefits.Learn to enjoy all the benefits a sibling brings you, and be the best sibling you can.

D.learn more important social skills than their friends
11.The underlined word “sound” in Paragraph 5 probably means “　　　　”. (　　)

12.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? (　　)
A.The New Hope that Siblings Give

Mom’s Recipe for Life
I have a lot of Mom’s recipes in a blue box where all my special ones were put, like the pumpkin pie she made during my growing up years.Even so,the recipe I treasure most is not on any index card, nor did she send it to me in a letter.Instead, she lived this recipe all of her life.
My mother grew up in a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa.My grandfather once told me that she knew no stranger; she considered everyone in that community her friend.That attitude continued wherever she lived for the rest of her life.
As a teen,I was embarrassed(尴尬的)every time my mother talked to strangers and offered a smile to everyone in the store or on the city bus.Almost all of them responded(回应) with a bright smile of their own.Some spoke, and others nodded their heads at this elderly woman who brought a little light into their day.
What really sold me on Mom’s approach to life was her experience on the senior bus.The weeks I could not be there,she used this low-cost transportation to the grocery store.After her first trip, I asked her how it went.
“Ha!” she said,“I got on that bus and what did I see? Thirteen little old ladies and one old man,and not one word was spoken.”
I wondered how long it would be until the silence on that bus would change.On my next visit, Mom mentioned the 13 little old ladies on the bus and something one of them had told her.
“Oh, are you talking with them now?” I asked.
“Of course,”she said.“One day I climbed up the steps of the bus and before I looked for a seat,I gave them a big smile and I said, ‘Isn’t it a wonderful day?’ I noticed a few shy smiles.”
Mom didn’t give up.She greeted them all each time she got on the bus and before long, the whole group was laughing and talking to one another.The bus became more than just transportation.
When we went to the various stores,I watched as she smiled and chatted with perfect strangers.Some of them looked like the poorest person you’d ever met,but once Mom smiled at them and started a conversation,most responded favorably.My mother didn’t embarrass me any longer.I found myself admiring her.
She’s been gone for ten years but I’ve carried on her recipe for life.It was me who had done the smiling first and all those people had responded.My mother didn’t lecture but taught me by example.She’d given me a recipe for life.
13.Where did the writer’s mom grow up?

14.Did the people talk on the bus on Mom’s first trip?

15.What did Mom do to make the bus more than transportation?

16.How did the writer feel about Mom in the end?

17.What is Mom’s recipe for life?
