Sport is very popular in England,In other words lots of English people like the idea of sport.A lot watch sport on TV.But the number who take part in sport is quite small.On the whole English people prefer to be fat rather than thin.

The most popular sport in England is football.Football is played on Saturday afternoon in most towns and the supporters of a certain team will travel from one end of the Country to the other to see their team play.There are four divisions(级别）of the footballleague.Not surprisingly the best teams are in the first division.But the best supportersare often in the fourth division.You have to be a good supporter to watch the fourth division football!

Many other sports are also played in England,such as golf,in which you try to knocka ball into a hole;basketball,in which you try to get a ball through a net;tennis,in whichyou try to hit a ball so that your opponent(对手）can not hit it."As you see,if the ball had not been invented,there would have been no sport.

Actually,that is not quite true.s Athletics(田径）isn't played with a ball;nor horseracing.Perhaps that is why they are not as popular as football!3.Why do many English people not take part in sport?（）

10.Passage ThreeIf women are mercilessly exploited (剥削) year after year, they are only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of beihg seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe (衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened;necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be treated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stabililty and feasibility?That's for you to decide. According to the passage,which of the following statements is TRUE?

In china, it is relatively usual to ask people their age, but in the west, this question is generally regarded as impolite. This is particularly true 61 women, and even more 62 if the inquirer is a man. However, it is 63 to ask children their age, and some adults may not mind 64 either. In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to 65 their age, especially if they feel they look young 66 their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 67 question like ―How old are you?‖if elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they may easily 68 the topic themselves, and ask the other person to 69

how old they are. 70 such a situation, it is quite acceptable to discuss age 71.They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than 72 that they look very old! 73 westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not 74 that they are not interested to know how old other people

are. They may ask 75 for the information, 76 they may try to 77 the topic indirectly. Sometimes discussions about educational 78 and the number of years of working experience may provide some 79 , but this is not always the 80 .72.

13.It’s interesting that technology often works as a servant for us, yet frequently we become a servantto it. E?mail is a useful tool but many feel controlled by this new vehicle. The averagebusinessperson is getting about 80 e?mails per day and many feel that about 80% of the messagesin their “In Box” are of little or no value.So, I have four suggestions to help you to become better at “Easing E?mail”.1.Get off the lists. The best way to deal with a problem is to never have it. If you are receiving a lotof unwanted e?mails, ask to be removed from the various lists. This would include your inclusionin unwanted “cc” lists(抄送名单).2.“Unlisted address”.Just like getting an “unlisted” telephone number that you share only withthose whom you want to give direct access, you might want to get a separate e?mail address onlyfor the important communications you wish to receive.3.Check it once or twice per day.Many I speak with are becoming chained to their email server,monitoring incoming email on a continuous basis. Maybe this is because e?mail creates its ownsense of urgency, but most of the communications are not all that urgent. I respond to them acouple of times per day.4.Deal with it. As you open each e?mail do one of the following:a.If it requires a quick response, respond to it and delete it.b.If it requires a response but is not the best use of your time, try to find someone else to do it.c.If it is going to take any serious amount of time to respond, schedule it for action in your DayPlanner and then download the message, save it, or print it out for future action.I personally receive approximately 250 e?mails per day and by practicing the suggestions above, Ican handle that volume in about an hour, taking advantage of this fantastic tool but not beingcontrolled by it to the distraction(分心)of more important tasks in my day.If you get unwanted e?mails, the best you can do is to .

There is much about hibernation that puzzles scientists．For example，they are wondering how hibernation came into being．Some scientists have explored the possibility that animals release a chemicalthat starts them hibernating． One thing that scientists are certain about is that animals hibernate only when it is cold．Hibernation is a seasonal practice. Some animals that fall into a wintertime sleep are not true hibernators because they spend only apart of the cold season asleep．Bears，for example，can easily be awakened from their winter nap．They are not true hibernators． Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a particular animal is a true hibernator．Forexample，some mice hibernate，but others do not．The same is true of bats．Some of them hibernate．Other do not．Hibernation is a seasonal practice．This means it．
