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!

Passage Four

I hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At young age you ought to be growing away from you parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet.

But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are a1l taking the same way of snowing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out on their own，most of them are clutching at one another’s hands for reassurance.

They say they want to dress as they please，but all of them wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music ，but all of them end up huddled round listening to the same record.Their reason for thinking or acting in this and that way is that the crowd is doing it. (84)It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and go his or her own way. These days every teenager can 1earn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And

many of today ’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. (85)All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.

But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don ’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well ，go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-will the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.The author thinks of advertisements as _____.

9.Friends become a child’s chosen family. If his social life is going well, he gains confidence. If he hastrouble connecting, it hurts and can make him feel sad and withdrawn and lonely.1.Help your child communicate. Naturally outgoing kids have an easier time expressing theirinterest in other children than shy ones do. But you can help build this skill through practice. Askyour child about his favorite games and toys. Praise him for specifics when he shows interest inother people:” You were so nice to let Roger talk about his little dog. I am proud of you.”2.Keep play short and sweet. Parents should keep early play date short, so no one gets too tiredand everyone has fun. Schedule the next one soon after that, so kids can quickly build on theircomfort foundation.3.Know your child. If your child is bossy, tale with him and agree beforehand on which toys will beshared and which ones should be put away because your child just can’t seem to share them. Ifyou have a shy child, match him with a younger child so he has a chance to be the leader.4.Help your child help others. Encourage your child to be a better friend by helping him includeothers in play. If you see someone being excluded, don’t ignore it. This is an opportunity to workon your child’s ability to understand others. “Rachel is being left out. That must make her feel very sad. Can you think of a way to include her in the game?”5.Help your kids help themselves. If your child is the one who’s being ignored or treated badly,teach him to speak up.What is probably the best title for the passage?

11.Amnesty (大赦) Interational is a world-wide volunteer organization funded entirely by subscriptions and donations．It is totally independent of any government, political faction, ideology, economic interest or religious creed. 　　The organization works for the release of "Prisoners of Conscience" -men, women and children imprisoned anywhere for their beliefs, color, sex, ethnic origin, language or religion．It also seeks fair and immediate trial for all political prisoners detained (拘留) without charge, and opposes torture and the degrading treatment of prisoners．It is also against the death penalty for all types of crime. 　　Amnesty works by collecting information．When it has proof that a person is a " Prisoner of Conscience" , that person's case is handed over to a local group．The local groups are ordinary individuals who believe in Amnesty's work．They send letters to governments, embassies, leading newspapers and the prisoner's family and friends．They also collect signatures and raise money to send medicine, food and clothing to the prisoners and their families．These volunteers use their freedom of speech to win the same freedom for their adopted prisoner. 　　Paradoxically, Amnesty International is an organization that will only be satisfied when it has become redundant (多余的) .[单选题] Amnesty International is supported__．

12.Have you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings(误解)? Little wonder. We often believe we’re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are, according to Boza Keysar, a professor at the University of Chicago. In his recent study, speakers tried to express their meanings using unclear sentences. Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the time. Here’s some good advice to reduce misunderstanding:　　(1)Don’t trust what you see from the listener. Listeners often nod, look at you or say “uhhuh” to be polite or move the conversation along. But it’s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.　　(2)Train the editor(编辑) in your head. If you say, “Beth discusses her problems with her husband,” it’s not clear whether she’s talking to her husband or about him. Try instead, “Beth talks to her husband about her problems.” or “Beth talks to others about the problems with her husband.”　　(3)Ask listeners to repeat your message. Introduce your request by saying “I want to be sure I said that right.” Questions like “How does that sound?” or “Does that make sense?” may also work.(4)Listen well. When on the receiving end, ask questions to be sure you’re on the same page. After all, it isn’t just the speaker’s job to make his speech understood.By training the editor in your head, the speakers are advised

18.Nothing says “Happy Birthday!” like having a coin released in your honor by the United States Mint(铸币局)，and 2009 has become an especially festive year as the Mint rolled out nine different coins in honor of Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday.Four pennies with new designs on the reverse side were issued stsrting February 12. The image of a cabin represents his birthplace. Because Lincoln’s family was poor,and no one could have predicted his later importance,the actual cabin is long gone.Therefore the design is based on the “symbolic cabin” displayed at the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site in Kentucky.The other designs show Abraban taking a break to read a book, the young lawyer lincoln in front of the Illinois state capitol and a Lincoln-free image of the half finished U.S.Capitol dome as it looked during his time in office. These four coins-produced with today’s standard mix of 97.5 percent zinc and 2.5 percent copper-are intended for genernal circulation.The Mint also relwased five collectible coins that sell for more than their face value . Specialeditions of the four penny designs were produced with the metal content used in 1909:a mix of 95 percent copper and 5 percent tin and zinc . In addition, I the world of “bigger” money,2009has brought the Lincoln Commemorative One-Dollar Coin-made up of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper-with an image that has a Gettysburg Address theme.Special editions of the 4collectible coins_______.
