I have probably learned more than valuable lessons from it than from school. When I joined the team freshman year, I didnt realize what I was getting into

17、. Even though I had been playing since fourth grade and knew it was hard work, nothing would prepare me for the effort I would put into football that year. We worked all summer in the weight room and ran on the track to get in physical and mental shape before the season.See, football is more of a me

18、ntal sport than anything else, so running on the track wasnt only about getting in shape. We would push our minds by running as hard as we could even if we felt like we were going to pass out. At the beginning, I was immature (幼稚的) and only thought of myself, sometimes even giving up when I was tire

19、d or hurting. Then after the third game I had a season-ending injury. Imagine working all summer and then only being able to play three games! I needed an operation on my arm and at least five months to recover.After freshman year I decided that I would always give my best effort. Playing football i

20、n the college has taught me so much more than just what my tasks are on a particular play or how to block. I have learned to think about others first, and realized how important working hard is. Being with all my friends, even sweating and bleeding with them, really made us unite as a group of hard-

21、working young men, who will succeed in life.56. What is the text mainly about? A. How the author dislikes the game of football. B. When the author began to play football. C.

A. becoming physically fit B. designing the playground C. losing weight D. measuring the trackBIn a traditional Chinese family，women are ex

23、pected to do the housekeeping and leave the “other business” to men.However，the appearance of the fulltime “house husband” is changing traditional families.A survey in Beijing，Shanghai，Guangzhou and Shenzhen shows that 22 percent,73 percent,34 percent and 32 percent of whitecollar male workers，aged

24、between 28 and 33，would be prepared to do the housekeeping if the conditions were right.Yang Wenhui,32 years old，worked at the office of a company prefer to quit the job.“My job was dull and steady.I was not promoted.My wife，in contrast，really likes her job.So，after our baby was born，I chose to stay

25、 at home and take care of the family while my wife works outside home，”said Yang.Sociologists have found the fulltime house husband emerges in three main situations.Firstly，if the wife is ambitious，wellpaid and has good job prospects，while her husband is paid poorly and has no job prospects，it makes

26、 economic sense for the woman to become the main income earner for the household.Secondly，if the wife is tired of household chores and eager to work outside the home，her husband may forfeit his job.Thirdly，if the husband can do his work at home，he may take this choice as it allows him more time to t

27、ake care of the family.Influenced by traditional ideas，some families with fulltime house husbands prefer others not to know about their arrangement，concerned people would laugh at a husband with “no prospects” or wife who is “too strong”Zhou Wei said he has become usual to being a fulltime house hus

31、CWhen other nine-year-old kids were playing games, she was working at a petrol station. When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard Univer

32、sity. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story”, shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enoug

33、h food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided

34、 to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets. “What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I

35、 had only experienced a small part of the society,” she wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finis

36、hed high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I nev

37、er forget that they love me all the time.”Liz wants moviegoers (who often see films) to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simple as making a decision”.63. In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a. Her mother died of AIDS.b. She worked at a petrol station.c. She go

38、t admitted into Harvard.d. The movie about her life was put on.e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.A. b, a, e, c, d B. a, b, c, e, d C. e, d, b, a, c D. b, e, a, d, c64. The main idea of the passage is _.A. how Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityB. what a hard time Liz had in her childho

39、odC. why Liz loved her parents so muchD. how Liz struggled to change her life65. What actually made her go towards her goal?A. Envy and competition. B. Willpower and determination.C. Decisions and understanding. D. Love and respect for her parents.66. When she wrote “What drove me to live on.I had o

40、nly experienced a small part of the society”, she meant that _.A. she had little experience of social life B. she could hardly understand the societyC. she would do something for her own life D. she needed to travel more around the worldDIn 1999, twelve percent of public elementary schools in the Un

41、ited States required students to wear uniforms(校服). Just three years later, the amount was almost double that.A study of six big-city Ohio public schools showed students who were required to wear uniforms had improved graduation, behavior and attendance rates. Academic performance was unchanged.Some

42、 high schools in Texas have also joined in the movement. Yet studies find mixed results from requiring uniforms. And some schools have turned away from such policies.Supporters believe dressing the same creates a better learning environment and safer schools. The school district in Long Beach, Calif

43、ornia, was the first in the country to require uniforms in all elementary and middle schools. The example helped build national interest in uniforms as a way to deal with school violence and improve learning. Findings in Long Beach suggested that the policy resulted in fewer behavior problems and be

44、tter attendance. But researcher Viktoria, who has looked at those findings, says they were based only on opinions about the effects of uniforms.She says other steps taken at the same time to improve schools in Long Beach and statewide could have influenced the findings. The district (the area marked

45、 by government) increased punishments for misbehavior. And California passed a law to reduce class sizes. In Florida, for example, researcher Sharon found that uniforms seemed to improve behavior and reduce violence. In Texas, Eloise found fewer discipline problems among students required to wear un

46、iforms, but no effect on attendance. Sociologist David has studied school uniform policies since1998. He collected the reports in the book. In his own study, he found that reading and mathematics performance dropped after a school in Pennsylvania(宾夕法尼亚州) required uniforms. Political and community pressures may
