Most mornings, Marcus Jackson is up by 6:15. A fourteen-year old in Harry Potter-style glasses,
he wastes little 1
before rushing down the
stairs of his home. As Mom 2 breakfast, he heads straight for a
kitchen drawer and 3 out a Ping-pong paddle and ball. For the
next five minutes, Marcus practices serves off the refrigerator.
“I can hit the ball really 4
so that the other person

that he holds the number-one ranking in table tennis for boys under 15 in 6 .
He 7 his success to a set of practice that

old, Marcus has spent two hours a day, six days a week, 9 with his dad, Morris, who won the
national table-tennis 10 in 1988. He also receives lessons from
Cheng Yinghua and Jack Huang, two former Chinese National Team members.
When Marcus was eight, he 11 himself to be a force in the sport by winning
the United States Table Tennis Association National Championships (Under-ten).
Since then, his talent has led him all over the country for competitions. Along
the way, he has learned how to deal with 12 as well. “I know when to step back if I
get 13 ,” Marcus says. He’s also 14 a bit of the true spirit of sports.

a quick move of his thumb over the shoulder ― to let Marcus know he 16 allow his opponent (對(duì)手) to score 17 once. At 10 to 0, Marcus finally gave 18 a score. He took the next point, for an
11-to-1 victory.
Apart from table tennis, Marcus enjoys Game Boy, basketball and
swimming. The straight-A student hopes to study electrical engineering at an

Learning English is a great challenge, but with a little help from
technology it can be as easy as a piece of cake.
As well as the
classroom, teachers and textbooks, the Internet, TV and radio programs can play
an active role in helping learn English. The Internet is full of rich and
up-to-date information. English learners might wish to try. This website is
co-established by the British Council, the BBC World Service and Central Radio
and TV University. It provides cultural information about Britain and has
an example of the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) that
students can use for practice. Different levels of grammar tests can also be
found.
Make friends online
Another useful website
for middle school students and teachers is. Besides reading 21st Century School
Edition online, students are also invited to put their views on different
topics up on the website.
Users have the
opportunity to make friends with people who share their interests.
In the teaching and
learning section, there are reading and vocabulary tips for students.
Compared with the Internet, TV programs
have their own advantages: one does not have to sit at a computer and the audio
and visual effects can even be relaxing.
One popular
English-learning program is called "Modern English". This focuses on
oral English in practical situations such as taking photos and shopping.
The short dialogues
and useful phrases may help students to express themselves if they go abroad or
meet foreigners in China.
More than 50 TV stations in about 300 cities have aired the program.
Word to World
If you watch Beijing
Television Channel 8, you might see a program titled "Study Abroad".
On this show Professor Wang Qiang from New Oriental
School hosts "From
Word to World".
He selects words with
a deep cultural background and teaches useful phrases related to that word.
Cartoons are also used to explain how to use the word in daily life. Listening
to the radio may not be a new way to learn English but it is easy.
China Radio
International airs a program called "Studio Classroom" at 6:30 a.m.
every day. This 25-minute program is aimed at middle school students and covers
subjects from current news to travel and history, all in simple language.

A
cactus(仙人掌) stood all alone
in the desert, wondering why it was stuck in the middle of nowhere. "I do
nothing but stand here all day," it sighed. "What use am I? I’m the
ugliest plant in the desert. My spines (脊骨) are
thick and prickly (多刺), my leaves are
rubbery and tough, I can't offer shade or juicy fruit to any passing traveler.
I don’t see that I’m any use at all." All it did was stand in the sun day
after day, growing taller and fatter. Its spines grew longer and its leaves
tougher... It truly was strange-looking.
"I
wish I could do something useful," it sighed. By day, hawks circled high
overhead. "What can I do with my life?" the cactus called. Whether
they heard or not, the hawks sailed away. At night, the moon floated
into the sky and cast its pale glow on the desert floor. "What good can I
do with my life?" the cactus called. The moon only stared coldly as it
goes on its way. A lizard crawled by, leaving a little trail in the sand with
its tail. "What worthy thing can I do?" the cactus called.
"You?" the lizard laughed, pausing a moment. "Worthy deed? Why,
you can't do anything! The hawks circle ways overhead, tracing delicate
patterns for us all to admire. The moon hangs high like a lantern at night, so
we can see our way home. Even I, the lowly lizard can decorate the sands with
these beautiful brush-drawings as I pull my tail along. But you do nothing but
get uglier every day."
And so
it went on year after year. At last the cactus grew old, and it knew its time
was short. "Oh, God" it cried out, "I've wondered so long, and
I’ve tried so hard. Forgive me if I’ve failed to find something worthy to
do." But just then the cactus felt a strange stirring and unfolding. At
its very tip, like a sudden crown, a glorious flower suddenly opened in bloom.
Never had the desert known such a blossom? Its fragrance (香氣)
perfumed the air far and wide and brought happiness to all passing by.
The
butterflies paused to admire its beauty, and even the moon smiled when it rose
to find such a treasure. The cactus heard a voice. "You have waited
long," the God said. "the heart that seeks to do good reflects My
glory, and will always bring something worthwhile to the world, something in
which all can rejoice (得到喜悅)
--even if for only a moment."
1. What does the underlined word "sailed"

In a
society where lung and breast cancers are leading causes of cancer death
worldwide, early detection of the disease is highly desirable. In a new
scientific study, researchers present astonishing new evidence that man's best
friend, the dog, may have the ability to contribute to early cancer detection.
Researchers
show scientific evidence that a dog’s extraordinary smelling ability can
distinguish people with both early and late stage lung and breast cancers from
healthy people. Researchers first discovered this in the case report of a dog
warning its owner to the presence of a melanoma (惡性黑素瘤) by
constantly sniffing the skin lesion (損傷).
Later studies published in major medical magazines proved the ability of
trained dogs to detect both melanomas and bladder cancers. The new study is the
first to test whether dogs can detect cancers only by sniffing the breath of
cancer patients.
In
this study, five household dogs were trained within a short 3-week period to
detect lung or breast cancer by sniffing the breath of cancer patients. The
experiment consisted of 86 cancer patients (55 with lung cancer and 31 with
breast cancer) and 83 healthy people. All cancer patients had recently been
diagnosed with cancer and had not yet undergone any chemotherapy treatment (化療). The
dogs were presented with breath samples from the cancer patients and the
healthy ones, captured in a special tube. Dogs were trained to give a positive
identification of a cancer patient by sitting or lying down directly in front
of a test station containing a cancer patient sample, while ignoring healthy
samples.
The
results of the study showed that dogs can detect breast and lung cancer between
88% and 97%. Moreover, the study also proved that the trained dogs could even
detect the early stages of lung cancer, as well as early breast cancer. The
researchers concluded that breath analysis may become a potential of cancer
diagnosis.
1. What's the best title of the passage?
A. Can dogs smell cancer?
B. Dogs and treatment
C. A new research on breast cancer
D. An interesting experiment on lung
cancer
2. In this scientific study, five household dogs, ____ lung cancer
patients and healthy people are involved.

3. The last sentence of the passage means .
A. doctors won’t be worried about detecting cancers any more
B. dogs will be the only way to detect cancers
C. breath analysis can be used in diagnosing cancers in the future
D. dogs can use its smell to identify people
4. The research found that dogs could help detect
cancers by_______.

skin lesion

From early times, man has
been interested in art. People have often worked together to collect and save
the world's art treasures.
Fine art treasures from many
countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris, France.
The works of art have been collected by the people of France over
many centuries. It is the biggest art museum in the world.
The Louvre has not always
been a museum. The first building
was a castle. In 1190, it was the king's castle with high walls and a round
tower. It had a river to keep out the enemies.
Over the years, the number
of the buildings around the castle grew. By 1350, the castle no longer needed
to be extended. The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.
During times of peace, new
treasures were brought in. During the days of war, many treasures were stolen,
and the buildings were damaged.
When Francis I became king
of France
in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries. One of the artists
was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy.
Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" is the best-known painting in the museum
today.
In 1793, the Louvre became a
public museum, just as it is now. It is a place where art treasures are kept
for everyone to enjoy, Every year millions of people from all over the world
come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.
1. How long has the Louvre been a public
museum?
A. For over 800 years.
B. Since 1350.
C. Since 1515.
D. For over 200 years.
2. Which of the following is NOT mentioned
in the passage?
A. Da Vinci once stayed in France.
B. "Mona Lisa" is kept in the Louvre.
C. The Louvre was once a church as well as a palace.
D. The Louvre is a place of interest to different people from all over
the world.
3. We know from the passage that ________.
A.
French kings and queens ordered people to build another buildings as their
palace home in 1350
B. many treasures were brought into the Louvre in 1190
C. Francis I came into power in 1515 and damaged some buildings
D. Some works of art in the museum have been collected from many
countries

Ecotourism
The latest
buzzword in the tourism industry is “ecotourism”―responsible, environmentally
sound vacationing.Ecotourism, or “green tourism,” means taking care of
natural resources, protecting endangered species, and preserving and
contributing to local communities.
Armed with this “checklist,”
I booked a vacation in an “ecoresort.” The brochure looked appealing---a hotel
right on the beach, with a large swimming pool and golf course, in acres of
unspoiled rain forest.
Unfortunately, the
only way to get to this resort was a 12-hour flight followed by a long taxi
ride.I was relieved to see the hotel at the end of the road.It was a low-rise building, made out of local stone.But as I later found out, in order to build the resort, the wealthy
owner had bought up 30,000 square kilometers of unspoiled rain-forest.
Sunbathing by the
glorious swimming pool, enjoying the sound of sprinklers on the golf course, I
suddenly realized that this was an area where water is scarce.
So far, not so
eco-friendly.I decided to try some of the trips to nearby conservation projects,
to give the resort another chance to convince me.
Although it was
the breeding season for turtles, we didn’t see any.Apparently
the large groups of tourists who arrive at the beach to see the turtles laying
their eggs have driven the turtles away.A boat ride to
a marine park was also disappointing.The noise of the
boats means that the alligators (短吻鱷) are afraid to lie
in the sun.The tourists, expecting to see some action,
throw stones at the alligators in the water, in the hope of getting them to
move.
The trip to the “authentic”
local village was pleasant.The resort has turned the local homes into
picturesque cottages.However, they are so charming that
tourists are buying them, and the locals now live in small towns of badly built
houses in the poorest areas of town.
All in all, my
vacation didn’t meet any of the standards for ecotourism.But there
are many projects around the world where you can have a genuinely “green ”
experience.My next trip is to a mountain village, as a
paying guest in a local family’s home.
I will miss the
swimming pool and the golf, though.
1.What caused
the writer to choose this resort?
A.The
advertisement which looked attractive
B.The resort which was a 12-hour flight away
