The Day Lisa Lost
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not talking about those sportsmen today who only think about themselves. I’m talking about the true spirit of sports. In high school, students still learn important life lessons through sports. Here, sportsmen still work hard for the love of the game and for their team. Lisa Kincaid is one of them.
I first met Lisa on the volleyball playground. If anyone should feel proud, it is Lisa. She was not only one of the best volleyball players, but also became a legend (传奇人物) in running. She took part in sixty-four races and never lost.
However, she felt uneasy when people talked about her success. She would usually change the conversation to other people’s experiences. She often lent her shoes to someone who had forgotten hers, or wished the best for sportsmen from other teams.
Soon after, Lisa’s surprising “loss” in one race surprised me a lot. Lisa’s coach told her that he needed her to run the mile (一英里赛跑). She had never run that race before, but she agreed to do it for the team. Another runner, Jane, was also running. She had gotten special training for the mile and had a good record.
On the last lap, all the runners began to speed up. Then, suddenly Jane fell down. Lisa could have run past her to win, but she stopped. “Get up, Jane! You can do it!” she shouted. Just a few seconds later, Jane got up and went on the race. They got to the finishing line (终点线) almost at the same time. Jane finished first, while Lisa came second. It was Lisa’s first time not winning first place in her running life. People cheered for her act of sportsmanship.
After the race, Lisa said, “I didn’t want to win that way.” Later, Jane hugged Lisa and tried to give the medal (奖牌) to her. However, Lisa refused and said, “Keep it. I just did what I should do. You won the prize with your own effort.” On that day, Lisa missed a win, but she showed me another kind of success.
24. How did Lisa feel when people talked about her success
A. Proud. B. Surprised. C. Unconfident. D. Uncomfortable.
25. Why did Lisa “lose” the running race at last
A. Because she made a mistake at the end.
B. Because she stopped to encourage Jane.
C. Because she was not good at running the mile.
D. Because she was tired so she couldn’t run faster at the end.
26. According to the passage, the writer hopes to ________.
A. compare high school sportsmen with famous ones
B. explain how to get the first place in high school
C. show that losing a game is a bad thing for everyone
D. admire a runner who thinks sportsmanship is more important than winning
C
A friend of mine, in response to a conversation about the fairness and unfairness of life, asked me the question, “Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair ” Her question was a good one. It reminded me of something I was told as a youngster: Life isn’t fair. It’s a bummer. I don’t really like it and it is not easy for me to accept, but fully true.
One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others. We keep thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be. However, the truth is life is not and it won’t be fair.
One of the nice things about admitting (承认) this fact is that it stops us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with all we have. We know it’s not “life’s job” to make everything perfect. It’s our own difficulty to overcome. Admitting this fact also stops us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand. Everyone has their own strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions. And everyone has those times that they feel cheated or unfairly treated.
The fact that life isn’t fair doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. Instead, it suggests that we should. When we don’t recognize or admit that life isn’t fair, we tend to feel pity (可怜) for others and for ourselves. Pity is a self-defeating (自我挫败的) emotion that does nothing good for anyone. It only makes people feel worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life isn’t fair, however, we feel compassion for others and for ourselves. And compassion is a heartfelt emotion that passes loving-kindness to everyone it touches.
The next time you find yourself thinking about the unfair world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. You may be surprised that it can make you take helpful actions and push you out of self-pity.
27. The underlined word “bummer” in the first paragraph probably means ________.
A. good chance B. terrible fact C. necessary choice D. important lesson
28. According to the passage, who understands unfairness best
A. Lily stops feeling sorry and begins to do the very best she can.
B. Sam feels angry about unfairness and keeps talking about it.
C. Amy thinks life will be fair someday through her efforts.
D. Derek keeps thinking life is unfair and feels sad about it.
29. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. emotions like compassion make us feel worse
B. it’s our life’s job to make everything perfect
C. unfairness stops us from taking helpful actions
D. we should admit that life isn’t and it won’t be fair
30. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Why Is Life Unfair B. Should We Accept Life Is Unfair
C. Can We Make Life Fair D. What Does Fairness Mean
七、根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，第 44-46题每题2分，第47题4分）
The pumpkin in Tony Scott’s backyard weighs as much as a small car. He’s been taking care of it for months, feeding it fertilizer (肥料) and covering it with a blanket at night to keep it at a fine temperature. “I’ve never seen anything grow this fast,” said Scott, a farmer from New York. He has a pumpkin patch covering about 50 acres (英亩).
Every year, growers like Scott try their best to grow the biggest pumpkins. They take part in a weighing competition each year. Their pumpkins can weigh over 2,000 pounds (about 900 kilograms). This year, Scott’s pumpkin won third place, and he got $1,000 as a prize.
Pumpkins aren’t the only vegetables that can get large. Other members of the vegetable family like cucumbers and watermelons can get large, too. But only pumpkins are especially large and have got a place of honor at fall festivals and Halloween markets. There are some important things to know when growing large pumpkins. Firstly, a large pumpkin starts with the perfect seed (种子). Growers choose seeds from big pumpkins. They also test new seeds. Besides, the right water, nutrients (营养物) and care are also needed to think about if people want to grow large pumpkins.
Large pumpkins need lots of water in a day and make their own food from sunlight just like other plants do. Growers remove smaller pumpkins so all the water and nutrients get into a single fruit. “That helps make it especially big in a way you might not see in the wild,” said Alcea Borsuk, a plant scientist at the New York Botanical Garden. Scott’s pumpkin is also lighter in color because he covers it with a tarp (防水布) during the day, protecting it from sunlight.
After the all-important weighing competition, Scott shows the large pumpkin at many events and drives it around on a trailer (拖车). At last, he gives it to the museum. On the way to events, he often gets stopped by people. They ask him some questions. The first question they ask is, “Is it real ” Scott answers, “Where would you buy a man-made pumpkin so big ” He is proud of growing such large pumpkins, and he realizes hard work pays off in the end.
31. What does the pumpkin in Tony Scott’s backyard weigh
_______________________________________________________
32. What do people also need to think about if they want to grow large pumpkins
_______________________________________________________
33. Why is Scott’s pumpkin lighter in color
_______________________________________________________
34. What do you think of growing large pumpkins Why (At least 2 reasons)
