試題分析:這篇短文主要介紹了網(wǎng)球的起源和發(fā)展。文章從網(wǎng)球的名字來源說起,然后介紹網(wǎng)球在英國的發(fā)展,最后如何在美國及全球深受歡迎。

1.句意:第一次比賽開始是在法國。根據(jù)上下文可知這是發(fā)生在過去的事情,故用過去式began。

2.句意:比賽的名字來自法語的單詞"tennez",故用word。

3.句意:當(dāng)英國人在800年前看比賽時(shí)他們把這種比賽成為網(wǎng)球。這里是短語call sth sth把……稱為什么。故用called。

4.句意:網(wǎng)球場(chǎng)被建在每個(gè)公園每一個(gè)城市就像今天一樣。這里Tennis courts與build之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系,故用過去分詞built.

5.句意:起初他們?yōu)榱藰s譽(yù)而戰(zhàn)。For honor為了榮譽(yù),故用honor榮譽(yù)。

6.句意:三百年前這種比賽被禁止來阻止作弊。stop sth阻止某事。故用stop。

7.句意:比賽也消失了。根據(jù)上文Three hundred years ago可知這里應(yīng)該用過去式,故用disappeared。

8.句意:他們知道應(yīng)該為了比賽應(yīng)該做些事情。這里缺少do的賓語,所以用what。

9.句意:網(wǎng)球在美國變得很流行。become是系動(dòng)詞,所以后面用形容詞,故用popular。

10.句意:現(xiàn)在它成為世界上最令人高興的比賽之一。因?yàn)檫@里修飾game,故用exciting。

考點(diǎn):科普類短文。

Have successful people ever felt sad? Do they have any “secrets” to success? The answers to these questions can be found in US president Barack Obama’s “back to school” speech. Here is an excerpt(摘錄) from his speech.

I know that sometimes, you get the sense that you can be rich and successful without any hard work—that your ticket to success is through pop music or basketball or being a TV star, when chances are, you’re not going to be any of those things.

But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject you study. Not all the homework will seem rather important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed at everything the first time you try.

That’s OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who’ve had the most failures (the opposite of success). JK Rowling’s first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots (投籃) during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

These people succeeded because they understand that you can’t let your failures beat you—you have to let them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.

No one’s born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work.

Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to tell when you don’t know something, and to learn something new.

And even when you’re struggling(奮斗), even when you’re discouraged (泄氣), and you feel other people have given up on you—don’t ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.

1.Why does Barack Obama mention (提到) JK Rowling and Michael Jordan in the third paragraph?

A. To compare these two famous persons.

B. To explain that the more failures he has, the more successful he is.

C. If you want to be successful, you should fail first.

D. To show that failure is the mother of success.

2.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. No one can be successful without working hard.

B. Failure can be good if you treat it in a right way.

C. Those who believe in themselves shouldn’t ask others for help.

D. One should try his best to make his dream come true.

3.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined sentence?

A. One shouldn’t ask questions because it is a sign of strength.

B. One should believe in himself though he will face much difficulty.

C. One doesn’t have to work hard when he has failed several times.

D. One doesn’t have to ask for help because it is a sign of weakness.

Peter Qwen has been making wigs (假發(fā))since the 1980s . He has made wigs for the stars of more than seventy movies ,including Tom Hanks in Philadelphia, Johnny Depp in Sleepy Hollow and Nicole Kidman in The Others. One of his biggest jobs so far has designed the hair and makeup for the three Lord o f the Ring movies . He had just six weeks to design and make more than a hundred wigs, each one a different style, color, shape and length.

    The hair and makeup in a movie are just as important as the costumes or the sets. Over the years, Peter has made actors look older, younger, healthy and sick. For one movie he even made a female actor look like a man! "What people don't realize about wigs is that we are not always making people more beautiful," he says. "Often we are covering up beauty and making them look ordinary."

    All Peter's wigs are handmade using human hair, so they look as real as possible. This also makes them very expensive -between US $ 4,500 and US $12,500 each! He knows he's done a good job when people don't realize the star of the movie is wearing a wig. So he was pleased when one newspaper said that Nicole Kidman had dyed her hair dark brown for a movie. "It was a wig and no one knew that9" he said.

A. How Peter Qwen's wigs change people

B. Peter Qwen: A wigmaker to the stars

C. Peter Qwen: Making real and expensive wigs

D. Peter Qwen's wigs are important in a movie

2.What special feature about wigs does Peter mention?

A. They can make people more beautiful.

B. They can change people's hair styles.

C. They can cover up beauty and make people look ordinary.

D. They can make people look younger.

3.Why are Peter's wigs so expensive?

A. They are made in foreign countries.

B. Peter makes the best wigs.

C. They are only made for rich film makers.

D. They are handmade using human hair.

4.Which statement is NOT true about Peter?

A. Peter Owen has made wigs for lots of movies.

B. Designing and making the wigs for The Lord of the Rings was a huge job.

C. Peter can make actors look quite different from their real looks.
