I stood in line to sign up for the middle school track(田径)team.
“Track isn't an sport.” the coach said. “Are you ready to practice hard every day?”
“Oh, yes. I love running.” I replied.
“Well, that's good,” the coach said.“ starts tomorrow after school.”
I was a little nervous about running with mostly older students, but I decided to face my fear.
“Welcome to the first day of practice.” the coach ordered everyone to the bottom of a sand hill. “Okay.”, he said, “This is the practice we'll do all season. You are going to run up and down the sand hill ten times as fast as you can. If you can't _ it, move to the si
de.” We all lined up, legs ready.
“Go!”the coach shouted, and we went.
I considered myself a bit small but strong. Running up that hill, however, was harder than I had imagined it would be. The sand kept falling down under my feet and it was hard to keep balance(平衡). I tried my feet in deeper, but people kept passing me shouting “Look out!” and “Move off to the side!”
“Don't cry,” I told myself as tears filled my eyes. I had to step aside. I went home from practice feeling like a(an) .
That night my dad noticed sad face and asked what was wrong. The story came pouring out. Dad listened quietly and then asked, “How do you want to run?”
“I really want to run,” I whispered through my tears.
“Then, run,” he said. “Everyone will respect you if you don't stop and give all you have. I know how strong-mined you can be when you set your mind to it.”
The next day the hill looked as hard as it had been the day before, but I had a new attitude and something to . “Go!” the coach shouted. Several older students ran by me as we started up the hill. I still fell in the sand, and I still wanted to leave every step of the way; but I kept slowly and progressively. When I reached the t
op, I gave a silent cheer and headed back down again. My dad was right. I won that day and became a part of the team. On my last time down, everyone clapped and cheered.

You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their hands. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are well trained. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks (花招,手段). Here are two sides to their work. They do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntmen’s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion ju
st at the right moment.
Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously hurt, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, flew over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. Although it is full of deadly dangers, this is no longer the work for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous actions. For nowadays there are stuntwomen too! (357)
1.Stuntmen are those who ______.
A. often dress up as famous actors
B. prefer to lead dangerous lives
C. often perform dangerous actions
D. often fight each other for their lives
2.What’s the meaning of the underlined sentences in the first paragraph?
A stuntman should _______.
A. crash bravely though a window made of sugar
B. do the well-planned activity at a very moment
C. open his parachute when he jumps down the cliff
D. have got a high degree of skill and training
3.Which could probably the best title of this passage?
A. Fights in the Movies.B. Crashing Out of the Window.
C. Exciting Films Today.D. Most Dangerous Work.

At present, more and more people are crazy about travelling. Why do people travel? “To see more of the world.” many people would say. But travelling abroad now means much more than that for the growing number of Chinese tourists. Of course it offers us good opportunities to meet people from other countries, learn about their culture and customs.
According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), more than 1 billion people travelled to another country in 2012. In 2012, Chinese people travelled abroad 30 percent more than in 2011. The prosperity (繁荣) of the tourism industry can also bring both our country and foreign countries great economic benefits (经济利益). Chinese people usually travel abroad in large tourist groups and visit several countries in one trip.
Chinese people don’t just travel for sightseeing. The China International Travel Service Company said that all their tour trips sold out a month before Christmas Day. Stores offered discounts (打折) during that time, so shopping in Europe and the United States is popular among Chinese travelers.
In December, China is going through a very cold winter. So many people like to go to some countries in Southeast Asia because the weather there is quite pleasant.
The improvement of living standards means more Chinese can travel abroad. But many of them don’t have a sense of public manners. A report by Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as the world’s second worst tourists.
If you want to change that bad name, remember to avoid the following: littering, spitting, snatching bus seats, line-jumping, taking off shoes in public, talking loudly and smoking in non-smoking areas. Besides, we should learn some necessary manners of foreign countries.
1.What are more and more people crazy about at present?
2.How many people traveled to another country in 2012?
3.Where is shopping popular among Chinese travelers?
4.Why do people like to go to some countries in Southeast Asia in winter?
5.What do Chinese people do when they travel abroad?
