1、A Competitive Sport
Cheerleading
Over th e years, cheerleading has taken two primary forms: game-time cheerleading and competitive
cheerleading. Game-time cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which
should not be considered a sport. However, competitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment. It is
really a competitive sport.
Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. The majority of the teams require a certain level of
tumbling (翻腾运动) ability. It’s a very common thing for gymnasts, so it’s easy for them to go into competitive
cheerleading. Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps,
tumbling, and overall energy. They also perform lifts and throws. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air,
held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates.
Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared. It
is awarded points for technique, creativity and sharpness. Usually the more difficult the action is, the better the
score is. That’s why cheerleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance.
Besides, there is also a strict rule of time. The whole performance has to be completed in less than three
minutes and fifteen seconds, during which the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Any
performance beyond the limit of time is invalid.
Another reason for the fact that competitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more
reported injuries. According to some research, competitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports
injuries to women. Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport, partially because
cheerleaders don’t use protective equipment. Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the
arms of the teammates, which may easily cause injuries. Generally, these injuries affect all areas of the body,
including wrists, shoulders, ankles, head, and neck.
There can be no doubt that competitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills. Hopefully, it will
appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more
accepted sports. It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can
bring the score of the entire team down. So without working together to achieve the goal, first place is out of reach.
1.What is the main purpose of competitive cheerleading?
A.To compare skills of participants.
B.To make the audience feel amused.
C.To attract more people to watch events.
D.To cheer up the competitors on the court.
2.The underlined word “integrate” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”.
A.examine
bine
C.identify
D.replace
3.We can learn from the passage that competitive cheerleading ______.
cks necessary guidelines to follow
B.enjoys greater popularity than other sports
C.requires more designed actions than gymnastics
D.has a relatively high rate of damage to the body
4.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: Conclusion

2、 Black Friday is just a week away, an annual tradition in which holiday shoppers rush to the supermarkets and
malls. Most shoppers pack stores to buy things at a discount. For some, however, shopping is less of a pastime and
more of an addiction. These people have compulsive(强迫性的) shopping disorder, a condition filled with debt and
regret.
While it's true that many lack money and credit management skills, what these shoppers are often looking for is
a “buy high”,an emotional rush to put themselves in a better mood, found San Francisco State University
researchers in 2013. These types of shoppers often hold materialistic values. When under stress, materialistic
shoppers are more likely to shop compulsively.
Rather than providing any social or emotional outlet(发泄出口 ),the extreme stress-induced purchases only
increase anxiety and lower well-being, and materialistic shoppers already tend to have lower self-esteem than others
to begin with.
In fact, it’s exactly at low moments that materialistic shoppers are most likely to shop for expensive items, and
they're more likely to make those purchases on credit. This of course can create a vicious cycle, in which a
materialistic shoppers with low self-esteem buys a luxury item he or she cannot afford in an effort to improve sense
of self. The financial burden can cause stress and strain relationships over the issue of money, further affecting the
mood of the shopper and leading to more spending to try to regain a sense of self-worth.

1、 Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some
countries.
In Brazil
Brazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the
person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to
be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned.But to be safe, be on time. Meals can
stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late
afternoon. Brazilians are social, preferring face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.
In Singapore
Singaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business

1、 Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查)by the
National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they
have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired
during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.
How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest; most of them sleep about 18 hours
a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National
Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost
half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.

I grew up in a family that ate dinner together every evening. Although my parents enjoyed wine,
they rarely drank during the week and always in moderation (节制). As for myself, I wasn't
interested in alcoholic drinks and neither were my high school friends.
So when I arrived on campus for my first year of university life, I was a bit shocked.
Many different events had been organized for the freshmen, but they all had one thing in common —
alcohol, and plenty of it. Not wanting to be left out, I joined a few of the events. But I always
returned home early, feeling disappointed. Your personality, interests and experiences didn't matter at
all, only how many alcoholic drinks you could absorb before passing out (喝醉). It seemed
shallow to me. I wanted to get to know my new coursemates, not how fast they could down a pint of

In Britain and other countries, young people sometimes take a“gap
year”, a year off between high school and college. This idea never gained a
big following in America. Recent news reports have suggested that interest
may be growing, though there are no official numbers.
Charles Deacon, Dean of Admissions at Georgetown University in
Washington, D. C. estimates that in the current first-year class of 1, 600
students, only about 25 decided to take a year off. He says this number has
not changed much over the years.
Mr Deacon says the most common reason for taking a “gap year” is to
have a chance to travel, but he says international students may take a“gap
year”to meet requirements at home for military duty.
Some high school graduates see a year off as a chance to recover
after twelve years of required education, but it can also give students a

1、 Eight years before his death in 1896, Alfred Nobel was surprised to read an obituary(讣告) in the local
newspaper. This was a strange obituary, for it told Alfred Nobel, the man who was reading it, that he was dead. The
newspaper had confused Alfred with his brother, Ludwig, who had recently died.
Nobel was shocked to read that he had passed away,and he was even more annoyed by the title of the obituary :
The Merchant of Death Is Dead. Alfred was a very rich and successful armaments manufacturer(武器制造商).
This incident got him thinking about his reputation. What would people think of him after his real death? Would
they really say “That was a man who profited from killing”? It was this thought that led him to leave his money一a
huge amount of it—for the founding of the famous Nobel Prizes. His aim was for his money to be used to support

1、 Eleven-year-old Angela was stricken with a terrible disease. She was unable to walk and she moved only in other
ways. The doctors thought she'd spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair, for few, if any, were able to come back to
normal after getting this disease. The little girl was brave. There, lying in her hospital bed, she would promise to anyone
who'd listen that she was going to be walking again someday.
She was moved to a special hospital. Many ways were used to treat her disease. The doctors there were moved by her
undefeatable spirit. They taught her about imagining seeing herself walking. If it would do nothing else, it would at least
give her hope and something positive (积极的) to do in the long waking hours in her bed. Angela would work as hard as
possible in exercise period. But she worked just as hard lying there faithfully imagining herself moving!

1、 More students than ever before are taking a gap year(间隔年) before going to university.
It used to be the “year off” between school and university. The gap—year phenomenon
originated（起源） with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance
exams in November and the start of the next academic year。
This year， 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions
have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance
provided by the University and College Admissions Service （UCAS）。
That is a record 14。7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony
Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education。
“Students who take a well—planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with， and
