AThere are a number of sports writers who are now widely regarded as some of the best sports journalists of our time. Here are five of the most well-known sports writers.Rick Reilly of Sports IllustratedRick Reilly became famous as the back page columnist (专栏作家) for Sports Illustrated magazine. Then he moved to ESPN in 2008 and began working as a columnist for their website —. Now he has his own show with ESPN, and he also contributes articles to ABC sports.Bob Ryan of The Boston GlobeBob Ryan rose through the ranks thanks to his skill and knowledge about basketball. He very soon became known as a guru of the sport, writing an impressively large number of articles about The Boston Celtics — a National Basketball Association (NBA) team based in Boston, Massachusetts.John Feinstein of The Washington PostJohn Feinstein is primarily a columnist with The Washington Post but during his long career he has published two best-selling sports books A Good Walk Spoiled and A Season on the Brink. He is a regular with the Golf Channel and has a very popular blog called Feinstein on the Brink.Joaquin Henson of The Philippine StarJoaquin Henson started out his sports journalism career in 1973 and became popular through his column Sporting Chance, which has been published in The Philippine Star since the 80’s. He has given a number of catchy nicknames to some of the most famous sporting stars of our time.William Rhoden of The New York TimesApart from being a columnist with The New York Times since the 80’s, William Rhoden is a respected sports journalist known for his two books Forty Million Dollar Slaves and Third and a Mile. Both books deal with the problems that face black athletes in the field of sport.21. Before working for ESPN, Rick Reilly _____.A. was a regular with the Golf ChannelB. started his column Sporting ChanceC. wrote articles for Sports IllustratedD. worked as a sports talk show host22. The underlined part “a guru” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “_____”.A. an expertB. a supporterC. an organizerD. a volunteer23.

What would be the best title for the text?A. Useful tips for a sports journalistB. How to be a newspaper columnistC. Newspapers that influence us a lotD. Famous and popular sports writersBWolves use many different types of communication. One way they communicate is through sound. The howl (嗥叫) is a well-known method wolves use to communicate with each other. While howling, wolves often chang e their voices a lot. As a result, people are sometimes “fooled” into believing that there are more wolves than there really are. People have often guessed, after listening to howls, that a pack (群) of wolves contained up to 20 individuals, when there were only 3 or 4. Some people have thought that wolves do that on purpose, in order to fool neighboring packs into believing that there are more animals present than there really are. However, many naturalists and wolf biologists do not accept that idea.Wolves seem to howl for many reasons. They often howl before they go on a hunt, possibly to get the pack together, and they often begin to howl after a successful hunt. That suggests that howling serves to bring a pack together, since wolves often become separated from each other during a hunt. They do not, however, howl while they are hunting. In addition, a wolf may howl alone if it is having trouble locating its pack. Surprisingly, pack members seem to recognize each other’s voices, since individual wolves o ften have their own way of howling. Wolves will also howl in sadness after the death of their mates.Wolf packs may also howl to communicate with other packs, as two different wolf packs will sometimes answer each other’s howls. Wolves will also often answ er the calls of humans who are pretending to howl like wolves. Wolves howl less often during May and June than they do during the rest of the year. This may be because that is the time that packs are most likely to have young pups (幼崽) present. It is possible that wolf packs who have young pups present often keep silent so they do not attract attention to their location, since pups can be easily hurt by predators (捕食性动物) like bears.25. People argued about _____.A. how wolves howlB. why wolves howlC. when wolves howlD. where wolves howl26. Wolves howl in order to _____.A. fool peopleB. fool neighboring packsC. convey different messagesD. make the pack sound stronger27. Wolves don’t howl often in early summer because _____.A. they d on’t howl when it’s hotB. they have to save their energyC. they don’t have enough food to eatD. they need to protect the young ones28. We can learn from the text that _____.A. wolves don’t answer humans’ callsB. a wolf pack consists of about 20 wolvesC. wolves always stay together when huntingD. different wolves have different ways of howlingCIn our daily life, it is necessary to make small talk in certain situations. It helps to fill time between people when it is completely quiet. You may not feel like talking with someone else or you are very shy at the beginning, but it is sometimes thought to be rude to say nothing.People use small talk almost every day. It usually takes place when you meet someone you don’t know at all or someone you’re n ot familiar with. For example, waitresses and hairdressers often make small talk with their customers. If you happen to be outside when the mailman comes to your door, you might make small talk with him, too.Most often, small talk happens in places where people are waiting for something. For example, you might talk with another person who is waiting for the bus to arrive. People also make small talk in a doctor’s waiting room, or when they are waiting in a line to buy something. At the office, people make small talk in elevators or lunchrooms, especially if there is a line-up. Mingling is often required among people who don’t know each other very well at a party. In other words, they are expected to walk around and talk with others.The most common time for small talk to happen is the first time you see or meet someone on a given day. For example, if you see a co-worker in the lounge you might say hello and discuss the sports or weather. However, the next time you see each other you might just smile and say nothing. If there is very little noise, it might be the right time to start a pleasant conversation. If someone is reading a book at the bus stop, it is probably not a good idea to start a conversation. Another good time to make small talk is during a break in a meeting when there is nothing important going on. However, it is important to recognize the signal when the other person wants the conversation to stop.29. Small talk happens most probably when _____.A. you’re having your hair cutB. you’re havi ng a family mealC. you’re having a meetingD. you’re reading on a bus30. The underlined word “Mingling” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “_____”.A. HonestyB. PolitenessC. ConversationD. Understanding31. The author develops the last paragraph mainly by _____.A. giving explanationsB. providing examplesC. telling storiesD. discussing questions32. We can learn from the text that small talk _____.A. can help to break the silenceB. won’t happen among strangersC. is often thought to be unnecessaryD. always makes people uncomfortableDIf Harry Potter was one of audience’stop choices in recent cinematic history, itsactress, Emma Watson, will never beforgotten. She stars in Sofia Coppola’s latestwork, The Bling Ring, which became a bigevent in the Cannes film festival.Before the premiere (首映), Watson said:“Harry Potter feels like such a long time ago,but obviously it’s still very present, beingplayed in people’s living rooms. I’m nottrying to run awa y from it, but it’s that I’vehad such an amazing three or four years totransform (转变) into new roles and work with new creative people.”Coppola’s film is based on the true story of a group of Los Angeles teenagers, who stole luxury goods (奢侈品) from the houses of the rich and famous in order to copy their lifestyles. Watson said: “It wasn’t so much about the stealing. They wanted to pretend for two hours that they were Paris Hilton and to live that lifestyle for real.”Among the thieves’ targets was Hilto n. Between October 2008 and November 2009, they stole more than £3 million worth of items. They also showed off the items on Facebook.Making the actors / actresses popular might be regarded as the final victory for the film, but according to Coppola, that was far from her purpose. “I changed the names of the characters because I didn’t want to make them more famous,” she said, adding that she was “not too concerned with the reactions” of the people on whom the story is based.33. The Bling Ring is a film that is _____.A. Emma Watson’s best known filmB. more famous than Harry PotterC. the best choice for teenagersD. directed by Sofia Coppola34. The characters in The Bling Ring steal from the rich or famous because _____.A. they hate the rich or famousB. they want to be famous on FacebookC. they want to pretend to be rich or famousD. they want to help the poor with the money35.
