I remember my mother as a strong woman. She came to America when she was 12—old enough to remember her language, she achieved scores and grades high enough to be admitted to Duke University. With a degree in computer science, she finally became the manager of a company in New York. My mother could give fluent speeches, say “wolves” correctly.

It was my mother who always stressed the importance of language. From the time I was born, I was read to. I would fall asleep to the sounds of my parents’ voices, whether it was my dad’s softly accented, or my mother’s clear English. The flow of language was unbroken, and whether in Chinese or English, the stream of communication flowed through our house.

One October morning in sixth grade, after my mother had left to catch the train to the city, I left the house for the bus stop. I was surprised when I saw our car, the door hanging open. As I drew closer, I saw my mother lying on the ground.

In the hospital, it was hard to believe that the lady who lay before me was my mom. My mother could not remember my name. As the leaves changed colors, it became clear that the stroke had created a wall between my mothers mind and mouth: her mind was not any less dear, but the words she spoke were not what she meant.

The battle my mother faced taught me the importance of language. Without it, identity does not exist; relationships cannot be formed; stories cannot be told; directions cannot be given, and knowing anything about anyone is impossible. Without language, communication cannot take place. Without language, one cannot express the beauty of a sunset or the kindness of a stranger. The world would pass us by in silence.

1.From where might the author’s mom come to America?

A. China B. England

C. Russia D. Canada

2.According to the last two paragraphs, the author’s mom was unable to .

A. think clearly B. express herself well

C. speak D. open her mouth.

3.The underlined word “stroke” in the 4th paragraph most probably refers to .

A. an accident B. a hit

C. an illness D. a robbery

4.This passage is mainly about .

A. a strong mother B. the importance of language

C. a family disaster D. the significance of teaching language

The 2016 Oscars, the 88th Academy Awards, once again thrilled people around the world, including the Chinese, who were excited about Leonardo DiCaprio winning the Best Actor Award.

But the annual carnival also put Chinese filmmakers in an awkward position, as no Chinese film makers ever pocketed a golden trophy(獎杯). The hard truth leaves people wondering when the nation, which is already the second largest film market, will earn a place in the well-known award ceremony’s spotlight.

There are good reasons to be optimistic about such an ambitious outlook.

First, China is one of the fastest growing film markets in the world, attracting abundant capital from home and abroad, which will attract more talented people to get into the industry. Latest statistics showed Chinese cinemas took a record of 6.87 billion yuan (about $ 1.05 billion) in ticket sales in February, with the monthly box office overtaking that of North America for the first time.

The achievement, which may be repeated in the future, has led to thinking that China’s annual box office could go on to surpass(超過) North America as soon as 2017. As capital rushes into the Chinese film industry, fierce competition is expected. The creativity and quality of homegrown movies, two outstanding shortcomings compared with Hollywood productions, will be improved.

Second, Chinese culture and stories have provided a rich source of inspiration for domestic(國內(nèi)的) productions. For example, the most popular animations in China are the Kung Fu Panda series and Monkey King films. Once they master cutting-edge film technology and improve narration(敘述), Chinese film makers could see their potential released. Also showing promise is the younger generation of filmmakers, who are born after 1970. With more professional and international training compared with their predecessors(前輩), such as Zhang Yimou, they are equipped to make breakthroughs.

Young directors, who often travel to the United States and Europe for seminars and award ceremonies, are also more familiar with Hollywood productions. This being said, no one can predict the exact year when a homegrown film will surprise the world greatly. Patience is gold for domestic filmmakers.

1.Why do Chinese filmmakers feel awkward, according to the passage?

A. Because China has never earned any film award in the world.

B. Because Leonardo DiCaprio won the Best Actor award of the Oscar in 2016.

C. Because Chinese film makers have never won a golden trophy of the Oscar.

D. Because Chinese wonder when China will be the largest film market in the world.

2.In the author’s opinion, what are the reasons for Chinese filmmakers to win an Oscar in the future?

① China can raise capital from home and abroad.

② The creativity and quality of Chinese movies have been improved.

③ Film makers can find a rich source of inspiration from Chinese culture and stories.

④ The younger film makers, receiving international training, are more professional.

A. ①②③ B. ②③④

C. ①②④ D. ①③④

3.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. The record in monthly ticket sales has overtaken that of North America in the past few months.

B. Kung Fu Panda series and Monkey King films are the most popular animations in China now.

C. Zhang Yimou, who is familiar with Hollywood production, will win an award at Oscar.

D. A Chinese film is certain to surprise the world greatly in the Oscar of 2017.

4.What is the implied meaning of the underlined sentence, according to the passage?

A. Chinese filmmakers still have a long way to go.

B. Oscar awards can provide gold chances for domestic filmmakers.

C. Hollywood is a great place for filmmakers to achieve their dreams.

D. It is certain that young directors are in the gold periods of filmmaking.

The First Try

Every girl dreams and Li Xie is no exception. She has read dozens of books on how to be a ballerina(芭蕾舞女演員). “Swan Lake” is her favorite. She hopes one day her dream will come true. She has taken ballet lessons and all her teachers confirm she is a good student.

One day she saw an advertisement that a famous ballerina group will be performing in her hometown. "I must meet up with the leader of the group and show him my skills," she whispered to herself. She dressed herself and hid in the dressing room. To her luck the leader entered and she timidly (膽怯地) knocked at the door. She bravely approached him and handed him a bunch of red roses. The thorns (刺) hurt her hand but she did not care about the pain. The leader observed her action as she told him her dream. "Alright, you dance and I will give you my conclusion."

She angrily shot back, "You've ruined my life! 一 Then she got a further shock, "

Did you know that sixty percent of your body weight is water？However，a loss of only two percent of this water through dehydration(脫水) during exercise can significantly affect your performance. The more you sweat，the more your exercise performance declines，unless you drink enough to replace your loss of fluids.

When you lose too much water，you can overheat quite easily，especially in a warm environment. But this is not the only problem you may be faced with. Dehydration leads to your heart pumping much faster，which means exercise becomes more difficult and requires more effort. Despite these problems，however，many of us simply do not take enough fluids in when we head for the gym or set out on a run.

So why is this? How do we manage to lose so much water without simply drinking more to replace it？Well，it is easier than you think. When we are at rest，we quickly become aware that we are thirsty and will put that right by having a drink. When we exercise，on the other hand，our thirst mechanism(結(jié)構(gòu)) does not work as effectively，so we don't notice early enough that we are actually thirsty. In fact，we only start to feel thirsty when we have already lost around two percent of our body weight.

Another problem is that，the more dehydrated we become during exercise，the more difficult it is to prevent further dehydration—because our stomachs become intolerant to fluids and we do not absorb water properly，just when we need it most.

The key thing about fluids and exercise is to manage your intake properly—regular small amounts are better，and some should be drunk before the period of exercise begins. You also need to match your intake to the sort of exercise you are doing. For instance，for one hour of exercise，such as taking part in a 10 km run，you need to drink about two extra liters of water. For longer periods of exercise，sports drinks are recommended.

1.We know from the text that during exercise，dehydration________.

A. can be easily avoided

B. will lead to poor performance

C. can cause many health problems

D. will be controlled whenever we drink again

2.Why do people suffer from dehydration easily during exercise?

A. Their thirst mechanism stops working.

B. Their focus is on the exercise.

C. Their thirst response is slow.

D. Their stomachs are full.

3.When exercising，you are advised to________.

A. have regular breaks

B. drink water accordingly

C. drink sports water in advance

D. have at least two liters of water

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. Keep fit

B. Say no to sports!

C. Time to get drinking!

D. Ways to avoid dehydration
