“Now,”Mrs Virginia DeView said, smiling,“we are going to discover our professions.”The class seemed to be greatly surprised. Our professions? We were only 13 and 14 years old! The teacher must be 1 .“Yes, you will all be searching for your future 2 . Each of you will have to 3 . Someone in your field, plus give an oral report.”
Each day in her class, Virginia De View reminded us about this. Finally, I picked print journalism. This 4 I had to go to interview a true-blue newspaper reporter. I was extremely nervous. I sat down in front of him 5 able to speak. He looked at me and said,“Did you bring a pencil or pen?”
I shook my head.
“How about some 6 ?”

Finally, I thought he realized I was 7 , and I got my first big tip as a 8 .“Never, never go anywhere without a pen and paper. You never know what you'll run into.”After a few days, I gave my oral report totally from 9 in class. I got an A on the entire project.

They just reminded me how competitive the field was and 12 all my life I had run away from competition. This was true. But journalism did something to me; it was in my blood. 13 gave me the freedom to go up to total strangers and ask what was 14 .
For the past 12 years, I've had the most satisfying reporting career, 15 stories from murders to airplanes crashes and 16 choosing my strongest area. 17 I went to pick up my phone one day, an incredible wave of memories hit me and I realized that had it not been 18 Virginia DeView, I would not be sitting at that desk.

Grace Kane hangs onto an Olympic dream of clinging to a granite (花崗巖) wall by her fingertips 70 feet from the ground. The fearless girl is only 10, but already has scaled great heights in the sport of rock climbing.
Last week, Kane won a bronze in the 11andyounger sport class at the USA Climbing Youth National Championships in Atlanta. She was the only competitor of the 31 there with no climbing coach or topflight facilities in which to train. Climbing will become an exhibition at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics in Brazil. The hope of enthusiasts is that the sport will gain full status in 2020.“I’m already training for that,” said Kane. “Climbing is my passion, my love, and I want to make something of it.”
Her dad took her to climb rocks on her fourth birthday for the first time and today he can’t keep up with her, “It’s the freedom to let loose,” she said. “When I’m up there, I’m so focused and don’t hear anything. I always feel comforted knowing people are supporting me.”
The bronze in Atlanta qualified Kane for the USA team and November’s International Championships in Ecuador. That’s a trip she might have to miss because it’s too expensive.
Kane held a backyard music concert---she played the guitar and the piano and wrote inspirational songs---and raised $600 for her $1,500 trip to Atlanta. She’s also been sponsored by a shoe company, but must rely heavily on donations from family and friends for travel expenses.
Her mom Heather Kane said the family has chosen “to do whatever we need to help her achieve her goals”. One of Grace’s biggest challenges is finding balance in her life. There’s school, her music and church to fit around climbing.
“Climbing is going to mean sacrificing things other kids might pursue,” Grace said. “But it doesn’t bother me. It’s like playing the piano; you can’t take a break or you’ll lose your touch.”
【小題1】What would be the best title of the passage?
| A．Rock climbing gains popularity |
| B．Grace Kane likes challenges |
| C．A young climber follows her dream |
| D．An amazing victory for a young rock climber |
| A．is not an exhibition at the Olympics now |
| B．is an official event at the Olympics now |
| C．is not open to children |
| D．will gain full status in 2020 |
| A．She is only interested in rock climbing. |
| B．She is a girl with many talents. |
| C．Rock climbing has affected her study. |
| D．She has won gold medals in several matches. |
| A．find a capable coach for her |
| B．get qualified for the USA team |
| C．raise enough money for International competitions |
| D．keep balance between rock climbing and other activities |

注意：每個空格只填一個單詞。
From its energetic samba music to its die-hard soccer fans, Brazil has long been known as a nation of passion. But the country also offers amazing scenery and rich culture. Since Brazilian Culture Month is being held in a tour exhibition in China in September, let’s take the opportunity to explore this wonderful place.
Brazil is the largest and most populous country in South America. The Amazon in its north is the world’s largest jungle. The country’s wilderness is home to a variety of plants and animals. The great Iguazu Falls are the pearls of this natural paradise (天堂).
But the great landscape is not the only thing Brazilians take pride in. The colors green and yellow might make most people think of Brazil’s soccer team rather than the national flag. Soccer is more than sport; it’s a way of life. The World Cup brings Brazilians together. Interestingly, the general elections in Brazil are usually held during the same year as the World Cup Political parties try to take advantage of the patriotic(愛國的) enthusiasm(熱情) created by soccer to inspire enthusiasm for politics.
For the next couple of years, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil’s second largest city, will grab the world’s attention. It will host the World Cup in 2014 and two years later, the Olympics. For the first time in their 120 years, the Olympic Games will be held in South America when they come to Brazil.
Of course, no Brazilian celebration is complete without the samba. The most traditional dance of the country stands out every February at the Rio Carnival, which is one of the world’s biggest.
“Brazil has left its second-class nation status,” former Brazilian President said in 2009 after Rio was awarded the 2016 Olympics. “Brazil’s growing economy, supported by oil and aircraft factories, has made it more than a nation of samba and the beaches and the emotional soul of soccer.”

BEIJING (Associated Press 美聯(lián)社) —China has a growing middle class, a tradition of expecting education and 21 million new babies every year. Selling educational toys should be easy.
While China may be the world’s biggest toy-maker, many of the best are exported. Department stores here do not have enough high quality toys. It is said that the demand for educational toys is low.
A US company, BabyCare, is trying to change that with a new way to sell toys in China.
BabyCare works basically together with doctors in Beijing hospitals. People who join the company’s "mother club" can get lectures and newsletters on baby and child development at no extra cost, if they agree to spend 18 dollars a month on the company’s educational toys and child-care books.
"We want to build a seven-year relationship with those people," said Matthew J. Estes, BabyCare’s president. "It starts during pregnancy, when the anxiety and needs are highest." BabyCare works on a one-to-one basis. Doctors, nurses, and teachers paid by BabyCare advise parents, explain toys that a re de signed for children at each stage of development to age six.
BabyCare opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo. It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years.
It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children’s education and health that no other companies are in.
