Today, we talk to an up-and-coming (有前途的) erhu player, Lee Hang, from Hong Kong. He’ll play with the Hong Kong Orchestra (管弦樂隊) next Sunday in a special concert by young Chinese musicians.
Interviewer: Thank you for talking to us, Lee. You must be very excited.
Lee: Yes, I am. This is the first time that I’ve played with such a famous orchestra and in front of so many people. They’re expecting about 4,000 people.
Interviewer: Does that scare you?
Lee: To be honest, yes. I haven’t slept much in the last few days. But my teacher told me I wouldn’t take it seriously enough if I wasn’t scared. That helped a lot.
Interviewer: Tell me about why you started playing the erhu.
Lee: My parents took me to piano and violin lessons. I quite liked them but they had to force me to go sometimes. One night, I saw a documentary about Yo Yo Ma, the famous Chinese American cello(大提琴) player. He talked about his love of Chinese instruments and we should follow our interests. I always enjoyed listening to Chinese instruments like the erhu and guzheng. That inspired me to learn the erhu. My parents were glad that I was playing something I actually liked.
Interviewer: What do your friends think of you playing a Chinese instrument?
Lee: Well, a lot of my classmates think playing things like the erhu isn’t cool. I don’t care. It makes me happy. I got a letter from Yo Yo, saying how much he admired me and that he’d like to meet me next time when he’s in Hong Kong. They thought that was pretty cool!
Interviewer: And what does the future hold for you?
Lee: I’d like to study music in a university in China then hopefully play in orchestras. My ambition is to bring the beautiful sound of the erhu to all the corners of the world.
Interviewer: Well, if anyone can, it’s you. Thanks for talking to me, Lee. Good luck.
Lee: Thanks.

I’m seventeen. I had worked as a box boy at a supermarket in Los Angeles. People came to the counter and you put things in their bags for them. And carried things to their cars. It was hard work.
While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I remembered his name and said,“Mr Castle, how are you?”we talked about this and that.As he left, he said," It was nice talking to you,Brett.”I helt great,he remembered me. Then I looked down at my name plate. Oh no. he didn’t remember me at all, he just resd the name plate. I wish I had put“Irving”down on my name plate. If he’d have said,“Oh yes, Irving,how could I forget you?”I’d have been ready for him. There’snothing personal here.
The manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of these was:you couldn’t accept tips(小費)。Okay, I’m outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people, the natural reaction(反應(yīng))is to take a quarter and give it to me. I’d say,‘‘I‘m sorry, I can’t,”they‘d get angry. When you give someone o tip, you’re sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in their hand and you expect them to say,”O(jiān)h,thanks a lot.”When you say‘‘I’m sorry,I can’t.” They'd get angry.When you give someone a tip,you're sort of being polite.You take a quarter and you put it in their hand and yo cxpect them to say, "oh , thanks a lot." When you say,"I'm sorry,I can't,"they feel a little put down. They say "No one will know.”And they put it in your pocket. You say, "I really can’t.”It gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically(身體上)to prevent him from tipping you. It was not in agreement with the store’s belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing and made the customer feel good. I just couldn’t understand the strangeness of some people’s ideas. One lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car,and drove away. I would have had to throw the quarter at her or eaten it or something.
I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I had the means and could afford to hate it and give it up.
1. what can be the best title for this text?
A. how hard life is for Box Boys
B. getting along with Customers
C. why I Gave up My Job
D. the Art of Taking Tips
2. From the second paragraph, we can infer that___.
A. the writer didn’t like the impersonal part of his job
B . with a name plate,people can easily start talking
C . Mr Castle mistook Irving for Brett
D. Irving was the writer’s real name
3. The box boy refused to accept tips because__
A. customers only gave small tips
B. some customers had strange ideas about tipping
C. the store forbade the box boys to take tips
D. he didn’t want to fight with the customers
4. The underlined phras“put down”in the third paragraph probably means__
A. misunderstood
B. dEfeated
C. hateful
D. hurt

Scientists have confirmed that the majority of overweight people who try to lose weight either by cutting calories or exercising will return to their former size.Fewer than 10 percent of the l2 million British people who go on a diet each year succeed in losing significant amounts of weight and most of those who do put it all back on again within a year.
The study of 25,000 people provides further evidence of the popularity of‘yo-yo dieting’where slimmers get into a cycle of losing weight and regaining it.The scientists,from the Medical Research Council’s National Survey of Health and Development,have concluded it is better to avoid getting fat in the first place.They followed 5,362 men and women from their birth in l946 and 20,000 from birth in l958,measuring their weight and blood pressure and assessing their lifestyles.The researchers found both groups began gaining weight in the 1980s and have steadily increased in size ever since.
Dr Rebecca Hardy,the council’s programme leader on body size,said:“0nce people become, overweight,they continue extremely upwards.They hardly ever go back down.A(印刷不清兩個單詞) weight but very few get back to normal。The best policy is to prevent people becoming overweight.For men weight goes up steadily through life。For women it starts slowly and accelerates in the mid-thirties.”
But the study's findings do not mean dieting is pointless,as eating less and taking more exercise can increase fitness and lower blood pressure.In 2009,a quarter of adults and l4 percent of children were obese(過度肥胖的),according to the Department of Health’s latest Health Survey for England.Although previous research has shown one in four Britons is trying to lose weight at any one time,it has been predicted that 60 percent of us will be obese by 2050,leading to even more cases of diabetes(糖尿病),heart disease and cancer.Experts said we are programmed to put on weight rather than lose it.Dieting can make this tendency worse as decreasing calorie intake causes the body to go into starvation mode and reduce the amount of energy it naturally expends,making it even harder to lose weight.Commenting on the study,Professor Nick Finer from London Hospital,said:“It is unlikely that man would have progressed with mechanisms to fight against obesity which has only become a problem in the last 30~40 years.For most of human history,storing fat would have been an advantage.”
47.According to Dr Rebecca Hardy,which of the following is TRUE?
A.It is easier for men to lose weight than women.
B.Once people lose weight,they never put on weight again.
C.Never to become fat is the best way of keeping a good shape.
D.The fact that fat people keep their weight upwards is unusual.
48.The author says “the study’s findings do not mean dieting is pointless” because .
A.the study lacks believable facts
B.obese people are confident in losing weight
C.dieting can really make a few people lose weight
D.dieting and sports help to keep people free from some diseases
49.From the last paragraph,we can learn that .
A.decreasing calorie intake makes it even harder to lose weight
B.the idea that people lose weight with mechanisms is practical
C.being overweight is a lasting problem through the human history
D.by 2050 more and more people will have got unfit because of losing weight
50.Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?
A.Which is better:cutting calories or exercisin97
B.Fat people can’t really keep the weight off
C.A new study on people’s health
D.How to go on a healthy diet
