閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D) 中，選出最隹選項(xiàng)。

                                          A

                               

                Many American high schoolers participate in a wide variety of extra-curricular(課外的)activities such as sports and clubs. Personally,I enjoy playing tennis for my school's varsity team(校隊(duì)) .Throughout the past decade,my high school,South,has been consistently ranked as one of the top teams in New Jersey.

                In my first year of high school,I was espe-cially nervous for tryouts(選拔賽) .The night before,I still remember lying in bed,feeling both anxiety and excitement. When I got to my school's courts,I saw a crowd of unfamiliar faces. Coach Crawbuck stressed how the team would be set up I through challenge matches. Afterwards,the coach ：paired us together to begin playing games. Unlike many other sports,tennis relies only on the individual player's abilify. Because of this,I had ：to make sure that all my points were not only consistent but strategic(有戰(zhàn)略的) as well.

                At the beginning,I was ranked number 19 on the team. The second year,I improved greatly,ranking number 10. One day,I visited NJ.com to even find an introduction to myself!It was exciting to see that I was listed as a part of the tennis community.

                Soon,school started again,and our team began to play matches against other schools. Sometimes,it was stressful knowing that our team s undefeated record could not be broken. Once,my partner Alyssa and I played a five-hour match against South Brunswick simply so that our team could keep this standing. Needless to say,it was very exhausting!

                The term “tennis team” doesn't sound right

since the sport is singular in its nature. However,through my experiences with tennis,I have gotten to meet so many amazing players who have become my close friends. Not only does the team bond though our time on the courts,but also through the events the captains organize. Overall,playing tennis has become second nature for me and I don't know where I would be without it.

A篇(學(xué)校生活)

本文是記敘文。文章主要講述了作者參加學(xué)校網(wǎng)球校隊(duì)的故事。

21. C. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段中的Iwas especially nervous for tryouts 和 feeling both anxiety and excitement 可知，在選拔賽之前，作者既緊張又興奮。

22. A. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段中的Unlike many other sports,tennis relies only on the individual player's ability 可知，和其他的體育運(yùn)動(dòng)不一樣，網(wǎng)球僅決定于球員的個(gè)人能力。

23. C. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第二段中的 our team,s undefeated record could not be broken so that our team could keep this standing可知，作者和她的隊(duì)員經(jīng)過(guò)五小時(shí)的奮戰(zhàn)，就是為了能讓她們的球隊(duì)保持以前的地位。

24. B. 觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。由最后一段中的... meet so many amazing players who have become my close friends 和 playing tennis has become second nature ... where I would be without it可知，作者通過(guò)網(wǎng)球隊(duì)結(jié)識(shí)了很多好朋友，而且網(wǎng)球已經(jīng)成為她生活中的一部分。由此可知，作者對(duì)網(wǎng)球隊(duì)有一種感激情懷。
