I was eight years old then. Looking______I remember the time in a baseball field passing the team that we had just______. We shook their hands and said, ”Good game!”

It is______to do that when you win! When you lose, you have a tendency(傾向) to slap (拍) the hand-instead of shaking it-and______the ground instead of the eyes. This is not only true for an eight-year-old; it is true for adults, too.

A few years ago, in a softball league, we lost 15 games! And we thought it was______. But during the “Good game” handshake after each______, I looked each player in the eyes and shook their hands. I couldn’t look my opponents (對手) in the eyes and congratulate them on a good______when I was eight. Somehow I took the loss as a______on my self-worth and felt my self-confidence had been slapped;______-I did what most eight-year-olds do and I slapped the opponents’ hands, not giving them the satisfaction of a shake. I was wrong to do this. I’m happy today as a(n)______ that I have learned this______: There is something to be said for losing well.

____it is a baseball game or an important examination, you can______a lot about a person by now they deal with defeat. The person who deals with defeat as an______blow is not allowing the event to define (定義) him, while someone who cannot______defeat is allowing the event to______his self-worth. In my opinion, when you______in something-though it may be______-look at your opponents in the eyes, and shake their hands in a______way as you say, “Good game!”______to allow the event to define your life.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項，選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Reading books can be a great way to pick up new vocabulary, see grammar in action and develop your understanding of a language. ____1____

For beginners, I would recommend starting with something short and simple. Avoid the classics, for they often use very old English words and can involve complex themes. Children’s books are a great place to start. ____2____ Dr Seuss writes his books in thyme and they are all very funny. Starting with something like this means you are more likely to finish the book and want to read more.

____3____ The book isn’t too long and if you’ve seen the film it may be easier to follow. If you like reading about historical events, Anne Holm’s I am David is a good read.

If you’re not quite ready to read a full book, why not try Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes? ____4____ Or, try a very short book like one from Roger Hargeaves’s Mr. Men and Little Miss series. Although they are intended for young children, they are a good way to pick up some more basic vocabulary.

My final piece of advice would be to read something that interests you. Look at the short summary of the book on the back cover and see if it looks like something that you would enjoy. Think about the type that is in your own language and find one of that type in English. ____5____

A. Dr Seuss’s books are guaranteed to make you laugh.

B. The key to success is choosing the right book for you.

C. Reading can bring you a lot of fun as well as knowledge.

D. How much you can understand a book depends on your vocabulary.

E. For more advanced learners, you could try the Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

F. This way, you’re more likely to enjoy reading, rather than see it as a headache.

G. This book contains lots of short stories, based on fairy tales, all written in thyme.

You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?

Jane Addams(1860—1935)

Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addans helped the poor and worked for peace.

Rachel Carson(1907—1964)

If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.

Sandra Day O’Connor(1930—present)

Rosa Parks(1913—2005)
