It was the end of the school term and my son Tom had less than three months left before he would finish his six years at high school. During this time he had developed a love for basketball. Sadly, because of my work over the last twelve months, I had only been able to attend a few of his games; however, I was determined to get to his last game for the school term.

Tom’s team came out in the first 10 minutes with a burst of goals that saw them leading by just over 20 points at the end of the first half. The second half changed as the other team quickly played themselves back into the game. Tom’s team started to miss an increasing number of shots. It was at that point that the coach called his first time out.

The noise of the spectators (观众) became quiet as the coach spoke to them. He had the team standing in a half circle, but he squatted (蹲) down, looking up at them and fiving some very calm and clear instructions on what they needed to do in the last couple of minutes. As he stood up to allow the team to return to the court, I saw him give some further words of encouragement to all of them.

You could see that he knew that the team was fighting to save the game and that he needed to lift them up. By squatting down he placed himself in a position where he was talking up to them, rather than down or at them, and as the players went back onto the court his words of encouragement served to lift their energy and spirits.

Well, Tom’s team went on to win the final by 5 points. As I drove away I thought about what can happen to us all in our everyday life. One of my favourite quotes is about the half filled glass of water --- “Is it half full or is it half empty?” Like the coach, the answer to this quote all depends on how you look at things.

1.Why did the writer come to see his son play basketball?

A. Because his son would graduate from high school.

B. Because he felt sorry for never watching his son play.

C. Because it was a final his son played a key role in.

D. Because he had a strong interest in basketball himself.

2.By squatting down, the coach wanted to _____ .

A. talk about what the players were doing wrong

B. make the players feel better

C. prevent spectators from hearing what he said

D. show his anger at the bad performance of the players

3.What is the writer’s attitude towards the coach?

A. Negative.   B. Supportive.   C. Interested.   D. Unconcerned.

4.What can we infer from the passage?

A. A father should care about his son at school.

B. Playing hard is rewarded with a close match.

C. What a coach says has the most influence on players.

D. Looking at things positively is important in hard times.

It was August in the US，and the school year had just started，when one parent received an unexpected phone call.

Stacie Dunn had been called to Woodford County High School because her teenage daughter had been caught going against the dress rules. But the offense left Dunn shocked.

She arrived to find her daughter in a set of pretty ordinary clothes：a cardigan，a tank top and jeans. The trouble，administrators indicated，lay with her daughter's exposed collarbone (锁骨)．Bare shoulders and naked collarbones are illegal under Woodford County High School's dress rules. Students who break these rules can receive detention (the punishment of being kept at school for a time after school)—or after multiple violations (违纪)，be prevented from going to school entirely.

Dunn was very shocked and angry.“Parents are being called away from their important jobs，and students are missing important class time because they are showing their collarbones，” she wrote on the social media site Facebook，attaching a picture of her daughter in the offending clothes.“Something needs to change！”

Dress rules vary by school districts and are often decided by teachers and school administrators. Yoga pants and skinny jeans are banned. Certain dress rules also require knee­length pants and skirts.

Some school administrators argue they are simply supporting having a professional standard of dress to prepare their students for their future careers. But others have told students that their clothes present a “distraction” to others.

Certain schools have chosen to re­evaluate their dress rules，with input from parents and students. Even Woodford County High School—home of the “collarbone” ban—is reconsidering its policies this month. But，at_least_for_now，the_dress_rule_debate_is_far_from_over.

1.Why was Stacie Dunn called to Woodford County High School?

A. Her daughter went to school with bare shoulders.

B. Her daughter broke her collarbone.

C. Her daughter broke the dress rules of the school.

D. Her daughter received detention.

2.Under the dress rules，which of the following clothes are acceptable?

A. Skinny jeans B. Long skirts.

C. Yoga pants. D. Short pants.

A. She wasn't in favor of what the school did.

B. She turned to Facebook for help.

C. She bought a standard dress for her daughter.

D. She accused the school of wasting her time.

4.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph indicates that ________．

A. the debate between parents and students will never be over

B. few schools will take measures to change their policy

C. the problem of “clothes distractions” will last

D. the argument on what to wear and how to dress will continue

It was an extremely cold December night, and I had just settled into the living room sofa with a book when I heard a sharp knocking on the front door. The sound frightened me, mainly because it was 8:45 PM, quite dark outside, and I was alone. My husband had left two days before for a meeting.

I sat thinking for a moment about who could be at my door at that hour. I live on a really quiet street on the North Shore about a block off the main road. Hours can go by without a car or pedestrian(行人)passing in front of my home, a small house that's more than 100 years old.

Another moment passed. More sharp knocking. And then a face pressed against the square window in my front door, with which I made eye contact(接触). A woman's face. She was saying something, but I couldn't make it out.

I wish I could say that the first thing I wanted to do was to jump off the sofa to help this woman, but I hesitated(犹豫)because of all the bad stories about women who open their doors to strangers. What went through my mind was this: What if I open the door and she isn't alone but has an accomplice(同伙)hiding behind that big plant, and then they both come in and kill me?

Still, I opened the door. If I was killed, I had had a good life. She ran into my living room "Gracias. My phone---is dead." Speaking mostly Spanish, but intermixed with bits of English, the woman indicated(暗示)that she was lost, that her phone was dead and that she needed to call her sister who was supposed to have picked her up at the train station but hadn't. So she had decided to try and walk to her sister's but had gotten completely lost in the dark.

I offered to make her some tea while we waited for her phone to charge enough so that she could show me her sister's address.
