"Bill, you never miss!"Joe said admiringly. "Unless I'm in a real game, "Bill complained. "Then I miss all the time. " Joe knew that Bill was right. Bill performed much better when he was having fun with Joe in the schoolyard than he did when he was playing for the school team in front of a large crowd. " Maybe you just need to practice more, "Joe suggested. "But I practice all the time with you!"Bill said. He shook his head. " I just can't play well when people are watching me. " "You play well when I'm watching, " Joe pointed out. "That's because I've known you since we were five years old, "Bill said with a smile. " I'm just not comfortable playing when other people are around. " Joe nodded and understood, but he also had an idea.
The next day Joe and Bill met in the schoolyard again to practice. After a few minutes, Joe excused himself. " Practice without me, "Joe said to his friend. "I'll be back in a minute. "
Joe hurried through the school building, gathering together whomever he could find-two students, a math teacher, two secretaries, and a coach. When Joe explained why he needed them, everyone was happy to help. Joe reminded(提醒)the group to stay quiet as they all went toward the school's basketball court. As Joe had hoped, Bill was still practicing basketball. He made five baskets in a row without noticing the silent people standing behind him.
"Hey, Bill" Joe called out finally. Bill turned. A look of surprise came over his face. "I just wanted to show you that you could play well with people watching you," Joe said. "Now you'll have nothing to worry about for the next game!"

高一英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
This weekend a marathon took place in Salzburg, the city where I’m living. I admired the runners who ran 42.2 kilometers if they finished the course. I’ve never run for more than half an hour, so I’m amazed that some people manage to keep going for over four!
At university I play korfball. This is a team sport with eight people on each team. The aim is to shoot the ball into the hoop(篮圈), which is like basketball hoop, only higher! All players get a chance to attack and defend during the game and it’s very fast-paced.
When I started korfball, I wasn’t very good at it. I could throw and catch but I wasn’t very fast on my feet. Shooting was also difficult for me. Moreover, you often have to shoot on the move in korfball, and I found it hard to balance and shoot straight while running backwards away from my defender!
However, I really enjoyed the sport and made friends in the club, so I attended training twice a week. Two years later I am in the first team for my university and have played in many matches. This just shows if you train hard, you can succeed.
Running is difficult because you have to make yourself willing to keep going. I used to get really out of breath while running and I didn’t feel good at all! Now I actually enjoy going for a run along the river in Salzburg, feeling my muscles(肌肉) working and breathing in the fresh air.
Challenging exercise is always rewarding. Hiking is fun because all the hard work—walking uphill—comes at the beginning of the day. Then at the top of the mountain you can enjoy the view and some well-earned chocolate! At the end of the day you feel like you’ve really achieved something.
I will never be a marathon runner, but I would like to try a 10-km run sometime, or perhaps even a half-marathon. Seeing how happy the runners were as they crossed the finishing line made me want to have that feeling—the months of training paying off as you achieve your goal.
1.How did the author feel about running the marathon at first?
A.Tough. B.Strange.
C.Enjoyable. D.Exciting.
2.Why does the author think challenging exercise rewarding?
A.It helps him sleep well. B.It gives him a sense of achievement.
C.It helps him lose weight. D.It makes him become a marathon runner.
3.What does the passage want to tell us?
A.The meaning of keeping going.
B.The ways of doing sports.
C.The importance of regular exercise.
D.The benefits of running the marathon.

It’s OK to say you’ve never heard of grime (伦敦地下音乐) - unless you’re from the UK. That’s because this music type was invented in the UK in the early 2000s.
To someone who’s not familiar with underground music culture, ifs easy to get confused between hip-hop and grime since they are both noisy. And many people didn’t bother to tell them apart,until earlier this month when grime stars like Stormzy and J Hus led this year’s Mobo – “music of black origin”, an award in the UK. Just like UK electronic music and hip-hop, from which grime drew influence, it mostly reflects the thoughts of young people. But different from hip-hop, grime singers sing in dialects with strong accents, giving a special flavor to their songs.
Lady Leshurr,known as the “Grime Queen”, said that she once tried to hide her accent, as she didn’t want people to judge her. But one day, she realized that she didn’t need to change herself just to please others. And there’s no doubt that this is the soul of grime music: be yourself.
Grime has challenged modem music in its production beauty and its expressions. Also different from the hip-hop culture, which usually focuses on being rich, grime singers pay more attention to social phenomena like those who suffer from disasters and the gap between the rich and poor.
Although still quite a young music type, grime seems to be getting loved by more and more people. In 2016, the English grime artist Skepta won the Mercury Prize with his album Konnichiwa, beating big names like David Bowie and Radiohead.
However, no matter whether grime is one day accepted widely or not, one thing is for sure: in grime, singers always stay true to themselves.
1.Why is it easy to get confused between hip-hop and grime for some people?
A. They are the same in music form.
B. They both make a lot of noise.
C. They have a great effect on each other.
D. They both developed out of electronic music.
2.What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 2?
A. The award. B. Hip-Hop.
C. Electronic music. D. Grime.
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Grime is widely accepted all over the world now.
B. In grime, singers need to change themselves to please others.
C. More and more people like grime because it has a long history.
D. Grime singers have a strong sense of social responsibility.
4.Why does the author mention the success of Skepta?
A. To show that grime is getting more and more popular.
B. To prove that grime singers stay true to themselves.
C. To explain that underground music is still quite young.
D. To show that Skepta has greater musical talent than David Bowie.
