    Dear Basketball                     And so I ran.

    I ran up and down every playground

    From the right moment                       I gave you my heart

    I fell in love with you.                    Because it came with so much more.

    A love so deep I gave you my all —

    From my mind & body                         I played through the sweat(汗水) and hurt

    To my spirit & soul(灵魂).                  Not because challenge(挑战) called me

    But because YOU called me.

    As a six-year-old boy I did everything for YOU.

    Deeply in love with you

    I never saw the end of the tunnel. You gave a six-year-old boy his dream

    I only saw myself                          And I'll always love you for it.

    Running out of one.                        Love you always.

        How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world?

        The sun was probably the world's first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos (爱斯基摩人) live. There, it's dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don't have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, it's day, and when it's dark, it's night. The sun can also tell you if it's morning, noon, or afternoon.

        People near the sea can tell time from the tides(潮汐). In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.

    Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock. In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.

        A sand(沙) clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom(底部) part in exactly one hour. When people turn over the hourglass, the sand will take another hour to go back again.

    1. (1) How many ways does the passage show us to tell time including the watches and clocks?
      A . 9 B . 4 C . 7 D . 5
    2. (2) The Eskimos in the far north can't use the sun for a clock because ______.
      A . They know very little about the sun B . The sun there never goes down in winter C . It's too cold for them to go out to watch the sun D . It has long dark winters and long light summers
    3. (3) The writer thinks ______.
      A . there are no more than two tides in a day B . a sand clock is a better clock than the tide C . only the moon is a good “clock” for seamen D . the wind can be a clock all over the world
    4. (4) In which column(栏目) of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage?
      A . Science. B . News. C . Advertisements. D . Sports.

        I work as a volunteer for a group that helps the poor in Haiti. I decided to take my son Brain there for a week, hoping to educate(教育) him.

        Before getting out, I told Brain this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. Then on the third day, when we were climbing over high rocky mountains(高山), he turned to me and smiled, “Really hard.”

    After that, a five-year-old girl, wearing a too large dress and broken shoes, followed Brain around. Later he said, “I wish I could speak French.” I was surprised that this was from a boy who always hated French classes.

        However, the moment that really reached my heart occurred in a village in the mountains. I was interviewing(采访) a woman villager for an article. By working hard, she learned to read and write and became one of the leaders of the village.

        Learning her story, Brain was greatly touched. His eyes were wet and there was love and respect(尊重) on his face. He finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home, Brain even offered to stay in as a volunteer. This trip was very meaningful.

    1. (1) Why did the writer take his son to Haiti?
      A . Because they wanted to take a trip there. B . Because they went there to visit a friend. C . Because his son wanted to help the poor there. D . Because the writer wanted to educate his son.
    2. (2) What does the underlined word “occurred” mean?
      A . Left. B . Offered. C . Happened. D . Reached.
    3. (3) What did NOT the boy learn from this trip?
      A . To love and respect poor people. B . To be an excellent leader. C . To offer help to people in need. D . To be a kind and hard—working man.
    4. (4) What is the passage mainly about?
      A . An exciting trip. B . How to be a volunteer. C . A story of a volunteering trip. D . The importance of voluntary work.

八、阅读填空
  • 42. (2016八上·无锡期末) 先通读下文,根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息,每空限填一词。

        What do you read when you are travelling by train or bus? What are other people reading? Perhaps a woman sitting near you is reading a love story. A man is reading a serious biography(自传) about a president. And there's a student reading an English textbook.

        What do their choices(选择) say about them? Do you think you can know them by what they are reading? I have got to tell you that your feelings of them may be quite wrong. The woman reading the love story could be a lawyer. She just wants a light read to take her mind off work. The man reading the biography wants you to think that he is very clever. The student reading the textbook isn't a student at all. She's an English teacher.

        Publishers(出版商) know that some people care what they read on trains or buses and so they put out different types of covers. For example, books about Harry Potter have a cartoon cover for young readers and then another more serious cover for grown—ups.

        So next time you are on a train, look around and see what other people are reading, but don't jump to any conclusions(结论). You will be wrong maybe.

    Here is a sentence that you could say, “Don't judge(判断) a book by its cover”.

    Title:Never judge a book people choose to read by the cover.

    The lawyer reading a love story just wants to have a .

    The man reading the biography wantspeople to think he is very clever.
