Truly happy and successful people get that way by becoming the best, most genuine (

version of themselves

.

Not on the outside

on the inside. It?s not about a bran

It?s about reality: who you really are.

Sounds simple, I know. The problem is, it?s very hard to do, it takes a lot of work, and it can

①

On a field roughly the size of an American football field, a player wearing a helmet

avoids

a

defender.

He

then

swings

a

stick

with

a

net

on

its

end

toward

the

goal.

This

sweeping

motion sends a rubber ball flying from the net past a goalkeeper for a score.

②

The player

—

pumping his fists in celebration

—

has just scored a goal in lacrosse, a

sport

that

has

elements

of

hockey,

soccer

and

American

football.

But

lacrosse

differs

from

those

sports in its unique mixture of sticking-handling skills and physical contact. Ofte

n referred to as “the

fastest game on two feet”, lacrosse is such an exciting sport that new fans and players quickly find

themselves hooked.

In men?s lacrosse, two teams of 10 players compete over four periods lasting 15 minutes each.

Except the goalkeeper, each team fields three attackmen, three mid- fielders and three defensemen.

As in soccer, players cannot touch the ball with their hands. So players use their stick, called a crosse,

to keep the ball in play. While running across the field, they cradle the ball in the net, competing to

shoot a lacrosse ball into the opposing team?s gate.

The modern game of lacrosse originated from the long-stick game played by the Iroquois

(

易洛

魁人

)

. Mohawks, part of the Iroquois nation, taught the game to

French Canadians in Montreal in

1750.

This

led

to

a

series

of

contests

between

the

Iroquois

and

the

Canadians

with

the

Iroquois

winning 17 years in a row. Although they lost the games, the Canadian players never falter

(

犹豫

)

their love of the game.

③

- 6 -

In

America,

lacrosse

is

the

fastest- growing

sport

at

both

the

high

school

and

college

levels.

Some

coaches

have

said

this

popularity

may

be

due

to

two

factors

—

the

game?s

relative

safety

compared with other sports and its fast-

paced action. Prep school coach Bob Shriver says, “It?s just

fun…It

has

more

scoring

than

soccer,

more

people

than

basketball.

It

just

gets

in

your

soul.”

④

Apparently, passion for lacrosse isn?t limited to Ameri

ca. The number of member countries in

the Federation of International lacrosse has grown to 51. Members include such diverse countries as

Uganda,

Jamaica

and

Malaysia,

which

proves

that

once

someone

grabs

a

crosse,

they

will

get

hooked!

58. Where can the sentence

“Today, lacrosse is known as Canada’

s official summer sport!”

most probably be put?

A.

①

B.

②

C.

③

D.

④

59. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A. The basic rules of lacrosse.

B. Lasting time of lacrosse.

D. Different players of lacrosse.

C. The characteristics of lacrosse.

60. What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To show us the popularity of the exciting lacrosse.

B. To introduce to us a popular sport of lacrosse.

C. To inform us of the origin and history of lacrosse.

D. To reveal the significance of the sport of lacrosse.

C

A person?s chances of falling ill

from a new strain

(

菌株

)

of flu are at least partly determined by

the first strain they ever met with, a study suggests.

Research

in

Science

Journal

looked

at

the

18

strains

of

influenza

A

(

甲型流感

)

and

the

hemagglutinin protein

(

红血球凝集素蛋白

)

on its surface. They

say

there are only

two types of

this

protein and people are protected from the one their body meets first, but at risk from the other one.

A UK expert said that could explain different patterns in flu pandemics

(

流行病

)

.

The researchers, from University of Arizona in Tucson and the University of California, Los

Angeles, suggest their findings could explain why some flu outbreaks cause more deaths and serious

illnesses

in

younger

people.

The

first

time

a

person's

immune

system

meets

a

flu

virus,

it

makes

antibodies targeting hemagglutinin protein that sticks out of the surface of the virus

—

like a lollipop

(

棒棒糖

)

.

Even though there are 18 types of influenza A, there are only two versions of hemagglutinin.

The researchers, led by Dr Michael Worobey, classed them as “blue” and “orange” lollipops. They

said people born before the late 1960s were exposed to “blue lollipop” flu viruses —

H1 or H2

—

as

children. In later life they rarely fell ill from another “blue lollipop” flu —

H5N1 bird flu, but they

died from “orange” H7N9. Those born in the late 1960s and exposed to “orange lollipop” flu —

H3

—

have the opposite pattern.

His

team

looked

at

cases

of

H5N1

and

H7N9

—

two

kinds

of

bird

flu

which

have

affected

hundreds of people, but have not developed into pandemics. The researchers found a 75% protection

- 7 -

rate against severe disease and 80% protection rate against death if patients had been exposed to a

virus with the same protein version when they were children.

DrWorobey

said

the

finding

could

explain

the

unusual

effect

of

the

1918

“Spanish

flu”

pandemic, which was more deadly among young adults. “Those young adult

s were killed by an H1

virus

and

from

blood

analysed

many

decades

later

there

is

a

pretty

strong

indication

that

those

individuals

had

been

exposed

to

a

mismatched

H3

as

children

and

were

therefore

not

protected

against H1. The fact that we are seeing exactly the same pattern with current H5N1 and H7N9 cases

suggests

that

the

same

fundamental

processes

may

govern

both

the

historic

1918

pandemic

and

today?s contenders

(

斗争者

)

for the next big flu pandemic.”

Jonathan Ball, professor of University of Nottingham,

said, “This is a really neat piece of work

and

provides

a

reason

why

human

populations

have

been

sensitive

to

different

strains

of

bird

influenza over the past 100 years or so. The findings are based on analysis of patient records and

they certainly need further proof in the laboratory, but nonetheless the results are pretty amazing and

inspiring.”

61. The findings, if proved, will help people ________.

A. protect themselves from flu attacks

B. analyze more clearly the records of a patient infected with a bird flu

C. find out who are easier to get infected with a bird flu than others

D. find new drugs to cure patients of flu infections

62. The researchers use “blue lollipop” and “orange lollipop” for two versions of hemagglutinin in

order to produce ________.

A. a good visual effect

C. an effect of being abstract

focused on ________.

A. the popularity of the research

C. summary and future plans

A. Cure for Bird Flu Not Far Away

B. First Flu Affects Lifetime Risk

C. New Classification of Flu Pandemics

D. How Bird Flu Affects People

Are

you

a

different

person

when

you

speak

a

foreign

language?

That?s

just

one

of

the

questions

the

New

Yorker’

s

writer

and

native

North

Carolinian

Lauren

Collins

explores

in

her

autobiography, about her tough efforts to master French after marrying a Frenchman whose name

—

Olivier

—

she

couldn?t

even

pronounce

properly.

When

in

French

ranges

from

the

humorously

personal story to a deeper look at various theories of language acquisition and linguistics

(

语言学

).

B. challenges and current situation

D. evaluation and influences

B. a good logic effect

D. an effect of being clear

63. While what Dr Worobey said is focused on the facts, Jonathan Ball?s remarks on the research are

can serve as the best title of this passage?

- 8 -

The

couple met in London “on more or less neutral ground: his continent, my language.” But the

balance shifted when they moved to Geneva for Olivier?s work. The normally

voluble Collins found

herself at a loss

—

“nearly speechless.” The language barrier, and

her dependence on her husband

for simple things like buying the right cut of meat worsened her mixed feelings about “unlovely, but

not ridiculous” Geneva. She comments, “Language, as much as land, is a place. To be cut off from it

is to be, in a sense, hom

eless.”

Her sense of alienation

(

疏离感

)

leads to an examination of America?s miserable record when it

comes

to

foreign

languages,

“Linguists

call

America

?the

graveyard

of

languages?

because

of

its

singular ability to take in millions of immigrants and make their native languages die out in a few

generations,” Collins writes. Educated in Wilmington, N.C., and at Princeton, she could —

like the

vast majority of Americans

—

only speak their mother tongue.

Eight

months

after

she

moved

to

Switzerland,

Collins

gives

up

on

the

natural

acquisition

of

language and finally attends a French course. As she struggles with grammar and vocabulary, Collins

notes smartly that

vert

(green),

verre

(glass),

ver

(worm),

vers

(toward), and

vair

(squirrel) compose

a quintuple homonym

(

同形异义

)

. “Although it?s difficult, French can try” she says.

French

is

actually

considered

among

the

easiest

languages

for

an

English

speaker

to

learn,

especially compared to Arabic or Mandarin Chinese. Collins, whose notably rich English vocabulary

includes glossolalia (nonsense speech) and shibboleth (catchword or slogan), finds plenty of terrific

French words to love. She writes, “English is a trust fund, an unearned inheritance

(

遗产

)

, but I?ve

worked for every bit of French I?ve banked.”

Unlike Jhumpa Lahiri, who became so hooked on Italian and used it to write

In Other Words

,

Collins?s goals for learning French were more modest, “I wanted to speak French and to sound like

North

Carolina.”

She

also

wanted

to

be

able

to

deal

with

chimney

sweeps

and

butch

ers,

communicate with her in-

laws, and “to touch Olivier in his own language.” She admits that she feels

different speaking French, “Its austerity

(

朴素

)

made me feel more confused.”

Readers

looking

for

the

romantic

spark

of

classic

cross-cultural

love

stories

featuring

an

outgoing

American

and

a

shy

Frenchman

will

find

flashes

of

it

here.

Among

the

many

cultural

differences the couple argue over are her enthusiastic American habit of applying the verb

love

to

express enthusiasm for shoes, strawberries, and husbands alike. But there?s far more to Collins? book

than fantastic comedy, and those who have weathered linguistic crossings themselves tend to find

particular resonance

(

共鸣

)

in its inquiry into language, identity, and transcultural translation.

its

way

Past

Perfect

(Le

plus- que-parfait)

to

The

Present

(

Le

sent

) and

The

Conditional

(

Le

).

Collins ends on a delightful note with

Le Futur

—

fitting for a new mother about to move with her

hard-won French husband, French language, and Swiss-born daughter to the French-speaking city of

her dreams, Paris.

65. Which of the following statements is TRUE about

When in French
