4 . 阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。

When I was a kid, my parents were busy working so they enrolled (登记) me in the Spartak Tennis Club in Moscow. Every day after school my parents would take me to Spartak and I would be there until maybe nine o'clock. All we did was play tennis, eat, do homework, have fun and hang out. It was basically my second family.

In that second family was a woman who was like a mother to me, my first coach, Larissa. I still refer to her as my second mother. She taught me everything I know about how to play tennis, but she’s also a wonderful person. She’s kind and patient, which is not what you expect from one of the top tennis coaches in Russia.

Her program when I was little was based on tricking us into doing our exercises. She would put a candy under the cones (锥形物), and we would try to hit the targets with balls, you got to have an ice cream.

Of course we worked hard and I didn’t let her down.

My second-ever tournament was the Moscow Championships, and I won. Afterwards Larissa came up to me and said, “Congratulations, Enjoy today because tomorrow it’s back to work.” She was always telling us to celebrate and have fun with any particular achievement but to always remember there is something more you can do, something more you can achieve.

Now every time I go back to Russia I go to Spartak to see Larissa. We look at all the pictures from all the birthday parties and tournament and celebrations. It is really cool to have someone like her in my life. Larissa is still coaching, but we don’t talk much about tennis any more. We just talk.

1. Why did the author go to Spartak every day? (no more than 15 words)
2. What does the author think of his coach? (no more than 10 words)
3. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about? (no more than 10 words)
4. What does the underlined phrase “let her down” in Paragraph 4 mean? (no more than 5 words)
5. What can you learn from Larissa? (no more than 25 words)

5 . 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。

Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg says he will read a book every two weeks, and he’s invited people all around the world to join him.

The “year of books” is Mark Zuckerberg’s 2015 goal. The billionaire is famous for his quirky New Year’s plans. Two years ago, he challenged himself to meet a new person a day. Last year he attempted to write a “thank-you note” every day. He said, “Although I’m very busy, I always have many strange ideas and I still have time to achieve my goals. If you set a goal, you must try your best to make it come true.”

It will come as no surprise that he’s already launched a Facebook page — entitled “A year of books” — to serve as the reading group’s discussion center. Over 62,000 people from all around the world have liked the page in the first 24 hours. Many of them expressed their desires to join Mark Zuckerberg in reading a book every two weeks in their message of the page.

“I hope all the people who participate in the discussion actually have read the books and have relevant points to add. The group will keep it continuously focused,” he stressed on his Facebook page. “With the development of technology, fewer people in the world read books. I do hope people read more books in their spare time rather than surf the Internet or play with their mobiles,” he added on his Facebook page.

The plan is to select books about various topics and cultures. “The Bible” and “Quran” (《可兰经》) have been popular suggestions among hundreds of other titles. The first book is “The End of Power” by Moisés Naím, a former Foreign Policy editor. It’s a 300-page deep dive into the changing nature of leadership today that was published in March 2013.

1. What is Mark Zuckerberg’s New Year’s plan in 2015? (No more than 10 words)
2. What does the underlined word “quirky” most probably mean in English? (1 word)
3. Why did Mark Zuckerberg start a page named “A year of books”? (No more than 10 words)
4. What is the book “The End of Power” about? (No more than 10 words)
5. What do you think of Mark Zuckerberg? Give your reasons. (No more than 25 words)

6 . We all know at least one person shows confidence and grace (优雅) without working at it.     1    , make sure to avoid the following common body-language errors.

Slouching (佝背)

Slouching is a huge no-no.     2    . It may be caused by our habit of sitting in front of computers for long periods, but as soon as you get up from your chair, it’s time to straighten out that back. Try squaring out your chest slightly while keeping your shoulders back.

Weak Handshaking

It’s programmed in our minds to consider somebody with a weak handshake as untrustworthy. Unfortunately, there’s no way around it—you either have a firm handshake and appear trustworthy or you don’t. It’s not a good idea to have a crushing (太用力的) handshake, either.     3    

Rolling Your Eyes

This is the classic way of showing discomfort or anger.     4    , but your partner will definitely feel offended by your way of letting them know what they said isn’t worth a second thought.

Leaning (倾斜) Back

    5    . It shows that you’re not threatening. However, there’s a fine line between leaning back right and leaning back wrong. If done incorrectly, you’ll appear to be uninterested in what your partner has to say. It’s better to play it safe and keep a straight back.

A．So try to stand straight

B．If you want your body to make the same impression

C．Sitting backward a bit can be good for your conversation

D．All cultures are different in terms of proper social conduct

E．But it’s one of the most commonly made body- language errors

F．It can feel good to respond to a silly statement by rolling your eyes

G．You can respond with similar amount of pressure that your shaking partner gives

7 . Tea is currently the world's most popular drink, only after water. However, there was a time when tea was known only to the Chinese.    1     And how did it get to conquer the world to the extent that people often describe something they really like as their “Cup of tea?”

While we know that tea drink started in China, its true origin remains something of a mystery. Legend has it that about 5,000 years ago, Shennong came across tea when dried leaves blew into a pot of boiling water. Following his discovery, tea was used as medicine, included in meals and later offered as a refreshing drink to officials and noblemen.     2    

    3     over the years, as tea drinking became an important part of China's rich culture. The great Tang poet Du Fu described his tea-drinking experience in poetic language. Lu Yu, a tea master, wrote The Classic of Tea, which remains the earliest and most famous detailed study on tea in the world.

It is then not surprising that the beauty of tea was eventually revealed to a wider world.    4     Porters carrying back-breaking loads of tea bricks made their way through dangerous snow-covered mountain passes, to trade Sichuan and Yunnan tea for horses:     5     As early as the Tang Dynasty, Japanese monks came to study in China and took with them tea seeds and tea-making customs when returning to Japan. Around the 1600s, tea was shipped to Europe from China by Portuguese and Dutch sea traders.

A．So, how did tea originate in China?

B．But how was tea introduced overseas?

C．Tea became the main theme in ancient poems,

D．The love of tea inspired many people to write about it,

E．Over time, the gift of tea was further delivered to Western Asia and Eastern Africa.

F．Eventually, it became a common drink enjoyed and embraced by all Chinese people.

G．Tang and Song Dynasties needed strong Tibetan horses, the Tea Horse Road was born.

8 . When I was growing up in Minnesota, Joe Versus the Volcano was one of my favorite movies. I ________ to be swept away to an island. But as I found myself in La Palma ________ on the Cumbre Vieja eruption in the Spanish Canary Islands, I quickly ________ that there’s nothing romantic about volcanoes or being trapped on an island.

I had come ________ — an N95 mask, baseball cap, and a swimming mask. But nothing could prepare me for the invasiveness of the volcanic ________ . It fell from the sky like a rainstorm, lining streets, ________ doorways and windowsills, and filling my ears.

It wasn’t long before the airlines canceled all flights. When ________ began panic, buying all the ferry tickets as I was interviewing residents about their futures, I realized I had ________ the boat.

For two days, I wandered ________ streets awaiting the resumption of travel, carrying a backpack and feeling progressively stuck and at times ________ . And then I realized I was being given the ________ for deeper insight. Here I was ________ what the local people were feeling: uncertainty, frustration, and tiredness from living next to an erupting volcano with no end in sight.

Like the people of La Palma, I ________ others to get me through — from the English woman who ________ me a bag of oranges from her garden to the minister of the church who let me use the bathroom after being trapped at the top of a mountain.

As I finally left, I realized how ________ I was to have experienced the humanity of the people in La Palma in the face of crisis. I know it’s what will pull them through it.

10 . 语法填空

Will you eat everything in your lunch box today? If not, will you save it for another time or just throw it away?

A recent study     1     (find) that 17% of all the food     2     (produce) around the world gets wasted each year,     3     reaches about 931 million tons. Believe it     4     not, 61% of the waste happens in our houses!

Food waste in homes     5     (happen) in rich countries like the US and the UK as well as in poor countries for different reasons.

Cultural habits could also lead to waste at home,       6     (include) massive packaging and “buy one, get one free” deals. ‘Use by’ or ‘best by’ dates       7     products could also cause people to throw away food. People could throw out food because they think it is     8     (safe) to eat, when in fact the date only shows when quality might go down.

Food was     9     (much) valued even in richer countries just a few generations ago, because people often couldn’t afford to waste it.     10     (throw) away food is for sure a great waste and we should try to make people know the importance of saving food.
