I had the plant for two months, and every day I looked at it, but there weren't any flowers or pleasant smell. I was not happy, so I gave the plant to my friend Linda.‎ One day, another friend Mary called and invited me to her office. When I walked in, her jasmine flowers surprised me. I reached out to touch the flowers. Mary cut some and gave them to me. I couldn't help smelling them. Surrounded by the sweet smell of only a handful of these flowers, I suddenly understood something.‎ ‎ Mary bought her plant the same time I did. It took a year for her jasmine to bloom. I was so impatient for mine to bloom; regretfully, I gave it away.‎ ‎ In a way my life is like the jasmine plant. I need to be patient and let things happen.‎ ‎ Last Sunday Linda told me that she was going abroad the next week. Before she left, she returned the plant to me. This time I am going to wait. I have learned that when we want something in our life, we have to be patient. I am slowly learning to have that patience to wait for my jasmine to bloom.‎ ‎50. Before she gave the jasmine away, the writer had it for .‎ A. one day B. one year C . two weeks D. two months ‎51. When the writer saw Mary's jasmine, she felt____________ .‎ A. unhappy B. peaceful C. hopeful D. surprised ‎52. What has the writer learned from her experience?‎ A. Patience is needed in life.‎ B. Flowers can make life better.‎ C. Friendship is necessary for us.‎ D. Jasmine can be a wonderful plant.‎ C ‎ Assertiveness is the ability to confidently express your opinions, feelings,‎ attitudes, and rights, in a way that doesn't infringe（侵犯） the rights of others.‎ ‎ Many of us are taught that it is not nice to consider our own needs above those of others. If someone says or does something that we don't like, we should just be ‎ quiet and try to stay away from that person in the future.‎ ‎ Why is Assertiveness important?‎ ‎ If you don't know how to be assertive, you might experience:‎ ‎•Depression - Anger, a sense of being helpless, hopeless, or of having no　control over your life.‎ ‎•Resentment - Anger at others for taking advantage of you.‎ ‎•Frustration - Why did I allow that to happen?‎ ‎ Most people find it easier to be assertive in some situations than in others. This　makes perfect sense. It's a lot easier to hold your ground with a stranger than with　someone you love. But the more important the relationship is to you, the more　ｉｍｐｏｒｔａｎｔ it is to be assertive. Assertive behavior leads to increased respect from others！‎ ‎ But before you decide to act assertively, you have to decide if you can live ‎ with the results. Although assertive behavior usually will result in a positive ‎ response (积极的回应)，some people 　might react differently.‎ ‎ How to be effectively（有效地） assertive:‎ ‎ •Use "I" statements. Keep the focus on the problem you're having. "I'd like to be able to tell my stories without interruption." instead of "You're always interrupting my stories ! "‎ ‎ •Use facts, not opinions. "Did you know that shirt has a hole?" instead of　"You're not going out looking like THAT, are you?"‎ ‎ •Express ownership of your thoughts, feelings, and opinions. "I get angry when he breaks his promises. " instead of "He makes me angry. "‎ ‎ • Make clear and direct requirements. Don't invite the person to say no. "Will you please?" instead of　'Would you mind．．．?" or "Why don't you．．．?"‎ ‎•Keep repeating your point. Use a low level and pleasant voice. Don't try to explain yourself.‎ ‎53. The writer probably agrees that____________.‎ A. you should consider others' response before you act assertively B. you should be assertive if you want to get good marks C. assertiveness is the ability to infringe others' rights .‎ D. assertive behavior will bring you bad feelings ‎54. The expression "hold yourｇround" probably means “_________________”‎ A. reach an agreement ‎ B. insist on your point C. keep your word ‎ D. keep on fighting ‎55. Which of the following helps you to be effectively assertive?‎ A. Explaining yourself in a soft and sweet voice.‎ B. Expressing ownership of others' thoughts.‎ C. Making requirements directly and clearly.‎ D. Using your opinions instead of facts.‎ D ‎ ‎ The willful blindness in hockey toward concussions (头部撞击) has dropped. Hockey Canada has followed the lead of USA Hockey in preventing bodychecking (身体拦截) below age 13. A bad head injury of Sidney Crosby, the hockey's greatest star, opened the eyes of hockey people everywhere. This country's children have been facing similar danger at early ages, and Hockey Canada had to deal with a deep worry in the minds of Canadians to make the rule change. The liking for bodychecking from an early age is part of what makes Canadian hockey what it is.‎ ‎ The change in rules should be taken as a chance to draw special attention to skill development in an environment free of danger. It may also control the loss of thousands of young players who don't enjoy that environment.‎ ‎ For years, many Canadian hockey parents and coaches have insisted that bodychecking at early ages is necessary to ensure that players can do it safely at older ages. True or not, there may be a safer way to teach hitting than to make younger players pay a price for it in head injuries. When USA Hockey changed its rules for the 2011-2012 season, it also created bodychecking-education programs that will be mandatory(强制的) for all coaches, including those teaching players in the pre-checking ages. And it began to encourage more "touch" - without real bodychecking - from 9 t0 12. It also made the rules for 13 and up stricter. The USA is trying to show that it's possible to teach hockey protective skills without putting11 and 12-year-olds in greater danger. It's worth the try.‎ ‎ Hockey Canada has taken serious steps to do away with hits on the head. However, it's hard to change a sports culture so connected with who we are as a country. Too often, bodychecking has been used to try to separate a player from his head rather than from the ball. Children were paying a price for this country's love of the game.‎ ‎ There are always changes in Canada's game, and the change in the bodychecking age sends the clearest message yet to coaches and parents that player safety is paramount(至上的) in the game.‎ ‎56. We can tell that the problem of bodychecking in Canada____________.‎ A. is controlled strictly B. is taken more seriously now C. is caused by players' carelessness D. is connected with players' interest ‎57. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 2?‎ A. The safe ways of controlling the loss.‎ B. The steps of drawing special attention.‎ C. The possible results of changing the rules.‎ D. The methods of improving the environment.‎ ‎58. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. The USA found a safer way to teach bodychecking.‎ B. Bodychecking-education programs in the USA are successful.‎ C. Bodychecking is a good way to value players' skills in the USA.‎ D. The USA has tried to create an environment of less bodychecking.‎ ‎59. What is probably the best title' for this passage?‎ A. Which is more important?‎ B. How do we change the rules?‎ C. Why is hockey a dangerous game?‎ D. When should bodychecking be prevented?‎ 七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。（共8分，每小题2分）‎ Time to Dance ‎ Are you the kind of person who likes to move with music? It's a natural thing to do. Even little children start jumping up and down when they hear music.‎ ‎ Scientists say that animals dance, too_____60______ . The "dances" of animals send messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings about life and love, or about these very human experiences.‎ ‎ Dances are good for you in many ways. For one thing, dancing is good for you physically. It makes your heart work and makes you breathe fast. _____61______. If you go dancing often, you can keep physically fit. You may feel very tired after dancing, but you’ll probably also feel relaxed and happy. This is another important point about dancing. It gives you a chance to express your feelings and feel better about yourself_____62______, dancing helps those feelings go away.‎ ‎ _____63______ Some dances are for couples and some are for groups. But all kinds of dances give you a chance to meet new people or to do something enjoyable with friends.‎ A. But their dancing is different B. And finally, it's a social activity C. If people like dancing very much D. If you are angry or upset about something E. It also makes you use your arms and your legs 八.阅读短文 根据短文内容回答下列各题（共10分，每题2分）‎ ‎ Camping in your backyard is full of fun, whatever your age. It's great for keeping us relaxed.

Pretty or ugly? Will she care?" Oh well, I figured it didn't really matter, anyway. I'd had so many speech therapists over the years I'd lost count. Another school, another therapist. I wondered why I even bothered to go. My stuttering seemed to be just as much of a problem now as it always was, and besides I hated to miss P.E. How did they find out that I stutter anyway? The last school must have sent my records. It was pretty hard to hide the way I talked. As I walked down the hallway, memories popped in my head of how painful being a kid who stutters had been. Memories of how the kids used to call me "Motor Mouth," and of the teacher who asked me if I had "lock-jaw." It still hurt.‎ ‎　　The pain welled up inside as I rounded the last corner toward the office. "Don't start getting weak knees now," I whispered to myself. I wondered why I didn't stutter when I whispered, or when I talked to myself. At any rate I was sixteen years old and a junior in high school - time to gut up. Time to meet the new one!‎ ‎　　"Hello! I'm Mrs. Claussen. I hear you're from Texas!" She must have thought I was a little off my rocker as I stood there gawking, with my mouth wide open and my face red as a beet. She was really pretty! And she was young, too!‎ ‎　　"Ye-Ye-Ye-Yes m-m-m-m-m-m-m-aam I am," I fumbled out. My heart felt like it was pounding through my chest, my palms were dripping wet, and I was tense all over. I really blew that introduction, and figured she probably thought I was a goof ball. "Well," she said with a kind smile, "I've always liked Texas."‎ ‎　　Mrs. Claussen turned out to be one of the best speech therapists I've ever had. Not like the one in San Antonio who told me to tap my toe so I could talk to a rhythm. That was the beginning of the longest list of circus antics anyone has ever seen. That toe tap developed into a foot stomp, a hand pound, a squinted eye, a head jerk and various other "helpers."‎ ‎　　Mrs. Claussen was different though. She spent the first several weeks just talking to me - asking me all kinds of questions about myself - about feelings - about what I thought I did when I blocked. And she listened. She began to teach me about the fundamentals of speech. Not just about my speech, but about everybody's. Mrs. Claussen taught me about technical things, like circumlocution (a fancy term for avoiding words). And she listened.‎ ‎　　I sang in the choir all of my school career and was a pretty good tenor. At my old school I was in the top concert choir, but when my family was transferred I learned ‎ that the new school's choir was all filled up. It was such a disappointment. I felt like that was the one thing that I could really do well - and I could do it without stuttering. Somehow Mrs. Claussen pulled some strings, rearranged my whole schedule, and got me in the choir. I felt like she really cared about me as a person, not just a speech student.‎ ‎　　During my last two years of school I couldn't really say that my speech got much better - except in therapy. She explained that my increased fluency in therapy was because I was so relaxed, and I knew that she didn't care if I stuttered. I remember saying that I wished the whole world was a big therapy session. We laughed!‎ ‎　　Mrs. Claussen told me that when I left high school and went off to college that my speech would probably get worse for a while. She was sure right. Things got considerably worse. I wondered if I would ever be able to communicate. It was a very depressing time, and I often felt alone.‎ ‎　　One day when I was feeling particularly sorry for myself, I recalled something that Mrs. Claussen had told me over and over. She said that if I really wanted to change my speech and become more fluent that I could, but that it was all up to me. I remembered she said not to strive for perfect speech, just better speech. She was right about that, too. I eventually looked for and found another speech therapist. I began to work very hard and over the next couple of years improved my speech considerably.‎ ‎　　A few time, when I was at home for a break from college, I tried to get in touch with her, but I never did. In fact, I never saw or talked with her after I left high school. Many years have passed since then, and I think of her from time to time, wondering if she had as much impact on her other students as she had on me. I like to think that she did. I'll never forget her. Her name was Mrs. Claussen . . . and she cared.‎ ‎　　________________________________________‎ ‎　　(Dr. Lee Reeves is veterinarian who operated his own clinic in Plano‎, ‎Texas.
