Ⅱ.阅读理解 A February 4，2012 saw the takeoff of a new rising NBA star—Jeremy Lin. Among professional basketball players, Jeremy Lin's background is not typical. He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and he is the only ChineseAmerican NBA player. But when you watch him on the court, there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball. Lin's enjoyment of basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lin's father moved to U．S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun. In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, after his admission to Harvard, he was offered a place on its college basketball team. During Lin's time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1，482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history. When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract, but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors. At first, playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore_off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few very difficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 2 But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come. Then his moment arrived on February 4，2012, on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight. After that, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory. The Associated Press called Lin “the most surprising story in the NBA”. Knicks fans developed the nickname for him “Linsanity” (林发疯). Time magazine released its 2012 list of the 100 “Most Influential People in the World”， Jeremy Lin included. No doubt, Lin fever is continuing to spread if you haven't already caught “Linsanity”， get ready. 11．Which of the following elements is of little help in Lin's success? A．His father's influence.

Many television companies have used sports to attract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers. An attraction of sport programs for the major U. S. media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons—the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming. Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance. Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings (收视率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling highpriced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach highincome consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don't need high ratings to stay on the air. 16. Television sport programs on weekend afternoons ________． A．result in more sport events B．get more viewers to play sports C．make more people interested in television D．bring more money to the television networks 17. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs? A．Because there would be few viewers. B．Because the advertisers would be off work. C．Because television programs would go slowly. D．Because viewers would pay less for watching television. 18. In many families, men make decisions on ________． A．holiday trips B．sports viewing C．television shopping D．expensive purchases 19. The ratings are not important for golf and tennis programs because ________． A．their advertisers are carmakers B．their viewers are attracted by sports C．their advertisers target at rich people D．their viewers can afford expensive cars 20. What is the passage mainly about? A．Television ratings are determined by male viewers. B．Rich viewers contribute most to television companies. C．Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television. D．Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events. Ⅲ.读写任务 阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇 150 词左右的英语短文。 A poor boy had one penny left.

Years later, as a famous doctor, he saved the woman's life and returned the final bill to her in return for her help. Greatly inspired by the story, I learn that once helped by others, we should be grateful. If my friend is in need of help, I will comfort him and spare no effort to help him out. It occurred to me that once I was about to go home when it started to rain heavily. Having left my umbrella at home, I could do nothing but stay in the classroom. At this moment, my classmate Henry gave me his umbrella. His kindness and willingness to help greatly impressed me. Several days before an important exam, Henry fell seriously ill. Every day after school, I went to the hospital to accompany him, helping him catch up with his lessons. Eventually, he got a good mark.
