Subject: Hello!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi, Liam!
So you're my new pen friend. Let me tell you a bit about myself. I'm 14 years old and I live in
Calgary, Canada. I have two older brothers, Brian and Sam. I'm the only girl.
I love sports and I'm always looking for exciting new hobbies to try. I like playing baseball in winter.
It's fun beating the boys! But summer is my favourite time of the year. I love skateboarding and
rock climbing in summer.
Skateboarding's great because it's so fun and easy to learn! I often skateboard after school. There
are many places in the park where I can do stunts. I'm good at stunts like jumping and turning the
skateboard!
Rock climbing is also really fun. I usually climb with my dad on weekends. We can't do it on real
mountains very often because we live in the city. We do indoor rock climbing instead but it's not as
challenging.
So that's me! How about you? Please write back soon!
Bye for now!
Anne

"Well, just take a look at that wheel(航轮)!” Earl Cooper said to Candy, his wife. "It must be older than anything we have back home."
Earl was looking at the wall outside the pub(酒馆). The pub's name, The Old Swan, was on the wall. Next to the name was a wooden ship's wheel and in the middle of the wheel was the name of a ship, HMS Swan. The wheel was old, Earl could tell.
The next morning, Earl asked to see Tony Thatcher. The Old Swan was Tony's pub. He took
Earl to his office while Candy had a coffee outside by the river. Earl said he could give Tony a lot of money for the ship's wheel. He told Tony that Benjamin Cooper, his grandfather, went to America on the ship HMS Swan. But Tony said no at first. After all, the wheel was very old and it was part of the pub's past.
"You can think of the past, Mr. Thatcher - can I call you Ton y? - or you can think of today. And with the money, Tony, you can buy a good car. Maybe a new Jaguar? And, as l've told you, the wheel is part of my family's pastr too. So you could say it's going back home, in a way. So, what do you say?"
A month later, Earl and Candy were smiling as they looked at the wall of their house in Houston, Texas. Earl thought to himself that, at last, he had a piece of his family's past. He was happy.
In Portsmouth, Tony Thatcher was happy, too. He was putting his new Jaguar into his large garage( 车库). He was careful not to drive into any of tne six ship's wheels in the garage. A friend of his made the wheels for him. They were just like the one that Earl bought. And there was another wheel on the outside wall of The Old Swan now. Old or new - Tony thought there was no way that a tourist could ever know which was which. Never in a hundred years.
31. Why did Tony refuse to sell the wheel at first?
A. Because he thought it was old and part of the pub's past.
B. Because he wanted to show it was important to his pub.
C. Because he tried to sell it to someone else at a higher price.
D. Because he did not really believe what Earl had told him.
32. What can we infer(椎断) from the story?
A. Earl had looked for such a wheel for a long time before that.
B. Earl would soon find out the truth and become rather angry.
C. Tony had sold quite a few wheels like that ancl got wealthy,
D. Tony would play the same trick again to make more money.
33. Which ofthe following can be the best title ofthe story?
A. The Wheel on the Wall B. An Excellent Buy
C. Old or New - Who Knows D. the Family's Past
D
An early form ofa game in which a ball was kicked around a field is recorded in 1004 B.C. Japan. Some sports historians believe that the game of soccer began in England in the third century, however. They say that early English warriors(武士) kicked around the head of a k illed enemy. This may or may not be true, hut it is certain that soccer is an ancient sport.
Without doubt, the English played soccer during the times of King Edward I in the 1300s. In fact, the king passed a law against playing it. The law said, "There is great noise ... caused by kicking large balls from which many ghosts may appear." Anyone caught playing soccer at that t ime was put into prison. T:vo hundred years later, Queen Elizabeth I still had people put into prison for playing this "vulgar" sport.
Although there were such laws, soccer grew more popular. In 1681 it became an official(正式的) sport in England. By the 1800s, people throughout the country played soccer. By the 18th century, upper-class boys played it at schools. Its popularity grew among all English people.
At a meeting held in an English school in 1843, the first rules were suggested. In 1863 the heads of English soccer teams met in London to agree on some official rules. They organized an English football association(协会). By 1871 all of the English clubs were following these rulcs. Today all soccer teams play by them.
Soccer is called "football" everywhere but in the United States. The game is played mostly with feet. No players except the goalie (守门员 ) may touch the ball with their hands. They may control the ball with any part ofthe body except their hands.
Soccer is by far the world's most popular sport. Every four years, nearly every country in the world tlghts for the World Cup. Tens of billions of soccer fans from around the world watch the World Cup on television.
34. According to the passage, a "vulgar" sport probably

c. It became a popular sport throughout England.
d. The rules were accepted by all English clubs.
e. Playing the game was considered to be guilty.
A. e-c-a-b-d. B. e-c-a-d-b. C. e-a-c-b-d. D. e-a-c-d-b.
36. What can we learn from the passage?
