1、阅读下面短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Who can jump the highest at your school? Who has the most skips（跳绳）? Who’s the fastest at solving a Rubik’s Cube?1. Everyone can be the best at something. Recently, Beijing 101 Middle School held an activity called “Guinness Campus” to help students find their potential（潜力）.

“2. There are all kinds of projects for you to take part in. And there are also all kinds of records for you to set, ”said ninth-grader Liu Tongyan. “ I chose ‘Domino（多米诺骨牌）Tower’ because I am good at it. ”

Students needed to build a tower using dominoes. Whoever built the tallest tower in one minute won. Liu set the record with 33 levels. “At first I didn’t do it well, so I tried to learn from others. 3. After trying over and over again, I found some ways to do it faster, ”she said. “The game requires you to be calm and patient. If you lose your patience when the tower falls, you may lose the chance to win. ”

Seventh-grader Wang Siqi set a record for the longest juggle（颠球）of a soccer ball with one foot. He did it for 4 minutes and 34 seconds. “4. 我五岁就学着踢足球。I have been practicing juggling for three or four years, so I believe I can do it well, ” said Wang. “Juggling with only one foot needs good balance and stability, which I’m good at. You also need to train hard, for sure. ”

When asked if he was afraid that someone else would break his record one day, Wang said he was expecting that to happen. “The charm（魅力）of Guinness Campus is that we keep reaching higher goals. 5. 如果有人打破了我的记录, 我将会更努力地尝试。That will help me find the potential within me. ”

21、A hobby can be almost anything that a person likes to do in his free time. Hobbyists keep pets, build model ships, watch birds, climb mountains, and grow flowers. Hobbyists also paint pictures, go to concerts, play and perform on musical instruments. They collect everything from books to butterflies and from coins to stamps.

People have hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment, friendship, knowledge and relaxation. Sometimes they even make some money by following a hobby. Hobbies help people relax after hard work, and provide a balance between work and play. Hobbies also offer more interesting activities for persons who have retired. Anyone, rich or poor, old or young, sick or well, can follow an interesting hobby.

Hobbies can also help to keep a person’s mental and physical health. Doctors have found that hobbies are helpful for sick people to get better from physical or mental illness. Hobbies give them something to do, and offer interests that keep them from thinking about themselves.

In early years, most people were too busy making a living to have many hobbies. But some persons who were free did enjoy hobbies.

People today have more time for hobbies than before. Machines have reduced the time that they must spend on their jobs. More people are retiring at an earlier age than before. Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their free hours.

Sir William Osler, a famous Canadian doctor says, “No man is really happy or safe without a hobby.”

22、It was a usual morning. After snoozing (瞌睡) twice, I took care of my three cats, and then hurried to complete housework while drinking some coffee. Oh, my dear! I nearly forgot my mid-morning appointment. I raced out!

By the time I finished my appointment, I felt a little hungry. I stopped at Moe’s to order a pie to take home and eat while working.

Since it was a little before noon, there was a line of people. A woman, who I later learned was Marcella, was paying at the register (柜台). She asked the woman behind her in line if she would like a drink and then asked me. We both said no, and must have looked confused (困惑的), because she said, ‘I got you.’ She continued to pay for both of our meals – even though we were strangers.

I asked Marcella why she did this, and she shared that someone once did something similar for her. The person asked that she might pay it forward some day and she was making good on her promise.

Before leaving, she gave me a warm hug (拥抱) and asked me to do an act of kindness for a stranger when I could. I nodded. I arrived home, but instead of working through lunch, I sat and kept thinking of her kindness.

Marcella didn’t need to pay for my lunch. But she did, and it brightened my day. Not because I got to keep my $15, but because she was kind – and did not want to receive anything in return.

▲ I’ll make a small difference in someone else’s life, and the ripple effect (连锁反应) will continue. Because that’s what being human is all about – being kind – even to a stranger.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A．I was very kind.

a. Marcella hugged me and left.

b. I raced out to my appointment.

c. Marcella paid for my lunch.

d. I stood in line to order a pie.

e. I knew her name was Marcella.

A．cabde

B．bacde

C．bdcea

D．dabec

【3】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A．I knew Marcella before.

B．Moe’s is a restaurant.

C．The pie cost me $15.

D．I didn’t keep the promise.

【4】Which of the following sentences can be filled in ▲ ?

A．I must refuse others’ kindness.
