Text10
People in the United States honor their parents with two specific days：Mother's Day,on the second Sunday in May,and Father's Day,on the third Sunday in June.During these days,Americans show love and respect for their parents.Parents raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens.They give their children love and care.These two days give us a chance to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers.More mothers now work outside the home.More fathers must help with childcare.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways.On Mother's Day,people often wear carnations.And family get together at home,as well as in restaurants.They often have outdoor picnics for Father's Day.These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.Children can make them in school.Many people make cards for their own parents.These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.It is not the value of the gift that is important,but it is“the thought that counts”．

A group of people decided to climb a mountain together.They thought it was going to be an easy climb,so they laughed and talked among themselves and didn't notice the sky growing darker.They soon got lost for they couldn't see very far in front of them.They huddled together that night over a fire.
No one walked too far away from the group by themselves because it would surely lead to death.They sat close to each other throughout the dark hours not just for warmth,but for the fact that staying with the group was their only hope for survival.After what felt like a century,the sun
started its slow climb up the sky.They were now able to see as far ahead of them as they liked,so they began to go down the mountain.
They still remained as a group at this time even though there was no real need.A bond(凝聚力)had formed throughout the group that could not be broken or ignored.They knew each other just as well as they knew themselves.As they reached the place where they had started their journey,they knew it was time to say goodbye.Feeling at peace,they bowed(鞠躬)deeply to each other.All of them kept the love they created as a group close to their hearts as they made their way out into the world alone.

故B正确。

C
It is probably the strangest sport anyone has ever invented.And at first sight,it looks like the petitors have to do two things. The first is to stand still.The second is to place their hands anywhere on the body of a car,and keep them there.
This is where things start getting difficult.Lots of people are doing the same thing.And the winner of the“handstand”contest is the person who can carry on doing it for the longest time.That person gets to own the car.
It still seems to be an easy thing to do.At the beginning it is.Anyone
can stand still.But when the contest has been going for four or five days, standing still seems like the most difficult job in the world.And keeping the hand in place over this time becomes an act of serious attention.After a few days,the hand seems to belong to someone else—someone who wants to go home and get some sleep.
Competitors are allowed to take a five­minute break every hour to eat,drink or do whatever else is necessary.No one is allowed to lean on the car for support.Winners need to be able to show great powers of attention.They also need to be able to develop special skills.
Maybe the popularity of the“handathon”is due to the fact that it is not necessary to be a trained athlete to petitors in the Longview handathon certainly don't seem to do much preparation.Most say they will prepare by“getting lots of sleep”.Others say they will“eat healthy food”or“pray for success”.The whole event gives ordinary people the chance to do something interesting and win something in the end.
Handathons are competitions,but there is little rivalry(竞争) between competitors.They help each other out and keep each other's spirits up.People who drop out early return with food,drink and encouragement.
本文是一篇说明文。

The Milk Squad is a group of nine young men in the eastern American city of Baltimore,Maryland.For them,skateboarding(滑板)is more than a sport.It is a way of life.The Milk Squad brings together young people of different races and beliefs.Almost every day,you can see all nine with their skateboards and bright orange T­shirts in Carroll Park.
Jamone McKenzie is one of the group members.His friends gave him a nickname(外号)—Psycho.The name comes from the term meaning someone with mental(精神的)problems.“The reason is that I usually do crazy things that most people wouldn't try，”McKenzie said.
McKenzie started skating when he was nine­year­old.At the time, his mother was afraid that he would get injured.His great progress, however,seems to have impressed her.“Now I see she is no longer angry when people mention me.Instead,she takes pride in me，”he said.
Skateboarding began in California in the middle of the20th century. Over the years,the sport's popularity has spread around the world. However,skateboarders often wonder where to play skateboards. Stephanie Murdock is the founder of a non­profit organization that supports the skaters.She helped to raise almost one million dollars for a new skate park.
Group leader Jamal said skateboarders should be as valuable as baseball players or as basketball players and more skate parks should be built to interest other young people,including girls,in the sport.Despite all the difficulties,the new skate park is expected to open soon.
As for the Milk Squad's members,they have received a sponsorship
(资助)offer.The Bodymore skateboard company is providing them with hats,T­shirts,and skateboards for free.

How to become a role model
A role model is someone who a person admires,respects and wishes to imitate.Here is how to be a role model.
__36__If you see something you don't agree with,don't be afraid to stand up and say something.Others will take note of what you've done and remember it.By standing up for your beliefs,you're encouraging others to do the same.
Help other people in a variety of ways.For example,sign up for a program such as Big Brothers or help some new kids around your school. Many people would like to have someone to look up to,but simply don't. __37__Act like yourself,not someone you're not.Many people think a role model is someone famous and outstanding.__38__By being helpful, kind and most importantly,yourself,people will start to admire and look up to you.
__39__Role models aren't admired because of their greatness,but rather the determination it takes to get there.Even if you're not the best,
people will take notice of your hard work and devotion.
Think of who your role models are and the reason for that.__40__ For example,if your role model is a singer who has songs aiming at human rights,volunteering at a charity may achieve the same outcome. Others will take note of this behavior and begin to look up to you.
A．Work hard in everything that you do.
B．Stand up for the things in which you believe.
C．As a role model,you have to take your social responsibilities.
D．You can change this by becoming a helpful person in their life.
E．However,you don't have to be extraordinary to become a role model.
F．Analyze the reason why you look up to someone and then imitate that behavior.
G．For example,if you're watching a younger kid being badly treated, help him out.
