【西城二模】四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共10分,每小题2分)Mom's Recipe for LifeI have a lot of Mom's recipes in a blue box where all my special ones were put,like the pumpkin pie she made during my growing up years. Even so,the recipe I treasure most is not on any index card,nor did she send it to me in a letter. Instead,she lived this recipe all of her life.My mother grew up in a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa. My grandfather once told me that she knew no stranger;she considered everyone in that community her friend. That attitude continued wherever she lived for the rest of her life.As a teen,I was embarrassed(尴尬的)every time my mother talked to strangers and offered a smile to everyone in the store or on the city bus. Almost all of them responded(回应)with a bright smile of their own. Some spoke,others nodded their heads at this elderly woman who brought a little light into their day.What really sold me on Mom's approach to life was her experience on the senior bus. The weeks I could not be there,,I asked her how it went.“ Ha!”she said,“ I got on that bus and what did I see?Thirteen little old ladies and one old man,and not one word was spoken.”I wondered how long it would be until the silence on that bus would change. On my next visit,Mom mentioned the 13 little old ladies on the bus and something one of them had told her.“ Oh,are you talking with them now?”I asked.“ Of course,”she said. “ One day I climbed up the steps of the bus and before I looked for a seat,I gave them a big smile and I said,‘ Isn't it a wonderful day?I noticed a few shy smiles.”Mom didn't give up. She greeted them all each time she got on the bus and before long,the whole group was laughing and talking to one another. The bus became more than just transportation.When we went to the various stores,I watched as she smiled and chatted with perfect strangers. Some of them looked like the poorest person you'd ever met,but once Mom smiled at them and started a conversation,most responded favorably. My mother didn't embarrass me any longer. I found myself admiring her.She's been gone for ten years but I've carried on her recipe for life. It was me who had done the smiling first and all those people had responded. My mother didn't lecture but taught me by example. She'd given me a recipe for life.34. Where did the writer's mom grow up?35. Did the people talk on the bus on Mom's first trip?36. What did Mom do to make the bus more than transportation?37. How did the writer feel about Mom in the end?38. What is Mom's recipe for life?34. In a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa.35. No,they didn't.36. She greeted them all each time she got on the bus.37. Proud.38. The attitude of considering everyone her friend.【东城二模】四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。

北京市八区2018届初三二模英语分类汇编——C篇
【西城二模】CAfter the holiday season,our guess is that you are tired from visiting the store and buying gifts.It is easy to get stuck,both spiritually and physically by having too much. This is why minimalism and living simply should be your resolution for 2018.Economic development results in a lot of consumerism(消费):get a good job,get a nice car,and settle into a beautiful house. But some people say that our lives could use a little lightening thesedays:We work and work and work to only buy and buy and buy—but does all that material wealth really lead to our happiness?Are we filling our time with unnecessary things,when we should be filling our time with friends,value,and service?An article from the website,Becoming Minimalist,points out the problem with this cycle(循环)in the best way,“ Nobody really believes happiness is directly tied to the number of things we own.Yet almost all of us live like it. We get stuck in it. We work more hours than ever before,earn moreincome,but save less.”Minimalism isn't all about ridding(摆脱)consumerism and products from your life. Minimalismis about finding your own sense of self and focusing on the things you love. It is about creating a lifestyle that is focused on only those people and things that enrich you.These days,minimalistic living can come in many forms. We think the most practical form of minimalistic living for us is to follow our list:How You Can Live Lighter in 2018.Purge Your Closet:Take a day and clear out all of your drawers and closets. If somethingdoesn't have special meaning or adds no value to your life—give it away. Have only what you need and what you can see.Test Those Limits:See how long you can go without shopping. Give yourself a limit,whether it be two weeks or six months,whether it be avoiding a certain mall or buying clothes. Then put your self will to the test. After your allowed time,chances are you will realize all those extra blouses weren't worth it and you will set yourself up for future spending control.Cut the Cord:This sometimes means giving up your modern technology:TV,cell phone,computer,etc. Limit yourself to only a few hours of TV per week,or only 30 minutes of social media per day. You'll make more time for the things and people that you love and clear outsome unnecessary noise from your life.Live to Your Goals:Find out what your life goals and values are. Then,see what may help you or stop you from achieving this goal. Cut out that which doesn't lead to your happiness and success and add more of what does.Remember,a pared down lifestyle doesn't mean less success or less happiness. It representsyour freedom to focus on the things in life that really matter.27. The cycle “ people work and work only to buy and buy” shows .A. people get stuck physically and spirituallyB. people don't believe wealth leads to happinessC. people don't want to save moreD. people fall in love with buying28. To practise minimalistic living,you should .A. give away your drawers and closetsB. go to the shopping mall every six monthsC. have 30 minutes of social media per dayD. discover your life goals and values29. The words “ pared down”in the last paragraph probably mean “” .A. freeB. lightC. popularD. convenient30. Which of the following best explains the writer's opinion?A. It might take you a long time to wait for the “ right”thing.B. Clear out the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.C. Change yourself with the development of society.D. Freedom is more important than success.27. A 28. D 29. B 30. B【东城二模】CDo You Believe You Can Improve?There5s a high school in Chicago with an unusual grading system. If students don’t pass a test, they get a different kind of grade “Not Yet” instead of “Failed”. In her TED presentation The Power of Believing You Can Improve, Carol Dweck, a psychologist(心理学家),explains the power of “Not Yet”:If you get a failing grade,you think you’re nothing. But if you get the grade “Not Yet”,you understand that you’re on the way to the future.In one study led by Dweck, she wanted to see how children dealt with challenges and difficulties. She gave l0-year-old children problems that werea bit too hard for them. “Some of them behaved in a surprisingly positive way,’’ex plained Dweck. “They said things like ‘1 love a challenge" or ‘1 think I’velearned something from this. These children had a “growth mindset”. They understood that their abilities could be developed. They didn’t run from error(失误);they learned from it.But other children felt it was terrible to make an error. They felt their intelligence(才智)had been used up. These children had a “fixed mindset”.They didn’t believe they could do anything to improve the situation. In thefollow-up studies, Dweck learned these children were more likely to cheat.They looked for someone who did worse than they did so they could feel better about themselves. The children with a fixed mindset were operating from the “Now”,however, the children with a growth mindset were operating from the “Not Yet”.We all have things we want to improve. The problem, however, is few ofus believe we can. We believe we’re not smart, or we don’t have enough time.We believe we can’t persist (坚持)in the face of difficulties or learn fromcriticism(批评).It’s a result of a fixed mindset. But the wonderful reality is wecan move from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset once we know how.First, believe you can change, now. Not tomorrow, next week, nextmonth, or next year, but now.Next, for every negative(负面的)thought, write down a positive answer.So when your self-talk says,“I tried running before and gave up after a week. ”,you can reply, “That’s because I didn’t have a carefully designed plan. Now Ihave one and I’m going to stick to it. ’’Developing a growth mindset takes time and effort, but over time, with enoughpractice, you’ll operate less from the “Now” and more from the “Not Yet”.27. Why does the school in Chicago use “Not Yet” instead of “Failed” to gradestudents?A. To keep students from losing confidence.B. To help students realize their weak points.C. To advise students to take the test a second time.D. To make students understand their future is uncertain.28. Which of the following statements shows that the person has a “growthminds et”?A. “I failed in the task. I was nothing. ’’B. “I can’t stick to taking exercise. I’m too busy. ”C. “I know math is interesting but I am not smart for it. ”D. “I didn’t win the competition but I learned a lot from it. ”29. What can we learn from the passage?A. Most people believe they can improve themselves.B. Dweck did the study to help children get better grades.C. Some children cheated in the study and were punished.D. People can follow some ways to develop a growth mindset.27. A28.D29.D30. B【海淀二模】CLyme Disease —A Medical MysteryIn the autumn of 1975, lots of people in Lyme, Connecticut, suffered from a strange illness. Two doctors from Yale, Allan Steere and Stephen Malawista, began a study that would result in an important medical discovery.The doctors began by having careful examinations of each patient. They found the patients of all ages were having a set of things hardly seen together, such as headaches, skin rashes (皮疹), swollen knees, fever, tiredness and so on. There was also a high rate of arthritis (关节炎), a painful condition around the knees. No reasons could be found through blood tests. However, they found the most useful information in the interviews with the patients: one quarter of them recalled a skin rash about four weeks before the arthritis appeared.Then the Department of Health did surveys with the Yale doctors to learn where the disease was most widely seen. It seemed that most patients lived in heavily wooded areas, away from the center of town. Besides, most patients spent a good deal of time outdoors, gardening, camping, or playing. More importantly, some recalled having been bitten by a tick.By 1977, researchers began to believe that the deer tick was responsible. Then they discovered that a special type of bacteria (细菌), carried by the deer tick, was causing the disease. It was later named Lyme bacteria. The deer tick often feeds on deer. But we can also find it on mice. Scientists then concluded that the bacteria passed from wildlife to ticks to humans. All lived closely among one another in the area.How could a disease break out so suddenly? Many areas of the northeast, including Lyme, Connecticut, were once farmland. Over the years, the farmland was replanted with trees. After the forest grew in, all kinds of wildlife appeared. At the same time, this area was developed with houses. Gradually, neighborhoods pushed deeper into the home of the wildlife. Humans became more likely to meet more ticks and get the disease.After much research, the cause of Lyme disease was successfully identified (确认), thanks to the hard work of many scientists, doctors and patients. Today, more and more people have knowledge of Lyme disease, which is easily treated if caught early.27. Which helped Dr. Steere and Dr. Malawista most?A. Having interviews with the patients.B. Examining the patients carefully.C. Separating the patients into age groups.D. Doing blood tests among the patients.28. Which of the following is true about Lyme disease?A.Little is known about Lyme disease today.B.Most of the patients lived in the center of town.C.More trees could keep people away from the disease.D.Wildlife spread the bacteria to ticks and then to humans.29. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To describe how Lyme disease was treated.B. To warn people not to go outdoors in the forest.C. To introduce how the cause of Lyme disease was found.D. To criticize the people who spread Lyme disease around.27. A 28. D 29. C【朝阳二模】CIt turns out that a scientist can see the future by watchingfour-year-olds with a sweet. The researcher invites the children into asimple room. “You can have this sweet right now,”he says. “But if youwait while I go out for a few minutes, you can have two sweets when I get back.” And then he leaves.Some children eat the sweet the moment he’s out the door. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others make up their mind to wait. They cover their eyes, they put their heads down, they sing to themselves, they try to play games or even fall asleep. When the researcher returns, he gives these children their sweets. And then, science waits for them to grow up.By the time the children reach high school, something unusual has happened. A survey of the children’s parents and teachers found that those who as four-year-olds were strong-minded enough to hold out for the second sweet generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable teenagers. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early on were more likely to be lonely and easily upset.When we think of excellence, we see Einstein—deep-eyed, woolly-haired, a thinking machine. High achievers, we imagine, were born for greatness. But then you have to wonder why, over time, natural talent seems to flower in some, yet disappear in others. This is where the sweets come in. The ability to put off the pleasure of meeting needs is a master skill, a victory of the reasoning brain over the impulsive (冲动的) one. It is a sign, in short, of emotional intelligence. And it doesn’t show up on an IQ test.In his book Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman argues that brain power as measured by IQ actually matters less than qualities of mind like understanding one’s own feelings, empathy(同情)—being sensitive to other people’s feeling—and the ability to manage your own emotions. EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers are trying to understand is how they work to improve each other. Among the ingredients (因素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%: the rest depends on everything from luck, to social class… and emotional intelligence. In the business world, according to personal executives (主管), IQ gets you a job, but EQ gets you a higher position.27. Some children get two sweets in the research because they ______.A. have a strong mindB. like eating sweetsC. play games togetherD. sing to themselves28. Which of the following doesn’t belong to EQ according to the passage?A. Being able to get a job.B. Understanding one’s own feelings.C. Being able to control one’s emotions.D. Understanding the feelings of others.29. What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce the book called Emotional Intelligence.B. To explain the importance of emotional intelligence.C. To share some ways of developing emotional intelligence.D. To share some examples of improving emotional intelligence.(C) 27. A 28. A 29. B【丰台二模】CLearning vocabulary doesn’t have to be borin gMany students have problems with vocabulary when preparingfor tests like the SATs. Last week, TEENS offered advice onhow to memorize new words. If you’re now familiar with thosemethods, why not try moving on to the next stage by usingthe following tips to build up your English vocabulary.Repeated encounters (反复遇见)The usual way of “mem orizing” new material is through repeating it while it’s still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word seems to have little long-term effect.But one kind of repetition is effective: repetition of encounters with a word. Words stand a good chance of being remembered if they’ve been met at least seven times in your reading, at intervals (相隔一段时间). So, read English magazines, newspapers, and websites regularly.Spacing and reviewIt’s better to distribute (分配) memory work over a period of time rather than do it in a single session (一段时间). This is known as the “principle of distributedpractice”, where new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next, and then in later lessons.Use it or lose itPutting words to use in interesting ways helps add them to your long-termmemory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students who made up their own sentenceswith new words and read them aloud remembered them better than those who learnedthe words separately and silently. Best of all, students were given the task of silentlyimagining a picture in their minds to go with a new word. So it might help if learnerslink words with a mental image.Mix it upLet’s face it —learning words can be really boring, but it doesn’t have to be.Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. Trywatching videos from English-speaking social media celebrities and copying the waythey speak. You could even upload your own videos and try becoming a staryourself.27. According to the passage, a good way of memorizing new words isA. simply repeating themB. learning the words silentlyC. reviewing them in one lessonD. reading English magazines regularly28. To make learning words more interesting, we can.A. try to become a famous starB. read new words on websitesC. make and upload our own English videosD. draw a picture on the paper with a new word29. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Where to use new words.B. How to memorize new words.C. When to learn new words.D. What to write with new words.27. D 28. C 29. B【石景山二模】C“Text Neck is not just a texting problem,” said Dr. Dean Fishman. “Text Neck is a gaming problem. Text Neck is an e-mailing problem.”Fishman made up the term “Text Neck ” in 2008 whileexamining a 17-year-old patient. The teen came in complaining ofneck pain. Fishman noticed that the teen was sitting in a chair,bending (弯曲) over her smartphone, texting away. “I knew I had something,” Fishman said.A recent study published in Surgical Technology International ’s 25th edition says texting may be hurting your back. The study found that bending your head to look at your mobile phone held in your hands can put up to 60 pounds of pressure (压力) on your neck. The average human head weighs 10 pounds in a right position – when your ears are over your shoulders. For every inch you bend your head forward, the pressure on your back doubles.Staying in the “forward head posture ” can lead to many problems. Over time, it can even change the natural curve (曲线) of your neck.Dr. Michelle Collie, director of Performance Physical Therapy in Rhode Island, recently says Text Neck has increased very quickly, especially among her younger patients. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, 8- to 18-year-olds spend almost seven and a half hours using mobile device or desktop computer for fun every day.So what’s a smartphone-texting, laptop-loving guy to do?First, Collie said, is to pay attention to your body. Keep your feet flat on the floor, roll your shoulders back and keep your ears directly over them so your head isn’t bent forward. And use something to support the weight of a mobile device.Fishman’s Text Neck Institute created a mobile app to help you remember to avoid forward head posture. When your phone is held at a safe point, a green light shines. When you’re at risk for Text Neck, a red light appears.Most important is taking breaks from time to time while using any mobile device or desktop computer. About every 20 minutes, stand up, roll your shoulders and neck or go for a short walk to have a break.27. What might Fishman mean by saying “I knew I had something”?A. He had the same smartphone as the patient.B. He got a new name for the patient’s pain.C. He wanted to play a joke on the patient.D. He had the same idea with the patient.28. According to the passage, your head is in the right position when ______.A. you bend over your neck oftenB. your ears are over your shouldersC. you turn your neck to the other sideD. you put up more pressure on your neck29. The last three paragraphs are mainly talking about ______.A. how to make Text Neck appsB. what causes Text NeckC. how to avoid Text NeckD. the results of Text Neck27. B 28. B 29. C【昌平二模】CHavefunandgetsmarter?W e all know about the pleasure and fun that we get from playing video games. There’s the satisfaction of finally reaching the last level of a game after months of trying. Some experts now say that as well as offering pleasure, video games might also be good for you.T oo good to be true?It seems that when you play video games, you might get some very important skills. They are great for your concentration (集中注意力). Being able to focus is a skill you can use at school or later, in a job. Fitness (健身) games, which are very popular, allow you to practise sports skills like balancing. A lot ofgames also teach decision-making skills. For example when you have to choose the best way to escape from a burning building in a game, you’re learning how to solve problems and make your decision quickly. Gaming teaches you about success and failure too. A lot of games are difficult, and you have to work hard to reach the top level, which teaches you that in life you can succeed if you keep on trying. On the other hand, games teach you that if you fail, don’t give up – have a break, and then try again.Some psychologists (心理学家) believe that role-playing games are particularly valuable. In thevirtual environment, young people can take on roles which are often not possible for them in real life. Y ou can become a leader, and have to deal with people who lie to you, or hide things from you. By dealing with these situations, you can develop socialskills that might help you in the real world when you’re older.Gaming does have its disadvantages, of course. Playing for a while is great, but people who play for hours can have problems. Physically, it can stop you from getting enough exercises, which is unhealthy.Psychologically, some players can become addicted (上瘾) to their games and begin to prefer their “virtual” lives, where they are always in control.But overall, playing video games is not harmful, unless you spend too much time. While you’re building your city, or looking after your farm in a game, you’re also developing skills that will stay with you for the rest of your life.27. What does the underlined word “virtual” mean?A. Unclear.B. Unreal.C. Valuable.D. Possible.28. How does the writer think of video games?A. They’re harmful to our study and work.B. They give us chances to realize our dream.C. Playing video games is bad for our health.D. Video games can benefit us in many ways.29. What does gaming teach usabout success and failure?A. A void the difficult top levels.B. Choose the best way to play.C. Believe in hard trying for success.D. Get enough rest after each failure.27-29 BDC【房山二模】CThe computer makes doing schoolwork easier for me than it was for my mom and dad. For example, when writing book reports and storing, I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after my teacher edits(编辑) my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing. And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.For English class, we’re reading The Outsiders, by S. E. Hinton. As a pre-reading task, my teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Internet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on Time. com.For a geography task on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, what states it runs through, and what kind of fish live in it. I usedthe information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy (经济). For example, the river’s trade paths, the number of fish caught in it, and the tourists it attracts directly influence Southerners’ jobs and incomes (收入).I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my parents work, getting to the library isn’t always easy. For a big assignment or research project, I used to stay at the library to read, or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias (百科全书) also save time.Sometimes, I think the computer spoils young people because i t’s so easy —at least physically. But computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer using a computer. Easy, fun, and fast.27. When writing book reports, the computer can help the writer _____.A. call his teacher to edit his work.B. go back home and review his workC. rewrite his work and correct his mistakesD. store his work and check his spelling mistakes28. The writer probably agrees that______.A. a teacher’s work is much easier than beforeB.

Even so,the recipe I treasure most is not on any index card,nor did she send it to me in a letter. Instead,she lived this recipe all of her life.My mother grew up in a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa. My grandfather once told me that she knew no stranger;she considered everyone in that community her friend.

【西城二模】BParisian architect(建筑师)Paul Andreu has designed so many landmark buildings in China.Among his best known are the National Grand Theatre in Beijing,the Jinan Grand Theatre and ShanghaiPudong International Airport. Andreu is nearly 80 and he continues to develop projects in China. The world famous architect,writer and painter held his first art show last summer in Beijing where he sat down for this interview.How was it that you went from architecture to writing—and more recently to painting?I have a desire to create,for continuous renewal. While I can't say that I know everything aboutarchitecture,I no longer have much to prove or discover. For me,painting is just as important,creatively,but it's something you do alone in your workshop,with a piece of paper and a pot of ink—it's totally refreshing.Why did you wait so many years to start painting?It was a kind of need. I was tired off in my field and wanted to try something new and I tried toimprove this situation by writing. But writing is a very long process—it takes at least a year to write abook. Painting is faster. Being alone with yourself during the day,in the light,and then putting yourself in a situation where you produce something of which you know nothing and for which no onehas asked—it's a kind of freedom you seldom have in life.What is your project in China right now?There's a project in the Zhuhai Macao area. The Chinese engineering and building company Zhuhai Da Heng Qin asked French architect Thomas Coldefy to think about the project,suggestingthat he work with an architect who's already known in China. He asked me if I'd be willing to do some of the work. We'll present the project some time before December;the planned completion dateis in 2019.24. Paul Andreu has gone from architecture to painting because .A. he likes paper and inkB. he thinks painting is fasterC. he has a desire to createD. he has to prove that he is great25. Where is Paul Andreu's project in China now?A. In Beijing.B. In Jinan.C. In Shanghai Pudong.D. In the Zhuhai Macao area.26. What do you know about Paul Andreu from the passage?A. His achievements.B. His challenges.C. His worries.D. His habits. 【东城二模】Georgina hated wrapping Christmas gifts. It washard to make them look good. She couldn’t fold and cutcleanly, and the gifts just looked sad under theChristmas tree as if someone had sat upon them.

They looked really nice reflecting the lights of the Christmas tree.For her perfect sister, Jeannette, it would be hard to make things perfect enough, because she was very picky. To make fun of this, all of her gifts were wrapped in pink and red paper, and small mirrors hung from the gifts, so shecould see herself when she was opening her gifts. It was a fun idea.Dad loves reading humorous stories in newspapers, so Georgina boughtsome newspapers and covered his gifts with funny stories. He would surelylaugh as he opened his gifts.Mom was so hard-working but managed to present herself at her best. Itwas hard to figure out her gift-wrapping. Finally, Georgina decided to wrap thegifts up in an apron(围裙).She was done, and she couldn’t wait to see their reactions(反应)!The next morning, everyone was pleasantly surprised about howthoughtful and cool her wrapping job was.

South Africa was a long way from his hometown in America.“Ready?” Dad asked.“Ready,” Jeremy answered. They climbed into the old truck. Jeremy hardly ever spent time with his father, a famous wildlife photographer. So far, he wasn’t sure whether he liked following his dad around. The job seemed hard and boring.As the truck moved along the rough road, there was a big crash. The door had fallen off!“Now we can see better,” Dad laughed. Their guide Makalu threw the door into the back of the truck.They stopped near a watering hole. Makalu said he was friends with the elephants that sometimes came here. Maybe they’d see some.Before long, Jeremy saw a small group of elephants walk toward the water. Dad jumped out of the truck and focused his camera on the largest elephant.Jeremy noticed a baby elephant walking between two adults. It was small, by elephant standards. Jeremy watched as they neared the water. The larger elephants walked into the water, showering themselves happily. They drew water into their trunks and shot it into the air. It was an elephant party. Then the baby elephant rushed in and water went up to its eyes. The water was too deep for it. The baby elephant was in trouble. It tried to climb out of the water, but the bank was too steep (陡峭的). Other elephants tried pushing the baby up, without success. The mother elephant shouted.Jeremy took the broken door from the back of the truck. Makalu saw what Jeremy was planning and ran to help. Together they pulled the door down to the water. Makalu comforted the mother elephant, gently explaining that they were going to help her baby.The mother knew Makalu and trusted him. Jeremy moved the door onto the bank. Its mother pushed from behind. The baby stepped onto the door and began to walk. Three more steps, and it was safe. The other elephants gathered around the baby, touching it with their trunks.“Boy, Jeremy,” Dad said, “That was the most exciting photo I’ve ever taken! I’m glad you came along.”24.

He has managed to put his words into action showing those around him that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.As the son of working parents, Fila had to make the most of every opportunity no matter how small.“I remember there was a small basketball hoop near where I lived.

In order to prove his talent, Fila went to West Hills Community College in Fresno, Calif, where he played football for two years.

It’s Fila’s achievements that set him apart from the traditional student players.There’re so many ways to get educated. There’s education from life experience, school and social interaction. In addition to excelling (胜过) in the classroom and on the field, Fila started his own YouTube channel (频道), Motion Impact. It is through his channel that he produces motivational videos and offers them up to the viewing public.He would like to think those experiences will help with his biggest goal that he wants to make a difference to the world.

But in February, in Sapporo, Japan, trucks actually bring snow into the city! People shovel the snow into large piles, and these piles of snow become outdoor cafes, concert stages, and beautiful sculptures (雕像).Artists from all over the world come to Sapporo’s Snow Festival every year to enter the sculpture competition. But the sculptures aren’t made of stone, metal or wood – they are made of snow and ice! Artists sometimes work 11 to 12 hours a day to make amazing sculptures. Many of the sculptures are huge and very detailed. During the day, the sculptures shine in the winter sun. At night, colorful lights shine on them. Millions of people go to see them every year.The Snow Festival had not always been so popular. It started in 1950 as something very small. People in Sapporo wanted to go outside and have fun during the long, boring winter, so the city held a one-day fair in a park. People listened to music and danced. They watched movies and dog races. But some high school students had a great idea and built six large interesting snowsculptures. People really liked the sculptures, and the Snow Festival was born.Five years later, soldiers nearby brought tons of snow into the city. They made the snow into large blocks and used ladders to build huge sculptures. These sculptures were amazing, and the small festival turned into an international event.More than 60 years have passed. Today, the festival is seven days long. Every year, millions of people wear their warmest coats and go outside to celebrate the snow!24.

He didn't like this, but he did not know what to do. One day he had an idea. He went around the village with a basket and asked each person to give him some of their wisdom(智慧). The people laughed at Anansi because they knew that he needed wisdom the most. So each person put a bit in his basket and wished him good luck.Soon his basket was full, but Anansi was worried that his neighbors might be jealous(嫉妒) of his wisdom and take it from him. He decided to hide it at the top ofa tall tree. When he had tied the basket to the front part of his body, he tried to climb the tree, but it was too difficult. He tried again and again without success.Then his youngest son walked by. "What are you doing, father?" he asked and Anansi told him." Why don't you carry the basket on your back instead?" his son said.Anansi put the basket on his back and climbed the tree easily, but he wasn't happy. "I walked all over the village and collected so much wisdom that I am the wisest person ever, but my baby son is still wiser than me. Take back your wisdom!" he said. And he threw the basket of wisdom into the air and went home. And that's how wisdom went all over the world.24. Anansi went around the village for _______.A. wisdomB. luckC.foodD.money25.
