Rugby World Cup was decided.In New York,the baseball season saw its final match.More than 80,000 audiences watched New Zealand win the Rugby championship 34-17 over Australia.The match was held on Saturday at the famous Twickenham Stadium near London.It was the second world title for New Zealand.Fans call the team“All Blacks”because of their black un iforms.A day later,the baseball World Series came to a close with a win by the Kansas City Royals over the New York Mets.In the World Series,the first team to win four games claims victory.The Royals won four of the first five games played with the Mets.Kansas City last won in 1985.The Rugby World Cup opened on September 18,when England defeatedFiji.Forty-eight matches and six weeks later,New Zealand won the title.Going into the tournament,the All Blacks were ranked No.1 in the world.Every t ournament like this has a“favorite,”or the team expected to win.The tournament also has an“underdog,”or the team less likely to win.But the underdog often becomes a favorite.This year in the Rugby World Cup,the“underdog”team was Japan.Coming into the tournament,Japan was ranked 13th in the world.But after an inspiring showing in the group stage of the tournament,Japan moved up three places to 10th.Aside from the championship game itself,the match that created the biggest surprise came when Japan defeated world No.3 South Africa 34-32.The Associated Press called it“the biggest shock in Rugby World Cup history.”South Africa was a two­time World Cup champion.Japan had only ever won one match in the World Cup before that game.1.Why were the two major sports events reported together?A.They were both held in developed countries.B.Their results both came out at the same time.C.The winners were both not expected.D.They

unexpected,but so beautiful.Luckily she put her address on the envelope so I had the chance to send her back a small gift to say thanks and wish her a good health.And then,the latest gift of love was from our cleaner at work.What a lovely soul!A lovely lady who cleans our work place in the mornings,and I usually only get the chance to say hello to her a couple of times a week and have small talks.Yesterday she left an envelope for me with a card with wishes for me on the arrival of my baby,I was so touched that she actually got me a card,but I was totally dumbfounded when I opened it and saw a $100 note!She didn't have to do that,and it didn't feel right for me that she spent so much on me—someone she hardly knows that well,so instead,Hubby and I decided we will give it all back to her in a different way.We bought her some small gifts:perfumes, chocolates,jewelry etc and will give it to her this week as the way to pay her back.I'm also leaving work so it's a beautiful way to give her something before leaving.People like her just remind me that there are so many beautiful souls out there!1.Why did the patient send the author weaved clothes?A.She would have a baby.B.She could provide help.C.She begged her to do so.D.Her baby needed clothes.2.What made the author surprised when she checked the gift?A.The money.B.The card.C.The wishes.D.The envelope.3.The author and her husband bought the cleaner some gifts to________.A.satisfy her everyday needsB.encourage her to work betterC.show their great thanks to herD.return her money in another way4.How does the author

that an adjective modifies(修饰),describing a quality of a noun.For example,you drink a cup of hot tea.The adjective is hot and the noun is tea.What about lemon tea?Lemon is a noun,isn't it?Why is it modifying tea?English often uses nouns as adjectives to modify other nouns.For example,a car that people drive in races is a race car.A car with extra power or speed is a sports car.Nouns that modify other nouns are called adjectival nouns.Did you notice something unusual about the expressions with the noun car?A car used to race other cars is a race car.Both nouns are singular.A car that has power and speed is a sports car.Why is the first noun,sports,plural?A search of the Internet shows us that people started using this phrase back in 1914.Cars were a new thing then.There is no rule about whether the attributive noun is singular or plural.Most of the time it is singular.But if the combination of nouns includes a plural noun,it usually stays that way.The result is phrases like ladies room,not lady room,for a room meant for women and girls,and bean soup but not beans soup for a soup made of beans.Some grammar experts think that English speakers are using more plural nouns in this way.When writing these attributive nouns in English,learners sometimes wonder about whether to use an apostrophe(撇号)to show possession.Is it a ladies' room?No,it is a ladies room.Attributive nouns do not need the apostrophe.So we write Veterans(老兵)Day in American English and not Veteran's Day or Veterans' Day.That means the day is in honor of military veterans,not owned by veterans.1.What's the topic of this text?A.The function of nouns.B.Special kinds of adjective.C.A special use of nouns.D.The use of adjectives.2.Adjectival nouns can be used to describe________.A.adjectivesB.sentencesC.phrasesD.other nouns3.Why is the plural form “sports” is used to describe a noun?A.It is a traditional usage.B.It is a rule of grammar.C.It is a grammar mistake.D.It is a form of stress.4.Which of the following is a correct English expression?dies' room.B.Veteran's Day.C.Veterans' Day.二、七选五5、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
