Today Dante had a small skating competition in his class. Before we went to the competition, I asked him if he wanted to wear something nice for the competition and he said, “Who cares? It’s not important.” When we showed up at the rink, we found that most of the kids were dressed up. One boy who was around nine years old was my son’s friend, wearing a dress shirt and a pink vest. I walked over to his mother saying how beautifully dressed he was. But his mother said, “He didn’t want to dress up. He said that this competition was not important for him to dress up.”
I thought it was interesting that neither Dante nor his friend viewed the competition as important and neither wanted to dress up. I started to wonder
if this was how a child learned what was “important” and what wasn’t.
Interestingly, this boy won two medals and Dante won none.
Parents and teachers often instill what they think is important: then children will accept the opinions of the adults. Gradually, they grow up stressing about how they look, how many medals they get, what color the medals are, how good their grades are, what a great “job” they can get in life, what a big house they can live in... etc.
Dante taught me an important lesson today. He taught me what was unimportant. Life goes on long after the medal ceremony whether you win a medal or not.
(1)Why didn’t Dante want to dress up for the compet ition?
A . He had no proper clothes.
B . He had no time to dress up.
C . His mother didn’t prepare clothes for him.
D . He thought he didn’t need to dress up.
(2)What does Paragraph 5 want to tell us?
A . Children stress about many things in life.
B . Adults may instill wrong ideas into children.
C . Children are always influenced by adults.
D . Adults should set good examples to children.
(3)What lesson did the author learn from her son?
A . Winning medals makes people proud.
B . Not all things are that important in life.
C . Fairness is more important in competitions.
D . Kids have a better understanding of life than adults.

I came to Rio, Brazil to work one year ago. So what have I found here?
You need to learn Portuguese
I started studying Portuguese about two years ago. I didn’t end up
improving my Portuguese as much as I’d hoped before I came here. While Spanish and Portuguese are structurally quite similar, there are huge differences between the two. You can’t just magically understand Brazilians if you speak Spanish.
I didn’t need to bring heels
Going out in cities like Buenos Aires is a big deal. You get dressed up, you do your hair, and you definitely wear heels- at least if you’re going out to dance. I had no idea how wrong I was. Yes, Rio is a city, but it’s a city on the beach. Of course, there are fancy clubs that probably expect everyone to show up in dress shoes, but most of the places I’ve been to are fine with sneakers, even for dancing.
Learning about pop music is a must
Whenever I go out and a pop song comes on, every single other person there sings along to all the words. I still haven’t unde rstood if there are only 25 songs that get played in public or if people really do just have a fantastic memory for lyrics, but either way, I wish I’d spent a bit more time practicing Brazilian pop music so I wouldn’t look like such a lost foreigner.
Airplanes are a surprisingly sensitive subject
In Brazil, the credit for modern flight goes to Alberto Santos Dumont. Brazilians say the Wright Brothers’ use of a catapult was technically cheating and point to their man as the real pioneer of the plane. Therefore, be careful before bringing up the subject of planes in Brazil unless you’re ready for a lecture.
(1)What can we infer about Brazilians?
A . They are fond of dancing.
B . They understand Spanish.
C . They are informally dressed.
D . They have a good memory.
(2)How did the author react when the others were singing?
A . She sang along.
B . She felt ashamed.
C . She felt like an outsider.
D . She pretended to be lost.
(3)What topic should you avoid in Rio?
A . The history of planes.
B . Dressing styles.
C . Pop music.
D . Spanish.
(4)What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A . To tell us something about Brazil.
B . To share her life in Rio as a foreigner.
C . To give foreigners in Rio some suggestions.
D . To encourage us to learn a foreign language.

Were you into skateboarding, surfing or snowboarding when you were a kid? We can remember our first go at skateboarding, as well as the first time we managed to stand up on surfboards.
It was so much fun that we were hooked on extreme sports. However, not everyone thinks that introducing children to extreme sports is a good idea.
Writer Jon Lackman considers whether sports like snowboarding, climbing and skateboarding could be dangerous to the growing bodies of young children. Lackman also looks for advice from medical professions.”
“Kids aren’t mentally ready for these activities,” says a doctor, Vani Sabesan. “They cannot realize the risks, and their parents can’t always be
trusted to stop them.”
Sabesan is particularly worried about the influence of extreme sports on TV and the Internet on children. “What we’re seeing is that a lot of kids think they can do what the professional athletes can do.”
If someone, who was encouraged to go surfing at the age of five, was presented with a surfboard when he/she was seven, I think these worries are a little overstated, if not misplaced.
Extreme sports can be dangerous, but there’s as much chance of falling off your bike or your roller skates as off a skateboard or surfboard.
My own experience of extreme sports leads me to think that I’ll allow my own kids to try them in the same way my parents allowed me.
In sports such as surfing and snowboarding, there’s a sense of adventure and courage. It is important to tell young children about it.
Did I fall off my surfboard? All the time. Did I get back on? Every time.
(1)What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A . To introduce the topic of the text.
B . To tell us what are extreme sports.
C . To encourage people to play sports.
D . To tell us what kind of sports the author liked.
(2)Which of the following can replace t he underlined part “hooked on” in Paragraph 2?
A . attracted by
B . shocked at
C . disappointed at
D . worried about
(3)What do Vani sabesan’s words mean?
A . Kids who are mentally ill should not play extreme sports.
B . Parents are
responsible for kids’ safet y in extreme sports.C . Kids are too young to realize the danger of extreme sports.D . Kids should be encouraged to do what professional athletes do.
(4)What’s the authors’ attitude to kids playing extreme sports?
A . He/She is against it.
B . He/She supports it.
C . He/She is doubtful about it.
D . He/She is unconcerned about it.
