He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player. But when you watch him o
19、n the court, there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball.Lins enjoyment to basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lins father moved to U.S., his interest in the sport only grew and he
20、passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, afte
21、r his admission to Harvard, he was offered a place on its college basketball team.During Lins time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1,482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history.When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract,
22、 but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors.At first, playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly,
23、 the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few very difficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up.But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come. Then h
24、is moment arrived on February 4, , on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight. After that, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory.The Associated Press called Lin “the most surprising story in the NBA. Knicks fans developed the nickname for him “linsanity林发疯.

29、 University.BDo you ever wonder why the English have one word for some animals and a different one for their meat？Why do they use pig and pork，cow and beef，and sheep and mutton？To find out，we have to go back to 1066，when the Norman French invaded England and put a French king on the English throne(王
30、位)，which not only changed the government but also changed the language. French became the language of the upper classes of society. And it remained that way for 300 years. Only these high society people could afford to eat meat. As a result，French words like porc(pork) and beouf(beef) came into the
31、English language. However，poor English farmers raised the animals. So the English language retained the words pig and cow from the native AngloSaxon.The Norman French added about 10,000 French words to the English language. Seventyfive percent of them are still in use today. Language experts estimat
32、e that English speakers who have never studied French already know 15,000 French words！Between onethird and twothirds of all English words have French origins. Some words such as possible and avenue are the same in French and English；only the pronunciations change. Other words such as ballet or a la
33、 carte (照菜单点菜) retain their French pronunciations in both languages.In French grammar，nouns have either a male or female gender，so adjectives(形容词) take different forms for each. English has only one adjective that does this，and it came from French. The word blond describes someone with lightcolored
34、hair. Blond is used for men，and blonde describes women. And they are also nouns.Some French words that entered the English language have taken on completely different meanings. The French phrase a la mode means “in styleIn English，the phrase means “with ice creamSomeone must have decided something e
35、aten with ice cream was in style!Now, as you learn English, youre on your way to learning French!46French was once popular among the upper classes of the UK because_.Atoo many French moved to BritainBFrench brought animals with themCthe king and his officials spoke FrenchDthe king allowed French to
36、be spoken47Which word can replace the word “retained in Paragraph 1?Aadopted.Bkept.Cintroduced.Ddeserted.48Why does an English speaker find French easy to learn?ABecause English and French share similar pronunciations.BBecause English grammar and French grammar are similar.CBecause a large number of
37、 English words have French origins.DBecause English has great influences on the French language.49French grammar is distinct from English grammar in that_.Ano words have the same pronunciationsBall words have the same pronunciationsCEnglish nouns have a male or female genderDFrench nouns have differ
38、ent adjective forms50What conclusion can we draw from the text?ALanguage is closely related to history and culture.BFrench and English words have nothing in common.CLanguage is controlled by the upper classes of society.DEnglish combines French and the native AngloSaxon.CThe dyed bun scandal (染色馒头丑闻
39、) deals another blow to shoppers confidence in buying food products, as well as the reputation of local sellers. Li Zhen reports on shoppers reactions in Shanghai.An investigation by the municipal government revealed that Shanghai Shenglu Food Company produced more than 3,000 steamed buns daily. The
40、se were then sold across the city, including large supermarkets such as Hualian, Lianhua and Dia. Fewer steamed buns were for sale at this Lianhua Supermarket. More than 32,000 buns were taken off store shelves when the scandal emerged. Mr. Wang, Sales Manager of Lianhua Supermarket, said, “We remov
41、ed the dyed steamed buns produced by Shenglu as soon as we learned of the incident. We gave customers who had bought the steamed buns from our outlets refunds with their receipts. Despite the scandal, our sales volume has been fine so far.However, most customers we met remained concerned about food
42、safety. Steamed buns are a regular breakfast food for Ms. Gao. She used to buy them mostly from supermarkets because she felt it was in a clean and safe environment. But now, she has second thoughts about buying the popular snack.Ms. Gao, Shanghai shopper, said, “I cant believe that even steamed bun
43、s from the supermarkets are no longer safe. The only places I trusted to shop at were major supermarkets and specialist shops. But now even there, product quality cannot be guaranteed. I really dont know where to buy my goods from in the future.Shoppers at supermarkets who still bought steamed buns
44、said they had few options. “I feel like giving up supermarkets. But I really dont know where to do my food shopping. I cant make these things myself. said Ms. Tang, Shanghai shopper.51.
