I was twelve years old, in the seventh grade, and I had tried out for the junior high school basketball team. I walked into the gym; there was a piece of paper on the wall. It was a cut list. The boys whose names were on the list were welcome to keep on coming to practices. The boys whose names were not on the list had been cut; their presence (出席) was no longer desired. I had not known the cut was coming that day. I stood and stared at the list The list had not been made with a great deal of consideration; the names of the very best players were at the top, and the other members of the team were listed in what appeared to be a descending (下降) order of basketball skills. I kept looking at the bottom of the list, hoping against hope that my name would appear if I looked hard enough. I held myself together as I walked out, but when I got home I began to cry. For the first time in my life, I had been told officially that I wasn’t good enough. Sports meant everything to boys that age; if you were on the team, it put you in the desirable group. If you were not, you might as well not be alive. All these years later, I remember it as if I were still standing right there in the gym. I don’t know how the mind works in matters like this; I don’t know what went on in my head following that day of cut But I know that my determination has been so strong ever since then; I know that for all of my life kince that day. I have done more work than I had to be doing, put in more hours than I had to be spending. I don’t know if all of that came from a determination never to allow myself to be cut again 一 never to allow someone to tell me that I’m not good enough againbut I know itJs there. J^nd clearly it’s there in a lot of other successful men too... 56.From the text we learn that the cut list had names of pupils ____. [A] who were still in the team [B] who were the old players [C] who were hard-working [D] who were too young to play 57.Why do you think the author acted so strongly about the cut? [A] It forced him to change the team. [B] It listed his name at the bottom. [C] It was open to the public. [D] It hurt his pride. 58.We may infer from the text that the author ____. [A] has learned to play basketball very well [B] has made friends with many other men [C] has never learned the truth of the cut [D] has become quite successful in life
59.The underlined word“it”in the last paragraph refers to ____. [A] the determination of never being left behind [B] the memory of being considered a weak boy [C] the decision of never playing basketball again [D] the experience of being cut from a sports team 56-59 ADDA 第三部分 阅读理解 第二篇 Text 2 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的[A]、[B]、[C]和[D]四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡 上将该项涂黑。 Lee Lok Sze was the first woman in Hong Kong to reach both the North and South Poles.

So they started cutting their meat and vegetables intosmall pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cookedfaster and they saved their fuel.
