Steve Nash enjoys team success far more than personal success, and always wants to share the glory and the joy with teammates.
He is a self-effacing (不愛出風(fēng)頭的) Canadian, who
grew up in hockey country. Today Steve Nash has to stand alone even if he
doesn’t enjoy it. The
31-year old Nash was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the NBA on May 8, 2005. “It’s unbelievable,” he said．“It’s been a long road for me and I really enjoy playing as a team, just trying to be a good teammate. That is the only way for me to highlight what I do as a basketball player.”
It is the first time a Canadian
has won any individual NBA honor. Of the 50 winners of the MVP award, only six
have been guards: Steve Nash, Magic Johnson, Oscar Robertson, Michael Jordan,
Allen Iverson, and Bob Cousy. “I’m happy for him getting the MVP, which makes
us feel like we all got the MVP,” said
He may be the only one who truly believes he can reach this level. “I always try to set goals for myself and have my own time frame to accomplish them and I never give up on anything,” he said．It is not as if Nash arrived at this point without countless hours of hard work.
His interests go far beyond sports
and the NBA．His social conscience is such that he wore a T-shirt
bearing an anti-war slogan at the NBA all-star weekend festivities in
“A lot of great moments are when you win games with your teammates. There’s nothing like sharing something with someone else,” he said．“There is a pinnacle (頂點) of a player’s career individually. In many ways, the pinnacle of a player’s career really is defined by team wins.”
56．What does Steve Nash mean by saying the last two sentences?
A．A player’s success is decided by his / her individual efforts.
B．A player won’t succeed without a team’s support.
C．A player will succeed sooner or later.
D．A team always decides a player’s success.
57．Steve Nash feels happiest _______.
A．when he is named the Most Valuable Player of the NBA
B．when he is 30 years old
C．when he plays at the NBA all-star weekend festivities
D．when his team wins a game
58．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Nash is an American basketball player.
B．Nash is better at basketball than Magic Johnson.
C．Nash is the first Canadian winner of the MVP award.
D．Michael Jordan is the best of the six guards.
59．Which of the following is the main message that the passage wants to express?
A．Nash prefers team honor to personal honor.
B．Hard work will lead to the honor of the MVP of the NBA.
C．A Canadian can be an MVP of the NBA.
D．Setting goals is of importance to success.

Like most people, I’ve long understood that I will be judged by my occupation, that my profession is a standard people use to see how smart or talented I am. Recently, however, I was disappointed to see that it also decides how I’m treated as a person.
Last year I left a professional position as a small-town reporter and took a job waiting tables. As someone paid to serve food to people. I had customers say and do things to me I suspect they’d never say or do to their most casual acquaintances（泛泛之交. One night a man talking on his cell phone waved me away, then beckoned (示意) me back with his finger minute later, complaining he was ready to order and asking where I’d been.
I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like a peon (勤雜工) plenty of people. But at 19 years old, I believed I deserved inferior（較差的)treatment from professional adults. Besides, people responded to me differently after I told them I was in college. Customers would joke that one day I’d be sitting at their table, waiting to be served.
Once I graduated, I took a job at a community newspaper. From my first day, I heard a respectful tone from everyone who called me. I assumed this was the way the professional world worked .
I soon found out differently. I sat several feet away from an advertising sales representative with a similar name. Our calls would often get mixed up and someone asking for Kristen would be transferred to Christie. The mistake was immediately evident. Perhaps it was because money was involved, but people used a tone with Kristen that they never used with me.
My job title made people treat me politely. So it was a shock to return to the restaurant industry.
It’s no secret that there’s a lot to put up with when waiting tables, and fortunately, much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips. The service industry, by definition, exists to satisfy to others’ needs. Still, it seemed that many of my customers didn’t get the difference between server and servant.
I’m now applying to graduated school, which means someday I’ll return to a profession where people need to be nice to me in order to get what they want, I think I’ll take them to dinner first, and see how they treat someone whose only job is to serve them.
64. The author was disappointed to find that ____ ___.
A. one’s position is used as a standard to measure one’s intelligence
B. talented people like her should fail to get a respectable job
C. one’s occupation affects the way one is treated as a person
D. professionals tend to look down upon manual waitresses
65. What does the author intend to say by the example in the second paragraph?
A. Some customers simply show no respect to those who serve them.
B. People absorbed in a phone conversation tend to be absent-minded.
C. Waitresses are often treated by customers as casual acquaintances.
D. Some customers like to complain because of the waitress’ poor service.
66. How did the author feel when waiting tables at the age of 19?
A. She felt it unfair to be treated as a mere servant by professional.
B. She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded her as a peon.
C. She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her.
D. She found it natural for professionals to treat her as inferior.
67. The underlined sentence “many of my customers didn’t get the difference between server and servant” in Paragraph 7 means “ ”.
A. those who satisfy others’ needs are sure to be looked down upon.
B. those working in the service industry shouldn’t be treated as servants.
C. those serving others have to put up with rough treatment to earn a living.
D. the majority of customers tend to look on a servant as server nowadays.

The North and South poles are remote and freezing places that receive lots of animal visitors but few human tourists.
But even if you never plan to visit the polar bears in the north or penguins in the south, now is a perfect time to start thinking about them. That’s because 2007 marks the beginning of the International Polar Year (IPY), a two-year-old activity of science projects that aim to show how important the poles are to the health of our planet. During the IPY, which will last until March 2009, thousands of researchers from more than 60 countries will conduct more than 200 projects and expeditions to both the top and bottom of the world.
In recent years, the polar regions have begun to change severely as a result of global warming. Temperatures there are rising faster than anywhere else on Earth. As a result, the ice and snow in these regions are melting at record-setting rates. One result is that sea levels are rising around the world, putting animals and people at risk.
Only by studying the poles, say IPY researchers, can we find ways to protect them and ourselves.
Both the

One possible version:
Being a Popular Student
We all hope to be popular
with our classmates and teachers. To enjoy popularity, we are supposed to regard the class as our big family and even offer to sacrifice our personal interests whenever
necessary. While taking an active part in all our class activities, we should work responsibly to build up a good reputation as a team.
To be students with high popularity, we are to show respect, concern and sympathy for others. As a result, we never hesitate to lend a hand to those in need.
To be a popular student, we ought to be strict with ourselves in everything we do at school and make every effort to achieve all-round development, being good not only at our lessons but also at sports, music, painting, social services and so on. In time of success we remain modest, while in time of difficulty we keep strong-minded.
All in all, popularity among classmates and teachers comes naturally to those who keep improving their personal qualities.
