Mr Smith closed his shop earlier than usual for a very important appointment. He went out into the street and began walking to the bus stop. He was very fat.

He stayed very near him all the time, and he kicked（踢）Mr Smith’s shoes for several times. Mr Smith looked at him angrily each time. After the fourth time, Mr Smith stopped, turned round and said to the small boy, “What are you doing? Stop following me like that! You’re going to hurt my feet.” “I’m sorry, but don’t stop me, please!” the small boy said, “ It’s very hot today and there isn’t any other shade in the street!” If you were the boy, what would you do during such a hot day? 36.

Not football as it is played in most countries, but the kind of football in the United States and Canada. American football is a difficult game to explain. But the basic idea is that each team tries to move the football across the goal line of the other team. One of the rules is that a team must move the ball forward（向前）at least ten yards -- a little less than ten meters -- in four attempts. It loses the ball to the other team if it fails to move that far. One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three attempts, to move the ball forward ten yards. Then the team must take an important decision. One choice is to try a fourth and final time. If the team succeeds, it keeps the ball, and continues to move forward. But if it fails, the other team gets the ball at that place on the field. The second choice is to kick the ball. The team gives up the ball if it makes this choice. But a good kick can put the other team at the far end of the field, making it more difficult for that team to score. People watching a football game are certain to shout their advice. Some will shout, “Kick the ball!” But others will urge the team to take a chance, to live dangerously. “Go for it !” They will shout. 41. “Go for it!” is an expression which comes from a sports game that Picture ____ shows.
42. The second paragraph（段落）mainly tells us about the ______ of the game. A. teams B. fields C. rules 43. A team has ________ choices after three unsuccessful attempts. A. two B. three C. four 44. After four attempts, if a team fails to move the ball forward ten yards, they’ll _____the ball. A. keep B. lose C. kick 45. When people shout “Go for it”, they hope the team chooses to ________. A. kick the ball B. try a fourth time C. give up the ball C Most have heard of the American Prom. This is the senior students’ school leaving party. The British name for the event is a Leavers’ Ball or Leavers’ Dinner, although some UK schools call them Proms, too. In Canada, Ireland and Australia the terms Grad or Formal are most common and in South Africa it is called a Matric Dance. Some Matric Dances in South Africa still follow the old British traditions. Before the dance, pupils are given lessons in dancing. School leavers invite a partner to the dance. The girls have dresses especially made for the event. To save costs the dance is often held in the school hall. American Proms have become elaborate（精心的）and expensive, complete with luxury hotel ballrooms（豪华的酒店舞厅）, live bands and expensive prom dresses. They now include after-Prom activities that often extend into the early morning of the next day. The Leavers’ Ball in the UK is not so formal（正式）. The girls also wear ball gowns and the boys suits. A dinner and disco will be held at a local hotel. Each pupil buys a ticket and can go with a partner or just arrive with friends. 46. We learn from this passage that the Prom is a ________. A. test B. game C. party 47. In Australian, people call “Prom” __________. A. Leavers’ Ball B. Grad or Formal C. Matric Dance 48. The most important activity in the Prom is _____
