No one is born a winner. People make themselves into winners by their own efforts.

I learned this lesson from an experience many years ago. I took the head______job at a school in Baxley, Georgia. It was a small school with a weak football program.

It was a tradition for the schools old team to play against the new team at the end of spring practice. The old team had no coach, and they didn't even______to prepare for the game. Being the coach of the new team, I was______ because I knew we were going to win, but to my disappointment we were defeated (打敗). I couldn't believe I had got into such a situation. Thinking hard about it, I came to realize that my team might not be the number one team in Georgia, but they were depending on me. I had to ______ my attitude about their ability and potential (潛能).

I started doing anything I could to help them build a little pride. Most important, I began to treat them like______.That summer, when the other teams enjoyed their vacations, we met every day and practiced passing and kicking the football.

Six months after being defeated on the spring practice field, we won our first game and our second, and continued to improve. Finally, we ______ the number one team in the state. I felt that it would be a victory for us even if we lost the game. But that wasn't what happened. My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me one of the greatest thrills(興奮,激動) of my life!

From the______I learnt a lot about how the attitude of the leader can offers the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and encouraged them. I helped them to see themselves______, and they built themselves into winners.

任務型閱讀

English is an important global language, but that doesn't mean it's easy to learn. Many experts have tried to make English easier for students to learn- but they weren't always successful.

In 1930, Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850 words(and just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The problem was that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages, but they couldn't understand the answers in "real" English! It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn't in the Basic English word list. For example, if you wanted a watermelon, you asked for "a large green fruit with the form of an egg, which has a sweet red inside and a good taste"!

R.E. Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of English was spelling, so he invented a language called Anglic. Anglic was similar to English, but with much simpler spelling. "Father" became "faadher", "new" became "nue' and "years" became "yeerz". Unfortunately for some students of English, Anglic never became popular.

Even easier is the language which ships' captains use: it's called "Seaspeak". Seaspeak uses a few simple phrases for every possible situation. In Seaspeak, for example, you don't say, "I'm sorry what did you say?" or "I didn't understand, can you repeat that?" It's just "Say again." No more grammar!

In the age of international communication through the Internet, a new form of English might appear. A large number of the world's e-mails are in English and include examples of "NetLingo" like OIC (Oh, I see) and TTYL (Talk to you later).In another fifty years, English might not exist and we will probably all speak fluent "Internetish".

1.Who have tried to make English easier for students to learn?

2.When did Basic English invent?

3.Why did R E.Zachrisson invent Anglic?

4.In"Seaspeak", what do people say "I didn't understand, can you repeat that?"

5.What is the passage mainly about?

閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)短文內容判斷文后句子的正（T）誤（F）。

It was a cold snowy morning after the winter vacation. And it was my first day at my new school. I was walking alone slowly and worrying about lots of things. It was early and there weren't many people on the road. Suddenly a girl who was riding her bike on ice fell down. She was trying hard to get up but fell again. Without thinking, I went over and helped her. She said “thank you” with a smile and then rode away. Her words warmed me a lot.

Finally, I got to school. The teacher led me to the classroom and introduced me to the class. Then he asked me to sit down beside a girl. I felt so nervous that I didn’t dare to look at her. Soon the first class, English, started. Their textbook was different from those in my old school. As I was wondering what to do, an English book appeared in front of me. “Let’s share,” the girl beside me said. “Hi, I’m Carrie.” I looked up. It was the girl I helped that morning. Later on, we became good friends.

From that I learned: to help others is actually to help ourselves!

1.It was early and there were many people on the road.

2.After getting up, the girl rode away without saying a word.
