第二節(jié):下面文章中有5個段落需要添加首句。請從以下選項(A. B. C. D. E和 F)中選出適合各段落的首句。選項中有一項是多余選項。
A. People will accept defeat easily.
B. Good sportsmanship (運動員精神) brings success.
C. Good sportsmanship brings happiness.
D. People can learn how to manage upsets.
E. Good sportsmanship reminds you of rules.
F. Good sportsmanship makes one responsible.
Should Good Sportsmanship Be Taught in School?
Almost everyone feels that it is important for young people to win fairly and show respect for others. Should good sportsmanship, then, be taught in school? The stronger argument, however, favors teaching good sportsmanship. Presented here are the most important benefits of teaching sportsmanship.
【小題1】________ Having a positive attitude in activities like sports, class elections, and science fair competitions are important to success in school. Activities involving winning or losing can be tense. Acting calmly under pressure helps young adults succeed not only in sports but also in life. Good sportsmanship is not a given; it must be promoted in school. Young people must be directed to role models who practice sportsmanship.
【小題2】________ A person cannot play by the rules if he or she does not understand what the rules are. Many arguments on the playing field could be avoided if athletes understood their responsibilities. This also applies to other activities. If students enter a science fair competition, for example, they must follow the instructions. Additionally, knowledge provides a competitive advantage. Those who understand the rules are much more likely to succeed. In school, for example, success is definitely stressed. When students learn sportsmanship, they discover how the rules related to achievement.
【小題3】_______ Using good sportsmanship helps people stay focused and in control. Almost everyone has overheard a heated argument between a player and a referee(裁判). Good players do not argue with other players, coaches, or officials. They deal with upsets calmly; consequently, they stay in control of their game. Good players focus on achieving. Uncontrolled anger can actually cause a person to make errors. This result is especially embarrassing. Additionally, people can be labeled if they act out their upsets. A good sport is known for his or her positive conduct. Teaching students the consequences of their actions is part of sportsmanship.
【小題4】_______ Good players become skilled at handling responsibility. When people accept responsibility, they achieve their best. Positive thinkers, moreover, influence others, especially those who are struggling with a problem. A gifted basketball player, for example, might teach skills to a less talented player. Helping others raises the performance of the entire team. The team, consequently, could reach new heights and set new records. Good sportsmanship, however, means “owning up” to mistakes as well. Those who do not practice sportsmanship pass off responsibility. For them, if an opportunity is lost, it is someone else’s fault. Imagine a team of players all acting in their own self-interest--- the opposite of what a team really should be. Students who participate in a team, whether a math small-group project or the school band, benefit by learning to accept responsibility and encourage others.
【小題5】_______ Sportsmanship allows people to enjoy victory to the fullest. If people win, but their accomplishments are based on cheating or other immoral behavior, are they really winners? Good players follow the rules. They feel proud even in defeat because their game is based on honesty and respect. Winners congratulate their opponents(對手) as part of recognizing the efforts of others. This friendly behavior spreads goodwill from their team to other teams. Players who show respect for fans, coaches, and other players receive respect in return. They are recognized as leaders. In learning sportsmanship, students explore role models of positive behavior. They learn what it takes to be a leader; they also learn to win and lose with grace(風度).

Americans use the term “college students” to mean students either in colleges or universities. Not only that, Americans almost never say “going off to university” or “when I was in university. ”That sounds British.   【小題1】  
College, university: what’s the difference?   【小題2】 . Both offer undergraduate degrees in the arts and sciences, for example. And both can help prepare young people to earn a living.
But many colleges do not offer graduate studies. Another difference is that universities are generally bigger.   【小題3】 
Another place of higher education, especially in technical areas, is an institute, like the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Yet even an institute of technology can offer a wide choice of programs and activities.
Modern universities developed from those of Europe in the Middle Ages. The word “university” came from the Latin universities, describing a group of people organized for a common purpose.  【小題4】 . In England, colleges were formed to provide students with places to live. Usually each group was studying the same thing. So college came to mean an area of study.
The first American universities divided their studies into a number of areas and called each one a college. This is still true.   【小題5】 . For example, Harvard College is the undergraduate part of Harvard University.
Programs in higher learning can also be called schools, like a school of engineering or a medical school within a college or university. You know, learning all these terms is an education in itself.
A. A college can also be a part of a university.
B. There are more universities than colleges in the USA.
C. They offer more programs and do more research.
D. “College” came from collegium, a Latin word with a similar meaning.
E. Universities and colleges offer students different opportunities.
F. Instead, they say “going off to college” and “when I was in college.”
G. Colleges and universities have many things in common.

Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.

A. Talk slowly.
B. Concentrate on the topic.
C. Express your feelings.
D. Notice the details.
E. Use the best words.
F. Introduce something interesting.
 
【小題1】Generally, good talkers don’t rush into a conversation. They take their time when they think about something and when they say it out loud. They act as if they have all the time in the world. This makes them the center of attention. Try this way of talking and you will create the same effect.
【小題2】People with good conversation skills tend to notice the kind of things that the average person doesn’t notice, and to bring such details into the conversation. They may notice and point out an interesting ring on the other person’s hand, a certain foreign accent, or a certain voice tone they use when saying a name. Thus, such individuals impress people in a very elegant manner. 
【小題3】It’s very rare to meet a person who is comfortably talking about their emotions and how certain things make them feel, especially with strangers. Yet this way of talking is a real virtue. Don’t just present the facts. Keep in mind that it is at the emotional level that people connect best.
【小題4】Anyone can talk about the news or express basic opinions. But good talkers can frequently tell you something you didn’t know and that you’ll find interesting and fascinating. This is why it’s good to have knowledge into fields such as psychology or sociology, and bring such knowledge out at the right moments in a conversation.
【小題5】The ability to talk smoothly has a lot to do with choosing the precise words to convey your feelings or thoughts. Constantly develop your vocabulary and practice communicating as accurately as possible. It will help you develop a way with words and allow you to express yourself more easily.

Amazon Introduces a Digital Music Locker
Amazon.com, plans to introduce a service that will let people upload their digital music to the Web from anywhere.  【小題1】   
The service, known as a music locker, was made available to Amazon account holders early Tuesday.Amazon will offer a Web-based hard drive backup service called Cloud Drive, where people can store documents, photos, videos and music.
It will also offer Cloud Player, which will let people listen to, download and make play lists from the music they store on Cloud Drive from any Web site or from an app on Android devices.Cloud Player will automatically upload songs bought on Amazon.  【小題2】   
   【小題3】  One key difference is that Google and Apple reportedly want to automatically make all the music that a user owns available to stream on other instruments, while Amazon will require that people upload music, except songs they buy on Amazon, to access it elsewhere.
The dream of these companies, along with many start-ups, is for people to be able to listen to their music from any computer or phone.  【小題4】  Several experts in digital music say that the music locker business is still legally ambiguous.  【小題5】   
Amazon says it has avoided the problem, because its users would upload their songs, in MP3 to the cloud-based service, just like backing them up on an external (outside) hard drive or a Web-based computer backup service.
Companies, including Google and Spotify have been forced to delay introducing certain services while they negotiate with the music labels and publishers.

A.People can access it from any computer and from Android phones.
B.But they have all run into the same problem: music companies and publishers would prefer that listeners buy a new copy of a song everywhere they want to listen to it.
C.Experts suspect that Amazon seems to be copying what Google and Apple have already achieved.
D.They agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity (匿名) because their agreements with Amazon are confidential.
E.It is impossible for Web companies to tell whether a song was bought legally or downloaded illegally.
F.Amazon is racing Google and Apple, both of which are interested in offering similar services.
G.It will also scan iTunes or Windows libraries to find other music to upload.
