Maybe your class in school has given a play. People throughout the world like to act in plays. In Japan, actors perform in Kabuki plays. The word “Kabuki” is made up of three Japanese words meaning song, dance and ability.

Kabuki actors do not look like the actors in American plays. American actors dress and look like real people. In Kabuki plays, the actors wear bright-colored robes and wigs. Their robes are very large, and their wigs do not look like real hair.

American actors wear make-up, but their make-up does not often hide their faces. Kabuki actors paint their faces chalk white. They draw black eyebrows above their real eyebrows. They outline their eyes in black or red. Their mouths are bright red. They look as if they are wearing masks.

An actor performing in an American play must make his face look happy, sad or angry. Make –up helps the Kabuki actor show his feelings. If an actor is going to show anger, he paints dark blue or red lines on his face. His make-up makes him look angry.

A Whole new ball game

Last week, millions of Chinese viewers turned into CCTV 5 to watch two teams of men in colourful clothing chase a ball around a field.

But the New England Patriots (愛國者隊(duì)) and Carolina Panthers (黑豹隊(duì)) were not playing soccer--they were competing for American football's greatest prize, the Super Bowl.                        

The first recorded game of American football was played between a Canadian and an American university more than 100 years ago, using a mixture of soccer and rugby (英式橄欖球) rules. The Super Bowl itself was first contested in 1967, but 2004 was the first time the game reached Chinese TV screens.                          

In American football, teams score points by carrying a leather ball into the other team's goal area, known as the end zone. When a team carries the ball into the other side's end zone, this is called a touchdown (達(dá)陣).                         

Players on one team can throw the ball forward to each other or pass it from hand to hand to move up the field, while the other team tries to stop them. Players are allowed to tackle (絆倒) each other to stop the ball from moving. Sometimes this is quite physical so padding (襯墊) and helmets are worn to prevent injury. A touchdown is worth six points, and a further point can be won by kicking the ball between two upright posts. Teams can also kick a field goal (射門得分) during the game for three points. A game is made up of four quarters (節(jié)) each lasting 15 minutes.

American football is very popular because it exhibits a number of athletic skills, such as running, jumping, catching, throwing and kicking. There is also hitting and tackling, which can appear violent sometimes!                         

The best-known league in the United States is the National Football League (NFL), which is made up of 30 teams, and the Super Bowl is its championship game. One of the most famous players is New England star Tom Brady, who was named the Most Valuable Player as his team won the Super Bowl last week. Brady plays in the quarterback (四分衛(wèi)) position, and is the player responsible for throwing the ball to his teammates.

Now the Super Bowl has arrived in China, maybe the game will become just as popular as basketball or soccer!                         o

46. What is the Super Bowl? It is _____.

A. a famous American football award        B. the American football league

C. best-known game in American football    D. a rugby contest

47. What is the highest score a team may get in American football?

A. 10 points.               B. 40 points.                          

C. Less than 40 points.     D. More than 40 points.                        

48. Which of the following can replace the word “violent” at the end of Paragraph 6? m                          

A. Exciting.   B. Bloody.    C. Physical.   D. Unpleasant.                         

—Would you have told Jack the news had it been possible？                         

—Yes. But I      very busy in sending e-mails.                       

A．had been    B．was    C．were     D．would be

A

     It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005．While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work．On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does．After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone．

The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport．Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family．And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品雜貨），saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live．

I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story．Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help．One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up．Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job．It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before．

People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so．This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity（人性）as a whole．And it has influenced（影響）us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others．No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares．And the results can be everlasting．

56．Why was the bike so important to the couple?

       A．The man’s job was bike racing．           B．It was their only possession．

       C．It was a nice Kona 18 speed．              D．They used it for work and daily life．

57．We can infer from the text that ____________．

       A．the couple worked 60 hours a week．    B．people were busy before Christmas

       C．the stranger brought over the bike         D．life was hard for the young family．

58．How did people get to know the couple’s problem?

       A．From radio broadcasts．                     B．From a newspaper．

       C．From TV news．                              D．From a stranger．

59．What do the couple learn from their experience?

       A．Strangers are usually of little help．     B．One should take care of their bike．

       C．News reports make people famous．     D．An act of kindness can mean a lot．
