Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Montgomery County Special Olympics held its eighth yearly show of unified (联合的) basketball at Blessed Sacrament School.The gym was filled with cheerleaders (啦啦队队员),parents and friends.The walls were covered with posters made by thirdand fourthgraders at the school.And all the elementary,middle and high school unified teams were playing hard and having fun.Every basket,no matter which team scores,is cheered and celebrated.
Special Olympics support more than 20 unified games.What are unified games?They are programs designed for players with special needs.In the games,they play with kids who are volunteers,called unified partners.The special athletes are unable to play normally like other healthy kids,and some of them are wheelchair (轮椅) users.In basketball,the unified partners rebound (抢得篮板球),pass and sometimes push a special athlete’s wheelchair.As Brian Ross,a seventhgrader at St.Albans School in Washington,says,“You just try to help and get everyone to take part.”
Some special athletes have come a long way to be where they are.Caleb Head is a 15yearold special athlete.When he started,Caleb would only stand at the door and watch.Then Caleb began to practice his shooting but still would not play in the games.Now Caleb runs up and down looking for his shot.
The special athletes are not the only ones who benefit (受益) from unified sports;the unified partners do,too.Marla Grusin,whose son Tyler is a special athlete,says every kid should come to a Special Olympics game.If they do,they will learn “to share the ball” and that the game “is not all about me”.
Not a bad lesson for any athlete.

As a little girl,one of my favorite family traditions was held on the first day of May.Along with my sister,my mother and I would make simple flower baskets by making paper into cones (圆锥形):Then,we filled the bottom of the cone with small candies before putting some flowers into it.
With our May Day baskets in hand,my sister and I became anonymous_giftgivers.After hanging a basket on the front door of a neighbor or friend,we rang the doorbell and ran away.The goal was to remain secret givers.
Historically,the first day of May,often referred to as “May Day,” has been recognized as a celebration of spring,of life and growth.Parades (游行) and dances are ways that the day has been—and continues to be—celebrated in many parts of the world.Although formal May Day celebrations may be less common now,it is always worth celebrating.Here are some simple and lovely ways to celebrate May Day in our homes and with those we love:
Making a May Day basket is always a great choice.Although the May Day basket we made as children was simple,the making of the basket was a joy in itself.Consider making or buying some flowers for friends.Fill the basket with a few sweets and write a note thanking your friend or neighbor for their kindness,their presence,and their love.
On May Day,we also take flowers to a local hospital or nursing home.Flowers are always welcome in places that are too often full of sadness.Stopping to have a conversation with a patient and thanking a nurse would be an additional gift—to the receiver and to us!
Besides,we always give friends small gifts to celebrate May Day.A small book or magazine with a note,an art print celebrating spring—the choices are endless.When your friends are far away,an unexpected gift can reawaken friendship across the miles.

People need to relax and enjoy themselves.One way they can have a good time is to watch a baseball game or another sports event.Even thousands of years ago,groups of people gathered to watch skilled athletes (运动员).
Over 2,000 years ago in Greece,certain days in the year were festival days.These were holidays when people stopped work and enjoyed themselves.They liked to watch athletes take part in races and other games of skill.
The most important festival was held every four years at the town of Olympia.It was held in honour of the Greek god Zeus.For five days,athletes from all parts of the Greek world took part in the Olympic Games.At the Olympic Games,people could watch them box,run,jump and so on.There was a relay race between two teams of men in which a lighted torch (火炬) was passed from runner to runner.The Olympic Games were thought to be so important that cities which were at war with one another had to stop fighting.People were allowed to travel to the games freely.Thousands of people came to Olympia from cities in Greece and from its colonies (殖民地) in Africa,Asia and Italy.They met as friends to cheer their favourite athletes and to enjoy themselves.
