Tiffany, a 16-year-old girl, was very, shy. Last
September, her best friend, Sophie, moved abroad with her family because she
had to continue her studies in America. She even said she would not come back
for at least a few years. Tiffany became???? 75????? and helpless.'
I was really sad the moment I heard the bad news and I didn't know what to
do," Tiffany recalled ( 回 憶 ). "I??? 76??? ?myself in my room for a??? whole week. It was then that my aunt took
me to a sports club one Saturday and I saw so many young people playing various
sports there.
I signed up for a beginners'
course in volleyball and since then I have been playing this sport. Now I
practise twice a week there. It is wonderful playing sports in this club and I have made lots of ?????????????????????????????????????????????? 77 ?????
as well. What's more, I feel I am much healthier than before."
?
The most
basic aim of playing sports is that you can improve your health even if you are
not very good at sports.??????? 78??????? you can get to know a circle of
people at your age while playing sports. Tiffany used to be a very quiet girl.
Since she joined the sports club, she has opened up herself and now she has
become very 79 and enjoys meeting and talking with others.
For most
people, that is one of the attractions of joining a sports club. You can get to
know other? young people who have similar
interests. You don't have to sit down and talk to strangers. You go in for
sports and it is easier to understand your partners on the same team.
Now
Tiffany is quite????? 80????? her friends and she has also gained
more confidence. Try to do sports. The mind exercise as well as the body.

The advantages and

In the early days, using a computer was very hard because of its
large size. Douglas Engelbart, a researcher who worked? in Silicon Valley,? wanted to find a way to make? using ?computers (81)e ????????????????????????????????????????????? . In 1963, he invented the first computer mouse.
Nowadays, a computer mouse is a standard part of a computer. It is (82)u ?????????? to
tell a computer what to do. It got its name because the wire coming out of the
end of the first computer mouse reminded people of the (83)t ???? of a
real mouse. Many mice today are wireless and run on batteries.
The user can move the mouse to move the cursor (指針) shown on the screen in the same direction. If

there is something on the screen that the user wants to (84)c ??????????? ,
he can move, the cursor over it and click the left button of the mouse. The right button is used to open menus. Most computer mice have

D.?? Answer the questions (共12分)
?
Recently,
I needed to find a book for one of my classmates at the university, but 1 didn't
know if the university library had it in their collection, so I went to the
library Website and searched for the book online. You can search the library
database(數(shù)據(jù)庫(kù)) either by subject, title, or
author, and the Website will tell you if the book is returned or borrowed by
another person.
Luckily,
the book I wanted was still there, so I went to the library the next day and
found it on the shelves using the library catalog(目錄) number. I then went to the librarians' desk and borrowed the book
using my university ID card. Usually, students and teachers can keep books for
at most one month, and you can renew (續(xù)借) them if
you still want to read them. If you return them after that, then they are
overdue(過(guò)期的), and You have to pay a late
fee. If you lose a book, then you have to pay the cost to replace it. I often
use the library and borrow books instead of buying them if I can. Borrowing
books can save you money in
the end.

know if the university library had it in their collection, did he?
