A Ron loved basketball. One afternoon on his way to a basketball game, he was walking and dreaming about playing college basketball the following year. As Ron was walking to the game, a car hit him so hard that he was thrown three feet into the air. Ron woke up in a hospital room. When he learned that both his legs were broken, he realized his college basketball dreams were over. Ron did what the doctors told him, but his progress was slow. When he left the hospital, Ron was sent to a health centre for physical treatment. A week after he arrived there, he met Sunny. Sunny was a coach. His legs were paralysed( 瘫痪的) from a skiing accident. Even though he couldn’t move his legs, Sunny coached a basketball team called the Suns. Everyone on the team played from a wheelchair. Sunny invited Ron to join the game. Ron
played badly, but for the first time since the accident, he stopped feeling sorry for himself. After becoming a part of the Suns, Ron improved quickly. Basketball was like medicine for him. And whenever Ron became depressed or angry, Sunny was there to encourage him and help him. The day before Ron left the centre, he had dinner with Sunny. He asked Sunny how he managed to be so generous and cheerful, even with his paralysis. Sunny smiled and said, “It’s really quite simple. When you keep your face to the sun, the shadows ( 阴影) fall behind.” 1 、. What happened to Ron on his way to a basketball game? A. A car hit him. B. He met his coach. C. His doctor called him. D.

Zoos and research centres look after about 160 pandas. Scientists are studying how they live and more baby pandas are born in the zoos. Pandas live in the forests and mountains of Southwest China. They mainly live on bamboo, and each panda needs to eat a lot of bamboo every day. The area of bamboo is becoming smaller for many different reasons, so pandas have less and less land to live on. Pandas don’t have many babies, and baby pandas often die. The situation is becoming very serious. Our government is working hard to save pandas. There are more than 30 nature reserves to protect pandas but these are not enough. The government has made a new plan to help pandas. The nature reserves will be bigger and the bamboo will grow better. Then the pandas will have enough food to eat and enough places to live in. Pandas born in the zoos may go back to live in the nature reserves. Most people love pandas. The panda is one of the best-known animals in the world. It is the symbol for the World Wide Fund for Nature. The WWF works to protect all animals in danger, so the panda has become the symbol of all animals in danger. There is still a long way to go to save the panda. Think of other animals in danger such as tigers, whales, turtles and elephants — we need to save the panda, and we need to save them, too. 4. There are about ______ pandas living in nature reserves today. A. 30
B. 160
C. 300
D. 1,000 5. Paragraph 2 is mainly about ______.
