I bought a jasmine plant for my office. When I bought it， I was told it would bloom[开花] and the sweet smell would fill my office. I had the plant for two months， and every day I looked at it， but there werent any flowers or pleasant smell. I was not happy， so I gave the plant to my friend Linda.

One day， another friend Mary called and invited me to her office. When I walked in， her jasmine flowers surprised me. I reached out to touch the flowers. Mary cut some and gave them to me. I couldnt help smelling them. Surrounded by the sweet smell of only a handful of these flowers， I suddenly understood something.

Mary bought her plant the same time I did. It took a year for her jasmine to bloom. I was so impatient for mine to bloom； regretfully， I gave it away.

In a way my life is like the jasmine plant. I need to be patient and let things happen.

Last Sunday Linda told me that she was going abroad the next week. Before she left， she returned the plant to me. This time I am going to wait. I have learned that when we want something in our life， we have to be patient. I am slowly learning to have that patience to wait for my jasmine to bloom.

A. one day B. one year C. two weeks D. two months

Assertiveness is the ability to confidently express your opinions， feelings， attitudes， and rights， in a way that doesnt infringe[侵犯] the rights of others.

Many of us are taught that it is not nice to consider our own needs above those of others. If someone says or does something that we dont like， we should just be quiet and try to stay away from that person in the future.

Why is Assertiveness important？

If you dont know how to be assertive， you might experience：

Depression Anger， a sense of being helpless， hopeless， or of having no control over your life.

Resentment-Anger at others for taking advantage of you.

Frustration-Why did I allow that to happen？

Most people find it easier to be assertive in some situations than in others. This makes perfect sense. Its a lot easier to hold your ground with a stranger than with someone you love. But the more important the relationship is to you， the more important it is to be assertive. Assertive behavior leads to increased respect from others！

But before you decide to act assertively， you have to decide if you can live with the results. Although assertive behavior usually will result in a positive response[积极的回应]， some people might react differently.

How to be effectively[有效地] assertive：

Use“I” statements. Keep the focus on the problem youre having. “Id like to be able to tell my stories without interruption.” instead of“Youre always interrupting my stories！”

Use facts， not opinions. “Did you know that shirt has a hole？” instead of “Youre not going out looking like THAT， are you？”

Express ownership of your thoughts， feelings， and opinions. “I get angry when he breaks his promises.” instead of “He makes me angry. ”

Make clear and direct requirements. Dont invite the person to say no. “Will you please？” instead of “Would you mind…？”or“Why dont you…？”

Keep repeating your point. Use a low level and pleasant voice. Dont try to explain yourself.

52. The writer probably agrees that____________.

A. you should consider others response before you act assertively

B. you should be assertive if you want to get good marks

C. assertiveness is the ability to infringe others rights

D. assertive behavior will bring you bad feelings

53. The expression “hold your ground”probably means “_________________”

A. reach an agreement

B. insist on your point

C. keep your word

D. keep on fighting

54. Which of the following helps you to be effectively assertive？

A. Explaining yourself in a soft and sweet voice.

B. Expressing ownership of others thoughts.

C. Making requirements directly and clearly.

D. Using your opinions instead of facts.

D

The willful blindness in hockey toward concussions[头部撞击] has dropped. Hockey Canada has followed the lead of USA Hockey in preventing bodychecking[身体拦截] below age 13. A bad head injury of Sidney Crosby， the hockeys greatest star， opened the eyes of hockey people everywhere. This countrys children have been facing similar danger at early ages， and Hockey Canada had to deal with a deep worry in the minds of Canadians to make the rule change. The liking for bodychecking from an early age is part of what makes Canadian hockey what it is.

The change in rules should be taken as a chance to draw special attention to skill development in an environment free of danger. It may also control the loss of thousands of young players who dont enjoy that environment.

For years， many Canadian hockey parents and coaches have insisted that bodychecking at early ages is necessary to ensure that players can do it safely at older ages. True or not， there may be a safer way to teach hitting than to make younger players pay a price for it in head injuries. When USA Hockey changed its rules for the 2011-2012 season， it also created bodychecking-education programs that will be mandatory[强制的] for all coaches， including those teaching players in the pre-checking ages. And it began to encourage more “touch”-without real bodychecking-from 9 to 12. It also made the rules for 13 and up stricter. The USA is trying to show that its possible to teach hockey protective skills without putting11 and 12-year-olds in greater danger. Its worth the try.

Hockey Canada has taken serious steps to do away with hits on the head. However， its hard to change a sports culture so connected with who we are as a country. Too often， bodychecking has been used to try to separate a player from his head rather than from the ball. Children were paying a price for this countrys love of the game.

There are always changes in Canadas game， and the change in the bodychecking age sends the clearest message yet to coaches and parents that player safety is paramount[至上的] in the game.

55. We can tell that the problem of bodychecking in Canada____________.

A. is controlled strictly

B. is taken more seriously now

C. is caused by players carelessness

D. is connected with players interest

56. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 2？

A. The safe ways of controlling the loss.

B. The steps of drawing special attention.

C. The possible results of changing the rules.

D. The methods of improving the environment.

57. What can we learn from the passage？

A. The USA found a safer way to teach bodychecking.

B. Bodychecking-education programs in the USA are successful.

C. Bodychecking is a good way to value players skills in the USA.

D. The USA has tried to create an environment of less bodychecking.

58. What is probably the best title for this passage？

A. Which is more important？

B. How do we change the rules？

C. Why is hockey a dangerous game？

D. When should bodychecking be prevented？
