(A)
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) and Carolina Panthers (黑豹隊) 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) 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) 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.

Anchors on China Central Television (CCTV) will need to do some fast talking to replace the popular English acronyms(首字母縮略詞) they’re now banned from using. Shanghai Daily reports that “anchors at China Central Television [CCTV] have been banned from saying the English acronyms NBA, CBA, GDP, and the like in their programs.”
The replacement for those handy acronyms? Chinese presenters must use the full Chinese name, standardized by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.
Although CCTV (oops, we mean China Central Television) presenters must already have a score of at least 94 in their government-rated oral Mandarin proficiency exam, saying the full name of organizations like the CBA or WTO ― 10 and 6 character’s long separately ― is sure to challenge even the most skillful anchors. CCTV sports anchor Sun Zhengping tells Shanghai Daily, “A full Chinese explanation of the English initials must be followed if my tongue slips. It is a little trouble but a necessary one because not every audience member can understand the initials.”
Although the government isn’t giving any official explanation for the shift, it is believed to have to do with a proposal by Huang Youyi, director of the China International Publishing Group, at March’s NPC meeting. In his speech, Huang said, “With more and more publications mixing Chinese with English, measures and regulations should be adopted to avoid English invading Chinese. If we don’t pay attention and don’t take measures to stop the expansion of mixing Chinese with English, Chinese won’t be a pure language in a couple of years.”
Although China is far from the first country to take measures to protect local languages (the French and Québécois beat them to it by a long way), acronyms are more about saving time than they are about corrupting a language, we would think. Good luck to the CCTV anchors.
1.CCTV anchors have to “do some fast talking” because they can no longer ______.
A. speak as slowly as they like B. mix English into Chinese
C. use shortened Chinese expressions D. have so much time for their program
2.According the writer, “CBA” is supposed to be replaced with “______” by CCTV anchors.
A. 中國男子籃球甲級聯賽 B. 中國籃球協會全國男女籃球職業聯賽
C. 中國籃球聯賽 D. The Chinese Basketball Association
3.When Sun Zhengping said “if my tongue slips”, he meant “if I _____”.
A. habitually use an English acronym B. speak a little bit too fast
C. make a mistake in pronunciation D. say something impolite or improper
4.What’s Huang Youyi’s proposal?
A. Using full English names instead of short forms.
B. Translating Chinese terms into proper English.
C. Avoiding Chinese words mixing into English.
D. Keeping our mother tongue as a pure language.
5.What’s the main idea of the last paragraph？
A. China has fallen behind in the matter. B. The ban is not necessary.
C. Chinese shouldn’t be corrupted. D. CCTV anchors will have a hard time.
