The 14-year-old will spend a week in Florida being trained by professional coaches. Mendoza said he wants to thank his family, who’ve always supported his dream. “Everyone is behind me. I want to make their lives better because of what they’ve done for me,” he said. Mendoza’s ultimate goal is to play the sport professionally. “That’s the main goal right now, that’s on my bucket list. The best thing that could ever happen to me is getting into the NBA,” Mendoza said. The teenager’s journey to Orlando, Florida, began several months ago. He was initially selected to represent the UK at a training camp in Slovenia. He competed against people of his age from all over Europe. The camp’s top 10 players were then invited to represent Team Europe in Florida. “They tested my skills to the max,” Mendoza said. Mendoza will now face off against the best players in his age group from around the world. During his trip to Florida, the 14-year-old will receive guidance from qualified NBA coaches. His hope is to make enough of an impact so that potential talent scouts (球探) will keep track of his development. The NBA hopes to grow the game in Europe and around the world with the aim of attracting new viewers, players and investors. Neal Meyer, the NBA’s associate vice president of basketball operations, says European countries also stand to profit from the game’s spread. “Working with our organization, maybe they get top national team players and we get a future star of the NBA from one of these ３ ３ countries,” he said. There are just two British players currently plying (从事) their trade in the world’s top basketball league. The head of British basketball recently told Newsbeat that her aim is to have 40 homegrown players playing in the NBA. Mendoza says he wants to lead the charge for UK players heading to the US. “The hard work starts now. I’m going to train, train, train - really push myself. This is where the hard work begins,” he said. 5. What will Mendoza do in Florida? A. Have an interview for a basketball camp . B. Go sightseeing at the NBA center. C.

C When I was 12 years old, I knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town. But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone. Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me. After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen ４ ４ novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day. Kindness saved me when I needed help the most.

It’s true that stress isn’t good for you, but it’s not going to turn you into a silver fox just yet. In fact, the answer comes from the cells in your hair. These are what determine the color and, eventually, the fade to grey. Most of us start to notice our first grey hairs by the time we hit our thirties. A general rule to go by is that by the age of 50, half of the population will have lost the color in 50 percent of their hair. But why does it happen? Firstly, we need to understand how hair gets its color. Your hair is made up of cells called melanocytes (黑色素细胞) which produce pigments (色素) as they grow into the hair fiber. There are two different types of melanins (黑色素): eumelanins (真 黑色素) and pheomelanins (类黑色素). The former produces black and brown pigments, while the latter produces red and yellow pigments. The exact amount of these pigments determines whether a person has black, brown, blonde or red hair. As we age, the ability of the melanocytes to produce more pigments weakens. That’s because our hair grows in different phases.５ ５ The growing phase lasts between three and five years, after which our follicles (毛囊) turn off for about three months to rest and get ready to grow more hairs. This goes round and round and, after a time, our bodies aren’t as good at producing new hairs. Scientists are continuing to try and find ways to prevent greying hair. A team of scientists in France is working to try and stop the melanocytes from being damaged at the end of each hair cycle. They are trying to use a special enzyme (酶) to protect the cells from damage. If successful, it could lead the way for new products that keep our locks full of color for years to come. 13. What does the phrase “an old wives’ tale” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. an incorrect belief B. useless talk C. a scientific rule D. helpful experience 14. What do we know about red hair? A. It doesn’t turn grey as people get older. B. It contains more pheomelanins than melanins. C. The amount of pigments in it doesn’t change over time. D. People with red hair have weaker ability to produce pigments. 15. What can we infer from the article? A. Grey hair has nothing to do with stress. B. Grey hair is a symbol of declining health. C. It takes three months for new hair to grow. D. The growth and color change of hair depend on cells. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分,满分 10 分） 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The benefits of keeping a journal If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal.

Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. 16 Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal. ◆ It prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 17 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible.

Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today. ◆ It helps you expand your ideas.
