四、阅读理解 A
Ray Tokuda, a 54-year-old Japanese American, takes pride in the title his school has already given him. He is a Shifu, a Chinese word literally meaning a master, mentor or senior practioner of martial arts.
Surely, he has reason to be proud. He has been involved with Chinese martial arts for almost 40 years. After learning them at the martial arts school in New Mexico State,
he is among the most experienced kung fu teachers of the school today.
Practicing martial arts two to three hours and helping students improve their skills have become Tokuda’s daily routine. He expects to practice and teach martial arts for the rest of his life. “I’m still learning. It’s worth more than a lifetime to learn Chinese martial arts,” he said. “Once I started, I just couldn’t stop. I think it’s also the magic of Chinese culture.”
Tokuda was sent to the martial arts school when he was 10. He still remembers how unwilling he was when starting out. “ I remember my father had
always wanted to learn Chinese martial arts but never got the chance, so he put
his kid in,” he said. “I was so afraid at that time because I thought kung fu was all about fighting.”
But things changed after he learned that martial arts were more than punching and kicking.
“One of the things martial arts teach me is to overcome adversity,” Tokuda said. “As a little kid, my first lesson was like, oh, look, this is a thing that I can get through by diligence, perseverance(毅力)and dedication, and that was priceless for my life. ”
Learning Chinese martial arts opened a gateway for him to better understand the culture of China.
Meanwhile, Tokuda has also been invited to various events in his home state to showcase traditional Chinese culture, including the dragon dance and lion dance, which he also learnt at the martial arts school. Because of this, he is now considered a cultural envoy (使者) in the eyes of the public.

阅读理解 B
For hundreds of years, researchers have been trying to answer what kinds of things have an impact on people’s emotions(情感). How you feel is controlled by many things. Your emotions can be influenced by your personality, by the actions of others and by events around you. In addition, maybe you really don’t know your emotions can be affected by the weather as well.
People often say they feel pretty good when the sun is shining and bad when it is cloudy.
As a matter of fact, sunlight makes us feel good. When sunlight shins our skins, our bodies produce a vitamin. Vitamins are natural chemicals (化学物质) which we all need to stay healthy. Sunlight helps our bodies produce vitamin D and it can help our bodies to make a special chemical. This special chemical affects our brains(大脑)and makes us feel happy.
For example, there are long, dark winters of little sunlight in Sweden and Norway, so many people in these countries often feel sad. Without much sunlight, their bodies produce less vitamin D. Without enough vitamin D, their bodies make less of this special chemical which makes them feel good.
In order to help the people in these countries feel better, special “sunrooms” with artificial(人造的)lights have been built. People can go there and get “sunlight” for an hour or two!
The weather can also affect people’s emotions in other ways. Hot weather can make people angry because people feel uncomfortable when they are hot. In the same way, rain can make people angry because being wet can be unpleasant. As you can see, the
weather can have an effect on the chemicals which control our brains. Through these ways, the weather can influence our emotions. Sadly, while the weather can change us, we can hardly change the weather.
4. Which of the following is true about vitamin D according to the passage?
A. It is a kind of artificial chemical made by scientists.
B. It makes us worried by affecting our brains.
C. It is needed by us all to keep fit.
D. It is in the sunlight.
5. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. We feel good when we are in the bright cool weather.
B. We will be happy when we are caught in the bad weather.
C. All people in Norway and Sweden feel sad in winter.
D. The more vitamin D you have, the happier you’ll be.
6. What may be the best title for this passage?
A. Why Do We Feel Sad?
B. The Weather Influences People’s Emotions
C. People Need More Vitamin D
D. We Can Hardly Change the Weather
