18、decades. After learning them at the martial arts school in New Mexico State, today he is among the most experienced kung fu teachers of the school.Practicing martial arts two to three hours and helping students improve their skills have become Tokuda' s daily routine. He expects to practice and

19、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," hstarted, I just couldn' t stop. I think itChsnelse thetunagic of”Tokuda was sent to the martial arts school when he was 10. He still remembers ho

20、w unwilling he was when starting out." My father had always wanted to learn Chinese martial artsbut never got the chance, so he put his kid in,wa s soeafaiid at that time because Ithought kung fu was all about fighting.”But things changed after he learned that martial arts were more than punchi

21、ng and kicking.“One of the things martial arts teach me is overcoming adversity,littlTokuda said." Askid, my first lesson was like, oh, look, this is a thing that I can get through by diligence, perseverances （毅力）and dedication, and that was priceless for my life.”Learning Chinese martial arts

22、opened a gateway for him to better understand Chinese culture because he could hear a lot of ancient Chinese kung fu- related stories. " Itis like in America, where we hear stories about knights in shining armor and King Arthur and noble deeds done, said. "I feel martial arts preserve some

23、thing of ancient China that can' t be found in books. _are sort of an oral history.”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.

26、onsiderate.BDear Sir,There is a plan to build a new supermarket on the edge of the Whitefields housing estate （住 宅區(qū)）,on the land where the local library now is. I live at Whitefields, and I would like to express my concern about this plan. It is not that I am completely against the idea of building

27、a supermarket I just think that as a community we need to weigh up the advantages and disadvantages before committing ourselves.It is clear that the library is under-used and in poor condition. It is also clear that there are very few shops near here and a supermarket would be a good thing to have.

28、But the people who want to build the supermarket seem to think that no one wants the library any more, and that it isn ' t a must because of the Internet and so on. Is this necessarily true, especially for elderly people? What about young people who don ' t hInverthet at home and need to go

29、to the library to do their homework? Where can they study if they have to share a room with a younger brother or sister?On the other hand, there is an argument that a new supermarket would not only bring more choice of shopping and more convenience for local people, but it would also bring some much

30、-needed jobs for younger people in the town - and this is a good point. What we need to do is consider the effect a supermarket will have on our quality of life. Certainly local people, including me, will find shopping a lot easier and more convenient. But there will also be extra traffic. In a few

31、years from now, the roads in and around will be full of cars in the daytime and delivery lorries at night, and not only that we will have got used to it, too. Are more jobs and more convenience worth such an influence on our daily lives? Perhaps, but this is what we have to ask ourselves.I believe t

32、hat all the people of Whitefields, and the authority, need to discuss this question in an open-minded way and I hope that by the time a decision is taken, we will have had a full and fair discussion of the issues involved, and that the local authority will have really listened to everyone ' s vi

33、ew. Is that too much to ask?Yours faithfully, Tom Watkins44. The supporters of the supermarket probably think.A. the library is no longer neededB. the library is too poor to be rebuiltC. the supermarket brings down goods priceD. supermarket increases local workers' income45. What does the underl

34、ined "it " in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Shopping convenience.B. Job opportunity.C. Life quality.D. Traffic condition.46. What is the author ' s attitude toward the plan?A. Approving.B. Neutral.C. Negative.D. Confident.47. Why is the letter written?A. To promote effective public reading.B

35、. To call for concern over an urban project.C. To discuss ways of improving life quality.D. To express dissatisfaction with public equipment.CYoung Americans Are Less Wealthy Than Their ParentsThe cost of living in the United States is going up, notes writer Alissa Quartz. As is reportedin New York

36、Post, Quartz points to“the costs of housing, education and health care in particular.At the same time, a new study, the report of which is called“ The Fading American Dream " foundthat half of Americans born in the 1980s are falling behind their parents economically.These findings show that man

37、y younger adults are experiencing “ downwardmobility. 肝other words, they are not doing as well economically as their parents were at the same age. The idea of downward mobility is especially troubling for Americans, writes Robert Samuelson in The Washington Post. He says most U.S. citizens believe t

38、hat, over time, the amount of money they earn will rise and life will get easier.Alissa Quartz wrote a book about the financial difficulties of Americans. In the book, Quartz tells about teachers who are struggling to pay for regular costs. One high school teacher drives for ride sharing servi ce Ub

39、er at night to earn more money. He corrects students pJapers between riders.A college professor turned to government assistance to feed her child and pay for a doctor.Quartz says even lawyers increasingly cannot earn an income that enables them to meet their needs. The problem of decreasing incomes

40、in their field is made worse by debt they may have from law school. Quartz and the economists who studied these issues say many things have led to lower incomes and downward mobility. The economic recession （衰退） of 2007 to 2009 is partly to blame, they say. Modern technology also plays a part. Quart

41、z says robots threaten to reduce the earnings of health care workers, reporters, and people who work at supermarkets, drug stores and tax preparation services. In The Washington Post, Robert Samuelson noted that poor schools, a weak housing industry and too many government rules are also to blame.Wi

42、th all these things, and more, partly responsible, what is the solution? These experts say the answer is complex. But all point to one issue that needs to be examined: economic inequality. Quartz writes that while America is one of the richest countries in the world, it also has one of the biggest d

43、ivides between the wealthy and the poor.The researchers in “ The Fading American Dream make studmilar observation. They say raising GDP will not significantly improve the economic situation of most Americans. A higher GDP may help only those who are already doing well. Instead, the economists say, t

44、he United States could try to repeat something Americans born in the 1940s experienced. As those children grew up, they almost all benefited from a better economy.48.
