Do you think hard work can make anything possible? If you don’t, you may want to read the book We Can Do written by Moshe Kai Cavalin. It might change your mind.
Moshe Kai Cavalin is a 14-year-old American boy. He is about to graduate from UCLA (University of California at Los Angeles) this year. Before that, he had already gotten a degree (学位) from East Los Angeles Community College in 2009.
Recently, Cavalin published (出版) the book We Can Do. In this book, he talks about how to achieve things we want, by keeping yourself focused (专心的) and trying your best to do everything. He says this doesn’t need genius (天才), just hard work.
Cavalin says being called a genius “has always bothered (使烦恼) me… People need to know they don’t have to be geniuses; they just need to work hard and they can achieve anything. If I can reach the stars, others can reach the Milky Way(银河，天河）.”
The idea of writing a book came from a teacher named Richard Avila at his first college. Cavalin says Avila inspired (启发) him to write a book to explain how he succeeded, so he could inspire other people.
It took Cavalin four years to finish the book. Because his mother is Chinese, she wanted to publish the book in Chinese. So Cavalin translated the book into Chinese by himself. The book did well in Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia.
According to the passage, we know that _____.

Cavalin owes (归功于) his success to the following EXCEPT that _____.

Cavalin says “If I can reach the stars, others can reach the Milky Way” to _____.

Which of the following is TRUE about the book We Can Do?

Did Calvalin translate the book into Chinese with the help of his mother?

How do you spend a usual holiday at home? My alarm clock wakes me, which reminds me of school. I usually would sleep like a log, but today is a holiday and I have to be at the pool for swimming practice at a quarter to seven. About 30 swimmers show up for practice. An hour later, I ride my bike home. The suburbs(郊区) are quiet in the morning, with few cars on the street.
I know I should be studying German but instead I wander(游荡)to my room, lie down on the bed and sleep like a log. When I open my eyes again, the first thing I see is the alarm clock. It’s 10:40 and I have a basketball class in less than 20 minutes. With the help of a shortcut(捷径) I arrive on time. About 15 kids and I spend the rest of the morning “shooting hoops(圈)”.
A bus takes us home，and I see a neighbour walking her dogs. It’s past noon. Lunch is “dousha baozi”(豆沙包子)，which my younger brother Richard doesn’t eat. He devours(吞食) part of a cake from the fridge. I wonder if I should practise on the keyboard, study German, finish my homework, play chess，read or sleep like a log. I decide to play computer games for an hour and promise myself that I’ll work on German later.
As the computer games hit higher and higher levels, Richard and I become more and more bored. He has been aching for(渴望) someone his own age to play with, and I write , he is dozing. He is too sleepy.
I think I’ll turn off this computer and take him to the park. Then maybe I’ll call on some of my old classmates.
Holidays can be a time to learn, a time to play, a time to grow or a time to sleep like a log. Whatever you choose to do with your time, do something that you’ll remember!
What did the writer NOT do during the day?

When did the writer’s basketball practice begin?

Which of the following statements is TRUE?

The underlined word “doze” means_____.
