拓展性作业
Samuel is reading the following articles to learn more about the Asian Games. Read and
help him complete the tasks.
Level A Read and choose the correct answer.
Seeing the Asian Games on television and being a spectator(观众) in the arena are different
experiences, and, as more than two dozen Hong Kong university students discovered, one way to
see the action up close is through volunteering.
16 students from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) and 11 more
from the University of Hong Kong (HKU) were chosen to work at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports
Centre Tennis Centre.
Before starting their Games duties, the students went through rigorous(严格的) preparations
for their positions, including taking a 12-hour online video course, two tests of 190 questions, and
two days of training in Hangzhou ahead of the opening ceremony.
“It’s difficult to explain to them the rules of tennis,”HKUST student Candy Liu Yu-ting, 21,
said. “Spectators wouldn’t understand why we only let them in during odd-numbered(奇数) games
and would become angry. We had to be patient and explain to them.”
Siu, who was assigned to put memorial stamps on tickets, said the task was “quite popular
2among the spectators”. “Keeping a good order in the queues could be difficult at times, but I am
happy to see how happy the spectators looked once they finished the collection.”
1. How many students from HK were chosen to work at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre
Tennis Centre?
A. 11 B. 16 C. 24 D. 27
2. According to the volunteers, what personalities should they have during their work at the
Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Tennis Centre?
A. Clever and organized. B. Organized and modest.

Level B Read and fill in the blanks. (1 word only)
Alex Hua Tian
Alex Hua Tian, a Chinese equestrian (马术运动员), was born in 1989 in England to a Chinese
father and a British mother. He began riding at the age of 4 and fell in love with the sport. He showed
a talent(天赋) in it and quickly rose to fame.
For Hua, equestrian is a journey about growth and exploration, which is not about money, fame,
but about love. “You are not the ruler of horses. You need to grow with them,” said Hua Tian.
Learning to work with the horse has made him more patient. When training with his horses, he
is always full of patience and never gets angry.
Hua sets a good example for young riders in China and the world. Now he feels excited about
the coming Asian Games. Let’s wish him good luck!
Pan Tingting
Pan Tingting, a guide for the Opening Ceremony of the Asian Games, becomes well-known
for her bright smile.
After volunteering for this task, she soon realizes that it is difficult for her to keep a smiling
face because of the heavy board, especially during the Opening Ceremony. So she makes up her
mind to change herself in order to do the task.
She works harder to make herself more suitable for the job. She eats less to be slimmer and
exercises more to be stronger during the training. After several months of training, Pan Tingting
succeeds in losing more than five kilograms of weight and is strong enough to hold the board for a
long time. She once again stands at the ceremony with a brighter and more confident smile.
Yu Pengcheng
Yu Pengcheng, a designer for the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, has been designing over 200
badges(徽章) for the Games since three years ago.
“Yu Pengcheng is creative. He often comes up with exciting ideas,” said his teammate. When
3designing the Ten Scenic Emblems of West Lake, in order to come up with new ideas, Yu Pengcheng
ran around West Lake for two months. His efforts made the badge more designed and interesting.
During the design process, Yu Pengcheng often works extra hours. He has devoted most of his
time to the design. His creative badges were highly praised by many young people around the world.

women's 10m platform gold medal on 3rd October at the Hangzhou Asian Games.
