Passage 1
The cup final is still the only football match guaranteed to attract 100,000 specters to Wembley stadium every year, even though it is a great public event , as much as a game of football . I was very excited when my father managed to get two tickets for the final a few years ago, though I did not realize then that it could be the most memorable ever played.
The teams, Blackpool and Bolton wanderers, both came from the north, but almost everyone in England wanted Blackpool to win because the greatest player of his generation, Stanley Matthews, then 40 years old, was playing for them in what would surely be his last cup final. He had twice reached the final before, but each time a cup winner’s medal had eluded him.
The atmosphere before the match was traditional, but electric. The crowd sang songs for an hour, led by a conductor in the middle of the pitch. At one end there was a sea of orange, with Blackpool supporters roaring for their team: at the other, there were black and white scarves, hats and banners waving in the air for Bolton.

Passage 3 Read the passage and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
On the fourth Thursday in November, in houses around United states ,families get together for a feast, or a large meal. Almost all families eat turkey and cranberry sauce for this meal, and have pumpkin pie for dessert. This feast is part of a very special day, the holiday of thanksgiving.
In 1620 the pilgrims made a difficult trip across the ocean from England. They landed in what is now Massachusetts. In England the pilgrims had not been allowed to freely practice their religion. So they went to the new world in search of religious freedom.
The pilgrims’ first winter was very hard. Almost half the group died of cold, hunger, and disease. But the Indians of Massachusetts taught the pilgrims to plant corn, to hunt, and to fish. When the next fall came, the pilgrims had plenty of food. They invited the Indians to join them. This was the first thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving became a national holiday many years later because of a woman named Sarah hale. For forty years Sarah hale wrote to each president and asked for a holiday for thanksgiving. At last she was successful. In 1863 president Lincoln declared thanksgiving a holiday.
How much is thanksgiving today like the pilgrims ‘thanksgiving? in many ways they are different .for example, historians think that the pilgrims ate deer , not turkey. The idea of thanksgiving, though, is very much the same: thanksgiving is a day on which people celebrate and give thanks.
