    But Tareq had fun. He loved singing and playing cricket (板球) with his friends. One day Tareq's dad told him they would move to New York City. Tareq's dad found a new job there, and he thought life would be better there.

    In his new school, Tareq tried his best to understand (理解) his teachers, but it was quite hard. Also, he had few friends.

    Things changed (改变) when he started high school. His high school had students from 30 countries and a cricket team. Tareq was excited to join the cricket team. He was happy to be with kids who loved the game as much as he did. He practiced before and after school. "Playing with the cricket team was the first time I felt accepted in America," he said. "When you play, it .doesn't matter what grade you' re in or what language you speak."

    During his second year in high school, Tareq was named the cricket team's most valuable player (最有价值球员).

    Tareq will go to university next year. He said, "Most universities don't have a cricket team. But that's OK, because cricket was there for me when I needed it most."

阅读文言文,完成以下各题。
    杨时乔,字宜迁,上饶人。嘉靖四十四年进士。除工部主事。榷税杭州,令商人自署所入,输之有司,无所预。隆庆元年冬,上时政要务,言:“几之当慎者三,以日勤朝讲为修德之几,亲裁奏章为出令之几,听言能断为图事之几。”疏入,帝褒纳,中外传诵焉。
    迁南京尚宝丞。万历初,以养亲去。服除 , 复迁尚宝。移疾归。时乔雅无意荣进,再起再告。阅十七年始荐起尚宝卿,四迁南京太常卿。就迁通政使。秩满,连章乞休,不允。
    三十一年冬,召拜吏部左侍郎。时李戴已致仕,时乔至即署部事。绝请谒,谢交游,止宿公署,苞苴不及门。大计京朝官,首辅沈一贯欲庇其所私,惮时乔方正,将令兵部尚书萧大亨主之,次辅沈鲤不可而止。时乔乃力锄政府私人。帝因责诸臣朋比,令时乔策励供职。时乔九疏引疾,竟不得请。时中外缺官多不补,而群臣省亲养病给假,及建言诖误被遣者,充满林下,率不获召。时乔乃备列三百余人,三疏请录用,帝卒不省。
    明年大计外吏。时乔已受事,居数日,帝忽命户部尚书赵世卿代时乔,遂中辍;盖去冬所批察疏,至是误发之也。辅臣朱赓谓非体,立言于帝。帝亦觉其误,即日收还。时乔坚辞不肯任。吏科陈治则劾其怨怼无人臣礼。有旨诘责,时乔乃再受事。
    当是时,帝委时乔铨柄,又不置右侍郎,一人独理部事,铨叙平允。然堂陛捍格,旷官废事,日甚一日,而中朝议论方嚣,动见掣肘。时乔官位未崇又久不置都御史益无以镇百僚由是上下相凌纪纲日紊时乔亦多委蛇议者谅其苦心不甚咎也。秉铨凡五年。最后起故尚书臣孙丕扬。未至,而时乔已卒。箧余一敝裘,同列赙襚以殓。
(选自《明史》,有删改)
【注】①朝讲:早晨对皇帝讲读经史典籍。②苞苴:贿赂。③赙襚:送给丧家钱财衣物。
