【题目】The day I was given the news was a cold Saturday. My mom sat me on the floor and opened her mouth to give me the most words I'd ever heard: “Grandma Billie has been diagnosed with cancer.” Tears filled my eyes immediately. Mom continued, “Grandma is old and her body is too . There’s nothing they can do to treat her.” I knew this wasn't my mom’s fault but I was so . I was almost yelling at my mom, “So, they’re just going to let her ?”

We had to just wait for her to die. I couldn't even the thought. We went to the hospital right away. The doctor said, “Billie has a tumor in her . She won't be able to because it hurts her too much. One option is a feeding tube, but there are times when it will be uncomfortable.” At the end, the doctor sighed, “With a feeding tube, she would probably have three at most.”

My whole family on my mom’s side was really and they were all looking to God to make this easy. I couldn't handle it. If God was so wonderful and so then why did he allow all these awful things to happen to good people? Why was he letting my grandma die?

I came and visited every day after practice. Grandma would tell me the stories over and over again, but every time I was just as surprised and excited to hear them. She was getting really fast and every tme I came to see her it broke my heart more.

3 weeks later, after the softball practice, I was getting ready to see grandma when mom appeared in the locker room. She opened her mouth but at first no words came out. She again, “You can’t go to see grandma today because she just died.” Silence. I couldn’t anyone else in the room. Mom sat next to me and we both held each other and cried.

【题目】Strange Baby-Naming Laws

Germany Parents are banned by law from using last names and the names of objects and products as first names. A child’s first name must clearly indicate his or her sex, and all names must be approved by the office of vital statistics in the area in which the child was born.

Iceland The country’s naming committee consults the National Register of Persons to determine if a name is acceptable. If parents want to go off-list, they must apply for approval and pay a fee, and the name must contain only letters in the Icelandic alphabet.

New Zealand The country’s Births, Deaths, and Marriages Registration Act of 1995 prohibits parents from choosing a name that “ might cause offense to a reasonable person; is unreasonably long; or is, includes, or resembles an official title or rank,” including, apparently, Adolf Hitler and Yeah Detroit—both names recently rejected.

Denmark If Danish parents prefer a moniker not on the list of 7,000 preapproved baby names, they must get permission from local church and government officials. Fifteen to 20 percent of the 1,100 reviewed names—including creative spellings of common names, last names as first names, and unusual names—are rejected each year.

【1】You can tell whether a baby is a girl or a boy according to the first name in _____.

A. Germany B. New Zealand

C. Iceland D. Denmark

【2】In Iceland, the names should _____.

A. be approved by the office of vital statistics.

B. be accepted by the National Register of Persons.

C. containonly letters in the Roman alphabet.

D. be paid for some money.

【3】Which name is accepted in New Zealand?

C. John Smith D. Keenan Got Lucky

【4】According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. Parents should pay a fee for babies’ names if the names are rejected.

B. Each year about 150-200 reviewed names are rejected in Denmark.

C. Adolf Hitler is banned in Iceland.

D. Danish babies’ names should be on the list if parents can’t get the permission.

【题目】James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.

“J.C.”, he replied.

She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.

Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.

A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.

The stage was set for Owens' victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic (体育的) but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.

“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didn't go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”

Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone call from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.

Owens' Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.

“Sure, it bothered(烦扰) me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”

In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”

【1】In the Big Ten meet, Owens __________.

A. hurt himself in the back

B. succeeded in setting many records

C. tried every sports event but failed

D. had to give up some events

【2】 We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because __________.

A. he was not of the right race

B. he was the son of a poor farmer

C. he didn't shake hands with Hitler

D. he didn't talk to the US president on the phone

【3】When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,” he means that the medals __________.

A. have been changed for money to help him live on

B. have made him famous in the US

C. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in life

D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs

【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A. How to Be a Successful Athlete?

B. Golden Moment—a Life-time Struggle

C. Making a Living as a Sportsman

D. Jesse Owens, a Great American Athlete
