1. With the little (remain) money,the child told me in a (tremble) voice that on the way home most of his money had been stolen.

From the year 2000 on,George Mason University in Fairfax,Virginia,presents a jazz con?cert every year. Around 2200 people attended last year's concert in October. Yet when the first concert was held in 2000,the student musicians played to an almost empty theater. Ed Weiner,a lawyer,was one of the few people in the audience when the school held the first jazz concert. "The quality of the performance was outstanding,but I was shocked to see the poor attend?ance."

So he did something to change it. He found a way not only to increase attendance,but also to raise money. Ed Weiner organized the concerts into a program called Jazz 4 Justice the next year. And the audience responded well to the first performance of Jazz 4 Justice. The perform?ers include students and employees from the university,along with guest musicians.

The concert raises money for the Fairfax Law Foundation. Foundation officials say Jazz 4 Justice has become the Fairfax Law Foundation's secondlargest fundraiser,bringing in more than$ 20,000 a year; five thousand of that goes to George Mason University for running Jazz 4 Justice,and the rest is used to provide free legal services for people in Fairfax and support programs to help young people learn about the legal system. These include courthouse tours for junior high school students and education about the law and the effects of drug and alcohol abuse on health.

Jim Carroll heading that program says: "Jfazz4 Justice grew slowly,but it becomes larger and larger each year. And all that really owes to Ed Weiner because he has done so much to help this program. He is the person who is out there on the streets selling tickets,building our audience,and so on."

Mr. Weiner says the idea is to provide a meaningful experience for the young musicians,but Jazz 4 Justice only in Fairfax is not enough. Ed Weiner had met the presidents of other or?ganizations in Virginia and did a presentation on how other organizations can start partnerships between local music and law programs.

It was an early September day,cool and bright and just right for running,and I was in the first few miles of a 10-mile race over a course with a few high hills. Still,I felt energetic;de?spite the hills it was going to be a fine run.

Just ahead of me was Peggy Mimno,a teacher from Mount Kiseo,New York. She too was running easily,moving along at my speed. The pace felt comfortable,so I decided to stay where I was; why pay attention to pace when she was setting such a nice one? I'd overtake (追上) her later on when she tired.

So I ran behind her. The course headed north for miles,wandered west for a hilly mile,then turned south again along a winding road. The race was getting harder. We had four miles left and already it was beginning to be real work.

Peggy overtook a young runner. She seemed to know him,for they exchanged a few cheer?ful words as she passed him. Their exchange worried me. You don't chat during a race unless you feeling good,and Peggy plainly was.

Still,I was close enough to overtake her if she tired,so I didn't give up hope completely. We were getting nearer to a long,punishing hill now and it would be the test. We were a mile from the finish line,so whatever happened on the hill would almost determine who crossed it first.

As I moved up the hill,my attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up,Peg?gy was moving away―first five yards,then ten,then more. Finally it was clear that there was no help of catching her. She beat me soundly.

There is an important lesson in that race. Women are thought to be weaker,slower and not nearly as skilled in sport. Yet as Peggy Mimno so clearly showed,the similarities between men and women runners are more important than differences. I have run with a number of women,and I can say it is often hard work.

( ) 5. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "exchanged"?

A. Replaced. B. Discussed. C. Chatted. D. Expressed.

( ) 6. By saying "a long,punishing hill" (Paragraph 5) ，the writer implies that .

A. Peggy would be too tired to reach the hilltop

B. men are more skilled at climbing hills as women

C. it would be easy for the writer to overtake Peggy Mimno

D. climbing the hill would not be a lighthearted job

( ) 7. What lesson does the writer learn from the race?

A. Women are as good as men in sport.

B. Women are better at climbing hills.

C. He should have more training in a crosscountry race.

D. He should set a quicker pace at the beginning of a race.

( ) 8. What can we infer from the passage?

A. The writer of the passage is a woman who wants to overtake Peggy and win the race.

B. To his great amazement,the man could not keep up with Peggy and got a good lesson finally.

C. Thinking women are weaker and slower,Peggy got an important lesson in the race.

D. The writer of the passage is a man who feels running with women is a joyful thing.
