For most of the day construction worker Sidney Smith and his brother – in – law Joseph Chambers had been   21  along the banks of Lake Waco with little   22 . Chambers suggested they go home, but Smith　33　　that there were still several hours of daylight　24　　and there was one other place they might try a bit longer before 　25　.
Smith drove his pickup（小貨車）a couple of miles along the　26　road to get to the other side of the lake. This road, in the truest sense, was a path wagging in the heavy　27　area. Even with the sun still high in the cloudless sky, the　28　of trees formed a leafy　29　over the road and it suddenly seemed 　30　in the evening.
“A guy could get lost and nobody would ever find him,” said Chambers.
Smith smiled, “We’re　31　there.” He said. A few seconds later, the smile was 　32　　from his face.
“What the hell is that?”
　　He braked to a stop. Less than twenty feet away was what appeared to be a  33 .
　　For several minutes the two men sat in the pickup　34　to decide whether they had happened to　35　someone’s bad practical joke or something far more serious. Smith with his brother-in-law got out of the pickup and 　36　walked towards that thing some distance before them.
It was a young man who was already dead. They had got to tell　37　. Back into the pickup, Smith backed the pickup down the road　38　he could turn around, then　39　back. With the dead young man still on his mind, Smith felt as if he was going to be sick. God, how he　40　　they had given up fishing and gone home early.

As a boy in Rock Island, Dalkoff was terribly   27   ．He had few   28   and no self-confidence．One day, his English teacher, Ruth Brach, gave the class an assignment（作業(yè)）．The students had been reading To Kill a Mockingbird．Now they were to write their own chapter that would   29    the last chapter of the novel.
Dalkoff wrote his chapter and turned it   30  ．Today he can not recall anything   31 
about the chapter he wrote, or what   32   Mrs．Branch gave him．What he does remember is the four words Mrs．Brach wrote in margin（空白處）of the paper：“This is   33  writing.”
Four words．They   34    his life.
“   35    I read those words, I had no idea of who I was or   36  I was going to be.”he said.“After reading her note, I went home and wrote a short story, something I had always been   37   of doing but never believed I could do.”
Over the rest of that year in school, he wrote many short stories and always brought them to school for Mrs．Brach to evaluate．She was   38    , tough and honest.“She was just what I

His confidence   40  ．Dalkoff believes that none of this would have happened if that woman had not written those four words in the margin of his paper.

When I was born, my parents immediately noticed something wrong. My feet were deformed (畸形的), pointing inward and curling under. I wore casts (石膏) and foot braces (支架) in my first two years to correct the problem. Yet I learned to balance and walk in casts. Soon after the last set of casts came off，Mom enrolled me in dance classes as therapy for my feet. I, however，quickly decided to try something else. Not far from my house was an ice rink (溜冰場) in the mall. There，local skaters would perform ice shows. I wanted to try skating.
I started taking group skating lessons. Performing on ice came naturally. For me，skating has never been about beating others. It’s been about being my personal best. I progressed through various levels rapidly and gave my first ice performance at age seven. Soon I started winning local and regional competitions. That’s because being on the ice has always been the one place I can truly express my emotions. The ice is like home.
I began seriously training when I was nine years old. After graduating from girls’ high school，I moved to Canada. Saying goodbye to my family and friends made me homesick，but I knew deep down that I had to leave and train full－time to give my dreams a chance at reality.
I went to compete in the Olympic Games in 1992.I was the first of the final six skaters on the ice. My long performance started well，but I slipped while landing one of my easiest triple jumps，and my hand touched the ice. I didn’t want to make two mistakes in a row，so next I did a jump with just two spins to play it safe. As I neared the end，I had one more jump. I landed it perfectly.
When medals were awarded，I found myself on the top step，the gold hanging around my neck and America’s national anthem playing. Words can’t describe the overwhelming mixture of emotions I felt.
小題1:The author was enrolled in dance classes to________.
A．meet her interest
B．improve her dancing skills
C．help treat her feet
D．prepare her for skating
小題2:When the author says “The ice is like home”，she really means she________.
A．can express herself through her performance on ice
B．can beat others in local and regional competitions
C．can overcome her difficulty in walking
D．has realized her dream to perform on ice
小題3:The author moved to Canada after graduating from girls’ high school because________.
A．she could get better treatment of her feet there
B．she would do full－time training there
C．that was where the Olympics would hold
D．she wanted to have further study there
小題4:What do we learn about the author’s performance in the 1992 Olympic Games?
A．She completed it without any mistake.
B．She made one mistake on the final landing.
C．She did it quite well except for one mistake.
D．She made more than one mistake.
小題5:By her own experience，the author intends to tell us________.
A．we can realize our dream if we have the courage to pursue it
B．even the disabled can take part in the Olympic Games
C．sports can help people heal both body and mind
D．sports events are not about winning only
