He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第安人保護(hù)區(qū))that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead, Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete (運(yùn)動(dòng)員) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”1.

The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education.他曾參加一個(gè)棒球隊(duì)，靠很低的薪水完成了學(xué)業(yè)。故C的說法也正確。不正確的是A. In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.在1912年，Thorpe重返學(xué)校完成他大學(xué)教育。故A為正確答案。 Hello, may I speak to John? _A. Can I leave a message for him? B. You are wanted on the telephone. C. Just a second, please. 正確正確答案是：Just a second, please.題目2 Thank you for your invitation. _A. I'll appreciate it. B. It's a pleasure. 正確C. It doesn't matter. 正確答案是：It's a pleasure.題目3Professor Smith promised to look _ my paper, that is, to read it carefully before the defence.A. over 正確B. after C. on 譯文：史密斯教授已經(jīng)答應(yīng)幫我看一下我的論文，這就是說要在答辯前在仔細(xì)看一下。正確答案是：over題目4Did you notice the guy _head looked like a big potato?A. which B. who C. whose 正確譯文：你注意到那個(gè)頭看上去像個(gè)大土豆得家伙嗎？正確答案是：whose題目5Never before _ see such a terrible car accident on the road!A. I have B. have I C. did I 正確譯文：我從來沒有看到過這么恐怖的一起交通事故。正確答案是：did I二、閱讀理解：選擇題（每題10分）排序題A. Does it cost the same for every household?B. You can pay right here, on the Internet!C. Just go ahead.D.
