I am here to announce my retirement from the game of basketball. It won't be another announcement to baseball or anything to that nature1.

Mentally, I'm exhausted; I don't feel I have a challenge. Physically, I feel great. The last time in 1993 I had other agendas. I felt that I wanted to play baseball and I felt that at my age, it was a good opportunity and time to do it. And with the death of my father, and I was basically trying to deal with that.

Actually I talked to Jerry last year once the season ended and I told Jerry at that time, mentally, I was a little exhausted. I didn't know if I would play next year. I wanted to put him on awareness so that he could possibly prepare going into next season. And Jerry, once we had our conversation, wanted me to take time as I did in 1993 to make sure that it was the right decision because it was going to be the final decision. I retired the first time when Phil Jackson was the coach. And I think that even with Phil being the coach I would have had a tough time, mentally finding the challenge for myself. Although he can somehow present challenges for me. I don't know if he could have presented the challenge for me to continue on to this season. Even though middle way of this season I wanted to continue to play a couple more years, but at the end of this season I was mentally drained and tired. So I can't say that he would have restored that. I will support the Chicago Bulls. I think the game itself is a lot bigger than Michael Jordan.

2.Michael Jordan once made an announcement of his retirement.

3.Michael Jordan isn’t strong enough to continue his games.

【解析】

試題分析:本文為一代NBA傳奇巨星Michael Jordan的退役演講稿,他的退役,意味著美國(guó)男子籃球職業(yè)聯(lián)盟喬丹時(shí)代的結(jié)束。

1. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題;喬丹徹底退出運(yùn)動(dòng)生涯。It won't be another announcement to baseball or anything to that nature句意:這次退役后不會(huì)再去從事棒球或其他類似的運(yùn)動(dòng)。故是對(duì)的。

2. retired the first time when Phil Jackson was the coach句意:第一次退役時(shí)的教練是費(fèi)爾· 杰克遜。由此得知喬丹已經(jīng)退役過(guò)一次。故是對(duì)的。

3.】B分析推理題;由第三段第一句Actually I talked to Jerry last year once the season ended and I told Jerry at that time, mentally, I was a little exhausted句意:事實(shí)上, 去年賽季剛結(jié)束時(shí), 我和杰里談過(guò)一次。我告訴他我精神上有些疲憊,不知下一年還能不能打。由此得知喬丹在精神上感覺(jué)到了枯竭和疲憊,并不是因?yàn)樗粔驈?qiáng)大了。故是錯(cuò)的。

4. think the game itself is a lot bigger than Michael Jordan句意:我認(rèn)為比賽本身比邁克爾· 喬丹重要得多。故是對(duì)的

5. I think that even with Phil being the coach I would have had a tough time, mentally finding the challenge for myself句意:“但我覺(jué)得即使本賽季他還擔(dān)任教練, 我也會(huì)很困難, 我從自己內(nèi)心已感受到了挑戰(zhàn)。”由此得知是喬丹自己個(gè)人的問(wèn)題。故是錯(cuò)的。

There was a story about Ken Davis, a man who found a simple way to enjoy his work. Ken just couldn’t find a suitable job. He worked at a variety of jobs and disliked them at all. While Ken was working as a door-to-door salesman, he noticed that at least half of his customers had broken-down doorbells. And suddenly, Ken’s life career became clear. He opened his own doorbell repair service.

Ken’s wife laughed when she first heard his idea. When she realized he was serious, she cried. Whoever heard of making a living by repairing doorbell? But Ken was making a comfortable living at his unique job, and he was happier than he’d ever been.

Ken didn’t enjoy what he was doing, but now he is enjoying what he is doing because he has got to realize that he is working for himself. Because of his passion for work, he is more devoted to it and does his work more creatively and efficiently.

The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Remember, jobs are owned by the company; you own your career!

No matter where you work, you work for yourself! With a little creativity and imagination, your work can seem less like boring work and more like play. To enjoy your work more, it helps to put some play in what you do. Wouldn’t you rather have it that way?
