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 (體育的) 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 (煩擾) me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living had to eat.”

In time, however, his gold medals (獎(jiǎng)牌) 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.”

Owens got his other name “Jesse” when _______.

A. he went to Ohio State University

B. his teacher made fun of him

C. his teacher took “J. C.” for “Jesse”

D. he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet

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

We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the U.S. 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

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 U.S.

C. have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in life

D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs

Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A. Jesse Owens, a Great American Athlete

B. Golden Moment—a Life-time Struggle

C. Making a Living as a Sportsman

D. How to Be a Successful Athlete

       Every country has its heroes. The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire. If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential（潛勢(shì)）of that nation.
If today in America, you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choice would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars —the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model (推舉…為榜樣). The rock stars too often are involved with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.
A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area — SPORTS. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of a mess. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.
A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model for young people.
Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher, or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.
What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American youngsters are only rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright.
56. The hero discussed in this article means a person ______.
A. who has done something brave          B. who plays an important role in a play
C. whom people greatly admire            D. who rides the waves and moves with the tides
57. What is true of the groups mentioned in this article?
A. They are not fright but are good-looking.       B. They are rich but are strict with themselves.
C. They are talented in some area but lead an indecent life.   D. They are perfect in every way.
58. American young people will not admire ______.
A. a university professor           B. a popular singer     C. a football player     D. a film actress
59. According to the writer, people should hold up as their model those______.
A. who are rich and wear the latest fashion clothes     B. whose personal life is good
C. who can express people’s feelings             D. who work in the interests (利益) of the people
60. What is the writer’s attitude towards American youth’s admiration for their heroes?
A. He is understanding.      B. He is critical.     C. He is angry.        D. He is uninterested.

第一節(jié)（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）
When Jackie Robinson walked onto Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, New York, on April 15, 1947, he changed baseball forever. As the first African American to play in the Major League in modern times, many believe he changed the country forever.
Robinson was born in 1919. He lived in a time when rules controlled what African Americans could do. He was a top athlete, playing football, basketball and baseball. But playing for a major League team was off limits to Robinson because of his race.
Branch Rickey, president and manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, signed (和……簽約) Robinson in 1947. He believed that Robinson not only had the skills, but the courage to face the challenge of becoming modern baseball’s first black player.
It wasn’t easy. Robinson sometimes faced boos (噓聲) from fans. But he became a star, anyway. In 1962, he became the first African-American player chosen to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 2005, he was awarded a Congressional Gold Medal, the highest award Congress can give to an American.
By breaking baseball’s color barrier (膚色障礙), Robinson opened the door for many to follow his footsteps, not only in baseball, but in other areas of life as well. After he stopped playing the game, Robinson worked as a manager for a coffee company. He wrote a newspaper column (專欄). He also started a bank.
56. Before Jackie Robinson, no African-American players could __________.

On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown. Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You're nervous and that's okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.
On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn't figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn't think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.
Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.
Since then, I've been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.
It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out­of­class activities because you'll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isn't straight A's.
Most important of all, be who you are, whether you're a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Don't try to pretend to be someone you're not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.
【小題1】The main reason for the author's fear on his first day is that ________.

A．he was unable to work out the puzzle
B．his schoolmates were unfriendly to him
C．he was not familiar with the new surroundings
D．his schoolbag was too heavy for him to carry
【小題2】From the author's first day experience we can infer that ________.
A．his home was far from the school
B．he got to school before classes began
C．he was fond of the school immediately.
D．he didn't know the right way to class
【小題3】After his first week at school, the author ________.
A．was still not accustomed to the schedule
B．gradually adjusted himself to the new school
C．found high school not so challenging as he had imagined
D．ran for monitor of his class against three other students
【小題4】According to the passage, the secret of the author's success lies mainly in ________.
A．making more friends
B．getting more A's at school
C．being who he really is
D．joining in out­of­class activities
