He fired people who didn’t do well without giving them a second chance.‎ ‎ “Watson,” said Mr. Smith, “this past year your department(部门) hasn’t earned money. We’re going to drop that department. It’s finished. I’m sorry, but you’ll have to go.” “But, sir, if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need the job to keep my son at Riverside School.”‎ ‎ “What’s that!” said the boss. “Riverside! I didn’t know you had a boy there. That’s an expensive school for a man with your salary.”‎ ‎ “I know, sir. But he likes it there so much! He’s a star sportsman and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him Champ（冠军）there.”‎ ‎ The boss sat perfectly still for a long time — a faraway (恍惚的) look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said, “We’ve got to close your department, Watson. But you’ll take over a new job in another department. It means longer hours -- maybe more pay. Now get out. You’re here for life.”‎ ‎ Watson got out, with surprise on his face. Then the boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie’s last letter from Riverside School -- written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again with sick pain. The letter read:‎ ‎ I can’t say the boys here are any nicer to me than the others were. I guess it’s the same everywhere when you’re a cripple (跛脚的人). But don’t worry about me, Dad. They’ve got a ‎ good chemistry department here. And there’s one boy here who is really great. He’s a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best friend I ever had. Dad, when I grow up, 1 want to do something for Champ. Something big — that he won’t even know about.‎ Your son, ‎ Herbie ‎21. Mr. Smith wanted to fire Watson because ______.‎ A. Watson would take over a new job in another department B. Watson had his son study in Riverside School C. Watson’s department didn’t earn money that year ‎ D. Watson’s son knocked a boy down who hit Herbie ‎22. We can learn from the text that ______.‎ A. Mr. Smith was told not to fire Watson by Herbie ‎ B. Mr. Smith didn’t know that Champ was Watson’s son at first C. Mr. Smith decided to give Watson another chance right away D. Mr. Smith wanted to realize Champ’s dream ‎23. According to the text, which words can best describe Mr. Smith?‎ A. Selfish and greedy. B. Sympathetic(有同情心的) and grateful.‎ C. Hardworking and strict. D. Easy-going and optimistic.‎ ‎24. The author wrote the text in order to ______.‎ A. share a moving story with us B. make our children enjoy life C. provide us with tips on work D. help us to deal with our boss B 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 the 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(运动的) 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 calls from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honored(给予荣誉) 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 me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”‎ In time, however, his gold medals 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.”‎ ‎25. Owens got his other name 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 ‎26. 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 ‎27. 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 US C. have encouraged him to face difficulties in life D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs ‎28. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Jesse Owens—A Great American Sportsman B. The Big Ten Games C. Making a Living As a Sportsman D.

The small even can help the great. Then he tells a simple story. An ant is drinking at a small stream and falls in. She tries to reach the side but makes no progress at all. The poor ant, almost exhausted, is still doing her best when a bird sees her. Moved with pity the bird throws a blade of grass into the water. It supports(支撑) the ant like a boat, and the ant reaches the bank. When she is having a rest in the grass, she sees a man walking along barefooted and carrying a gun in his hand. He wants to kill the bird nearby. When he raises his gun to fire, the ant bites him in the foot. So he stops to look down and the bird flies away quickly.
