    Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything—tutors （家庭教师）， cards， special learning centers—in short， everything they could think of. Finally they took Tommy to a catholic (天主教的) school.
    After the first day，little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn’t kiss his mother hello. Instead，he went straight to his room and started studying. Books and papers were spread（铺开）out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work. His mother was surprised. She called him down to dinner and as soon as he finished eating， he went back to his room， without a word. In no time he was back hitting the books as hard as before. This went on for some time，day after day while the mother tried to understand what was happening.
    Finally，little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books. His mom looked at it and to her surprise， little Tommy got an A in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity（好奇心）. She went to his room and asked，“Son, what was it？ Was it the nuns（修女）？”
    Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head，“No.”
    “Well then，”she asked again，“WHAT was it？”
    Little Tommy looked at her and said，“Well, on the first day of school，when I saw that man nailed（钉）to the plus sign（加号），I knew they weren't joking.”
    小题1:Why did Tommy’s parents send him to a catholic school？
    A．Because he could eat well there.
    B．Because he could earn more about nuns.
    C．Because his parents wanted him to do better in his math.
    D．Because his parents didn’t want him to learn math any more.

    A．was still the same as usualB．ate so much at dinner

    小题4:The last sentence in the passage shows that _______.
    A．Tommy felt sorry for the mailB．Tommy was afraid of being nailed

They did not like to hire(雇佣) me because I spoke            English. Later，I worked in a small restaurant，cleaning up tables，               dishes and sweeping the floor. Life was       for the first few years. I worked from 10 a. m. to 11 p. m. I wanted to go to school to learn English，but it was impossible. I couldn't       the schooling(学费). ”
    My father      working hard，and reached his goal.

    Some time ago, an old businessman had a large store in Boston. He wanted a boy to work for him, and he put an advertisement in the newspaper. The next morning, many boys came to the old man’s office, asking for the job.
    There was a post（柱子）by his desk, and there was a nail（钉子）in it. He took a walking-stick and said, “Everyone has three chances. If anyone can hit the nail on the head with this stick more than once, I will give him the job. ”
    The boy thought it was very easy. They all tried, but nobody could make it. So the old man said, “I’m sorry I can’t take any of you. ” And they left.
    He kept the advertisement in the papers, and the next morning many more boys came, and among them he saw a thin boy who had been there the day before. The boy hit the nail successfully for three times. The old man felt surprised and asked how he did that.
    “Yes,” said the boy, “I failed yesterday, but I thought that if I kept on trying a while, I could do it. So I went home and practiced hitting a nail with a stick till I could do it, and I got up very early this morning, and tried again. ”
    The old man said, “You are the boy for me,” and gave him the job. Whatever the boy had to do, he tried to do his best. It was not very long before he became the best clerk in the store.

    He was Matthew.          he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told            would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal weight lifter.

I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about                     and overcoming obstacles（克服障碍）than I ever would. He looked at it for a while, then took it off and handed it          to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
    Last summer I got the news that Matthew had         and a letter Matthew had written to me a few days before:
    Dear Rick,
    My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter. The doctors are         to tell me that I don't have long to live any more. But I still smile as much as I can.
    I told you that in the future I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I'll         . I know I'm a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.
    Thank you for loving me.
