His
26、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 e
27、ducation. 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 hel
28、ped 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 w
29、ould come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners. “It was all right with me, ” he said years later. “I didnt go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.” Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone calls fro
30、m 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, mo
31、torcycles, 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 goden moment dies hard.” 61. Owens got his
32、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 62. In the Big Ten meet, Owens_. A. hurt himself in the back B. succeeded in setting many records C. tried every sports event
33、 but failed D. had to give up some events 63. We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because _. A. he was not of the right race B. he was the son of a poor farmer C. he didnt shake hands with Hitler D. he didnt talk to the US president on the phone 64. When
34、 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 overcome difficulties in life D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs 65. Which of the following is a
35、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 Successful Athlete? （ B） Since the beginning of time, man has been interested in the moon. The Romans designed a special day to show admiration a
36、nd respect to the moon. They called it “Moonday”, or “Monday”, as we know it today. Later, the great mind of Leonardo da Vinci studied the moon and designed a machine to carry a human to the moon. Leonardo said that one day a great machine bird would take a person to the moon and bring great honour
37、to the home where it was born. Four and a half centuries later, Leonardos idea was realized. Apollo II took three Americans Collins, Aldrin, and Armstrong to the moon. The mission (任务 ) did fill the whole world with great surprise, as Leonardo had said it would. A lot of essays, articles, and books
38、were written about mans first moon mission. But perhaps the most interesting story was one written before the event over 100 years before. In 1865, French author Jules Verne wrote a story about the first journey to the moon. His story was very similar to the 1969 Apollo II mission. Vernes spacecraft
39、 also contained three men two Americans and a Frenchman. The spacecraft was described as being almost the same size as Apollo II. The launch site in Vernes story was also in Florida. The spacecraft in Vernes story was named the “Columbiad”. The Apollo II command ship was called “Columbia”. His accou
40、nt of sending the spacecraft into the space could easily have been written about how Apollo II was sent into the space. Vernes story was the same as the actual event in several other respects. The speed of Vernes spacecraft was 36,000 feet per second; Apollos was 35,533 feet per second. Vernes space
41、craft took 97 hours to reach the moon; Apollos time was 103 hours. Like Apollos spacemen, Vernes spacemen took pictures of the moons surface, relaxed on their seats, cooked with gas, and experienced weightlessness. They too came down in the Pacific and were picked up by an American warship. What wer
42、e the reasons for Jules Vernes extreme accuracy (准确性 ) in describing an event 100 years or more before it actually occurred? He based his writings on the law of physics and astronomy (天文学 ). Nineteenth-century science and the vivid Vernes imagination gave people an unbelievably accurate preview of o
43、ne of the greatest events of the 20th century. 66. Leonardo da Vinci said that a great machine bird would _. A. bring great honor to the moon B. fly toward the sun C. explore the heavens D. take people to the moon 67. Jules Verne wrote his story of a mans visit to the moon about _. A. 100 years befo
44、re the Apollo II mission B. 10 years before the Apollo II mission C. four and a half centuries ago D. 100 years ago 68. Vernes story is very similar to _. A. the first U.S space misison B. the Apollo II mission C.Leonardo da Vincis story D. a lot of other books on the same subject 69. The passage su

A. developed the laws of physics B. based his writings on the works of Leonardo da Vinci C. was very lucky in what he had described about the future D. knew a great deal about the laws of physics and astronomy 70. The passage mainly describes _. A. the rapid progress of ma
46、nkind B. Vernes accurate preview of the future C. the 1969 Apollo II moon mission D. the 19th-century science and technology （ C） The journey two naval (海军的 ) officers made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be explored. The two
