Kitty O’Neil
Twelve - year - old Kitty O’Neil tapped her coach on the arm. “Let me try”, she said. She was already on the swim team, but this was different. One of the divers had not shown up, and Kitty wanted to help out. Her coach looked down at her.
She had been practicing dives, but could she really stand up to the competition?Besides,she was completely deaf. Hearing and balance go together. Many people thought a person who was deaf wouldn’t be able to dive well. However, Kitty did, and she won the first place at that swimming meet and went on to win the Junior Olympics in her district.
Kitty began diving with Dr. Sammy Lee, a famous coach and former Olympic diving champion. The teenager went to school in the morning and then spent most afternoons diving. It was hard work, and Kitty often hit the water the wrong way. However, she was somehow able to keep practicing. In her diving career Kitty won many blue ribbons and gold medals, but she wanted more. Perhaps she learned determination from her mother. Kitty lost her hearing at the age of four months. Because she wanted Kitty to lead a normal life, Kitty’s mother went to college to learn about teaching people who are deaf. At last Kitty’s mother started a school for those who are deaf.
Kitty’s life was anything but normal, and as an athlete, Kitty was much older than others. When
she gave up diving, she wanted danger and adventure. She raced cars, boats, and motorcycles.
In 1971 she met a motorcycle racer named Duffy Humble ton. Friendship grew between them, and they were married within a year. Kitty settled into the marriage as Duffy continued his job for movies and television. Kitty became bored. Finally, she suggested that Duffy train her to do stunts. She was so brave and strong that everyone enjoyed her stunts. Soon this 97 - pound woman was dangling from cliffs, falling out of windows, and flipping cars. She became one of the busiest stunt women in Hollywood. In 1976 Kitty O’Neil also became the fastest woman in the world in rocket - powered car that went more than 512 miles per hour.

My First Job
I’ll never forget the first day of my first job.1.. The company sold carpets and floor tiles (地板砖)and I had several shops in the area. I started work at 8:00 on Monday morning and made my first mistake at 8:05. I hadn’t driven that type of van before. I let too much petrol into the engine . So I had to wait for twenty minutes. 2. .
I drove to one house to deliver a carpet. There was a problem, though. When I looked in the back of the van, the carpet wasn’t there. Then I remembered the boss had told me to collect the carpet from another shop. I’d forgotten to do that. I drove to the shop in the next town. 3.. All the shops are closed on Monday afternoons. I would have to call again the next day instead.
4. . When I arrived at the next house, I opened the doors of the van at the back. A heavy box
of tiles fell out onto my foot. Ooooooww! I jumped up and down the street on one leg. It was very painful! I was able to walk on one and a half feet up to the house with the box of tiles.
The afternoon was getting very hot. I hadn’t eaten or drunk anything and didn’t have any water in the car. When I went through the next town, I met a traffic jam. 5.. Two hours later, I got to the last shop. It was 6’clock. What a bad day!
A. But I was too late
B. I found a job as a van driver
C. I had to move very slowly
D. My next mistake was very painful
