    There's a man in the habit of hitting me on the head with an umbrella. At first I couldn't stand it;now I'm used to it.

    I don't know his name. I know he's average in appearance,wears a gray suit,and has a common face. One hot morning,when I was sitting on a tree­shaded bench in Palermo Park,reading the paper,suddenly I felt something touch my head. It was the very same man who now,as I'm writing,keeps striking me with an umbrella.

    On that occasion I turned around filled with anger. He just kept on hitting me. I asked him if he was crazy. He didn't even seem to hear me. Then I threatened to call a policeman. Calmly,cool as a cucumber,he stuck with his task. After a few moments of hesitation,and seeing that he was not about to change his attitude,I stood up and hit him on the nose. The man fell down. But he immediately got back on his feet,obviously with great effort,and without a word again began hitting me on the head with the umbrella. His nose was bleeding and,at that moment,I felt sorry for him. I felt regret for having hit him so hard. After all,the man wasn't exactly hitting me;he was merely tapping me lightly with his umbrella,not causing any pain at all. Of course,those taps were extremely bothersome. As we all know,when a fly lands on your forehead,you don't feel any pain;what you feel is annoyance. Well then,that umbrella was one huge fly that kept landing on my head time after time.

    Convinced that I was dealing with a madman,I tried to escape. But the man followed me,wordlessly continuing to hit me. So I began to run(I should point out many people run as fast as I do). He took off after me,trying to land a blow. The man was out of breath so that I thought,if I continued to force him to run at that speed,he would drop dead right then and there.

1.When the man began to strike the author with an umbrella, the author________.

    A. became angry                     B. called the police

    C. turned around and escaped            D. turned around and fought back

2.The author would most probably agree that the man was ________.

    A. deaf                             B. blind

    C. dead                             D. mad

3.The author felt sorry for the man because________.

    A. the man formed a bad habit of beating others

    B. he hit the man so hard that his nose bled

    C. the man couldn't catch up with him

    D. there was a fly on the man's head

4. It can be learned from the passage that the man ________.

    A. shouted loudly while hitting the author

    B. wanted to tell the author something

    C. ran after the author breathlessly

    D. acted as if he were a fly

After the Summer Olympics are over, when all the athletics have gone home and the television audience has switched off, another group of athletics and fans will arrive at the host city, and another competition will begin. These are the Paralympics, the games for athletes with a disability. But in Beijing in 2008, for the first time, one of the greatest Paralympics will not be taking part.

    She is a British athlete by the name of Tanni Grey-Thormpson. Born with spine hifida (脊椎裂) which left her paralysed from the waist, Bown Tanni used a wheelchair from the age of 7. At first, she was not keen on sport, apart from horse-riding, which gave her a sense of freedom. But in her teens, she started taking sports more seriously. She tried swimming, basketball and tennis. Eventually she found athletics, and never looked back.

    Indeed, Tanni’s athletic career took off. In 1984, when she was 15, she pulled off a surprise victory in the 100metres at the Junior National Wheelchair Games.

    In 1988, Tanni went to her first Paralympic Games in Seoul. She won bronze in the 400 metres. Even greater success followed at the 1992 Barcelonn. Paralympics. Tanni won gold in the 100, 200, 400 and 800 metres relay, setting two world records in the process. In the same year she achieved she first of her six London Wheelchair Marathon victories.

    Tanni’s enduring success had been part motivation(动机), part preparation, “The training I do that enables me to be a good sprinter(短跑运动员) enables me to be good at a marathon too. I train 50 weeks of the year and that keeps me prepared for whatever distance I want to see…. I am still competing at a very high level, but as I get older things get harder and I want to retire before I fall apart.”

    Indeed Tanni retired finally after the Visa Paralympic World Cup in 2007. Her wish is to coach young athletes for Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

    In spite of ups and downs, she never take her fate lying down. In her splendid life, she has won an amazing eleven gold medals, four silvers and one bronze in series of Paralympics- a top level athletic career covering two decades. She has won the London Wheelchair Marathon six times, more than any other competitor, and she has set over thirty world records.

    What advice does she have for young athletes? “Work hard at your studies, and then train, train and train again.”

1. Which of the following sports did Tanni like before thirteen?

   A. Basketball                       B. Swimming.         

    C. Tennis.                          D. Horse-riding.

2. When did Tanni win her first Olympic gold medal?

   A. In 1984.                         B. In 1988.            

    C. In 1992.                         D. In 2007.

3. The underlined word “that” in the 5th paragraph refers to _______.

   A. fifty weeks’ training                B. being a good sprinter

   C. training almost every day             D. part motivation and part preparation
