Most of my friends are moving outside the city.. to avoid the noise, smog, traffic, and crime of the city.

One friend says, "The air is heavily polluted in the city, so I prefer to live outside, where the air is clean."

Another friend is unpleased with the traffic, "Downtown is crowded with cars! You can't find a parking place, and the traffic jams are terrible." Everyone is worried about crime, "The city is full of criminals-it's toodangerous."

For them, the rural(乡村的) life is a cure for all problems, green grass, flowers, swimming pools, barbecues, and so on. Yet after they have lived there for a year or so, they realize that rural life is not so pleasant as they were expecting. Why? Their gardens！ They soon learn that the main part of rural life is yard work . After they work all weekend in their gardens, they're too tired to swim in their pools or cook some meat on their barbecues. And they can't live in the countryside without a car. Most of them moved to the countryside to avoid traffic, but now they're blocked on a busy freeway two hours every day to drive to work downtown.

My opinions about urban life are different-I love to live downtown!　 Why? First, in the city,　 I can enjoy nature. I can walk through the park. smell. the flowers, sit on the grass and visit the animals in the zoo. Yet I don't have to do yard work or feed the animals. Also, I can get everywhere by bus; if there is a traffic jam, I can walk home. I think the criminal life will reflect changes in society too; if people are buying homes outside the city, the criminals will soon follow. Criminals want to avoid noise, smog, and pollution, too. Then, overcrowding and crime will be problems of the suburbs instead of the city!

1.The first paragraph is used　 to _　　　　　　　　　　 .

A. list some figures　　　 B. make comparison

C. lead to the topic　 D. give suggestions

2.What did those moving outside think of their life in the city?

A. Cosy.　　　　　　　 　 B. Convenient.

3.What is the major problem for those who live in the countryside?

B. Having gardens to take care of.

C. Failing to find parking lots.

D. Suffering heavy traffic on the road.

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 a flight of 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 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 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.”

1.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

2.We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because ___.

A. he did not talk to the US president on the phone　　 B. he was the son of a poor farmer

C. he was not of the right race　　 D. he did not shake hands with Hitler

3.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 encouraged him to overcome difficulties in life

C. have made him famous in the US

D. have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A. Making a living as a sportsman　　 B. Golden Moment — a life time struggle

C. Jesse Owens, a great American athlete　　 D. How to be a successful athlete
