    A group of frogs were traveling through the woods. Unluckily two of them fell into a hole. When the other frogs saw how 1 the hole was, they told the two frogs that they couldn't be saved.

He fell down and died. The other frog continued to jump as 5 as he could. Once again, the crowd of frogs shouted at him to stop. But he jumped even harder and 6 made it out.

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 the 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."

 阅读以下材料,然后从下面方框中所给的 A、B、C、D、E五个选项中选出符合各部分信息的问句(其中一项为多余选项),完成第小题。

GREAT KIDS                     Love for the elderly

Seven-year-old Maggie Kuznia is a book lover. She finds joy in sharing the stories she reads. Every week, she visits the elderly at Good Samaritan Society with several books. There she has made a lot of new friends who wait eagerly for her story-telling.

Q: {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

A: On a snowy day, my mother brought me along to work at Good Samaritan Society. My mom reminded me to bring toys. However, I brought some books because I had different plans. I wanted to read stories to cheer the elderly up.

Q: {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

A: I'd say making a lot of new friends. The elderly are devoted (忠诚的) listeners, and some of them are always ready to help me when I come across unfamiliar (不熟悉的) words. 

Q: {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

A: I want to tell them to do something they enjoy, such as dancing, singing and so on. I always get support from my mother. Every week, I visit the elderly and often visit each one for over an hour with my mom checking on me to make sure I'm not overstaying my welcome. 

EDITOR'S (编者) NOTE

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

First, know about what the elderly need and offer help to improve their lives. By doing so, we may know what steps we can take towards that goal.

People may think that big things should be done to help others. However, many forget that helping others begins with small things. Small things can make a big difference. 

Let's take Maggie for example. Her goal was very simple, just to care for the elderly by reading stories. So she did. For the elderly, she brightened their day.

Share your ideas with a parent so that you can get help from them. No matter what act you do and how small it is, the elderly's world will be full of love and laughters.


A. How can you care for the elderly? 

B. What's the best part about what you do?

C. What do you like doing in your spare time? 

D. What would you tell other kids to care for the elderly?

E. How did you get the idea of reading stories to the elderly? 

请结合第一节内容,回答下面问题。(请用约20词回答)

What can you do to care for the elderly? Why?{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
