Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian
Territory(印第安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American
children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76) He
was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim
Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic
gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.
Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he
was 16, his mother and father were also dead, Jim then went to a special school
in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and
write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two
years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team.
(77)The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete
his education. Jim was a star athlete (运动员) in several sports, including
baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability,
mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his
team.
In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S
Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the
decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five
track and filed events, including the long jump and the 1500-meter race. The
decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping and throwing
contests.
People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the
pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold
medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two
gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.”
Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”
