Former US. Vice President A1 Gore, who came close to winning the presidency two years ago, said he will not run in 2004, and probably will not have another opportunity to seek the White House.
Though Gore would have been a frightening Democratic(民主黨的)main runner, his decision to give up the 2004 race probably helped his party' s chances in the general election against President George W. Bush, Democrats said.
Many did not want to see Bush-Gore Ⅱ.
“The last campaign was an extremely difficult one,” Gore told CBS TV show “60 Minutes”. on Sunday.
While saying he still had the energy and drive to run again, Gore recognized, “There are a lot of people within the Democratic Party who felt exhausted (by the 2000 race)… who felt like, OK, ‘I don't want to go through that again.’ And I'm frankly sensitive to that feeling.”
In nearly two dozen interviews after Gore announced his plans, Democrats dutifully claimed their party had lost a top candidate, but one after another, they praised Gore for taking an early exit from a primary race he could have won, sparing them a repeat.
Gore, 54, said he was making his decision “in the full understanding that it probably means that I will never have another opportunity to run for president.”
Party activists(激進主義分子)blamed Gore for losing despite a booming economy and eight years of a Democratic administration. Gore even lost his home state of Tennessee; a victory there would have given him the White House.
1.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?
[ ]
A.Gore Was Criticized
B.Gore Decides Not to Fight Bush in 2004
C.Former US. Vice President Al Gore
D.Al Gore and Gorge Bush
2.Why do you think Gore has decides not to run in 2004 according to this passage?
[ ]
A.Because he is quite old
B.Because many people are against him
C.Because he quite understands the feelings of a lot of Democratic members
D.Because he doesn't want to be President of US
3.What was Gore's feeling when he made his decision?

I first went to Harrow in the summer term. The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen. It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less
One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength making its way by fierce strokes(猛力地劃) to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys. “Do you know what you have done?” they said, “It’s Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym, he has got his football honor.”
I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when be was wrapped in a bath towel and so small. He didn’t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, “My father, who is a great man, is also small.” At this be laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.

My husband and son took a New York-to-Milwaukee flight that was supposed to leave Friday at 11:29 am. The flight boarded after 4 pm and didn’t leave the gate until 4:40, and half an hour later the pilot announced it would be another hour until takeoff. At that point a Jewish family, worried about violating the Sabbath (安息日), asked to get off. Going back to the gate cost the plane its place in line for takeoff, and the flight was eventually cancelled. Was the airline right to grant that request?
M. W, Norwalk, CONN.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Situations like that can bring out the worst in people. But despite the increasing resentment(怨恨) of a plane full of people, the pilot tried to do the right thing. He went out of his way to satisfy one family’s urgent need. He should not have done so.
Passengers bought tickets in the belief that the airline’s primary goal was to get them to their destination as close to the schedule as possible. Once they got on the plane and the doors are locked, it’s not correct to announce that the rules have changed and that a personal (as opposed to medical) emergency —no matter how urgent — might take precedence(優(yōu)先).
That would be just as true if turning back to the gate had merely cost a few minutes rather than doomed the flight entirely, since on a plane, even a slight delay can spread outward, from the people in the cabin to those meeting them to the passengers waiting to board the plane for the next leg of its journey and so on. It would also be true if the personal emergency were not religious — if someone suddenly realized she’d made a professional mistake that might cost her millions, and she had to race back to the office to fix it.
If a religious practice does nothing to harm others, then airlines should make a reasonable effort to accommodate it. Though that family has every right to observe the Sabbath, it has no right to enlist an airplane full of captive bystanders to help them do so. By boarding a flight on a Friday afternoon, the family knowingly risked running into trouble. The risk was theirs alone to bear.
【小題1】M. W. wrote the letter to ask whether ______.
A.Any religious passenger has the right to ask the pilot to take off |
B.The airline has the right to cancel the flight without any reason |
C.A flight should meet any passenger’s need despite others’ benefit |
D.A plane which has left the gate should give up taking off |
A.The pilot did the right thing in spite of the fierce resentment. |
B.The plane should turn back if anyone aboard is seriously ill. |
C.Anybody who has boarded has no chance to get off the plane. |
D.Any flight shouldn’t change its schedule no matter what has happened. |
A.Turning back to the gate usually takes a plane quite a long time. |
B.Nobody should take precedence to require the plane to turn back to the gate. |
C.Even if it had taken a few minutes it was not right to turn back to the gate. |
D.It was OK if turning back to the gate hadn’t caused the flight to be cancelled. |
A.It’s right for the plane to turn back to the gate to save a passenger’s treasure |
B.The Jewish family should give up observing the Sabbath after boarding |
C.The biggest problem of turning back is to bring trouble to the pilot |
D.The Jewish family had better avoid boarding on Friday afternoon |
