【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

When people think of Hollywood, they think of the city where dreams come true．This did not apply to F．Scott Fitzgerald, a screenwriter who had his share of ups and downs in this land． Fitzgerald was not a successful Hollywood writer because he was not good at the career path he chose．He was an amazing novelist, but his efforts of turning them into screenplays ended in disappointment and confusion．It was because of a lack of potential for screenwriting as well as his addiction and desire to be famous．

Growing up as a boy, Fitzgerald went to movies a lot．He wanted to write stories that would eventually turn into movies．The problem was: just because Fitzgerald wanted to do something didn’t necessarily mean that he was good at it．He made his attempts, but most of these efforts ended in disappointment because he thought about the change from script（劇本）to screen too much．His plot was too detailed and complicated; his tone was too serious or his dialogue too sentimental（感傷的）．

Fitzgerald’s quick rise to fame also led to his fall．In life, things are not meant to happen all at once, all that the same time but it did for Fitzgerald． At his best time, three of his early stories were made into short films, including The Great Gatsby and Babylon Revisited． As the twenties approached, he was gradually forgotten by the reading public． He became drunk and constantly took pills both to sleep and wake up．His marriage was destroyed and his wife broke down mentally．He seemed unsure about his life．

Fitzgerald had another chance at success when many opportunities came his way, including revisions of Emlyn William’s play The Light of Heart and production of one of his own scripts, Cosmopolitan．However, these were all put aside and he was right back where he started, left behind and called a “ruined man”．Fitzgerald simply wanted too much in his life．He wanted “to be both a great novelist and a Hollywood success, to write songs like Cole Porter and poetry like John Keats”．His addiction to fame held him back and led to his failure as a Hollywood writer．

【1】Which is a reason that Fitzgerald failed in screenwriting?

A. He was not talented in screenwriting．

B. He had a miserable family life．

C. He spent too much time watching movies．

D. He was greedy for money in his life．

【2】Fitzgerald’s screenwriting was _____．

A. disappointing in ending

B. complex in plot

C. playful in tone

D. simple in dialogue

【3】Which of the following was NOT written by Fitzgerald?

A. The Great Gatsby B. Babylon Revisited

C. The Light of Heart D. Cosmopolitan

【4】When Fitzgerald had another chance at success, he ______．

A. took full advantage of it

B. went back home to start business

C. refused to make changes

D. started to write songs and poems

【5】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Fallen for Fame Addiction: F．Scott Fitzgerald

B. An Inch into Fame: F．Scott Fitzgerald

C. F．Scott Fitzgerald: A Great Novelist

D. F．Scott Fitzgerald: A Great Screenwriter

【題目】Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends much time cleaning sneakers. Some once belonged to him; some were his friends. But soon they will have new owners; underprivileged children in the US and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Shoes (S. 0. S.) charity.

He was once a football star in high school. " I started thinking about all the things I got from running—the health benefits, the friendships, the confidence, " he says. “And I realized there are children who don't even have shoes.”

Woodburn gathered up his own slightly worn sneakers, then put out a call to teammates and the town. His goal was to have 100pairs by Christmas 2007. Surprisingly the count climbed to 500pairs. Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools. To date, S. 0. S. has collected and donated over 3，000 pairs.

Woodburn has cleaned almost all of them. “People think of it as dirty work, “He says.” But I like doing it. As I work, I imagine who will get each pair. “It takes three to five minutes to clean one pair, and he'll do up to 100 pairs at a time.

To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world, whose founder and president said Greg's running shoes were a nice addition. For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity. Two boys in Southern California attended school on alternate(間隔的）days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small the other. Thanks to S. 0. S. ，each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now attend school daily. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.
