His most special invention was the machine gun. 2 By watching the way birds fly, Leonardo tried to find out the secret of flying. 3 In all, Leonardo designed more than 1, 000 inventions during his life.However, some people thought that Leonardo was a strange man. 4 He usually used mirror writing, which looks like writing in a mirror, starting from the right side of the page and moving to the left.No one in his life time knew how great Leonardo was. 5 .However, we now believe that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known.He designed a flying machine 400 years before the plane was invented.He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect.He didn't eat any meat, which was unusual at that time.They were produced and used in war many years later.24五、阅读填空（1*5=5）单词拼写25Nansha Island is in the s of Guangdong.（1）My sister f school last July.

Elizabeth is the eldest child of the family. Her sister Princess Margaret was born 4 years later. Elizabeth and Margaret have very different characters.Elizabeth is very serious and tidy; Margaret is outgoing and headstrong. But they have kept close as sisters. When having lessons at home with their governess Marion Crawford,Margaret was often naughty. Elizabeth protected her every time when she broke the rule. When they grew up, Margaret had sad love stories and unhappy marriage. The Queen gave her a lot of help.Margaret was one of the few people who could lose their temper with the Queen. Even as an adult, she would sometimes shout at her. But they never quarreled （吵架）for long. To Queen Elizabeth, it was a sadness that her sister never found lasting happiness.3 A.B.C.D.The film A Royal Night Out talks about .the daily life of Queen Elizabeth Ⅱthe palace life of the two young princessesa true story of the two sisters which is not well-known the celebrations of the end of World War Ⅱ in Europe （1）A.B.C.D.A "governess " is .someone who cares for sick, old or young people in a hospital a woman who teaches and trains a child especially in a private home a woman who works in a restaurant, serving people with food and drinksomeone who is employed to manage the cleaning, cooking etc in a house or hotel（2）三、阅读理解ed to be a quiet girlB.had an unhappy family lifeC.often lost her temper with ElizabethD.was hard-working and strong-mindedFrom the passage above, we learn that Margaret .（3）A.B.C.D.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?The sisters often fought each other.Elizabeth always protected her sister.The queen and her sister are very different.Elizabeth felt sorry for her sister's unsuccessful marriage.（4）A.B.C.D.What is the main idea of the passage?The passage tells us about the life of Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ.The passage is mainly about Queen Elizabeth's childhood.The main idea of the passage is about Margaret's sad love stories.The passage mainly talks about the two sisters' good relationship.（5）For many years, I believed that all my sufferings came from my ever size body. I even thought that if I were thinner, all the problems might disappear.Many weight-conscious people mistakenly believe that changing their bodies will fix everything. Perhaps their worst mistake is believing that being thin is the same to being loved,being special, and being cherished （被珍惜）. They dream every day about what will happen when they get to the right size. They work very hard to realize this dream. Then, one day, they finally get to their goal. However, they may find that things are not changed, and problems are still there, which may disappoint them even more.It took me a long time to find out that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards （标准）are different among countries. In Samoa, a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if we want happiness, why not put our energy there instead of on the size of our body? Why not look inside? We have to find a way to live comfortable inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitude （态度） towards ourselves, the whole world changes.4 A.body sizeB.culture differenceC.ideas about beautyD.attitude towards lifeThe passage tries to tell readers the importance of .（1）Which of the following has the similar meaning with the word "fix " in paragraph 2?（2）A.Repair.B.Answer.C.Become.D.Love.A.B.C.D.The weight-conscious people's worst mistake is .never getting to their goal not knowing how to lose weightbelieving that body size means everything in life about the beauty standards in different countries （3）A.B.C.D.What is TRUE about the writer?He/ She is a Samoan.He/ She succeeded in losing weight.He/ She used to cherish herself/ himself all the time.He/ She used to be troubled by her/his weight.（4）A.B.C.D.According to the writer, what is the right attitude towards life?A woman weighing more than 200 pounds is attractive.All the others will love you if you are thin and beautiful.People should live comfortable without thinking about their weight.We should put our energy on happiness instead of on our body size.（5）When US student Olivia Priedeman, 17, woke up one morning, she thought she had had a dream about making plans with a friend. But it wasn't a dream. Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was deeply asleep.Reading and sending text messages while being asleep—called "sleep texting （发短信）”一is an unusual sleep behaviour, similar to sleep walking. It's also a growing concern （关心的事） among doctors: young people can't live without their cell phones.One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. And at least four out of five teenagers said they sleep with their phoned on or near their bed.Elizabeth Dow dell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has studied sleeping texting. She said that having a phone nearby all night is a big part of the problem.Andrew Stiehm, a sleep medicine expert with All in a Health in Minnesota, agreed. It's possible for the part of the brain that controls motor skills to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment may be still asleep. That's why some people can perform basic movements—such as walking, talking, texting or even driving—while they're sleeping.5Some of Dowdell's students said that they're disturbed （困扰） by their nighttime texting behaviour. But because sleep texting is unconscious , it's a difficult habit to break.Dow dell said that some students even wear socks on their hands to keep themselves from texting.Marjorie Hog an, a doctor at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota,suggests that keeping all electronic device （电子产品） outside the bedroom at bed time may do help.A.B.C.D.What happened to Olivia Priedeman?She sleep walked to a friend's house.She dreamed of making plans with a friend.She called one of her friends during the night.She read a text message from her friend while being asleep.（1）A.B.C.D.According to the experts, why can some people keep moving while they are sleeping?Because they are cleverer than the others.Because they can't live without their cell phoned.Because they sleep with their phoned on or near their bed.Because some part of the brain still wakes up.（2）A.不主动的B.无意识的C.无动于衷的D.没有规律的What does the underlined word "unconscious" mean?（3）A.B.C.D.Doctor Hogan suggests people who sleep text .stop texting during the night timetake some medicine to control the behaviourkeep their phones out of their bedrooms while they are sleepingwear socks on their hands to stop themselves from sending text messages （4）A.B.C.D.We can learn from the passage that .it is easy to give up a sleep texting habitone in three teenagers has sleep texting behaviour four out of five teenagers send 100 text messages a dayhaving a phone nearby all night is a reason of sleep texting behaviour（5）Read the following six advertisements and answer the questions for each of them.HOUSE FOR SALEComfortable family home with large garden on north side of town.6Three bedrooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom.Offer over ＄35, 000ASSISTANT WANTEDFor busy restaurant.

He was so well known for his good knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn from him. 1One day a student asked him, "My dear teacher, I have thought about your words over and over again, and I can understand most of them. But still, there is something I don't understand. 2 But I think we students have far more than you. "7四、语篇补全A.B.C.D.E. 3 Then he said, "Of course, I have learned much more. But it's wrong to think that a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. 4 Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I have more chances to face what is still unknown. And that's why I myself have more questions than you do. 5 You will never learn enough, you know. "Out of the circle is what is still unknown to us.With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circle, one as large as a big cake, the other smaller. .The more you learn, the more questions you have.The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and answered their questions with great patience.Didn't you say you yourself have many, many more questions about things than we do?（共6小题，每小题1分，共6分）The k on your right is used for cutting meat.8I believe that our friendship will last f .9Eating more vegetables is good for our h .10The three boxes only w 3kg altogether, so we can carry them easily.11Can you guess the m of this new word according to the text?12Are there any good ways to make these n dogs quiet down?13五、首字母填空（共7小题，每小题2分，共14分）他们正在准备明天的生日派对。

In both the East and the West, they are nowpart of our culture.In Japan, some primary school books use manga to help teach lessons. What's more, a university in Kyoto has a Manga Department. Students who take a class there will have Astro Boy on their reading list. Astro Boy , The cute robot with big eyes and black hair is still popular across the world. The creator of Astro Boy is Osamu Tezuka, who is known as the God of Manga. He also made Black Jack, one of the first medical comic books. Tezuka was a doctor himself, so he had the ability to make the stories real.Astro Boy and Black Jack started a new type for comic books in Japan. Tezuka once said that he believed that comics were able to be more than just making people laugh.Five years after Tezuka's death, a museum was built in memory of his life and his comic art. There, visitors can watch Tezuka's short films, enjoy his art, and learn about his life.Tezuka's drawings were once shown in Taipei's Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Taiwan.There were also human-sized models and 3D anime of the characters in his drawings on show.A visit there is like watching through the pages of his comic books.13 A.B.C.D.In Japan, if students take classes in the Manga Department, they should .have a model of the cute robotget the chance to enjoy the film of Astro Boyread the famous comic book Astro Boyget a picture of the cute robot（1）A.It has big eyes and black hair.B.It has round eyes and yellow hair.C.It has blue eyes.D.It has short blonde hair.What does Astro Boy look like?（2）A.Astro Boy B.Tezuka C.the God D.JackThe underlined word "He" in Paragraph 2 refers to .（3）A.B.C.D.Visitors can in the museum in memory of Tezuka in his home town.watch Tezuka's short films and learn to draw comicslearn about Tezuka's life and enjoy his short moviessee Tezuka's drawings and human-sized modelswalk through pages of Tezuka's comics and films（4）四、阅读理解（共20题，每题2分，共40分）A.B.C.D.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?Comic books are used as textbooks in schools in Japan.Astro Boy and Black Jack started a new kind of comic books in Japan.Tezuka could make Black Jack feel real because he was a doctor.Tezuka thought comics could be more than just making people laugh.（5）Pingshu, or storytelling, a Chinese traditional art form, has been popular mostly in northernChina. Speaking of it, we can't fail to mention Shan Tianfang. With a simple backdrop （usually a pair of screen doors ）, a table, a folding fan （折扇）and a piece of wood （known as xingmu ）, Shan won a large number of fans, as a "forever electric wave （电波）" .Shan Tianfang was born into a Quyi family in Yingkou, Liaoning Province in 1934. His grandparents and parents were either storytellers or Xihe Dagu （a kind of folk music ）singers.Influenced by his family, Shan could vividly （生动地）tell stories when he was only five to six years old.In 1953, Shan entered Northeast Engineering College but dropped out soon because of health problems. In the same year, Shan began to learn storytelling from Li Qinghai, an experienced storytelling artist. Soon Shan became famous in Anshan, Liaoning Province. The teahouses where Shan told stories were always very crowded.In 1957, to enrich his knowledge about history and literature （文学）, Shan attended some classes of Liaoning University's History Department, where he studied for three years.Whenever speaking of the decision . Shan said proudly, "It's impossible to achieve my later success without the three years' study."As many good storytelling materials were lost over time, Shan decided to write down all the stories he knew. In more than ten years, he finished nearly 50 storytelling novels, with more than 20 million words. Also, he started an art school, and especially opened classes of storytelling performance, hoping to educate more young storytellers to develop the art.On 11 September, 2018, Shan died in a hospital in Beijing at the age of 84.14 A.2 B.3 C.4 D.5How many things were needed when Shan Tianfang was telling stories?（1）A.Paragraph 1.

The young whales all died of heart trouble. The researchers believe that the young whales may have entered the North Sea by mistake. Since the sea floor here is not deep enough for these animals, it caused the whales to lose their way and their lives.While that is certainly sad, what is worse is the plastic that the scientists discovered inside the whales' stomachs （胃）. Among the man-made rubbish eaten by the young whales was the remains of a 13-meter long and 1.2-meter wide plastic safety net used for fishing. The scientists also found a big plastic cover from a car and some plastic bottles pieces.Though the plastic was not responsible for the death of the whales, the discovery shows the harmful result of our throwing plastic rubbish everywhere. Ursula Siebert, a scientist says, "If the whales had survived, the rubbish in their stomachs might have caused serious problems."Also, as the whales eat more rubbish, it may give them the wrong comfort of being full and reduce their desire to feed, resulting in illnesses.Whales are not the only animals hurt by the plastic waste in our oceans. Sea turtles （龟）also mistake the brightly-colored rubbish for food. As plastic rubbish stays in the animal's stomach, it results in building up gas and then the turtles can no longer dive deep into the ocean to look for food. Instead, they just move on the surface of the water and if not saved in time, they will die of hunger.According to researchers, in the past six to seven years, the number of sea animals' eating or taking in plastic has greatly increased. The scientists warn that even little plankton （浮游生物）， the food source （来源）for many sea animals, is taking in the rubbish.15 A.they were too hungry to live onB.they were too young to live aloneC.the water wasn't deep enoughD.the water was too dirty for themThe young whales all died of heart trouble because .（1）A.Many small fish.B.Nothing at all.C.Many bottles.D.Much plastic rubbish.What did the scientist find inside the whales' stomachs?（2）A.We can learn from the third paragraph that .plastic rubbish is bad for whales（3）B.C.D.the rubbish caused the death of the whaleswhales don't like carting plastic rubbishthe whales were kept in the fish netsA.They may die of the plastic rubbish.B.They would like to eat nothing else.C.The rubbish may build up gas.D.They can't swim any longer.What may happen if sea turtles eat plastic rubbish?（4）A.B.C.D.We can we learn from the last paragraph?We are trying our best to deal with the rubbish problem.The problem that sea animals eat plastic is serious.Little plankton really lives on big sea animals.Little plankton can't eat plastic rubbish at all.（5）As space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is notonly amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.Scientists have found out that the radiation is the greatest danger to spacemen in space,When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of the radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The harm of the radiation won't be found until their children even grand children are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really effective medicine has been found so far.Space rubbish is also thought to be a great danger to spacemen. It's reported that there were 9, 000 human-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellite, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space rubbish. An explosion in space in 1999 made a cloud of 300, 000 fragments , each at least 4 mm in size. A small piece of these even knocked a spaceship window and caused some damage .Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working to deal with space rubbish. Although space is really dangerous, it interests many people on the earth. In the near future, it may become possible for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. We may even choose to leave the earth and live in space in a few years. So we should do something to help improve the space environment.16 A. B. C. D.shows the man-made things in space in a correct way.（1）A.good B.helpful eful D.harmfulThe radiation from the sun and other stars is to spacemen.（2）A.碎片B.炮沫C.烟雾D.飞碟The underlined word "fragments" means in Chinese.（3）A.two B.three C.four D.fiveThe passage talks about kinds of danger in space.（4）A.B.C.D.Which of the following is TRUE?Scientists have found out ways to solve any problem in space.Every one of us can have a travel to space in ten years.The harm of the radiation may be found in the spacemen's children.Space is really dangerous, so it doesn't interest anyone on the earth.（5）A.B.C.D.E.The death of an orangutan （红毛大猩猩）in August broke the hearts of many people.1 He was one of the world's first apes （猿）to learn sign language.In 1979, when Chantek was just 9 months old, he was taken to the Uriversity of Tennessee in Chattanooga, US. Researcher Lyn Miles led an unusual experiment there 2 .The scientist then taught Chantek sign language. 3 He even came up with his own words, including "tomato toothpaste" for ketchup （番茄酱）. He was also taught other basic human skills, such as using a bathroom and cleaning his room.Chantek stayed at the university for 8 years. He sometimes even walked to classes with students. But in 1986, Chantek escaped from his room and frightened a student. 4 He spent 11 years there, living in a cage and becoming overweight and unhappy.Chantek was moved to the Atlanta Zoo in 1997, where he could finally go outside and swing from tree to tree.5 But he was too shy to do it with strangers.Miles visited Chantek often at the zoo. She said that Chantek still saw himself as half human, and called the zoo's other orangutans "orange dogs".On August 7, Chantek died of heart disease at the age of 39.The university had to send him to live in an animal center.Chantek was not an ordinary orangutan.She wanted to teach Chantek like a human child.The zoo said the orangutan often used sign language to "talk" with his caretakers.He learned at least 150 words in American Sign Language.17五、阅读填空（共5题，每题1分，共5分）六、单词拼写（共10题，每题1分，共10分）He is d .

The word "listen" has the same letters as the word "silent". Listening silently is a good quality (品质)that we should have. Then why is it important to be a good listener?Listening is really helpful.When someone is sad or angry, he wants to express (表达) his poor feelings. At this moment, we need to listen silently first until he gets calm (冷静的). Then we may have a good talk with him.Maybe it is a good way to help him out.Listening is a kind of love.For example, we may think our parents are always talking too much. But in fact, they do so because they are anxious about our health, study and so on. If we listen patiently (有耐心地), our parents will feel we care about them. A loving silence is often more powerful (有力量的) than words.Listening is polite behavior.Sometimes, we just want others to listen to us but forget to listen to others. In fact, that's not polite. In order to show our respect (尊重) for others, we had better listen to them first. Then we can express our ideas.Listening sounds easy, but it's not. Every head is a world. So we should learn to listen with our ears, eyes and hearts as much as we can, and try to make ourselves good listeners from now on.( ) 51. When someone is sad or angry, we should first.A. listen to him silentlyB. express our poor feelingsC. talk too much with himD. tell his parents about it( ) 52. The underlined word "anxious" here probably means " ".A. satisfiedB. angryC. worriedD. excited( ) 53. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. We should ask others to listen to us first.B. We should express our ideas first.C. We should let others respect us first.D. We had better listen to others first.BWe use our smart phones to carry out many tasks(任务) every day. Many of us have become so reliant on them. However, it is bad for our eyes and health to use too much phone.A study shows that smart phone owners usually start to use their phones early in the morning. They check persona1 emails and WeChat. And before they get out of bed, many people often check the weather, read the news, and send a message or two to friends. After getting up, they often take photos of food, themselves, and even whatever they can see with their phones. They share their photos with their friends. The research finds that users pick up their phones more than l,500 times to do different tasks in an average(通常的) week. And the smart phone users are on their phone for three hours and sixteen minutes a day. That is to say, people use their phones for almost one full day each week.Using phones will take much time and it's also bad for our health. Many people stay up late to play phones. And mobile phones will influence(影响) our sleep. Without using the phones, many people will feel sad. Many owners also find they use their phones without realizing they're doing so.Do you think people use their phones too much?( ) 54. The underlined word "reliant" means “_ ” in Chinese.A. 依赖的B. 讨厌的C. 喜欢的D. 感兴趣的( ) 55. Before getting up, many people use their phones to do tasks, not including .A. checking weatherB. sending messagesC. reading newsD. taking photos ( ) 56. How long do people use their phones a week?A. Almost three hours and sixteen minutes.B. Almost six hours and thirty-two minutes.C. Almost twenty-four hours.D. Almost thirty-six hours.( ) 57. Where can we probably read this text?A. In a newspaper.B. In a travel magazine.C. In a storybookD. In a history book.C任务型阅读，依据文中信息用英语回答问题。

Last Sunday afternoon.5、How much is one glass of milk?A.＄1.B.＄2.C.＄3.一．阅读理解AIn America：There are many more cars than in China．Maybe the number of cars in California is the same as the number in China．But there are fewer traffic jams and accidents in America than in China．We hardly see traffic police in the street，but all cars obey traffic rules strictly，and people hardly find that a car does not obey traffic rules in the street．About America traffic rules，there are many better terms，such as：1．Stop line：There are stop line in all crossing without traffic lights（some have two stop lines and others have four stop lines）；all cars must stop while meeting the stop lines．C．the stop line D．American traffic rules．BA healthy lifestyle keeps our brain young and memory sharp．First of all，it is necessary to have a healthy diet．Eating more food rich inB vitamins and vitamin E，such as vegetables and lean meat，helps you have a better memory．Doing exercise can keep your brain alive，too．Proper exercise provides much oxygen for the brain．Running，riding a bike，swimming and even walking two or three times a week are helpful．Moreover，getting enough sleep is important．Only when your brain gets a good rest，can it work well．The healthier your lifestyle is，the better your memory will become．But do not expect a sudden change﹣it takes a long time to make a difference．Memory stills help you remember things better．The following three are the most widely used．Chunking is a way of remembering a piece of information by cutting it into small ones．For example，to memorize a ten﹣digit telephone number 2127983630，you can divide the digits into three groups：first 212，then 798，and lastly 3630．This method is far more effective than remembering a string of 10digits．Organization means organizing information into groups of the same kind．For example，trees，grass and flowers are plants；tigers，pandas，horses and cows are animals．Imagery is remembering newly learnt information by using your imagination and connecting it with something that you are familiar with．However，memory skills will hardly work if you don't understand the information．What's more，only a regular review can make the memory last long．That is why students are always advised to go over what they have learnt and then use it as regularly as possible．Human brains are like muscles that needs nutrients and exercise to become stronger．If you make a few lifestyle changes and try some memory skills，youcan certainly improve your memory．4.How many ways of keeping a healthy lifestyle are mentioned in the passage？A．Two．B．Three．C．Four．D．Five．5．Which of the following examples is the use of the skill"organization"？A．Remembering the word"sad"by putting it into the group of"feeling"．B．Remembering the meaning of the word"red"by connecting it with"fire"．C．Remembering a long and difficult passage by understanding its meaning．D．Remembering the number 0708591by dividing it into 070and 8591．6．According to the passage，why should we review what we've learnt？A．To use it better every day．B．To understand it in a better way．C．To improve memory stills．D．To remember it for a longer time．7．The passage is written to tell us．A．not everyone has a good memoryB．memory skills are not difficult to learnC．memory can be improved in some waysD．it is important to have a healthy lifestyle．CLife is full of surprises and you never know how things will turn out．Sir John Gurdon．Is a good example of this．As a boy，he was told he was hopeless at science and finished bottom of his class．Now，aged 79，the very same Gurdon shared the 2019Nobel Prize in Medicine with Japanese stem cell （干细胞）researcher Shinya Yamanaka．Like so many scientists，Gurdon shows us where the power of curiosity and perseverance （坚持）can lead．At the age of 15in 1948，Gurdon ranked last out of the 250boys at his high school in biology and every other science subject．Gurdon's high school science teacher even said that his dream of becoming a scientist was quite"ridiculous"．In spite of his teacher's criticisms，Gurdon followed his curiosity and kept working hard．He went to the laboratory earlier and left later than anyone else．He experienced thousands of failures．"I believe that we will，in the end，understand everything about how cells actually work．，"Gurdon said．In 1962，Gurdon took a sell from an adult frog and moved its

see him in person，可以推测本题应该用序数词表示第一次．序数词在使用时要连用定冠词the．in person 的本意是"亲自"，结合这里的具体内容看，the first time I see him in person应该是指我第一次见到他本人．故选：D．7．【解答】根据问句当中的过去分词done和现在完成时的常用时间状语yet，可以确定这是现在完成时的句式．现在完成时的谓语动词是助动词由"have/has+动词的过去分词"构成的．它表示某一个动作发生在过去，但是对现在还有影响，即用一个过去的动作来说明现在的情况．问句中有过去分词，因此缺少助动词，根据主语人称you应该用have，而答语当中有短语a moment ago（刚才），这是典型的一般过去时的时间状语．故选：B．8．【解答】答案：C 分析句子，结合选项，推测意思是你想要一些蔬菜吗？不，谢谢，我不想要一些．第一空是一个一般疑问句，但表达了肯定的意思，即希望得到对方肯定的回答，用some，第二空是一个否定句，用any，常用于否定句或疑问句，故选：C．9．【解答】答案：C 根据for

For a period of time, he had no way to communicate except by blinking.Now he sits on a wheelchair with a computer by his side. To communicate, he moves two fingers to control the computer's mouse. He selects his words from the screen, which are then spoken by a voice synthesizer （音响合成器）."I have had the disease for most of my life, " Hawking once said. "Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work."Although Hawking is such a disabled man, he made great achievements. He has received many awards and prizes for his work over the years.

But I was turned down every time.In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the countryside and find a small station that'll give you a chance, " she said. I went back home to Dixon, illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete （运动员）to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied （申请）. The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn't hired.My disappintment must have shown. "Everthing happens for the best."
