                                          High climbing kid raises hopes
         Michael McCarthy climbed to the top of the Willis Tower not long ago. The Tower stands 1451 feet
    (442 meters) tall, the highest building in the US.
         As he got to the last step, McCarthy almost fell down, but that didn't stop him. The 14-year-old boy
    finally finished climbing the 2,109 steps and arrived at the top, where he enjoyed the cheers from the
    crowd.
         "I just want to show people that if a kid with no legs can do it, anyone can do it," McCarthy said.
    McCarthy, who was born without legs, has to wear prosthetic legs (假肢) and use a set of crutches (拐
    杖) to walk. But McCarthy has a strong heart. He believes nothing can stop him from achieving his
    success.
         He has been in a karate (空手道) school since he was four years old. When he decided to climb the
    Willis Tower, his karate teacher, Jeff Kohn, was moved and offered to help train him. They spent more
    than 10 hours practicing climbing stairs and keeping balance with the prostheses and crutches on the steps
    every day. "It seems that he never knows what tiredness is. Sometimes, I was so tired that I asked him to
    call it a day,"said Kohn. "But he said he was still full of energy and wanted more exercise."
         Kohn was with McCarthy for the climb. "I saw the last 10 floors — he went faster," said Kohn. "He's
    the most hardworking athlete I've ever trained."
         McCarthy said he was proud of himself and that the Tower now holds special meaning. "When I'm
    older, I'll point to the building and say 'Look at this building I climbed'." he said.

    1. Why did McCarthy decide to climb the Willis Tower?
    A. Because the Tower is very special.
    B. Because he wanted to set a world record.
    C. Because he wanted to show that anyone can do it.
    D. Because he enjoyed climbing stairs very much.
    2. Who helped McCarthy train for climbing the Willis Tower?
    A. Nobody.
    B. His brother.
    C. His parents.
    D. His karate teacher.
    3. What does the underlined phrase "call it a day" mean in Chinese?
    A. 结束当天的训练
    B. 去打个电话
    C. 再训练一天
    D. 另请高明
    4. Which of the following is True?
    A. The Willis Tower is 442 feet tall in total.
    B. McCarthy had a traffic accident and lost his legs.
    C. While McCarthy was climbing the Tower,nobody was with him.
    D. Many people cheered when McCarthy arrived at the top of the Tower.
    5. What can we learn from this passage?
    A. No man is born wise and learned.
    B. Where there is a will,there is a way.
    C. Time and tide wait for no man.
    D. A little learning is a dangerous thing.
