【题目】Daniel was born in New Orleans, LA., in 1962, slow to walk and talk, and short. He was the tiniest in his class, but he developed a warm, outgoing nature and was popular with his peers(同龄人). And he became skillful at sports.

Baseball gave him his earliest challenge. He was an excellent players in Little League. At graduation, the coach named Daniel the team’s most valuable player.

His finest hour, though, came at a school science meeting. He entered an exhibit explaining how the circulatory system works. It was traditional, especially compared to(与相比)the modern, computerized, blinking-light models entered by other students. My wife, Sara, felt embarrassed for him.

It turned out that the other kids had made their exhibits. As the judges went on their rounds, they found that these other kids couldn’t answer their questions. Daniel answered every one. When the judges awarded the Albert Einstein Plague for the best exhibit, they gave it to him.

By the time Daniel left for college he stood six feet tall and weighed 170 pounds. He was in superb condition, but he quit baseball for English literature. I was sorry that he would not develop his athletic talent, but proud that he had made such a satisfactory decision.

One day I told Daniel that the great failing in my life had been that I didn’t take a year or two off to travel when I finished college. This is the best way, to my way of thinking, to broaden oneself. Once I had married and begun working, I found that the dream of living in another culture had disappeared. Daniel thought about this. After graduation, he worked as a waiter at college, a bike messenger and a house painter. With the money he earned, he had enough to go to Paris.

The night before he was to leave, I tossed in bed. I was trying to figure out something to say. Nothing came to mind. Maybe, I thought, it wasn’t necessary to say anything.

1How can we describe little Daniel?

A. He was thin and tall. B. He was slow in his study.

C. He was good at basketball D. He got on well with his classmates.

2Why was Daniel’s mother upset about his exhibit?

A. Because it was not to the taste of the judges. B. Because it was computerized.

C. Because it was designed by his father. D. Because it was attractive.

3How did the author feel about the major(专业)Daniel chose at college?

A. Angry. B. Satisfied.

C. Disappointed. D. Astonished.

4What can we infer according to Paragraph 6?

A. Daniel will study in Paris.

B. Daniel dropped out of college.

C. What the author said impressed Daniel greatly.

D. Daniel worked hard to pay off the money he borrowed.
