Although I had left school against the advice of my teachers, I had, without telling anyone, tried to 1 my studies in literature at evening classes. It was a tiresome 2 from one end of the city to another and to 3 among adults was uninteresting. I was the youngest in the 4 , so the friendship I knew at school was 5 . I put up with it for a short period. It was 6 long a walk on cold winter's nights and it was hard to put my 7 into Shakespeare with wet shoes and trousers. So I continued writing poetry at home. By chance, I 8 some prizes and awards for literature. A young woman from a 9 company came to the college one day. She told me that I won a national poetry award.

It was 1:30 a.m. Monday at London’s Savoy Hotel and, with autograph books and cameras, a group of brighteyed tennis fans of all ages were waiting for just a glimpse of Maria Sharapova(莎拉波娃).
The 17-year-old girl defeated champion Serena Williams(威廉姆斯) 6-1 6-4 in the Wimbledon(温网)final on Saturday in London to become the first Russian to win a single title at the championships.
A silver lining to a depressing, rain-hit Wimbledon, she has raised heated passion.
Nobody was complaining, though, for the 1.83-metre Sharapova has created a welcome wave of interest in tennis, something missing in recent years.
Not even Anna Kournikova(库尔尼科娃)evoked(唤起) such passion when she broke on to the scene. To look good on court is one thing, but Sharapova can actually play the game too. Extremely well.
She proved it over 13 days at the world’s most prestigious tournament. Playing tennis of the highest quality throughout, the Russian’s triumph not only lifted the tournament from fits of rain-induced depression but also salvaged(拯救;挽回) the season for the woman’s tour.
Sharapova was given no easy ride in the tournament, having to beat 1999 champion Lindsay Davenport(达文波特)in the semifinals and twice-champion Serena Williams for the title. Neither caused her much concern.
“I don’t remember too much about the final,” Sharapova giggled. “I was in my own place.”
She will find it increasingly hard to find any place to call her own from now on after advertisers identified her as the most marketable woman in sport.
In Russia she is sensational news. She headlined the news bulletins and was telephoned by former Russian President Boris Yeltsin after her triumph.
Sharapova will return to her adoptive Florida home knowing life will never be the same again.
But the girl who arrived in the US aged seven with her father and just US$700 is determined not to let fame and riches detract from her number one love, tennis.
“I know things will start coming up and that many more things will want to get involved, but I want to keep my head cool and play tennis,” she said.
61. Why is Savoy Hotel mentioned in the passage?
A. Because the good-looking Kournikova would break on to the scene.
B. Because the fans wanted to take a picture of Sharapova.
C. Because Sharapova was expected to appear there.
D. Because it gave the fanatics shelter from the rain.
62. Who has won the most times in Wimbledon?
A. Sharapova. B. Kournikova. C. Serena Williams. D. Davenport
63. Before Sharapova, there was(were) ______ Russian(s) who had won the title.
A. Four. B. Two. C. One. D. No.
64. Which of the following statements about this year’s Wimbledon is RIGHT?
A. The rain caused depression in the tournament.
B. Sharapova beat the 17-year-old Serena Williams with a silver lining.
C. Sharapova won the title without effort.
D. Lindsay Davenport met Sharapova in the final and lost the title.
65. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Former Russian President Boris Yeltsin will phone Sharapova for her success.
B. It’s not easy for Sharapova to keep herself away from the advertisers.
C. Sharapova doesn’t like fame or riches.
D. Sharapova will continue to live a quiet life in her second homeland-Florida.
