　　Even before historian Joseph Ellis became a best-selling author, he was famous for his vivid lectures．In his popular courses at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts, he would often make classroom discussion lively by describing his own fighting experience in Vietnam．But as Ellis's reputation grew--his books on the Founding Fathers won both the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize－the history professor began to entertain local and national reporters with his memories of war．Last year, after The Boston Globe reported Ellis's experience in the Vietnam war, someone who knew the truth about Ellis dropped a dime．Last week The Boston Globe revealed that Ellis, famous for explaining the nation's history, had some explaining to do about his own past．

　　“Even in the best of lives, mistakes are made," said Ellis．It turned out that while the historian had served in the Army, he'd spent his war years not in the jungles of Southeast Asia, but teaching history at West Point(西点军校)．He'd also overstated his role in the antiwar movement and even his high-school athletic records．His admission shocked colleagues, fellow historians and students who wondered why someone so successful would beautify his past．But it seems that success and truthfulness don’t always go hand in hand．Even among the successful achievers, security experts say, one in ten is deceiving．And, oddly, people often beautify their past once they're famous, says Ernest Brod of Kroll Associates, which has conducted thousands of background checks．

　　Then what makes them do it? Psychologists say some people succeed, at least in part, because they are uniquely adjusted to the expectations of others．And no matter how well-known, those people can be haunted(长期不断的缠绕)by a sense of their own shortcomings．"From outside, these people look anything but fragile," says Dennis Shulman, a psychoanalyst．"But inside, they feel hollow, empty,”

(1)

Which of the following shows the order of what happened to Ellis? a．He became a best-selling author． b．He taught at Mount Holyoke College． c．His books won two important prizes． d．The Boston Globe reported his experience in Vietnam． e．He entertained reporters with his memories of war．

　　MONTREAL(Reuters)－Crossing the US-Canada border(边界)to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen ＄10 000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security(安全)rules．

　　The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border．Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert．The nearby Quebec village of St．Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church．

　　There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5530-mile border between Canada and the US－which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings．

　　As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada, as usual．The US customs(海关)station in this area is closed on Sundays, so he just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, following a tightening of border security．Two days later．Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him he had been caught on carnera crossing the border illegally(非法地)．

　　Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May．That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint．

　　Albert has requested that the Customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since．“I feel like I’m living in a prison,”he said．

(1)

We learn from the text that Richard Albert is ________．
[　　]
A．	an American living in Township 15
B．	a Canadian living in a Quebec village
C．	a Canadian working in a customs station
D．	an American working in a Canadian church

Albert was fined because he ________．
[　　]
A．	failed to obey traffic rules
B．	broke the American security rules
C．	worked in St．Pamphile without a pass
D．	damaged the gate of the customs off ice

(3)

The underlined word“detour”in Paragraph 5 means ________．
[　　]
A．	a drive through the town
B．	a race across the fields
C．	a round-about way of travelling
D．	a journey in the mountain area

(4)

Why did Albert say“I feel like I’m living in a prison”?
[　　]
A．	Because he had broken the law．
B．	Because the customs office refused to change their decisions．
C．	Because he didn’t know the law．
D．	Because he couldn’t go to church in order to obey the law．

(5)

What would be the best title for the text?
[　　]
A．	A Cross-country Trip
B．	A Special Border Pass
