2 . Sports is one of the purest concepts developed. For some, sports is a hobby, others an escape, but for Jason Hills, Post Media Edmonton part-time writer, sports is everything.

At a young age, watching countless hours of sports allowed Hills to process and develop an escape to deal with the childhood painful experience of losing both his parents in a car accident. With so much inside his head, sports provided him with the outlet that millions of people employ daily: being enveloped into “the game.”

Later, as Hills grew into a young man, he began to become involved with school sports. As Hills began to play, the concept of being involved with a university team came into a dream.

Following high school graduation, Hills realized that university athletics might not be in the cards, but was still very determined to have sports play a major role in his life. So he attended Lethbridge College for its Journalism Diploma program. Since then, Hills has been a major component of university athletics coverage in Edmonton for over 10 years. Spending long hours travelling to back and forth across the North Saskatchewan River covering all the postsecondary teams, Hills is Postmedia’s go-to reporter in Edmonton for everything amateur sports.

Hills is a story teller. Though his articles include features, game recaps (简报)and series previews, all of his work showcases university student-athletes like no one else in the City of Edmonton. Hills stands out and stands above many, with an extraordinary ability to capture the athletes’ true voice. By putting himself in their shoes, Hills empathizes (有同感) with the student-athletes by telling their story, bringing a truly human element to the piece.

“My grandma told me when I was young, no matter what you do in life, just do what makes you happy,” Hills recalls.“This type of job and this type of career, you’re not going to make millions in it. You have to do it because you love it and because you’re passionate about it.”

1. Why did Hills regard sports as an escape in his childhood?

A．To relieve his pain.

B．To kill boring time.

C．To recover from bad health.

D．To avoid pressure from his parents.

2. What inspired Hills to enter journalism?

A．His love for journalism from childhood.

B．His great achievements in the university team.

C．His determination to become a well-known sports journalist.

D．His passion for sports and hopelessness of entering the university athletics.

3. What is a distinguished feature of Hills’ articles?

A．Focusing on the comments of the game.

B．Telling the childhood stories of athletes.

C．Reflecting the uniqueness of college student athletes.

D．Bringing his own life experiences into them.

4. Which of the following can best describe Hills?

A．Generous.

B．Strong-willed.

C．Artistic.

D．Knowledgeable.

8 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

“JAMIE EVANS.”

Oh no. Please tell me that Coach Cafferty did NOT just say my name. Not for the one-hundred-meter breaststroke (蛙泳). Except all eyes were turned to me when she announced it, and her eyes met mine over the clipboard (剪贴板) that held the list of events and swimmers for the Plain Township Aquatic Center meet. The PTAC meet was the first of the season, and I was not ready.

“Remember, the meet is on Wednesday night. Be here at four-thirty for and the race kicks off at six. I’ll see you at practice tomorrow.” Coach Cafferty added. The crowd cleared quickly and I headed back home, feeling desperate.

“Did you find out your events for Wednesday?” Mom asked as she slid the pizza box across the table to me.

“Yeah. One-hundred breaststroke,” I finally said, not meeting her eyes. “I don’t know why Coach didn’t give me backstroke (仰泳). She knows it’s my best. I can’t swim breaststroke!”

“Maybe she sees something you don’t.” Mom said.

“Or maybe I should just quit the swim team.”

Mom frowned. “Is that what you want?”

I sighed. “No.” I took a bite of my pizza. “I’m terrible at breaststroke. What happens when I show up on Wednesday and race, and I sink to the bottom of the pool? Or even worse，come in last?”

“Someone has to be last.” Mom pointed out.

“But I don’t even know if I can swim breaststroke for one-hundred meters!” I set my pizza down. “She had submitted the names, but there’s no way I can do this.”

“You could. But how will you know unless you try?” Mom persuaded.

“Yeah, but if I try, I could fail. In front of everyone.” I pictured the entire crowd watching as I finished last, pointing and laughing. My belly squeezed.

Mom set her pizza down and gave me her I’m-saying-something-important-so-listen face. “Don’t worry about other people. Just race against yourself. Forget about anything else except doing your best and swimming your own race. Prove to yourself that you can do it.”

Somehow, there seemed a mysterious power in her words comforting my unsettling heart and I decided to have a try. The next day, I was at practice as required.
