Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第安人 保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76) He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life. Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead, Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77)The team paid him only $ 15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete (运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team. In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and filed events, including the long jump and the 1500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping and throwing contests. People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals , he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world. ” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King. ” From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in _______.
A.India
B.Pennsylvania
C.Oklahoma
D.Sweden

M. L.'s childhood was not especially eventful. His father was a minister and his mother was a musician. He was the second of three children, and he attended all-black schools in a black neighborhood. The neighborhood was not poor, however. Auburn Avenue was the main artery through a prosperous neighborhood that had come to symbolize achievement for Atlanta's black people. It was an area of banks, insurance companies, builders, jewelers, tailors, doctors, lawyers and other black-owned or black-operated businesses and services. Even in the face of Atlanta's segregation, the district thrived. Dr. King never forgot the community spirit he had known as a child, nor did he forget the racial prejudice that was a seemingly insurmountable barrier that kept black Atlantans from mingling with whites.
What is this passage mainly about？
A．The prejudice that existed in Atlanta.
B．Martin Luther King's childhood.
C．M. L.'s grandfather.
D．The neighborhood King grew up in.

根据以下内容回答题：
Robin Hood is a familiar figure to most of US．The outlaw who robbed the rich to give to the poor and dwelt with his band of merry followers in Sherwood Forest has long been celebrated in both prose and poetry．On stage and screen，he has fascinated countless generations．Yet behind that popular character lurks a mystery：Wh0，exactly，was Robin Hood？Did he exist at all？The evidence for a real，livin9，breathing Robin Hood is rather weak．Records show that in thirteenth．century，England there were a number of people who answered to his name or to something close to it．Yorkshire birth records note the arrival of a Robin Hood who apparently died in infancy．Also，of Yorkshire was Robyn Hode，a servant to King Edward Ⅱ．The man known as Robert Hude is remembered only through a now almost illegible name on a grave stone．In Sussex，there was also Gilbert Robynhod，a man whose name appears often in the local sheriffs records for nonpayment of debts． Despite careful searches of local records by historians，there is little connecting any of these men to the legendary Robin Hood．Still，there just may be a grain of truth in the legend of Robin and his merry band． In the thirteenth century，England certainly had its share of outlaws．Perhaps the most famous was Hereward the Wake，the last Angl0—Saxon chief to resist the Norman Conquest of 1066．HereWard and countless others rebelled against Norman rule and fled into the thick forests that carpeted the English countryside． Not surprisingly，their adventures formed the basis of numerous stories and songs in which the figure of Robin Hood consistently played a key role．Robin is presence in so many different songs and stories has led to the belief that he probably did exist，although perhaps not in，such heroic form．
It was discovered in Yorkshire birth records that．
A.Robin Hood was once a servant to King Edward II
B.there was a Robin Hood who died when he was a small babv
C.Robin Hood was a name commonly used in thirteenth—century England
D.the name of Robin Hood appeared often in the local sheriffs records
