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
Are you superstitious？ No, of course not. Do you believe in magic (魔法), and luck charms (护身符), and elves or gremlins (小精灵) ？ Certainly not, but if I should greet you with the usual How's business？" You'll answer "Oh, just so-so" although your business is profiting greatly. When you are successful in some venture you might say you were just lucky. And yet, you know it was probably due to your a bility and hard work. Why？ Sometimes you knock on wood because wood was once a tree and there is a primitive belief that protective gods inhabit trees and knocking on wood attracts their attention so they may be credited with your successes.
If I should sneeze, only the strongest of you could refrain(克制而不) from saying "God bless you". Why bless this unsanitary (不讲究卫生的) habit？ Our ancestors believed that a sneeze opened the body to invasion by devils, and invoking (召唤) the name of God made the devils get out in a hurry. You may not realize it, but you express this same "devil invasion" when you say, "Whatever can have gotten into that child？" or "I wonder what possessed me to do that？"
Although they may no longer be believed, evidences of superstitions that have had their origins in the primitive fear of the unknown still exist in modern language and gestures.

A．believe that most people are superstitious
B．believe that very few people are superstitious
C．believes that there are still some evidences of superstitions in what we say and what we do

Sequoyah was a young Cherokee Indian, son of a white trader and an Indian Squaw (北美印第安女人). At an early age, he became fascinated by "tile talking leaf", an expression that he used to describe the white man’s written records. Although many believe this "talking leaf" to be a gift from tile Great Spirit, Sequoyah refused to accept that theory. Like other Indians of tile period, he was illiterate, but his determination to remedy tile situation led to the invention of a unique 86 character alphabet based on the sound pat- terns that he heard.
His family and friends thought him mad, but while recuperating (恢复) from a hunting accident, he diligently and independently set out to create a form. of communication for his own people as well as for other Indians. In 1821, after twelve years of work, he had successfully developed a written language that would en- able thousands of Indians to read and write.
Sequoyah's desire to preserve words and events for later generation has caused him to be remembered among the important inventors. The giant redwood trees of California, called "sequoias (红杉)" in his honor, will further imprint his name in history.
