My first response was to call a repairman, made the call, expecting the man at the other end of the line to complain about such an awful job. Instead, he simply asked, “The address?”An hour later Steve arrived in his truck. He looked exactly as I had imagined he might: broad and bearlike, in well-worn clothing. uCan you fix it?'T asked with a mixture of doubt and hope. Steve looked at me as if responding to my lack of faith. With a cheerfill shrug that suggested my crisis was all in a day's work fbr him, he said, "Sure.”After a short while, Steve told me that he had to get a tool and tear up the street to the main sewer line. He would first have to get permission from the town. I registered appropriate panic. "How long will all this take?,Again, a shrug. 4CI should have it done by evening.I did not want to watch the digging of my property unfold and went into town to visit some fiends.

Finally, when I went home, a sweeter sight I never saw; a period of newly paved street and all was tidy and relatively dry.I need to say, in my own defense, that I am not a weak father of two children. Tve traveled all over the world, served in the United States Navy and earned a PhD. But the broken sewer line was my limit. Then I thought about Steve. Big, rough, and how people might judge him, if not for his appearance then for his work.

The bow was almost as tall as I was, and it was equipped with an arrow, ready to be shot. Never had a more ill-suited person handled a weapon. But my editor had sent me on a mission: to find my inner Katniss Ever deen at one of Beijing's indoor archery clubs.The brilliant archer Everdeen is the lead character in The Hunger Games movies, the final of which was just released in cinemas. Her arrows can hit almost anything: sword-swinging enemies, fierce animals, even aircraft some- how. Me? I can't throw a paper ball into a trashcan with any precision. And I was warned that archery would require a great deal of upper body strength, though I hadn't seen the inside of a gym in years.News outlets like the New York Times and NPR have reported an increase of interest in archery, thanks to movies like The Hunger Games, Brave and The Avengers. Archery clubs have showed up in many major cities. In Jian Club, an archery-themed bar, we paid 120 yuan fbr an hour's worth of target practice and prepared our bows and arrows.We were told to stand sideways, with one shoulder facing the bull's eye. Your weaker arm would hold the bow, while the other would pull the bowstring back until the arrow was right next to your face. Then it was meters away.Well, sort of. Instead of sending the arrows whistling through the air, my first few simply dropped onto the ground.The failure was a good reminder that archery is a demanding, Olympic-level sport. It worked muscles in my back and arms that I just didn't have yet. An hour came and went, and I found myself leaving with a couple pierced (刺穿的)bull's eyes and sore shoulders. Was I ready to shoot down aircraft with a swift arrow? Not quite. But I was definitely ready for a return trip.1、Why did the author visit an archery club?A.

It is not an Olympic event. B. It is a sport practiced single-handed.C. It takes little effort to be good at it. D. It has gained more popularity recently.4、What5s the purpose of the text?A. To record an unforgettable experience.B. To discuss several hot films.C. To instruct readers to practice archery.D. To introduce a gym in Beijing.Part BDirections:Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the list A -G for each numbered paragraph (41 45).
