请阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项. Bermuda, the island known for its pink-sand beaches, blue waters, and year-round warm weather, has been announced the Official Sponsor of the U.S. Open. It's a fitting collaboration (协作), given the island's reputation as a destination for travelers in search of perfect adventures——just a ninety-minute flight from New York City. Lesser known, however, is that the long history of American tennis was introduced by this attractive Atlantic island. Nearly a hundred and fifty years ago, the New York celebrity Mary Ewing Outerbridge sailed for days to vacation on this quiet island. She watched, fascinated, as some British soldiers stationed there played tennis, although a version different from one we know today. The courts in Bermuda were shaped like hourglasses, the net was also higher, and a number of the rules were different. Mary became fascinated watching the ball flying back and forth, and ended up purchasing a kit containing all the materials needed to bring the sport home to Staten Island. Using a hand-drawn diagram, she laid out a court at her brother's cricket club, where the sport caught on among members. From there, the game's popularity quickly grew, leading to standardized rules and regulations--and then, in 1880, to the first U.S. tennis championship. In only a few years, Mary' s unexpected souvenir from her Bermuda trip helped set a national tradition: today, nearly eighteen million people in the US play the sport, from the public-tennis-court games in many cities to the annual U.S. Open, in NYC. Mary's role in bringing tennis from Bermuda to America has earned her a place in the International Tennis Hall of Fame. It only serves to enhance the sport's appeal to learn that every swing of the racket in the US can be traced back to Bermuda, where island adventures still wait for all travelers--tennis lovers included. You' re welcome! 1. What can we learn about BermudaA. It is distant from New York CityB. It is friendly to adventure seekersC. It is unfit to sponsor the U.S. OpenD. It is better known for being the origin of tennis

I took a job at a vet (兽医) clinic almost five decades ago. As an enthusiastic animal lover, I accepted the position on the condition that I wouldn't have to assist with any wounded animals. I couldn't bear to see any creature in pain. At the end of my first week, we were closing the office for the day when a young man ran up to us holding a severely injured Doberman pinscher puppy (杜宾幼犬) in his arms and begging us to save his life. The four-month-old pup had been hit by a car. The doctor and I ran back into the operating room. The only place the skin was still attached to this poor little animal's body was around one shoulder. The vet worked tirelessly for what seemed like hours, sewing him back together again. That was the easy part. The puppy had broken multiple bones, including his spine (脊椎) . If he survived the next few days, we were quite sure he would never walk. That day forever changed my life. I became the vet's assistant in all things medical. One of my first jobs was to give that Doberman puppy daily physical therapy. I remember moving his tiny legs to try to keep his muscles from weakening. Weeks went by until one day, I felt this little fighter push back ever so slightly. And he continued to push back till he could fall use his legs. Fast-forward about a year. I walked into the clinic's crowded waiting room and called the name of the next client. Suddenly, a huge Doberman who had been sanding quietly with his owner on the opposite side of the room broke loose and dashed toward me. I found myself pinned against the wall with this magnificent dog standing on his hind legs, his front paws on my shoulders, washing my face with abundant and joyful kisses! I still tear up in amazement at the display of love and gratitude the dog had for me that day all those years ago. Which was the possible position the author took originally at the clinicA. A medical assistantB. A professional vetC. An enthusiastic volunteerD. A regular receptionist
