Trapped in Europe with air travel shut down during the COVID pandemic（流行?。﹊n 2020，Juan Ballestero had just one means to return to his native Argentina to be home with his parents-sailing across the Atlantic.He wanted to be reunited with his 82-year-old mother and his 90-year-old father.The 47-year-old did just that，sailing from Portugal on his 29-foot boat during a nearly three-month journey that included battling storms，dangerous waves and even escaping from what he thought were pirates off Africa's coast，and finally arrived in his hometown in June.
   The Argentine man said he planned the trip in just 24 hours after learning that flights to his home country had been canceled.Ballestero，who lives in Spain，was in Portugal when the local government announced strict lockdown（封鎖）measures and the country was closed to the rest of the world.He grabbed the 200 euros he had saved，loaded his sailboat with 160 cans of food and a bottle of whiskey，and set sail.He made the journey because he was sure the lockdown measures were going to be in place for a long time and he wanted to be with his family soon.
   He recalled being stopped by authorities and not allowed to enter Cape Verde in Africa to load up more food and fuel in case he needed to complete part of his journey with the boat's motor.He nearly got into a gunfight at night when a ship with bright lights seemed to be following him so he had to go as fast as possible.Besides，Ballestero almost lost the mast（桅桿）of the boat when the wave brushed him from above.The boat went over and a cable broke.Luckily，he got his boat fixed in Brazil.
   Ballestero said the important thing was his reunion with his parents. "I'll plant a garden and buy three chickens.I'll make it through the winter with the old people，" he said. "I want to be with the family."

1．Sidney Keys，14-year-old，has started a youth-led book club program，with the support and help of his mom，to help empower both himself and many other boys with mental or physical problems through literature.
   Keys' idea to create Books N Bros was born from his own setbacks and struggles. "I used to have a really bad stutter and perform badly in school and I would get laughed at for it，" Sidney Keys，the founder of the book club Books N Bros said. "Reading was kind of my escape from my stutter because in my head I was able to imagine things and play out all the events clearly." He said， "I wanted to start up Books N Bros so that I could talk to other people，especially boys，about books I love in a relaxing way because it's like a brotherhood."
   The reading club that he started at just 10 years old now has over 250"bros"aged 7 to 13 from the U.S.and Canada，most of whom are changing actively and positively.Marvel's Hero Project，which reveals the remarkable，positive change young men make in their communities across the country and turns them into superheroes，selected Keys to be featured in the Disney series.
   "I always wanted to read books that had characters that looked like me，but now I see a comic book with me in it，" Keys said delightedly. "It's really awesome，especially when I hear my friends and teachers call me my superhero name at school."
   As for the future of Books N Bros，Keys and his mom hope to expand the programs reach throughout the country. "Getting Books N Bros in schools across America，we don't want transportation to be an issue for getting that physical brotherhood and bond.It just benefits so many people，and it keeps me going，" Keys explained.

（1）What caused Sidney Keys to build Books N Bros？

A．His mother's support.
B．His poor school performance.
C．His own sufferings.
D．His literature experience.
（2）Why was Keys chosen by Marvel's Hero Project？

A．Because he was called a superhero by people.
B．Because he made a difference to other people.

（3）How did Keys feel when seeing himself in a comic book？

3．My First Marathon（馬拉松） A month before my first marathon，one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks，leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet，I was determined to go ahead.
   I remember back to my 7th year in school.In my first P.E.class，the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn't do either well.He later informed me that I was "not athletic".
   The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years.When I started running in my 30s，I realized running was a battle against myself，not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills!
   The night before my marathon，I dreamed that I couldn't even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous，but ready to prove something to myself.
   Shortly after crossing the start line，my shoe laces（鞋帶）became untied.So I stopped to readjust.Not the start I wanted!
   At mile 3，I passed a sign："GO FOR IT，RUNNERS!"
   By mile 17，I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain，I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
   By mile 21，I was starving!
   As I approached mile 23，I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m.or questioned my expenses on running.
   I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished!And I got a medal.In fact，I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
   Determined to be myself，move forward，free of shame and worldly labels（世俗標(biāo)簽），I can now call myself a "marathon winner".

（1）A month before the marathon，the author

.
A．was well trained
B．felt scared
C．made up his mind to run
D．lost hope
（2）Why did the author mention the P.E.class in his 7th year？

A．To acknowledge the support of his teacher.
B．To amuse the readers with a funny story.
C．To show he was not talented in sports.
D．To share a precious memory.
（3）How was the author's first marathon？

A．He made it.
B．He quit halfway.
C．He got the first prize.
D．He walked to the end.
（4）What does the story mainly tell us？

A．A man owes his success to his family support.
B．A winner is one with a great effort of will.
C．Failure is the mother of success.
D．One is never too old to learn.
