11、Passage Five
In 1924,Nordic ski events were held at the first Winter Olympics in Chamonix,France．But the American skiers came home without medals．Norway took most of the medals for cross-country and ski jumping events that year．They did the same for many years after．From 1924 through 1972,the American skiers had no medals to show for their Olympic trips．The U．S．was generally thought to be weak in ski competition
But in 1974 it was discovered that the U．S．record was slightly better than people had been led to believe．And Norway's record was not quite as good．The discovery was a surprise and a delight to American ski fans,but even more so to American skier Anders Haugen．After fifty years,Anders got the medal he should have won back in 1924．

13、The earliest immigrants to North America found Indians already living there．The Indians numbered about 500,000 at that time．Their society was a primitive society,but they lived peacefully and welcomed the white strangers to the land．However,these early immigrants from Europe didn't want to share the land with the natives．They killed off many of the Indians,seized their land or pushed them off to lands farther away．Today the Indians,not more than half a million,live in poverty and misery on the land on which they were once masters.
The earliest immigrants were the Spanish,who settled in the southern part of what is now the US．The next large group were the English,after the English came the French,Dutch,Irish,Germans,and other nationality groups,mostly European.
Another early group to arrive were the Negroes．But they were brought in as slaves from Africa．They didn't win freedom till generations later.
Who were the earliest people living in North America?

14、Can animals be made to work for us?Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings.
They point out that at a circus,for example,we may see elephants,monkeys,dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things．Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film．If you watch closely,you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward．The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them.
Of course,as we know,dogs can be used to guard a house,and soldiers in both old and modem times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near．But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories．In Russia,for example,pigeons which are birds with good eyesight,are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory．When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others,it touches a steel plate with its beak．This turns on a light to warn people in the factory．At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward．It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3 000 to 4 000 balls an hour.
Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars,and scientists believe that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.
What made scientists think animal can be made to work for us one day?

15、Some people do not like anything to be out of place;they are never late for work;they return their books on time to the library;they remember people's birthdays;and they pay their bills as soon as they arrive．Mr．Hill is such a man.
Mr．Hill works in a bank,and lives alone．The only family he has is in the next town:his sister lives there with her husband,and her son,Jack．Mr．Hill does not see his sister,or her family,from one year to the next,but he sends them Christmas cards,and he has not forgotten one of Jack's seventeen birthdays.
Last week Mr．Hill had quite a surprise．He drove home from the bank at the usual time,driving neither too slowly nor too fast;he parked his car where he always parked it,out of the way of other cars,and he went inside to make his evening meal．Just then,there was a knock at the door．He opened the door,to find a policeman standing on the door-step.
"What have I done wrong?"Mr．Hill asked himself．"Have I driven on the wrong side of the road?Has there been some trouble at the bank?Have I forgotten to pay an important bill?"
"Hello,Uncle,"said the policeman,"My name is Jack."
Mr．Hill__.

16、We first think of the traditional or nuclear family．This is a two-generation family,the father and the mother and their own children．Most couples wanted to have four children,two boys,two girls.
Some nuclear families,however,may add one or more grandparents to come to live with them,that is three generations．This kind of family with grandparents,parents,and grandchildren is called an extended family．This family type was not very common during the later half of the twentieth century,but it's becoming more common now as an elderly grandparent moves in to live with a son or daughter．This is more possible now that American homes have become larger．What is interesting,however,is that after the grandchildren move out of the home and start their own families,this extended family shrinks back to a nuclear family,with just two generations again living together,a grandparent and parents,with the grandchildren coming only for occasional visits．
Now,the fatherless or motherless family is one kind of what we call a single-parent family．In the fatherless family it's just the mother and her children．As I said,this can be the result of the husband's death,of an unmarried mother,of a separation or divorce．There are also a growing number of motherless families--where the father raises the children,for any of the same reasons．A motherless family may also be fatherless,but still a family with one adult．This is becoming more common in the big cities where a grandmother will raise her daughter's children while the daughter goes elsewhere to work.
One other new kind of family is becoming increasingly more common．A single parent with one or more children will marry again．Perhaps the other parent is also a single parent．Together they will start what is called a blended family,which blends together or combines the children from two other families.
What is true to the fact in America?
