Amelia Earhart lived in Atchison, Kansas.Her parents were Amy and Edwin.She had a sister named Muriel who was named Pidge 2 (介詞)a blue pigeon in her favorite song.She didn’t have a very happy childhood, for her father was an alcoholic(酒鬼).When she became a teenager in World War Ⅰ, she served as a volunteer nurse.After the war, she studied at Columbia University. 3 (從屬連詞)she was doing well in school, she went back to California to be with her parents.One day she went with her father to an“aerial meet”and went on a 10 minute flight over Los Angeles.At that moment, she knew that 4 (fly)was what she wanted to do.
Amelia had heard of a woman aviation teacher, Anita Snook, and 5 (gave/took)flying lessons with her at Kinner Field near Long Beach, California.In July, Amelia bought a plane and named it“The Canary.”In October, 1922, Amelia began breaking world records and 6 (動詞)a women’s highest altitude(海拔高度)record at 14 000 feet.
On April 27, 1926, Mr.H.H.Railey called Amelia and asked,“ 7 (疑問副詞)would you like to be the first woman to fly across the Atlantic?” 8 Mr.Railey had asked by George Putman, a New York Publisher, to find a woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean.(改錯)No woman had ever flown this far across the Atlantic.Since Earhart had no experience with more than one-engine planes, Amelia went on the flight as a passenger.Two men, Wilmer Stultz and Slim Gordon, were 9 (actual)going to fly the plane.On Sunday, June 3,1928, Amelia went to Nova Scotia to start her flight.Some bad weather held the flight back until June 18, though.They flew through dense fog most of the way and landed in South Wales instead of Ireland with only a bit of fuel left.
Amelia got all the attention as the 10 (序數詞)“girl”to fly across the Atlantic.She was upset that the two men who had actually flown the plane didn’t get any attention.

A. Goods for auction (拍賣) sales
B. Definition of bidding
C. Way to sell more goods by auction
D. Auction sales in history
E. Brief introduction to auctions
F. Making a larger profit as an auctioneer
【小題1】______
Auctions are public sales of goods, conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or “bids”, for the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called “knocking down” the goods, for the bidding ends when the auctioneer strikes a small hammer on a table at which he stands.
【小題2】 ______
The ancient Roman probably invented sales by auction, and the English word comes from the Latin auction, meaning “increasing”. The Romans usually sold in this way the goods taken in war. In England in the eighteenth centuries, goods were often sold “by the candle”: a short candle was lit by the auctioneer, and bids could be made while it stayed alight.
【小題3】 ______
Practically all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction. Among these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, silk and wines. Auction sales are also usual for land and property, furniture, pictures, rare books, old china and similar works of art.
【小題4】 ______
An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by potential buyers. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a “lot”, is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and continue in the order of numbers: he may wait until he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots they are likely to be interested in.
【小題5】 ______
The auctioneer’s services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible. He will not waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also play on the opponents among his buyers and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against each other.
