In 1961 Obama was born in Hawaii, US. His father is an African and his mother is a white American. He grew up in Indonesia and Hawaii.
When Obama was 10 years old, he was one of only three black students at his school in Hawaii. He felt very different from most other students. White girls wanted to touch his hair. A white boy even asked him what his father was.
“I lied to them that my father was a Kenyan prince(王子). But I kept asking myself who I am,” said Obama.
However, 37 years later, the boy made history. Obama became the first black president(總統(tǒng)) in US history.
This unusual background(背景) made him wonder who he was. He once turned to alcohol (酒) to help forget this question.
With the help of his friends, Obama finally turned his life around at college. His hard work made him a star at Harvard. Later, he became only the third black senator (參議員) in US history.
“Obama’s success has made Martin Luther King’s dream come true. That is: A man should not be judged (判斷)by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character,” wrote ABC news.

Americans with small families own a small car or a large one. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van (住房汽車).
A small car can hold (容納) four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowded(擁擠). A van hold seven persons easily, so a family with three children could ask their grandparents to go on a holiday travel. They could all travel together.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the nine o’clock Mystery Hour. Today we’ll show you two British stories. We hope you’ll enjoy them.
About 900 years ago two green children arrived in a small village in south England. Their eyes and skin were green and they spoke a strange language. They were very tired and weak, so the people of the village looked after them. The boy died a year later, but the girl grew strong and lived the rest of her life there. And her skin colour turned back to normal day by day. Scientists say that sometimes of people don’t have enough food to eat for a long time, their skin goes very pale and can even turn green.
Loch Ness is the largest lake in Scotland. It’s a very deep and cold lake. For hundreds of years, people have talked about a monster(怪物) called Nessie which lives in the lake. About seventy years ago, two people saw something moving in the lake. They said that the animal was playing and rolling around in the water. Since then many people say they have seen the monster. Their descriptions are always the same. It looks like a dinosaur, with a very long neck and a small head. It has a big bump(包,腫塊)on its back. People have tried to photograph the animal, but the pictures have not been very clear. Scientists don’t know whether there is a monster or not. Some say it may be a whale or a very large fish. Some think it’s a snake. Others say there’s nothing at all— nothing but people’s imagination. Maybe we’ll never know what’s in Loch Ness.
【小題1】What kind of story is talked about in this programme?
A.Romantic stories. | B.Mysteries. | C.Horror stories. | D.Comedies. |
A.They both enjoyed a long and happy life. |
B.The girl’s eyes and skin were green all her life. |
C.At first they spoke the same language as people in the small village did. |
D.Maybe they hadn’t eaten enough for long before they reached the village. |
A.Scientists are still not sure whether there is a monster or not in Loch Ness. |
B.Loch Ness is very deep and warm lake in Scotland. |
C.People have taken very clear pictures of Nessie. |
D.In fact Nessie is a whale or a snake. |
