Ⅱ.[主旨大意] “我”13岁时唯一的想法是成为学校足球队的明星,这意味着“我”必须打败Miller King——校队最好的球员。但是就在九月前Miller被车撞了,失去了右臂。那个赛季“我”打破了所有Miller的纪录,成为最有价值的球员,但是“我”经常做要对Miller事故负责的噩梦,直到有一天下午“我”帮助困在围栏中的Miller摆脱困境,Miller告诉“我”在那个赛季“我”做得很好,感谢“我”代替了他,他的话使“我”如释重负,也使“我”更加敬佩他。
13.A 根据上一句可知“我”想成为校足球队的明星,这也就意味着“我”要打败Miller,可推测Miller是一名运动员。故选A。
14.D “work out”在体育方面指运动选手训练,锻炼,参加训练课程以达到良好的竞技状态。这句话的意思是整个暑假“我”都在训练。故选D。
