Like many lovers of books, Mary and her husband, Richard Goldman, s1. walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often talked of opening their own store one day. In o2. to realize their wish, they started by talking to bookstore owners and researching(调查) the industry. One figure caught their attention: they’d read some- where that roughly 20 percent of books sold were mysteries(推理小说), and many buyers spent more than 300 a year on books. Mary and Richard were t3. mystery readers and owned a big collection of such books. On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Cafe near their home. With three children in college it was i4. for the couple to spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the whole $100, 000 cost, they drew some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank. The store broke even in its first year, with only $120,000 in sales. But Mary was always coming up with new ways to a5. customers. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered gifts to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited dozens of writers to d6. their stories. Today Mystery Lovers make sales of about 420,000 a year. After paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34,000. “The job you love may not go hand in hand with a million-dollar income,” says Richard. “This has always been about an e7. life for ourselves, not about making a lot of money.

Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案) The word “sport” first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen(职业运动员). They may be sportsmen for only few years, but during that time the best one can earn a lot of money. For example, a professional football in England earns more than $ 30,000 a year. The stars earn lot more. International golf(高尔夫球) and tennis champions(网球锦标赛) can make more than $ 50,000 in a year. Of course, only few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. It is possible in sports for individuals like golf, tennis and motor-racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: The stars can earn more money from advertising than from sport. An advertisement for sports equipment(运动装备) does not simply say “Buy our thing”. It says “Buy the same shirt and shoes as ...” Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or photographs of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time. 1.The word “sport” now usually means __________. A.organized games B.hunting wild animals and birds C.games played during people’s spare time D.professional games 2.“Professional” sportsman is someone who __________. A.earns a lot of money B.plays a sport for a number of years C.likes sport very much D.earns money by playing a sport 3.Famous sports stars can earn __________ money from advertising than sport.

C.If a company uses the photos of a famous sportsman, they will pay for him. D.The author(作者) tells us three different meanings of the word “sport” in the passage. 6.Which is the best title of this passage? A.Sport and Money B.Sports Games C.People’s Spare Time D.Professional Sportsmen
