Louisville, Kentucky is a place where basketball is an important part of life, and 1 my son to an NBA exhibition game is very special.Little did I realize how 2 the evening was going to be! My son 3 my hand as we crossed the Kentucky Fairgrounds parking lot 4
for famous Freedom Hall.Being eight years old, he 5 felt it was okay to hold his father's hand, and I felt grateful, knowing that these kind of moments would pass all too soon.
The stadium holds nineteen - thousand - plus fans, and it definitely looked like a sellout(滿座) as the masses 6 .We had been to many University of Louisville basketball games and even a few University of Kentucky games in this hallowed hall, but the expectation of 7 Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls against the Washington Bullets sped up our 8 across the massive parking lot, guessing how the game was going to go.
The turnstile (回轉(zhuǎn)門) clicked and Josh 9 his souvenir ticket stub(票根)like he had just won the lottery (彩票)! We pushed our way to the upper - level seats of the "true" fans.Before we knew it, the game was 10 and the battle had begun.
During a time out, we dashed for the hot dog and Coke and hurried back 11 we wouldn't 12 a single lay up or jump shot.Things were going as expected until halftime.I started to talk to some friends nearby when my arm was 13 by a determined young person, and he began 14 a multicolored, woven yarn bracelet(編制手鏈) around my wrist.
It 15 really well, and he was really focused intently as he carefully made a double square knot to keep it 16 .I recognized the 17 of the moment, and wanting him to be
18 with my insightful skills, I told him 19 how I knew this was a "friendship bracelet" and said, "I guess this means we are 20 ." Without missing a beat, he exclaimed (大呼), "We're more than friends.You're my dad!"
I don't even remember the rest of the game.

The story of how the song “Happy Birthday to You”came into being, began as a sweet one, which later soured. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at the Louisville, Kentucky Experimental Kinder-garten(幼兒園), and Dr Patty Hill, the principal(院長(zhǎng),負(fù)責(zé)人)of the same school, together wrote a song for the children, entitled “Good Morning to All”. When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sister's expertise(專長(zhǎng))in the area of Kin-dergarten Education, “Good Morning to All”was sure to be a success.
The sisters published the song in a collection entitled “Song Stories of the Kindergarten”in 1893. Twenty-one years later, after Dr Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University's Teacher College, a gentleman by the name of Robert H. Coleman published the song, without the sisters' permission. To add insult(侮辱)to injury, he added a second verse, the familiar “Happy Birthday to You”.
Mr Coleman's addition of the second verse popularized the song and, finally, the sisters' original first verse disappeared. “Happy Birthday to You”, the one and only birthday song, had altogether replaced the sisters' original title, “Good Morning to All”.
After Mildred died in 1916, Patty, together with a third sister named Jessica, took Mr Coleman to court. In court, they proved that they, indeed(確定), owned the melody(曲調(diào)). Because the family legally owns the song, it is entitled to royalties(版稅)from it, whenever it is sung for commercial(商業(yè)的)purposes.
(1)The first verse of the song was written for ________.
[ ]
A.Patty Hill's children
B.Mildred Hill's children
C.Mr Coleman's students
D.the students in a kindergarten
(2)Mr Coleman published the song and added a second verse in ________.
[ ]
(3)What does the underlined word “soured”probably mean?
[ ]
A.Had an unpleasant taste.
B.Got angry easily.
C.Became unpleasant.
D.Turned out well.
(4)Which of the following statements is NOT true?
[ ]
A.With permission from the Hill sisters, Mr Coleman published the song and added a second verse to the song.
B.The second verse made the song popular and, at last, the first verse disappeared.
C.Patty and Jessica took Robert H. Coleman to court after Mildred died.
D.The Hill's family legally owns the melody.
