Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake City 2002 Olympic Games．In that Olympics he only got 24th． "I was hopeless at that time，but my family and the coach stood firmly behind me，helping me through"，he recalled．

5．"Never set foot in this house again!" shouted father． "Bang! "The door closed behind me．With tears in my eyes，I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street．
The street lights were shining，causing rather sad feelings．I wandered（游荡） aimlessly．
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me．I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space：happy and carefree．
But now…I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old．We differ in our ways of thinking．He always puts his opinions on me．We are just like two people coming from two different worlds．It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened．
I wandered in the streets，without any aim in my mind．As I walked on，there were fewer and fewer people in the streets．When I finally reached the apartment where I lived，I saw that the light was still on．
I thought to myself： "Is father waiting for me，or is he still angry with me？"
In fact，it was nothing．Perhaps，dad was throwing away some of his old stamps．Perhaps he thought they were useless．I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps．All the lights were off except father's
Dad was always like this．Maybe he didn't know how to express himself．After shouting at me，he never said sorry to me．But after an argument he always came into my room secretly and made sure whether I was asleep．
This was how he always was．He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature（天性）．
The light was still on． "Am I wrong？" I whispered，maybe…With the key in hand，I was as nervous as I had ever been．At last，I decided to open the door．As soon as I opened the door，tears ran down my cheeks．I suddenly realized that the iron door I had imagined between us did not exist at all．Love-it's second to none．

（1）How many readers support the idea of free museums？6 www．youthnews
https：//www．youthnews/yourviewYOUTH
NEWS News School Life Your View SportShould Museum Entry Be Free
With International Museum Day coming up，today we are asking readers：Should museums be free or should people have to pay for a ticket？Let us know your view．
Comments
Museums are not only there for enjoyment；they are education．This is why they must be free．While museums need a huge amount of money to operate，let the wealthy pay for it．The idea of a person or child interested in art not being able to view it because of cost is wrong
Krista Chen（US）-Age 15
Free entry does not attract people or encourage them to appreciate art．Generally people respect things that are difficult or costly to get Museums should require regular visitors to pay a fee，but provide free tickets as prizes for high-achieving students who can appreciate them more
Fred Smith（New Zealand）-Age 14
Museums teach people about their past．This is part of our shared culture that should be available to everyone，rich or poor People should never be asked to pay an entrance fee．
Rob Sanchez （Australia）-Age 17
There are no simple answers．Low ticket prices could help museums stay open．But companies and businessmen should also provide museums with more money and other support．They have a social responsibility too．
Amber White （UK）-Age 16
I think museums and art galleries should all be free to the public．I do，however，think twice a year the museums should organize money-raising events to help pay for the cost of staying open．
Li Mishao（China）-Age 15
A．2
B．3
C．4
D．5
