Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body, but I also had to deal with my parents bitter divorce， a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded town.When we moved, my beloved panion, a small brown pony had to be sold. I was heartbroken and terribly lonely. I couldnt eat or sleep and cried all the time. Finally, realizing how much I missed my pony, my father bought me another horse, Cowboy.Cowboy was without doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didnt care. I loved him beyond all reasons.I joined a riding club. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse was judged by appearance, we were quickly “shown the gate”. I knew nothing could turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to pete would be in the timed speed events. I chose the jumping race.For the whole next month we practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home, totally exhausted.All of our hard work didnt make me feel confident by the time the show came. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. I sat at the gate and sweated all out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the court and finish in first place.My turn finally came. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped over it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.No cheers filled the air. The end of our run was met with surprising silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds.I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds are, Id always e out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the owner of my fate.年仅13岁的作者承受着家庭的变故且失去了自己心爱的小马，她感到痛苦、孤独。后来，父亲又给她买了一匹马Cowboy，它虽长得丑却给作者带来了许多安慰。在一场比赛中作者明白：只要努力奋斗，每个人都可以主宰自己的命运。5Why did the author like Cowboy so much in spite of its ugliness?ABecause she loved horses more than anything else.BBecause Cowboy was a strong and smart young horse.CBecause Cowboy had a lot in mon with her pony.DBecause she was sad and lonely and needed a panion.答案：D考查推理判断。根据第一段可知，13岁的作者承受着家庭的变故；第二段中介绍作者失去棕色的小矮种马后的伤心与孤独，由此可推知，尽管父亲给她新买的马Cowboy很丑，她还是喜欢有它的陪伴，故选择D项。6The audience fell into silence at the end of the run probably because _.Athey didnt expect Cowboy would win the eventBthey were unhappy that Becky was beaten in the eventCthey didnt like Cowboy, for it was too uglyDthey never saw a horse running as fast as Cowboy答案：A考查推理判断。根据第六段中的“One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events.
