Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题): (14 分)Annie Oakley was born in 1860 in Ohio. Living on a farm, she quickly learned to shoot （射击）. When only 9 years old, she brought in small animals to the family table. By 16, she was selling some of the animals she shot for food. Thus she helped pay off the mortgage (按揭) on the family farm.One day in 1876, Annie heard of famous Frank Butler. He was travelling about the country performing his shooting on stage. He often accepted challenges（挑战）from people who thought they could outshoot him, but they almost never did. When Annie heard about him, she became excited. Ill bet I can beat him, she thought. There was only one way to find out. She would challenge him. But would he accept a challenge from a girl? A girl who was only 16? He did accept. It was a close match, but Annie won by a single point. Impressed with Annies skill, Butler asked her to join his show. She did, and she soon became not only the star of the show but also Mrs. Butler.Some years later, Annie and Frank joined the famous Buffalo Bill Wild West Show. The cowboys, Native Americans, Pony Express riders, bucking broncos, and stagecoaches each gave their performance. But the favourite of the audiences was usually Annie Oakley. Annies fame （名声）spread far and wide. To show her excellent skill, she shot in half a playing card from 30 paces and consistently shot a dime flipped in the air. Most breathtaking of all was her shooting off a cigarette held between her husbands lips.Many stones grew about Annie s shooting ability. The following story is rather exaggerated（夸张）. One afternoon, Annie saw a raccoon（浣熊）alone up a tree. She quickly clapped her gun to her shoulder and was about to shoot when the raccoon lifted a paw and said, Is your name Annie Oakley?Youre right, .Annie said.“Then,” said the raccoon, “you can let down your gun. I may as well come down.” With that the animal walked right down from the tree because he considered himself shot.99.
