Unit 2　Section Warming Up Reading—Pre-reading Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Dear friends， How exciting it is to host this years Ontario Special Olympics in York Region from July 11 to 14. With events taking place across York Region, including track and field events in the city of Markham, I encourage everyone in our city to come out to cheer on the athletes. My special thanks go to the athletes, and their coaches and families, for all their hard work preparing for the Games. And they go to the many people whove organized and supported the Special Olympics. The warm-up events in support of the Games have been highly successful. Our city is welcoming over 900 athletes, coaches and family members to York Region for the Games, which are part of many Special Olympics events, in which 35,000 people across Canada are competing. Mayor(市长) Frank Scarpitti， City of Markham Dear Ontario Special Olympics， Dylan Eisner is a special needs student at North Lambton Secondary School in Forest, Ontario. He couldnt climb the stairs at North Lambton before he began training with the cross-country team. He is working very hard on his running. He took part in the 2015 season and completed the races in SWOSSA and OFSAA. His family, friends, running mates, coaches and all the staff felt proud of what he had achieved. One of Dylans goals is to someday be a player at the Special Olympics, which is especially help for people with intellectual (智力的) disabilities. Dylan was a special guest at the Lake Smith Conservationists Yearly Dinner this year. The Lake Smith Conservationists, a local environmental organization, decided to give a donation of $1,000 to the Special Olympics in honor of the young runners achievements. They hope that the money will be used to help players like Dylan achieve their dreams. Yours truly， Lake Smith Conservationists Member Dianne Russell 【文章大意】　本文是一篇应用文。文章是关于加拿大安大略省特奥会的两封信。 1．For whom was the first letter mainly written? A．Frank Scarpittis personal friends.
