2022年浙江杭州滨江区九上期末英语试卷 ? When I think back to the famous personalities of my teenage years, one name in particular comes to my mind. Strangely, it is not that of an American footballer, even though like other young people of my age, I loved American football and had photos of my favorite players all over my bedroom wall. And believe it or not, it is not the name of one of the many pop groups and stars my friends and I loved. As well as these football and musical heroes, one person was very special. Muhammad Ali, one of the most famous boxers of all time, was my biggest sporting hero. My family werent boxing fans, but we would sit around the TV to watch all of his big fights and would often laugh out loud when Ali was interviewed after the fight. For those younger readers who may not have heard of the great man, Ali was not only a great boxer, he was also a very entertaining speaker. He once famously described his style of boxing,Float like a butterfly, sting (蛰) like a bee. He wasnt always popular. For example, I remember my father arguing with his friends about Alis decision not to serve in the us army. However, my best memories were of the fights he had with another great boxer of the time, Joe Fraiser. Many consider these fights to be the greatest of all time. I dont remember his early successes—his Olympic gold medal or the time when he beat World Heavyweight Champion Sonny Liston in 1964. But memories of his later career (职业) will stay with me for the rest of my life. (1) What is the writer trying to do in the text? A．Describe a personal hero.
