Task 2
Directions: This task is the same as Task 1.The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.

Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood—a poor, crowded area where a boy's dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer.For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beatles, has had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years.And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums(贫民区) of Belfast.
