california and all around the pacific ocean. the cities of los angeles, san francisco and tokyo are completely destroyed by earthquakes. millions of people in the southern half of the earth are already dead, but the north wont escape for long. because of the explosions, the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, and temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. crops are ruined. the sun wont be seen again for many years. wars break out as countries fight for food. a year later, no more than 10 million remain alive.could it really happen? in fact, it has already happened more than once in

teacher asked the youth his name.“ j.c,” he replied.she thought he had said “jesse”, and he had a new name.owens ran his first race at age 13. after high school, he went to ohio state university. he had to work part time so as to pay for his education. as a second-year student, in the big ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the olympic games a year later.a week before the big ten meet, owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. his back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. he refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. he did try, and the results are in the record book.the stage was set for owens victory at the olympic games in berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic(体育的) but also political. hitler did not congratulate any of the african-american winners.“it was all right with me,” he said years later. “i didnt go to berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”having returned from berlin, he received no telephone call form the president of his own country, either. in fact, he was not honored by the united states until 1976, four years before his death.owens olympic victories made little difference to him. he earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.“sure, it bothered(烦扰) me,” he said later. “but at least it was an honest living. i had to eat.”in time, however, his gold medals(奖牌)
