【解析】本文是一篇人物介紹。講述小時候因患癌癥失去右腿的Jeff Keith為了與命運抗爭而跑步穿越美國的勵志故事。
（1）C細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段When he was 12 years old, Jeff had cancer. Doctors had to cut off most of his right leg.可知他12歲的時候患癌癥，醫(yī)生不得不鋸掉他的右腿的大部分。
（2）D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段Jeff Keith ran across the United States from the east to the west. He started running in Boston.可知波斯頓在東部。所以選D。
（3）B數(shù)字計算題。根據(jù)第三段Seven months later, he stopped running in Los Angeles. He ran 3, 200 miles.7個月應該是半年多，三十個周左右，兩百多天。故選B。
（4）C詞義猜測。根據(jù) Jeff is disabled, but he can do many things. 杰夫是殘疾的，但是他能做很多事情。結合上文他沒有右腿，不難猜出disabled意思為"殘疾的”。
