Do you like running enough to make it a habit? Tierney Wolfgram does; she has made running a lifelong career and isn't stopping.
In February, the 16-year-old from a high school,US, competed at the 2020 US Olympic Trials, She finished the marathon (42. 195 km) with a time of 2:42' 47"as the youngest competitor in the race and ranked 76th out of 390 runners. However, the cross- country season was postponed to winter because of the COVID-19. So she jumped at the opportunity to train for another race—the Parkway Marathon in California. In November, Wolfgram broke the Women’s American Junior marathon record with her time of 2:31'49". The old record was 2:34'32", which had stood since 1984.
“I'm completely stunned, ” said Wolfgram's coach. “I knew she was going to break it, but she really showed out!”
During the run, Wolfgram once hit a wall pretty hard, but she overcame it to finish. “I guess I can say I gave it my all, ” she told Runner's World.“ When I finished, all I was thinking was I felt super happy,”Wolf-gram said.This was only her third marathon. In 2018 ,when Wolfgram was 15 years old, she ran her first marathon just because she wanted to see if she had the ability to do it. “I believed that I would get faster as the distances got longer... I'm still glad that I did it.”
When preparing for that first marathon, she ran up to 120 miles per week. Although her parents didn't have any background in running, they helped Wolfgram train.At first, her dad would take her out in the morning and run about 13 miles. The distance would gradually increase each day. On top of her runs in the morning, she would do cross-country practice after school.
Now Wolfgram will consider attending the Olympics Games in 2024 after it's scheduled.
4. What can we learn about Wolfgram fromParagraph 2?
A. She was the champion at the 2020 USOlympic Trials.
B. She put off the cross country seasonfor the COVID-19.
C.She broke an Olympic marathon recordin November.
D. She prepared for the Parkway Marathon in California.
5. Whatdoestheunderlinedword“stunned” in Paragraph 3 mean_______?
A. DoubtfulB. Worried C. ShockedD. Interested
6. What inspired Wolfgram to run her firstmarathon?
A. Her parents' encouragement.B Her desire to prove she could do it.
C. Her coach's support and help.D. Her hope to break the national record.
7. Which section of a newspaper does thepassage probably come from?
A. SportsB. LifestyleC. CultureD. Opinion
C
Picture a pigeon resting on a telephone wire.Ready for takeoff, it raises its wings, springs into the
 air and flies away. This series of actions are so common that you probably do not pay much attention to it. But University of Manchester biomechanical(生物力学）engineer BenParslew does.He is trying 
to design robots that can jump and take off like birds.
Most traditional robots roll around on wheels, constraining mobility. “There is a need for more intelligent robots that can jump over the thing that is in their way,” Parslew says. To design such a 
machine, he turned to nature. “Birds are really good jumpers,” he notes.
The trouble is, when birds start to take off, they’ll bend so far forward that, according to the rulesof physics,they should tip over and fall onto their beaks (鸟喙). Yet that does not happen.Parslew and 
his team used computer modeling to discover how birds avoid this. They discovered that birds turned
 their bodies slightly backward while ready to jump.
Parslewthinks engineers can use this information to design robots that can not only jump well
 but also send themselves into the air more efficiently. Most human-engineered flying machines requireeither long runways or flat surfaces for takeoff. Either way , they take a while to overcome 
gravity and gain altitude.
Universityof Southern California biomechanist MichaelHabib,who was not involved in the
study, says springsenable more rapid speed than wheels do. And many animals are masters of 
springs. “A house cat will beat a Lamborghini off the line for the first 100 feet,”  he says. While the
 car has to speed up, the cat jumps itself into a run. The same movement explains how birds start
flight.
“If you can understand how that works,”Habib adds, “you can build a robot that's good at running around and good at flying, and it will also be good at taking offsuddenly in all kinds of conditions
and landing quickly on a dime. ” Parslew is now designing such a robot, as an alternative to wheeled
 plane for exploring other planets.
8. Why do birds' takeoff actions catch Ben Parslew's attention?
A. Because he is fond ofwild animals.
B. Because he wants to design robots that can jump and take off like birds.
C. Because he is a biomechanical engineer.
D. Because he is curious about nature.
9. The underlined word “constraining” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to“_________ ”
A. improving B. robbing C. continuing D. limiting
10. What will happen when birds start to take off?
A.They will jump first before taking off.
B. They will tip over and fall onto their beaks.
C. They will make their bodies slightly backward.
D. It will take birds a while to overcome gravity and fly to the sky.
11. What is the meaning of researching birds' takeoff?
A. Making robot jump and take off like birds.B. Improving the ability of a plane.
C. Inventing a robot which can speed up quickly.D. Making robots fly more efficiently.
D
If all goes well, a balloon will soon rise from SpaceCenter in Sweden. It will float high into theupper atmosphere, where nothing will happen, and then return toEarth. Nevertheless , a collection of environmental groupsis trying to stop it.
The campaigners are against the flight because of whatcomes next. The balloon is a test flight for a research being run by the University of Harvard. The research aims totest an idea called SAI, in which fine dust is added into theupper atmosphere to boost the amount of sunlight reflectedback into space. A future flight will release a small amountof calcium carbonate dust into the upper atmosphere, inorder to help researchers learn more about solar geoengineering— an excellent but theoretical idea of deliberatelyadjusting the Earth’s systems to prevent the bad effects ofclimate change.
Opponents worry about two things. The first is themoral issue. If solar geoengineering works, it could reducepressure to deal with climate change at its source by cutting greenhousegas emissions.Furthermore, in order tokeep temperatures low, the reflective particles (颗粒 )would have to be topped up continuously. A sudden stopcould result in very rapid warming.Raymond Pierrehumbert, a physicist at the University of Oxford, says solargeoengineering is too risky even to research outside ofcomputer simulations (模拟).
Not all environmentalists are opposed. The world islikely to miss the target, set in the Paris agreement, ofkeeping warming to 1.5℃. “We're not well-served by notunderstanding what these technologies represent,”saysSteven Hamburg. Mr. Hamburg favors small-scale geoengineering research. Other green organizations have alsohesitantly approved of exploring the idea.
Exploration is likely to carry on in any case. Once ataboo, geoengineering is being taken increasingly seriously. A recent report on climate change suggested that SAIcould help keep warming below 1.5℃. America has developed a research plan for solar geoengineering.Both Chinaand India have launched research programmesof theirown. Activists will continue to oppose experiments. Butballoons will likely fly anyway.
12.How does solar geoengineering work?
A. Dust is put into the upper atmosphere to trap more heat..
B. Measures are taken intentionally totackle the climate change.
C. Steps are taken deliberately to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
D. Dust is emptied into the atmosphereto reflect sunlight into Earth.
13. Why do environmentalists argue againstSAI?
A.It istobe implemented on a largescale.
B. It has led to global warming againstthe original intention.
C. It is probably to miss the target ofkeeping warming to 1.5C.
D. It may cause people to care little about greenhouse gas emissions.
14. What is the best title of the text?
A. Should balloons , flight be banned?
B. Should solar geoengineering exploration go ahead?
C. How do balloons threaten the earth'sclimate?
D. How has solar geoengineering changedEarth?
15. What is the author's attitude to solargeoengineering?
A. CriticalB.DoubtfulC. PositiveD. Frightened

Beauty trends that are bad for your health
Nowadays, women and men are going to extreme lengths to look good.  16 . Take a look at some beauty trends that aren’t so good for your health.
Tanning (晒成棕褐色)
Despite the serious health risks linked with indoor tanning, many Americans, particularly teens, still sit under sunlamps and on tanning beds to get a bronzed look.  Indoor tanning beds and sunlamps give out UV radiation that can damage the skin, which can lead to premature skin aging, skin burns, eye damage and skin cancer. Nearly 28 million people tan indoors in the United States annually.  17 .
Braids (辫子) and weaves
 18 . This type of hair loss occurs on the top of the head and can spread throughout the head. Braids and weaves are common hair treatments in the African-American community.  19 , so they may be kept for weeks or months at a time to justify the money spent.
Contact lenses (隐形眼镜) that widen your eyes
Contact lenses that make your eyes appear bigger could cause serious vision problems. Consumers risk significant eye injuries and even blindness when they buy contact lenses without a valid prescription or help from an eye professional. The lenses have not been approved by the FDA, and it’s illegal to sell them in the U.S.  20 . The lenses have become particularly popular among teenage girls.
A. Of these, 2.3 million are teens
B. The treatments can be expensive
C. It may cause redness, swelling and pain
D. Therefore, they are extremely expensive

 to do it.(她跑了第一次马拉松。仅仅因为她想看看自己是否有能力做这个)”可知，她跑第一次的马拉松就是想证明自己能做到。故选B项。
7.A推理判断题。 根据文章首句“Do you like running enough to make it a habit?"以及全文围绕Wolfgram的马拉松职业生涯展开可知，本文的主题和体育运动相关，故这篇文章可能来自报纸的体育部分。故选A项。
阅读理解C这是一篇科普类文章。科学家通过研究鸟的起飞动作，希望“机器人像鸟一样跳跃和起飞”
8.B推理判断题。 根据第一段最后一 句“He is trying to design robots that can jump and take off like birds.(他正在尝
试设计能像鸟一样跳跃和起飞的机器人。)”可知，鸟的起飞动作之所以会引起本.帕尔斯特的注意是因为他想设计能像鸟一样跳跃和起飞的机器人。故选B。

12. B 细节理解题。根据第二段关键句The research aims to test an idea called SAI, in which fine dust is added into the upper atmosphere to boost the amount of sunlight reflected back into space.(这项研究的目的是测试一种叫作SAI的想法，即向大气层中加入细粉尘,以增加反射回太空的阳光量)和第二段中的solar geoengineering an excellent but theoretical idea of deliberately adjusting the Earth's systems to prevent the bad effects of climate change. (太阳地球工程很好但只是理论上的构想，有意调整地球的系统，以防止气候变化的不良影响)可知，这个太阳地球工程是来采取措施应对气候变化。故选B项。
13. D细节理解题。根据第三段关键If solar geoengineering works, it could reduce pressure to deal with climate change at its source by cutting greenhouse -gas emissions. (如果太阳地球工程奏效,它可能从源头上减少温室气体排放，应对气候变化的压力)可知，太阳地球工程可能会导致人们对温室气体排放的不再关心。根据上文可知，环保人士真正担心的是全球气候变暖根本原因是因为温室气体的排放，如果太阳地球工程通过向大气层释放细尘，减少太阳光线向地球的反射,缓解了全球变暖，那么温室气体排放这一根本原因就会被忽视。故选D项。
14. B主旨大意题。文章第一段通过If all goes well, a balloon will soon rise from Space Center in Sweden. ( 如果一切顺利,一个气球将很快从瑞典的航天中心升起)通过“balloon(气球)”飞人太空引出“solar geoengineering(太阳地球工程)”,在第二段中介绍了这一工程的目的。第三段中介绍了反对者之所以反对的原因,简单说明了这一工程的隐患。第四段介绍这一工程有隐患，但部分人并不反对，有些更建议小范围实验。最后一段，无论如何针对这一工程的研究有可能仍将继续,并介绍了各国的进展。由此可知，本文从人们对太阳地球工程面临的争议、各方的态度，推测这一工程是否应当继续。“Should solar geoengineering exploration go ahead?(太阳地球工程勘探应该继续进行吗?)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选B项。
15.C推理判断题。根据第五段关键句“Exploration is likely to carry on in any case. (无论如何，勘探都有可能继续进行)”和A recent report on climate change suggested that SAI could help keep warming below 1.5C. (最近一份关于气候变化的报告指出SAI有助于将气候变暖控制在1.5 C以下)”可知作者对这一工程的态度是乐观积极的。故选C项。
七选五主主题语境：人与自我——生活本文是说明文。文章介绍了三个危害健康的美妆潮流。

语法填空
41.that/which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，此处引导定语从句，修饰先行词her unmistakable poetic voice, 关系词在从句中作主语。
42.distinguished 考查词性转换。该空修饰名词award,故填distinguish的形容词形式。
43.to receive 考查非谓语动词。此处是动词不定式短语作后置定语。
44.won考查时态和不规则动词变化。
45.but 考查并列连词。空格前后两个分句存在转折关系，故填but。
46.the 考查冠词。根据空格后的序数词16th可知，该空填定冠词the.
47. has published 考查时态和主谓一致。根据句中的时间状语sofar可知，此处应使用现在完成时;主语为Glück,谓语用单数形式。
48.themes 考查名词的数。根据空格后的 family relationships，divorce and death.可知，该空填名词的复数形式。49.loneliness 考查词性转换。根据family relationships和divorce and death可知，该空应填lonely 的名词形式。
50.buying 考查非谓语动词。根据空格前的介词of可知，该空填动词的-ing形式。
短文改错
①me改为I。代词主格和宾格的混用。本句是so引导的个例装句，助动词后是该分句的主语，应该用主格，所以将me改为I。
②the改为a。固定搭配误用。As a matter of fact为固定搭配，意为“事实上”，所以将the改为a。
③had改为has。动词的时态误用。根据该句中的时间状语since my childhood和语境可以判断，此处应用现在完成时，且主语为being a scientist,所以将had改为has。
④help改为helping. 动词形式误用。devote oneself to. ..为固定用法，o是介词，其后一般跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语,所以将help改为helping。
⑤problem改为problems。 名词的单复数误用。根据句意可知，科学家们全力倾注于解决我们生活中的难题,problem为可数名词，此处指的难题不止一个，应用复数形式，所以将problem改为problems。
⑥hardly改为hard。副词误用。此处表示“他们努力地工作”，应用副词hard。副词hardly 意为“几乎不”，与句意不符，所以把hardly改为hard。
⑦asking后加for。介词漏用。ask for为固定用法，意为“请:求,要求”，符合语境，所以需要在asking后加for.
⑧god改为better。 形容词形式误用。根据语境可知，此处应表示“如果我能成为一名科学家，我确信我将把世界变得:更美好”，有比较的含义，所以将good改为better。
⑨Therefore改为However。 副词误用。上句“我知道这不:是容易的事情”和下句“我相信我的梦想会成真”之间为转折关系，所以将Therefore改为However。
⑩删除will后的be。语态误用。come true 为固定用法，意为“实现，成为现实”，无被动语态，所以将be删除。
