At the Winter Olympic Games in Schi, Russia, halfway in the wmen’s slalm (障碍滑雪) race, 18-year-ld Mikaela Shiffrin tk a cmmanding lead ver the greatest wmen’s slalm skiers in the wrld. On her final run, she burst frm the start huse at a breakneck speed, snaking arund the ples in crazy rhythm.

Wrking hard is a full-time jb fr Mikaela. Even her ff-seasn is wrk time. In the summer, when Mikaela is ff the ski slpes and in the gym, her daily training cnsists f six t seven hurs f weight lifting, swimming, and biking t imprve her cre strength and flexibility. She des all f this s that she can dash dwn slpes at speeds tpping 50 miles per hur while cutting back and frth arund gates with astnishing precisin.

Parrts are prey animals, which means that ther predatrs (捕食者) in the wild, such as hawks r snakes, are lking t make them int a meal. This ne factr influences parrts’ behavir in yur huse mre than any ther.
Parrts are mst easily hurt when feeding n the grund; membership in a grup plays an imprtant functin in ensuring their safety and imprving their chances f survival frm attacks by predatrs. The mst cmmn predatrs f parrts include hawks, snakes, cats, mnkeys, and bats. Sme predatrs make attacks nly during the day while thers hunt in the night.
As prey animals, parrts are cnstantly watching ut fr danger and they instinctively (本能地) react t risks. Their first chice is t take flight. Hwever, if this is nt pssible, they will fight with their pwerful beaks t defend themselves.
Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrts are especially reactive t quick mvements frm abve and behind. Fr this reasn, it is wise t avid quick, sudden mvements near yur bird. This is a built-in reactin nt subject t lgic r reasn. Simple and relatively harmless husehld bjects can draw extreme fear respnses frm a bird. Fr example, a balln may represent a hawk r a vacuum hse (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in yur bird’s mind.
As prey animals, parrts are ften frightened by expsure t new husehld items r strangers. It is imprtant t expse yur bird t safe experiences and changes starting at a very yung age t build flexibility and imprve their adaptability. Variety in diet and tys, travel, and expsure t new peple and places all help t make yur bird mre flexible and adaptable t change.

B. It may be in a strange shape.
C. It may have a strng clr.
D. It may mve arund quickly.
11. What is the authr’s purpse f writing the text?

Ariel Prcaccia has thught a lt abut hw t cut a cake ver the last 15 years. As the father f three children, he knws hw hard it is t divide a birthday cake t everyne’s satisfactin. But it’s als because Prcaccia’s wrk fcuses n explring the mathematical rules fr dividing stuff up fairly. One way t d that is t think abstractly abut dessert.
Fr decades, researchers have been asking the seemingly simple questin f hw t cut a cake fairly. The answer reaches far beynd birthday parties. A mathematical prblem at its heart, cake cutting cnnects strict reasning t real-wrld issues f fairness, and s attracts nt nly mathematicians, but als scial scientists, ecnmists and mre. “It’s a very elegant mdel in which yu can distill what fairness really is, and reasn abut it,” Prcaccia says.
The simplest apprach is called the “divider-chser” methd, where ne persn cuts the cake int tw equal pieces in his view, and the ther persn picks first. Each receives a piece that they feel is as valuable as the ther’s. But when persnal preferences are taken int accunt, even the easiest rule becmes cmplicated. Suppse Alice and Bb are t divide a cake, and Alice knws Bb prefers chclate, she may knwingly divide the cake unequally s the smaller piece cntains mre chclate. Then Bb will chse accrding t his preference, and Alice will get the larger piece. Bth f them are satisfied with what they get, but the meaning f fairness changes in this situatin.
The cake is a symbl fr any divisible gd. When cake-cutting principles are emplyed t settle disagreements, they are ptentially helping the wrld find slutins. Prcaccia has used fair divisin algrithms (算法) t mdel fd distributin. Scial scientist Haris Aziz is explring situatins ranging frm hw t divide up daily tasks t hw t best schedule dctrs’ shifts in hspitals.
Even after decades f investigatin, cake cutting isn’t like a simple jigsaw puzzle (拼图) with a well-defined slutin. Instead, ver time, it has evlved int a kind f mathematical sandbx, a cnstructive playgrund that brings tgether abstract prfs and easy applicatins. The mre researchers explre it, the mre there is t explre.
12. What des the underlined wrd “distill” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Keep the fcus n. B. Find the ppsite f.
C. Get the essence f.D. Reduce the impact n.
13. What can we learn abut fairness frm the example given in paragraph 3?
A. Its standard is stable.B. It prevents unequal divisin.
C. Its cncept is cmplex.D. It dminates persnal preferences.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut cncerning cake cutting?
A. The details f its prcess.B. The applicatin f its rules.
C. The prblems it prduces.D. The harmny it symblizes.
15. What is the best title fr the text?
A．Wh benefits mst frm fairness?
B．Hw has fairness changed ver time?
C．What methd wrks best in cake-cutting?
D．Why are researchers s interested in cake-cutting?

S when Del walked int the classrm, all the kids were shcked. The kids next t him shifted their desks away. “What’s yur prblem?” Del asked. “I dn’t want yu t attack me,” ne kid said. Sme laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I culd tell he was jking, but many kids thught he admitted he did beat up smene.
During recess (课间休息), Del tried t jin the kickball game. “Neither team wants yu,” ne f the players said. “Why?” Del asked, lking cnfused. “I always play with yu guys.” They ignred him and went n playing. Del sat by himself while the rest f the schl enjyed their recess away frm him. Del lked lnely and sad, much different frm befre. I started t feel srry fr him.
Later that day, I learned what really happened. The kid was Del’s little brther and he was crying because their mther fell ill and was sent t hspital. I felt even srrier fr what I said befre. I knew that I had started a rumr (谣言).

At the Winter Olympic Games in Schi, Russia, halfway in the wmen’s slalm (障碍滑雪) race, 18-year-ld Mikaela Shiffrin tk a cmmanding lead ver the greatest wmen’s slalm skiers in the wrld. On her final run, she burst frm the start huse at a breakneck speed, snaking arund the ples in crazy rhythm.
Skiing has always been a significant part f Mikaela’s life. Her mm raced and cached skiing and her dad ski raced all thrugh cllege. The Shiffrins taught Mikaela and her brther, Taylr, t ski at a very yung age. At the age f tw and a half, Mikaela made her first ski run n plastic skis. Frm ages 8 t 11, she wrked hard, practicing hundreds f training runs n small hills repeatedly t develp the crrect techniques f slalm skiing.

Accrding t Kirk Dwyer, Burke Muntain Academy headmaster, “It was the degree f Mikaela’s effrt t be the best that distinguished her frm thers. Her cmmitment t cnditining, having prper sleep, eating crrectly, ding the drills, and watching vide was unusual fr an 11 t 13-year-ld. Mikaela practiced mre than anyne and believed in herself then and nw.”
By the time she was 17, she had already wn her first Wrld Cup race.
Wrking hard is a full-time jb fr Mikaela. Even her ff-seasn is wrk time. In the summer, when Mikaela is ff the ski slpes and in the gym, her daily training cnsists f six t seven hurs f weight lifting, swimming, and biking t imprve her cre strength and flexibility. She des all f this s that she can dash dwn slpes at speeds tpping 50 miles per hur while cutting back and frth arund gates with astnishing precisin.
“If yu have passin fr yur targets, whatever they are,” she says, “the sky is the limit. Give it yur all!”

Parrts are prey animals, which means that ther predatrs (捕食者) in the wild, such as hawks r snakes, are lking t make them int a meal. This ne factr influences parrts’ behavir in yur huse mre than any ther.
Parrts are mst easily hurt when feeding n the grund; membership in a grup plays an imprtant functin in ensuring their safety and imprving their chances f survival frm attacks by predatrs. The mst cmmn predatrs f parrts include hawks, snakes, cats, mnkeys, and bats. Sme predatrs make attacks nly during the day while thers hunt in the night.
As prey animals, parrts are cnstantly watching ut fr danger and they instinctively (本能地) react t risks. Their first chice is t take flight. Hwever, if this is nt pssible, they will fight with their pwerful beaks t defend themselves.
Because their biggest enemy is the hawk, parrts are especially reactive t quick mvements frm abve and behind. Fr this reasn, it is wise t avid quick, sudden mvements near yur bird. This is a built-in reactin nt subject t lgic r reasn. Simple and relatively harmless husehld bjects can draw extreme fear respnses frm a bird. Fr example, a balln may represent a hawk r a vacuum hse (吸尘器软管) may be the same as a snake in yur bird’s mind.
As prey animals, parrts are ften frightened by expsure t new husehld items r strangers. It is imprtant t expse yur bird t safe experiences and changes starting at a very yung age t build flexibility and imprve their adaptability. Variety in diet and tys, travel, and expsure t new peple and places all help t make yur bird mre flexible and adaptable t change.
8. What is imprtant fr parrts t better survive frm attacks in the wild?
A. Living in a grup.
B. Grwing beautiful feathers.
C. Feeding n the grund.
D. Aviding cming ut at night.

C. T prtect the yung.D. T play dead.
10. Why wuld a balln frighten a parrt?
A. It may explde suddenly.
B. It may be in a strange shape.
C. It may have a strng clr.
D. It may mve arund quickly.
11. What is the authr’s purpse f writing the text?

Ariel Prcaccia has thught a lt abut hw t cut a cake ver the last 15 years. As the father f three children, he knws hw hard it is t divide a birthday cake t everyne’s satisfactin. But it’s als because Prcaccia’s wrk fcuses n explring the mathematical rules fr dividing stuff up fairly. One way t d that is t think abstractly abut dessert.
Fr decades, researchers have been asking the seemingly simple questin f hw t cut a cake fairly. The answer reaches far beynd birthday parties. A mathematical prblem at its heart, cake cutting cnnects strict reasning t real-wrld issues f fairness, and s attracts nt nly mathematicians, but als scial scientists, ecnmists and mre. “It’s a very elegant mdel in which yu can distill what fairness really is, and reasn abut it,” Prcaccia says.
The simplest apprach is called the “divider-chser” methd, where ne persn cuts the cake int tw equal pieces in his view, and the ther persn picks first. Each receives a piece that they feel is as valuable as the ther’s. But when persnal preferences are taken int accunt, even the easiest rule becmes cmplicated. Suppse Alice and Bb are t divide a cake, and Alice knws Bb prefers chclate, she may knwingly divide the cake unequally s the smaller piece cntains mre chclate. Then Bb will chse accrding t his preference, and Alice will get the larger piece. Bth f them are satisfied with what they get, but the meaning f fairness changes in this situatin.
The cake is a symbl fr any divisible gd. When cake-cutting principles are emplyed t settle disagreements, they are ptentially helping the wrld find slutins. Prcaccia has used fair divisin algrithms (算法) t mdel fd distributin. Scial scientist Haris Aziz is explring situatins ranging frm hw t divide up daily tasks t hw t best schedule dctrs’ shifts in hspitals.
Even after decades f investigatin, cake cutting isn’t like a simple jigsaw puzzle (拼图) with a well-defined slutin. Instead, ver time, it has evlved int a kind f mathematical sandbx, a cnstructive playgrund that brings tgether abstract prfs and easy applicatins. The mre researchers explre it, the mre there is t explre.
12. What des the underlined wrd “distill” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Keep the fcus n. B. Find the ppsite f.
C. Get the essence f.D. Reduce the impact n.
13. What can we learn abut fairness frm the example given in paragraph 3?
A. Its standard is stable.B. It prevents unequal divisin.
C. Its cncept is cmplex.D. It dminates persnal preferences.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut cncerning cake cutting?
A. The details f its prcess.B. The applicatin f its rules.
C. The prblems it prduces.D. The harmny it symblizes.
15. What is the best title fr the text?
A．Wh benefits mst frm fairness?
B．Hw has fairness changed ver time?
C．What methd wrks best in cake-cutting?
D．Why are researchers s interested in cake-cutting?
