On a day marked by freezing rain and strng winds at the 1967 Bstn Marathn, the weather was the least f
Kathrine Switzer’s wrries. Kathrine Switzer was the nly registered wman in the race. She had used the name “K.
V. Switzer” t hide her gender because, at that time, females were widely believed t be physically incapable f
running such a lng distance.
The first few miles felt like a piece f cake. Her brief sense f freedm, hwever, was almst destryed when
race directr Jck Semple, his face red with fury, suddenly charged at her. “Get ut f this race and give me thse
numbers!” he yelled, lunging t rip the race numbers frm her sweatshirt. Althugh her byfriend, wh was
running with her, managed t push the directr away, the public shame left her deeply upset.
Fr a mment, the thught f drpping ut came int her mind. Hwever, a mre prfund realizatin then
tk hld, and she understd that quitting was nt an ptin. “If I quit,” she thught, “I will prve him right.
Nbdy will ever believe that wmen have the capability t run 26 miles r mre. Mre imprtantly, if I quit, it
will set wmen’s sprts back instead f mving it frward…”
Fueled by this new determinatin, the rest f the race became a different kind f battle. She struggled against
nt nly the freezing rain that chilled her t the bne but als the burning pain in her legs and the haunting memry
第 3页/共 11页
f the attack. After 4 hurs and 20 minutes f painful effrt, she crssed the finish line, greeted nt by cheers but by
the curius stares f a few reprters.
The race was ver, but her pursuit f change was just beginning. Her determined finish that day became a
primary frce in helping get wmen fficially accepted int the Bstn Marathn in 1972 and paving the way fr
the wmen’s marathn in the Olympic Games. Her number 261 has since becme a symbl f fearlessness fr
wmen wrldwide.
14. What did Kathrine hpe t achieve in the 71st Bstn Marathn?
A. Being a registered runner. B. Prving wmen’s athletic ability.
C. Acting as a cach t her friend. D. Prviding service as a vlunteer.
15. Why did Jck Semple chase Kathrine?
A. T fllw her pace. B. T defeat her in the race.
C. T frce her t quit. D. T prtect her frm thers.
16. What is mainly discussed abut Kathrine in the last paragraph?
A. Her leadership. B. Her ambitin. C. Her ppularity. D. Her influence.
17. What is the authr’s attitude twards Kathrine Switzer’s run in the 1967 Bstn Marathn?

Glbal sea levels cntinue t rise, psing a significant threat t castal ppulatins wrldwide. Faced with tw
majr threats: nging sea-level rise and predictins that 36.6 millin peple in Asian castal cities culd face
annual flding by 2070, Luca Curci Architects prpsed the Flating City as a grundbreaking slutin. This
design allws urban areas t adapt t rising waters, directly addressing these grwing disasters.
The prpsed city is a wnder f mdern design. Structurally, each 25-acre unit huses up t 50,000 residents,
with its buildings kept at a height f under 90 meters fr stability. Using seawater-resistant materials, these
structures are als designed t be flexible, much like bamb, t resist waves. Energy-wise, the prject plans t use
a mix f renewable energy surces, getting pwer frm wind, water, and the sun t pwer the city. A key
innvatin is its safety system: during extreme weather, platfrms can autmatically separate and regrup using a
system inspired by hw grups f fish avid predatrs.
The prject als ffers significant envirnmental advantages. A 2023 study by the Marine Future Institute
suggests that, cmpared t building artificial islands, this flating methd prtects up t 68% mre f the marine
ecsystem. Furthermre, its clsed-lp system is expected t reduce carbn emissins by ver 90%cmpared t a
第 4页/共 11页
land-based city f a similar size.
Hwever, despite these benefits, significant challenges remain. Financially, the initial cnstructin cst is
estimated t be 30% higher than traditinal land-based develpments. Technlgically, the cnstant expsure t
seawater damages materials, with research indicating that up t 15% f a platfrm’s surface culd require repair
annually. Mrever, cmprehensive emergency plans fr events such as tsunamis are still in develpment. “This
isn’t abut abandning casts,” ntes designer Tim Fu, “but evlving with them.”
While its lng-term success is still debated, the design redefines urban strength under challenging situatins.
Unlike rigid sea walls that fight against nature, these dynamic structures are designed t harmnize with ceanic
rhythms. “Cities must learn t dance with the waves,” Curci cncludes. This philsphy culd transfrm humanity’
s relatinship with rising seas, turning a threat int a sustainable pprtunity.
18. What drve Luca Curci Architects t cme up with a new design?
A. Energy crisis. B. Ptential disasters. C. Turism expansin. D. Overcrwded cities.
19. Which f the fllwing best describes Luca Curci’s design?
A. Adaptable and innvative. B. Fictinal and renewable.
C. Ec-friendly and immvable. D. Wave-resistant and cnventinal.
20. A majr limitatin f the Flating City prject is that ______.
A. its carbn emissins are higher than land-based cities
B. it negatively impacts marine life mre than artificial islands
C. its structures require regular repair due t seawater expsure
D. its emergency planning fr tsunamis is fully cmpleted
21. Which f the fllwing can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Ocean Prtectin: Life under Threat. B. Rising with the Tides: Flating Cities.
C. Cnnecting t the Future: Ec Slutins. D. Castal Design: Inspiratin frm Bamb.

Humanid rbts, pwered by generative AI (gen AI), hld significant ptential t enhance daily life,
especially in breaking dwn lngstanding barriers fr peple with disabilities. Hwever, a cnsiderable gap exists
between this exciting prmise and the reality f tday’s technlgy.
This gap is reflected in user experience. A 2023 study by the “AI fr Accessibility” Institute revealed that 39%
f users with disabilities feel annyed by technlgy’s failure t understand them, cmpared t 28% f
nn-disabled users. Nearly half f the disabled users als reprted that they must change their behavirs t use a
第 5页/共 11页
device rather than adapting the device t fit their needs. This is true even while they acknwledge AI’s varius
ptential benefits.
The primary reasn fr this issue is a lack f cnsideratin fr diverse user needs during the develpment
prcess. Many AI technlgies are designed withut direct participatin frm the cmmunities they aim t serve.
T crrect this, the disability cmmunity’s slgan, “Nthing abut us withut us,” must becme a guiding principle
fr develpers.
The slutin, therefre, is t build inclusivity int the design prcess itself. This means that develpers shuld
gather infrmatin frm the widest pssible range f peple t create AI with user-adaptable features, allwing
custmizatin fr diverse needs. This apprach treats accessibility as a cre requirement frm the start rather than
an after-the-fact mdificatin. In practice, this requires invlving peple with disabilities t share their experiences
and insights when develping and testing new technlgies.
A prject named Euphnia ffers a clear example. It aims t imprve speech recgnitin fr users with speech
difficulties. Given that the AI is trained n vast amunts f data frm peple with nn-typical speech patterns, it
can accurately interpret their cmmands. Fr instance, it has helped frmer ftball player Tim Shaw cmmunicate
effectively again. The system nt nly understands his directins but can als speak fr him in a vice remarkably
similar t his wn.
Ultimately, the gal is t shift ur perspective. We shuld see these technlgies nt merely as tls but as
extensins f the persn. This means that what truly matters is clsing the gap between designing fr peple with
disabilities and designing with them.
22. What can we infer frm the survey in Paragraph 2?
A. Disabled peple frequently avid using gen AI.
B. Nn-disabled peple have few gen AI prblems.
C. Gen AI seldm fails t meet the needs f disabled users.
D. Gen AI is nt user-friendly enugh fr disabled peple.
23. The authr qutes “nthing abut us withut us” t stress that ______.
A. users’ feedback n technlgies ften gets ignred
B. users’ participatin matters in designing technlgies
C. users’ advice hinders the develpment f technlgies
D. users’ wishes reflect the imprvement f technlgies
24. What des the wrd underlined “mdificatin” in Paragraph 4 prbably mean?
第 6页/共 11页
A. Limitatin. B. Creatin. C. Adaptatin. D. Cmmunicatin.
25 The authr takes the example f Euphnia t shw ______.
A. technlgy can independently interact with disabled peple
B. technlgy can enhance disabled peple’s life quality
C. technlgy can help peple cmmunicate effectively
D. technlgy can achieve inclusivity fr disabled peple

It was the beginning f December. Peple were busy in my hme. The living rm, transfrmed int a srt f
wrkshp, was piled with bxes, wrapping paper, and sme clrful ribbns (缎带). At the center f it all was my
mther, Lee-Ann.
Every year, Lee-Ann rganized a Christmas charity drive, cllecting dnatins, gifts, and fd hampers (食品
篮) fr families in need within ur cmmunity. It was a traditin she had started when I was just a tddler, fueled
by her belief that everyne deserved t experience the jy and warmth f life, regardless f their circumstances.
“But, Mm, d yu think we can manage? I mean, it’s amazing what yu’re ding, but it’s a lt f wrk, and...”
I asked.
She stpped wrapping and lked up at me, her gaze firm yet gentle. “Mark, d yu knw why I d this every
year?” she asked.

I shk my head realizing I had never really knwn her mtivatins.
“Because,” she cntinued, “giving brings us tgether. It reminds us that we’re all part f a bigger family. And
if we can make even a small difference in smene’s life, then all the effrt is wrth it.”
Mved by her wrds, I ndded, understanding fr the first time the depth f her cmmitment.
The days that fllwed were a lt f activities. Our family, alng with a grup f vlunteers drawn in by my
mther’s infectius enthusiasm, wrked tirelessly. We wrapped gifts, packed fd hampers, and arranged deliveries.
My mther was everywhere at nce, encuraging, and spreading cheer.
On Christmas Eve, as we laded the last f the hampers int the van, my mther turned t me and said, “
Ready fr the final rund?”
