One 68-year-old woman runs three times a week. “I love to eat,” she says. She runs to lose weight. Running is good for health in other ways, too. Many runners say running keeps colds and other small health problems away. “Running is my doctor,” says one man. Running can also help people to relax.

But it was not a valuable (有价值的) book, and a poor man got it. The book wasn’t very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed. It was a thin strip of vellum (羊皮纸) on which was written the secret of the “Touchstone”. The touchstone was a small pebble (鹅卵石) that could turn any common metal into pure gold. The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: The real stone would feel warm, while other pebbles are cold. So the man sold his house, bought a tent, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He knew that if he picked up normal pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold, he might pick up the same pebbles hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick up a pebble. Cold — throw it into sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The man repeated it day by day, year by year. One day, however, about mid-afternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He was used to throwing each pebble into the sea as soon as he picked it up. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away. So it is with opportunity (机会). Unless we are vigilant, it’s easy to fail to realize an opportunity when it is in hand and it’s just as easy to throw it away. 31. According to the passage, the touchstone is a stone _______.  A. that you can touch  B. that can turn common metal into pure gold  C. that can bring you thousands of pebbles 32. The man threw the touchstone into the sea finally because _______.  A. it was cold  B. throwing has become one of his habits  C. he was too tired to hold it 33. How did the man probably feel when he realized it was the touchstone?  A. Excited.  B. Moved.  C. Regretted. 34. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “vigilant” in the last paragraph?  A. Brave enough.  B. Hard-working enough.  C. Careful enough. 35. What does the writer want to tell us?  A. Opportunity knocks but once.  B. Use it or lose it.  C. Where there is a will, there is a way.第三节 语篇补全（共5小题，计10分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项补全短文。Your nose has many important jobs, and is always busy.

He was often late for school! The teacher called his father and got to know he played computer games online late the night before and couldn’t get up that morning. In fact, he had played online games since the age of 11. He almost dropped out of school last year. Lin Tao is not alone. Information from China Internet Center shows that the number of teenage Internet users in China had been about 277 million by the end of December, 2019. Many of them, like Lin Tao, spend too much time playing computer games online. To deal with this problem, the Chinese government worked out a draft regulation (法规草案). According to the regulation, players need to use their own ID cards to play online games. Game companies will control teenagers’ online game time. They will not be able to play online games between 12:00 at night and 8:00 in the morning. If they are still playing during the time, the game companies will lock them out. Many people think that the regulation can surely better protect Chinese young game players online, while others doubt whether it can successfully stop them from playing games too much. “More and more people come to know that playing online games too much not only brings teenagers health and study problems, but also makes them depressed and lonely,” Tong Xiaojun, a director from a university, told CCTV. “we need support from the whole society to solve the problem.” 41. Did Lin Tao often arrive late for school? 42. What do players need to use if they want to play online games? 43. What will happen if teenager players are still playing game during 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.? 44. When are teenagers not allowed to play online games? 45.
