Here’s a selection of the strangest races in the world.
Surf Dog Competition
Hundreds of participants (参赛者) from all over the US come to fight for the first prize. This annual event is an official dog surfing competition taking place in Imperial Beach in August and Huntington Beach in September. The attendance to the event is free of charge, however, donations are welcome.
Bring Your Own Big Wheel Race
If you think wheel toys are designed for kids only, you’re wrong. The race was initiated by John Brumit in 2000 when he rode down Lombard Street on his plastic wheel toy. That day, he was the only participant in the race. He continued his tradition every year, but few joined him. In 2006, someone posted a video of his race and as a result, the next year’s race featured hundreds of participants though there was no prize money. Since then, the annual race has been held on Easter Sunday in San Francisco.
World’s Ugliest Dog Contest
It’s an annual event held in June in Petaluma, California. But it’s not about making fun of the ugly dogs, but about encouraging them and showing the world that such dogs can also be happy and adorable. The competition has been held since the 1970s. The winner gets a check for $1,000.
Fur Rondy
Like the famous Spanish Bullfighting Festival, Alaska has its own tradition. It’s a bit transformed. Speedy reindeer (驯鹿) run after the participants in the race. This event is held every February in Anchorage, Alaska. Participants pay a small fee to attend it; some of them wear funny dresses, which children enjoy very much.
1. What made Bring Your Own Big Wheel Race popular quickly?
A. Brumit’s strange race device. B. A video of Brumit in the race.
C. The prize money of the race. D. The joy brought by the race.
2. Of the following races, which is held in two places?
A. Surf Dog Competition. B. Bring Your Own Big Wheel Race.
C. Fur Rondy. D. World’s Ugliest Dog Contest.
3. What do the listed competitions have in common?
A. They are free of charge. B. They have ancient traditions.
C. They are held annually. D. They are favored by children.

(2006年，有人发布了他比赛的视频，结果，第二年的比赛有数百名参与者，尽管没有奖金。从那时起，一年一度的比赛一直在旧金山的复活节举行。)”可知，发布Brumit比赛的视频后，才一年一度举办比赛，使Bring Your Own Big Wheel Race这场比赛变得流行起来，故选B。

Many people living in extremely low-income areas don’t have access to the materials they need to make even the most basic home improvements. Most, including Tessa Vierk’s and Jim Benton’s friends, can’t afford to buy pricey tools themselves, nor can they afford to hire someone else to repair their homes. That’s where the Chicago Tool Library comes in!
Tessa and Jim set up the library that accepts tool donations in 2019. It functions exactly like a regular library, except instead of books, people can borrow tools they need for home repairs, woodworking, gardening, cooking, camping, and more. People sign up for a library card, and there’s a pay-what-you-can annual fee with no standard or minimum payments. Members can borrow as many tools as they can carry for seven days, and renew(续借) them if they want to. When the library first started, Tessa and Jim had about 150 members. They now have over 1,500 members from all over the Chicago area and more than 2,500 tools to choose from.
Now, in fact, they’ve had to turn down tool donations. They’re searching for a larger building to hold “twice as many tools”. “Probably 90 percent of the tools we have have been donated,” Tessa said. “A lot of people own too many high-quality things, and they would give them to us so that we don’t have the space to accept.”
“While it’s quiet around the library, it’s far from the city, which is hard for young people who are working to get our services. We are planning to relocate to a larger location with a better public transport network to make our offerings, including more tools, and lots of other wonderful services, available to even more people,” they wrote on their website.
4. What made Tessa and Jim start the Chicago Tool Library?
A. Their love for reading books. B. Their friends’ encouragement.
C. Their interest in decorating. D. Their desire to help the poor.
5. Which word best describes the Chicago Tool Library?
A. Academic. B. Popular. C. Costly. D. Demanding.
6. Why do Tessa and Jim turn down tool donations?
A. They have had enough tools. B. The tools are of poor quality.
C. Their storage space is limited. D. They want to buy tools themselves.
7. What can be inferred about the present location of the library?
A. It’s not easily accessible. B. It’s close to the community.
C. It’s too noisy and crowded. D. It’s favorable for the young.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Many people living in extremely low-income areas don’t have access to the materials they need to make even the most basic home improvements. Most, including Tessa Vierk’s and Jim Benton’s friends, can’t afford to buy pricey tools themselves, nor can they afford to hire someone else to repair their homes. That’s where the Chicago Tool Library comes in!（许多生活在低收入地区的人无法获得他们所需要的材料，即使是最基本的家庭装修。包括泰莎·维尔克和吉姆·本顿的朋友在内的大多数人自己买不起昂贵的工具，也买不起雇人来修理他们的房子。这就是芝加哥Chicago Tool Library的作用所在）”可知他们帮助穷人的愿望使泰莎和吉姆创办了芝加哥工具图书馆。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“When the library first started, Tessa and Jim had about 150 members. They now have over 1,500 members from all over the Chicago area and more than 2,500 tools to choose from.（图书馆刚开始的时候，泰莎和吉姆大约有150个会员。他们现在有超过1500名来自芝加哥地区的成员和超过2500种工具可供选择）”可知图书馆很受欢迎。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Now, in fact, they’ve had to turn down tool donations. They’re searching for a larger building to hold “twice as many tools”（现在，他们不得不拒绝捐赠工具。他们正在寻找一个更大的建筑来容纳两倍的工具）”可知由于它们的存储空间是有限的，泰莎和吉姆拒绝了工具捐赠。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“While it’s quiet around the library, it’s far from the city, which is hard for young people who are working to get our services.”（虽然图书馆周围很安静，但因为离城市很远，所以工作的年轻人很难得到我们的服务）”可知图书馆现在的位置不容易到达。故选A。

Arouca Geopark in Portugal has announced that visitors are free to visit its record-setting bridge, the 516 Arouca Bridge. Though it’s quite high, it’s the length of the bridge that has set a record. It’s the world’s longest hanging bridge for walkers.
The bridge runs between two mountains in Arouca Geopark. The “516” in its name comes from the fact that it’s 516 meters. Until the 516 Arouca Bridge was completed, the longest hanging bridge for walkers was the 494-meter-long Charles Kuonen Bridge in Randa, Switzerland. To replace an older crossing that was damaged by falling rocks, it was opened to the public five years ago, as the website for what is now the world’s second longest hanging bridge says.
The 516 Arouca Bridge, started in May, 2018, is made mainly of metal. It cost $2.8 million and took two years to complete. However, it was not until one year later that the bridge was officially opened. It is a little scary to walk on. The sides and bottom of the bridge are built with a metal grid (网格) and it’s easy to see through it. At its highest point, the bridge is 175 meters off the ground. Far, far below is the rushing Paiva River.
Arouca Geopark is famous for its beautiful natural scenery and the many outdoor activities. Arouca’s leader, Margarida Belém, says proudly, “There’s no other bridge like this one in the world.” All of the city leaders think the bridge can attract people from all over the world for a lot of different reasons. Some might come for the scenery. Others might come to see how the bridge was built. But perhaps most will come to enjoy the safe, but scary experience of walking across. Its website describes the walk as “the most exciting 516 meters of your life”.
8. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Arouca Geopark. B. The 516 Arouca Bridge.
C. The Charles Kuonen Bridge. D. The website for the bridge.
9. In which year was the 516 Arouca Bridge opened officially?
A. In 2018. B. In 2019. C. In 2020. D. In 2021.
10. What do the Arouca’s leaders expect of the 516 Arouca Bridge?
A. It can offer exciting experiences. B. It can boost local tourism.
C. It can be protected well by visitors. D. It can make walkers safer.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. World’s Longest Hanging Bridge Is Opened B. Two Hanging Bridges Have Been Finished
C. Countries Are Eager to Build Hanging Bridges D. Hanging Bridges Are Beneficial to Visitors
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A
【解析】

(在516 Arouca桥完工之前，对于行人来说，最长的吊桥是瑞士Randa的494米长的Charles Kuonen桥。)”及“as the website for what is now the world’s second longest hanging bridge says (正如现在世界上第二长的吊桥网站所说)”可知，在516 Arouca Bridge建成后Charles Kuonen桥成为世界第二长的桥，故此处介绍Charles Kuonen桥。故推知it指代The Charles Kuonen Bridge，故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The 516 Arouca Bridge, started in May, 2018, is made mainly of metal. It cost $2.8 million and took two years to complete. However, it was not until one year later that the bridge was officially opened. (516 Arouca大桥于2018年5月开工，主要由金属制成。它耗资280万美元，花了两年时间才完成。然而，直到一年后，这座桥才正式开放。)”可知，516 Arouca大桥2018年开始建，2年后的2010年建成，1年后的2021年正式开通，故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“All of the city leaders think the bridge can attract people from all over the world for a lot of different reasons. (所有城市的领导人都认为这座桥可以吸引来自世界各地的人们，原因有很多。)”可知，Arouca的领导人期待并相信516 Arouca桥能够吸引全世界的游客，促进当地的旅游业，故选B。

Zo Trisha Prinsloo cares about the beaches of Cape Town, South Africa. She leads cleanups there. She set up a group called Save a Fishie years ago! It has picked up plastic bottles, food containers, and other waste. “My main goal is to constantly remove anything and everything I can off our beaches,” she says, “and to try to prevent litter from being taken out to sea.”
Lately, however, Prinsloo has noticed an increase in a certain kind of plastic waste. It’s from PPE (personal protective equipment). Her group Save a Fishie saw eight different kinds of gloves” during a cleanup. I find masks more and more regularly, too,” she said.
People everywhere are wearing PPE to protect themselves from COVID-19. But when PPE isn’t thrown out the right way, it pollutes the environment and endangers wildlife. Each year, at least 8 million tons of plastic enter the world’s oceans. Now this waste includes more PPE. Last year, the Ocean Conservancy led by its chief scientist George Leonard held its annual International Coastal Cleanup. “We’ve found tens of thousands of PPE waste, and more of it is being put into oceans. PPE waste is a significant threat to oceans,” Leonard said. PPE waste can hurt ocean animals that can eat it or get tangled (缠绕) in it. Sue Schwar manages South Essex Wildlife Hospital in the UK. Her team saved a seagull. Its legs got tangled,” she said. Thankfully, the staff was able to untangle the bird and set it free.
PPE will continue to be common until COVID-19 ends, but there’re steps you can take to reduce its environmental impact. Wear clean reusable masks and deal with them carefully before throwing them into rubbish bins to make sure animals won’t get tangled up. Put used PPE in a bin with a safe lid (盖子). This is important when the bin is outside because masks and gloves can be carried away by the wind.
12. Why did Prinsloo set up Save a Fishie?
A. To clean up the beaches. B. To offer free PPE to people.
C. To stop people producing rubbish. D. To help fight against COVID-19.
13. What has Leonard’s team discovered?
A. Ocean animals also need PPE. B. PPE waste is a growing problem.
C. Ocean environment depends on PPE. D. PPE can help protect people greatly.
14. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. What to do to reduce rubbish. B. Where to put rubbish bins.
C. How to solve the PPE problem. D. When to wear masks and gloves.
15 Where is this text most likely from?
A. A biography. B. A diary. C. A novel. D. A magazine.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My efforts to learn, read, write and speak English have been a significant challenge in my life. When I first came to the United States from Hong Kong about 12 years ago, I could barely communicate in English. Today, although I still have much to learn, I realize I have made a good amount of progress in my years abroad.
I grew up in a small village in China, where no one I knew spoke English. I wasn’t exposed to English or any other language through books, magazines or TV. Only when I later went to study in Hong Kong, was I exposed to American and Western culture through movies, music and other media. Although English is common in Hong Kong due to its history, I still couldn’t speak, read or write much after graduating from high school.
In my early 20s, I decided to move to New York City and I was determined to make a new life for myself there. However, I didn’t want to end up speaking my native language because I knew that learning English was very important if I wanted to be successful in this new country. New York seemed like another world and without speaking much English it was even more difficult to make friends.
I didn’t have a teacher at first, so I tried every way I could to learn the language. One way that was very useful was listening to the radio and watching TV, mostly news. I tried to speak like the people I heard on TV. They spoke more clearly and it was easier to understand than the English I heard people speaking in my neighborhood. I picked up one word at a time, and looked them up in the dictionary. I would also try to write down the words and remember them. I made a goal of learning at least 20 new words every day.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After a while I made friends.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Thinking back on the ways I have learned English over the years, I have something to say.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
After a while I made friends. They were another way I learned English. I would pick up a lot of cool expressions just from spending time with them and listening to them speak. My friends were patient with me and helped me a lot, but I often became discouraged. Seeing I gave up speaking English, they tried to encourage me to speak out. They often invited me to their parties where I was surrounded by English atmosphere and I was forced to communicate with them in English.
Thinking back on the ways I have learned English over the years, I have something to say. It is clear that I am a visual learner — I learn by seeing and looking. I had the most success when reading and using written materials. I enjoyed reading books, newspapers and magazines. Of course, it is also very important to be able to speak and listen. So, I spent lots of time trying to develop these skills, like getting involved in social activities with friends. So, if I could become more and more fluent, so can you!
