On Sunday, April 23, almost 50,000 athletes took to the streets to compete in the 37th London Marathon. While few were able to get even close to Daniel Wanjiru’s 2:05:48 winning time, none were as slow as Tom Harrison,who crawled (爬) to the finish line, six days later, on April 30.
However, the Metropolitan Police Officer, who was dressed in a gorilla (大猩猩) suit, had a good reason for his slowness. He had completed the 26.2 miles on all fours to raise funds to help gorilla conservation efforts in Africa. The 41-year-old who spent 8—10 hours on his hands and knees, covered about 4.5 miles each day before crashing at a friend’s house for the night. To prevent his knees from blistering, he swapped between hands and knees into loping (大步走) along on hands and feet and took breaks every 100 to 200 meters. But the arduous crawl was well worth it.
Harrison, who crossed the finish line at 11:45 am, has raised over 37,000 ($47,800), far more thanhis original goal of 1,790 ($2,300), for the Gorilla Organization, whose efforts are mainly spent in Rwanda, Uganda, and Democratic Republic of the Congo. The much-needed funds will help train the communities near gorilla habitats to support themselves and make them rely less on selling wildlife meat for a living. The money will also help pay for ranger servicesto monitor excess hunting of the Great Apes. More importantly, Harrison hopes his six-day crawl will highlight the bad situation of the gorillas, whose numbers are decreasing at alarming rates, and encourage more people to help protect them.
While thrilled at the outcome, Harrison, Mr. Gorilla, is not done yet. He intends to continue his fundraising efforts at the annual Ride London cycling festival scheduled for the weekend of July 28-30, 2022.
4. Why did Tom Harrison crawl to the finish line
A. To improve his physical and mental health.
B. To collect money for the Gorilla Organization.
C. To win the title of the slowest Marathon runner.
D. To advertise policies for Metropolitan Police.
5. What does the underlined word “arduous” mean in paragraph 2
A. Tough. B. Funny.
C. Harmful. D. Attractive.
6. What is the general aim of the Gorilla Organization
A. To help protect habitats for endangered gorillas.
B. To protect gorillas in some African countries.
C. To monitor and punish illegal hunting for gorillas.
D. To make people aware of the bad situation of gorillas.
7 Which word can best describe Tom Harrison
A. Strong. B. Hard-working.
C. Caring. D. Smart.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. C
【解析】

【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中“To prevent his knees from blistering, he swapped between hands and knees into loping (大步走) along on hands and feet and took breaks every 100 to 200 meters. But the arduous crawl was well worth it. (为了防止膝盖起泡,他把双手和膝盖交替使用,用手和脚大步走,每100 ~ 200米休息一次。但这arduous爬行是值得的)”由描述他双手和膝盖交替使用并且每100 ~ 200米休息一次可知,划线词arduous意为“艰难的”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“…for the Gorilla Organization, whose efforts are mainly spent in Rwanda, Uganda, and Democratic Republic of the Congo. The much-needed funds will help train the communities near gorilla habitats to support themselves and make them rely less on selling wildlife meat for a living. (……大猩猩组织的活动主要在卢旺达、乌干达和刚果民主共和国进行。急需的资金将帮助训练大猩猩栖息地附近的社区,使他们能够自给自足,减少对出售野生动物肉的依赖)”可知,大猩猩组织的总体目标是在一些非洲国家保护大猩猩。故选B项。

(更重要的是,哈里森希望这六天的攀爬活动能让人们注意到大猩猩的糟糕处境,因为它们的数量正在以惊人的速度减少,并鼓励更多的人帮助保护它们)”和最后一段中“He intends to continue his fundraising efforts at the annual Ride London cycling festival scheduled for the weekend of July 28-30, 2022.

A new study has found that braving the cold maybe a good way to help burn off some fat.
The research was carried out by scientists at Canada’s Laurentian University and focused on high-intensity interval training(HIIT). This format has grown in popularity of late due to the fat-burning benefits it brings, and the team set out to explore how temperature might influence its effects.
The study involved 11 overweight adults who took part in two HIIT sessions a week apart. One of these was carried out in a “thermoneutral” environment with temperatures of around 70 °F(21℃),and the other at a cold 32 °F(0℃). The sessions consisted of 10 separate cycling race at 90 percent effort lasting one minute, followed by 90-second “recovery” periods of cycling at30 percent intensity.
After each session, the participants cooled down by gently cycling or walking, ate a nutrition bar before going to sleep and enjoyed a high-fat breakfast the morning after. During these sessions, the scientists monitored skin temperature, core body temperature, heart rate and the amount of oxygen. Blood samples were also drawn to help calculate fat burning rates following the breakfast the next day.
“The present study found that high-intensity exercise in the cold increased lipid oxidation (脂质氧化) by 358 percent in comparison to high-intensity exercise in a thermoneutral environment,”the team writes.
The authors also note that the idea that cold temperatures help us burn more fat during exercise will need further investigation (调查), though the first-of-a-kind study does indicate it’s a possibility worth pursuing.
8. What is good for burning off fat according to the study
A. Cold food. B. Low temperature.
C. Hard workout. D. Cycling race.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Introduction to the study.
B. Some data in the study.
C. The participants in the study.
D. The process of the study.
10. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. Further study needs to be done.
B. Doing exercise burns more fat.
C. The efforts of scientists are in vain.
D. The study result is unreasonable.
11. What of the following could be the best title for the text
A. High-intensity Workouts Help Burn off Extra Calories
B. Cycling in the Cold Is a Great Way to Build upYour Body
C. Study Shows Fat-burning Potential of Exercising in the Cold
D. Researchers Have Found More Fat-burning Workouts
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。研究发现在寒冷的温度中锻炼有助于燃烧脂肪。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“A new study has found that braving the cold maybe a good way to help burn off some fat. (一项新的研究发现,勇敢面对寒冷可能是帮助燃烧脂肪的好方法)”和第二段中“This format has grown in popularity of late due to the fat-burning benefits it brings, and the team set out to explore how temperature might influence its effects. (由于它带来的脂肪燃烧的好处,这种形式最近变得越来越流行,该团队开始探索温度如何影响其效果)”可知,根据这项研究,较低的温度对燃烧脂肪有好处 。故选B项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“The study involved 11 overweight adults who took part in two HIIT sessions a week apart. One of these was carried out in a “thermoneutral” environment with temperatures of around 70 °F(21℃),and the other at a cold 32 °F(0℃). The sessions consisted of 10 separate cycling race at 90 percent effort lasting one minute, followed by 90-second “recovery” periods of cycling at30 percent intensity. (这项研究包括11名超重的成年人,他们每周参加两次HIIT训练。其中一个实验是在温度为70°F(21℃)左右的“热中性”环境中进行的,另一个是在温度为32°F(0℃)的低温环境中进行的。这些训练包括10场独立的自行车比赛,每一分钟付出90%的努力,然后是90秒的“恢复”周期,强度为30%)”可知,本段介绍了本研究的参与对象、训练次数、训练环境等信息,因此本段主要是对本研究的介绍。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The authors also note that the idea that cold temperatures help us burn more fat during exercise will need further investigation (调查) (作者还指出,关于低温有助于我们在运动中燃烧更多脂肪的观点还需要进一步的调查)”可知,研究需要做进一步的调查。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“A new study has found that braving the cold maybe a good way to help burn off some fat. (一项新的研究发现,勇敢面对寒冷可能是帮助燃烧脂肪的好方法)”和第五段中““The present study found that high-intensity exercise in the cold increased lipid oxidation (脂质氧化) by 358 percent in comparison to high-intensity exercise in a thermoneutral environment,” the team writes. (研究小组记录:“目前的研究发现,与在热中性环境下的高强度运动相比,在寒冷环境下的高强度运动会使脂质氧化增加358%。”)”可知,本文主要讲述了研究发现在寒冷的温度中锻炼有助于燃烧脂肪,因此本文的最佳标题选项C“研究表明寒冷中锻炼可以燃烧脂肪”符合题意。故选C项。

【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:这种做法在1920年结束,因为美国农民反对,但在1942年美国加入第二次世界大战后又恢复了。根据句意,两句之间是因果关系。故填because/as。

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。
The artful Arab
Many years ago, there was a man named Nabor in an Arabian tribe (部落), who owned a beautiful horse.This horse was famous for being both fast and gentle. Admiring this horse for long,an Arab named Jehu had offered his camels and many valuable treasures for the horse, but Nabor refused.
Jehu then devised a trick, hoping to get the horse to himself. He decided to dress in rags,dirtyhis face and blindfold himself. Then, he lay by the roadside to wait for the owner of the horse.
When he saw Nabor coming on his beautiful horse, he cried out in a weak voice, “I am dying; help me please. For three days and nights I have been unable to move from this spot to find food.”
Nabor kindly offered to take him on his horse and carry him home; but Jehu replied,“I cannot stand;I have no strength left.” Nabor felt pity and got off his horse. He led his horse to the man and,with great difficulty, helped him onto the horse’s back. But, once Jehu was sitting in the saddle (鞍), he kicked the horse and galloped off (疾驰), calling out as he did so, “I have the horse; and you will never see it again.Goodbye!”
Nabor was surprised and sad at first, but he soon ran after the thief, shouting to him to stop as he had something to say.
Certain that Nabor could not catch him by foot, Jehu turned the horse and stopped a short distance from Nabor. “You have taken my horse,” said Nabor, “but since I can do nothing to stop you, I have to accept my loss; but I beg you never to tell anyone how you got the horse.”
“And why not ” asked Jehu. “Because,” replied Nabor, “another man might be truly sick and in trouble, and men would be too fearful to help him. In this way, you would prevent others doing what is good and right for fear of being tricked as I have been.”
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。
Struck with shame at these words, Jehu was silent for a moment.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】one possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Struck with shame at these words, Jehu was silent for a moment. Then, he jumped from the horse and led him back to the owner. He said with a low head, “Nabor, take back your horse now, please. How bad it would be if, by my wicked actions, I should stop other people doing what is right! I am really sorry for the wrong which I was about to do. Please forgive my wickedness and crime.”
Paragraph 2:
Nabor was happy to hear what Jehu said. He knew that his words had stopped another person from wickedness and crime. Without hesitation, he offered his forgiveness and friendship to Jehu. Jehu was glad to be forgiven. Nabor then sincerely invited Jehu back to his tent to enjoy food together, and ever afterwards treated him as a friend. While drinking, both Nabor and Jehu felt lucky at that moment. They knew what they gained and what they almost lost.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Jehu想要得到Nabor的马,但是Nabor不肯卖。Jehu就想出一个计策,装扮成一个可怜的人,骗到了Nabor的马并骑马飞奔而去。Nabor看着Jehu的举动,说出一番让Jehu羞愧的话。Jehu思索过后决定把马归还,请求原谅。Nabor很高兴,原谅了他并和他成为了朋友。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①.由第一段首句内容“听了这话,Jehu好一会儿说不出话来。”可知,第一段可描写Jehu听到Nabor的话的反应并决定将马归还给Nabor。
②.由第二段首句内容“Nabor听见Jehu的话很欢喜。”可知,第二段可描写Nabor很高兴能够将马要回来,他原谅了Jehu并将Jehu当作朋友对待。

On Sunday, April 23, almost 50,000 athletes took to the streets to compete in the 37th London Marathon. While few were able to get even close to Daniel Wanjiru’s 2:05:48 winning time, none were as slow as Tom Harrison,who crawled (爬) to the finish line, six days later, on April 30.
However, the Metropolitan Police Officer, who was dressed in a gorilla (大猩猩) suit, had a good reason for his slowness. He had completed the 26.2 miles on all fours to raise funds to help gorilla conservation efforts in Africa. The 41-year-old who spent 8—10 hours on his hands and knees, covered about 4.5 miles each day before crashing at a friend’s house for the night. To prevent his knees from blistering, he swapped between hands and knees into loping (大步走) along on hands and feet and took breaks every 100 to 200 meters. But the arduous crawl was well worth it.
Harrison, who crossed the finish line at 11:45 am, has raised over 37,000 ($47,800), far more thanhis original goal of 1,790 ($2,300), for the Gorilla Organization, whose efforts are mainly spent in Rwanda, Uganda, and Democratic Republic of the Congo. The much-needed funds will help train the communities near gorilla habitats to support themselves and make them rely less on selling wildlife meat for a living. The money will also help pay for ranger servicesto monitor excess hunting of the Great Apes. More importantly, Harrison hopes his six-day crawl will highlight the bad situation of the gorillas, whose numbers are decreasing at alarming rates, and encourage more people to help protect them.
While thrilled at the outcome, Harrison, Mr. Gorilla, is not done yet. He intends to continue his fundraising efforts at the annual Ride London cycling festival scheduled for the weekend of July 28-30, 2022.
4. Why did Tom Harrison crawl to the finish line
A. To improve his physical and mental health.
B. To collect money for the Gorilla Organization.
C. To win the title of the slowest Marathon runner.
D. To advertise policies for Metropolitan Police.
5. What does the underlined word “arduous” mean in paragraph 2
A. Tough. B. Funny.
C. Harmful. D. Attractive.
6. What is the general aim of the Gorilla Organization
A. To help protect habitats for endangered gorillas.
B. To protect gorillas in some African countries.
C. To monitor and punish illegal hunting for gorillas.
D. To make people aware of the bad situation of gorillas.
7 Which word can best describe Tom Harrison
A. Strong. B. Hard-working.
C. Caring. D. Smart.
C
A new study has found that braving the cold maybe a good way to help burn off some fat.
The research was carried out by scientists at Canada’s Laurentian University and focused on high-intensity interval training(HIIT). This format has grown in popularity of late due to the fat-burning benefits it brings, and the team set out to explore how temperature might influence its effects.
The study involved 11 overweight adults who took part in two HIIT sessions a week apart. One of these was carried out in a “thermoneutral” environment with temperatures of around 70 °F(21℃),and the other at a cold 32 °F(0℃). The sessions consisted of 10 separate cycling race at 90 percent effort lasting one minute, followed by 90-second “recovery” periods of cycling at30 percent intensity.
After each session, the participants cooled down by gently cycling or walking, ate a nutrition bar before going to sleep and enjoyed a high-fat breakfast the morning after. During these sessions, the scientists monitored skin temperature, core body temperature, heart rate and the amount of oxygen. Blood samples were also drawn to help calculate fat burning rates following the breakfast the next day.
“The present study found that high-intensity exercise in the cold increased lipid oxidation (脂质氧化) by 358 percent in comparison to high-intensity exercise in a thermoneutral environment,”the team writes.
The authors also note that the idea that cold temperatures help us burn more fat during exercise will need further investigation (调查), though the first-of-a-kind study does indicate it’s a possibility worth pursuing.
8. What is good for burning off fat according to the study
A. Cold food. B. Low temperature.
C. Hard workout. D. Cycling race.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Introduction to the study.
B. Some data in the study.
C. The participants in the study.
D. The process of the study.
10. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. Further study needs to be done.
B. Doing exercise burns more fat.
C. The efforts of scientists are in vain.
D. The study result is unreasonable.
11. What of the following could be the best title for the text
A. High-intensity Workouts Help Burn off Extra Calories
B. Cycling in the Cold Is a Great Way to Build upYour Body
C. Study Shows Fat-burning Potential of Exercising in the Cold
D. Researchers Have Found More Fat-burning Workouts

A Japanese company has announced the successful test drive of a flying car. SkyDrive Inc. conducted the public demonstration on August 25.The company said in a news release at the Toyota Test Field,one of the largest in Japan,“It was the first public demonstration for a flying car in Japanese history.”

More test flights will occur in the future under different conditions to make sure the safety and technology of the vehicle meet industry standards.
The success of this flight means that it is likely the car will be tested outside of the Toyota Test Field by the end of the year. “The company will continue to develop technologies to safely and securely launch the flying car in 2023,” the news release said,“No price has been announced.”
12. How long did it take SkyDrive to develop its flying car successfully
A. Two months. B. One year.
C. Half a year. D. Two years.
13. What do we know about the SD-03 according to the text

The artful Arab
Many years ago, there was a man named Nabor in an Arabian tribe (部落), who owned a beautiful horse.This horse was famous for being both fast and gentle. Admiring this horse for long,an Arab named Jehu had offered his camels and many valuable treasures for the horse, but Nabor refused.
Jehu then devised a trick, hoping to get the horse to himself. He decided to dress in rags,dirtyhis face and blindfold himself. Then, he lay by the roadside to wait for the owner of the horse.
When he saw Nabor coming on his beautiful horse, he cried out in a weak voice, “I am dying; help me please. For three days and nights I have been unable to move from this spot to find food.”
Nabor kindly offered to take him on his horse and carry him home; but Jehu replied,“I cannot stand;I have no strength left.” Nabor felt pity and got off his horse. He led his horse to the man and,with great difficulty, helped him onto the horse’s back. But, once Jehu was sitting in the saddle (鞍), he kicked the horse and galloped off (疾驰), calling out as he did so, “I have the horse; and you will never see it again.Goodbye!”
Nabor was surprised and sad at first, but he soon ran after the thief, shouting to him to stop as he had something to say.
Certain that Nabor could not catch him by foot, Jehu turned the horse and stopped a short distance from Nabor. “You have taken my horse,” said Nabor, “but since I can do nothing to stop you, I have to accept my loss; but I beg you never to tell anyone how you got the horse.”
“And why not ” asked Jehu. “Because,” replied Nabor, “another man might be truly sick and in trouble, and men would be too fearful to help him. In this way, you would prevent others doing what is good and right for fear of being tricked as I have been.”
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。
Struck with shame at these words, Jehu was silent for a moment.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nabor was happy to hear what Jehu said.
