Most athletes who earn a chance to compete at the Olympics do not go home with medals. Here, some of them share how they get through their disappointments.
Moritz Muller
Sport: Ice hockey
Country: Germany
“I have learned through the years that setbacks (挫折) are a part of life and that everyone has them and that the most successful people are the ones who have had the biggest setbacks,” Muller says. “My biggest trick is not to take myself too seriously.”
Lewis Gibson
Sport: Ice dancing
Country: The United Kingdom
Gibson says that positive attitude has been the key to help him through disappointments. “I have learned the importance of replacing any doubts I might be feeling with belief in myself,” he says. “You fill your head with thoughts and it’s very powerful. You’re your own biggest influence.”
Adrian Diaz
Sport: Ice dancing
Country: Spain
After failing to make to the Olympics four years ago, Adrian Diaz worked on communicating more positively with his dancing partner so there wouldn’t be any tension on the ice. “Whether it’s a teammate, friend or family member, improving communication takes time and patience. But breakthroughs do come,” he says. “It took five years for us to fully understand what we had to do. Not just for skating and training but for life.”
Karen Chen
Sport: Figure skating
Country: The United States
“Athletes aren’t always open about all of the challenges they overcome to compete in front of the world at the Olympics,” says Chen. “I didn’t ever talk about them.

I did a crazy thing last weekend. I signed my family up for a six-mile hike out in the Yunmeng Mountains in Huairou District, Beijing.
Ever since we arrived in Beijing two years ago, my family has never walked around in any Beijing park for longer than two miles. I had signed up on Beijing Hikers’ hike several times before, but had always backed out at the last minute because of my son and husband’s protest. This time, I was not getting out of it!
When we woke up early on Saturday morning, it was raining cats and dogs. My husband turned to me and said, “Perfect hiking weather!”
But, I wasn’t backing down. If the other hikers thought that the weather was safe for hiking, then we were going! I did not regret even when our tour bus drove right into the heavy rain. Luckily, the rain stopped before we entered the mountains.
For the hike I had packed various snacks. When one treat stopped providing motivation for my 6-year-old son to put one foot in front of the other, I would turn to another to keep him moving. After I ran out of snacks, the guide cleverly asked him to look out for the red ribbons(丝带) that the Beijing Hikers use to mark the trail, and allowed him to collect them for her. This trick helped keep him moving for the first five miles of the well-kept road along the White River. However, the last mile was almost vertical(垂直的). While the kid had been moving like a snail for most of the walking part, he became a mountain goat when it came to the vertical climb. He actually led the group alongside the guide, leaving me and my husband far behind! We couldn’t even see him through the trees, and could only hear his merry voice carried by the wind.
Just then I turned to my husband and asked whether we would do it again. He replied, “I might feel much better if I were lying in bed dreaming about this hiking.”
4. What was the weather like early in the morning
A. Rainy. B. Cloudy. C. Sunny. D. Windy.
5. Which worked the best to encourage the little child
A. The snacks. B. The blue ribbons.
C. The easy hike. D. The difficult climb.
6. What did the author’s husband imply in the last paragraph
A. He loved hiking in the rain. B. He was too sleepy to walk.
C He preferred staying at home. D. He didn’t have the final say.
7. What can we know about the author according to the text
A. She is romantic. B. She is determined.
C. She is humorous. D. She is good at scheduling.
C
It’s late at night, the weather is bad, and you’re hungry. Your favorite restaurant is a mile away, but you don’t want to leave the house, and you don’t want to pay a $5 delivery fee and a tip for a $10 meal.
So, what can you do
Back in the old days, you would have to go in the rain or learned to plan ahead. But those days are coming to an end, at least in Washington DC.
About 20 knee-high robots recently have appeared on the sidewalks of the nation’s capital, and they’re out to bring takeout food from restaurants to hungry customers at home—while keeping the delivery cost to just a dollar.
Each of the robots seems like a box on sixwheels, and drives at an average speed of 4 miles per hour. It has lights and a tall and bright orange flag to make it more noticeable on the sidewalk.
The robot relies on artificial intelligence technology that draws input from nine cameras, GPS and sensors. The cameras recognize a lot—including traffic lights, crosswalks and stop signs. If a robot finds itself in a situation it doesn’t understand, all the machine has to do is send a call for help. Then a human operator in a remote control center can look through the cameras and figure out the best action to take. That camera also provides security. If someone tries to steal the robot, for example, the cameras can photograph the thief.
Law-makers in Washington DC, Virginia, Florida and Idaho have already started to make such self-driving robots legal on the sidewalks. Other states have also expressed interest.
“Robots like these will complete deliveries that normally wouldn’t have been placed with the human-based delivery options of the past” one of the law-makers says, “But we have to be sure that they are not going to put people out of jobs.”
8. How much should you pay for a $10 meal delivered by robots
A. $10. B. $1l. C. $15. D. $17.
9. Which paragraph mainly focuses on the robots’ appearances
A. Paragraph 3. B. Paragraph 4.
C. Paragraph 5. D. Paragraph 6.
10. What are the law-makers worried about
A. The robots’ reliability. B. The safety of the passers-by.
C. The high delivery costs. D. The possible unemployment.
11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Technology. B. Advertisement.
C. Law. D. Politics.
D
You don’t need to be an expert to recognize luna moths (蚕蛾). They have hairy white bodies, red legs and huge green wings that stretch up to 4.5 inches across. And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries.
Some of them theorized that it was possible that female moths judged the health and quality of a male by the size of his tails. But it turned out that female moths were not choosy at all. They just mate with the first males they could find. Others believed that the tails could increase luna moths’ size to make them harder for the bats-the main enemy of luna moths—to handle. But the theory proved wrong in 1903 when a scientist named Archibald Weeks put bats against a bigger species of moths that lacked tails. He found that the bats killed 66% of their targets. Luna moths, despite being smaller, were harder to catch. “Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.”
He was roughly right. More than a century later, Jesse Barber from Boise State University put luna moths against bats in a dark room and filmed the hunting. Under normal circumstances, the bats only managed to catch 35% of the luna moths. But if Barber cut off their tails beforehand, the bats caught 81% of them. That was not because the moths became worse fliers—in fact, cutting the troublesome tails seemed to have improved their flying abilities.
Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. They found their food with a special sound. To be protected from bats, luna moths needed something that made confusing sounds. That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. To bats, they either sounded like a huge part of their target, or like an entirely different target. As a result, they aimed about half their attacks at the tails.
12. What is Arehibald Weeks’ important contribution
A. He found that bats are the main enemy of luna moths.
B. He theorized that luna moths use their tails to confuse bats.
C. He proved that Juna moths’ size is important for their survival.
D. He observed that female moths prefer male moths with longer tails.
13. What can be learned about bats from Jesse Barber’s conclusion
A. They are not visual hunters.
B. They usually hunt in the day.
C. They like bigger species of moths.
D. They can fly further than luna moths.
14. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Bats. B. Wings. C. Luna moths. D. Tail beats.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Who Is Right About Luna Moths’ Tails, Barber or Weeks
B. How Do Bats Use Their Special Sounds to Search for Food
C. Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails
D. What Are the Disadvantages for Luna Moths to Have Long Tails

When I was in seventh grade, my parents paid forty dollars a week for a tutor to come to my house and help me with math, which ended up raising my mark from fifty to fifty-five. OK, maybe it was partly my fault. Maybe I should have spent less time worrying about that important geography assignment and more time on math. But math is a tricky thing. And sitting down in a chair to work on confusing algebraic equations(代数方程) for two hours is a slow and painful process. Besides, people around tend to ask. “How’s your math this time ”
So I became afraid of anything to do with numbers. The thought of a teacher picking on me in class was terrifying. The red marking was like a component in a horror movie. It only got worse in ninth grade. Every report card I ever received was delivered with the comment: “Victoria needs to ask for assistance in class.” But I couldn’t tell my teachers the real reason why I didn’t ask for help: I didn’t want to be a fool. Every question I had was, in my opinion at the time, something that the entire class could understand but I couldn’t. So instead, I adopted the mindset of not caring about anything and concluding that everything would work out in the end.
It didn’t. After spending a semester not caring about homework and not trying on tests, still afraid of math and convinced that I would never succeed, my math teacher called one summer morning to tell me I would spend the next three weeks at school redoing the entire course so I could pass.
This news was met with sudden tears, and a loud “this can’t be happening to me!” That’s when it hit me. Why was I scared of a bunch of numbers, anyway Why did I barely study for tests because I had convinced myself I would never do well Who was this unconfident student and what happened to that determined and confident teenager I had once 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。
I finally realized that I had let math take over my life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
So I was off to three weeks of summer school, three hours of math each day.

(虽然这个孩子在行走的大部分时间里都像蜗牛一样移动，但在垂直攀爬时，他变成了一只山羊。事实上，他和导游一起带领团队，把我和我丈夫远远甩在了后面！我们甚至无法透过树林看到他，只能听到风吹过他欢快的声音。)”可知，小家伙感到最刺激的是那陡峭的山路。故选D。

It’s late at night the weather is bad, and you’re hungry. Your favorite restaurant is a mile away, but you don’t want to leave the house, and you don’t want to pay a $5 delivery fee and a tip for a $10 meal.
So, what can you do
Back in the old days, you would have to go in the rain or learned to plan ahead. But those days are coming to an end, at least in Washington DC.
About 20 knee-high robots recently have appeared on the sidewalks of the nation’s capital, and they’re out to bring takeout food from restaurants to hungry customers at home—while keeping the delivery cost to just a dollar.
Each of the robots seems like a box on sixwheels, and drives at an average speed of 4 miles per hour. It has lights and a tall and bright orange flag to make it more noticeable on the sidewalk.
The robot relies on artificial intelligence technology that draws input from nine cameras, GPS and sensors. The cameras recognize a lot—including traffic lights, crosswalks and stop signs. If a robot finds itself in a situation it doesn’t understand, all the machine has to do is send a call for help. Then a human operator in a remote control center can look through the cameras and figure out the best action to take. That camera also provides security. If someone tries to steal the robot, for example, the cameras can photograph the thief.
Law-makers in Washington DC, Virginia, Florida and Idaho have already started to make such self-driving robots legal on the sidewalks. Other states have also expressed interest.
“Robots like these will complete deliveries that normally wouldn’t have been placed with the human-based delivery options of the past,” one of the law-makers says, “But we have to be sure that they are not going to put people out of jobs.”
8. How much should you pay for a $10 meal delivered by robots
A. $10. B. $1l. C. $15. D. $17.
9. Which paragraph mainly focuses on the robots’ appearances
A. Paragraph 3. B. Paragraph 4.
C. Paragraph 5. D. Paragraph 6.
10. What are the law-makers worried about
A. The robots’ reliability. B. The safety of the passers-by.
C. The high delivery costs. D. The possible unemployment.
11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Technology. B. Advertisement.
C. Law. D. Politics.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了最近出现在华盛顿特区街头的智能“快递小哥”。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“while keeping the delivery cost to just a dollar.(同时把送货成本控制在一美元左右。)”可知，机器人送餐10美元，顾客只要支付10+1=11美金。故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“Each of the robots seems like a box on six wheels, and drives at an average speed of 4 miles per hour. It has lights and a tall and bright orange flag to make it more noticeable on the sidewalk.(每个机器人看起来都像一个装有六个轮子的盒子，以每小时4英里的平均速度行驶。它有灯和一个高而明亮的橙色旗帜，使它在人行道上更引人注目。)”可知，第5段主要讲的是机器人的外观。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“one of the law-makers says, “But we have to be sure that they are not going to put people out of jobs.”(一位立法者说：“但我们必须确保它们不会让人们失业。”)”可知，立法者担心的是送餐机器人可能带来的失业冲击。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了出现在华盛顿特区街头的智能送餐机器人。因此很可能会出现在“科技”版面。故选A。

You don’t need to be an expert to recognize luna moths (蚕蛾). They have hairy white bodies, red legs and huge green wings that stretch up to 4.5 inches across. And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries.
Some of them theorized that it was possible that female moths judged the health and quality of a male by the size of his tails. But it turned out that female moths were not choosy at all. They just mate with the first males they could find. Others believed that the tails could increase luna moths’ size to make them harder for the bats-the main enemy of luna moths—to handle. But the theory proved wrong in 1903 when a scientist named Archibald Weeks put bats against a bigger species of moths that lacked tails. He found that the bats killed 66% of their targets. Luna moths, despite being smaller, were harder to catch. “Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.”
He was roughly right. More than a century later, Jesse Barber from Boise State University put luna moths against bats in a dark room and filmed the hunting. Under normal circumstances, the bats only managed to catch 35% of the luna moths. But if Barber cut off their tails beforehand, the bats caught 81% of them. That was not because the moths became worse fliers—in fact, cutting the troublesome tails seemed to have improved their flying abilities.
Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. They found their food with a special sound. To be protected from bats, luna moths needed something that made confusing sounds. That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. To bats, they either sounded like a huge part of their target, or like an entirely different target. As a result, they aimed about half their attacks at the tails.
12. What is Arehibald Weeks’ important contribution
A. He found that bats are the main enemy of luna moths.
B. He theorized that luna moths use their tails to confuse bats.
C. He proved that Juna moths’ size is important for their survival.
D. He observed that female moths prefer male moths with longer tails.
13. What can be learned about bats from Jesse Barber’s conclusion
A. They are not visual hunters.
B. They usually hunt in the day.
C. They like bigger species of moths.
D. They can fly further than luna moths.
14. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Bats. B. Wings. C. Luna moths. D. Tail beats.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Who Is Right About Luna Moths’ Tails, Barber or Weeks
B. How Do Bats Use Their Special Sounds to Search for Food
C. Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails
D. What Are the Disadvantages for Luna Moths to Have Long Tails
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了蚕蛾为什么会长出长尾巴。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.” (Weeks观察到：“显然，它们的尾巴提供了反蝙蝠的优势，我认为它们被用来引导蝙蝠离开蚕蛾的身体。)”可知，Arehibald Weeks提出：蚕蛾用尾巴迷惑蝙蝠，引导蝙蝠远离自己，故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. (Barber解释说，蝙蝠不是视觉猎人。)”可知，Jesse Barber总结：蝙蝠不是视觉猎人。故选A。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. (那就是蚕蛾的尾巴所做的：当它们飞时，尾巴在它们身后挥舞，并发出类似于它们翅膀拍打的声音。)”可知，此处描述蚕蛾飞时，尾巴产生的声音。上下文内容一致，故推知they指代Tail beats，表示“尾巴拍打的声音”。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“You don’t need to be an expert to recognize luna moths (蚕蛾). They have hairy white bodies, red legs and huge green wings that stretch up to 4.5 inches across. And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries. (你无需成为专家即可认出蚕蛾。它们有毛茸茸的白色身体，红色的腿和伸展到4.5英寸的巨大绿色翅膀。在它们的翅膀末端是一对长尾巴，几个世纪以来一直吸引着科学家。)”可知，文章主要讲述几个世纪以来一直吸引着科学家的蚕蛾的长尾巴之谜。故标题为Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails (为什么月蚕蛾会有这么麻烦的长尾巴？)，故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了如何通过科学洗手防止COVID-19病毒的传播。
【16题详解】
根据后文“The amount of time spent on hand-washing is important. To do this right, you have to wet your hands with clean water, put soap on every surface, rub your hands together for at least 20 seconds, and wash before drying.(花在洗手上时间很重要。要做到这一点，你必须用清水打湿你的手，在每个表面都涂上肥皂，双手摩擦至少20秒，然后在干燥前清洗)”可知，本段主要是关于洗手的问题，且后文提到了至少20秒，故A选项“洗手至少20秒”符合语境，故选A。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Wash your fingertips and nails. If you think about it, most of the touching and most of the viruses are on your fingertips and under your fingernails.(洗你的指尖和指甲。如果你仔细想想，大部分的接触和大部分的病毒都在你的指尖和指甲下)”以及后文“Therefore, it is very important to pay closer attention to the fingertips and nails. (因此，更密切地注意指尖和指甲是非常重要的)”可知，空前谈到指尖及指甲不但是与外界接触最多的地方，也是细菌最集中的地方，空后则强调要特别注意冲洗这两个部位，故本句是在说明原因：它们是洗手时经常被忽略的部分。故G选项“但是它们是洗手时经常被忽略的部分”符合语境，故选G。
【18题详解】
根据后文“During that time, you risk contaminating (污染) yourself or others at home if you don’t wash your hands immediately. (在这段时间里，如果你不立即洗手，你就有可能感染自己或家里的其他人)”可知，本句主要是在说明病毒存活的时间问题，F选项中for 15 to 30 minutes对应后文During that time。故F选项“COVID-19病毒可以在手部和其他表面存活15至30分钟”符合语境，故选F。
【19题详解】
根据上文“If you use the hand sanitizer, it’s important to know that it is only active as long as it is on your hands.(如果你使用洗手液，重要的是要知道它只有在你手上才有效)”以及后文“keep the sanitizer on for at least 10 seconds.(保持洗手液开着至少10秒)”可知，本句主要是关于洗手液的说明，C选项it指代后文sanitizer。故C选项“所以即使它让你的手湿得令人讨厌”符合语境，故选C。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Let’s wash our hands properly every day. (让我们每天正确洗手)”可知，本句承接上文说明每天正确洗手的意义和重要性：这是我们保持健康和保护家人的最好方法之一。故E选项“这是我们保持健康和保护家人的最好方法之一”符合语境，故选E。

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。
When I was in seventh grade, my parents paid forty dollars a week for a tutor to come to my house and help me with math, which ended up raising my mark from fifty to fifty-five. OK, maybe it was partly my fault. Maybe I should have spent less time worrying about that important geography assignment and more time on math. But math is a tricky thing. And sitting down in a chair to work on confusing algebraic equations(代数方程) for two hours is a slow and painful process. Besides, people around tend to ask. “How’s your math this time ”
So I became afraid of anything to do with numbers. The thought of a teacher picking on me in class was terrifying. The red marking was like a component in a horror movie. It only got worse in ninth grade. Every report card I ever received was delivered with the comment: “Victoria needs to ask for assistance in class.” But I couldn’t tell my teachers the real reason why I didn’t ask for help: I didn’t want to be a fool. Every question I had was, in my opinion at the time, something that the entire class could understand but I couldn’t. So instead, I adopted the mindset of not caring about anything and concluding that everything would work out in the end.
It didn’t. After spending a semester not caring about homework and not trying on tests, still afraid of math and convinced that I would never succeed, my math teacher called one summer morning to tell me I would spend the next three weeks at school redoing the entire course so I could pass.
This news was met with sudden tears, and a loud “this can’t be happening to me!” That’s when it hit me. Why was I scared of a bunch of numbers, anyway Why did I barely study for tests because I had convinced myself I would never do well Who was this unconfident student and what happened to that determined and confident teenager I had once been

【答案】I finally realized that I had let math take over my life. I needed to talk about it with my parents. So after school, I took the courage to tell my parents the bad news, and they were silent. Trembling with fright, I waited for their blame. However, they encouraged me to have another try to take the three weeks of summer school . It was then that I determined to take math seriously.
So I was off to three weeks of summer school, three hours of math each day. During the three weeks, I turned to my math teacher for help and told him about my determination. My math teacher was happy that I finally decided to work hard on math.Thanks to his patient guidance and my devotion, I made great progress and was relieved of the fear of math. Finally, I made it to a good high school and a university. Now I’m a teacher and I’m grateful to my parents and my math teacher.

【导语】本文以时间为线索展开，讲述了作者上七年级的时候数学不好，父母给作者请家教，但是成绩还是提不上来，后来到了九年级情况就更糟糕，最后甚至不关心家庭作业，也不参加考试，仍然害怕数学，直到一天我收到数学老师的电话，告诉我接下来的三个星期里在学校重修整门课程，这样我就可以通过考试，我突然哭了起来，开始反思自己为什么害怕数字，为什么学不好数学。
