阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Eggs-perimenting with eggs
What can you do with eggs other than eat them
Naked Eggs
What does an egg look like without its shell You may be picturing the white and yolk in a bowl after cracking it, but that isn’t the only way to remove the shell.
Materials: an egg, white vinegar, a bowl, a spoon
Directions: Fill a bowl with one cup of vinegar. Add the egg to the bowl, and wait at least 24 hours. When you check it after a day, you’ll notice some bubbles on the egg and a residue (残留物) in the water. Use the spoon to gently remove the egg from the bowl. Dump out the old vinegar, and add a cup of fresh vinegar. Return the egg to the bowl, and wait another 24 hours. When you remove the egg this time, the shell should be completely dissolved. What remains will be the contents of the egg.
Walking on Eggshells
Can Eggs hold the weight of your entire body
Materials: six cartons (硬纸盒) of eggs, a garbage bag
Directions: Place the garbage bag on the floor to make any necessary clean up easier. Place the cartons of eggs into two rows of three. Make sure all the eggs are pointing in the same direction— either all pointy end up or all rounded end up. Step onto the first carton of eggs carefully. Make sure your foot is as flat as possible and that you are distributing your weight evenly. If you’re careful, you will succeed. Eggs are actually incredibly strong. The arch shape at the top and the bottom of the egg allows pressure to be distributed evenly over the egg. If you were to place the eggs on their sides instead, you’d be likely to wind up with a gooey (胶粘的) mess.
1. In the first experiment, what causes the eggshell to dissolve
A. Vinegar. B. Water. C. Bubbles. D. Residue
2. What makes the eggs strong enough to walk across
A. The position of eggs. B. The number of eggs.
C. The weight of eggs. D. The distribution of eggs.
3. What was the author’s purpose in writing this text
A. To persuade readers to use eggs in new ways.
B. To entertain readers with funny use for eggs.
C. To tell readers some ways to experiment with eggs.
D. To inspire readers to conduct experiments carefully.
B
Growing up on a farm, I learned from my parents about the large bees we called mangangava. But in college when I gave a presentation about those bees, I didn’t mention their familiar name; instead I used formal terms when describing their adaptations for pollinating (授粉). I was afraid of being judged for expressing my personal knowledge in a science class. But when the instructor pressed me to tell the class whether I’d seen the bees myself and what I called them, my views and my whole career path began to change. I realized my background was valuable, and that my calling was to help educate others like me.
My parents worked on a small farm and I often helped out when I was not in school. They had a close relationship with nature, something they learned from my grandparents and passed down to me. This was why I became interested in biology.
In college, I joined a series of labs to gain research experience, but my interest in pursuing a career as a scientist began to wane after I realized my research was not helping poor people like my parents. As a black student from a rural community, I also felt out of place in most classes. The feeling of not belonging circled in my head. I sometimes thought about giving up.
My instructor’s request that I share my knowledge of the mangangava bee changed my view. She saw that tapping into my personal experiences would help me grasp the scientific concepts. No other professor bad shown that kind of sensitivity, which helped me realize I did have a place in higher education and that I didn’t need to hide who I truly am.
I’m now a master’s student in education, working on a project that explores the connect ion between science and traditional knowledge. I don’t think I’d be here if I hadn’t crossed paths with my instructor. We ne ed more educators and scientists like her people who can serve as role models and know that the best way to nurture new scientists is to allow students to be themselves.
4. What did the author initially think of his background when in college
A. It was of little use for his college studies.
B. It motivated him to carry on his research.
C. It gave him an advantage over others.
D. It was something he wanted to hide.
5. What does the underlined word “wane” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. remain B. advance C. fade D. rise
6. What should a good educator do according to the author
A. Value students’ personal knowledge and views.
B. Inspire students to work as hard as he or she does.
C. Treat students from different backgrounds equally.
D. Be equipped with rich knowledge of a certain field.
7. What is the main idea of this passage
A. The family is one of the nature’s masterpieces.
B. Every man is the architect of his own fortune.
C. A good teacher is better than ten thousand books.
D. Good habits formed at youth make all the difference.
C
Most of us spend our lives surrounded by screens, which offer us convenience as well as connection and an ocean of information. But since it’s easy to feel pressured to keep up with every notification, technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing. Thus, the idea of “digital detox” is becoming increasingly inviting.
The phrase “digital detox” describes getting rid of TV, phones, computers and other forms of technology that control our lives for a period of time. Some experts advocate completely avoiding unnecessary screen time for 30 years. Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites. A third option is logging out in evenings or on weekends. Others simply turn their phones off at scheduled times. Some even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can unplug from their digital routine.
Why might you want to take a digital detox Perhaps you find that you are spending longer than you intend on certain apps or that they distract you from more important things. Perhaps social media is depressing because you compare yourself to others or you fear missing out on things that other people are enjoying. Constant negative news can also give rise to a lot of stress.
Technology can also have physical effects. Many people experience back or neck pain as a result of bending over screens. The blue light coming from most screens can also affect people’s sleep by preventing production of melatonin (褪黑素).
Giving up all screens may not be realistic but strategic breaks from technology may be good for your body, mind, emotions and relationships. It is high time that you picked a time to turn off your devices and focus on really important things.
8. Why does the author say “technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing” in paragraph 1
A. To confirm a concept.
B. To explain a rule.
C. To present a problem.
D. To make a prediction.
9. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about
A. Forms of getting rid of “digital detox”.
B. Suggestions of practicing “digital detox”.
C. Ways of avoiding screen time completely.
D. Options of unplugging all digital routine.
10. Which could be the reason for one to start “digital detox”
A. Pressure from social comparison.
B. Fear of missing important things.
C. Exposure to false news.
D. Apps selection difficulty.
11. Which section of the website may this article come from
A. Entertainment. B. Technology . C. Health. D. Education.
D
Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play arc already well established. Our brains evolved in natural landscapes, and our perceptual (感知的) systems are particularly well suited to wild outdoor spaces.
This means that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation, which is thought to help recharge the brain when it is tired and easily distractible. Supporting this theory, one study found that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) were better able to concentrate following a 20-minute walk in the park, compared to a 20-minute walk on the streets of a well-kept urban area. Being exposed to grass and trees seemed to have had a beneficial effect on their minds. The authors recommended using such “doses (剂量) of nature” as a safe and accessible way of supporting children with ADHD, alongside other tools.
Besides these restorative effects, outdoor play can offer valuable learning experiences. For example, playing with mud or sand can help children develop the way their senses and movement interact, which allows the child to gradually understand his or her body signals.
Such activities away from the house or classroom may also help children to find ways to cope with emotions that may be hard to explore in other environments. So-called “sand tray therapy” which involves using sand and clay to express one’s thoughts and feelings, is an accepted form of counselling for children who are struggling to verbalize their emotional state.
When it comes to the child’s physical health, the most obvious advantage of outdoor play may be the exercise. A child may find it easier to build up strength and endurance in a large open space resulting in a reduced risk of overweight, according to one study led by Elizabeth Gershoff, professor of human development and family sciences at the University of Texas at Austin, US.
The latest findings, however, suggest there could be a host of other advantages to playing in natural environments — and the secret may be alive in the mud itself.
12. What’s the function of the first paragraph
A. To present the evolution of our brains. B. To display the natural landscapes.
C. To introduce the perceptual systems. D. To reveal the well-established benefits.
13. How does the study show that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation
A. By comparing the restorative effects of walking in different settings.
B. By recommending applying some “doses of nature” to children.
C. By allowing children to gradually understand their bodies’ signals.
D. By helping children to find ways to cope with the environment.
14. Whom is “sand tray therapy” most beneficial to
A. Jack, a boy who can’t concentrate in the class . B. Mary, a girl who needs to go on a dict.
C. Lily, a girl who is lack of endurance. D. Tom, a boy who lives in his own world.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Playing in the mud is the best outdoor exercise. B. Playing outdoors brings many unexpected benefits.
C. Playing outdoors can cure children with ADHD. D. Playing in the mud reduces the risk of overweight.

【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了两个用鸡蛋做实验的方法。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Naked Eggs下的Directions:“Fill a bowl with one cup of vinegar. Add the egg to the bowl, and wait at least 24 hours. When you check it after a day, you’ll notice some bubbles on the egg and a residue (残留物) in the water. Use the spoon to gently remove the egg from the bowl. Dump out the old vinegar, and add a cup of fresh vinegar. Return the egg to the bowl, and wait another 24 hours. When you remove the egg this time, the shell should be completely dissolved. What remains will be the contents of the egg. (在碗中加入一杯醋。将鸡蛋加入碗中,等待至少24小时。当你一天后检查它时,你会注意到鸡蛋上有一些气泡和水中的残留物。用勺子轻轻地把鸡蛋从碗里舀出来。倒出旧醋,加入一杯新醋。将鸡蛋放回碗中,再等24小时。当你这次取出鸡蛋时,蛋壳应该完全溶解了。剩下的将是蛋的成分(蛋黄和蛋清)。)” 可知在第一个实验中,是醋导致蛋壳溶解,故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Walking on Eggshells下的“Eggs are actually incredibly strong. The arch shape at the top and the bottom of the egg allows pressure to be distributed evenly over the egg. If you were to place the eggs on their sides instead, you’d be likely to wind up with a gooey (胶粘的) mess.(鸡蛋实际上非常结实。鸡蛋顶部和底部的拱形形状可以使压力均匀地分布在鸡蛋上。如果你把鸡蛋放在它们的侧面,你可能会得到一团黏糊糊的东西。)” 可知是鸡蛋的分布让这些蛋足够结实,可以走过去,故选D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,可知文章主要讲述两个用鸡蛋做实验的方法,所以目的就是告诉我们鸡蛋除了吃,还可以用来做实验以及具体的实验方法,故选C。
B

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过作者从小生活在农场,对一种名叫mangangava蜜蜂很熟悉,在大学做有关与这种蜜蜂的报告时,被导师鼓励用自己的经验来介绍这种蜜蜂而不是书上的内容,导师的鼓励打开了作者科学研究的道路。文章向我们说明了一个道理:一位好老师,胜过万卷书。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段内容“But in college when I gave a presentation about those bees, I didn’t mention their familiar name; instead I used formal terms when describing their adaptations for pollinating(授粉). I was afraid of being judged for expressing my personal knowledge in a science class. (但在大学里,当我做关于这些蜜蜂的演讲时,我没有提到它们熟悉的名字;相反,我在描述它们对授粉的适应时使用了正式的术语。我害怕因为在科学课上表达了我的个人知识而受到评判)”,“ I realized my background was valuable, and that my calling was to help educate others like me.(我意识到我的背景很有价值,我的使命是帮助教育像我这样的人)”和第四段“No other professor bad shown that kind of sensitivity, which helped me realize I did have a place in higher education and that I didn’t need to hide who I truly am.(没有其他坏教授表现出这种敏感性,这让我意识到我在高等教育中确实有一席之地,我不需要隐瞒自己的真实身份)”可知,作者在科学课上作报告时没有用他熟悉的名字,用专业的术语来介绍这种蜜蜂,因为他害怕因为表达个人知识被人评论,后来那次事情之后他意识到他的背景知识是有价值的,作者意识到不必隐藏真正的自己。由此可推知,在大学里作者起初想隐藏自己的背景。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线所在的句子“after I realized my research was not helping poor people like my parents(在我意识到我的研究并没有帮助像我父母这样的穷人之后)”以及“The feeling of not belonging circled in my head. I sometimes thought about giving up.(不归属感在我的脑海中盘旋。我有时想过放弃)”可知,当作者意识到自己的研究并没有帮助像父母这样的穷人时,作者对从事科学家职业的兴趣开始减弱。由此推知,划线词wane意为“减退,减弱”。故选C
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“We ne ed more educators and scientists like her people who can serve as role models and know that the best way to nurture new scientists is to allow students to be themselves.(我们需要更多像她这样的教育工作者和科学家,他们可以成为榜样,知道培养新科学家的最好方法是让学生做自己)”可知,作者认为优秀的教育者应该要为学生树立榜样,让学生做自己。由此可推知,作者认为一个好的教育者应该尊重和挖掘学生自己已有的知识、经历和看法,像他在故事中提到的导师那样。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“I don’t think I’d be here if I hadn’t crossed paths with my instructor. We ne ed more educators and scientists like her people who can serve as role models and know that the best way to nurture new scientists is to allow students to be themselves.(如果我没有和我的教练相遇,我想我不会在这里。我们需要更多像她这样的教育工作者和科学家,他们可以成为榜样,知道培养新科学家的最好方法是让学生做自己)”及全文可知,文章通过作者从小生活在农场,对一种名叫mangangava蜜蜂很熟悉,在大学做有关与这种蜜蜂的报告时,被导师鼓励用自己的经验来介绍这种蜜蜂而不是书上的内容,导师的鼓励打开了作者科学研究的道路。文章向我们说明了一个道理:一位好老师,胜过万卷书。故选C。

Most of us spend our lives surrounded by screens, which offer us convenience as well as connection and an ocean of information. But since it’s easy to feel pressured to keep up with every notification, technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing. Thus, the idea of “digital detox” is becoming increasingly inviting.
The phrase “digital detox” describes getting rid of TV, phones, computers and other forms of technology that control our lives for a period of time. Some experts advocate completely avoiding unnecessary screen time for 30 years. Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites. A third option is logging out in evenings or on weekends. Others simply turn their phones off at scheduled times. Some even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can unplug from their digital routine.
Why might you want to take a digital detox Perhaps you find that you are spending longer than you intend on certain apps or that they distract you from more important things. Perhaps social media is depressing because you compare yourself to others or you fear missing out on things that other people are enjoying. Constant negative news can also give rise to a lot of stress.
Technology can also have physical effects. Many people experience back or neck pain as a result of bending over screens. The blue light coming from most screens can also affect people’s sleep by preventing production of melatonin (褪黑素).
Giving up all screens may not be realistic, but strategic breaks from technology may be good for your body, mind, emotions and relationships. It is high time that you picked a time to turn off your devices and focus on really important things.
8. Why does the author say “technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing” in paragraph 1
A. To confirm a concept.
B. To explain a rule.
C. To present a problem.
D. To make a prediction.
9. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about
A. Forms of getting rid of “digital detox”.

【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Most of us spend our lives surrounded by screens, which offer us convenience as well as connection and an ocean of information. But since it’s easy to feel pressured to keep up with every notification, technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing.(我们大多数人的生活都被屏幕包围着,屏幕为我们提供了便利、联系和信息的海洋。但是,由于人们很容易感到跟上每条通知的压力,技术可能更像是一种负担,而不是一种祝福)”以及后文的“Thus, the idea of “digital detox” is becoming increasingly inviting.(因此,“数字排毒”的概念正变得越来越受欢迎)”可知,虽然电子设备给我们的生活提供了便利以及海量的信息,但大量的信息通知以及提供有时却给人类增加了负担而不是乐趣,由此后文提出解决问题的方式“数字排毒”。由此推知,作者提到“technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing(技术可能更像是一种负担而不是一种祝福)”的目的是为了提出当前人类所面临的问题。故选C项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The phrase “digital detox” describes getting rid of TV, phones, computers and other forms of technology that control our lives for a period of time. Some experts advocate completely avoiding unnecessary screen time for 30 years. Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites. A third option is logging out in evenings or on weekends. Others simply turn their phones off at scheduled times. Some even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can unplug from their digital routine.(“数字排毒”指的是在一段时间内摆脱电视、电话、电脑和其他控制我们生活的科技产品。一些专家主张在30年内完全避免不必要的屏幕时间。还有人建议使用一款可以限制人们在某些网站上花费的时间的应用程序。第三种选择是在晚上或周末退出。其他人只是在预定的时间关掉手机。有些人甚至花高价去度假,在那里他们可以从数字生活中解脱出来)”可知,文章第二段主要讲的是实践“数字排毒”的建议。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Perhaps social media is depressing because you compare yourself to others or you fear missing out on things that other people are enjoying.(也许社交媒体令人沮丧是因为你把自己和别人比较,或者你害怕错过别人喜欢的东西)”可知,一个人可能开始“数字排毒”的原因是他把自己和别人比较,也就是来自社会比较的压力。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章大意以及倒数第二段“Technology can also have physical effects. Many people experience back or neck pain as a result of bending over screens. The blue light coming from most screens can also affect people’s sleep by preventing production of melatonin (褪黑素).(科技也会对身体产生影响。许多人因为低头看屏幕而感到背部或颈部疼痛。大多数屏幕发出的蓝光也会阻止褪黑激素的产生,从而影响人们的睡眠)”可知,文章提到了关于科技对于健康的影响。由此推知,这篇文章可能来自网站的健康板块部分。故选C项。
D
Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play arc already well established. Our brains evolved in natural landscapes, and our perceptual (感知的) systems are particularly well suited to wild outdoor spaces.
This means that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation, which is thought to help recharge the brain when it is tired and easily distractible. Supporting this theory, one study found that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) were better able to concentrate following a 20-minute walk in the park, compared to a 20-minute walk on the streets of a well-kept urban area. Being exposed to grass and trees seemed to have had a beneficial effect on their minds. The authors recommended using such “doses (剂量) of nature” as a safe and accessible way of supporting children with ADHD, alongside other tools.
Besides these restorative effects, outdoor play can offer valuable learning experiences. For example, playing with mud or sand can help children develop the way their senses and movement interact, which allows the child to gradually understand his or her body signals.
Such activities away from the house or classroom may also help children to find ways to cope with emotions that may be hard to explore in other environments. So-called “sand tray therapy” which involves using sand and clay to express one’s thoughts and feelings, is an accepted form of counselling for children who are struggling to verbalize their emotional state.
When it comes to the child’s physical health, the most obvious advantage of outdoor play may be the exercise. A child may find it easier to build up strength and endurance in a large open space resulting in a reduced risk of overweight, according to one study led by Elizabeth Gershoff, professor of human development and family sciences at the University of Texas at Austin, US.
The latest findings, however, suggest there could be a host of other advantages to playing in natural environments — and the secret may be alive in the mud itself.
12. What’s the function of the first paragraph
A. To present the evolution of our brains. B. To display the natural landscapes.
C. To introduce the perceptual systems. D. To reveal the well-established benefits.
13. How does the study show that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation
A. By comparing the restorative effects of walking in different settings.
B. By recommending applying some “doses of nature” to children.
C. By allowing children to gradually understand their bodies’ signals.
D. By helping children to find ways to cope with the environment.
14. Whom is “sand tray therapy” most beneficial to
A. Jack, a boy who can’t concentrate in the class . B. Mary, a girl who needs to go on a dict.
C. Lily, a girl who is lack of endurance. D. Tom, a boy who lives in his own world.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Playing in the mud is the best outdoor exercise. B. Playing outdoors brings many unexpected benefits.
C. Playing outdoors can cure children with ADHD. D. Playing in the mud reduces the risk of overweight.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是户外玩耍对孩子心理恢复的好处。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play arc already well established. Our brains evolved in natural landscapes, and our perceptual (感知的) systems are particularly well suited to wild outdoor spaces.(户外运动的许多心理益处已经确立。我们的大脑是在自然环境中进化而来的,我们的感知系统特别适合野外的环境)”可推知,第一段主要为了揭示户外运动公认的好处。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Supporting this theory, one study found that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) were better able to concentrate following a 20-minute walk in the park, compared to a 20-minute walk on the streets of a well-kept urban area. Being exposed to grass and trees seemed to have had a beneficial effect on their minds.(为了支持这一理论,一项研究发现,患有注意力缺陷多动障碍的儿童,在公园散步20分钟后要比在一个保持良好的城市地区的街道上散步能够更好地集中注意力。暴露在草地和树木中似乎对他们的思想有益)”可推知,作者通过比较不同环境下的行走,来表明自然景色能够提供完美的刺激,故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“So-called “sand tray therapy” which involves using sand and clay to express one’s thoughts and feelings, is an accepted form of counselling for children who are struggling to verbalize their emotional state.(所谓的“沙盘疗法”是指用沙子和粘土来表达自己的想法和感受,这是一种为难以用语言表达自己情绪状态的儿童提供咨询的公认形式)”可推知,“沙盘疗法”对D选项“一个生活在自己世界里的男孩汤姆”最有益。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The latest findings, however, suggest there could be a host of other advantages to playing in natural environments — and the secret may be alive in the mud itself.(然而,最新的研究结果表明,在自然环境中玩耍可能还有许多其他好处,而秘密可能就在泥里)”可推知,在户外玩耍带来许多意想不到的好处。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了中国山东省淄博市的烤肉特色和当地政府利用这一机会促进旅游和消费的情况。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随后,当地政府借此机会促进旅游业和消费。句中take the opportunity to do sth为固定短语,意为“抓住机会去做某事”。故填to promote。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意:3月31日,中国铁路济南局增开济南至淄博周末往返“烧烤之旅”专列。分析句子结构可知,空处为句子的谓语动词。句子表示经常性习惯性动作,所以使用一般过去时。故填added。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:最新的促销活动是,只要游客的最终目的地是淄博,就可以凭火车票免费进入该市的10个景点。根据句意可知,此处特指“促销活动”,所以空出用定冠词the表示特指。该词位于句首,所以首字母大写。故填The。

【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:烤串在端上餐桌之前要烹饪70-80%,食客可以在自己的炉子上完成烹饪,从而产生一种参与感。分析句子结构可知,空处与空格前的介词on构成“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句的结构。关系词在从句中作介词的宾语,指代先行词table,先行词指物,所以应该关系代词which引导定语从句。故填which。
【42题详解】

I’m writing to tell you I cannot attend the China Space Exhibition to be held next Saturday with you. I am so sorry about my absence of the visit. Please excuse me for the inconvenience caused by me.
I was really excited when I got two tickets for the wonderful exhibition. I’ve already searched much information about this show to equip myself as a guide to you. Unfortunately, yesterday my English teacher invited me to take part in a Speech contest to be held next Saturday.
To make your trip there more fulfilled, I will recommend you several documentaries to help you learn more about China space industry. I hope you enjoy the trip yourself.
Apologize for my absence again!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

【答案】One possible version:
Mike unwillingly agreed. Every other day,he would go running with his dad. He still went to the swim competitions each week but he didn’t do well. Seeing that it was really hard for Mike, his father sometimes couldn’t help inviting Mike to get some of his luck ice cream. But he refused the sweet treat and continued running with his father. He had made up his mind to overcame his difficulty so that he could regain his faith in himself. By and by,he could devote himself to training for the final competition,forgetting his luck ice cream thoroughly.
Finally the big competition of the season came. As he dived into the swimming pool, he kicked his legs and stretched his arms as hard as he could.This race seemed much longer. When he finished the race,he felt really tired and was not sure what to expect. Suddenly he heard thundering cheers from the audience and saw his parents were smiling from ear to ear. His jaws dropped as he looked at the scores.He had beaten his own record, and everyone else’s too. Only then did he realize that it was his parents’ encouragement and his strong determination that helped him pursue his dream.
