Lindsay couldn’t go to her gym after Beijing shut down indoor sports facilities in May because of a coronavirus outbreak. So she started cycling and soon fell in love with the sport. “I realized a racing bicycle was quite different from a regular bike,” she said. “It’s very fast and exciting, and I couldn’t stop anymore.”
Bicycles have long been a means of transport in China and once outnumbered cars on city streets. Now cycling is also increasingly seen as a sport by the urban middle class that has benefited from China’s growth into the world’s second largest economy. Biking events organized by Beijing cycling club Qiyi totaled about 10,000 participants over the past year, with about 50% of them regulars. Nationwide, at least 20 million people are participating in the sport, according to the Chinese Cycling Association.
The pandemic has played a role, with authorities moving quickly to close non-essential businesses, including gyms, during outbreaks under a strict zero-COVID approach. Cycling, which can be done individually as well as in groups, has largely been free from restrictions that limit gathering. For cyclist Yang Lan, the reason why she loves cycling is that the sport provides an escape from the daily life in the coronavirus era. “With the pandemic, it seems to be the only way for us to run away from the terrible city life and pace,” she said.
People will have more choices for sports and entertainment when the pandemic is over. But Feng Baozhong, the vice president of the Chinese Cycling Association says that he expects cycling to remain popular. Because it’s driven by China’s growing economy, growth of the sports industry and increasing concern about health due to COVID-19. “The pursuit of health will not disappear,” he said, “and the popularity of cycling is also a sign of the public’s awareness of environmental protection and pursuit of a low-carbon lifestyle.”
4.How many people in the Qiyi club take part in cycling activities regularly
A.More than 10,000. B.Around 10,000.
C.Around 5,000. D.Around 20,000,000.
5.Why does Yang Lan love cycling
A.She enjoys cycling alone.
B.She likes participating in cycling activities.
C.She can get a break from the city life.
D.She saves money by riding to work.

A.People are paying more attention to health issues.
B.China’s economy is getting worse due to the pandemic.
C.The sports industry is in crisis during the lockdown.
D.Other sports will replace cycling when the pandemic is over.
7.What is the most suitable title for the passage
A.Pandemic Harms Cycling B.Pandemic Fuels Cycling
C.Cycling Boosts Sports Industry D.Cycling Means a Low-carbon Lifestyle
Dentler was born in Mumbai, India in I978 and contracted polio (小儿麻痹症) at six months. At the age of three and a half, she was adopted by a couple in the US. She says, “I spent the first few years in America just going through a number of surgeries to basically straighten me out so I could then be fitted for leg braces and crutches.”
“In the early years, it was just me trying to be like my sisters,” she says. “I didn’t want to take the disabled bus to school. I wanted to be able to take the bus with my sisters. And so I had to learn how to go up the stairs.”
Later, when she was in her late 20s in New York City, a friend introduced her to a running club for athletes with disabilities where she learned how to use a handcycle (手动自行车): Push a three-wheeled low-to-the-ground bike using only her upper body.
Within seven months, she learned to swim and to compete using a racing wheelchair. When Dentler finished the triathlon (铁人三项赛), she was motivated to go farther. She soon took up half-Ironman distance triathlons, a distance of nearly 70 miles. And she kept meeting people, mostly able-bodied, with extraordinary athletic ambitions, which led her to attempt her first Ironman in Hawaii. That’s a distance of 140.6 miles.
“At the time, no female wheelchair athlete had ever made the time by the deadline to finish that race,” Dentler says. She missed the finish line on her first try. But a year later, in her second competition, she made it and finished the race in 14 hours and 39 minutes — the first female wheelchair athlete to complete the Ironman World Championship. She covered all those miles in water and on land, pushed entirely by her arms and upper body. She says, “I think it’s important to stay physically active.”
Now, she’s a mom. Dentler volunteered at the school to help kids learn to read. “The kids were very curious. They asked me a ton of questions and it was actually pretty fun to answer them. And the kids’ eyes would get really big when they heard that could do all of these things.”
8.What do we know about Dentler’s disease
A. It made her body straight enough to walk
B. It made her receive many surgeries to walk easily.
C. It made her need extra support to walk.
D. It made her be adopted by an American at the age of three.
9.Why couldn’t Dentler take the bus to school like her sisters
A. Because she was too young to get on the bus.
B. Because she couldn’t get on the bus with her legs.
C. Because her sisters didn’t like the disabled.
D. Because she wasn’t allowed to take the bus.
10.What can we learn from Paragraph 5
A. Dentler was the second female wheelchair athlete to finish the Ironman.
B. Dentler made up her mind to finish her first Ironman.
C. Dentler made great efforts to complete her second Ironman.
D. Dentler finished her first Ironman only with her arms.
11.Which of the following can best describe Dentler
A. Strict but caring. B. Proud but patient. C. Tough and generous. D. Persistent and caring.
As summer temperatures around the country rise, many consumers are seeing their energy bills go up rapidly. The average monthly energy bill in the U. S. was $121 in 2021, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
Consumers can keep their homes cooler by using curtains or blinds and keeping them closed during the sunniest part of the day. Turing up the temperature on air conditioners by 7℃ to 10℃ for at least eight hours a day can save as much as 10% from yearly energy costs, Energy. gov reports.
Besides, a smart thermostat (恒温器) can adjust temperature and help to reduce energy bills. A smart thermostat uses Wi-Fi to connect with an app on the owner’s phone. Some models even know when the user’s phone leaves the house and adjusts the heating or cooling accordingly.
“You can raise or lower the temperature when you’re not home, so you’re not using energy in the house when you’re not going to be around to benefit from it,” says Sara Rathner, a personal finance expert. “You can also control your heating and cooling systems from wherever you are, as long as you have your phone on you.” Not all home heating and cooling systems are suitable for smart home thermostats, though. Most thermostats work best with forced air-type systems, so they won’t work with radiant (辐射的) heating systems.
Prices for smart home thermostats start at about $100 and go up from there, while a more traditional thermostat can be purchased for under $30. Rathner suggests looking for seasonal savings like Black Friday deals. Some energy providers offer discounts on new smart thermostats, too. Energy. gov has a rebate (折扣) tool to help consumers find rebates in their own state. Other high-tech devices like smart lights connected to a smart home assistant can also enable consumers to reduce unnecessary use of electricity and cut power to those that continue to draw energy even when not in use.
12.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Homes. B. Consumers. C. Air conditioners. D. Curtains and blinds.
13.What can be learnt from the fourth paragraph
A. It’s unnecessary to lower the temperature.
B. It’s easy to fix a smart heating and cooling system.
C. It’s essential to build a smart home with a smart phone.
D. It’s beyond imagination to control a home’s temperature.
14.Why is Black Friday mentioned in the last paragraph
A. People can buy things with lower prices on that day.
B. Some high-tech devices are only offered on that day.
C. Energy, gov offers discounts on smart lights.
D. Most modern and traditional devices are priced below $30.
15.What is the text mainly about
A. A smart thermostat can help save energy bills.
B. A smart device can lower the temperature.
C. How to operate a smart thermostat in your house.
D. The best way to keep your home cooler.

解析:①考查名词。句意:随着经济的发展,如何平衡发展与文化遗产的保护是一个巨大的挑战。分析成分可知,空处为名词形式。单词“development”,名词,意为“发展”。构成固定搭配:with the development of,意为“随着……的发展”。故填development。
②考查连词。句意:随着经济的发展,如何平衡发展与文化遗产的保护是一个巨大的挑战。空前“progress”和空后“the protection”之间为并列关系。单词“and”,连词,意为“和”,符合句意。故填and。

⑦考查谓语动词。句意:很快就成立了一个国际委员会来帮助埃及找到解决办法。分析句子成分可知,空处为本句的复合谓语;动词“established”,意为“建立、成立”和空前的was一起构成本句谓语,和主语之间存在被动关系,符合句意。故填established。
⑧考查副词。句意:最后,他们决定把所有的文物都移走。分析句子成分可知,空处为本句状语。副词“finally”,意为“最后”,符合句意。故填Finally。

③考查动词时态和主谓一致。主语More than 45 percent of those athletes为复数,且这里叙述的是过去发生的事情,故用一般过去时。
④考查非谓语动词。这里用动词的现在分词作伴随状语。
