The 61-year-old potato farmer Cliff Young won the 1983 Westfield Sydney-Melbourne Ultramarathon, which took runners days to finish, in Australia.
When Cliff showed up in the race, he stuck out like a sore thumb in his everyday clothes different from the other professional runners’, quickly attracting the attention of reporters present.
“I grew up on a farm where we couldn’t afford horses. Whenever the storms would roll in, I’d have to go out and round up the sheep,” Cliff told reporters. “Sometimes I’d have to run those sheep for two or three days, but I’d always catch them. I believe I can run this race.” No one actually believed him. Most competitors were in their 20s and early 30s, with years of training and marathon experience.
On the first day of the race, Cliff was left far behind. But he had one advantage that no one had expected. He didn’t plan on stopping until he reached the finish line while all the others had been training to run for 18 hours a day and then stop and sleep for the other six.
When dawn broke, the other runners were shocked to learn that the old farmer was in the lead and that they would have to catch up with him. Although running slowly, he was the first to cross the finish line and received $10,000 as a prize. But he kept none of the prize and donated it to the homeless.
Cliff continued to run. In 1997, he set out to raise funds for homeless kids by running all 16, 000 kilometers of the Australian coastline. In 2000, Cliff achieved a world age record in a six-day race in Victoria. Cliff Young died at 81, but his legend lives on.
24.What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean
A.He was very noticeable. B.He suffered a hand injury.
C.He seemed nervous. D.He had a special thumb.
25.What was people’s attitude toward Cliff’s confidence
A.Disappointed. B.Respectful. C.Doubtful. D.Curious.
26.What did Cliff Young do with the race
A.He saved his energy at first. B.He received good training.
C.He sped up in the last two days. D.He continuously ran without sleep.
27.What keeps Cliff Young’s legend on
A.Imagination and generosity. B.Dream and devotion.
C.Determination and kindness. D.Willingness and wisdom.

Meat, milk, cheese — just some of the things provided by goats. But now we can also add fire safety to this list. As wildfires damage increasingly large areas of the planet each year, goatherds (牧羊人) may offer a way of reducing the risk.
Wildfires are made possible by hot, dry weather conditions as well as a supply of dead plants that serve as fuel. We may have limited control over the former factor, but we can control the latter. Reducing the fuel load lowers the possibility of wildfires occurring, as well as the amount of damage caused. This is where we can turn to goats to search for a solution, which are being used for landscape management in a number of places around the world, including Greece, Spain, Portugal, Chile and a number of parts of the United States.
Goats have an extremely powerful digestive (消化的) system. Many kinds of plants that are dangerous to other animals can be easily eaten by goats. It’s not just fully-grown plants that goats are able to deal with: any seeds that pass through a goat can’t survive and will not grow. Human clearance teams have to worry about getting to the hard-to-reach places where plants grow but goats don’t. They are skilled mountain climbers and when standing on their hind legs, they can reach up to two metres to the plants that humans would struggle to reach. Because of this, using goats can reduce both the possibility of workplace accidents and the amount of money spent on fire protection measures. Goatherds have been found to clear some parts of land for a third of the price of human control teams.
Cost and safety aren’t the only benefits. Goats are quieter than grass-cutting machines and people usually prefer to see goats eating grass rather than litres of herbicide (除草剂). Children are often attracted to see the goats at work and this provides an opportunity to educate people about preventing wildfires.
28.Why can goats help to prevent wildfires
A.They are not afraid of bad weather. B.They are easily controlled by goatherds.
C.They have the strongest digestive system. D.They can remove dead plants causing fire.
29.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.The fire protection measures that people often take.
B.The reasons why goats are used to prevent wildfires.
C.The difficulty human clearance teams have preventing fire.
D.The effects goats have on the natural balance of mountains.
30.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Herbicide will not be used to remove grass soon.
B.Children like goats because of their quiet character.
C.It’s a green way to prevent wildfires by using goats.
D.Herbicide works better than grass-cutting machines.
31.Which can be a suitable title for the text
A.Firefighting Goats. B.Clever Goatherds.
C.Damage Caused by Wildfires. D.Ways to Prevent Disasters.
D
Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s.
The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years. One group of 147 people practised regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not. The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved.
Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study”—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are impressive — but said there were limitations in its design, and more tests were needed.
“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,” he said.
32.Why was the study conducted
A.To find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.
B.To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson’s patients.
C.To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies.
D.To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson’s.
33.Which of the following is not the researchers’ finding
A.Concentration problem was lower in the Tai Chi group.
B.The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group.
C.Patients in the non-Tai Chi group continuously fell down.
D.Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi group.
34.What can we learn from Prof. Alastair Noyce’s words
A.Tai Chi should be given more preference.
B.Finding the most beneficial exercise is of importance.
C.It is unnecessary to do more related studies.
D.Improve the long-term management of patients is impossible.
35.What is Prof. Alastair Noyce’s attitude towards the study
A.Confused. B.Doubtful. C.Positive. D.Worried.

She couldn’t help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she gave a sigh and had to leave. The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles ” “Oh, yes, but I don’t have money on me.” she replied.
“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently. “What is it ” asked the man kindly. “Nothing. Actually, I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!” Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you Have you expressed your gratitude to her ” Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock: she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why didn’t I think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted. Why haven’t I thanked my mum for what she has done for me ” On the way home. Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

As wildfires damage increasingly large areas of the planet each year, goatherds(牧羊人) may offer a way of reducing the risk.(肉、奶、奶酪——这些都是山羊提供的东西。但现在我们还可以在这个列表中加上消防安全。随着野火每年对地球造成越来越大的破坏,牧羊人可能提供了一种降低风险的方法)”结合文章主要说明了人们利用山羊来清除引起火灾的枯死植物,从而预防野火。可知,A选项“消防山羊”最符合文章标题。故选A。

32.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Recently, the researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s.(最近,研究人员表示,每周练习两次太极的人比不练习的人并发症更少,生活质量更好。专家表示,这些发现支持了之前关于运动对帕金森氏症患者益处的研究。)”和第二段中的“The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years.(这项来自上海交通大学医学院的研究对数百名帕金森病患者的健康状况进行了长达五年的监测。)”可推测出,进行这项研究是为了研究太极拳对那些患有帕金森氏病的人产生的好处。故选D。
33.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. (研究人员发现,从症状、动作和平衡的测量结果来看,太极拳组的病情进展较慢。这一组的跌倒次数更少,背痛和头晕次数更少,记忆力和注意力问题也低于另一组。)”可知,太极拳组的病情进展较慢,跌倒、背痛、头晕次数更少,记忆力和注意力问题也较低,选项A、B、D均是研究发现,C项不符合题意。故选C。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段中他的话“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients(我们已经推荐太极拳和其他形式的运动,但了解哪些运动形式最有益是改善患者长期管理的重要目标)”可知,他认为了解哪些运动形式最有益是改善患者长期管理的重要目标,由此可推测出,找到最有益的锻炼方式是非常重要的。故选B。
35.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology at Queen Mary University of London, called it ‘an important study’—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are impressive(伦敦玛丽女王大学神经病学和神经流行病学教授Alastair Noyce教授称这是‘一项重要的研究’——对运动功能和非运动功能的积极影响令人印象深刻)”可知,他认为这项研究是一项重要的研究,对运动功能和非运动功能的积极影响令人印象深刻,由此可推测出,他对这项研究持肯定态度。故选C。

67.Approaching the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath. When she pushed the door open and entered the house, she found her mother was not in. Tired and sad, she sunk down into the sofa. “ Where could my mother be ” she wondered. “Was she still angry with me ” Again, the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind. She remembered her rudeness to her mother. Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her, she felt rather ashamed, tears rolling down her cheeks.
A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face of her mother. “Here you come! I’ve been looking for you,” she said, fatigued but relieved. Jenny couldn’t help throwing herself into her mother’ arms. “Mum, I’m so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me.” she expressed her sincere apology and great gratitude. Hearing this, her mother smiled, patting her back gently. It dawned on Jenny that Mum’s love was invisible and intangible, but always surrounded us.
