A
With such a strong artistic heritage, it’s no surprise that England knocks it out of the park when it comes to world-class art galleries. These are the galleries you need to add to your must-visit list.
Royal Academy of Arts (RA), London
Not your standard gallery, the Royal Academy of Arts is led by artists to promote not just the appreciation of art, but its practice. It is world-famous for hosting some exhibitions that get everyone talking. Besides, what sets the RA apart is its engagement with the public through participatory experiences, allowing visitors to not only view art but become part of it in innovative ways.
Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Norwich
Sitting on the edge of the University of East Anglia’s campus, the Sainsbury Centre holds a collection of remarkable works of art spanning over 2,000 years. Inside the seminal Norman Foster building, you’ll find artworks from around the world, including some stunning pieces of European modern art by Degas, Francis Bacon, and Alberto Giacometti.
Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Yorkshire
Tearing up the rulebook when it comes to how we traditionally view art, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park strives to break down barriers by showing works from British and international artists in the open air. Set in hundreds of acres of West Yorkshire parkland, you’ll see sculptures by some of the leading artists of the 20th century.
Whitworth, Manchester
After a sky-high 15 million development, the Whitworth is becoming one of the premier galleries in the north of England. Making full use of its picturesque park setting, the gallery has a beautiful art garden and a sculpture terrace (露台), all waiting to be explored. Inside the gallery, you can view an exciting programme of ever-changing exhibitions.
1. What is special about the Royal Academy of Arts
A. It offers interactive experiences.
B. It displays works by senior artists.
C. It occupies a vast space in the museum.
D. It stages exhibitions in a traditional way.
2. What do Yorkshire Sculpture Park and Whitworth have in common
A. They are small in scale. B. They offer outdoor settings.
C. They feature long-standing works. D. They host exhibitions on an annual basis.
3. Where is the text probably taken from
A. An art textbook. B. An art student’s paper.
C. A personal travel blog. D. A travel guidebook.
B
Josefa Marin went to New York from Mexico in 1987, supporting her daughter back home with the $140 a week she earned at a sweater factory. With that small income, she had to collect recyclables, trading in cans for five cents each.
When the clothing factory closed down in the late 2000s, she became a full-time recycler, picking up cans and bottles to make ends meet.
Marin’s story is not unique. Millions around the world make a living from picking through waste and reselling it — a vital role that keeps waste manageable. In New York City, the administrative department collects only about 28 percent of the cans that could be recycled. Rubbish collectors, however, keep millions of additional recyclables out of landfills every year.
Yet collectors are ruled out by government policies. The United States Supreme Court in 1988 stated that household garbage is public property once it’s on the street. That enables police to search rubbish for evidence, but that protection hasn’t always been extended to recyclers. And in places like New York City, which is testing city-owned locked containers to hide garbage from rats, containers are made clearly inaccessible for collectors.
“There’s value in the waste, and we feel that value should belong to the people, not the city or the corporations”, says Ryan Castalia, director of a nonprofit recycling and community center in Brooklyn.
Recognized or not, waste pickers have long been treated with disrespect. Marin recalls an occasion when someone living next to a building where she was collecting cans threw water at her. “Because I recycle doesn’t mean I am less of a person than anyone else,” she says. It’s a pity to see that the government doesn’t stand by the garbage collector’s side, either.
Fortunately, some governments are starting to realize that protecting the environment and humanity go hand in hand. Brazil classified waste picking as an official occupation in 2001. In 2009, Colombia’s government granted the right to collect valuable garbage. The U.S. is slowly catching on too. After all, to the government, the garbage is garbage, but to the collectors, it’s something they make a living on.
4. What is the author’s purpose of telling about Marin
A. To highlight waste collectors’ role.
B. To reflect the unemployed’s hardship.
C. To praise her devotion to her daughter.
D. To show the seriousness of unemployment.
5. How does the author show the importance of waste pickers’ work in paragraph 3
A. By citing reference. B. By contrasting.
C. By giving definitions. D. By cause-effect analysis.
6. What would Marin agree with
A. No job is noble or humble. B. Business is business.
C. The early birds catches worms. D. One good turn deserves another.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Who owns our garbage B. How can we end poverty
C. Who takes blame for waste D. How should we recycle rubbish
C
Eating insects is one of those ideas that never quite seem to catch on. The United Nations spread the idea a decade ago, but, in the West at least, insects remain mostly absent from supermarket shelves. Faced with an unsatisfied public, scientists have been exploring other options. One is to feed the insects instead to farm animals, which are not so picky.
Of course, the insects need to eat, too. To date, they have mostly reared (饲养) on leftover chicken feed. But the supply of that is limited, and if insect-reared meat is to take off, new sources will be needed. Niels Eriksen, a biochemist at Aalborg University, suggests feeding them on the waste products of the beer industry.
The world knocks back around 185bn litres of beer every year. Each litre produces between three and ten litres of wastewater full of thrown-away grains. The mix is rich in protein but lacking in carbohydrates (碳水化合物), especially compared with chicken feed.
Most insects grown for feed depend, in the wild, on the carbohydrates found in bad fruit. Whether insects would actually consider beer waste a square meal was, therefore, unclear.
The researchers used the baby insects of the black soldier fly. The young insects were divided into three groups, which were offered beer waste, chicken feed or a mixture of both. The researchers monitored both their weight gain and the amount of CO, they produced. They found the baby insects happily consumed both beer waste and chicken feed, and grew equally well on either food source. Dr Eriksen found few differences in how nutritious the insects would be to farm animals.
The experiment may have implications beyond the beer business, too. Bone meal from farms, and waste from other food industries are all likewise plentiful and protein-rich.
All now look to be reasonable targets for nutrient recycling by insects. Whether consumers will be willing to eat insect-reared beef, though, remains to be seen.
8. What is the purpose of Niels Eriksen’s research
A To find alternatives to chicken feed.
B. To recycle the wastewater in beer industry.
C. To change public’s attitude toward insects.
D. To reduce the consumption of waste products.
9. What is paragraph 6 mainly about
A. The future application of the research. B. The importance of protein in the cycle.
C. The extended influence of the research. D. The contribution of the beer industry.
10. What is the possible food chain described in the article
A. chickens-insects-cows-humans B. humans-beer waste-insects-cows
C. beer waste-insects-cows-humans D. cows-chickens-insects-beer waste
11. What can be a suitable title of the article
A. Waste recycling will be taking off soon
B. Eating insects is the new option for people
C. Insects could help turn beer waste into beef
D. Insects could gain popularity in supermarket
D
Forests absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) from Earth’s atmosphere, which makes them a key part of easing climate change. But humans may have already made the world’s largest rainforest useless in—and perhaps even detrimental to—the battle against greenhouse gases, a new study finds.
According to the study, the carbon balance of the Amazon rainforest is damaged largely due to large-scale (大规模的) human disturbance to the Amazon ecosystem, with wildfires—many deliberately set to clear land for agriculture and industry—responsible for most of the CO2 emissions (排放量) from the region and the hotter dry seasons.
“The first very bad news is that forest burning produces around three times more CO2 than the forest absorbs,” lead author of the study Luciana Gatti said. “The second bad news is that the places where deforestation is 30 percent or more show carbon emissions 10 times higher than the places where less than 20 percent of forest is destroyed.”
In the new study, the researchers analyzed nearly 600 measurements of CO2 and CO concentration at four spots in the Brazilian Amazon collected from 2010 to 2018. The team found that, on average, fires poured about 1.6 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year, while healthy trees absorbed only about half a billion tons. The team also found that, while the Eastern Amazon, which has seen historically greater amounts of deforestation over the past 40 years, has become a place where carbon emissions are from, the Western Amazon, which has seen much less deforestation, is neither a carbon “producer” nor a carbon sink. There, CO2 absorption by healthy forests balances the emissions from fires.
The Amazon Basin contains about 2.8 million square miles of jungle, representing more than half of the tropical (热带的) rainforest area remaining on Earth. “Limiting deforestation, and especially wildfires, is key to changing this dangerous trend in the Amazon. Imagine if we could keep the Amazon from fires, the forest could be a carbon sink,” Gatti said. “But we are doing the opposite—we are accelerating climate change.”
12. What does the underlined word “detrimental” mean in paragraph 1
A. Harmful. B. Sensitive.
C. Responsible. D. Ineffective.
13. Which is the major cause of the Amazon’s carbon imbalance
A. Climate change. B. Industrial development.
C. Human activity. D. Natural wildfires.
14. What did the researchers discover in their study
A. The Eastern Amazon is relatively better-preserved.
B. The Amazon witnessed more fires from 2010 to 2018.
C. The majority of forest fires resulted from deforestation.
D. The Amazon rainforest creates more CO2 than it absorbs.
15. What does Gatti imply at the end of the text
A. More forests should have been protected.
B. The Amazon rainforest is shrinking rapidly.
C People should greatly reduce their carbon footprint.
D. Preventing fires helps improve the Amazon’s condition.

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。
From the day Tony was born, Jeff refused to let his son’s disabilities hold him back. Tony has cerebral palsy (脑瘫), making it difficult for him to walk. Determined to show Tony that he could pursue his dream of being an athlete, when he was 15 years old, Jeff signed him up with Team Triumph, an organization that helps kids with disabilities engage in endurance sports.
“It gave me a new perspective on life, Tony said. He even dreamed of walking marathon one day. From then on, Tony became addicted to racing, and Jeff also wanted to be a part of it. Though Jeff had been a minor league baseball player, endurance (耐力) sports were new to him. He made up his mind to achieve Tony’s dream and started doing things he never dreamed about. He began waking up at 4 a. m. So he could run in the silent street while pushing Tony in a special wheelchair called a racing chair. Every morning, he drove himself to run increasingly longer distances. Soon, he and Tony were entering 5K races, then on to Iron-man triathlons.
Finishing the Iron-man competition in under 16 hours would be another dream for Jeff and Tony. The big day came. The race began with a 2.4-mile swim in the river. Jeff helped Tony into a kayak (皮船). With one end of a rope tied to a belt around his back and the other end to the kayak, Jeff eased himself into the water. Swimming while dragging another person is quite tough. The pair completed the swim in 90 minutes, and then it was on to the next leg; a 112-mile bicycle ride. Their custom-built bike had an additional seat in the back for Tony that faced backward.
After completing the demanding bike part in roughly nine hours, they set their sights on the final leg of the race-a 26.2-mile marathon with Jeff pushing Tony in the racing chair. They’d been competing for 10 hours, with only 6 hours left for the race. The first 7 miles went smoothly.
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。
But at mile 19, Jeff began to worry they were going too slow.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Jeff handed Tony his rolling walker (助行器).

【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章以Josefa Marin经历为例,介绍了拾荒者的生存现状和挑战,他们依靠收集可回收物品来维持生计,在垃圾管理中扮演着重要的角色,但长期以来一直受到歧视和排斥,而且垃圾的归属一直以来也受到争议。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Marin’s story is not unique. Millions around the world make a living from picking through waste and reselling it—a vital role that keeps waste manageable. (Marin的故事并非个例。世界上有数百万人靠捡垃圾和倒卖为生——这是垃圾管理的一个重要角色)”可推知,作者讲述Marin的故事是为了突出她的角色——拾荒者的重要作用。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Millions around the world make a living from picking through waste and reselling it—a vital role that keeps waste manageable. In New York City, the administrative department collects only about 28 percent of the cans that could be recycled. Rubbish collectors, however, keep millions of additional recyclables out of landfills every year. (世界上有数百万人靠捡垃圾和倒卖为生——这是垃圾管理的一个重要角色。在纽约市,管理部门只收集了28%可以回收的易拉罐。然而,垃圾收集者每年将数百万件额外的可回收物从垃圾填埋场中清除出来)”可知,作者通过对比说明了拾荒者的重要性。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Marin recalls an occasion when someone living next to a building where she was collecting cans threw water at her. “Because I recycle doesn’t mean I am less of a person than anyone else,” she says. (Marin回忆说,有一次,她正在收集罐头,隔壁的人向她泼水。她说:“因为我回收利用并不意味着我比其他人更不像一个人。”)”可知,Marin认为自己作为人的身份和尊严不受自己从事的拾荒工作而发生改变。因此,她会赞同“工作没有高低贵贱之分”的观点。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第四段中“The United States Supreme Court in 1988 stated that household garbage is public property once it’s on the street. That enables police to search rubbish for evidence, but that protection hasn’t always been extended to recyclers. And in places like New York City, which is testing city-owned locked containers to hide garbage from rats, containers are made clearly inaccessible for collectors. (1988年,美国最高法院声明,生活垃圾一旦被扔到街上,就是公共财产。这使得警察能够在垃圾中寻找证据,但这种保护并不总是延伸到回收者。在纽约市这样的地方,正在测试城市拥有的上锁容器,以防止老鼠进入垃圾,这些容器显然不能让收集者进入)”以及第五段“‘There’s value in the waste, and we feel that value should belong to the people, not the city or the corporations’, says Ryan Castalia, director of a nonprofit recycling and community center in Brooklyn. (布鲁克林一家非营利性回收和社区中心的主管Ryan Castalia说:“垃圾中有价值,我们觉得价值应该属于人民,而不是城市或公司。”)”可知,文章围绕拾荒者这一话题展开,以Josefa Marin的经历为例,介绍了拾荒者的生存现状和挑战,并探讨了一直以来受到争议的垃圾归属的问题。因此,A项“谁拥有我们的垃圾?”最契合文章内容,适合作为本文标题。故选A。

Eating insects is one of those ideas that never quite seem to catch on. The United Nations spread the idea a decade ago, but, in the West at least, insects remain mostly absent from supermarket shelves. Faced with an unsatisfied public, scientists have been exploring other options. One is to feed the insects instead to farm animals, which are not so picky.
Of course, the insects need to eat, too. To date, they have mostly reared (饲养) on leftover chicken feed. But the supply of that is limited, and if insect-reared meat is to take off, new sources will be needed. Niels Eriksen, a biochemist at Aalborg University, suggests feeding them on the waste products of the beer industry.
The world knocks back around 185bn litres of beer every year. Each litre produces between three and ten litres of wastewater full of thrown-away grains. The mix is rich in protein but lacking in carbohydrates (碳水化合物), especially compared with chicken feed.
Most insects grown for feed depend, in the wild, on the carbohydrates found in bad fruit. Whether insects would actually consider beer waste a square meal was, therefore, unclear.
The researchers used the baby insects of the black soldier fly. The young insects were divided into three groups, which were offered beer waste, chicken feed or a mixture of both. The researchers monitored both their weight gain and the amount of CO, they produced. They found the baby insects happily consumed both beer waste and chicken feed, and grew equally well on either food source. Dr Eriksen found few differences in how nutritious the insects would be to farm animals.
The experiment may have implications beyond the beer business, too. Bone meal from farms, and waste from other food industries are all likewise plentiful and protein-rich.
All now look to be reasonable targets for nutrient recycling by insects. Whether consumers will be willing to eat insect-reared beef, though, remains to be seen.
8. What is the purpose of Niels Eriksen’s research
A. To find alternatives to chicken feed.
B. To recycle the wastewater in beer industry.
C To change public’s attitude toward insects.
D. To reduce the consumption of waste products.
9. What is paragraph 6 mainly about
A. The future application of the research. B. The importance of protein in the cycle.
C. The extended influence of the research. D. The contribution of the beer industry.
10. What is the possible food chain described in the article
A. chickens-insects-cows-humans B. humans-beer waste-insects-cows
C. beer waste-insects-cows-humans D. cows-chickens-insects-beer waste
11. What can be a suitable title of the article
A. Waste recycling will be taking off soon
B. Eating insects is the new option for people
C. Insects could help turn beer waste into beef
D. Insects could gain popularity in supermarket
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. C

【导语】本文是说明文。文中主要讲述了科学家建议用啤酒废料喂养昆虫,然后将昆虫用来喂养牛。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“But the supply of that is limited, and if insect-reared meat is to take off, new sources will be needed. Niels Eriksen, a biochemist at Aalborg University, suggests feeding them on the waste products of the beer industry. (但这种肉的供应是有限的,如果昆虫饲养的肉要大量增加,就需要新的来源。奥尔堡大学的生物化学家尼尔斯·埃里克森建议用啤酒工业的废品喂养它们。)”可知,Niels Eriksen的研究是为了寻找鸡饲料的替代品。故选A。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段“The experiment may have implications beyond the beer business, too. Bone meal from farms, and waste from other food industries are all likewise plentiful and protein-rich. (该实验的影响也可能超出啤酒行业。来自农场的骨粉和其他食品工业的废物同样丰富且富含蛋白质。)”可知,第六段主要介绍了该研究对其他行业的影响,即该研究所延伸的影响,故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“if insect-reared meat is to take off, new sources will be needed. Niels Eriksen, a biochemist at Aalborg University, suggests feeding them on the waste products of the beer industry. (如果昆虫饲养的肉要大量增加,就需要新的来源。奥尔堡大学的生物化学家尼尔斯·埃里克森建议用啤酒工业的废品喂养它们。)”可知,昆虫吃啤废料,和最后一段中“Whether consumers will be willing to eat insect-reared beef, though, remains to be seen. (不过,消费者是否愿意吃昆虫饲养的牛肉还有待观察。)”可知,吃啤酒废料的昆虫被用来饲养牛,而人类吃牛肉,由此可知,文章中描述的可能的食物链是:啤酒废料——昆虫——牛——人类,故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“Faced with an unsatisfied public, scientists have been exploring other options. One is to feed the insects instead to farm animals, which are not so picky. (面对不满意的公众,科学家们一直在探索其他选择。一种是将昆虫喂给不那么挑剔的农场动物。)”和第二段中“Niels Eriksen, a biochemist at Aalborg University, suggests feeding them on the waste products of the beer industry. (奥尔堡大学的生物化学家尼尔斯·埃里克森建议用啤酒工业的废品喂养它们。)”可知,文章主要讲述了科学家建议用啤酒废料喂养昆虫,然后将昆虫用来喂养牛,由此可知,C项“昆虫可以帮助将啤酒废物转化为牛肉”适合做文章标题,故选C。

Forests absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) from Earth’s atmosphere, which makes them a key part of easing climate change. But humans may have already made the world’s largest rainforest useless in—and perhaps even detrimental to—the battle against greenhouse gases, a new study finds.
According to the study, the carbon balance of the Amazon rainforest is damaged largely due to large-scale (大规模的) human disturbance to the Amazon ecosystem, with wildfires—many deliberately set to clear land for agriculture and industry—responsible for most of the CO2 emissions (排放量) from the region and the hotter dry seasons.
“The first very bad news is that forest burning produces around three times more CO2 than the forest absorbs,” lead author of the study Luciana Gatti said. “The second bad news is that the places where deforestation is 30 percent or more show carbon emissions 10 times higher than the places where less than 20 percent of forest is destroyed.”
In the new study, the researchers analyzed nearly 600 measurements of CO2 and CO concentration at four spots in the Brazilian Amazon collected from 2010 to 2018. The team found that, on average, fires poured about 1.6 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year, while healthy trees absorbed only about half a billion tons. The team also found that, while the Eastern Amazon, which has seen historically greater amounts of deforestation over the past 40 years, has become a place where carbon emissions are from, the Western Amazon, which has seen much less deforestation, is neither a carbon “producer” nor a carbon sink. There, CO2 absorption by healthy forests balances the emissions from fires.
The Amazon Basin contains about 2.8 million square miles of jungle, representing more than half of the tropical (热带的) rainforest area remaining on Earth. “Limiting deforestation, and especially wildfires, is key to changing this dangerous trend in the Amazon. Imagine if we could keep the Amazon from fires, the forest could be a carbon sink,” Gatti said. “But we are doing the opposite—we are accelerating climate change.”
12. What does the underlined word “detrimental” mean in paragraph 1
A. Harmful. B. Sensitive.
C. Responsible. D. Ineffective.
13. Which is the major cause of the Amazon’s carbon imbalance
A. Climate change. B. Industrial development.
C. Human activity. D. Natural wildfires.
14. What did the researchers discover in their study
A. The Eastern Amazon is relatively better-preserved.
B. The Amazon witnessed more fires from 2010 to 2018.
C. The majority of forest fires resulted from deforestation.
D. The Amazon rainforest creates more CO2 than it absorbs.
15. What does Gatti imply at the end of the text
A. More forests should have been protected.
B. The Amazon rainforest is shrinking rapidly.
C. People should greatly reduce their carbon footprint.
D. Preventing fires helps improve the Amazon’s condition.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是最新研究表明,由于毁林,亚马孙雨林的碳排放总量已经超过碳吸收总量。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段的“humans may have already made the world’s largest rainforest useless(人类可能已经让世界上最大的雨林变得毫无用处)”和“the battle against greenhouse gases(对抗温室气体)”可知,画线词所在句表示“但一项新的研究发现,人类可能已经使世界上最大的雨林在对抗温室气体的斗争中变得无用,甚至有害”,画线词的含义应是“有害的,不利的”,和harmful意思相近。故选A。
13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the carbon balance of the Amazon rainforest is damaged largely due to large-scale (大规模的) human disturbance to the Amazon ecosystem(由于人类对亚马逊生态系统的大规模干扰,亚马孙雨林的碳平衡受到很大破坏)”可知,亚马孙雨林的碳失衡主要是由大规模人类活动造成的,故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The first very bad news is that forest burning produces around three times more CO2 than the forest absorbs(第一个非常坏的消息是,森林燃烧产生的二氧化碳是森林吸收二氧化碳的三倍)”可知,研究者在他们的研究中发现亚马孙雨林排放的二氧化碳比其吸收的二氧化碳要多。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Limiting deforestation, and especially wildfires, is key to changing this dangerous trend in the Amazon. Imagine if we could keep the Amazon from fires, the forest could be a carbon sink(限制森林砍伐,特别是野火,是改变亚马孙地区这一危险趋势的关键。想象一下,如果我们能让亚马孙雨林远离火灾,森林就能成为碳汇)”可知,Gatti在文章的结尾暗示预防火灾有助于改善亚马孙的状况。故选D。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
From the day Tony was born, Jeff refused to let his son’s disabilities hold him back. Tony has cerebral palsy (脑瘫), making it difficult for him to walk. Determined to show Tony that he could pursue his dream of being an athlete, when he was 15 years old, Jeff signed him up with Team Triumph, an organization that helps kids with disabilities engage in endurance sports.
“It gave me a new perspective on life, Tony said. He even dreamed of walking marathon one day. From then on, Tony became addicted to racing, and Jeff also wanted to be a part of it. Though Jeff had been a minor league baseball player, endurance (耐力) sports were new to him. He made up his mind to achieve Tony’s dream and started doing things he never dreamed about. He began waking up at 4 a. m. So he could run in the silent street while pushing Tony in a special wheelchair called a racing chair. Every morning, he drove himself to run increasingly longer distances. Soon, he and Tony were entering 5K races, then on to Iron-man triathlons.
Finishing the Iron-man competition in under 16 hours would be another dream for Jeff and Tony. The big day came. The race began with a 2.4-mile swim in the river. Jeff helped Tony into a kayak (皮船). With one end of a rope tied to a belt around his back and the other end to the kayak, Jeff eased himself into the water. Swimming while dragging another person is quite tough. The pair completed the swim in 90 minutes, and then it was on to the next leg; a 112-mile bicycle ride. Their custom-built bike had an additional seat in the back for Tony that faced backward.
After completing the demanding bike part in roughly nine hours, they set their sights on the final leg of the race-a 26.2-mile marathon with Jeff pushing Tony in the racing chair. They’d been competing for 10 hours, with only 6 hours left for the race. The first 7 miles went smoothly.

【答案】
But at mile 19, Jeff began to worry they were going too slow. Somehow he found the energy to pick up the pace. With Tony’s dream deeply imprinted in his mind, he realized he was not alone in this battle. Clenching his teeth, Jeff used all his strength and will power to push the racing chair. The audience can’t help cheering for them. With thunderous applause, they were close to the finishing line. Jeff knew it was time to fulfil Tony’s wish.
Jeff handed Tony his rolling walker (助行器). Not that long ago, Tony could barely walk several steps. But after years of painstaking work, he increased his step count and was determined to finish the race on his own. After 15 hours and 5 minutes with just five minutes to spare father and son crossed the fish line together. As the crowd engulfed and cheered on an overwhelmed Tony, a weary Jeff kept a low profile. “He didn’t want his finish line moment,” says Tony. “He wanted it to be mine.”
