You can’t imagine how terrible I felt at that time. A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first PE class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a soft ball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realised running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamed that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!”
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed
the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21, I was hungry!
As I got close to mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same me dal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels (世俗标签), I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.
24. A month before the marathon, the author __________.
A. lost hope B. felt scared C. was well trained D. made up his mind to run
25. Why did the author mention the PE class in his 7th year
A. To express the support of his teacher.
B. To show he was not good at sports.
C. To amuse the readers with a funny story.
D. To share a precious memory.
26. How was the author’s first marathon
A. He made it. B. He quitted halfway.
C. He got the first prize. D. He walked to the end.
27. What does the story mainly tell us
A. One is never too old to learn.
B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. A winner is one with a great effort of will.
D. A man owes his success to his family support.
C
It’s a hot time for Chinese language learning across the world, not only because of China’s higher status (地位) in the global community but also because of the increasing economic and cultural connections between China and other countries. As one of the latest countries to welcome Chinese language lecturers, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) plans to open Chinese language courses in 200 public primary and secondary schools; experienced Chinese teachers are eagerly needed.
Other Chinese courses opening across world show the increasing demand for Chinese-speaking talent. Russia included Mandarin (普通话) as an elective foreign language in the country’s college entrance exam. Following English German, French, and Spanish, Mandarin has become the fifth elective test item for the exam, according to Sergey Kravtsov, Deputy Minister of Russia’s Ministry of Education and Science.
Spain, for example, has more than 40,000 people learning Chinese; last year some 8,000 took the Chinese Proficiency Test (HSK) exam, ranking first among the member states of the European Union, according to Xinhua News Agency.
In the US, learning Chinese has been thriving for a number of years and is now a popular choice for American children, especially those who born in elite (精英) families. The children are exposed to the language at an early age as their parents believe mastering Chinese will help them build successful international careers.
28. What makes Chinese language learning so hot now
A. China has the highest international position.
B. Many countries depend on China to develop.
C Many countries want to adopt China’s culture.
D. China has more international influence globally.
29. What can we know about Chinese learning in Europe
A. Chinese is always an elective foreign language in Russia.
B. There are 200 public primary schools offering Chinese courses in Russia.
C. A Chinese teacher can earn $4,500 a month in Spain.
D. One fifth of students learning Chinese took the HSK in Spain last year.

31. How many foreign countries are mentioned in the passage
A. 3 B. 4 C. 8 D. 9
D
In the mid1990s, Tom Bissell taught English as a volunteer in Uzbekistan. He left after seven months, physically broken and having lost his mind. A few years later, still attracted to the country, he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea.
His visit, however, ended up involving a lot more than that. Hence this book, Chasing the Sea: Lost Among the Ghosts of Empire in Central Asia, which talks about a road trip from Tashkent to Karakalpakstan, where millions of lives have been destroyed by the slow drying up of the sea. It is the story of an American travelling to a strange land, and of the people he meets on his way: Rustam, his translator, a lovely 24yearold who picked up his colorful English in California, Oleg and Natasha, his hosts in Tashkent, and a string of foreign aid workers.
This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan, made of friendliness and warmth, but also its darker side of society. In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders, while on his way to Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends a mountain funeral(葬礼) followed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is saddened by the dust storms, diseases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea.
Mr Bissell skillfully organizes historical insights and cultural references, making his tale a wellrounded picture of Uzbekistan, seen from Western eyes. His judgment and references are decidedly American, as well as his delicate stomach. As the author explains, this is neither a travel nor a history book, or even a piece of reportage. Whatever it is, the result is a fine and vivid description of the purest of Central Asian traditions.
32．What made Mr Bissell return to Uzbekistan
A．His friends' invitation.
B．His interest in the country.
C．His love for teaching.
D．His desire to regain health.
33．What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．Developing a serious mental disease.
B．Taking a guided tour in Central Asia.
C．Working as a volunteer in Uzbekistan.
D．Writing an article about the Aral Sea.
34．Which of the following best describes Mr Bissell's road trip in Uzbekistan
A．Romantic. B．Eventful.
C．Pleasant. D．Dangerous.
35．What is the purpose of this text
A．To introduce a book.
B．To explain a cultural phenomenon.
C．To remember a writer.
D．To recommend a travel destination.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)

People spend too much time and effort trying to control anxiety these days.Here are some things you can do to help minimize anxiety's negative effects.
__36__ If you treat anxiety as part of life and part of everyone's living experience, you can learn to relate it with selfcompassion and even with humor.This is a cornerstone of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which has been gaining clinical validation.
ACT guides people to see their unpleasant emotions as just feelings and accept that parts of life are hard. Doctors encourage patients to begin a dialogue with anxious thoughts.__37__ Meanwhile, they also keep in mind patients' personal goals and values.Although anxious thoughts shouldn't be completely controlled, sufferers can be trained not to allow anxiety to turn them away from what they want to do and who they want to be.
Make lifestyle adjustments.__38__ This requires trial and error to get just right. While acceptance is the first and most important step, some lifestyle changes have been proved to take the edge off as well.
Work out regularly.When tiredness and stress leave you more exposed to anxiety, a wellbalanced diet and adequate rest are helpful.__39__ One research study shows that regular vigorous workouts reduce
the likelihood of developing an anxiety disorder over the next five years by 25 percent.
As a specialist, Arthur also shares her experiences on the website, openly discussing her anxiety has transformed her relationship with it.“I'm learning to live in harmony, as much as possible, with this thing that is part of me，” she says.“It's not always pleasant, but I accept it.__40__”
A．Accept it.
B．Develop a sense of humor.
C．I may be more anxious in the future.
D．To some extent, I can take care of my anxiety.
E．Above all, exercise can help you manage it better.
F．Learning to live with anxiety is an individual process.
G．They want to examine the causes of patients' feelings.

Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread.This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely.

But Jeff's hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. Jenna made him put his hand in cold water. Then she caught the smell of burning.Oh dear!
