When she was 61,Sian Davies decided to row across the Atlantic Ocean.In March 2021,she was one of the 12 crew members who set out on the 3,000-mile journey from Tenerife to battle sun,salt and fierce currents.“We would row in three-hour shifts and only sleep for an hour or so every six hours,” she says.“For the first 15 days,I was seasick,so I hardly ate anything.I was just rowing and collapsing.I went through some pretty dark times.”
But after 42 days on the water,Davies reached Antigua to become one of the only six women in the world over the age of 60 to have rowed across an ocean.“I was exhausted and I was also so proud of myself,” she says.
Davies began rowing when she was 53,after spotting a six-oar (桨) rowing boat in Bristol harbor.Attracted by its size and appearance,she spoke to the crew and was encouraged to do a trial run.“As soon as I got on the water,I fell in love with it,” she says.“Feeling your whole body working and the fresh air on your skin is amazing.”
It wasn't until 2017,though,that her Atlantic plans were born.Suffering from a herniated disc (椎间盘突出),she was only able to crawl out of bed.“I began thinking of things I could look forward to after I had surgery,” she says.“One day I was reading about women adventurers when it hit me that once better,I would row across an ocean.”
After successful surgery,Davies began driving to meet other women who had undertaken rows.Hearing the experiences and advice of them gave Davies the confidence.Soon after,she heard that a new boat producer was organizing a team for a voyage across the Atlantic and she joined it immediately.
“In June,I'm planning to break a few world records by rowing around the UK when I'm 64,and I want to motorcycle through the Himalayas later in the year.After all,we need things to look back on,” she says.

(2024·浙江湖州二模)
US Army veteran (退伍老兵) Mazyck remembers when doctors told her she would never walk again.She'd been paralyzed from the waist down after a serious accident while parachuting in 2003.The doctors never said anything about floating,though.In 2021,she got to do just that.
Mazyck was one of 12 participants in a Zero G flight,organized by the group AstroAccess.This type of flight recreates the weightlessness that astronauts experience without going all the way to space.Flying over the Pacific Ocean off Southern California,the modified 747 jet airplane made 15 steep dives and climbs,allowing the flyers multiple periods of weightlessness.
The experience left Mazyck feeling joyful.“The flight was something that I would have never in my wildest dreams thought I would have experienced,” she says,“especially the floating,the weightlessness.”
Traditionally,strict physical requirements have prevented disabled people from becoming astronauts.AstroAccess is working to make space accessible to all.“Space removes the barriers between people; now is the time to remove the barriers to space itself,” says Mazyck.“It is sending a message to people who have historically been excluded from STEM that not only is there room for you in space,there is a need for you.”
During the flight,she says,the participants did experiments and made observations.They took note of things that people without certain disabilities might not realize are issues.For example,people who couldn't grip with their legs needed another way to hold themselves still while weightless.The group also experimented with signaling lights for the deaf and with ways of using braille (盲文) for the blind.
These types of issues are easy enough to address.Now is the time to make space accessible — before space tourism or space settlements become commonplace.“I am so proud and elated about what's happening here,” Mazyck adds.“We are paving the way for the future.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了AstroAccess组织参与者进行失重体验,腰部以下瘫痪的Mazyck就是其中一名参与者。AstroAccess正在努力使所有人都能进入太空。
8.What do we know about AstroAccess?( )
A.It redesigns jet airplanes.
B.It offers weightlessness experience.
C.It provides physical treatment.
D.It trains the disabled to be astronauts.
B [细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句可知,AstroAccess提供失重体验。]
9.What is required in the flights for the participants?( )
A.Astronaut experience.
B.Steep dives and climbs.
C.Weightlessness periods.
D.Trials and observations.
D [细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“During the flight,she says,the participants did experiments and made observations.”可知,参与者的飞行要求是试验和观察。]
10.Which of the following words can best describe Mazyck?( )
A.Generous and determined.
B.Caring and persistent.
C.Courageous and optimistic.
D.Ambitious and innovative.
C [推理判断题。根据第三段以及倒数第三段最后两句再结合全文内容可推知,Mazyck勇敢乐观。故选C。]
11.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?( )
A.Paving the Way for the Future
B.Disabled Americans Make It to Space
C.Making Space a Place for Everyone
D.US Veterans Experience Zero G Flights
C [标题归纳题。根据最后一段,再结合文章主要说明了AstroAccess组织参与者进行失重体验,腰部以下瘫痪的Mazyck就是其中一名参与者。AstroAccess正在努力使所有人都能进入太空可知,C项“让太空成为每个人的地方”最适合作为文章标题。故选C。]

When she was 61,Sian Davies decided to row across the Atlantic Ocean.In March 2021,she was one of the 12 crew members who set out on the 3,000-mile journey from Tenerife to battle sun,salt and fierce currents.“We would row in three-hour shifts and only sleep for an hour or so every six hours,” she says.“For the first 15 days,I was seasick,so I hardly ate anything.I was just rowing and collapsing.I went through some pretty dark times.”
But after 42 days on the water,Davies reached Antigua to become one of the only six women in the world over the age of 60 to have rowed across an ocean.“I was exhausted and I was also so proud of myself,” she says.
Davies began rowing when she was 53,after spotting a six-oar (桨) rowing boat in Bristol harbor.Attracted by its size and appearance,she spoke to the crew and was encouraged to do a trial run.“As soon as I got on the water,I fell in love with it,” she says.“Feeling your whole body working and the fresh air on your skin is amazing.”
It wasn't until 2017,though,that her Atlantic plans were born.Suffering from a herniated disc (椎间盘突出),she was only able to crawl out of bed.“I began thinking of things I could look forward to after I had surgery,” she says.“One day I was reading about women adventurers when it hit me that once better,I would row across an ocean.”
After successful surgery,Davies began driving to meet other women who had undertaken rows.Hearing the experiences and advice of them gave Davies the confidence.Soon after,she heard that a new boat producer was organizing a team for a voyage across the Atlantic and she joined it immediately.
“In June,I'm planning to break a few world records by rowing around the UK when I'm 64,and I want to motorcycle through the Himalayas later in the year.After all,we need things to look back on,” she says.
4.What do we know about Davies' journey across the Atlantic?( )
A.She fell apart and abandoned the task.
B.She suffered a lot during the process.
C.She was the oldest woman to finish it.
D.She rowed along with six other women.
5.How did Davies feel about her first attempt to row?( )
A.Painful. B.Frightened.
C.Confident. D.Impressed.
6.What inspired Davies to row across an ocean?( )
A.A trial row on a six-oar rowing boat.
B.Support from a boat company.
C.Stories of some women adventurers.
D.Sufferings from her back pain.
7.Which of the following best describes Davies?( )
A.Caring and open-minded.
B.Humble and self-motivated.
C.Determined and easy-going.
D.Strong-willed and ambitious.
C 篇(限时7分钟)
(2024·浙江湖州二模)
US Army veteran (退伍老兵) Mazyck remembers when doctors told her she would never walk again.She'd been paralyzed from the waist down after a serious accident while parachuting in 2003.The doctors never said anything about floating,though.In 2021,she got to do just that.
Mazyck was one of 12 participants in a Zero G flight,organized by the group AstroAccess.This type of flight recreates the weightlessness that astronauts experience without going all the way to space.Flying over the Pacific Ocean off Southern California,the modified 747 jet airplane made 15 steep dives and climbs,allowing the flyers multiple periods of weightlessness.
The experience left Mazyck feeling joyful.“The flight was something that I would have never in my wildest dreams thought I would have experienced,” she says,“especially the floating,the weightlessness.”
Traditionally,strict physical requirements have prevented disabled people from becoming astronauts.AstroAccess is working to make space accessible to all.“Space removes the barriers between people; now is the time to remove the barriers to space itself,” says Mazyck.“It is sending a message to people who have historically been excluded from STEM that not only is there room for you in space,there is a need for you.”
During the flight,she says,the participants did experiments and made observations.They took note of things that people without certain disabilities might not realize are issues.For example,people who couldn't grip with their legs needed another way to hold themselves still while weightless.The group also experimented with signaling lights for the deaf and with ways of using braille (盲文) for the blind.
These types of issues are easy enough to address.Now is the time to make space accessible — before space tourism or space settlements become commonplace.“I am so proud and elated about what's happening here,” Mazyck adds.“We are paving the way for the future.”
