【题目】 Adventure-seeker Emma broke her ankle when she fell awkwardly while climbing a rock and spent a week in hospital waiting for an operation on her foot. When she was sent home to recover under strict instructions not to bear any weight, she became so fearful of crutches (拐杖) that she didn't move for three weeks. “I tried crutches but I kept falling over and injuring myself. So I literally just stayed on the sofa all day, ” says Emma.

She was gutted at the thought of missing the Wolf Run — a quarterly event that she hasn't missed since 2014. “If you complete four Wolf Runs in a year, one in each season, you get Alpha Wolf status,” explains Emma. “This year was going to be my fifth in a row as an Alpha Wolf and I was really upset that I'd lose my status.” So she was willing to try anything to get through the course — even with her injured ankle.

“I was telling my friend that I was going to cancel, and he persuaded me to give it a go. Having something to aim for really kept me going." Emma completed the run wearing an iWALK2.0, which is a medically-approved device and it basically functions like a hi-tech artificial leg, allowing users to walk freely. I decided to get one and it completely changed my recovery. I could move around the house and start getting out and about again, which had a real impact on my mental well-being.”

On the day of the race, Emma was nervous but the sound of people cheering her on kept her motivated. Emma made it over the finish line in just under six hours and clocked up her 23rd Wolf Run in five years. “It was an incredible day and my determination to finish combined with the support I received along the way kept me going,” says Emma.

1Why was Emma frightened to use a crutch?

A.She was afraid of recovering slowly.

B.She was warned not to move around.

C.She just had an operation on her foot.

D.She often got injured when using one.

2What does the underlined word “gutted” mean in Paragraph 2?

A.Extremely sad.B.A bit relieved.

C.Very surprised.D.Pretty cheerful.

3What actually made Emma take part in the race?

A.Her new hi-tech artificial leg.

B.Her fear of letting her friend down.

C.Her strong desire to achieve her ambition.

D.Her complete recovery from the operation.

4Which of the following best describes Emma?

A.Strong-willed.B.Supportive.

【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Agricultural experts say crop diversity is important to feed the1(increase) population of our planet. They say having a large variety of plants also2(help) to protect against possible crop diseases and future crises. But many experts say the number has decreased sharply during the past century.

One of the world's 3(large) seed conservation projects has predicted further losses. The Millennium Seed Bank Partnership is warning that up to one hundred thousand plant species could 4 (permanent) disappear. The rich collection of genes5 decide their qualities would disappear with them.

Many experts blame climate change and loss of habitat, normal growth area, for damaging plant life. They say human6(activity) and poorly planned, overly heavy use of land also are responsible. Modern business farming is responsible7loss of farmers' traditional crop varieties. The "Green Revolution" of the twentieth century changed agriculture. Some experts say the use of modern commercial farming methods saved millions of people from8(starve). Farmers planted, watered, and fertilized their crops with the help of machines. They treated their fields with chemicals9(control) diseases and insects. Harvests grew larger and higher quality,10 another result was that some traditional crops were lost. Damage to the environment over the past century makes people believe that crop diversity also suffered.

【题目】 Driving while talking on the phone increases the likelihood of an accident and is actually more dangerous than driving drunk, U.S. researchers report. This holds true whether the driver is holding a cell phone or using a handsfree device.

“As a society, we have agreed on not tolerating the risk associated with drunk driving,”said researcher Frank Drews, an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Utah.“This study shows us that somebody who is conversing on a cell phone is exposing him or herself and others to a similar risk — cell phones actually are a higher risk,”he said.

In the study, 40 people followed a pace car along a prescribed course, using a driving simulator (模拟仪). Some people drove while talking on a cell phone, others drove while drunkmeaning their blood-alcohol limit matched the legal limit of 0.08 percent, and others drove with no such distractions. The researchers found an increased accident rate when people were conversing on the cell phone. Drivers on cell phones were 5.36 times more likely to get in an accident.

The bottom line: Cellphone use was linked to“a significant increase in the accident rate,” Drews said.

The phone users did even worse than the inebriated, the Utah team found. There were three accidents among those talking on cell phones — all of them involving a rearending(追尾) of the pace car. In contrast, there were no accidents recorded among participants who were drunk.

In response to safety concerns, some states have declared it illegal to use hand held cell phones while driving. But that type of law may not be effective, because the Utah researchers found no difference in driver performance whether the driver was holding the phone or talking on a handsfree model.

“We have seen again and again that there is no difference between handsfree and handheld devices,”Drews said.“The problem is the conversation. The best solution to the problem is obvious: Don’t talk on the phone while you are driving. ”

1Which group of drivers performed worst in the study?

A.Those phone users.

B.Those who are drunk.

C.Those following a pace car.

D.Those with hearing problems.

2What does the underlined phrase“the inebriated”in paragraph 5 refer to?

A.The drunk drivers.

B.The researchers.

C.The cellphonefree drivers.

D.The Utah team.

3What can be concluded from the last two paragraphs?

A.Driver performance has nothing to do with the use of mobile phones.

B.It is timely to ban the use of handheld phones while driving.

C.The Utah researchers find the traffic safety law works as well as before.

D.Talking on the phone while driving should be avoided.

4In which section of a newspaper is this text from?

A.Sports.

B.Economy.

C.Society.

D.Entertainment.
