【题目】 Winter sports tend to be more dangerous than summer sports—they take place mostly outside at the mercy of ice or snow, involving metal edges, extreme speeds and crashes. Skeleton (俯式冰撬), however, stands apart as one of the most difficult and least accessible of all the winter sports. Adam Edelman, Israel’s first Olympic skeleton athlete, would like to change that.

Edelman was the 10th athlete named to the 2018 Israeli Olympic Team. Qualifying for the Olympics in any sport is impressive. But it’s more impressive if you qualify for the Olympics after only four years in the sport—and without a coach.

Edelman was first introduced to skeleton watching the game on television in late 2013. Sports have always been a part of his life. He grew up playing football and was a goalkeeper on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology football team. Ready for a new challenge, he set his sights on the Olympics.

Without a coach, Edelman learned to drive by watching endless hours of YouTube videos and taking more runs than anybody else on the track. “When everybody else would take three runs per day, I would take six to eight.” he recalled.

Succeeding in skeleton takes a large amount of athletic ability and technical skill, but there’s one more element (因素) required, one that can’t be taught. “These tracks but built in the middle of nowhere, and it’s gray and cold. You haven’t seen your family in seven months and you really just want to give up. To continue, it takes tenacity.” Edelman said.

Edelman is already looking beyond Pyeongchang. The 2022 Olympics could be in his future, but whether he continues to compete or not, he promises to stay in Israeli sports as long as possible-as instructor or as a coach.

【1】What might impress people most?

A.Edelman’s gift in winter sports.

B.The challenges Edelman has met

C.Edelman entering for the Olympics.

D.Edelman’s successful story as a skeleton athlete

【2】What does the underlined word “tenacity” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.willpowerB.Extra strength

C.Good luckD.Financial support

【3】What might be Edelman’s plan for the future?

A.Setting up a team of his own.

B.Passing on his skills and experience.

C.Calling on more people to take up sports.

D.Ending his sports life after the Olympic Games.

【4】Which of the following words can best describe Edelman?

A.intelligentB.confident

C.patientD.determined

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】B

【4】C

【解析】

这是一篇人物传记。主要介绍了以色列冬季项目的运动员Adam Edelman，详细讲述了他的成功经历以及他对未来所抱有的雄心壮志。

【1】细节理解题。根据第一段中“But it’s more impressive if you qualify for the Olympics after only four years in the sport—and without a coach.” 但是，如果你只参加这项运动四年，却没有教练，还具备资格参加奥运会，这会给人留下深刻的印象。再根据下文Edelman是如何在没有教练的情况下独自训练，如何在俯式冰撬运动上获得成功可知，Edelman作为一名俯式冰撬运动员的成功故事，给人们留下的印象最深刻。故选D项。

【2】词义猜测题。根据前文中“You haven’t seen your family in seven months and you really just want to give up.” 你已经七个月没有见过家人了，此时你会真的想放弃。A. willpower意志力；B. Extra strength额外的力量；C. Good luck好运；D. Financial support金融支持。通过上下文语境可知要继续的话需要有毅力。A项willpower意志力切合题意。故选A项。

【3】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The 2022 Olympics could be in his future, but whether he continues to compete or not, he promises to stay in Israeli sports as long as possible-as instructor or as a coach.” 2022年奥运会可能是他的未来，但是无论他是否继续参加比赛，他都承诺将尽可能长期地以教练的身份留在以色列的体育运动中。由此判断出他未来计划作为教练的身份传授他的技能和经验。故选B项。

【4】推理判断题。根据第四段中“Without a coach, Edelman learned to drive by watching endless hours of YouTube videos and taking more runs than anybody else on the track.”在没有教练的情况下，Edelman通过看无数的YouTube视频来学习，并比其他任何人都跑得更多。由此判断出Edelman是一个有耐心的人。故选C项。

Treatment without delay plays a dominant role. If you promptly see your doctor upon noticing symptoms, he or she may give you an antiviral drug, oseltamivir. 【3】“The best way to treat the flu is to rest, drink fluids and use any other remedies that best relieve your symptoms such as pain reliever for headaches and achy muscles.” says a professor of infectious diseases at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

【题目】Wanna soften the blow of a hangover?

A hangover refers to the headache and sick feeling that you have the day after drinking too much alcohol. If you are looking for something to nurse your hangover, you will find the following right ideas.

1. ASIAN PEAR JUICE

Have some extra Asian pears at home? Run them through your juicer before your next night out. According to researchers at Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, just 7.4 ounces of Asian pear juice is enough to soften the blow of a hangover. The scientists say that the juice interacts with enzymes that break down alcohol, speeding up your metabolism and leaving less surplus alcohol for your body to absorb. There’s just one catch: The juice must be consumed before you drink anything else in order to be effective.

2. MUSIC

Anyone who’s ever suffered through a massive hangover knows that sound is the enemy. But while your roommate’s 9 a.m. tap dancing practice might exacerbate (加剧) your symptoms, music may have the opposite effect. Research has shown that listening to music can provide relief to migraines, which are similar to hangover headaches. As long as the music is pleasant and suits your taste, it should help to drown out the chorus of pain laying in your mind. Head sensitivity isn’t the only symptom music helps with. According to researchers at the University of Edinburgh, listening to your favorite music also eases pain.

3. EGGS

The best way to tackle a hangover with food is to eat while you drink. Chowing down after the damage has already been done may distract you from your turmoil for a short while, but it won’t soothe your physical symptoms. There are a few exceptions: Eggs, for example, have hangover-fighting potential thanks to a special ingredient. The food is packed with cysteine, an amino acid that breaks down the drinking byproduct acetaldehyde (乙醛). So whether you prefer to enjoy brunch out or at home, make sure your meal includes eggs in some form.

【1】According to the passage, the author may agree with the following EXCEPT______.

A.Asian pear juice can help soften the blow of a hangover if you drink it before anything else.

B.Your roommate can make you suffer less from a hangover by practising tap dancing at 9.

C.Eggs are said to contain a special ingredient that may soothe the symptoms of a hangover.

D.Enjoying your favorite piece of music is an efficient way to fight the pain of a hangover.

【2】The passage is most probably taken from ______.

A.a textbookB.a science fiction

C.a health magazineD.an advertisement

【题目】 Craig Blackburn, a father and car fan, built a Batmobile for his son’s hope for using the vehicle to brighten the lives of sick children. And now he hopes to use it for more than just his son's hope after seeing the children's reaction to the Batmobile.

Based on the number of failures he had seen in car groups, he estimated that only about one in 50 attempted constructions was actually finished and he realized what an incredible opportunity he had.

Mr. Blackburn started the project at the beginning of 2018 after hearing a friend in the US was doing the same thing. It started with importing an outer shell overseas, before picking brains of a friend who had a background as a worker in a car factory to gain knowledge of how to build the car. With the help of his friend, Mr. Blackburn built the Batmobile in 18 months with the cost reaching six figures.

Mr. Blackburn hoped to add a flamethrower(喷火器) onto the back of the vehicle and said he had thought about building the more recent Batman Tumbler from the series film Dark Knight. Though Mr. Blackburn encountered plenty of difficulties to get over during the construction, in September 2019, the car made its first show at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba, before being used by Blackburn's son for his hope.

“It was great. It was so good to see the kids' and adults' excitement at seeing the Batmobile.” Mr. Blackburn said. As a result, the car lovers hope to make the car work on the roads as soon as possible, so he can visit sick children and take them out with his son.

【1】What is Craig Blackburn's initial purpose of making the Batmobile?

A.To realize his son's dream.

B.To donate it to sick children.

C.To pay his respects to the film Dark Knight.

D.To show off at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba.

【2】How did Blackburn feel about the car-making at first?

A.Hopeful.

B.Uncertain.

C.Impossible.

D.Confused.

【3】How did Blackburn's friend help him?

A.By offering him financial support.

B.By making an outer shell for him.

C.By sharing the knowledge of building cars.

D.By telling him the backgroud of the car factory.

【4】What is the car lovers' expectation of the Batmobile?

A.It can be displayed around the world.

B.It will be driven soon on the roads.

C.It can change the lives of sick children.

D.It will appear in the next film about Batman.

One evening after work, I found a beautiful little fox with a injured leg. She was like a Disney fox. Then I fed her some fish. A couple of week later the fox was back, completely better and had visited ever since. She was comfortably enough to come really near to me. She allowed me to photographing her, the best of which I posted it on social media. Soon after, one day she took her cubs together to visit me, that was really unexpected.
