【解析】(1)逻辑推理题。又是地区运动会了, 可作者的脚由于上一次的(earlier)受伤仍然还没有痊愈。注意本句中的过去完成时态及still的意义有着明显的提示意义。slighter更轻微的; worse更糟的; earlier更早的, 上一次的; heavier更沉重的, 巨大的。
(2)逻辑推理题。根据上句可知, 作者不是认为(supposed), 设想(imagined), 希望(expected)参加运动会, 而是怀疑(doubted)自己是否应该参加运动会。
(3)逻辑推理题。但是我到了比赛场地, 准备(ready)参加3 000米跑步。
(4)前后照应题。其他的女孩子不是落到了后面(from behind), 靠近(close to, next to)作者, 而是冲到了作者的前面(ahead of)。后文as I fell farther and farther behind有所暗示。
(5)背景常识题。作者越来越落后, 作者不会感到惊讶(astonished), 也激动(excited)不起来, 而是感到惭愧(ashamed), 当然不至于害怕(frightened)。
(6)词汇复现题。这是作者在运动会上听到的最大的欢呼声(cheer)。前面“Hooray! ”(欢呼的叫声)也有所暗示, 后文I heard a cheer—than the one I’d heard earlier和They must be cheering for the boys. 也都有明显提示。
(7)逻辑推理题。第一名已经先我两圈到达了终点, 作者心想可能自己不该参加比赛, 应该放弃(drop out)才对。slow down(使)慢下来, (使)减速; drop out不参与, 离去, 放弃; go on继续下去; speed up加速。
(8)逻辑推理题。然而我还是决定坚持跑下去。注意前后句子之间的转折意义。therefore因此, 所以, 表示因果关系; otherwise另外, 否则, 表示其他情况的出现; besides此外, 还, 表示附加意义; however然而, 可是, 表示转折关系。
(9)前后照应题。跑最后两圈时, 作者无法轻松(with delight)起来, 也没有害怕恐惧(with fear), 当然也无法提前(in advance)到达, 而是在脚疼(in pain)的状态中跑着。前文My foot still hadn’t healed from a(n)injury. 已经有所提示。
(10)逻辑推理题。作者在想这一次已经没有办法了, 明年就不参加赛跑了。文中一再谈到race和track。
(11)逻辑推理题。由上文作者已落后且脚有伤, 可知作者认为这样做不值得, 故用worth, valuable后不能直接加宾语。
(12)前后照应题。欢呼声不是更弱(weaker), 更低(lower), 而是更大(louder)。longer缺少比较的对象或前提。
(13)逻辑推理题。作者转身看到男孩子正准备开始比赛, 确信(sure)大家是为男孩子欢呼。
(14)逻辑推理题。作者正准备离开, 这时几个女孩子走上前来。when在此句中作并列连词, 意思是“正在这时, 就在那个时候, 突然”。while作从属连词, 表示“当……时候”, 通常强调两个动作或情况的同时发生; as作从属连词, 表示“当……时候”, 通常强调一个动作或情况伴随另一动作或情况; since作从属连词, 表示“自……以后, 自……以来”。
(15)逻辑推理题。作者对女孩的赞扬不解, 因为她刚刚跑过了终点, 结束了比赛, 但跑在最后没有获胜, 输(lose)了比赛。
(16)逻辑推理题。女孩子们的鼓励使作者又找回了失去的希望(hope), 而不是欢乐(cheer), 兴趣(interest), 经验(experience)。
(17)词语辨析题。作者决定明年还要参加(stick with)径赛比赛。hold on把持住, 不挂断, 停止, 继续, 常有hold on to的用法。turn to转向, 求助于, 致力于, 开始行动; be gin with首先, 用……开头; stick with与……固定在一起, 坚持做(某事)。
(18)逻辑推理题。作者意识到力量和勇气并非总是可以用奖牌和胜利衡量(measure)的。measure估量, 斟酌, 权衡; praise赞扬, 称赞; test测试, 检验; increase增加, 增大。
(19)逻辑推理题。但是在我们战胜了的“竞争”中, 力量和勇气总是可以估量出来。sadness悲哀, 悲伤; struggle挣扎, 努力, 奋斗; disease疾病, 弊病; tiredness疲劳, 疲倦。
(20)逻辑推理题。最坚强的人并非总是赢得胜利的人, 而是(but)那些遇到失败挫折时决不放弃的人。or或者, 还是, 表示选择关系; nor也不, 表示否定关系; and表示并列关系; but表示转折关系。

【题目】Have you ever considered volunteering? It gives you a chance to give back. You’ll feel a sense of pride that you are volunteering your time, and a local organization will benefit, too. But how to volunteer? Follow the three steps before you enjoy it.

Pick an organization. 1 You’re likely to be happier and volunteer longer at an organization that supports a cause you care about. For example, if you’re interested in animal welfare, maybe you want to volunteer at an animal shelter. Much like job search sites, you can also use volunteer websites like Volunteer Match or Serve.gov to help you find volunteer opportunities in your area. If you still can’t narrow down where you want to volunteer, start asking people you know where they volunteer. 2

Be clear what you can offer. First identify your skills. For example, maybe you could write brochures for local nonprofits if writing is your style. 3 You need to be sure how much time you can give to an organization based on your other commitments. If you try to do too much, you ‘re more likely to give up.

4 Treat the application like a job. Spend some time preparing for the interview, much as you would for a job interview. 5 Ask what’s expected of volunteers. For instance, volunteers at a museum may be expected to learn parts of the galleries to give tours. Start volunteering slowly. That is, it’s better to commit to just a little bit of time at first to see if you like volunteering at the organization.

A.Apply and get started.

B.Volunteer in person or online.

C.Then don’t forget to review your weekly schedule.

D.You’d better focus on the causes you like very much.

E.You may find one of them has the perfect opportunity for you.

F.It is also a time for you to assess whether the organization is fit for you.

G.First find an organization that’s a good fit for you, and then decide what you have to offer.
