As his parents worked on farms, Deng took on the responsibility of looking after his four younger sisters and brothers.

The Asian Games include many special sports events. On Sept 24, at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, people burst into thunderous (雷鸣般的) cheers after China’s Tong Xin finished a difficult move. For the move, she had to make a 540-degree turn. In the end, she won the women’s taijiquan and taijijian all-round gold (女子太极拳太极剑全能金牌) at the sports event. Tong’s slow but strong actions with her sword (剑) showed perfectly Chinese wushu’s beautiful mix of soft and hard moves. As a sport showing regional (区域的) culture, wushu was included in the Asian Games in 1990. Apart from wushu, many other special sports from different Asian areas were also seen at the sports event, making it a party of folk cultures. Kabaddi (卡巴迪) and sepak takraw (藤球) are two examples. Kabaddi(卡巴迪) is a folk sport from India and has a history of more than 4,000 years. As the athletic form (竞技版) of the game “eagle catching chickens”, kabaddi needs nothing but an area that is 13 meters long and 10 meters wide. Sepak takraw first became popular in Southeast Asia. It is similar to the traditional Chinese game of shuttlecock kicking (踢毽子). Players need to use their feet, head, knees and other parts of their body to move the ball. It is also called “kick volleyball”. Although the Asian Games don’t include as many countries as the Olympic Games, they have even more events, especially the ones born out of the Asian region. This makes it really unique. As Chinese President Xi Jinping said at the event’s opening ceremony (开幕式), “The 19th Asian Games have included many sports with special Asian features. It provides a platform (舞台) to celebrate sports and culture, and showcases Asian culture that is inclusive (包容的), lively and always keen to learn from others.” 21．What did Tong Xin not do at the 19th Asian Games? A．She made a 540-degree turn. B．She won the gold medal with her team. C．She completed a difficult move. D．She received the people’s applause. 22．When did people see Wushu in the Asian Games if it is held every four years? A．At the 19th Asian Games. B．At the 17th Asian Games. C．At the 11th Asian Games. D．At the 1st Asian Games. 23．What can we learn about Kabaddi? A．It was first played about 4000 years ago. B．It is a sport from China. C．Its area is 13 meters wide. D．It is like shuttlecock kicking. 24．What did Chinese President Xi Jinping say about the 19th Asian Games? A．China is very happy to hold the 19th Asian Games. B．The 19th Asian Games is very popular all over the world. C．It is very important for Chinese to hole the Asian Games. D．Many disciplines with special Asian features have been included at the 19th Asian games. 25．Which part can we see the passage in the newspaper? A．Story. B．Sports. C．Amusement. D．Science. 三、阅读还原（本题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 补全短文根据短文内容，从短文后的A—F选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文。 Tough Mudder (最强泥人) is one of the most difficult obstacle course race (障碍赛) in the world. 26 It can be a challenge (挑战) for anyone to get past the finish line, but 83-year-old Mildred Wilson from Missouri, the USA surprised us.

The Asian Games include many special sports events. On Sept 24, at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, people burst into thunderous (雷鸣般的) cheers after China’s Tong Xin finished a difficult move. For the move, she had to make a 540-degree turn. In the end, she won the women’s taijiquan and taijijian all-round gold (女子太极拳太极剑全能金牌) at the sports event. Tong’s slow but strong actions with her sword (剑) showed perfectly Chinese wushu’s beautiful mix of soft and hard moves. As a sport showing regional (区域的) culture, wushu was included in the Asian Games in 1990. Apart from wushu, many other special sports from different Asian areas were also seen at the sports event, making it a party of folk cultures. Kabaddi (卡巴迪) and sepak takraw (藤球) are two examples. Kabaddi(卡巴迪) is a folk sport from India and has a history of more than 4,000 years. As the athletic form (竞技版) of the game “eagle catching chickens”, kabaddi needs nothing but an area that is 13 meters long and 10 meters wide. Sepak takraw first became popular in Southeast Asia. It is similar to the traditional Chinese game of shuttlecock kicking (踢毽子). Players need to use their feet, head, knees and other parts of their body to move the ball. It is also called “kick volleyball”. Although the Asian Games don’t include as many countries as the Olympic Games, they have even more events, especially the ones born out of the Asian region. This makes it really unique. As Chinese President Xi Jinping said at the event’s opening ceremony (开幕式), “The 19th Asian Games have included many sports with special Asian features. It provides a platform (舞台) to celebrate sports and culture, and showcases Asian culture that is inclusive (包容的), lively and always keen to learn from others.” 21．What did Tong Xin not do at the 19th Asian Games? A．She made a 540-degree turn. B．She won the gold medal with her team. C．She completed a difficult move. D．She received the people’s applause. 22．When did people see Wushu in the Asian Games if it is held every four years? A．At the 19th Asian Games. B．At the 17th Asian Games. C．At the 11th Asian Games. D．At the 1st Asian Games. 23．What can we learn about Kabaddi? A．It was first played about 4000 years ago. B．It is a sport from China. C．Its area is 13 meters wide. D．It is like shuttlecock kicking. 24．What did Chinese President Xi Jinping say about the 19th Asian Games? A．China is very happy to hold the 19th Asian Games. B．The 19th Asian Games is very popular all over the world. C．It is very important for Chinese to hole the Asian Games. D．Many disciplines with special Asian features have been included at the 19th Asian games. 25．Which part can we see the passage in the newspaper? A．Story. B．Sports. C．Amusement. D．Science. 【答案】21．B 22．C 23．A 24．D 25．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了第十九届亚运会的相关内容，包括童心获得女子太极拳太极剑全能金牌以及其他来自亚洲不同地区的特殊运动项目。 21．细节理解题。根据“In the end, she won the women’s taijiquan and taijijian all-round gold (女子太极拳太极剑全能金牌) at the sports event.”可知，童心在第19届亚运会上获得个人金牌，而不是和团队一起获得金牌，此题为选非题。故选B。 22．推理判断题。根据“wushu was included in the Asian Games in 1990”可知，武术在1990年被列入亚运会项目，亚运会每四年举办一次，1990年是第11届亚运会。故选C。 23．细节理解题。根据文章“Kabaddi is a folk sport from India and has a history of more than 4,000 years”可知，卡巴迪大约在4000年前开始流行。故选A。 24．细节理解题。根据文章“As Chinese President Xi Jinping said at the event’s opening ceremony, ‘The 19th Asian Games have included many sports with special Asian features’”可知，习近平主席提到第19届亚运会包含了许多具有亚洲特色的项目。故选D。 25．推理判断题。根据文章内容，主要介绍了亚运会的体育项目，因此可以在报纸的体育版块看到这篇文章。故选B。 三、阅读还原（本题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 补全短文根据短文内容，从短文后的A—F选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文。 Tough Mudder (最强泥人) is one of the most difficult obstacle course race (障碍赛) in the world. 26 It can be a challenge (挑战) for anyone to get past the finish line, but 83-year-old Mildred Wilson from Missouri, the USA surprised us.
