The Big Race
"You got this! Keep going!"
The cheering of the crowd filled my mind as I continued to push myself forward
"I can't 13 now," I thought. All my hard work came down to this moment.
Before the race, I had spent several months waking up early each morning. The
cool air swept through me as I ran out the front door, greeted by the 14 streets.
The world became my very own training ground. This time was my favourite time
of day.
I was born into a "running family". My parents have taken part in many
marathons (马拉松). My brother has followed in their steps and competes in at least
4 races in a year. Unlike hirn, I didn't 15 fall into the running life. I put up a fight.
"Running is thebest thing for you. I don't know how people can 16 it,"my
dad questioned during many dinner conversations.
"You would be a fool not to join the track(田径) team, Colleen," my mom said
seriously.
"Of course I will. " I replied impatiently. "What could be more fun than running?"
To my surprise, hundreds of practices and a few track meets later, I found mysel
in 17 with my parents, as I had come to enjoy running.
Then came the time when my dad asked the big question. "So, the marathon is in
November. What are you thinking?"
"Yeah, let's do it!" The words suddenly came out before I could fully consider the
question. I couldn't 18 him. He had been expecting me to run a marathon with
him for years.

At mile marker 2o, my legs began to lose fccling. I saw the timers on the side and
knew that I wouldn't finish the race in my expected time, a goal that I promised my
dad I would reach. Just then I noticed my father looking back and smiling at me.
Suddenly, I felt that the goal did not 19 any more. My legs carried me forward
with renewed energy.
The finish line was in sight. "There she is!" My dad cheered on.
I crossed the finish line with a sense of 2o . I didn't reach my goal, but I
achieved something more on tbat morning. I even couldn't wait to do it again.

younger brother. Jason.
"Boys, please take more water. Two bottles each isn't going to be enough.

morning in July..."
Mark cut in, saying,"Dad,, we'll be fine. We hiked in'Big Bend when we lived
here, remember? We'll only bergore for a few hours, and I have my cell phone." He
sounded confident.
But David Saldivar was worried. Five years ago, he hiked in Big Bend Nationa
Park with his sons. Today he had to call in to a meeting at work, so they were on their
own.
David watched his sons head out towards the canyon trail(小路), which offerec
beautiful views of the mountains, but was short of shade(阴凉处).
The brothers made good progress in their first few hours of hiking. The air was
cool and Mark managed to take some amazing wildlife pictures.
In early afternoon, the brothers were down to a bottle of water each, but Mark
was sure it was enough for the time left. They continued along the trail. The sun beat
down harder with every step they took

hour, their dad appeared with more water
"Are you OK?" their dad. asked.
"We're just fine," Mark replied, smiling weakly
As they slowly made their way back, Mark said, "You -were right, Dad: We
didn't pay as much attention to what you said as we should.have: I'll-be sure to take all
your hiking advice in the future."

C
A United Nations scientific report states that human-caused climate change is
greatly reducing land quality worldwide. It also warns that the way humans use land is
causing the Earth to warm faster and could harm food production
About 30 percent of the Earth's surface is land, but the land is warming two times
faster than the planet as a whole. While greenhouse gases are causing global (全球的)
warming, land has been less talked about as a part of climate change. In-fact, the way
we use land is both part of the problem and part of the solution
Climate change has caused serious-harm to the land. It has caused deserts to
spread and made forests more easily harmed by fire, disease. and shortage of water
英语试卷第5页(共10页)
Meanwhile, farming and forestry together account. for: about 23 percent of the
greenhouse gases.
Scientists have long believed that one of the few good things about
higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO) is that plants grow well in such
conditions. But many studies show that the high levels of carbon
dioxide reduce protein(蛋白质) and nutrients(营养物) in many
crops. For example, they cause wheat to have 6 to 13 percent less
protein, 4 to 7 percent less zinc (Zn) and 8 percent less iron (Fe). The
report also warns of more harmful effects of climate change on the
wheat
global food supply(供应). It predicts a rise of 7.6 percent in cereal(谷物) prices by
2050. Higher food prices will lead to an increased risk of hunger.
The report suggests that we can change the way we farm and eat to slow down the
temperature rise. It notes that better, smarter farming methods can reduce carbon
levels by up to 18 percent of present emission (排放) levels by 2o50. Carbon emissions
can be reduced further if we eat less red meat and more plant-based foods like fruits
vegetables and seeds. That will also free up several million sauare kilometres of land
by2050.
Reducing food waste is also an important part of fighting climate change. The
report notes that almost one-third of food produced is lost or wasted. Reducing food
waste would reduce emissions and help feed more people. However, the report warns
that "the window for making these changes is closing fast."
27. According to the report, what is one cause of climate change?
A. Forest fires.
B. Improper land use.
C. Iow rainfalls.
D. Large areas of deserts.
28. What does the example of wheat in Paragraph 4 show?
A. The reason for the increase of food prices.
B. The disadvantage of wheat as a cereal crop.
C. The effect of climate change on food quality
D. The importance of wheat in crop production
z9. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Smarter farming will increase carbon emissions
B. Worldwide hunger is mainly caused by food waste.
C. Cereal production mostly depends on farming methods
D. Eating less red meat can slow down the temperature rise.

Does this sound familiar? A workmate asks, "What are you up to this weekend?"
You tell her you're not sure. She replies with her own exciting plan. "I'm going to my
lake house to have a big party."
I call this " boomerasking". Lilse a boomerang,
boomeraskers ask a question, let their partner answer and
then immediately bring the focus of the conversation back tc
themselves. They try to both show interest in their partner
and disclose something about themselves, but they fail to
achieve either goal.
boomerang
We know it is good to show interest in our partners during conversations in many
ways-by asking questions, supporting a different opinion, or saying something that
relates to what the other person iust said, However, self-centredness is tricky to
outrnn. As humans, we mostly think about our own viewpoint. Between 4o% and
60% of what people say in conversations is about themselves-their feelings, opinions,
and personal experiences. On social media, it's even worse-8o% of communication is
self-related.
For many people, self-disclosure simply feels great. A willingness to open up to
others is an important sign of liking and closeness: it shows that you trust someone to
know things about you. It's also the primary way people shape how others think of
them. By carefully choosing what to share, we try to seem kind, smart, confident and
interesting in our partners' eyes. And we show off or complain, hoping to receive
admiration or understanding.
Still, we recognise that social rules discourage overly self-centred behaviour and
try to deal with this problem with some indirect habits. People who want others to
admire them might pretend(假装) to complain while actually showing off, like saying,
"I'm tired from all the interviews about my new book." Others wanting to seem higher
position might give mixed praise, like "Your ideas were pretty good, for a beginner."
But compared with these ways we try to hide our self-centredness, boomerasking may
be worse because it reduces the benefits of asking questions
Asking heartfelt questions, listening to others' answers and following up on those
answers may be the easiest and most powerful pathway to shared understanding and
interpersonal connection. Boomerasking breaks the magic. Failing to follow up on your
partner's answer, and answering the question yourself instead, makes others feel like
you don't care about them.
英语试卷 第7页(共10页)
So don't boomeraskl When another person shares their views,:focus on them. We
should all aim to be more interested in our partners before we go back to proving how
interesting we are ourselves.
30. What will boomeraskers do after they ask a auestion about your hobbies
A. Stay quiet and give you space to talk freely.
B. Stop you when you talk and discuss a different topic.
C. Listen to your answer carefully and ask follow-up questions
D. Pay little attention to your answer and talk about their hobbies.
31. The words "tricky to outrun" in Paragraph 3 probably mean"
A. hard to shake off
B. unusual to see
C. pleasant to accept
D. simple to deal with
32. The writer probably agrees that __.
A. boomerasking balances caring about others and opening up
B. self-centredness is unwelcome even when expressed indirectly
C. mixed praise is a straight and honest way to express adrmiration
D. it's wise to shape others' opinions by sharing a lot about yourself
33. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To guide people in building interesting conversations.
B. To prove the effect of self-centredness in conversations
C. To encourage better listening and replying in conversations.
D. To explore the reasons for people's showing off in conversations

Growing Awareness
Andrea Carter was about 1o years old when she decided to spend her life growing
food: Her family travelled each summer te zural(乡村的) Vermont, where she 'spent
many hours.working in a neighbour's fields. "We weeded.(除草) and picked tomatoes
and green beans," she recalled. "Looking back, it was a gift to experience farming and
to see where food comes from."
英语试卷,第8页(共10页)
When Carter grew up, she followed her interest in plants by studying at the
University of Arizona in Tucson, which is in the Sonoran Desert. Today , Carter is a crop
scientist focusing on plants that grow in deserts. She works at a nonprofit (非 营利性的)
organization called Native Seeds in Tucson. The organization aims to protect seedsl(种子)
that can survive in the dry climates and to share knowledge about how to grow ther:.
These seeds, including corns, beans, and other crops, have been grown by native
farmers for centuries, But they're at risk of disappearing if not grown properly or not
grown at all. To prevent that from happening, the organization works with farmers to
grow these crops, harvest their seeds, and then store them in a seed bank for
future use.
As the director of Native Seeds, Carter says strong communication skills are very
important.! She leads workshops about dryland farming in. the American Southwest and
educates orhers about the importance of protecting local seeds. One of Carter's favorite
parts of her: job is visting farms "I enjoy communicating with farmers, who are
interested in growing and care for their communityand the Earth," she says.
Carter and her husband also run their vegetable farm near Tucson. She says being
a farmer herself helps her to form stronger connections with other farmers and
understand the challenges they face. "I am hetter at my iob because I am a farmer
too,"she says.
Carter advises young people interested in crop science to visit or volunteer at the
nearest garden or farm to help decide if this is the right career (职业) path for them.
“Find out if you really like being with plants and being outside and growing things."
she says.
34. What did Carter spend many hours doing in Vermont each summer?
35. What does the organization Native Seeds aim to do?
36. How does being a farmer help Carter with her job
