SPARTAN RACES
Long ago,Sparta,an ancient city in Grecce,became known for its brave and powerful
soldiers.Spartan boys,taken away from home train around the age of 7,wcre taught
discipline,physical fitness,battle skills and to obey orders.The training program,(2)(call)
"agoge,"lasted until the young men were around 30 and was mcant to produce warriors who were

Mongolia and Iceland to race 50 kilometers across rough territory.It's advertised as the most
physically and mentally challenging adventure "(7)will forever change your view of

SectionA
Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases markedA,B,C
and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Mercury,an elemental metal that exists in liquid form at room temperature,occurs naturally
in the environment.Metallic mercury occurs primarily in the earth's crust (but can be 21
into the atmosphere by human activities,such as bumine rubbish or coal and gold mining.Organic
mercury is mainly produced when tiny organsms consume inorganic mercury and 22it into an
organic compound such as methyl mercury,a poisoneus chemical that is commonly found in
mercury-polluted water.
Although the impact of mercury on the environment has been 23 by some industries and
individuals,it is a top ten chemical of major health 24 according to the WHO.Despite this,the
severity of mercury's poison remains to be fully understood.Long-time exposure to mercury can

pose significant 25 to human health,including brain damage and reproductive issues.Mercury
also 26 damages the life cycles of water-dwelling creatures.
To protect human health and the environment,the intemational community has taken steps to
limit the use and release of mercury.Adopted in 2013,the Minamata Convention on Mercury
came into effect on August 16,2017,27a global commitment to fight against mercury pollution.
In addition,some countries have made their own laws and regulations,such as the United States'
"Mercury and Air Toxic Standards"and the European Union's"Regulation (EU)2017/852."
The goal of the Minamata Convention is to reduce mercury emissions and protect human
health and the environment by 28 the production and use of mercury and mercury-containing
products.29,the convention promotes scientific and technological innovation to develop
greener,less poisonous altematives.The convention 30 a diverse range of products,including
batteries,.switches and relays,cosmetics and fluorescent(发荧光的)lamps,etc.The plan is to
phase out the mercury in these products over a few years,aiming for full commitment by the end
of 2027.The convention also seeks to restrict dentists'use of mercury in bulk form and dental
amalgam(汞合金),a mercury-based chemical mixture used to till tooth cavities(蛀牙词).This
restriction particularly 31 the dental treatment of baby teeth for patients under 15 years and to
dental treatment for pregnant and breastfeeding women.
32 the Minamata Convention,one province in China has created its own plan to restrict the
production and 33of mercury-containing products and reduce mercury discharges.These efforts
not only protect the local environment but also contribute to the 34 effort to reduce reliance on
this dangerous element.
Mercury pollution is a(n)35environmental issue that no one person or industry can solve
alone.But,if we all work together,we can weaken the impact of mercury and create a healthier,
cleaner planet.

(C)
Over the past few years,areas in East Asia,North America and northem Europe have been
colder than normal during some periods of winter.This has left many debating whether Earth is
experiencing global warming or not,but scientists have shown that Earth's warming trends are
responsible.
When people in the Northem Hemisphere hear North Pole or Arctic region,they
automatically think of the hemisphere's northem most area,the home of extremely cold weather
during late fall and winter.

During this time,very litle,if any,sunlight reaches the Arctic's stratosphere,one layer of
Earth's atmosphere that exists six to 20 kilometers above Earth's surface.To balance the
temperature difference with that of the wamm equatorial region,an area of low pressure called the
polar vortex (forms and flows in a complete circle around the pole.This occurs inside the
stratosphere about 10 kilometers above the Earth's surfacc.
While this belt of strong winds is usually stable and able to keep the cold air contained,it can
be destroyed by loss of sea ice,due to global warming.This results in surface temperatures
changing,changes which make them less stable.If this happens,the polar vortex may shift,
slipping off the North Pole and moving south,or it can separate into two or three rings that form in
multiple places far south of the pole.
This stretching or distortion (of the polar vortex also makes influence on the path of
the polar jet stream,which is responsible for Earth's weather.This jet stream,along with three
other primary jet streams in different parts of the world,is located in the troposphere(),the
atmospheric layer just below the stratosphere.
The polar jet stream's air currents blow from 177 kilomcters an hour to over 400 kilometers
an hour and from west to east between 50 degrees and 60 degrees latitude-think from France
to Norway.The differences in cold polar air and warm mid-latitude air form the polar jet stream,
and its movement prolongs periods of cold or warm weather in different regions.
Large temperature differences between the Arctic and mid-latitudes cause the polar jet stream
to be strong and move straight,keeping the cold in the north.Because the Arctic is warming at a
fast pace,the temperature difference between it and mid-latitudes is decreasing,making the polar
jet stream slower and weaker.That,in tum,makes the stream more likely to bend north and south.
When it bends far enough,the barrier between Arctic and mid-latitude air can dive down to
Mexico,taking Arctic temperatures along for the ride.
Although heat and cold are considered opposites,in the case of climate,the former can cause
the latter.
+3.Ihe word "prolong"(para 6)is closest in meaning to
A.extend
B.regulate
C.control
D.shorten
44.What is suggested in the passage?
A.Heat and cold are opposite but they can change each other.
B.The air layers above the earth are responsible for climate change.
C.The extreme cold in some areas originated from other areas'heat.
D.The Warming Earth is actually caused by the Colder Winters.
45.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The streams in the Northem Hemisphere have to move to the South.
B.It is certain that the Earth will become warmer and warmer.
C.The temperature difference between day and night will decrease.
D The colder areas might gradually become larger and larger in the future.
46.What is the main focus of the passage?
A.The Relationship between Warming Earth and Colder Winters
B.The Strange Phenomenon of Warming Earth with Colder Winters
C.The Temperature Differences between the Arctic and Mid-latitude Areas
D.The Potential Reasons for Earth Becoming Warmer and Warmer

Section C
Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.
Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
A.It could also reduce misunderstandings since you can hear the emotion in people's voices.
B.As a result,a lot of Airchat users think it offensive when they are using Airchat.
C.Instead of typing posts,users hold the record button on the app and record voice messages.
D.In the future,we may see additional features that make Airchat stand out even more.
E.Airchat users can post a message and the receiver can respond when it's convenient.
Airchat can be used not only for online meetings but also for offline conferences.
Airchat
Is this the next big thing,or is it all just talk?
Imagine a social media app where text takes a back seat and voice takes center stagel That's
the experience Airchat promises.And this new take on social media is shaking things up in the
tech world.
Airchat is an audio-focused social media platform.47 The app then transcribes (
these messages into text so that they can be both heard and read.It's a mix between a podcast and
an X(formerly Twitter)feed.
Many think that Airchat's decision to abandon the text-first messaging model feels fresh.
Hearing the natural tone of someone's voice when they post feels more personal.48What's
more,the app offers an auto play feature,allowing you to listen when you're out and about.
Right now,Airchat is an invite-only app.On a practical level,this makes the app easier to
manage because the user base is limited.But it's also a marketing technique that fuels interest by
making a product feel special.
Some tech writers have noted similarities between Clubhouse,an app popular in 2020,and
Airchat.Both apps are audio-focused,started as invite-only and are mostly popular in the tech
community.But there's a key difference.Clubhouse was about live chat rooms and discussions,
like a collection of online conferences.49 There's no time-sensitive pressure to catch a
conversation from the beginning.
50 Before it adds new features,some writers say that Airchat needs to improve its
content moderation system.The developers expect users to check the content themselves and
remove offending posts using in-app tools.In extreme cases,Airchat employees may remove a
user from the platform.But this system may not be sufficient to keep a large user base under
control.
So,will Airchat blow up or quietly disappear?That remains to be seen,but one thing's for
sure:It's an exciting new voice in the world of online communication.
