B A year ago,Sushila Meena wouldn't have even dreamt of playing with famous sports persons like Sachin Tendulkar.But sometimes dreams that come true are those you never knew you had. TheI0-year-old cricketer(板球手)shot to fame when Tendulkar shared a video of her bowling(投球) action on social media,comparing her to bowler Zaheer Khan,who was the key player in India winning the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup.But her story is much more than just an Instagram post.Sushila's journey from a small village to national fame is a testament to her hard work.And it couldn't have been possible without the support of her coach,Ishwarl Meena. Ishwarl Meena,a dedicated coach,began teaching cricket in June 2017 when the 2017 ICC Women's World Cup was in full swing.He started training girls as a way to connect them with their school and to enable them to excel in women's cricket-where competition is less fierce."If they play cricket,they get connected to the school and come more often,"he explains. He recalls that Sushila joined his free training programme in the third grade.Initially,Sushila was focused on batting,like most other girls,but she soon took on bowling to broaden her skills.Under his guidance,Sushila has refined her technique,following the coach's instruction that bowlers should spin ( the ball."Sushila's bowling became good around 3-4 months ago.I remember last year I thought she wouldn't be able to bowl,but now she has progressed remarkably,"he notes. Sushila comes from a humble background;her father works as a labourer while her mother is a housewife.In her village,due to poor local economic conditions,opportunities for youth are limited.Despite these challenges,Sushila remains committed to pursuing her passion for cricket."I want to play for India one day,"she says with determination.Her dream is to break barriers and pave the way for other girls.from rural areas to take up sports and become excellent. ,4.What made Sushila famous nationwide?

C.Her experience of defeating Zaheer Khan.D.Her cricket skill shown on social media. 5.What is the purpose of Coach Meena training girls in cricket? A.To focus on less competitive sports. B.To prepare for Women's World Cup. C.To train the most talented students. D.To get girls more involved in school. 6.What do we know about Sushila's bowling skills? A.She remains better at batting than bowling.B.She broke her barriers through practice. C.She made steady progress from last year.D.She showed talent at the very beginning. 7.Which words can best describe Sushila Meena? A.Determined and ambitious. B.Curious and courageous. C.Optimistic and intelligent. D.Humble and passionate. C Tell me about what you had for dinner last night.You could give perceptual descriptions of 试卷第2页，共7页 how your food looked and tasted.Or you could focus more on conceptual experiences,such as what that food made you think and feel.A new brain study found that telling the same story different ways activates different memory mechanisms in the listener's brain. Signy Sheldon,a psychologist studying memory at McGill University,and her colleagues asked 35 participants to listen to two versions of the same restaurant story.In the first version,the narrator says, "Food was finally served.I remember the two-foot-long pepper mill the waiter used to season our dishes.My spaghetti noodles were circled around three meatballs on my plate.It looked really good."In the second,he said,"I remember thinking to myself how delicious the spaghetti was.Looking back,I'm not sure if it was because I was starving." When participants recalled the story that they heard with conceptual details in the scanner,their brain hippocampi (activated along with parts of a brain network called the default mode network,or DMN,that is active when processing information about oneself,one's emotions,and more.In contrast,when people recalled perception-heavy stories,the hippocampi activated along with brain networks outside of the DMN,including the left brain region.This area is known to be active when recalling memories that contain details from various senses. Though participants remembered both types of stories equally well in the short term,they tended to prefer the conceptual stories to the perceptual ones and were more confident in their recollections of them. Such preference may be especially true as people get older.Research shows that as people age,they shift away from vivid,event-specific sensory details and toward memories that grasp the main points of what happened,shaping how they remember what they were told.When we're young,"Things are really novel. We're going to pay attention to everything,"Sheldon says."But as we get older,we use memories more for social connection,and we often are recalling and describing things that we are more familiar with." 8.What is the difference between two versions of the same restaurant story? A.The tones of voice. B.The intensity of emotion C.The variety of food. D.The types of description. 9.Which story makes DMNin the brain active? A.The air feels cool on my skin. B.The teddy bear makes me comforted. C.The sunflower is dancing in the wind. D.The coffee smells rich and tastes bitter. 10.What does the underlined word "them"reter to in the last paragraph? A.Conceptual stories.B.Research steps.( C.Social preferences. D.Perceptual details. 11.Which of the following is the best title of the text? A.Stories sharpen your mind B.Storytelling methods count C.You are what you memorize D.Confidence deepens bonding 0 Fishing tools that are thrown away are a serious danger to ocean life.These "ghost nets"continue to catch and kill animals even after being thrown away by fishermen.They either float in the water or sit on the seabed,causing great harm to sea wildlife. The problem is highlighted by a single net found in Puget Sound in 2009.Within just six months,it had already caught over 450 salmon,1,300 sharks,1,800 birds,16,900 crabs,and 11 seals.Scientists believe that 10 to 30 percent of all business fishing tools are lost or thrown away every year.This means countless nets remain in the ocean,killing sea animals nonstop. However,an important program called Fishing for Energy is working to deal with it.It brings together several organizations,including Covanta Energy Company and the National Fish and Wildlife Organization. Since 2008,they have successfully taken away nearly four million pounds of lost fishing tools from the ocean. 试卷第3页，共7页 Collecting lost fishing tools is a difficult task.It requires finding the tools underwater,pulling them up, and bringing them to coast.To make it easier,Fishing for Energy has set up collection sites at ports in nine states.They give free boxes where fishermen can put the recovered tools.The program also offers prizes to fishermen who take away fishing waste from the sea and provides them with free educational programs. Once collected,the tools are recycled to make power for locals.Any metal parts made of materials like gold,silver or iron are taken away,and the materials left are turned into energy at special factories.Thc program has grown rapidly.It started with one disposal site(垃圾处理场)in Massachusetts in2008and now has 55 sites across twelve states.Fishermen are developing new ways to find more tools,and local groups are giving money to workshops to find better solutions.Additionally,the program supports the development of new technology that makes fish-catching tools stop working after a certain period,as required by law. 12.What can we learn from the second paragraph? A.The ghost nets around Puget Sound caught 11 seals in total in 2009. B.A large number of sea animals die because of ghost nets every year. C.The problem caused by ghost nets is less serious than people imagine. D.The ghost nets have covered around 20%of business fishing nets so far. 13.What does the underlined word"recovered"in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A.Used.B.Collected.C.Repaired. D.bought. 14.What do we know about the "Fishing for Energy"program? A.It helps local people to get more power. B.It has 56 waste treatment places in total. C.It requires fishermen to.buy the collection boxes. D.It provides fishermen with new fishing techniques. 15.Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage? A.Ghost Nets:The Silent Killer for Sea Animals B.Fishing for Energy:A Project for Producing Power C.Ghost Nets:The Huge Treasure for Power Production D.Fishing for Energy:A Program for Saving Ocean Life 第二节（共5小题；每小题25分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You don't have to quit sugar,go vegan or run a marathon to see real change in your health and well-being.16 Little nctions,done consistently,are what create lasting change,says Wendy Wood, PhD,psychologist and author of Good Habits,Bad Habits. The secret?It's not willpower.It's not even goals."The best way to turn a small change into a powerful habit is not to focus on your motivation,the reasons why you want to do it or your long-term goals," she says.Nait?Aren't goals supposed to fuel us? "That is what everyone thinks.However,research has shown that making small alterations to the environment,the context in which you perform the behavior,is far more powerful.Goals aren't bad;they certainly have a purpose,but motivation'only lasts for so long,"she says."18 For example,do you think your goal of getting back into the same size jeans you wore in high school will inspire you to hit the gym every day?Nope.What will?"Choose a gym that's close to your house, ideally less than 5 miles.1"Wood says."Even better if you are doing an activity you really enjoy or meeting a good friend there."
