Running has been an essential part for Barnes.She has so far run many halfmarathons and four full marathons."I can say my life is definitely better,not only for getting mentally and physically healthy but for meeting incredible people along,"Barnes said of her experience with running Although it wasn't her first marathon,Barnes said the NYC Marathon was still a challenging run.

Unlike its past counterparts,the new glove is lightweight,inexpensive and long-lasting.The device could help remove communication barriers between signers and non-signers.Hopefully,this may open up an easy way for people who use sign language to communicate directly with non-signers without needing someone else to translate for them The team worked with four people who are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up to 15 times while wearing the glove-like device,simultaneously teaching a machine how to recognize them The glove has thin,stretchable sensors made from "electrically conducting yarns"that run up 第5页/共12页 each finger and convert the movements into signals.These signals are sent to a "dollar-coin-sized" circuit board placed on the person's wrist,which then wirelessly transfers them over to a smartphone The system was able to recognize 660 hand motions and finger placements that stand for each letter in the English alphabet,.different phrases and each number.The algorithm(计算程序) recognized the correct signs about 99%of the time,and in less than one second-or about a tone word per second. The researchers also placed sensors in between the participants eyebrows and on the sides of their mouths to "capture facial expressions that are a part of ASL".The same exact hand-shape and movement can totally change meaning because of the facial expression that is used to accompany it. Take the word MUCH.The degree of how much can totally be determined by the facial expression alone while the sign stays the same. Researchers said the glove would need to learn more vocabulary and be able to translate signs faster in order to get a commercial version ofit in stores. 28.Who is the new glove intended for? A.Translators. B.Deaf people. C English learners. D.Sign language users. 29.What does Paragraph 4 mainly say about the new glove? A.Its reliability B.Its components C.Its working principle D.Its broad applications. 30.How do researchers improve the glove's correctness of recognition? A.By connecting it to smartphones. B.By catching information from more angles C.By lengthening the time of catching gestures.D.By inputting more letters and words in English. 31.What will researchers do with the glove in the future? A.Bring it to market. B.Update its outlook. C.Extend its service life. D.Improve its performance. D Chinese food is well received by the world.Who doesn't long for a favorite Chinese dish?But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West,and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East-the ancient custom of tonic 第6页/共12页 补)food”, Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one's well-being or avoid sickness.For instance,it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame oil (hot pot every day for the first month after giving birth.It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles,reduce pain, improve circulation,stimulate sweating,and warm the body.Some foods,such as goat meat and spinach,are seen as "hot",while others,such as Chinese cabbage and radishes,are seen as "cold" One should be careful not to eat too much of either "hot"or"cold"food.However,how much "hot" or"cold"food one should eat depends on the time of the year,how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with,and the individual's health. The custom of employing tonic food for a healthier life also influences the catering industry. Chinese herbal medicines,such as wolfberry ()can be found on many a restaurant menu,either added to fiuit tea or as a beneficial addition to a dish.These herbs attract customers,such as overworked office staff,in need of a modest pick-me-up. So,whether you need to boost your strength with a large helping of chicken soup,or increase your mental powers with a serving of fish soup,you may find that this ancient Chinese custom could be just the tonic you were looking for. 32.What is the present situation of tonic food? A.It is catching less attention. B.It is enjoyed by many young people C.It is well-known worldwide. D.It is becoming increasingly popular. 33.What is believed to benefit new mothers? A.Chinese cabbage. B.Fruit tea. C.Fish soup. D.Sesame oil hot pot. 34.Which of the following best explains"catering"underlined in Paragraph 3? A.Medicine. B.Restaurant. C.Manufacture. D.Agriculture. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.The Charm of Chinese Cuisine B.The Popularity ofTonic Food C.An Introduction of Chinese Tonic Food D Differences Between Hot Food and Cold Food 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 第7页/共12页 Cleaning your room can feel like a challenging task,but it's likely a quicker and easier process than you imagine!Sometimes all it takes is a simple plan and a little motivation.36 Read on to learn how to stay motivated to clean your room Play music to get in the right mindset.Before you start,put on a playlist that makes you feel energetic.37 Music with a faster beat will help motivate you.Stay away from slower music,as this can make you feel tired and bored.If you need a timer,create a playlist that is a certain amount of time and try to finish before the playlist ends.
