As he was driving along Golf Course Road in the northern Indian city of Noida, near New Delhi, he spotted a kid racing along in the dead of night. Kapri was alarmed at first—it was late and he was running so fast. So he slowed down and opened a window. The boy turned out to be 19-year-old Pradeep Mehra, who had just finished his work at McDonald’s and was returning home. Once it was evident that nothing was wrong, Kapri offered to drop the teen home, but Mehra politely turned him down and, without missing a beat, kept on running. Surprised by his refusal, Kapri took out his cellphone and started filming their conversation because he could tell that there must be a story behind the midnight run. Mehra explained that he fell into the habit of running at midnight to keep fit so that he could achieve his dream of joining the army to serve his country. Kapri said the conversation left him deeply in awe of young Pradeep Mehra. When asked if his regular midnight run was ever disturbed by cars, Mehra said, “I haven’t had too much of a problem with cars. But people are a different story! My midnight running habit does make people curious. Many have stopped to ask me why I run at this time of night, while others have made fun of me. There’s a lot of sarcasm (讥讽) too—I am warned that running like this will only get me chased by dogs. No matter what others say, I just smile at them. I’ve always believed that hard work has its own rewards, and that one day, I will reach my goal and succeed.” Kapri came to help but instead left inspired. After asking permission to post the video, Kapri uploaded the recording, a little over 2 minutes, to his Twitter account. Kapri’s ending caption—“Run Pradeep run, to your brighter destiny”—touched many viewers. (　)1.Why did Kapri chat with Mehra at first? A.He was eager to give Mehra a ride back home. B.He had a desire to film the story behind Mehra. C.He thought the boy encountered some difficulties. D.He aimed to warn Mehra of the dangers of running fast. (　)2.What do we know about Mehra’s regular midnight run? A.It encouraged others to run with him. B.It frequently affected Mehra’s part-time job. C.It sometimes interrupted the steady flow of traffic. D.It received some unpleasant attention from passers-by. (　)3.Which of the following can best describe Mehra? A.Strict and honest. B.Brave and outgoing. C.Adventurous and innovative. D.Devoted and determined. (　)4.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Nightly midnight run by an Indian teen B.The story about a chance encounter C.A special bond with a running boy D.The wide spread of a recording ●Ⅴ 阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) [2025·江西宜春高二期中] Once a niche (小众的) sport, rock climbing has become a mainstream pleasure enjoyed by many. 1.　　　　 However, with rock climbing’s rise in popularity, the amazing biodiversity sustained by cliff ecosystems is under pressure. To relieve this problem, there are numerous helpful acts you can do.  The presence of climbers at the cliff where birds are nesting can cause them to abandon their chicks to starvation. You should check if there are any bird nesting restrictions in the areas where you plan to climb. 2.　　　　 And some organizations have an online database you can check.  Sometimes climbers also remove plants and soil when establishing a route that has not been climbed before so that it becomes more suitable for climbing. 3.　　　　 Work with other route developers and conservationists to understand the potential impact of route development on the plants.  4.　　　　 In the early days, climbers often collected data about the species and geography they encountered as part of an adventure. It is now much easier to contribute to science as a climber. Much of this comes down to the fact that each of us carries a tiny computer that can smoothly capture images, location, and sound and associate them with a timestamp—our smartphones!  Actually, in many places, climber representative bodies are taking great steps to ensure climbing is managed sustainably. This involves cooperating with the authorities of natural parks and conservation organizations so that agreements can be reached that minimize the impact of climbing on the environment while keeping regulations to a minimum. These organizations often have limited funds with which to achieve these goals and tend to rely on the support of volunteers. 5.　　　　   A.You can help by becoming a citizen scientist. B.This information is usually available in climbing guidebooks. C.This can wipe out the cliff ecosystem that was there previously. D.Why not get in touch with one that inspires you and ask what you can do? E.Keeping existing routes in good condition avoids the damage to vegetation. F.These data can then be accessed by scientists to avoid environmental issues on cliffs. G.The natural world offers an exciting adventure through beautiful environments filled with wildlife. ●Ⅵ 语法填空(每小题1.5分,满分15分) [2026·河南周口高二月考] Billed as one of the most scenic (风景优美的) and most demanding marathons in the world, the Great Wall Marathon is the oldest of its type, beginning in 1999, with 1.　　　　 (option) for fun runs and half marathons as well as the full marathon.

So he slowed down and opened a window.”以及“Once it was evident that nothing was wrong…”可知,卡普里一开始和梅赫拉聊天是因为他认为梅赫拉遇到了困难。故选C项。 2.D　细节理解题。根据第四段的句子“Many have stopped to ask me why I run at this time of night, while others have made fun of me. There’s a lot of sarcasm (讥讽) too—I am warned that running like this will only get me chased by dogs.”可知,梅赫拉经常在午夜跑步时受到来自路人的一些不愉快的关注。故选D项。 3.D　推理判断题。根据第三段的句子“Mehra explained that he fell into the habit of running at midnight to keep fit so that he could achieve his dream of joining the army to serve his country.”可知,梅赫拉对国家忠诚;根据第四段的句子“No matter what others say, I just smile at them.
