However, doubts and fears often hold us back. How can we face them and succeed? The runner Su Bingtian gives an excellent answer to this question. The young man began his sporting life in 2006. At that time, no one from Asia had ever run the 100m race in less than 10 seconds. Su trained hard and quickly became one of the fastest runners in Asia. In 2011, he ran the race in 10.16 seconds. However, Su wasn’t satisfied. To run in under 10 seconds, in 2014, he changed his starting leg. This was a very risky decision. He had to start from zero. At first, he was slower than before. Also, he was 25 years old. At such an age, many runners choose to stop running. People doubted his decision. However, Su fought his fears and became a sporting hero. In 2015, he clocked 9.99 seconds and made history. In 2021, he finished in 9.83 seconds at the Tokyo Olympics. He also became the first Chinese athlete to run in the Olympic 100m final. Su Bingtian has told youngsters, “Never let your age hold you back. Have a try and try harder. I believe you can write your own story.” Nothing is impossible as long as you try and stick to it. Everyone can be a Superman! 26. How old was Su Bingtian when he started his sporting life? A. 17 years old. B. 19 years old. C. 25 years old. D. 26 years old. 27. What can we infer from Su Bingtian’s decision to change his starting leg at the age of 25? A. He was slower than all other Asian runners at that time. B. He was brave enough to take risks and face challenges. C. Most runners at the age of 25 would try new training methods. D. He immediately became faster after changing his starting leg. 28. What does the underlined word “clocked” mean in Paragraph 4? A. spent B. lasted C. recorded D. kept 29. What message does Su Bingtian try to send to young people in the last paragraph? A. Don’t be afraid of fears and doubts. B. Age isn’t the key to success in sports. C. Everyone should be a hero on something. D. Nothing is impossible if we keep trying hard. （B） When you finally finish your work and get to relax, what do you do? Do you lie on your bed and run your finger through your phone? Many people find that this kind of entertainment only brings boredom and emptiness. Different from what many people may think, playing isn’t just wasting time. Having the ability to play and relax meaningfully during your leisure time is important. “Leisure doesn’t improve the quality of life unless you know how to make good use of it.” James Wallman, the writer of Time and How to Spend It explains that some experiences are “junk experiences” while others are like “superfoods”. He also points out that “superfood” activities help you live in the present and achieve a higher leisure quotient (LQ, 玩商). LQ is an index (指数) used to describe one’s ability to relax and play. A high LQ usually means that a person has good control over his life, and knows how to keep a balanced lifestyle that makes him healthier and happier, according to China Daily. Research shows that people with high LQ scores feel happier and generally avoid being down and other mental illnesses. At the same time, another famous scientist also points out that those who can play will succeed. Instead of doing passive activities like watching short videos, people with high LQ scores choose active activities that suit their interests, giving them continuous positive reflections. According to Wallman, examples of these positive reflections include: an unforgettable story you can share with others, a new skill, a different world view, improved relationships and so on. 30. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______. A. life B. leisure C. the phone D. the book 31. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. When is the best time to play? B. Why should we use leisure time properly? C. What are “superfood” activities? D. How can we live in the present meaningfully? 32. Which of the following is true according to the passage? (SH= sense of happiness) A. B. C. D. 33. After the last paragraph, the writer will probably ______ . A. encourage us to improve LQ B. share some people’s LQ scores C. write about some passive activities D. tell us the importance of “superfoods” （C） Reality TV is very popular in the UK. These programmes give us a good look into the lives of different people in Britain. Also, they are a very cheap way to make programmes. Here are some of them. Strictly Come Dancing In the show some famous people learn to dance with a professional dancer. Four professional dance experts give them scores and comment on their dances. After that, the public vote for their favorite couple. The two least favorite have to dance again and judges decide who stays in the competition and who leaves. Come Dine with me Each week four people prepare dinner in their home for the other players. Each player then gives the cook a grade out of 10 for the food. The winner gets £ 1,000. Sometimes the food is terrible and the players are very rude to each other. World’s Strictest Parents Badly behaved British teens are sent abroad to live with a super strict family for a week. The teenagers have to follow the rules of their host family and go to the local school. After seven days the teenagers return home and their parents tell us whether their behavior is better or not. This show is full of crying and shouting but it can be worth watching, too. Shattered A group of young people live in a house for a week and must stay awake. Each day there are tests to see how well they can work even though they are totally tired out. They must leave the house if they fall asleep. Viewers vote on those who stay in the house and text their comments every day. 34. In which programme do the public vote for their favourite couple? A. Strictly Come Dancing. B. Come Dine with Me. C. World’s Strictest Parents. D. Shattered. 35. What does the underlined word “Dine” mean? A. To grade. B. To taste. C. To eat. D. To cook. 36. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. It usually cost less money to make Reality TV. B. Not all the food is delicious in Come Dine with Me. C. Some teens dislike their host family’s rules. D. You will have to leave Shattered if you feel really tired. （D） Parents often tell us to tidy our bedrooms, and teachers always ask us to keep our desks neat. Although they mean well, a new book by economist Tim Harford argues that being messy can actually be good for us. This is because a lot of the things that we value such as creativity and fast-thinking come from mess. One example is mess in the workplace. Tim studied how people work, comparing ‘pilers’ (those who keep piles of paper on their desks) to ‘filers’ (those who prefer an organized system). He found that the filers often put things away too soon, leading to desk drawers full of rubbish. With the pilers, on the other hand, the useless documents naturally sank to the bottom of their desk and eventually got thrown out. They were managing their work much more efficiently and getting more stuff done. Scientists have also shown that when we’re interrupted, distracted or meet a difficulty, it can encourage creative thinking. So if you’re working on a tricky problem at your messy desk and suddenly need to stop to find an important piece of paper or a calculator, this (stop) can free your mind and help you to solve the problem. What’s more, those brief stops also free you to listen more carefully to others. Of course messiness is not always helpful. There are lots of situations where order is important. If a task needs to be done very quickly or in a careful order then messiness can actually be harmful. A doctor operating on a seriously ill patient doesn’t have time to look for a surgical knife. The patient may die! But in most circumstances mess is undervalued. We hardly ever think it is a suitable way, and we don’t give it enough of a chance. We all think, “If only I could get tidier, I’d get more done.” But I don’t think we would - life is messy, and we should accept that. So how can we introduce a little helpful messiness into our lives? Firstly, let paper build up on your desk-what finds its way to the top is the important stuff. Secondly, force yourself into situations where you’re uncomfortable, such as meeting new people, trying a new activity or visiting an unfamiliar place. And thirdly, when there is too much mess just throw a lot of it away. You’re often better off simplifying rather than trying to introduce a system. 37. What is the difference between ‘pilers’ and ‘filers’ office workers according to Tim Harford’s study? A. ‘Pilers’ are untidy but get more work done. B. ‘Filers’ are tidy and get more work done. C. ‘Pilers’ are tidy but get less work done. D. ‘Filers’ are untidy and get less work done. 38. How can being untidy help people to be more creative according to the passage? A. The mess creates more problems that people need to solve. B. The time people use looking for something gives them opportunity to think. C. It forces people to pay more attention to the most important issues. D. Looking for something can give people’s brain a rest. 39. In paragraph 4, the writer refers to a doctor performing an operation to show ______. A. why messiness at work can sometimes be helpful B. a situation where neatness and order are necessary C. how too much order can actually be harmful D. an example where mess can help creative thinking 40. What is the benefit of keeping all your papers on your desk according to the last paragraph? A. You will have more time to do important work. B. The mess will help you come up with a new solution. C. You avoid the risk of accidentally throwing out something important. D. The most useful papers will eventually rise to the top. 第二节 阅读填空（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据短文内容，选出适当的句子补全短文，使短文意思通顺，内容完整。 Do you often drink fruit juice and think it is good for your health? However, a recent study published in a US medical journal（期刊）shows that drinking too much juice—even 100-percent natural fruit juice—will increase your risk of early death. ____41____ According to scientists, drinking too much fruit juice is just like drinking too much soda（汽水）—they both have a lot of sugar Taking in too much sugar can cause many health problems, such as weight problems, heart disease（病）and so on. Some people might say there are also vitamins（维生素）in fruit juice. ____42____ In the study. “sugary drinks” were defined（定义）to include both sugar-sweetened（添加糖的）drinks like soda and 100-percent natural fruit juice. Scientists found that if people get 10-percent or more of their energy from sugary drinks every day, they will be 44-percent more likely to die from heart disease. ____43____ As Jean Welsh, one of the researchers in the study, told CNN, “Sugary drinks, whether soft drinks or fruit juice, should be limited（限制）.” ____44____ In this way, fewer people will buy sugary drinks because of their higher prices. But how much is acceptable? Here are the suggestions from scientists. ____45____Adults and children older than 6 should not drink more than 230 ml every day. A. Also, they are 14-percent more likely to die from other diseases. B. That is why some cities in the US have increased prices of sugary drinks. C. This is mainly because these drinks have a lot of sugar. D. Kids between I and 6 years old should drink less than 170 ml of fruit juice every day. E. But the amount is too small to make up for the harm that these drinks do. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共30分） 四、写作（共三节；满分30分） 第一节 语篇填词（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读短文，根据上下文和所给的首字母写出所缺单词。注意使用正确形式，每空限填一词。答卷时，要求写出完整单词。 Mike is interested in space and always imagines exciting adventures among the stars.
