“Study trains” provide “study carriage” for passengers A slow train NO. 5609/5610 which runs between Chongqing and Xiushan county has attracted much attention. In some carriages, seats have been replaced with desk and chairs close to the windows to transform it into a “study carriage” for passengers in need. The Chinese characters “Yu Yue” appear on the train, which translates to “traveling and reading happily”. Other inspirational slogans(激励标语) can be seen throughout the carriages. _____________ Wearing his bright red armband and speaking fluent Mandarin(普通话), 62 year-old Gao Tianrui could be taken for any regular Chinese man. But on a closer look, things are not quite what they seem. Gao’s real name is Terry and he is from the United States. Having lived in Beijing for more than 20 years, Terry Crossman has finally made his Chinese dream: becoming a public volunteer. Life as a “Xicheng Dama” has even made him an online hit. “I like helping others,” he said. “I live in the hutong and my neighbors and I usually help each other… This is where I live, where my friends are and where I call home.” Left-behind children didn’t leave behind phones A recent report by a research center on rural(乡村的) issues at Wuhan University shows that 90 percent of left-behind children in China’s rural areas spend a long time on smartphones every day: nearly 70 percent are hooked on short videos and 30 percent are playing online games. In some extreme cases, a child was found playing games without sleep for five days. More than half the students in the sixth grade spent more than 10 hours on their phones during weekends. As a result, children’s physical fitness, learning abilities and interests have all declined, the report said.

A. THE SCIENCE B. THE SPORTS DESK C. ANIMAL WORLD D. CHINA VOICES
32. The meaning behind “Yu Yue” on the train should be ________.
A. to make people feel at home B. to inspire the readers to travel and read happily
C. to help people to keep calm D. to give the readers a clean carriage
33. What would be the best heading for the second piece of news
A. An American Meets Xicheng Dama in Bejing.
B. An American in Beijing Lives His Chinese Dream.
C. A Special Volunteer Is An Online Hit.
D. Americans Living in Hutong.
34. Most of the left-behind children are interested in ________.
A. short videos B. online games
C. online learning D. physical fitness
35. What do all the news above have in common
A. They bring happiness to people.
B. They help people to know more about our life.
C. They are used for attracting travelers.
D. They give hope to people.
B
A month before my first marathon, I hurt one of my ankles and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I decided to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher asked us to run and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later told me that I was not an athlete.
The idea that I was not an athlete influenced me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!
The night before my marathon, I dreamed that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces became untied. Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!”
By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. But I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
As I got closer to mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the last runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Make a decision to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels. I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.
36. A month before the marathon, the author ________.
A. was well trained for two months B. felt too scared to sleep
C. made up his mind to run D. lost hope in finising the game
37. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year
A. To introduce his favorite teacher.
B. To surprise the readers with a funny story.
C To show he was not talented in sports.
D. To share a wonderful memory.
38. The underlined sentence “Not the start I wanted!” in (Para 5) most probably shows that the author was ________.
A. worried B. satisfied C. angry D. understanding
39. What does the story mainly tell us
A. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. B. A winner is one with a great will.
C. Failure is the mother of success. D. One is never too old to learn.
40. The best title of the passage could be ________
A. My First Marathon. B. My First P.E Teacher.
C. The Fastest Runner. D. A Successful Athlete.
C
In sunny California, Craig Rogers was sitting on his surfboard. His board suddenly stopped moving. He looked down and saw a great white shark biting（咬）the front of his board. “I could have touched its eye with my hands,” says Craig. He waved his arms and accidentally cut two of his fingers on the shark’s teeth. He got off the surfboard, into the water. Then, with Craig in the water, blood flowing from his fingers, the five-meter-long shark simply swam away.
Over a hundred shark attacks（鲨鱼袭击）happen each year. Of these, one third are said to be great white attacks. As a result, great whites are often called “man-eaters” and thought to hunt and kill humans. However, this is not true. In fact, a person has a greater chance of being killed by lightning（闪电） than by a great white. With around 300 teeth, a great white could very easily kill a person. Yet, surprisingly, most great white victims（受害者） live to tell the story. Shark researchers are trying to comprehend（理解）the reasons great whites attack people, and why most of those people can keep alive.
One of the most common explanations for great white attacks is that great whites don’t see well. It’s thought that they often mistake a person for a seal or a sea lion, But there is reason to doubt his. Some research now shows that great whites can see very well. When attacking seals or sea lions, great whites bite with great force. However, when they attack humans, they often move in slowly and bite less hard. “They take a bite, feel them over, then move on.” says Peter Klimley, author of The Secret Lives of Sharks.
Some shark experts like Klimley think that great whites “attack” because they are curious（好奇的）animals. They believe that it’s possible that great whites use their bite not just to kill and eat, but also to collect information. According to this idea, once a great white knows what it is biting, it simply lets go.
Even though such experiences are unlucky for people like Craig Rogers, perhaps when sharks bite surfboards, other objects, or even people, they are likely just trying to learn what they are.
41. After Craig Rogers fell into the water ________.
A. the shark swam away B. the shark attacked him
C. the shark bit his fingers D. the shark bit his surfboard
42. According to the author, it is difficult to understand why great whites ________.
A. like to kill humans B. have so many teeth
C. often let humans get away D. grow to six meters or more
43. What is the purpose of the third paragraph
A. To explain why great whites don’t see well.
B. To describe how great whites hunt for seals.
C. To provide advice on what to do if you see a great white.
D. To give possible reasons why great whites don’t kill humans.
44. Which of the following words is the closest in meaning to doubt
A. be interested in B. be uncertain about C. be worried about D. be afraid of
45. The writer mainly wants us to know ________.
A. how to get away from a shark B. how great whites collect information
C. why great whites learn what they are D. why great whites attack people

【答案】例文：
Be a Volunteer
Being ready to help others is a traditional virtue in China. How can I help others
I’d like to volunteer in an old people’s home. I’m good at telling stories and singing songs, so I can share some stories to make the old laugh. When I see the look of joy on their faces, I can get a strong feeling of happiness. What’s more, I can help them with some housework, such as sweeping the floor and making the bed. I’m free to help them in July and August, because I don’t need to go to school in these two months.
