Fauja Singh, 109, who broke marathon records and was called “Superman” before hanging up his running shoes six years ago, will be the subject(主角) of a Bollywood film, Fauja which is mainly about his brilliant career.

Mr. Singh, born in India in 1911, was an enthusiastic running lover in his youth, but gave it up. After a series of personal painful experiences including the deaths of his wife and two of his children, he returned to his former passion in his eighties.      

He moved to the UK soon after and now lives in Ilford, east London. He arrived for his first training session in Redbridge in a three-piece suit, and his first race was the London marathon in 2000. Three years later in Toronto, he broke the world record for the 90-plus. In 2011, when he turned 100, Mr. Singh set eight world records in a day. He ran the 100m in 23.14, then added the 200m, 400m, 800m, 1,500m, the mile, the 3,000m and 5,000m world records. Three of the events had never been attempted by anyone over the age of 100 before. Days later, he became the first centenarian (百岁老人) to complete a marathon, again in Toronto, with a time of 8:25:27.

Mr. Singh retired from competitive running in 2013 but continued jogging for pleasure. When asked about the secret of longevity (长寿), he owed it to a vegetarian diet and avoiding smoking, alcohol and fried food. Of marathon running he said, “The first 20 miles are not difficult. As for the last six miles, I keep talking to myself, ‘Keep it up, old boy!’”

24. What do we know about Fauja Singh?

A. He was first trained in Toronto.

B. He is the inspiration for a movie. 

C. He used to be a professional(专业的) runner.

D. He is still active in competitive running now.

25. What’s the right order(顺序) of the events?

① Fauja moved to the UK.

② Fauja hung up his running shoes.

③ Fauja set 8 world records in a day.

④ Fauja’s wife and two of his children died.

A. ②④①③  B. ④③①②  C. ④①③②  D. ②④③① 

26. What contributes to Mr. Singh’s long life?

   A. His personal tragedies.    B. Smoking less. 

C. His passion for marathon.       D. His healthy lifestyle.

27. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Fauja Singh Turns 109    B. The Retirement of A Lifelong Runner

C. The Birth of a Bollywood Superstar  D. A Centenarian Runner

C

Video calls are a common approach to connecting each other, but have you imagined being able to touch the person on the other end of the line? Scientists are making this a reality.  

Researchers at the University of New South Wales, Australia, have invented a soft skin stretch device (SSD), a haptic (触觉的) device that can recreate the sense of touch. Haptic technology can copy the experience of touch by stimulating (刺激) the skin through force, vibration (震动) or motion.

Vibration is the most common haptic technology today and has been built into many electronic devices, such as one attached to the back of a trackpad (触控板) in laptops. However, haptic feedback with vibration becomes less sensitive when the trackpad is used continuously. The existing technology also has great difficulty recreating the sense of touch with objects in virtual environments or located remotely.

The new technology overcomes issues with existing haptic devices. The research team introduced a novel method to recreate the sense of touch through soft, artificial “muscles”. 

It works like this: imagine you call a friend in Australia. You wear a haptic glove with the SSDs and your friend also wears a glove with 3D force sensors. If your friend picks up an object, it will physically press against your friend’s fingers. And the glove with 3D force sensors will measure these interactions. The force signals can be sent to your glove so your device will generate the same 3D forces, making you experience the same sense of touch as your friend.

SSD could be used in various fields, allowing users to feel objects inside a virtual world or at a distance. This could be especially beneficial during such times like the COVID-19 pandemic when people rely on video calls to stay connected with loved ones. Or it could be used in medical practices. Doctors could feel a patient’s organ tissues without touching them.

28. According to the text, SSD can ________.

A. improve skin health    B. recall earlier experiences

C. recreate the sense of touch   D. be used as the trackpad in laptops

29. Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________.

A. how SSD works     B. what advantages SSD has

C. how vibration can be used   D. what problems the current technology has

30. In which situation can we use SSD according to the text?

A. Tasting a dish on the video call.

B. Enjoying classical music at home.

C. Admiring beautiful scenery online.

D. Performing a distant medical operation.

31. In which section of a newspaper can we find this text?

A. Science.  B. Entertainment.  C. Education.  D. Health.

D

One of the tallest wooden buildings in Europe, a 98m timber (木材) mixture skyscraper(摩天大楼), is to rise in Berlin.    

The 29-storey WoHo tower, to be designed by a firm of Norwegian architects, is intended to be a “light-house project” for low-carbon(低碳), towering over Potsdamer Platz and the Landwehr Canal.  

Its core(芯), including lifts and a staircase, is to be built around a steel-reinforced (加固)  concrete structure but the rest of the building, including flats, offices, cafes and a kindergarten, will be fashioned down wooden beams (横梁) and panels.

“As Norwegians, we are used to working a lot with timber,” Nicolai Riise, CEO of the Mad Architects’ Practice said.  

“The thing about timber is that its carbon footprint is close to zero and that it’s a fantastic material to build with. If you look at this in a broader way, it’s one of the ways we are going to be able to beat the climate crisis.”  

Wooden skyscrapers, once regarded as a pipe dream, have become realistic(现实) with the coming of cross-laminated (交叉叠合) building techniques. Because these structures’ parts are fit with care, they can be far lighter than their concrete equivalents (同等物) and are thought to be relatively resistant to fire. A cubic meter of wood can also take an estimated ton of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

Larger wooden structures are planned elsewhere. London is examining blueprints for a 300-meter Oakwood Tower. A project in Tokyo could rise to 350m.

32. What is special about the WoHo Tower?

A. It will serve as a light house.

B. Its core is to be built with timber.

C. It is designed for a Norwegian firm.

D. It will be a tall timber mixture building.

33. What does Nicolai Riise say about timber?

   A. It used to be a good choice.    B. It is easy to collect.

C. It is environmentally-friendly.        D. The broader type works better.

34. What do the underlined words “a pipe dream” in paragraph 6 probably mean?

A. A nightmare.       B. Something practical.

C. A piece of cake.      D. Something impossible. 

35. What makes it a reality to build wooden skyscrapers?

A. Flexible ideas.                B. The concrete equivalents.

C. Fire resistant materials.               D. New building techniques.

 With the plenty of children not going into school at the moment, staff, parents and pupils are pulling together on the internet to make sure their education is a success. As a teacher, I’d like to give some tips to parents and pupils on further learning.

FOR PUPILS

Get online, on time.

Make sure you do log on in good time for the beginning of live lessons, rather than joining the lesson ten minutes in.    36  

Play your part.

Contribute to the lesson. Talk, put your hand up, send messages in the chat—whatever they might be. Teachers and other pupils love to see that. And don’t be afraid to ask questions.

Take proper screen breaks during the day.

Enjoy your break time.    37    Get outside, read a book, phone someone. At break or lunchtime in school you wouldn’t sit in a classroom and continue to work, so you shouldn’t do it at home either.

FOR PARENTS

   38    

It’s often surprising how technologically able a young child is now, with the world of smart phones and the Internet. So let them show you what they need to be doing in class.

Give praise.

   39    Now online, we share a lot of praise and give out school awards. They also need to be praised at home for getting their work done. Take a look at what they have been doing.

Join it if you can.

This might be difficult for parents doing full-time jobs, but try to work together on something. We assign students research projects, some of which might be challenging to them.

   40    And it’s also good for their own well-being, getting away from a laptop to make a cardboard castle or whatever it might be.

A. Let the child lead you.

B. Keep up with technology.

C. Don’t stay sitting at your computer.

D. That’s a perfect opportunity for parents to help.

E. Thus you will find the rest of the class challenging.

F. Otherwise you would have missed out on some teaching.

G. At school kids are getting positive words for the work they are doing well.
