With sports playing a central role in the United States, it’s no ____16____ that the Americans use sports-related sayings to describe their ____17____ lives. Let’s  take a look.
The sport of horseracing ____18____ a range of sayings. A close race is won by the horse whose nose is the first to cross the finish line. To win by a nose has grown to mean “to succeed by the smallest possible margin( 差 距 ).” ____19____, a winning horse is the first horse to show as crossing under a cord( 绳 子 ) or a wire that is stretched ( 伸 展 ) above the finish line. Down to the wire means “not decided until the last minute.” The last section of a horserace is called the home stretch. The home stretch has come to mean “the final stage of an activity.” And if a racehorse is far ahead in a race and clearly going to win, the jockey (赛马的骑师) will sometimes relax and lower his tight grip on the reins (缰绳). From that we get win hands down, which means “win easily.”
A．between      B．willing to      C．failure      D．also       E. looking forward to
Boxing also has given some colorful phrases. The boxing ring’s square shape gives us the phrase to square off, meaning “to prepare for competition.” A boxer who competes in every round in a boxing match is described as going the distance. That phrase ____20____ means “completing a task.” A boxer’s corner man stands outside his corner and assists him____21____ rounds. Today, someone who is in your corner  is someone who is “ready and ____22____ help” you. A boxer who needs to  hang onto the boxing ring’s ropes to stay on his feet is probably losing the match. On the ropes today describes a situation in which someone is “doing badly and headed toward ____23____.” And if a trainer is concerned that continuing a boxing match will only result in serious injuries to his boxer, he can throw a towel or a sponge into the ring. It is a signal to the referee that he wants to end the fight.  Throw in the towel means “give up” or “admit defeat.”

【解析】32．句意：孩子们去年读了不少英语杂志。
根据句子中的时间状语“last year”以及实义动词“read”，此句子是含有实义动词的一般过去时，所以，变疑问句时，要借助did。在一般过去时的句子中，以did开头的句子已经代表句子是过去时，后面的动词，就要用原形。故答案为Did read。

八、阅读回答问题

Sun Ruifeng, a mother in Beijing, changed some of her plans for her 8-year-old son’s summer vacation. She looked for an English training course, but in the end, she changed it to a swimming training class.
“Due to the stricter regulations (规定) on subject-training classes, many parents like me choose sports or other projects for developing interests instead,” Sun said.
Sun’s choice is part of the result of the government’s growing efforts to lighten the academic pressure on young students.
On July 24 last year, Chinese government introduced a guideline (意见) to ease the burden (负担) of excessive homework and off-campus training for primary and junior high school students. It lists requirements in areas such as reducing the amount and the difficulty of homework and improving the quality of education and after-class services provided by schools.
For example, homework for children below the third grade is not allowed, while homework for junior high school students should take no longer than 90 minutes to finish.
According to the guideline, training institutions (机构) cannot teach students content that is too advanced for the school curriculum. No training courses can be taught on weekends, national holidays or during winter and summer vacations.
According to Global Times, more than 75 percent of Chinese urban children, from Grade 1 to Grade 12, are enrolled in training programs. However, some training institutions take part in anxiety marketing, selling unnecessary programs that increase the burden on students.
Many parents showed their support for the new moves. “Subject learning is enough at school and we hope to improve the children’s overall quality of life during holidays.” a parent surnamed (姓) Zhou in Guangzhou told Xinhua.
However, there are also some concerns. A parent surnamed Chen in Shanxi said that although she agreed on new moves, she worried about ________.
At present, nine cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenyang and Guangzhou, have been selected to carry out the guideline. It will later be rolled out nationwide.

【导语】本文介绍了“双减”政策落地的原因、政策规定及家长反应。
58．根据“She looked for an English training course, but in the end, she changed it to a swimming training class.”可知，孙瑞峰最后给儿子选了游泳训练课。故填Yes, she did.
59．根据“It lists requirements in areas such as reducing the amount and the difficulty of homework”可知，该指导意见要求小学和初中都要减少家庭作业的量和难度。故填It requires primary and junior high schools to reduce the amount and the difficulty of homework.
60．根据“For example, homework for children below the third grade is not allowed,”可知，三年级以下的孩子们不需要在家庭作业上花费时间。故填Zero.
61．根据“According to the guideline, training institutions (机构) cannot teach students content that is too advanced for the school curriculum.”可知，一些培训机构通过出售不必要的课程来增加学生的负担。故填Some training institutions.
62．根据“Subject learning is enough at school and we hope to improve the children’s overall quality of life during holidays.”可知，许多家长支持这一新举措是因为他们希望在假期期间提高孩子们的整体生活质量。故填Because they think subject learning is enough at school and they hope to improve the children’s overall quality of life during holidays.
63．根据“she worried about”可知此处补充出“双减”政策令家长担忧的地方即可（答案不唯一，言之有理即可）。故填they couldn’t help their kids if they have problems academically。

Dear Li Hua, How’s everything going? We haven’t seen each other since we met last. I’m a little worried these days. As you know, I’ve been learning Chinese for two years, but I’ m not good at it.
