I’m 52, and as surprising as it may seem. I’m a gymnast. In a sprt fr yung girls, I have fund an unlikely path t jy. When I enter the gym, n matter hw much stress I might be feeling, my mind clears and I frget my life. I think f nthing but what I am ding.
When I was 9, I went every Saturday t a gymnastic academy. The cach had gray hair and wre ballet shes and had bundless enthusiasm. He wuld say, “Yu are ging t be a gymnast.” And I believed him. I vividly remember the first time I did a rundff back handspring by myself, the weightlessness f it. I lived fr Saturday mrnings. I nly ever did gymnastics recreatinally—I didn’t even knw real gyms existed—but I always lved it.
That lng drmant (蛰伏的) lve came raring back in my frties. It happened in an instant, at parents’ day fr my daughter’s beginning gymnastics class. The bars were just sitting there, and I had this verwhelming urge t grab hld and swing. But I culdn’t make it thrugh the warmup (热身运动) at the first adult class I went. I felt bad during cnditining. I was the ldest persn there. But that spark f memry glwed with pssibility. I went back t class again, and again. It was hard and it was humbling. But sn I was ding back handsprings like I used t.
There is nthing like the thrill f getting a new skill, that cmbinatin f speed, mechanics, timing, muscles, guts. There is an ineffable (不可言喻的) element, t, smething like faith. By the time we reach middle age, mst f us have had t deal with ur fair share f unwelcme surprises, like illness, family crisis r the death f a belved parent. But gymnastics has brught the mst delightful surprises-I keep getting better, surpassing what I thught were limits, amazing myself by what I can d. At a time in life when many things feel like they are sliding dwn the slpe twards ld, gymnastics is a gift f fluency and cmpetence in mtin. I’m in the best shape f my life. I’m a better gymnast nw than I was at 16.
24. What inspired the authr t lve gymnastics when she was yung?
A. Her Saturday rutine.B. The cach’s enthusiasm.
C. Her wish t be a gymnast.D. Pleasure frm gymnastics.
25. What made the authr g back t gymnastic classes in her frties?
A. Her duty as a respnsible parent.
B. The desire t fit in with her daughter.
C. The strng urge t play with the bars.
D. Her sweet memry f ding gymnastics.
26. Which f the fllwing can describe the authr’s persnality?
A. Faithful and easyging.B. Humble and cmpetent.
C. Passinate and persistent.D. Ambitius and cnsiderate.
27. What des the text mainly talk abut?
A. The dream f a fitness wmanB. A middle-aged persn’s pursuit.

Tp figure skaters spin at such unbelievably fast speeds—as many as six revlutins per secnd—that it can make even audiences feel a little dizzy. Althugh they ccasinally fall dwn upn landing, figure skaters mstly spin thrugh the air withut lsing their balance. That’s because they have cnditined their bdies and brains t stp that dizzying feeling.
Kathleen Cullen, a prfessr at Jhns Hpkins University, studies the vestibular (前庭的) system, which is respnsible fr ur sense f balance and mtin, and says spinning withut falling frm dizziness is an art perfected ver time. At the start f their careers, skaters and ther athletes feel dizzy when they spin arund. But ultimately, they train their brains t better interpret that feeling.
“Smething really fundamental happens in the brain f peple like dancers r skaters ver lts f practice. And that’s basically a change in the way the brain is prcessing infrmatin,” Cullen says. “When yu spin arund, yu’re activating the semicircular canals (半规管). They’re filled with liquid and they’re sensing yur circular mvement. But when yu stp, the liquid has inertia and it tends t cntinue t mve. They get a false sensatin f mvement. Over years f training, figure skaters’ brains have adapted and learned t ignre this errr.”
Athletes als learn ways t reduce their dizziness. Fr example, fcusing n a fixed reference r mtinless bject minimizes dizziness and lss f balance. “Ballet dancers ften mve their heads arund during each turn t fixate n a visual reference. Similarly, at the end f the spin, athletes will fcus n a specific spt n the wall t prvide a fixed reference,” Cullen says.
“The brain and the inner ear are in cnstant cmmunicatin with the bdy and ne anther t achieve balance,” says Brigid Dwyer, an assistant prfessr f neurlgy at Bstn University Schl f Medicine. “Fr mst peple, hwever, dizziness is nly a ptential issue during faster and mre frceful activities,” Dwyer says. “Amazingly, when needed, ur brains can be well adapted t the dizzying tasks we encunter.”
28. Why d figure skaters hardly feel dizzy after spinning in the air?
A. They can maintain the balance well.
B. They are in gd physical cnditin.
C. They have trained lng perids fr that.
D. They are gifted at cntrlling their brain
29. What des the underlined wrd “inertia” in Paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. The frce t make an bject mve faster.
B. The frce t get an bject t start mving.
C. The nature t change an bject’s riginal state.
D. The nature t remain an bject’s riginal state.
30. What des Paragraph 3 fcus n?
A. Scientific analyses.B. Helpful perceptin.
C. Practical examples.D. Amazing utcme.
31. What des Brigid Dwyer seem t tell us in the last paragraph?
A. Dizziness exists in many dynamic activities.
B. The brain can cmmunicate with inner ears.
C. Cmmunicatin is vital t keeping balance.
D. The brain can be used t dizziness ver time.
D
“Ging wireless is the future fr just abut everything!” That is a qute frm scientist Sreekanth Chalasani, and we can’t help but agree. Realizing this, a team f scientists has made a breakthrugh tward wirelessly cntrlling human cells using sund, in a technique called “sngenetics (声遗传学).” This cncept may seem strange but let us explain.
Basically, the term “sngenetics” means using ultrasund (超声波) t change the behavir f cells in a nn-invasive manner. “We already knw that ultrasund is safe, and that it can g thrugh bne, muscle and ther tissues, making it the ultimate tl fr cntrlling cells deep in the bdy,” says Chalasani.
Lw-frequency ultrasund waves can target a particular prtein that is sensitive t the signal. This research, published in Nature Cmmunicatins, fcused n TRPA1. When this prtein is stimulated thrugh the ultrasund waves, it als stimulates the cells which carry it. What type f cell is being stimulated depends n the utcme. Fr example, a muscle cell may cntract with stimulatin, r a neurn (神经元) in the brain will fire. In this experiment, scientists genetically marked cells with an increased cncentratin f TRPA1, making them the key targets f the ultrasund waves.
Currently, treating cnditins like Parkinsn’s disease requires scientists t implant electrdes (电极) in the brain which stimulate certain disrdered cells. Researchers hpe that sngenetics can ne day replace these invasive treatments.
In the future, the team wants t adjust the placement and amunt f TRPAI arund the bdy using the gene treatment. Gene delivery techniques have already been shwn t be successful in humans, such as in treating blindness. Therefre, it’s just a case f adjusting this thery t a different sund-based setting.
“Gene delivery techniques already exist fr getting a new gene—such as TRPA1—int the human heart,” Chalasani says. “If we can then use an external ultrasund device t activate thse cells, that culd really change pacemakers.” There is still a while t g befre this treatment can becme a reality. The future fr sngenetics, thugh, lks bright.
32. What’s wrking principle fr sngenetics?
A. Using medicine interventinal therapies.
B. Changing cells’ shape with new equipment.
C. Cntrlling cells in a nn-invasive manner.
D. Using a kind f unique medical cmpsitin.
33. What did the scientists d in the experiment?
A. Change the cncentratin f the prtein.
B. Find target cells fr treatment precisely.
C. Analyze the prtein sensitive t the sign.
D. Chse the type f cell t be stimulated.
34. What can we learn abut sngenetics frm Paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. It can be applied t ther fields besides medicine.
B. It may replace sme traditinal medical therapies.
C. It will ttally transfrm gene delivery techniques.
D. It has succeeded in curing diseases like blindness.
35. What’s the best title fr the text?
A. Can cells be cntrlled by sund?
B. Hw is sngenetics clinically used?
C. Are gene delivery techniques available?
D. What are applicatins f sngenetics?

There are thusands f incredible trails that allw us t get up clse t nature and here are 4 f the best hiking trails in the wrld.
Pennine Way, the United Kingdm
Stretching 268 miles frm the Derbyshire Peak District t the Scttish Brders, the Pennine Way is the United Kingdm’s mst famus lng-distance path. The entire walk takes arund three weeks, passing ver wild east f Manchester and thrugh the picturesque Yrkshire Dales, befre crssing the ancient brder f Hadrian’s Wall and mving n tward Sctland.
Camin de Santiag de Cmpstela, Spain

I’m 52, and as surprising as it may seem. I’m a gymnast. In a sprt fr yung girls, I have fund an unlikely path t jy. When I enter the gym, n matter hw much stress I might be feeling, my mind clears and I frget my life. I think f nthing but what I am ding.
When I was 9, I went every Saturday t a gymnastic academy. The cach had gray hair and wre ballet shes and had bundless enthusiasm. He wuld say, “Yu are ging t be a gymnast.” And I believed him. I vividly remember the first time I did a rundff back handspring by myself, the weightlessness f it. I lived fr Saturday mrnings. I nly ever did gymnastics recreatinally—I didn’t even knw real gyms existed—but I always lved it.
That lng drmant (蛰伏的) lve came raring back in my frties. It happened in an instant, at parents’ day fr my daughter’s beginning gymnastics class. The bars were just sitting there, and I had this verwhelming urge t grab hld and swing. But I culdn’t make it thrugh the warmup (热身运动) at the first adult class I went. I felt bad during cnditining. I was the ldest persn there. But that spark f memry glwed with pssibility. I went back t class again, and again. It was hard and it was humbling. But sn I was ding back handsprings like I used t.
There is nthing like the thrill f getting a new skill, that cmbinatin f speed, mechanics, timing, muscles, guts. There is an ineffable (不可言喻的) element, t, smething like faith. By the time we reach middle age, mst f us have had t deal with ur fair share f unwelcme surprises, like illness, family crisis r the death f a belved parent. But gymnastics has brught the mst delightful surprises-I keep getting better, surpassing what I thught were limits, amazing myself by what I can d. At a time in life when many things feel like they are sliding dwn the slpe twards ld, gymnastics is a gift f fluency and cmpetence in mtin. I’m in the best shape f my life. I’m a better gymnast nw than I was at 16.
24. What inspired the authr t lve gymnastics when she was yung?
A. Her Saturday rutine.B. The cach’s enthusiasm.
C. Her wish t be a gymnast.D. Pleasure frm gymnastics.
25. What made the authr g back t gymnastic classes in her frties?
A. Her duty as a respnsible parent.
B. The desire t fit in with her daughter.
C. The strng urge t play with the bars.
D. Her sweet memry f ding gymnastics.
26. Which f the fllwing can describe the authr’s persnality?
A. Faithful and easyging.B. Humble and cmpetent.
C. Passinate and persistent.D. Ambitius and cnsiderate.
27. What des the text mainly talk abut?

Tp figure skaters spin at such unbelievably fast speeds—as many as six revlutins per secnd—that it can make even audiences feel a little dizzy. Althugh they ccasinally fall dwn upn landing, figure skaters mstly spin thrugh the air withut lsing their balance. That’s because they have cnditined their bdies and brains t stp that dizzying feeling.
Kathleen Cullen, a prfessr at Jhns Hpkins University, studies the vestibular (前庭的) system, which is respnsible fr ur sense f balance and mtin, and says spinning withut falling frm dizziness is an art perfected ver time. At the start f their careers, skaters and ther athletes feel dizzy when they spin arund. But ultimately, they train their brains t better interpret that feeling.
“Smething really fundamental happens in the brain f peple like dancers r skaters ver lts f practice. And that’s basically a change in the way the brain is prcessing infrmatin,” Cullen says. “When yu spin arund, yu’re activating the semicircular canals (半规管). They’re filled with liquid and they’re sensing yur circular mvement. But when yu stp, the liquid has inertia and it tends t cntinue t mve. They get a false sensatin f mvement. Over years f training, figure skaters’ brains have adapted and learned t ignre this errr.”
Athletes als learn ways t reduce their dizziness. Fr example, fcusing n a fixed reference r mtinless bject minimizes dizziness and lss f balance. “Ballet dancers ften mve their heads arund during each turn t fixate n a visual reference. Similarly, at the end f the spin, athletes will fcus n a specific spt n the wall t prvide a fixed reference,” Cullen says.
“The brain and the inner ear are in cnstant cmmunicatin with the bdy and ne anther t achieve balance,” says Brigid Dwyer, an assistant prfessr f neurlgy at Bstn University Schl f Medicine. “Fr mst peple, hwever, dizziness is nly a ptential issue during faster and mre frceful activities,” Dwyer says. “Amazingly, when needed, ur brains can be well adapted t the dizzying tasks we encunter.”
28. Why d figure skaters hardly feel dizzy after spinning in the air?
A. They can maintain the balance well.
B. They are in gd physical cnditin.
C. They have trained lng perids fr that.
D. They are gifted at cntrlling their brain
29. What des the underlined wrd “inertia” in Paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. The frce t make an bject mve faster.
B. The frce t get an bject t start mving.
C. The nature t change an bject’s riginal state.
D. The nature t remain an bject’s riginal state.
30. What des Paragraph 3 fcus n?
A. Scientific analyses.B. Helpful perceptin.
C. Practical examples.D. Amazing utcme.
31. What des Brigid Dwyer seem t tell us in the last paragraph?
A. Dizziness exists in many dynamic activities.
B. The brain can cmmunicate with inner ears.
C. Cmmunicatin is vital t keeping balance.
D. The brain can be used t dizziness ver time.

“Ging wireless is the future fr just abut everything!” That is a qute frm scientist Sreekanth Chalasani, and we can’t help but agree. Realizing this, a team f scientists has made a breakthrugh tward wirelessly cntrlling human cells using sund, in a technique called “sngenetics (声遗传学).” This cncept may seem strange but let us explain.
Basically, the term “sngenetics” means using ultrasund (超声波) t change the behavir f cells in a nn-invasive manner. “We already knw that ultrasund is safe, and that it can g thrugh bne, muscle and ther tissues, making it the ultimate tl fr cntrlling cells deep in the bdy,” says Chalasani.
Lw-frequency ultrasund waves can target a particular prtein that is sensitive t the signal. This research, published in Nature Cmmunicatins, fcused n TRPA1. When this prtein is stimulated thrugh the ultrasund waves, it als stimulates the cells which carry it. What type f cell is being stimulated depends n the utcme. Fr example, a muscle cell may cntract with stimulatin, r a neurn (神经元) in the brain will fire. In this experiment, scientists genetically marked cells with an increased cncentratin f TRPA1, making them the key targets f the ultrasund waves.
Currently, treating cnditins like Parkinsn’s disease requires scientists t implant electrdes (电极) in the brain which stimulate certain disrdered cells. Researchers hpe that sngenetics can ne day replace these invasive treatments.
In the future, the team wants t adjust the placement and amunt f TRPAI arund the bdy using the gene treatment. Gene delivery techniques have already been shwn t be successful in humans, such as in treating blindness. Therefre, it’s just a case f adjusting this thery t a different sund-based setting.
“Gene delivery techniques already exist fr getting a new gene—such as TRPA1—int the human heart,” Chalasani says. “If we can then use an external ultrasund device t activate thse cells, that culd really change pacemakers.” There is still a while t g befre this treatment can becme a reality. The future fr sngenetics, thugh, lks bright.
32. What’s wrking principle fr sngenetics?
A. Using medicine interventinal therapies.
B. Changing cells’ shape with new equipment.
C. Cntrlling cells in a nn-invasive manner.
D. Using a kind f unique medical cmpsitin.
33. What did the scientists d in the experiment?
A. Change the cncentratin f the prtein.
B. Find target cells fr treatment precisely.
C. Analyze the prtein sensitive t the sign.
D. Chse the type f cell t be stimulated.
34. What can we learn abut sngenetics frm Paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. It can be applied t ther fields besides medicine.
B. It may replace sme traditinal medical therapies.
C. It will ttally transfrm gene delivery techniques.
D. It has succeeded in curing diseases like blindness.
35. What’s the best title fr the text?
A. Can cells be cntrlled by sund?
B. Hw is sngenetics clinically used?
C. Are gene delivery techniques available?
D. What are applicatins f sngenetics?
