How to watch Cubs and White Sox exhibition games?

Want to watch the Chicago Cubs and White Sox （two baseball teams） "summer camp" exhibitions? Here's what you need to know.  

When do the Cubs and White Sox play?

The teams are scheduled to play practice games against each other at 7:05 p. m. Sunday at Wrigley Field and at 7:10 p. m. Monday at Guaranteed Rate Field.

On Wednesday night, the Cubs host the Minnesota Twins at 6:05 and the Sox welcome the Milwaukee Brewers at 7：10 as a prelude（前奏） to season openers set for next Friday.

What channels will the Cubs and White Sox be on?

If you live in the Cubs TV market, you'll find their games on Marquee Sports Network, its app and website, assuming you subscribe to a cable, satellite or streaming service that has a carriage arrangement （转播权）with the new channel.

Sox games are on NBC Sports Chicago, its app and website if you have a servicethat has a carriage arrangement. Both channels will hnave both Cubs-Sox exhibitions. Although they will be blacked out inside the Chicago TV market and the Indiana TV market, ESPN also will carry Sunday's Cubs-Sox rehearsal and MLB Network will have Wednesday's Twins-Cubs battle.

Where will announcers（播音员）call the games from？

ESPN's Jon Sciambi, Chipper Jones and Rick Sutcliffe （who's an occasional Marquee contributor） will work Sunday's game remotely from their homes the way the network has handled its coverage of South Korean ball games.

NBC Sports Chicago's Jason Benetti and Steve Stone will announce all of the Sox games, including Sunday's at Wrigley, from their booth setup at Guaranteed Rate Field, as they will all season regardless of where the games are played. Ditto for Marquee's Len Kasper and Jim Deshaies working at Wrigley Field regardless of where the Cubs are.

The home team's TV crew will be responsible for producing a videotape everyone can share. So games from Wrigley will be produced by Marquee and games from Guaranteed Rate Field will be produced by NBC Sports Chicago.

Orion Jean is a kid on a mission. His goal is to spread kindness and inspire others to do the same.

It all started last year when Orion's elementary school teacher suggested that the then 9-year-old enter the National Kindness Speech Contest. “I decided that I was just going to give it a shot and see how it would go, ” Orion tells us. He gave a speech about how kindness could “change a nation, ” and won the competition, receiving a $500 cash prize.

He quickly realized he wasn't going to use all of that money. “I'm a kid, ” he says, “I have everything that I could ever want. But there are people who don't. ”

Orion, who says his parents always taught him that “kindness is a virtue that we should all try to possess, ” came up with the idea of the Race to Kindness campaign - a series of events to help others. Orion describes the campaign as “just an idea where I would spread kindness and people would be able to join the race by spreading kindness in their own communities. ” He decided to start by helping children with health problems in the hospital, saying, “What better way to amuse a kid than a toy?” So, he used his winnings to buy as many toys as possible and launched a toy fair to gather more. He collected over 600 toys, which were donated to the Children's Health Hospital in Dallas in 2021.

But Orion was just getting started. After the toy fair, he launched an ambitious "Race to 100, 000 meals” to help food-insecure people in his community. Race to Kindness partnered with a local nonprofit organization to help get 100, 000 meals donated and to feed people who might not have had a meal for Thanksgiving. The result? “We were able to not only reach but also surpass our goal of 100, 000 meals, ” he says.

In May 2022, the kindness activist decided to launch “Race to 500, 000 Books” to help families who couldn't afford books or live in “book deserts”. When asked why he thinks of books, “I'm a huge book fan, ” Orion shares, “and studies show that children who have books in their homes do better academically. ”

24. What does the underlined words “give it a shot” mean in Paragraph 2?

A. Have a try.

B. Give a hand.

C. Get a big head.

D. Have second thoughts.

25. What helps Orion bring about the idea of the Race to Kindness campaign?

A. His great passion for racing.

B. His unused toys all over the place.

C. Family education from his childhood.

D. Heartbreaking scenes in the hospital.

26. Which of the following can best describe the young boy Orion?

A. Creative and childish.

B. Kind and straightforward.

C. Easy-going and sympathetic.

D. Generous and enterprising.

27. What is most likely to be discussed in the following paragraph of the passage?

A. How the studies affect academic performance.

C. Orion's future career planning after his graduation.

D. The achievement of the Race to 500, 000 Books campaign.

A team of researchers from several institutions in the UK and one in Estonia has created a type of buoy（浮标）that has proven to be effective at frightening seabirds, thus preventing them from getting caught in gillnets - a type of vertical fishing net that is made of a material that makes it nearly invisible underwater.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gillnets. Some estimates suggest that up to a half-million birds are caught in them each year. Over the years, researchers have created devices to prevent the birds from trying to catch fish near or in gillnets, but those didn't work well.

To find a way that would work for all seabirds, the researchers first studied seabirds in a general sense, looking to find things that they would avoid. They noted that seabirds avoided eye contact with other creatures. Then the researchers came up with a simple idea - they put a small pole to a regular buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes（金鱼眼） to the top of it. They made the eyes big enough so that even birds with poor eyesight, such as geese, would see them. Adding to the effectiveness of the device, waves made the eyes move back and forth. And the wind made the buoy spin very slowly, making sure that birds from every direction would get a good look at the eyes.

To test their idea, the researchers selected several sites near gillnets and counted how many birds approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then set up their googly-eyed buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62 days, they found the number of birds that tried to catch fish near the gillnets dropped by approximately 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters. They also found that the birds were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three weeks after they had been removed.

28. What is the function of Paragraph 2?

A. Introducing a new topic to discuss.

B. Providing background information.

C. Summarizing the previous paragraph.

D. Pointing out the main idea of the text.

29. Why did the researchers make the googly eyes big?

A. To clearly observe seabirds' eye contact.

B. To ensure all the seabirds can see them.

C. To effectively identify the right direction.

D. To allow them to survive the strong wind.

30. What does the researchers' test result mainly suggest?

A. The new device still needs improving.

B. Gillnets are a death valley for seabirds.

C. The googly-eyed buoy proves effective.

D. Seabirds hardly catch fish near the nets.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A. A device keeping seabirds safe from gillnets.

B. A way to help seabirds catch fish effectively.

C. A googly-eyed buoy guiding seabirds to hunt.

D. A group of researchers interested in seabirds.

D

Even though people have been disabled playing sports like rugby and football, extreme sports take the whole ordeal （磨难） to the next level. Sports like downhill cycling are very dangerous because one would be going downhill, over rocky or dirt zones, through forests, even at potentially deadly speeds. A slip-up could be your downfall.

Nobody who gets into extreme sports goes with the desire to do harm to themselves. With that, athletes train for years and years before they attempt anything extreme. To most people, extreme sports are extreme simply because they take more skill than what an average person has. An athlete with skill and training makes an extreme thing become a daily routine, which does not wipe out the danger, but greatly reduces it.

Even when there is a lot of skill involved, things might not go the athlete's way, not at all. Luck and circumstances have a lot to do with how things develop, whether above 8, 000 meters or in a wood, going downhill. In some places, crossing the street is an extreme sport, considering how wild traffic can get.

Some view parkour, the sports of running, jumping and climbing under, around and through buildings, as an extreme sport, while it is more of a life philosophy, where the athlete does not have to do anything remotely dangerous. Free soloing, which means climbing a rock or ice face without safety gear, is absolutely deadly, where one slip means almost certain death, depending on the height, of course. Skateboarding is relatively safe, but if you constantly find ridiculous places to practice on, like the fence of a bridge, then things can get very complicated. The extreme part depends on the athlete.

To summarize, yes, extreme sports are dangerous, but the danger depends on the athlete, their choice of sport, direction in which they take it, as well as the circumstances. Some things are out of our control, while others we can influence through exercise and healthier risk choices.

32. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding extreme sports?

A. Extreme sports differ from one another.

B. Skill matters a lot in maintaining safety.

C. Athletes' luck is a key factor that influences safety.

D. Extreme sports are more dangerous than regular sports.

33. Why are several extreme sports listed in Paragraph 4?

A. To explain danger depends on the athlete.

B. To show free soloing is the most dangerous.

C. To compare which one involves the most skill.

D. To demonstrate how to choose an extreme sport.

34. What is the author's attitude towards the danger of extreme sports?

A. Objective.

B. Doubtful.

C. Intolerant.

D. Unconcerned.

35. Which of the following is the best title of the text?

A. Do Extreme Sports Test Your Courage?

B. Why Should Extreme Sports Be Banned?

C. Are Extreme Sports Really That Dangerous?

D. Why Do We Take to Extreme Sports So Much?

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

A Special Gift

I always believe that there are certain gifts sticking in our minds for a variety of reasons.

The gift given to me that I treasured most was a doll named Patsy. I met her in a gift shop when I was nine. On holding Patsy I immediately fell in love with her and couldn't even bear to part from her. At that time, my mother noticed it and at Christmas, as I received the gift from her, I was surprised to find my dream doll in the box. From then on Patsy became my baby and I loved her dearly.

A month later, I was on my way to the cinema when I glimpsed some lovely gifts in pretty boxes through the window of the gift shop. Seeing them reminded me that my mother's birthday was a few months away. Wouldn't it be nice, I thought, if I could give her something really special, just like the gift she gave me? I stepped inside and caught sight of a beautiful dress hung on the coat stand, which I was sure my mother would like. So I asked the saleswoman its price.

The lady must have seen my disappointment when she told me how much it would cost. But she had a suggestion which immediately lifted my spirits. She took out a notebook from under the counter and wrote my name as well as the item I wanted to buy on it, and in return I paid her five cents from my six cents pocket money. It meant no candies that day but I didn't care. At the age of nine, I made my very first installment （分期付款）and felt like a grown-up. From then on, every Saturday on my way to the cinema, I went to the shop and paid a few cents which the lady dutifully recorded on her notebook.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为 150 左右；

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

The day before my mother's birthday, I paid the last two cents.

The special day finally came.
